This chapter is a tad bit Lydia and Scott centric. If you hate the Scydia moments... just pass over them, please. Hope you like it. ^-^ ~rymilu

"I didn't do anything!" He claims. The Sheriff gives him a look of uncertainty. And that is what Irritates him. Because he did nothing wrong. Except for maybe breaking into the house... but other than that, he is completely innocent.
"That still does not explain why you were at her house," Sheriff Stilinski reminds him. With a sigh, Liam yell him the whole story. On how he was worried because they were supposed to meet and that she did not show up. By the end, Sheriff Stilinski nods. "I'm still going to have to talk to her," he tells the young beta.
Liam nods solemnly. The man leaves him and Scott alone. The True Alpha looks at him, and he does not know if the look Is one of judgement or doubt. But it does not matter because he is slowly becoming irritated and losing patience at a rather quick pace. By the looks of It, Scott seems to notice and decides not to mention anything. Which is totally fine by him.
The brunette male goes sit down on one of the chairs, Scott does the same. He slowly starts to concentrate on only one thing: Savannah's heart beat. It is slow and steady. Hearing it beat calms his pounding one. Without meaning to, his heart becomes the same pace as hers. He can hear their hearts beat together; not once do they overlap. He is too focused that he does not see Lydia approaching, much less the look the two older teens share.
It appears she is right, and that does not surprise her. She is a genius after all. What DOES surprise her is how deeply Liam cares. Not that she has thought of him as heartless or anything. On the contrary, he is very brave. What he did in the 'final showdown' with Kate and confronting Scott when he was not himself... because that... that was brave. And she admires and respects him for that. Because thanks to that - what Liam did - Scott is with her and the psychotic, son of a bitch called Peter is out of the picture.
Scott pulls her aside, down to the end of the hall. Even if Liam is focused, they can not risk him hearing their conversation. Her wide green eyes capture Scott's warm ones. "You were right," he whispers.
The Martin girl nods. "He really cares for her."
"And that is what worries me. Not that I think that she is bad and will kill him or anything of that sort. What worries me is the fact that she may not return the feelings he has for her. His anger issues and him being a werewolf are what alarms me of what may happen next," Scott tells her.
Once more, she nods. Because she has had the same doubts and worries that her Alpha has had. "We will just have to wait and see. Either way, we will know. We always do," she murmurs quietly.
The True Alpha sighs and pulls her into his arms. An immediate warmth envelops her. Her body relaxes into his well built one. This should make her feel uncomfortable. Because he is her Alpha and because he is the guy that she occasionally hooks up with. They are not together, and even if they were, things would end badly. Just like always. But she can just NOT deny the sexual tension they have. He makes her feel good. Makes her feel safe and protected and... loved. And it's wrong. But they have been hooking up a lot lately that the lines of what is right and what is wrong have become blurred. She pulls away, hating the way her body misses the feel of his warmth.
"I have to go," she murmurs, and then walks away.
He watches her walk away, and for a moment, he wants to call her back. But he doesn't. Mainly because he can smell her need to get away. The True Alpha sighs. Love is complicated. Relationships in general are complicated. You can never really have a guy friend or a lady friend and NOT fall in love with them. Especially if it is Lydia Martin. And it makes him frown. Because he should not be crushing over her. Because they are just friends with benefits and nothing more. Still, it's hard for the McCall male to not do so. Lydia is just so... loveable. And that is what makes him frown even more deeply. Hopefully Liam does not go through this stage of love mix. Scott sighs and looks to where his beta is at.
Glumly, he takes a seat next to him once more and sighs. "What?" He asks the second Liam shifts.
"She's awake," he replies quietly.
She wakes with a slight gasp. The moment she does, her grandmother is startled awake and goes to her. The light makes her eyes burn; she closes them tightly and tries to not groan. Her whole body hurts. Like if a tractor had rolled over her repeatedly.
"Savannah, sweetie. Are you okay?" Asks her grandmother, anxiety and worry laced into her voice.
The brunette groans and whispers in a hoarse voice, "Water."
Cool glass is placed at her lips at her lips. She cranes her neck to drink. The water tasted good, and for what seems like the first time, she is grateful for it. Like seriously grateful. It may have something to do that she has just awakened for what seems like an eternity or she may be going insane, but she thinks of opening up a club that worships water.
Savannah coughs a bit and looks up at her grandmother. "Oh, Savannah. You gave us such a scare!" Her grandmother scolds. The woman tells Savannah how worried her mother and her friends - and especially that one guy outside - are. She feels sort of guilty for having them worry about her, and at the same time, a bit mad. Because she can take care of herself. And then it strikes her.
"What guy, grandma?" She asks weakly, wondering if It is Sam or another of her potential love interest named Pedro.
Her grandma gives her a look. "The one outside."
She can't help the bloom of warmth that spreads throughout her chest. A tint of hope is in her voice. "Liam?"
The older woman nods. "I believe so." She sighs. "Oh, the young man has been here for a long while. Won't go home until he sees you, he said."
It is ridiculous for her to be hopeful and so glad that a guy wants to see her. She should not be feeling this way, especially when the guy is trouble on two feet. But she does feel that way. Savannah just can't help it. And she isn't sure if she likes that or not.
Before she can register what is going on, she finds her grandmother has left her alone. Panic bubbles inside, makes her heart beat fast. The door opens, and her eyes widen. Stormy eyes on brown ones.
"How are you?" Liam asks her.
Well, I'm in a hospital and my friends are worried about me and so is my grandmother. I don't know how long I'll be here, but. You know, just another day in paradise...To her surprise, she tells him, "I'm fine."
And she truly is. Because he is there.
