(The First I love You - Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein)

After listening to the tape, I went back to my room and took a shower rinsing off the long dreadful day. Once I finished, I changed into some black shorts and an old Star Wars t-shirt that Stiles gave me when I was little.

No, I don't wear it in public, only as a sleep shirt or if he comes over for a sleepover. As I was combing through my damp hair, I hear a creak in the floorboards coming from the other side of my bathroom door.

Sniffing the air, I recognize the familiar wooden minty smell causing a small grin to reach my face. Opening the door, I feel my heart flutter seeing Liam stumble into my room from the window, holding on to my dresser for balance.

"Oh, hey," the beta exhales catching sight of me, straightening up from his spot. "I just wanted to see if you were okay."

"Much better now," I exhale walking over to him slowly. "Thank you for saving my life, even while you were hurt."

He put me first, and made sure I was gonna get out alive. It was everything to me. I felt my heart beat begin to rise as he stepped closer to me.

"You were dying," he responded, now standing right in front of me. His hand came up to my face softly tucking a piece of my wet hair behind my ear. "I'd do anything for you."

My breathe hitched at his close proximity, his eyes flickered down to my lips then back to my eyes.

"Same," I whispered as we both leaned in, our foreheads touching. Liam hesitatingly places his hands on my waist pulling me closer to him. His warmth envelops me, his scent reaching my scenes making my heart melt.

I wasn't sure if werewolves and vampires were supposed to be attracted to each other like in some folktales, but in this world, I feel nothing but this pull towards the boy in front of me.

"It's crazy, right?" Liam says lowly.

"What?" I ask bringing my hands up to the back of his neck to play with his short blonde hairs.

"Our connection, our feelings for each other," he says. I raise my eyebrows at him.

"Did I totally misread this?" He began to panic. I laughed placing my hands on either side of his face, leaning my forehead against his.

"No, no, you're right," I reassure the beta. He lets out a deep breath, closing his eyes.

"Good, that would've been awkward," he chuckled pecking my nose causing a rush if blood to come across my face. "Because, I really like you."

I grin at his words, my heart fluttering in my chest.

"I really like you too, Dunbar," I state.

"Does that mean you'll be my girlfriend?" He asks, hope in his voice as if we didn't just admit our feelings for each other.

"Absolutely," I smile before leaning up and passionately placing my lips on his. Butterflies erupted in my belly as our lips interlocked, my fingers ran through his soft blonde hair. We pulled away breathless, our noses still touching.

"I hate to end this moment, but I have to take the PSAT's tomorrow and Scott is kicking Stiles out as we speak," I say lowly. 

"Think I can take you out to dinner tomorrow after you ace that exam?" He asks. 

"You still owe me that ice cream so yes," I agree. He laughs before pulling back. I watch as he sits on the window seal, tossing one leg outside. 

"See you tomorrow pretty girl," he grins. I blush smiling at his words.
