Scott ran a hand through his hair as he sat on his bed, letting out a big sigh. The events that had occurred just moments before had his wolf on the edge, and he was worried that the wrong move would make him snap.

It's been a few days since Elliot has first shifted and everyone was doing their best to try and bring her memories back. But it didn't seem they would be back anytime soon. Elliot has been spending most of her time with her parents, Lydia and Allison seem to be the only ones they allowed inside.

Stiles was home filling in their friend Malia, who has just returned from searching for her mother. But she was a bit on edge on what she had found, so Scott was pretty sure they wouldn't be seeing her anytime soon.

Derek and Peter left to go find the Salvatore brothers in Virginia. They may not be back for another week or so. Dean suggested contacting the Mikaelsons but was then reminded that Elliot's 'aunt' Midnight Gilbert was the mate of Elijah Mikaelson. Willow didn't particularly feel like dying a second time.

A knock interrupted Scott's thoughts, the brunet looking up to see his mother at the door with a sad smile. Scott gave her an irritated look, before looking away, his hands clasped on his lap. Melissa sighed as she leaned on the doorway.

"You know I'm only looking out for you," she told him, crossing her arms over her chest. Scott let out a breath before relaxing a bit.

"I know, Mom. It's just... my instincts are telling me that you're wrong-- so very wrong. I will try, Mom. For you. But I'm afraid that... I might lose control," Scott trailed off to a whisper, not taking his eyes off of the floor.

Melissa walked over and sat beside him. She wrapped an arm around him and pulled her into her chest, Scott leaning his head against her shoulder.

"I'm sure she's an amazing girl, Honey," Melissa told him, "I just don't want to see you get hurt. You had things going so well for you. Imagine how I feel when this girl comes to town and things start getting worse for you."

Scott nodded, understanding her point of view. But he also knew that despite both of their best efforts, he will not be able to stay away from Elliot.

~~~A few minutes ago~~~

Scott has just arrived home, closing the door behind him. He had gone to visit Elliot, but Lydia and Allison refused to let her downstairs to see him. Something about how Elliot must experience the comfort of friends before boyfriends.

"Scott."

Scott looked up to see his mother standing in the doorway of the kitchen in her scrubs. She must have just gotten home from work. Next to her was someone he was the most awkward to see. Kira.

Scott looked at them both as he placed his helmet down. "What's going on?"

Kira and Melissa gave each other a glance, before Melissa walked forward, ringing her hands. She only did so when she was nervous.

"I thought you and Kira could talk. Try to get past this obstacle between you two," Melissa explained. Scott looked at her confused.
