Chapter 4

Stiles leaned down and kissed her on the cheek before getting off of her. He sat at the edge of the bed and she sat up. She grabbed his hands and their fingers interlocked. They both ended up smiling as they stared at their holding hands.

"So school and training?" asks Malia when her breathing was under control,

"Class dismissed for today."

She pressed her head to his shoulder still holding his hand and rubbing her head against him.

"That's a good girl." says Stiles in a playful tone,

"I'm not a dog." Malia remarked quickly straightening herself,

"Right you're a coyote."

She smiled but then a phone began to ring. Stiles reached over to his desk to grab his phone not letting go of Malia's hand. It was Scott calling,

"What up, Scotty." says Stiles went he answers the phone,

Malia places her other hand over her mouth and tries not to laugh to loud. Stiles glanced at her and smiled before redirecting his attention to his phone call.

"Hey I was wondering if you knew were Malia was. I went over to her house but she wasn't there. Her dad said she went out." says Scott,

"Oh yea she's here with me. She wanted me to tutor her for math so we've been studying."

"Alright just make sure she gets home safe."

Stiles smirks and looks at Malia,

"She can take care of herself, trust me."

Malia smiles at Stiles with admiration in her eyes. She takes the phone from him and ends the call. He takes it from her and puts it in his pocket.

"Guess I have to go home now."

Malia gets up and walks towards the door letting go of Stiles's hand. He gets up and walks in front of her.

"Come one I'll drive you home."

When he turns around heading down the stairs Malia grins feeling satisfied. Stiles tells his dad he's taking Malia home and he just says 'be careful'. In the beginning they drive in silence then Malia turns on the radio. The song 'Me and My Broken Heart' starts playing and Stiles quickly flashes Malia a smile before returning his attention to the road. When they arrive at her house Malia sees the porch light turned on.

"He's still up." she says sounding a bit worried,

"So, you did study, learn some new things and you can't say you didn't have fun."

"Okay then see you tomorrow."

Malia leans closer and gives Stiles a quick kiss on the lips before opening her door and heading towards her house. Stiles watches her go and she waves to him before opening the door. He waves back with a smile and she disappears inside.
