Summary: Much like anything else, the pack disintegrated slowly at first, then all at once.

Disclaimer: I STILL do not own Teen Wolf.

Like the Forest, We Burn

For weeks and weeks, Stiles' suspicion of Theo grew. And for weeks and weeks, his suspicion was ignored by everyone, except Liam. Of course, Stiles believed deep down that Lydia would probably believe him and choose him over the kid from fourth grade, but he hadn't spoken to her much within those weeks.

Stiles has known Scott for a long, long time. Longer than Theo. But Stiles also knows that Scott is incapable of not being kind and forgiving. And that drives Stiles insane, more so than usual. He thought maybe he'd be used to it by now, but frankly it pisses him off that Scott would just let anyone stomp all over himself...and the rest of the pack.

Speaking of the rest of the pack, Stiles really has not talked to much of them either. Why should he? They all think he's going crazy. He'd think he was going crazy too if he didn't feel that disturbing feeling inside that told him to stay far, far away from Theo. Obviously Liam felt this as well because he sided with Stiles from the beginning. And damn that made Stiles feel more appreciated than he had in a long time.

Much like Sheriff Stilinski had said so eloquently, after a few weeks, Theo made a slip up.

Stiles had been at his locker, gathering his books for next period, when Theo came up behind him. Anxiety filled Stiles' veins as he jumped slightly, turning to face the werewolf with disinterest.

"Watch your back, Stilinski. Scott's mine." Theo snarled.

Stiles prepared a vengeful response, but was cut off by a growl coming from behind him. Half hoping it was Scott, Stiles turned towards Liam who's eyes flickered dominantly at the other wolf. Theo rolled his eyes and walked away from the two.

"I didn't need your help." Stiles slammed his locker and began his trek towards his next class.

"Yes you did, you smelled like you were terrified, Stiles." Liam easily caught up, grabbing Stiles wrist.

"I believed you before, but now we've got proof!" Liam spoke excitedly, pulling out his phone to reveal that his video recorder had been on the entire time.

"And, how, exactly did you get what he said? You weren't even there when he said it." Stiles sighed, removing his arm from Liam's grip.

"Dude, I was right behind you." Liam raised his hands in exasperation.

"Well...thanks," Stiles lowered his voice as he spoke. He entered the classroom, tiredly. He was really over this.

"Hey. Stiles? What's up with you? You smell more anxious than usual..." Scott trailed off, his eye brows raised. As if he was the one confused and not Stiles.

"Well, you know, I just had a chat with your pal Theo. Real charmer, that he is. He told me to watch my back. He also told me, now this is good, that you, yes you, are his." Stiles remarked snidely, turning away from Scott as he did so.

"You're ridiculous."

And with those two words, Stiles Stilinski lost complete and total faith in Scott McCall.

So i'm back, beaches. Yeah I really don't have the desire to explain my absence right now. Of course I will get to that later because I realize I disappeared for quite some time. After those first two episodes and that commercial for the season, I am majorly pumped. Most of this will be based off of that commercial. Btw, I do not have a beta and I refuse to check my grammar so I'm praying this isnt trash. I'm trying! SECOND CHAPTER WILL BE MUCH LONGER THIS IS JUST A SORTA INTRO.
