Abandon⇢Teen Wolf

Chapter 9

I'm walking to my locker heading to my fourth period when I am grabbed down a different hallway heading towards the parking lot.

"What the hell Stiles?"

"Scott needs us come on." he says not looking back and not letting go of my arm.

"Needs us? What about school?"

"Nope, no school. We have to go to Deaton's. He has been kidnapped. Scott is there now with my dad."

"Wait Deaton. Why Deaton? What are we gonna be able to do? Specifically me, I wanted in on the secret not to be in on the action." He stops to look at me and rolls his eyes. Continuing to drag me to his jeep. I get in and he immediately drives.

~~~

Scott, Stiles and I are waiting for the Sheriff to tell us something. I am sitting next to Scott with my head on his shoulder, one hand in his and the other on the necklace Deaton gave me. Mr. Stilinski comes over and says there is nothing that we can do and the three of us should head to school. Scott nods over to a door so they can talk privately.

"We have to tell him." He looks to Stiles specifically.

"You mean like tell him tell him? Or tell him something else that isn't telling him what I think you want to tell him." Stiles squints his eyes in disbelief.

"You know what I mean."

"Remember how your mom reacted? She couldn't look you in the eyes for a week."

"She got over it. And it actually made us closer." That clearly wasn't what Stiles wanted to hear. Scott is gentle in his pushing but, Stiles looks like he wants to do anything but that.

I interrupt trying to lighten the mood "Well I thought your mom didn't talk to you because she literally watched her son turn into a beast right in front of her eyes. Not that you are a beast but, Stiles I don't think you have to worry about that because you won't turn into anything." They both just look at me. I shrug my shoulders and go and sit on a cage. I guess I'm wrong.

"I don't know, dude. I mean, look at him. Come on, he's completely overwhelmed as it is." They both look out the door to where Sheriff is. He has is hands on his head and I can feel the stress radiating from him. 

"He's overwhelmed because he has no clue what's happening. He's got people dying in his town, the town that he's supposed to protect, and it's not his fault that he doesn't know what's happening. He's gonna find out sooner or later"

"Yeah, but is now really the right time?"

"What if not telling him now gets someone else killed?"

"What if telling him gets him killed, huh? I mean, okay, look, I get that Deaton's been like a father to you. I get that, okay? But this is m... " Stiles chokes a bit and continues. "Scott, this is my actual father. I can't... I can't lose both of my parents, all right? Not both of them." His words come desperately as if he is begging Scott to understand. I look down, not really knowing what it's like to have parents, I guess this is one of those times I should be lucky.

"You're right." Scott's face is genuine and almost a little guilty as if he shouldn't have even suggested it. Stiles takes a deep breath before reluctantly speaking.

"No, I'm not. I'm not right. I'll tell him." Stiles face goes from regretful to determination.

"I'll help you." Scott and Stiles both look at each other and you can't help but feel the love between them. They've become brothers and I have never felt more like I didn't belong than I do right now. They start to head out and then look back towards me.

"Oh um didn't want to ruin the moment." I follow behind to be met with Mrs. Morrell saying Deaton is her brother. She comes up to us and says we need to find Lydia. As we are walking out.
