As soon as they reach the end of the garden they take a left turn to walk down the road.
"Malia you can't always be knocking out of the blue, she is becoming suspicious."
"Maybe she needs to be."
"Why would she need to be?! There is no reason for her to be!" Stiles' voices raises but he can't fight it back.
"Because..." Malia has fear in her eyes.
"Because of what." Stiles is beginning to ease up but Malia is still very tense.
"Because of this" Malia pulls Stiles towards her and kisses him.
She expected him to kiss her back.
"What are you doing?" Stiles said to her, his voice finally steady again.
"I - I thought"
"Well you thought wrong, next time you plan on doing that make sure it's in private." Stiles walks home leaving Malia standing clueless.
As soon as he reaches home he has already planned the lies in his mind.
When he opens the door everyone is gone except Lydia.
"Where is everyone?" He says to her as he wipes his feet on the porch mat.
"The question is, where were you?" Lydia has a hint of jealousy in her voice.
"Honey, she wanted to talk to me about a case so I walked down the road with her at least then I knew Isaac wouldn't listen in, I know I've forgiven him but he is only back and what if he is just hear to try get pieces of information."
Lydia nods her head and Stiles sits beside her.
Stiles palms begin to sweat, this is always the side effect of when he lies to the people he loves.
She places her head on his shoulders and they sit in silence.
The night goes by slowly but they drift off very fast.
When the house alarm wakes them up, the sound buzzing through their ears, Stiles runs over to turn it off but it has been hijacked.
Stiles calls the security system right away but they said "I'm
sorry sir but since it is early in the morning there are very few workers. We will send someone to your home within the hour." The phone hangs up so Stiles has no opportunity to think of an argument.
"I wonder how this happened" Lydia says as she wipes the sleep out of her eyes.
Even when she is half asleep she is beautiful.
"We'll find out" Stiles says as he begins to stretch his arms behind his head.
The noise of the house alarm rings through their ears but luckily it doesn't take the security system workers long to get here.
'The security system men workers' were what Lydia always called them, she didn't know their professional name.
The security system men workers came to Stiles after fixing the alarm and explained to him the situation that could have happened but first they would need to check around the house for signs of theft and breaking in and entering.
Stiles interrupted the security system men workers by explaining how they should stick to their job and he'll stick to his.
Soon it is time for Stiles to go to the office for work, he refuses to leave Lydia alone so she joins him.
'Maybe it was Malia trying to fool with us, maybe it was Isaac he is only back and none of us know wether he is telling the truth as to why he returned' Stiles is trying to figure this situation in his mind.
