Eden's POV

"If Derek isn't the Alpha... if he's not the one who bit you... then who did?" Stiles questioned, leaning over the front of his desk to speak to Scott who sat in front of him. I was sitting to Scott's right, listening in on the conversation. Scott had called the two of us last night, explaining that Derek hadn't bit him and that there is another werewolf called 'the Alpha.' 

"I don't know," Scott answered truthfully.

"Did the Alpha kill the bus driver?" I raised a brow.

"I don't know," he answers again.

"Does Allison's dad know about the Alpha?" Stiles leans back and then leans forward again when the question comes to his brain.

"I don't know!" Scott bangs his hand on the desk, drawing the attention of all the surrounding students. Stiles recoils in his seat, pursing his lips and scratching the back of his neck. The teacher walks past handing out the grades to last week's pop quiz. 

"Dude, you need to study more," Stiles states the obvious as the two of us focus in on the big, red D- on Scott's paper. Looking back, I spot the A on Stiles paper. I had managed to get an A as well, much to my surprise with the amount of procrastinating I do. Scott sighs, throwing his paper on the table disappointedly. "That was a joke. Scott, it's one test! You're gonna make it up. Do you want help studying?" 

"I can help too," I pitch in.

"No, it's ok, I'm studying with Allison after school today." 

"That's my boy," Stiles raises his eyebrows in a suggestive manner.

"We're just studying." Scott replies, pointedly.

"Uh, no, you're not," I scoff. It might have never happened to me, but I know how 'study dates' end. It happens all the time in the movies.

"I'm not?" Scott furrows his brows, clearly oblivious as always.

"Not if I'm forced to live vicariously through you! If you go to her house today and squander that colossal opportunity, I swear to God, I'll have you de-balled," Stiles frantically moves his head and arms.

"Okay. Just... stop with the questions,"  Scott agrees.

"one. No more questions. No more talk about the Alpha, or Derek... especially Derek... who still scares me..." Stiles nods.

"Remember Scott," I lean over and place a hand on his shoulder. "Consent is sexy."

The end of the school day came just as fast as it had begun. When one of your best friends is a werewolf, things kind of speed up around you. Stiles and I walk out to his jeep, he had offered me a ride home since the bus with Jared was something no one wanted to endure. I mean, travelling to and from school with Stiles had now just become the norm. Stiles rushes to pull out of his park and start driving away, not wanting to get stuck behind everybody else trying to leave.
