Something To Think About. (Teen Wolf)

Ryder's POV

I got dressed the next morning and was ready for school by the time Stiles was just waking up. I wanted to leave before him so I could walk instead of having to ride in the car with him. Talk about awkward.

When I walked in the kitchen, the Sheriff was leaning against the counter, reading the newspaper, and drinking some coffee.

"Good morning, Sheriff." I said, getting out some orange juice.

"Morning Ryder. How did you sleep?" He asked me.

"Better than usual."

I wasn't lying. Even after last night I slept pretty well, having a dreamless night, and felt good this morning.

"That's good to hear. Well, I have to head out to work. Have a great day and don't forget to take your meds before you leave, ok?" He took his coffee to go and started heading out the door.

"Ok, I won't." I replied as he shut the door behind him. I listened as he drove off an started to get my stuff together.

Putting on my jacket, I grabbed my orange juice and a donut before grabbing my bag. As I was putting my bag on my shoulder, I heard Stiles walking into the kitchen.

He was still in his pajamas and looked as though he had gotten not a second of sleep.

"Ryder, do you need a ri-" he started, very sleepily.

"Nope, bye!" I yelled while walking away.

"Ryder you forgot-" I slammed the door before I could hear the rest of his sentence.

I was too busy hurrying out of the house trying to get away from Stiles that I forgot all about my promise to the Sheriff.

The listened to my music on my walk to school, feeling pretty good about the day ahead of me. I was about half way to the school when I saw something in the corner of my eye. I pulled out my earbuds and looked around. Seeing nothing, I kept walking.

This happened a few times when I really started to feel like I was being followed, but alas I made it to the school safe without coming to harm. I'm starting to get paranoid...

Walking up to my locker, I spotted Aiden and Ethan walking down the hall. I decided that, since I was currently furious with everyone, I would flash them a smile. They walked up and greeted me.

"Hey guys, what's up?"

The looked at each other then back at me. Ethan looked like something was wrong so Aiden spoke up first.

"Well Ryder, we were hoping to speak to you....alone." He said the last word hesitantly. I'm pretty sure, from watching movies, that that means something is wrong. A voice in the back of my mind told me not to go with them but I pushed her away, only thinking about getting back at Stiles and Isaac, and said:

"Sure!"
