Me Too (completed)

Chapter nine

Isn't it messed up, how I'm just dying to be him.

Stiles agreed with Patrick Stump because whoever the hell was talking to Lydia by her locker was definitely more attractive than him. And he was jealous without a doubt. It wasn't full on "I'm going to pummel you" jealousy, but it did confuse him. Because at first he just thought it was brotherly instinct.

"What's up?" Scott had asked while opening the locker next to where Stiles leaned against his own. When there was no response, Scott followed his best friends gaze. "Earth to Stilinski, Stilinski come in." He knocked on the boys head, finally grabbing his attention.
"Sorry I just don't like that guy."
"You've never even met him."
Stiles side glances at Lydia. "Yeah but he's just giving me bad vibes."

Scott snickers at this, slamming his locker closed before taking a second look at the competition. He was curly hair and tan skin and actually a lot of things Stiles wasn't. That didn't mean Stiles wasn't better. "I'm just going to say hi."
Scott held back the boy by the handle on top of his backpack, giving him a look that said "is that really a good idea?". With a sigh, Stiles pouted and leaned up against the lockers again.

He didn't think it was really all that fair.

"Jealous?"
"No." There was an immediate response. "No I just don't like how close he's standing to her." Stiles tensed when the boys hand reached out and grazed her arm when she smiled lightly. It practically screamed sexual tension and he had no doubt mr.handsome would drive her home today. Soon as he had left, Lydia's eyes shot over to Stiles as if she had known he'd been watching the whole time. She strode across the hall to greet him.

"He's cute."
"Yeah, a real peach. Lyds I'm not going to beat him up when he crushes you, he's got muscles bigger than my head." There was the risk of death and although he loved Lydia he also did not want to die. She rolled her eyes and tugged him towards their Chem class.

Allison danced on the tips of her toes causing Lydia to shush her again as they peaked around the corner. They could hear his laugh even from halfway down the hall, see his red cheeks only because it almost always came with a nervous rub to the back of his neck.
"It's going to happen."
"Don't jinx it, Alli!!" Lydia hissed under her breath, elbowing her friend before turning back to watch.

A string tugged inside her stomach but she chose to ignore it, blaming it on the girl Stiles was currently speaking with. She'd broken his heart and if she did it again Lydia would not even think twice about breaking her face. Malia looked down to her boots, tugged at his flannel with a gentle laugh. Allison and Lydia had decided maybe it would be good for him to get a girlfriend, keep his mind off of other things. Lydia hadn't said, but she wasn't exactly sure an ex would be a good choice.

Malia says something again causing Stiles to freeze altogether before nodding frantically. She smiles and tucks a piece of hair behind her ear, giving him a hug before chucking a thumb over her shoulder and walking off shyly. He stood there for a few seconds, not even looking after her just straight ahead. And then down; his eyes met his feet with a smile on his face as he began to walk.

Stiles almost bumped into the girls.
"She wants to get back together doesn't she?" Allison questions. The boy could do nothing but allow a grin to spread over his face. He nodded. Allison gasped and went on a rant asking about details and this and that but all Stiles could focus on was how Lydia had said nothing. She almost jumped when his fingers grabbed the back of her arm tenderly.
"You're quiet." He was blunt.

There was a slight pause before she smiled as best as she could. "Contemplating life, as always." Stiles' grin grew ten times wider and they turned to go to class. Her stomach was in knots and she didn't know why.
Isn't it messed up how I'm just dying to be her.
