Haliegh's POV
"Okay Haliegh, I'm done. Oh and I got you something."
She pulls out a necklace that says,"H"
"Aww Lydia I love it, thank you."
"Your welcome. Let's go to school."
*****
"This is the one I was telling you about. I got it from a rare book dealer in Germany. Cost me two hundred bucks, but it was totally worth it,"Mason says.
"You're still reading about this stuff?",Liam asks.
"I was attacked by an armor-plated giant wearing a bear skull.
It left an impression. Look. Look.
Have you ever seen anything like this?"
"Uh, no,"Liam says.
"Never,"I say.
"And then there's this whole section about the Nagual. Have you ever heard of the name Tezcat Tezcatlipoca."
"No. No, never heard of him."
******AP Biology Class********
"Scott? Are you in the right class?",Kira asks.
"AP Biology,"he replies.
"Do you know what AP stands for?",Lydia says.
"Advanced Placement."
"Welcome to AP Biology. Let's see who's awake. Can somebody tell me what plasmids are?"
"Circular, self-replicating DNA molecules often used in cloning proteins."
"Nicely stated, Haliegh."
"Now, can you tell me what vitamin is absorbed in the stomach via parietal cell production of a glycoprotein?"
"Uh B-12,"Scott says.
"Mr. McCall, did you know the answer?"
"Um, no."
"It's a common test question.
What's your number one college pick?"
"Um."
"Stop saying, 'Um.'"
"Sorry."
"UC Davis."
"Good choice. It's the best school on the West Coast for biological and physical sciences. You're in the right class if that's what you're hoping for. Who else thinks they're in the right class? Good. Then you should all be prepared for the test tomorrow.
Don't be so disappointed. This test is specifically to help you determine whether you should actually be in AP Biology.
You have two weeks to drop.
Tomorrow's test will just weed out the ones who shouldn't be here."
*In the hallway with Liam and Mason*
"Look, I'm not saying I believe all of it a hundred percent, but people around us seem to know things. Like Lydia, she knows things and you, Haliegh know things."
"Dude, it's the first day at school. Shouldn't you be thinking about other things like, like the soccer team?"
"What do you think I'm going to do? Follow them out to the field and watch them practice while I pretend to study?"
"It's warm out. They'll probably be shirtless."
"I'll see you in Physics."
"Bye Mason."
I open my locker and lay my AP Biology book in it.
"Bye Liam."
"Bye Haliegh,"he says kissing my forehead.
"Nice shorts."
"Yeah, thanks. You know, I was wondering if you were still pissed off about the sixth grade, but I guess you cleared that up."
"I'm not pissed off, Liam. I'm vengeful,"I hear as I walk away.
God I just saw this girl and I already have the strong desire to kick her ass.
*in Stiles' car*
"What's a Criminal Tremor?"
"It doesn't matter."
"By the way Stiles will you take me home, we have to something first but sure."
*************
"I told you he was up to something."
"We just spent three hours watching this dude play video games in his bedroom. He better be out here covering up a mass murder."
"Let's find out."
"You still got his scent?"
"Don't need it."
"What? What's wrong?"
"I forgot, I was supposed to meet Mason at the school gym."
"Okay, why didn't you just tell him?"
"Tell him what?"
"Anything."
"I can't just tell him anything."
"Why not?"
"Because he still hasn't told him everything,"I say.
"Still? We said it was okay."
"Yeah, I know, but it's not that easy."
"It's a lot to accept."
"He watched my dad blow up a Berserker with a land mine. I think the groundwork's been pretty thoroughly laid for acceptance. Scott and I have been through this. Okay? More than once. It's always been better when they know."
"But what if he freaks out? What if he doesn't want to talk to me? What if he tries to stab me with something silver? Or what if-What the hell are you doing?"
"I wore the wrong shoes for this kind of adventure."
"I- There he is."
As we walk through the woods Stiles says,"Hurry up. Stop screwing around. Come on."
"Liam,"I say realizing he was gone.
"I just fell in a freaking hole,"he whisper yells.
"Try and get his scent. Get anything?"
"Soap. It's nice. It smells good."
"Not his soap, his emotional state. Chemosignals, remember?"
"Oh, yeah."
"Okay. I- He's sad."
"He's sad?"
"Well, not just sad It's more like grief,"I say.
"Grief? Oh, my God! Go! We have to go."
"What?",Liam asks.
"Why?", I ask.
"Go! Right now. Just go. That's the bridge where they found his sister."
"What sister?"
"The one that got lost and died from exposure. He's leaving a flower for her."
"That doesn't sound evil."
"I know."
"What you guys doing?"
Liam and I growl slightly.
"Whoa. Why do I get the feeling these kids are tougher than they look?"
"Only when we let them off their leash."
"Stiles, we were in Little League together. Why are you so suspicious of me?"
"Because of these. One's a speeding ticket signed by your dad eight years ago. The other one's a signature on a transfer form to Beacon High. They're different."
"Huh. Yeah, they do look a little different."
"No, they're totally different.
Signed by two different people."
"So my dad's not my dad? Like he's an imposter?"
"Yeah, something like that. Who do you think I am?"
"We don't know yet."
"Want me to give you a DNA sample or something?"
"No. I don't have anything from the fourth grade to match it to."
"You know, Stiles, I came back here for Scott but I also came back for you. Someone like you.
Someone who's willing to walk into the woods in the middle of the night to protect his friends.
I don't have anyone like that, but Scott does. You all do. I know I'm in the right place. I'm meant to be here. I'm meant to be part of this pack."
*************
"Find anything?",Scott asks.
"Nope,"Stiles says.
"I fell in a hole." Liam and I burst out laughing.
"It was the bridge where his sister died, wasn't it?"
"Yes, it was. Very embarrassing.
So we are gonna leave now."
"Son of a- Liam, just do me a favor, get in the car and turn the ignition when I say."
"Stiles?"
"Be with you in a sec."
"Try it."
"Stiles."
"Yes. Okay, we followed him out here. What do you want me to say? That I'm a stalker, huh? That I'm crazy, totally paranoid? None of this is new information."
"Now you're gonna try to at least give him the benefit of the doubt?"
"I give people the benefit of the doubt. I've given a lot of benefit to a lot of people."
"Like Derek? Kira? Liam?"
"I was right about Peter. Oh yeah and wasn't it you who was suspicious of Haliegh, so suspicious you wanted to fight her the first day she was here. Try it again."
"You know, I bet you still think that there's something about him that can be saved."
"Maybe."
"Try it again."
"Why can't you trust anyone?" "Because you trust everyone!"
"Are you okay?",Scott asks.
"I'm fine."
"You could've broken it."
"It's not broken."
"Let me see it."
"I'm fine."
"Let me see it."
***********
"There's a wolf right behind you."
"That's a wolf."
After we run inside the school, the wolf is about to go for Mason and we both growl loudly at it.
"There's something we have gotta tell you."
"You guys are werewolves."
It comes back at me after Liam walks partially up the stairs to talk to Mason and then proceeds to jumps me.
"Uh Liam,"Mason says.
It bites my arm and slashes at my stomach in defense and I scream,"LIAM!!!!!!!!!"
Suddenly, Liam is by my side along with Mason.
"It's okay, Haliegh. It'll be okay, I promise,"Liam says kissing my forehead,"I'm gonna take you to Deaton and have Scott meet us there."
He takes out his phone and calls Scott.
"Scott. Haliegh's hurt, I'm taking her to Deaton's can you meet me there? Okay I'll see you there. This is gonna hurt,"Liam says lifting me up.
"Ah!"
"Liam come on take her to my car."
"Haliegh come on stay with me."
"But I'm so tired, Liam. Just let me take a little nap."
"No you have to stay awake."
Mason speeds to the clinic and Scott is there with Lydia.
"Come on Haliegh, stay with me."
"Okay Liam you take her pain and I'm going to clean out her wound,"Scott says.
Liam's POV
Scott pours something onto a cotton ball and then puts it on her bloodied stomach. She cries out in pain.
"Liam come on, take her pain."
He continues to clean out her wound while I take her pain.
Scott wraps it in gauze and then says,"Take her to your house, Lydia."
"Bye Liam,"she says trying to get up, but she ends up falling,"Scott I can't walk."
"Lydia I'll go with you and carry her inside,"Scott says.
I kiss Haliegh's forehead before Scott carries her out.
Haliegh's POV
Scott puts me in Lydia's car and she drives to her house.
"Okay here we go, Haliegh,"Scott says gently lifting me up.
He carries me inside and into their guest room which is my room and lies me down on the bed.
"Goodnight Haliegh."
"Thanks Scott."
"For what?"
"For everything."
He smiles and he closes my door.***Author's Note***
Why do sunburns itch so incredibly bad after they give you sun blisters? My back itches and I can't reach to scratch it. Gahhh. I could really use a back scratcher. Lol. When someone who was your friend for ten years starts texting your actual best friends terrible things about you and gives you the nickname "izabitch" well all I can say is I didn't need you bringing me down when I've got people that are so much better than you.....
