Few days later.

Stiles was in the guidance counselor's office talking to Ms. Morrell while he was messing with his lacrosse stick.

"You know when you're drowning, you don't actually inhale until right before you black out. It's called Voluntary Apnea. It's like no matter how much you're freaking out, the instinct to not let any water in, is so strong that you won't open your mouth until you feel like your head's exploding. But then when you finally do let it in, that's when it stops hurting. It's not scary anymore. It's actually kind of peaceful" Stiles said "Are you saying you hope Matt felt some peace in his last moments?" Ms. Morrell asked "I don't feel sorry for him" Stiles said "Can you feel sorry for the nine-year-old Matt who drowned?" she asked "Just because a bunch of dumbasses dragged him into a pool when he couldn't swim, doesn't really give him the right to go off killing them one by one. And by the way, my dad told me that they found a bunch of pictures of Allison on Matt's computer. And not just of her though. I mean, he photoshopped himself into these pictures. Stuff like them holding hands and kissing. You know, like he had built this whole fake relationship. So yeah, maybe drowning when he was nine years old was what sent him off the rails, but the dude was definitely riding the crazy train" he said "One positive thing came out of this, though. Right?" she asked referring to Stiles' dad getting his job back.

"Yeah. Yeah, but I still feel like there's something wrong between us. I don't know. It's just like tension when we talk. Same thing with Scott" Stiles said "Have you talked to him since that night?" Ms. Morrell asked "No, not really. I mean, he's got his own problems to deal with though. I don't think he's talked to Allison either. But that might be more her choice, you know. Her mom dying hit her pretty hard. But I guess it brought her and her dad closer. Jackson? Jackson hasn't really been himself lately. Actually the funny thing is, as of right now, Lydia is the one who seems the most normal" Stiles said "What about the Lupus twin?" Ms. Morrell asked and Stiles looked at her.

"Harper and her brother James, how are they?" she asked, "Well, James isn't really talking to anyone other than his sister, but he have never really been much of a talker" Stiles said "What about Harper, your girlfriend?" she asked "She is okay, we talk sometimes, not as much as we use to. But I think she is okay" Stiles said "And what about you, Stiles? Feeling some Anxity about that championship game tomorrow night?" Ms. Morrell asked "Why would you ask me that?" Stiles said, he then noticed that he had the rope from the lacross stick in his mouth so he spit it out. 

"Ah. Uh, no. I-I never actually play. But hey, since one of my teammates is dead and another one's missing, who know, right?" he asked "You mean, Isaac. One of the three runaways. You haven't heard from any of them, have you?" she asked "How come you're not taking any notes on this?" he asked "I do my notes after the session" she answered "Your memory's that good?" Stiles asked "How about we get back to you?" Ms. Morrell asked and Stiles looked down at his lacross stick "Stiles?" she asked and he looked at her.
