"Strange love" ~Stackson~

Familar scent"

Jackson's POV~

Jackson smelled the fear that was coming off Stiles and he followed the scent towards the bathroom he opened the door slightly seeing Grayson Drake hold Stiles up against the bathroom stall he opened the door more and went in grabbing the back of Graysons shirt pulling him off Stiles holding him against the bathroom door facing the door

" You seriously think you can pick on him and get away with it, remember I'm more important then you'll ever be everyone here no one likes you, you could try and have friends but you choose to be a condescending rat, you should go back to the sewer where you belong!" Jackson said in an angry tone as he slammed his face against the hard door as he opened it and threw him out in the hallway where everyone had been standing " I suggest you transfer schools" he shut the bathroom door and turned over to Stiles.

Jackson crossed his arms as he looked at the smaller boy" you really thought you couldn't tell me that Grayson Drake was hurting you, Stiles he's on his second strike already, one more and he's getting transferred to a all boys boarding school, look I know I'm not exactly your best friend well quite the opposite, but I'd never hurt you, and I'm not gonna stand by and let someone so small such as Grayson Drake bully you" he walked closer to Stiles "give me your phone" he commanded the small boy to do so

Stiles reach in his pocket and handed him his unlocked phone, Jackson grabbed it seeing Stiles and Scott making silly faces in the photo as his wallpaper he scrolled over to contacts and entered his number in creating a contact setting his contact under 'Jax' and sent a text to his phone as it made a singing sound, he handed Stiles his phone back to him, " text me whenever you need to ok? I gotta go home and finish w homework"

Stiles took the phone back as he saw Jackson started to leave he smiled at the sudden kindness he had received from his once normal enemy " wait Jackson, you called me Stiles"

Jackson turned around "did I Stilinski?" He chuckled and left the bathroom walking out to his car, he felt his heart beating super fast and he sat and thought while opening his car door " why does my heart feel this way" he sat and thought to himself and started his engine backing out of the school parking lot.

Stiles POV ~

Stiles stood leaning against the bathroom door, holding his phone against his chest lost in his own thoughts, why would Jackson suddenly care who had hurt him, why would he come in and pull Grayson off him, why did he give him his number, bust most importantly why did he call him by his name like they were suddenly friends, he wondered to himself, he figured he should at least get home he had a history assignment he needed to get done before Thursday and Stiles already knew he had a rough time focusing anyways, he seemed to have forgotten his bag down in the boy locker room, he put his phone in his back pocket and walked down to the locker room, adjusting the flannel the hung loosely off his shoulder as he continued walking, he opened the doors to the locker room and grabbed his bag that he'd forgotten he heard talking down there he's wondered who it was he heard he looked around the corner and saw Grayson talking to his friends, he quickly ran for the door and turned out of the school running to his Jeep he opened the door and shut it behind him setting his bag in the passenger seat staring his Jeep the engine quit and shut off he turned his key again trying to start er up once the engine sputtered a few times it finally started he laughed " there ya go baby" he said pulling out of the school parking lot starting on his way home

Jackson's POV~
After Jackson had gotten home he plopped down on bed after today he had just wanted to lay there forever and finally relax, but he couldn't really anyways he kept thinking about Stiles, which was confusing, sure they hated each other and he helped him earlier today but really why'd he have to keep thinking about him, he sat up and grabbed his bag and reach for his books as he saw his phone lit up in his bag, he reach for it instead and saw Stiles name across his phone screen he opened the message and read the text

Text: from Stilinski-
Hey Jax or Jackson whatever you prefer, anyways thanks for today you really saved my ass back there"

Jackson smiled and messaged him back

Text: to Stilinski
Hey no problem I wouldn't have left ya hanging like that, he's an ass really he deserves to be sent to a private school, also Jax works fine but it all depends on your personal preference Stilinski"

Jackson put his phone down and grabbed his books, he leaned back against his pillows propped up because of the large headboard of his bed, sitting his books in his lap, as he began reading for his science assignment, he had a few figure for things due some not due till next week though, but Jackson had to get all his things done on time it was unacceptable to turn in homework late.

Stiles POV~
An hour had passed he saw the texts from Jackson he smiled and blushed, reading them to himself " so I mean he really doesn't have a preference on what he'd wanna be called, so I guess I can call him whatever I want" he said noosing his head As he began to text back

Text: To Jax-
Well then I guess I can call you whatever then huh,"

He sent the text and went over to his bed sitting down he really needed to complete this history assignment, but he's not really concerned if he turns it in on time or not, he shrugged " okay let's get to reading about dead people who disinterest me" he chuckled opening the page.

About an hour had passed

Stiles woke up lifting his face off the history book, " huh I guess I was really disinterested huh" he put the book on his desk and picked his phone up seeing two missed texts and three miss calls opening his phone he read that both Scott and Jackson had called him, Jackson had messaged him he clicked on Scotts number waiting to see if Scott would pick up, he answered.

Scott mumbled" hey what's up Stiles" stiles scoffed" ugh dude you called me two times did you not realize or something" Scott was half asleep you could tell from his voice" oh stiles I'm sorry it must've been an accident I fell asleep texting Allison I'm sorry" Stiles sighed of course he did yeah he was happy for Scott but Scott hardly ever texted him or called for that matter, he was always to busy with Allison or whatever" it's ok Scott you should probably get back to texting her before she comes to your house with a bow an arrow thinking that you've been murdered or something " he joked but it was kinda true, Scott smiled and answered Stiles " you think she would I mean I could see her if she did" Stiles huffed " of course she would Scott ok going back to home work remember use protection!" He hung up throwing his phone over to his bed laying back down frowning in the process.

Stiles sat up quickly remembering Jackson had called him, he quickly reach for his phone almost falling off the bed in the process clicking on Jackson's name heading the ringing echoed through his head as he heard Jackson's voice " Hey Stilinski welcome back to the land of the living" he joked Stiles smiled answering him " Hey Jax and haha funny thanks though I fell asleep reading through my history assignment, cause it's booringgg" he dragged out the boring like a pouting child

Jackson stood up off his bed, he kind of wanted to see Stiles for some reason he wanted to know if he was ok he remembered it was warm out and he was gonna go out and swim for a while so he'd figure asking Stiles to come to his house at 7:30pm on a school night sounded completely normal right? He shook off the thought and put the phone back up to his ear " well, since your so bored why don't you come over, and hang for a while, maybe go swimming if you want you don't have to though completely up to you, I'm not gonna force you or anything" he rambled out, Stiles stood up did Jackson Whittmore just ask him to come over? And invite him to swim just the two of them" Jackson calm down... sure I'd love to come over and hang, I'm not sure I'll swim but just coming over to talk would be fun" he said smiling brightly through his phone, Jackson stopped in his tracks from the pacing he started to do," Wait really your gonna come over?! I mean that's cool I'll see you whenever you get here" he smiled hanging up the phone and going over to his bed and started to put away his books

Stiles smiled" wait he sounded genuinely excited for me to come over, I mean I'm excited to go over, wait why am I so excited to see Jackson freaking Whittmore of all people, ok get yourself together Stiles " he said to himself as he walked downstairs, he walked out the door and yelled back " dad I'll be back soon, meeting up with a friend" he said earning an ok from his father as he jumped over to his Jeep starting it up and began driving over to Jackson's house...
