Maya's POV

As I guide him into my trailer I see Riley with my now wide awake sister Natalie. Natalie has tears in her eyes and is holding he stuffed bear scruffy close to her chest.

"Hey bug whats wrong" as I finish my sentence Natalie comes running and hugs throws her self on to my low waist hugging me almost knocking me down. Stiles caught my fall and put his left hand on my back to support me. I look at him and he looks into my eyes. Ive fell in a trance that keeps me hooked to his light brown eyes. Im soon brought out of my trance by the crying little girl on my waist.

"Y-you left me here al-alone Maya." She sniffles between sobs. I hug her tightly and rub circles on her upper back.

"Im sorry bug, I had to check something out with Sweet Pea, I thought you wouldve stayed asleep Im sorry" I say while crouching to her level. My sister was tougher than most girls her age but she is still 7. Shes my Pride and Joy, she makes me and everyone of the serpents makes sure shes happy as well. We look after eachother, Natalie is kind hearted and unexposed and I like to keep it that way. She prefers to be called lilyPad but only on some days I give in.
My nickname on the other hand is Flower, she gave it to me, Ive loved it ever since. Everyone calls me Flower unless its something important.

"Your not going to leave me ag-again right" she says trying to calm down.

"Hey hey even if Im not in the same room or Area I'll never leave you, always be here" I point to her heart as she looks up at me with her tesr stained face. She so fragile It hurts me seeing her this way.

"And I'll always be there in your heart" she sniffles as she has her tiny hand on my heart.

I look at the time its, 5:37am. Natalie still has 2 hours until she has to wake up for school.

"LilyPad how about you go have a sleep over with Jughead and Riley for the rest of the time, before Tall Boy takes you to school."
Natalie begins jumping up and down running to her bed and collecting bear blanket. I look at Riley doing an apologetic look because I didnt ask her first. Riley just smiles and says she will see us later. Riley always liked Natalie's company, they had a close bond like Natalie and I shared.
Riley and Natalie walk out and into Jugheads tralier. With the guys still being gone that just leave Stiles and I.
I turn around once I close the door and Stiles is staring at me in awe.

"You never told me you had a sister" be says still pondering the side of me he just saw.

"Well i did just officially meet you less than an hour ago Stiles, but like I said I have people to protect." I say while yawning.

I sit down on the 3 seated couch as I begin to sink into the soft torn material I shift myself until Im comfrontable. Stiles takes a seat besides me and does the same but he shifts over and over ,way longer than I did. I stare at him in amusment.

"Having fun there" I question with sarcasim in my voice. He just smiles at me for a moment. A few moments of silence and then its broken by Stiles.

"You- uh your a completely different person here than you are at school huh?" He says in a low voice.

I shift so now im looking at him face to face.

"Yeah I gues I am, its just that- ah never mind" I say.

"No no, tell me.." Stiles says shifting torwards me so we are really staring at eachother. "Please " he says loud and playful.

"Its just that, we all get a bad name before people at school even know us. They see Serpent then your automatically a criminal or a danger person." I state. "I just give them what they expect" I sigh moments after.

It takes a moment for Stiles to say something.

"You know what I see?" He questions with a steady tired voice.

"Tell me Stiles what Do you see, huh let me hear it" I say jokingly.

"I see a girl, that is very misunderstood. Shes damaged but shes brave. Shes Reckless but to an extent and shes.. And shes beautiful." He tilts his head down as he grows nervous.

"Stiles you dont kn-" Stiles cuts me off. " Your going to say I dont know you, but The part you just showed me with your sister, that was real, the real you and that was not fake or hidden."

I feel my head tilt down as Im a mixture of sad and tired. Broken and lost, damaged. I then feel a large warm hand fall on top of mine.
It's comforting hes comforting.

Once again my minds thinking ..

Holy shit.
