"Isaac and Scott, you guys take the school. Stiles and I will check out her house." I barked out orders. Isaac and Scott both nodded, even though I wasn't an Alpha anymore they still respected me and followed my orders like I was one. I grabbed Stiles and pulled him towards his jeep.

"Dude, I am not getting on the back of your bike with you."

"Why not?"

"Because that is weird…"

I could hear Isaac and Scott arguing over the bike situation from across the parking lot. "Here they thought we had sexual tension" I mumbled.

"What? Did you say something?"

"Nothing. Let's just get a move on." I said climbing in the jeep. We drove most of the way in silence. I could sense that Stiles didn't want to talk about what happened at Scott's house, not like the timing was appropriate anyways. We parked on the street in front of Lydia's house. Her car was parked in the drive-way and I could see her in the driver's seat. We both got out of the jeep running to her, but for some reason Stiles got there first and opened the door only to see Lydia in tears.

"Hey, Lydia what's wrong? What happened? What did you hear?" She tried explaining but it was hard to understand with all her crying.

"Hey, calm down. We're here now. Nothing can hurt you." It took a few minutes but eventually she calmed down enough to tell us about the phone call.

"You thought you heard Allison's and Aiden's voice…I see." Stiles pulled her in close, her head resting on his chest. "You're not crazy and it's not your power Lydia. You're grieving, it's understandable. You lost two people important to you in a short time."

"Stiles, please stay…with me for a while…" Lydia begged.

"Alright. Anything for you." He handed me his keys. "I'm going to stay here for a while. You can take the jeep back to your place and call Scott to drive it back here or something." Turning away he walked with Lydia back into the house.

I decided to take the jeep back to the school, giving it to Scott directly. "Damn it." I hit the steering wheel, I understand Lydia is going through a difficult time but did she really have to cling onto him like that?! He was mine and only mine….at least I wanted him to be. "What are you doing Derek, just shake it off. Stiles likes me and not her…." After I got the jeep situation settled, I decided to get some coffee and clear my head a bit instead of heading back home to think about Stiles.
