New Girl in Town (Teen Wolf)

Chapter 11

Ashlyn woke up Monday morning not feeling school that day. She was tired and didn't want to get up. All weekend, her dad argued with her about keeping Stiles and Scott as friends. Ashlyn refused to say that she was going to stay away from them. They were the first friends, besides Allison, that she had made here. She wasn't going to let them go. Also, she was talking Allison through her breakup with Scott, which gave Ashlyn a headache just thinking about it. Her door opened quietly and she lifted her head to see her mom walk in with a small smile.

"Hey sweets." Her mom said softly as she walked to the side of Ashlyn's bed.

Ashlyn just looked up at her, eyes burning from keeping them open.

"Do you want to go to school today?"

"No." Ashlyn stated.

"Do you wanna stay home another day?"

"No."

"Do you want a new car?"

Ashlyn perked up and her mom smiled slightly.

"Me too." Her mom shook her head.

Ashlyn ripped the sheets off of her and started to make her way to the bathroom.

"Look, I know your dad is trying to get you to stop seeing Scott and Stiles, and as much as I would like to think that it would be best if you stayed away from them... I just can't think that. I believe that Stiles and Scott kept you safe that night and I believe that they can keep you safe in the future. But, don't tell your father that's what I think." She winked and walked to Ashlyn's bedroom door. "But, I do have to drive out to school this morning. Your dad is here and I don't know how he would react if Stiles showed up."

Ashlyn nodded and shut the bathroom door. She took a shower then wrapped herself up in a towel to go and look for clothes. As she looked through her clothes, she decided on. Light wash skinny jeans with a mint green sweater. For shoes, she put on some light brown old fashioned style ankle boots. She added a bronze colored long owl necklace to her get up. Ashlyn walked to the bathroom and blow dried her hair. Grabbing her phone, she texted Stiles to say that he can't give her a ride this morning, then she turned on her pandora station as she did her hair and makeup.

"All my friends are heathens take it slow, wait for them to ask you who you know." Ashlyn bobbed her head as she plugged her big barreled curler in.

She out on some light foundation to hide the dark circles under her eyes. Then she put eyeliner on the bottom, and eyeliner on the top in a winged fashion. Mint green eyeshadow was put on as well. Mascara and then red lipstick was added for the finish. Ashlyn then curled her hair into big curls. That, with her thin hair, looked like big waves.

Ashlyn grabbed her bag and walked downstairs, rounding the corner to see both of her parents sitting, drinking coffee. Keeping her head down, she went and made herself a bagel. When she was done, she sat down on the other side of the bar in the kitchen and silently ate her bagel. Her phone went off and it was Stiles.

"That's a shame. I'm gonna miss my daily dose of early morning sass from you. See you at school xx"

She smiled down at her phone and responded.

"Oh, trust me. You'll get the sass when I see you. You definitely won't miss it(;"

"Who are you texting? Better not be that Stiles kid." Ashlyn's father spoke up.

"It's Allison. Calm down." Ashlyn snapped, easily lying to her dad.

"Good. You need to stay away from him and that kid, Scott."
