Yo Yo Yo.
Sorry for the lateness, was busy getting married. ;)
So is another chapter for y'all.
Enjoy.
After school, Luna stood at her locker, trying to decide whether she should go to the store now or wait until after she had knocked some of the homework out. When she closed her locker, she was met with Allison.
She stared at her for a moment, wanting to tell her to fuck off, but she knew that would upset Scott and as much as she hated hunters and how stupid he was being, frolicking with a hunters daughter, she couldn't bring herself to ruin things for him. "Yes?"
"I was wondering if you needed help with dinner. Scott invited me," She looked down for a moment. "He didn't tell you?" She asked softly as Luna pulled her phone out and looked at it; three missed texts and two were from Scott.
The last one being, "Please don't murder her."
Luna rolled her eyes at the text, looking at the one not from Scott, and it was from Jackson. "Still stopping by for tacos later." She rolled her eyes again and noticed that Allison was staring at her.
"Sorry. Um, I don't really need help. I could probably make these in my sleep." She watched Allison's shoulders fall and she wanted to mentally slap herself for what she was about to do. "Come on, I'm driving." Allison's face lit back up and Luna could see the appeal that Scott saw; she was pretty and sweet, but her undecided status would bother her until she had the truth about Allison Argent.
While they drove, Luna hummed, "Heavy in You Arms" not knowing what to say to Allison. Finally, Allison broke the silence. "So, you live with Scott and his mom?"
She nodded. "Yep, since I was 12."
Allison's eyebrows shot up, not having expected that answer. "And you're parents are okay,"
"They're dead." She said nonchalantly as Allison stared at her.
"I'm sorry, that was rude."
"Its okay. I forget that you haven't lived here forever. Everyone knows about them."
"I'm really sorry."
"Its really okay. My dad died before I could even remember him and my mom when I was 12. I've had time to let it go."
"Let it go?"
Luna looked at Allison. "You cannot hold unto death unless you want it to consume you." She said as they pulled into the grocery store.
Allison grabbed a cart and watched as Luna danced her way through the store, tossing random things into the cart. "So, you've known Scott a long time then?"
Luna nodded as she waved at one of the old ladies in the store. "You need me to grab something for you Ms. D?" She asked politely as she reached up and grabbed what Ms. D was trying to grab on the top shelf.
"Aww, thank you Letty, you're so sweet. How's that little girl of yours doing?"
"She's doing just fine Ms. D. You give me a call if you need anything, okay?" The old lady nodded as she walked away, half spaced out as a woman in scrubs ran up to her.
"Sorry Luna. I took my eyes off of her for one minute."
"Darn those children, right?" She said with a wink as the nurse laughed.
"Thank you."
"No problem." she said as she joined Allison at their cart.
"That was really nice of you."
Luna shrugged. "Ms.D was my neighbor when I was little. She kind of lost her marbles when her husband died a couple of years ago. Thinks I'm my mom."
Allison nodded as they headed over to the meat section and she started to pile the ground meats in. "Cooking for an army?"
"You have obviously never seen Scott or Stiles eat. Plus there is us, Jackson and Lydia, Melissa and the Sheriff."
Allison looked at her confused. "Everyone is coming over?"
"Nah. I just make extra because I know they'll want it. The last time I made tacos and Stiles didn't bring any for his dad, I got some very disapproving looks for a week."
Allison chuckled. "Okay then." She looked at Luna, still trying to figure her out, but she could see why no one seemed to have a problem with her; she was a genuinely sweet person.

By the time they got to the house, Stiles jeep was already out front. "Oh dear, looks like we took too long at the store." She said with a slight smile as she honked her horn several times.
In moments, the front door opened, revealing Scott and Stiles. "Boys, groceries."
"We just got done with-" Luna raised one brow and that was all it took for them to shut up and grab the bags.
Allison looked back at her. "Teach me that."
"Its just the mom glare. I happened to have a really good one." She said with a shrugged as she grabbed her messenger bag and headed into the house.
Once inside, she saw Scott being lovely with Allison causing her to roll her eyes. "Off with you two. I don't need to lose my dinner before I even eat it."
Allison pulled back. "Are you sure? I did offer to help."
Luna shrugged it off. "Its okay, I have my favorite slave right here." She said as she patted Stiles shoulder.
He mouthed, "Help me." to Scott and Allison, causing them to laugh as they disappeared up the stairs.
"Remember to wrap it before you tap it. I don't have time to explain to your mom why I let you knock someone up." She yelled, but was only met with silence. It made her smile.
Luna turned back to Stiles and smiled widely at him. "How was practice?"
"It was okay." He said as he followed her into the kitchen.
"How was your time with Allison?" Luna one shoulder shrugged and Stiles nodded.
"Not bad then, okay."
"She seems sweet enough."
"But?"
"But I'm not sure yet. Thats all." He nodded as he watched her set up everything they needed for the tacos before firing up the burners.
"Can I help?"
She looked at him with a surprised look. "You never want to help."
"I'm bored."
Luna smiled. "Its okay, but thank you for the offer."
"You're welcome." He sighed. "I might as well work on homework." He said as he pulled it out and started.
Luna couldn't help but stare at him; she could not even count the ways she was in love with him, she wouldn't even know where to start. She wanted to tell him, to let him know that she was his, all he had to do was ask and to make up his mind, but she knew that she could not interfere; she had an unfair advantage and cheating in a situation such as this, was never a good idea.
Just as she was finishing up the tacos, she heard a knock on the door. She looked at Stiles. "Be civil." She said as she left to open the door, where Jackson and Lydia were standing. "Hey. I made enough for an army." She said as she hugged him and gave Lydia a smile, even if she did not reciprocate it.
"Come on in. Scott and Allison are upstairs, hopefully not trying to get on a reality show." She stepped aside and let them in.
Stiles always found it strange that somehow, it was Luna the united people who didn't really get along or like each other. "Food is in the kitchen, I'm going to go grab the lovebirds, wish me luck." She said as she ran up the stairs, cautiously walking towards Scott's bedroom.
She made a radio noise before speaking. "White to McCall, copy."
There was silence for a moment before he answered. "McCall to White. Communications are a go. Over."
"Permission to enter the bedroom without being scarred. Over."
Another moment passed before the door opened and Scott smiled at her. "Yes?"
"Dinner. And I swear to god, I do not want to end up on a reality show."
Scott smiled. "They can just blur your face."
She rolled her eyes. "Well, Jackson and Lydia are here. Come on." She left them alone and made her way downstairs and tried to ignore the nagging feeling in her stomach that something bad was going to happen very soon.
When she walked back into the kitchen, Stiles jumped up and greeted her. "Oh thank god. They have been arguing since you left."
Luna rolled her eyes as she grabbed a clean wooden spoon and smacked Jackson on the back of the head with it. He turned, glaring at her but she didn't budge and pointed it at him. "You know the taco rules. No arguing or bickering or you can go to Taco Bell."
They stared each other down for a moment and just as Scott and Allison joined in, Jackson smiled. "I'm sorry."
"Good." She crossed her arms. "Now, apologized to your girlfriend. You're horribly mistreating her."
Both Jackson and Lydia looked at her shocked, but Luna did not budge. Finally Jackson turned to Lydia about to apologize when Luna hit him again. "And mean it."
She saw the muscle in his neck twitch as Jackson looked at Lydia. "I'm sorry that I said you were wrong and I take it back." He said sincerely as he leaned forward and kissed her gently.
Luna smiled as she walked over to the cabinet and pulled out plates for everyone. "Now that is how you apologize." She said as she placed all of the food in the middle of the island and smiled. "Dig in."
It didn't take people very long to do exactly that and Luna watched with smile as she pulled a drink out of the fridge and sipped it with a sigh; if she had been anyone else, she would have said that this is the perfect day but she knew better.
"You're not going to eat?" Allison asked, startling her out of her thoughts.
"My stomach is all wonky. I'll eat later." Stile, Scott and Jackson all looked at her concerned. "I'll be fine guys. I'm not dying."
Jackson was the first to turn back to his plate, mainly because he could feel Lydia's eyes burning in the back of his skull, then Scott and finally Stiles. Luna leaned against the fridge and thought about how she was going to get the food she had already hidden away to Derek while everyone was in the house.
She knew sneaking out was an option, but she shouldn't make it a habit and she knew that Scott would go looking for her and she did not want him to find out about Derek staying in her old house, at least not yet.
As she stood there, Allison looked up to her. "This is, amazing. I really don't think I have had tacos this good before."
Luna smiled at her politeness. "My mom and I went to Mexico one summer. I learned a lot down there."
The room went quiet for a moment; everyone in the room other then Allison knew that Luna did not like to talk about her mother very much because of what had happened to her and they were waiting to make sure that she didn't react in a bad way; they were shocked when the conversation moved right along.
As everyone finished up their food, Luna stood to start portioning off the rest of it for Stiles's dad and Melissa and as she stood, Allison stood as well. "You cooked, you shouldn't have to clean."
Luna laughed. "Oh, I'm not cleaning. Scott is."
Scott's face went from a smile to a frown. "But, come on-"
"You clean and I won't tell Melissa that Allison was in your bedroom, alone, unsupervised. I mean anything could have-"
"Blackmail. I get it."
Luna smiled as she winked at him. "Everyone else is free to go." Jackson walked over to her and hugged her tightly, whispering a thank you before he let her go.
"Anytime." She waved to him and Lydia as they left.
Once it was just them, she turned and looked at Scott. "Just do the minimum."
His face lit up. "Really?" She nodded as she looked at her watch.
"I have to go get started." She turned to Stiles, handing him a plastic container. "This gets to your dad."
"I know."
"Uh huh. I better not get a call tomorrow morning asking where his tacos went because you got hungry again when you got home."
"But what if I do?" He teased as she rolled her eyes.
"Then have cereal."
"We don't have milk."
"Then buy some. Your dad needs it for coffee in the morning anyways."
Stiles sighed and gave her the puppy eyes. "Can't you come with me? I'm sure dad would like to see you."
Luna groaned. "I have 2 pieces to work on."
"You can work on them at my place."
Luna knew what he was trying to do; he was trying to leave Scott and Allison completely alone but she wasn't sure how she felt about that. "Okay, but your floor better be cleared off this time."
"Define cleared off?" He asked as they left the room.
Allison turned to Scott, once again confused. "Are you sure they aren't dating?"
Scott laughed. "Well, they both like each other and refuse to admit it."
"Why?" She asked as she turned the sink on to start the dishes.
Scott shook his head. "We've all been friends for so long, that she doesn't want to mess it up, he doesn't want to mess it up. And she wants him to choose."
"Choose what?"
"Her. She knows how in love he is with Lydia and she doesn't want to be his second choice."
Allison nodded. "Makes sense." She said as she handed Scott another dish. "Have you ever thought about pushing them along?"
He turned to her to see that one of her eyebrows was raised in a mischievous manner. Scott smiled. "What do you have planned?"
What did y'all think? I hate to be one of those people that seem to beg for reviews, but I would really love some feedback. I kind of thrive on it and it lets me know that I'm going in the right direction and should keep writing this story.
So, did you love/hate Allison and Luna hanging out?
Please review, add and favorite. ;) Till next time.
