Danika's POV

The next day I walked into school much more confident than the first. I knew my way around and Ethan and Aidan promised to eat lunch with me and told me I could come sit with them in science. As I walked down the hallway, I made eye contact with Stiles for a second before quickly setting my sights in front of me, put my stuff in my locker and waited around for a bit. I didn't want to be late but if I was one of the last ones in the class, maybe someone would have taken the seat next to Stiles and I could sit elsewhere. By the time I got to class, all the seats were filled except for one, the one next to Stiles. Damn. I walked over and just trying not to think about it and trying to act as natural as possible. I was still really hurt by what had happened yesterday. Either way this is where I had to sit. When I sat down, Stiles and Scott both obviously became uncomfortable but while Scott's was just an awkward uncomfortable, Stiles's was guilty and kind of sad. He still didn't look at me thought. I guess this made it easier to concentrate on English.

Once Science came around, I walked into the room and went to sit with Aidan and Ethan immediately. Shortly after Scott and Stiles walked in together and noticed this right away. Stiles eyes widened and he quickly turned to Scott who gave him the biggest "I messed up" faces I've ever seen. The rest of the period, Stiles was very anxious or agitated or something! He was tapping and bouncing and kept looking over. I tried to just ignore it but after the bell rang Stiles jumped up and ran over to me.

"DANIKA! Can I talk to you for a sec?" He asked panicked. I looked back to Ethan and Aidan and nodded, sending them out of the room for us to meet up later.

"What is it Stiles?" I crossed my arms and immediately got defensive.

"Why are you hanging out with Ethan and Aidan? They're bad news! They're really really bad news!"

"Well yesterday, after Scott decided we weren't going to be friends, they were really nice to me and helped me out. Just because they're new doesn't mean you can just make assumptions about them!"

"Assumptions? No this is definitely not an assumption. Danika, you can't hang out with him! It's dangerous!"

"How? Tell me how Stiles."

"I…. Uh….Fuck. I can't but you need to trust me! They put our friend Isaac in the hospital!"

"Yeah, I don't believe you."

"Danika…? Hey look I'm sorry about yesterday. It's just that.." Scott awkwardly joined the conversation.

"Look. I really don't want to hear it. I don't know what your issue is with me and why suddenly when I'm now friends with the twins you guys change your mind but I'm leaving." I walk out of the classroom and out of the corner of my eye I see Stiles smack Scott across the head.

"Look what you did! Literally the opposite of what you wanted!" I just heard Stiles say as I was leaving the room. I went to my locker, put my stuff away, grabbed my bagged lunch and headed towards the twin's lockers. As I'm approaching the hallway I hear yelling and peek to see Stiles confronting the two much bigger and taller twins.

"You guys better stay away from her!" Stiles raised his voice.

"Oh Stiles, does it bother you that we're spending time with her? Does it… worry you?" Aidan stepping right up against Stiles.

"What are you going to do about it Stiles? We're way out of your league. You're just worried because you couldn't hold onto her." Ethan now took a step towards Stiles and whispered something in his ear.

"You're really going to regret the path you two are going down. Scott and I will make sure of it." That was it. I don't know what Stiles is trying to pull but I am not dealing with it right now. I turn the corner and make my presence well known.

"Ethan, Aidan. Let's go. And Stiles, I don't know what your issue with me is, or your issue with Aidan and Ethan but just leave us alone!" Stiles eyes grew sad and rather worried.

"Danika, can I just talk to you for a second? It's super important!" He asked. I shook my head.

"Maybe later Stiles. I'm kind of busy right now. Let's go guys." And with that, Ethan, Aidan and myself walked away and Stiles let out a frustrated sigh. The conversation left me feeling rather uneasy. I don't know why Stiles is so adamant that I stay away from Ethan and Aidan as they have been nothing but nice to me. I also thought some of what the twins said was weird but guys like to try and freak each other out so I let it go as we reached the stairs from yesterday, the place we were going to have lunch. As we sat down, I sighed and lay on the floor.

"Uh… you okay?" Aidan looked at me confused.

"Yeah. Just stressed. What is it with you guys and Stiles? Why do you hate each other so much?" There was a moment of silence that caused me to sit up and look at them.

"Uh.. I guess we just come from different places or something. Scott and Stiles think they're such good doers but they're only helping themselves."

"Huh. Weird. Did you guys fight a guy named Isaac?"

"Who's Isaac?"

"Yeah, that's what I thought."

"Hey! I have an idea! Let's go out for lunch! I think we need to get out of here for a bit!" Ethan stands up and turns back to Aidan and I.

"Ethan, you are a genius! Let's go!" I stand up too and Aidan follows. As we leave the school through the front doors, we pass Scott, Stiles and their two female friends. It was as if we passed them in slow motion, Stiles noticing first and his face dropping and then the other three turned and noticed as well. I couldn't get out of there fast enough because they wouldn't stop staring and whispering. Finally we reached the parking lot and the boys stood in front of two motorcycles.

"Oh goodness gracious, you've got to be kidding me! This is terrifying!" I turned to the boys wide eyed and scared.

"Just hang out and you'll be fine, promise!" Aidan grabbed my arm and brought me over to his bike. He gave me his helmet and then got on the bike. Nervously I got on the back and held on for dear life as we drove away from the school.

Stiles's POV

Danika didn't show up for History. Stiles knew she was with Ethan and Aidan last and now, on her second day, she was missing class. Something had to be wrong. He tried to talk to Scott about it but he figured everything was fine! They were either skipping together or she just went home after Stiles had that fight with Ethan and Aidan. Stiles started to calm down, thinking she just got upset and went home but Ethan was missing from his next class. He knew something was wrong. He tried texting her and even called her a few times that night but he got nothing. It wasn't until Science the next day that Scott finally recognized something was wrong. Danika wasn't there but Ethan and Aidan were both missing again. They both went to Derek's place at lunch, forgetting about the rest of school.

"Derek! DEREK! OPEN UP!" Stiles yelled, banging on the door. A very confused Derek opened it.

"Derek, the twins took someone! Probably to wherever Boyd and Erica are!" Scott informed him. Derek's eyes shot wide open.

"What? Are you sure?" Stiles nodded.

"Yeah, I'm sure. They told me I should be worried. That I couldn't keep her safe and now she's gone. Derek, she's not a werewolf. She's in real trouble!"
