Zelda could not believe that Scott had run out without her. He actually left her at the school, which meant she was riding with Stiles in his jeep alone. She hadn't been alone with him since the motel, she was either with Scott or Briella whenever Stiles was around. And that was because she did not want to talk about what she did to him.
"So-" Stiles drags out the vowel a bit while turning down the road, "How are you feeling?"
"I'm-" Zelda nodded her head slowly to his question, "I'm good..."
Stiles swallowed and nodded his head, "That's good."
"Yep." Zelda agrees without looking over at him, she licked her lips before turning to him just as he said-
"So hey/Uh, you know-"
Stiles and Zelda grew silent to wait for the other, but neither spoke. Zelda wanted to say something but she was scared she'd cut him off again. Or that he wanted for her to not talk about it. Maybe to just forget it. That was probably what he wanted. After all, he wanted to forget his accidental kiss before.
"Um-" Zelda cleared her throat but didn't look over at him. She breathed in deeply and looked out the window with a slow exhale, "We can just... We can just go back to normal. Act like what happened at the motel didn't happen."
Stiles was quiet for a second as he pulled into the parking lot of the vet clinic. He put the gear in park and shifted in his seat while wiping his palm over his mouth, "Is that what you want?"
Zelda nodded her head, "Yeah..."
"Okay-" Stiles opened the door to his jeep and hopped out, not waiting for Zelda to follow him out.
Zelda only felt confused at his reaction and let out a groan. Did she read this wrong? She jumped out of the jeep and quickly ran into the vet clinic. Scott looked grateful to see her and Stiles, everything was a little too much for him at the moment. But one thing Scott noticed was the tenseness coming from Zelda. If it weren't for the fact that he was so worried about Deaton, he might ask her what was going on.
Sheriff Stilinski stared at the three kids before letting out a deep sigh, "All right, we're doing everything we can. Right now, the best thing you can do is go back to school."
Scott in distress nodded for Zelda and Stiles to follow him to the back of the clinic. Once out of earshot he spoke, "We have to tell him."
"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?"
For a second Scott was confused by Stiles' sentence, "You know what I mean."
"You remember how your mom reacted?" Stiles demanded, "She didn't look you in the eye for, like, a week."
"But she got over it." Zelda adds, "I would know, I was around."
"And it actually made us closer as a family."
