Chapter Seven: The Benefactor pt. 3

The next morning, Emma woke up extremely tired. She was running on 4 hours of sleep and a big cup of coffee.

She took 30 minutes tops to get ready and walked out the door and into her car.

She got to school with 5 minutes remaining and walked over to mason who just got off the bus.

"Hey Mason!"

"Hey Emma what's- Hey, Liam why weren't you on the bus?" Mason stopped talking to Emma and began talking to Liam.

Liam had just sprinted towards the two like he had been running a marathon.

Liam panted. "I-I ran."

"You ran?" Emma asked.

"3 miles to school?" Mason interrogated.

"I-I just started running." Emma couldn't tell if Liam was panicking or still out of breath from running.

"Guess your leg's okay." Mason pointed out. His eyes glaze over to the bandage on Liam's left arm. "What happened to your arm?"

The bite! Emma thought to herself.

Liam didn't answer. Instead, he started panting, almost like he was having a panic attack.

"Liam? Liam are you okay?" Emma asked. She moved closer to him and touched his shoulder in attempt to calm him down.

Liam looked up at the beacon hills high sign, just as Scott was walking away.

"I-I'll talk to you later. I-I got to get to class." Liam walked off, dragging Emma with him.

"Liam? Liam where are we going?" Emma was being dragged, quite literally, towards the boys locker room.

Emma turned around to see Scott hot on their heel. She turned back around to see Stiles on the other side of them.

"Liam! Hey!" Stiles shouted.

"We need to talk." Scott was right next to them now.

Liam pushed Emma behind him in a protective manner. "No you need to back the hell up okay? Both of you!"

"Can you just listen for one second? Please?" Scott begged.

Liam nodded his head as Emma tightened her grip around Liam's arm.

"Liam, we're brothers now." Scott started off.

Emma couldn't help but laugh.

Liam glared at Scott, a confused look on his face. "What?"

"Oh god thats-" Stiles was cut off by Liam.

"What are you talking about?! We just met and you bit me!"

"The bite... the bite is a gift." Scott looked more confused than Liam did.

Stiles walked towards Scott, pointing at Liam. "Scott, stop. Please stop! You- you- you, we're trying to help you, you little runt."

"By kidnapping me?" "By kidnapping him?" Emma and Liam said at the same time.

"Emma?! I thought you're on our side!" Stiles whined. "And just to clarify, Scott kidnapped you, okay? I aided and abetted."

Scott rolled his eyes. "Liam, I've gone through this before. Somethings happening to you, something big."

Liam shook his head in denial. " nothing is happening to me." He ripped off his bandage around his arm. "Nothing!"

Emma and the two boys looked over at the none existing bite that was previously on Liam's arm.

This time, Liam walked off with out Emma by his side.

"Well that went well, don't you think?"
