SEVEN DEVILS
01; "loneliness is a disease"

RHEA ROSS STUDIED THE BUILDING in front of her with her eyes narrowed. Beacon Hills Memorial. Where her closest childhood friend happens to reside due to yet another animal attack. Rhea doesn't understand half of what has been happening in Beacon Hills within the past few months. And there isn't anything Rhea hates more than not understanding something. Rhea lets out a long sigh while taking one last glance at the building's exterior, before marching inside with her head held high, despite her ever growing dread.

There is nothing more that Rhea wants to do than to just scream in hopes of her frustration and confusion ending. She was just informed by the Martins that Lydia has jumped out her hospital room. Naked.  Yet another thing has happened that Rhea just doesn't understand. Rhea finally locates who she has been looking for, the town's sheriff. He, a nurse, and a oddly familiar teenage boy are all standing in the hallway, talking in hushed voices.

Walking up in the middle of the conversation, Rhea hears the sheriff question, "All right, let's get an APB out on a 16 - year - old redhead. Any other descriptors?"

"5'3", green eyes, fair-skinned," Rhea states while stopping in front of the trio,"and her hair is actually strawberry blonde. Lyds hates being called a redhead." The teenage boy, who Rhea deemed as cute the moment she got a good look at him, snapped his head in the direction of the other teen the moment she began speaking. With his mouth gapping, "Rhea wh-how are you doing?"

"How do you think I'm doing? My best friend is lost in the woods- might I add that she is completely naked." Rhea snaps, immediately hating her short temper with one look at the cute boys hurt expression. With a much softer tone in comparison to her last snark, she asks, "Sheriff have you found out any new information?"

"No, but we're gonna find her, don't worry." He confidently replied while placing a hand on her shoulder. After giving her a reassuring squeeze, he and the nurse leave Rhea and the other teenager alone.

While the boy tries to silently leave before he could make an even bigger fool of himself in front of his crush, Rhea stops him with a, "Hey -um- I'm sorry for how I reacted earlier. I just have a you know-short temper." Rhea has always struggled with admitting she wrong in any type of situation. Stiles (and pretty much every other resident in Beacon Hills)  already well-aware of Rhea's temper, just brushes of her apology with a wave of his hand and bright smile on his face.

"What's your name anyways?"

"Stiles."

"Stiles?" Rhea questioned while raising her eyebrows in confusion.

"Yeah. It's not my birth name- but that just way to hard to pronounce, so I go by a nickname. And you probably don't care -"

"Stiles." Rhea interrupts by murmuring his name again as if she's testing the way it rolls of her tongue. "I like it." She decides with finality and a sharp nod of her head that sends her brunette tendrils bouncing. While Stiles stands in a trance not believing the Rhea Ross not only knows who he is, but seems to be one of the few people she doesn't dislike immediately after meeting them.

Stiles, completely flustered, happened to forget about Lydia for a short while when he suddenly realizes he has (illegal) things to do.  "Hey Rhea, it's been great talking to you- really great I mean like awesome. But I gotta go. I'm not trying to ditch you-I swear- I just have plans. With my friend, Scott. I'm not sure if you know him but-"

Rhea cuts off Stiles ramble with a soft chuckle, "Go."

"Really? Okay. I'll see you."  Stiles rambled while slowly walking backwards away from Rhea while still facing her. He gave her a wide smile before he accidentally backed into a working nurse. While Rhea sniffles her giggles, Stiles fishes out an apology to the nurse while finishing the conversation with a "I'll definitely see you." Before sprinting out of the hospital.

Stiles. That's another mystery Rhea has yet to understand.

SCHOOL WITHOUT LYDIA MARTIN, was hell for Rhea Ross. The gorgeous duo always have had a timed 'dramatic' entrance (as Lydia would say) since their first day their freshman year. Now, Rhea just feels abnormally alone standing in front of the high school's entrance without her best friend by her side. The brunette beauty puts on her infamous scowl and begins to look around for Jackson. Finding his flashy car pulling in the parking lot was an easy task for Rhea.

"Jackson!" Rhea shouted across the lot which caused many eyes to look at her, but with one look at her glower, they all quickly looked away. Rhea changes her expression into a smile and rushes up to Jackson with a hug.

"Hey Ray." The blonde jock chuckled while putting his arm around Rhea's shoulders. The two began to talk when a homeless looking man interrupted with an "Nice car."

Jackson fishes a dollar out of his pocket and retorts with an, "Here's a dollar. Go find another parking lot to die in." Under his breath he asks, "Rhea? Maybe punch him in the face or something for me? He's totally eyeing my car."

Rhea just rolls her eyes thinking about how much bark and no bite Jackson is. "Come on you big baby, we're gonna be late."

"Darling, I'm no where near a baby." Jackson smirks while flexing.

Used to Jacksons flirtatious behavior (that always used to drive Lydia mad) Rhea laughs him off and pulls him into Beacon Hill's High for an expected day of hell.
