STRONGER ☉ S. STILINSKI [ 4 ]

Three ~ Sacred

"Scott's going to find Peter. And we're supposed to meet Stiles at Scott's house after we've dropped Brianna off at work." Kira recapped to Lydia.

"That sounds like a horrible plan. But we've had worse." Lydia mused.

Brianna rose an eyebrow, "Like yesterday in Mexico?" She laughed half heartedly at the thought of her lovely reunion with Stiles in which she insulted his plan.

"About that." Kira sighed, keeping her eyes fixed on Lydia. "Remember how we were in the club and you and Scott were tied up to electrified cables?"

So, on the way back from picking up baby Derek, Scott, Kira and Lydia explained their experiences in Mexico. While Brianna was teaching Malia how to use her abilities, they were going through some difficulties of their own. But it turns out Malia was right about them nearly killing Scott.

Araya had strapped both Lydia and Scott onto chairs. When Scott wouldn't answer a question Kira was forced to turn one of the dials up that would send electricity to one of them. Obviously she had to choose Scott since he would heal and Lydia wouldn't. Kira seemed pretty distant during the conversation though, Brianna guessed she felt bad.

"Vividly." Lydia replied.

"I know. I guess what I'm trying to ask is ... if my hand was on the dial connected to you and I had to turn it up to ten..." Kira began.

"Would I be angry?"

Kira nodded at Lydia's question, "Yeah."

"No." Lydia started. "Because I knew you had no choice. Exactly like Scott knows. And if you're worried about him, just remember, you're a Katana-wielding, badass Kitsune." Lydia pep-talked her, making Kira giggle slightly. "And he couldn't be more into you."

As soon as Lydia had finished her pep talk with Lydia she turned to face the backseat. Not only did Brianna have her feet up on the chair - ignoring Lydia's golden rule - she was twirling her blonde locks around her finger. Something that Lydia knew she only did when she was upset or avoiding something. Though, Brianna avoiding something does end up in her being sad.

"What's up with you?" Lydia questioned after a pitiful sigh. A moment of silence passed until Brianna propped her head up, finally realising that Lydia was no longer talking to Kira. The blonde pursed her lips and shrugged. "As much as that was helpful, I may need actual words of I'm going to help you."

"I don't want help," Brianna stated simply.

Kira and Lydia shared knowing looks before climbing out of the car. At first Brianna thought they'd finally gone to fill up Lydia's tank until she saw that her tank was already full. The blonde furrowed her eyebrows but before she could call out to them about that fact both feet doors flung open and the two girls slid into the seats next to her.

"As much as I want us three to be close I meant as friends." Brianna joked.

"We wanted to talk to you but we knew that if we brought up a certain somebody you'd run the other mile," Lydia started.

"But this way you can't go anywhere." Kira finished with a proud smile.

Brianna rolled her eyes, "If you two weren't my friends I would've filed a restraining order a long time ago."

"Too bad we are your friends." Her best friend, the one the only Lydia Martin, smirked at her. She clapped to sound the alarm that they were getting ready to talk now. "So I'm going to take a guess and say this is about Stiles-"

"No."

"-And Malia." Lydia finished, ignoring the interruption from Brianna.

"No." Brianna dragged out the 'o' to exaggerate her point. She did not want to talk about that. "If you don't hurry up and drive me to work I'm going to miss my shift."
