Blue eyes [Teen wolf/Derek Hale]

Ch36 - Lydia

Dedicated to JustBooks8 for being absolutely awesome and making me fangirl in front of a bunch of strangers on a train.

It was a whole new experience...

Stiles's POV

It was silent in the car on our way to Allison's house. Everyone was lost in thoughts until Scott spoke up.

"I told you that there was something off about Liz. She's a werewolf!"

"Hey, we don't know the entire story yet. Maybe... maybe it wasn't her fault." I tried desperately. I just couldn't believe it. I'd known Liz for years. Why wouldn't she tell me? She knows that I wouldn't freak out about it, I'd find it cool.

"I'm just saying that you might need to be a little more careful with her. You barely know her."

"That's not true. I know Liz. She has a valid reason for this." I stated. She must have some sort of reason...

"Guys, we should just focus on getting the beastiary." Allison brought in. We both silently agreed to disagree.

~~**~~**~~**~~

"Okay so: blue... midget... Does that narrow it down?" I said sarcastically.

Scott looked at me while Allison kept turning the pages. We'd already been doing this for countless minutes. 

"We have to get help. I can't translate it fast enough." Allison groaned annoyed.

"Help from who?"

"Lydia... or the school counselor..."

I thought about it. We needed their help. "We'll split up. Allison goes to Lydia and Scott goes to the counselor." I stated.

Scott and Allison stared at me.

"Then what do you do?" Scott asked.

"I go back to Liz." They stared at me with disappointment but before they could say anything I quickly said: "If you guys find anything you can call me and the news will reach them way faster."

They quietly stared at each other for a second until Allison frowned. "We only have one beastiary."

Oh right... I forgot...

"We'll just go to Lydia and if she can't translate then we'll go to the counselor. And Stiles?" Scott said.

"Yeah?"

"You're coming with us. There is nothing you can do back there. Derek and Isaac will watch over them. They'll be fine."

I huffed silently. I knew that they'd be able to protect her but I still felt like I needed to be there.

"Fine."

~~**~~**~~**~~

We called Lydia once we were in the car. She said that she was at her house. So we quickly drove to our destination.

Once we arrived at her door Scott immediately knew that something was off. He smelled some sort of weird feint smell. We approached the door and saw that it was already unlocked. We looked at each other and cautiously opened the door.

The lights were off so I had trouble keeping up with Scott. He'd mentioned that he heard two heartbeats upstairs so that was where we were heading. 

We silently sneaked up the stairs until we were in front of Lydia's room. Allison and I both looked at Scott. He was the one who could hear things with his, super amazingly awesome, werewolf powers. Scott slowly grabbed the door handle and pushed the door open in one swift movement.

He charged in but quickly stopped. Allison and I both peeked in to see why he'd stopped. Lydia and her mother were both sitting on her bed, completely freaked out. Especially Lydia's mom looked really scared.

"Heyyy... What happened here?" I asked them.

Lydia looked at me and answered "A wild animal got trapped inside the house."

"Oh really, what kind of animal?" I asked with an obvious undertone.

"We couldn't really see but it was definitely midget size." She answered with the same undertone.

It was the... thing! The thing had attacked her.

"Oh my god are you okay?" Allison and I both said.

She nodded and calmed her mom down.

"I still don't know how it even got in." her mom mumbled "And I've never seen such an animal."

"It was dark. It could've been anything." Lydia quickly said.

Lydia's mom looked at her in confusion but eventually agreed. "Yeah, I guess you're right..."

As soon as she left, we gave the beastiary to Lydia.

"So you know what it looks like?" Scott asked her.

"Vaguely but I guess good enough. Why?"

We all looked at each other. In all the fuss we kind of forgot to tell Lydia everything.

"Okay... So we have a story to tell you..." I began. "We kind of... just found out... that Liz is a werewolf. And she got attacked by that thing that also attacked you. But she got scratched by it-"

"It didn't attack me." she said.

"It didn't?" Scott asked confused.

Lydia shook her head. "No, I heard my mom scream after I hung up on you guys. I ran to the hallway and saw this blue midget thing with orange eyes. My mom rushed upstairs and ran to my room. The... thing was... searching for something, I think."

She looked at us with wide eyes. "Wait. Liz is a werewolf?"
