"So, want to come over after school? My dad just started going back to work, which means we have the house all night, which means we have the flat screen all night. I'm thinking Star Wars marathon.." Scott gave him a very skeptical look, "seriously? I can't believe you're determined not to watch the best saga ever, but, sure, whatever you want, dwell in your ignorance. Can't blame a guy for trying" Stiles sighed, defeated, as they approached their usual table at the school cafeteria, only to realize it was already taken. They realized a little too late for them to turn around and find another one; Isaac and Allison, sitting in front of each other, already had raised their heads and were now looking at the two of them, waiting for them to say something.
"Hey" Scott offered, trying to break the ice. "Hey" Allison replied with an uncertain smile, "Hey" finished Isaac. Stiles sighed for the second time in two minutes "great, well, if we've all been properly greeted.. can we sit down with you guys?" Allison and Scott were looking at each other uncomfortably while Isaac was very busy staring at what was supposed to be pasta in his plate. "Yeah.. yeah, of course", Allison finally said, moving to let Stiles sit next to her while Scott took a seat next to Isaac. "This is so not awkward at all", Stiles said smiling, getting very disagreeing looks from all around the table. "So, you and Lydia, uh?" Isaac offered, smirking and raising his eyebrows at him, trying to change the subject and subtly getting a little revenge for Stiles' previous witty remarks, "..what?" he said, almost choking on the sandwich he was trying to eat. Scott turned to Isaac as Stiles turned to Scott with a surprised and then accusing look, "oh, come on", he said, falling back in his chair. "don't blame him. He talks in his sleep" Isaac explained, taking a bite of his dish. Allison was trying as best as she could to follow the conversation, but miserably failing "what are we talking about?" she finally asked. The three guys looked at each other. "Don't make me use my huntress training on you. You know I can make you talk" Allison added, giving the hint of a smile, but the boys didn't say a word. "So? What about Lydia?" she insisted. "She, uh.." Scott started, looking at Stiles for a sign of permission before finishing the sentence. Stiles moved his hands up in a gesture of surrender and crossed his arms snorting , so his best friend continued "she kissed Stiles", he said, smiling.
"She what?" Allison's eyes widened and Stiles couldn't help feeling a little hurt by how surprised she sounded to hear that, although he thought she was probably just shocked because Lydia didn't tell her, not because it happened. Or at least that's how Stiles chose to interpret her reaction. "Hey", someone said, as they all turned to the end of the table where Lydia was standing, tray in hands, clearly waiting to be invited to sit down. Everybody looked at her with a strange expression on their faces, before Allison slightly shook her head and smiled at her friend "Hey", "Hey" Isaac said, still eating, "Hey" Scott added with a smile, "seriously?" Stiles sighed. Lydia looked at him puzzled, raising her eyebrows, "I mean, hey", he couldn't help saying, sarcastically. "Want to sit down?" Allison asked, nodding at Stiles to move so Lydia could sit. "I thought you'd never ask" she smiled, taking the place beside Stiles. Their arms grazed as she was putting her tray down and he tried to ignore the chills that ran down his spine, as she tried to do the same. "So..", she said, looking up at the others, "what were you guys talking about?" Stiles, Scott, Allison and Isaac all turned to each other with a guilty look upon their faces, as Stiles said "Star Wars", while Isaac offered "Lacrosse" and at the same time Allison said "Summer", and Scott "you know.. stuff" which was ironically probably the best answer of all. If it had been the only one. Lydia widened her eyes "okay, then. But just so you know, there's no need to hide whatever apocalyptic new supernatural force has hit our town. It is sadly a very real and present part of my life by now" "right, right, sorry. We will definitely keep you posted on supernatural forces and things from now on" Scott replied with a smile.
"Hey" somebody said once again. "oh, for the love of G-" Stiles started, but he didn't finish his sentence as he looked up and saw the voice came from Aiden, who was standing right in front of them with his brother and Danny. Isaac and Scott looked about as happy to see him as Stiles was. "what do you want?" Scott asked, putting his serious true alpha face on. Aiden looked at Lydia "..to eat? Isn't that what you usually do in the cafeteria?" Scott's eyes turned red for an instant; he was having some trouble handling his werewolf powers ever since his 'upgrade' "I'm sorry but there are only two seats left, and there's three of you" he growled "It's okay, buddy, I'm not that hungry anyway" Stiles said, trying to calm his best friend down as he got up and took his tray with him to make space for the new comers. Scott took his eyes off of Aiden and looked at Stiles a bit worried. Lydia followed him with her eyes as well, as he got up and left the table. She was still looking at him when he turned back to look at his friends; their eyes met for a second before he walked out the door to go eat his lunch somewhere else. Scott quickly got up and followed his friend out the door. They walked next to each other quietly until Stiles broke the silence "you know I know you don't talk in your sleep, right?", they both turned to face each other and laughed.
