The next door neighbor

Ch 7: The First Strike

It was a teacher student work day the same weekend of the formal, so Allison spent the night at Lydia's Sunday night, and talked about how amazing the formal was.

"Oh my God I will never get over Coach Finstock's dancing." Allison said. Lydia giggled at the memory. "Yeah I didn't know he had it in him. Who knew he was a major Def Leppard fan?" Lydia said. "Alright enough about coach I wanna here about what happened between you and Stiles that night." Allison said. Lydia looked down at her bed and lightly blushed. "Nothing really happened honestly." Lydia said.

Allison didn't believe her for one second. "Oh really? Because from what I heard, you and Stiles had a little bonding thing going on during your date. Or at least that's what Scott told me." Allison said. "I'm serious Allison, nothing major really happened at the parking lot, and it wasn't even a date. All we did was talk about things we both liked and agreed about and drank a little vodka on top of his Jeep that's all." Lydia said.

Allison smiled and giggled a bit at Lydia's ignorance. Lydia made a confused face at Allison. "What's so funny?" Lydia asked. "Oh poor Lydia. That is the definition of a date." Allison said. Lydia was about to protest, but she realized that that's what people do on dates. They go out somewhere usually private and talk.

"Oh my God, I went on a date with Stiles Stilinski." Lydia said mostly to herself. "Yep, and I bet you liked it." Allison said nodding her head. "Oh shut up Argent." Lydia said. She would never admit it in front of Allison, but she secretly had a good time. Allison got a text message from Scott and read it. She smiled at her phone. "What did lover boy say?" Lydia teased.

"He asked if we wanted to hang out today and bowl. You in?" Allison said. Lydia was thinking about it for a second. "Oh and Stiles will be there." Allison said with a smug face. "Is that supposed to persuade me to go?" Lydia said. Allison shrugged. "I was thinking it would." Lydia rolled her eyes. "Okay fine, I guess I'll go, but I'm going cuz I want to not because Stilinski will be there." Allison rolled her eyes this time. "Sure whatever you say Martin." Allison said and resumed texting Scott.

Stiles eyes began to open very slowly. That darn sun just continues to wake him up early on weekends. When he sat up and rubbed his eyes, he automatically smelt the smell of weed near him. "Aw damnit I should've known better than to smoke 4 grams in here." He said to himself. (Now you know why his eyes were red back in chapter 4) His dad was never really around, so he has plenty of time to do bad deeds and clean up as if it never happened.

While Stiles was spraying his room, he heard his phone buzz. He checked it and realized it was from Scott. "Do you wanna go bowling around 6? Lydia will be there😚." Scott said. Stiles rolled his eyes at the last sentence. "Ha ha very funny oh and the stupid emoji was a nice touch real mature of you McCall." Stiles texted back. "Don't even act like you don't like her; I know you too well." Scott texted. It was true Scott knew him way to well. "Whatever I'll be there, but I have to do something with Donovan first." Stiles said. "Okay be safe bye." Scott said.

Not that much later, he got a text message from Donovan.
D: "Do you have the money?"
S: "Uh not right now, but I promise you that I will definitely have it by the end of the month."
D: "You're overdue and we're getting impatient. Times ticking Stilinski, and you know what happens when we get mad."
S: "Yeah I know I know trust me I remember what happened to the first guy."
D: "If you don't give me at least 50 by 7 tonight, we're coming for you."
S: "I said don't worry I'll have it."
D: "We'll be waiting Stilinski."

Stiles erased the message and tossed his phone aside. He didn't have $50 on him right now, and he really didn't wanna ask for money. "Damnit!" He said and kicked a chair in front of him.
