     Before I could comprehend the conversation between Scott and Gerard, Derek already pulled me away and pulled me out of my thoughts. "Did you know about this?" Derek sternly asked. How could I not have seen this coming? Why would Scott be teaming up with Gerard Argent? Did he tell him about me? I am so screwed if he did, even though Gerard hasn't come after me yet. "Rebekah?" Derek snapped his fingers in front of my eyes and I blinked a few times. "I didn't," I slowly said, still not completely believing it. "Why the fuck would he team up with him in the first place? What is he getting out of this?" I asked as I tried to think of reasons.

     "I don't know, but I think it is for the best if we keep this between us. For now at least," Derek said wisely. I nodded and while he left, I went into the room where Noah and Melissa were at. "Hi," I said as I gave them an awkward wave. Scott wasn't here. Strange. Melissa scooted backwards a little as I walked to them. I stopped walking and sighed. "I am not going to hurt you." From the looks they both gave me I realised they were not going to cope with this right now. "They only thing I'm asking from you is to not tell anyone about what you saw tonight." Sheriff Stilinski sighed and Melissa just shook her head. Not believing what I'm asking from them. "I'm sure they have a proper explanation for all of this, Melissa," Noah tried. "But-" Melissa gave up after a few seconds and both parents promised not to say anything. After that Noah told me to go home and that he'll try and handle the situation at the station.

     Instead of going home I went to Allison's. I really needed to talk to her about tonight and, basically, about us. I had been walking around town for a while so I hadn't had the time to change when I got to Allison's place. I rang the doorbell and waited for someone to open. It was Chris. I saw him eye my shoulder for a moment and he frowned. "Hi," I said in a soft voice and I was fidgeting. I was scared to face my girlfriend and maybe that was for a good reason. "Is Allison home?" Chris almost immediately nodded and walked away, leaving me all alone in the doorway. Not much later Chris came back with his daughter next to him.

     "Can we talk for a moment?" I pushed a strand of hair behind my ear as I waited for Allison to answer. "I don't-" Allison started but she was stopped by her father. "Go." One word. One word that caused Allison to take a deep breath and walk out of the door so we could talk. In the corner of my eyes I saw Chris smile at me right before he closed the door. "What do you want to talk about?" Allison's attitude towards me had completely changed in just a few hours. Just because Derek, a werewolf, was the one that bit her mother and because her mother is now dead. But isn't that just because of that stupid code her family has?

      I sighed and sat down on the steps in front of the frontdoor. "About tonight, what I told you happened at the rave." I whispered the words, scared for Allison's reaction. "Us," I finally said. Allison's heart beat skipped a beat. Good, she still cares. It was quiet for a moment and I thought Allison was about to go back inside, but instead, she sat herself down next to me. I felt her looking at me, sort of telling me to start talking.
