Two days had passed since the incident. And everyone was on high alert. Derek, Talia and his pack went out looking for Peter. While Cora, Scott and Malia held down the fort at home until they got back.
But Scott kept giving Malia weird looks but not saying a word.
And frankly it was starting to bug her.
"Scott? What's wrong?" Malia asked.
"Nothing." Scott said sadly.
"Then stop acting all mopey. It's freaking me out!" Malia said.
"I'm sorry..." Scott said softly.
"It's not a big deal. It's just you're upset about something and I can feel it so it__" Scott stopped her.
"Not just about that. I'm sorry you got hurt. It was my fault." Scott said sadly. Head down. Malia raised it.
"Hey. I wanted to get kidnapped, remember?" Malia asked sarcastically. "I was trying to keep you guys safe but that didn't work."
"I should be protecting you. The only reason those hunters were there in the first place was because they were looking for me." Scott said.
"Or maybe because they were hunters and we're werewolves? You can't put everything on your shoulders. It's stupid and it breaks your heart." Malia said. Putting a hand on his chest. "And you have a good one."
"You got hurt. Bad." Scott said sadly.
"And I healed. Fast. I'm okay. Okay?" Malia asked. Holding his face.
"Okay." Scott said touching her hands.
"You gonna stop being a freak?"
Malia asked smiling.
"Yeah." Scott laughed.
"Well good." Malia said and moved her hands but Scott locked his fingers with hers. "What?" Malia giggled.
"You're a nice person." Scott said.
"If you tell anyone, I'll kill you in your sleep." Malia threatened playfully and breaking the hold. Leaving him.That should have been the end of it.
But then...
"I have a date or whatever tomorrow night." Malia said casually to her cousin as she lay on her bed.
"With who?!" Scott demanded.
"You have a home. Go to it." Cora said.
"Silence. Who do you have this 'date' with?" Scott asked again.
"Matt Dahmer. He's in the A.V and photography club." Malia explained.
"Geeky but okay. Did you ask him or did he ask you?" Cora asked.
"Please. He asked me." Malia scoffed.
"And you just said yes?"
Scott asked annoyed.
"Yeah. He was cute and he asked. Figured, 'what the hell?'. Are you mad?" Malia asked.
"Cora has a point. I should go to my own house. Bye." Scott said and left in a huff. Leaving Malia very confused.Scott didn't talk to her the next day either. But he did listen in on her conversation with Cora about where they were going on the date.
Stalking them until he couldn't watch anymore and left. To go to her house.
Waiting on the porch.
"How was your date?" Scott asked.
"Oh now you talk to me?" Malia asked sarcastically as she walked passed him. He grabbed her hand. "What?!"
"How could you go out with that guy? He's a weirdo and..."
"And what? He's not good enough? Why are you being like this?" Malia asked agitated. "I thought we were friends." Malia's voice cracked.
"I'm not you're damn friend."
Scott yelled. Leaving her yet again.
"Malia?" Derek asked, coming out.
Malia didn't say a word and just skulked upstairs.
Cora just came home from a girl's night with Erica and Talia, when Derek told her.
She didn't speak for two weeks.
Just like last time.
