Allison pulls up into our drive way and stops the car as she sighs making Lydia and I look at her. "I need you both two promise that you won't say anything about what just happened" Allison says.

"I'll promise not to say anything about what just happened if you could tell me what the hell just happened" Lydia says and Allison turns to and I shrug.

"It's --it's kind of complicated"Alli says. "Well how 'bout you start with why was Derek there? Or where Jackson went, or what is wrong with Erica? Oh, do you need a minute to come up with a plausible lie ?"Lydia asks.

"Part of the reason why I'm asking is because Scott and I aren't suppose to be seeing each other, okay? So, it's better if you guys just keep what you know to yourselves" Allison says. "Fine. I'll keep what I know about you and your boyfriend which is nothing--to myself " Lydia says.

"No, it's not fine. I get that your trying to protect people and all but it seems like you're risking everything for some guy. I know Scott and he isn't so bad but he's just a guy who will end up with some new girl by next year. If you really want to risk everything for Scott then so be it but I refuse to let you use me and my sister as pawns. You knew what they were planning and you didn't bother telling either one of us and we could have been hurt or killed which I was hurt of you didn't notice" I rant as Lydia and I open our doors.

"Hey. He's not just my boyfriend. You get that, right?"Allison asks. "Let me go" Lydia says. "Just for one second, please, try and remember--".

"Remember what?" Lydia yells at Allison. "Remember what it feels like. All of those times in school when you see him standing down the hall, and you cannot breathe until you're with him. Or those times in class when you--you can't stop looking at the clock because you he's standing right out there waiting for you. Don't you remember what that's like?" Allison asks.

"No" Lydia says as I roll my eyes. "What do you mean,"no"? You've had boyfriends." Allison says to her. "None like that" Lydia says getting out. "What about you, Layla?" Allison asks and I sigh.

"I've never had a boyfriend" I admit . "I know that you know whats happening and I trust that you will keep it a secret. I am trying so hard to protect you and Lydia along with most of the people in this town so please" she begs as I get out of the car. "Okay" I say walking into my house.

"I'm gonna let Prada go for a walk in the back" Lydia says lifting up Prada. I rush up the stairs and into my room. I throw my things on my bed and take my shirt and skirt off leaving me in a white cami and black spandex shorts. I pull my hair out of my bun as I walk into my bathroom .

I groan as I look at the discoloration of my skin from where Erica punched me. It's starting to turn a dark purple. I look at my arm and see claw marks from where Erica pierced my skin. "That Bitch" I say to myself referring to Erica.

"What happened to your arm"Lydia asks popping up behind me and scaring me. "Just a little scratch" I say hiding my arm from her and she nods .

"Well I'm going to bed and I'm gonna try to forget that this night ever happened so goodnight" she says and I nod as I turn to tend to my wounds.

"Are you sure you don't know where he is?" Mrs. Whittemore asks Lydia and I as we eat our breakfast. "No, we haven't seen him since the other day when we were at school" I say as she finishes her coffee and my mom pats her back.

"He's gonna be okay" mom assures her. Apparently Jackson has been missing but Stiles called me and explained that him, Scott and Allison have Jackson safe. He tried to kill Danny last night so they are trying to prevent him from harming anybody else.

"Well I just don't understand who would want to harm him" his mother says looking at Lydia and I. "Me either because Jackson is just so delightful" I say putting on a smile and Lydia kicks me under the table.

"I'm glad someone understands that Jackson isn't so bad" Mrs.Whittemore says and I nearly fall out my chair laughing but manage to conduct myself.

"Jackson is a good boy, he just needs someone to help him continue being good. Why did you two break up?" Mrs.Whittemore asks Lydia as I dump my bowl and spoon in the sink.

"It just wasn't working out" Lydia says putting on the best fake smile she has. Lydia gets up and follows me out into the backyard.

"Do you think he's okay?" she asks and I nod. "Lydia look, if Jackson comes back okay, then stay away from him. He's bad news" I warn her and she rolls her eyes.

"Just because you don't like doesn't mean I can't still be his friend" she comments. "Trust me, you don't want to be his friend " I warn and she walks back into the house.

"She's not a fan of you" I hear a voice and turn around to see a boy around my age with brown hair and somewhat light blue eyes. "Do I know you?" I ask him and he shrugs. "No but I know you" he says and I turn my head to the side.

"And how is that?" I ask and he smiles as he takes a step forward towards me. He moves his hand to my side and lifts my tank top up to reveal my scar from the night I was attacked.

"I'm the one that gave you this"he says tracing my scar and I look up to see a man covered in dirt and worms. I go to scream but he holds his hand to my mouth.

"You've been a good girl Layla, I need you to continue being a good girl. I need you to keep everyone else distracted. Lydia will handle the rest but just keep everyone distracted" he says. "Peter" I whisper and he smiles.

"So you do know who I am" he says as a tear leaves my eye. "Remember Layla, be a good girl. Good Girls get rewarded" he says and I close my eyes. The minute I open them he's gone but in my hand lays a purple flower, wolves bane.

A/N: I promise season three will be so much better. Personally season 3 is my favorite. I'm trying to hurry up and get through season 2. Layla isn't meant to be fully involved with Scott and everybody else yet.

She will have a bigger role in season three just like Lydia. I'm debating on weather I should start putting in the romance now or wait for season 3 but either way I already know who she will end up with which I am hoping surprises you guys,
