The next time Stiles woke he was in his bedroom. It was empty. He was remembering what happened before he fainted. And was kind of impressed with himself. He was right. Why did anyone ever doubt him? Whatever, it doesn't matter anyway cause it worked. He really wanted to call Bobby and tell it was successful. But he'd have to wait. Cause he didn't think he could go to the Jungle right now. So he'd do it tomorrow. Maybe on his way to school. Wait, school! What time was it? Shit he's missing school it's 9:00 am. Why didn't anyone wake him? With all his moving around Derek opened the window and slid inside.

"Stiles what are you doing?" At that Stiles fell off his bed and glared at Derek.

"I should put a bell on you."

"Ha Ha, now why are you moving? You should be resting."

"Aw Sourwolf, I never knew you cared." He dramatically held his hand above his heart. "But I've gotta go to school." Derek just gave him a weird look and sighed.

"Stiles you're injured you should stay home. How are you even gonna walk?" And at that, he gave him his show me eyebrow.

"Well, I'm all for staying home, because I'm tired but the school's gonna call my dad. And do you wanna tell him why I skipped." Silence. "I thought so. Anyway, why are you here?" Stiles said as he slowly got up and went to change.

"Scott had to go to school. So I was supposed to stay until you woke up." Stiles realized what he said next was rude but he really wanted to call Bobby. And having Derek there he couldn't.

"Well thanks, Derek, But I'm up so you could leave now. I'm fine now." He picked up his backpack and left his room. Stiles then slowly went down the stairs. Then grabbed his car keys and left to school. Kind of.

Sure he headed to school. He just took a left turn down into town and parked near a grocery store. The parking lot was pretty packed for it being so early. But anyway Stiles went to the least crowded part and took out his phone and dialed Bobby's number. After a few rings, Bobby picked up.

"Singer"

"Uh yeah hey Bobby this is Stiles remember," Stiles said.

"Oh yeah, did you have any problems with the Wendigo."

"No not really I found it hiding in a cave. And I lured it out and set it on fire. Thanks for the fire thing by the way it went down pretty easy after that." Stiles said thankfully.

"You took down your first Wendigo no problem huh. You're pretty good kid. You have any place you're heading next." Next. What'd he mean next?

"No, I don't really have a next." He later blames his fainting before for his slow thinking.

"You could come down to South Dakota, near Sioux Falls. We could meet up and I could teach you a bit more. If you want." Stiles really wanted to and South Dakota was only a day's drive. Man, he really wants to but he'd have to tell his dad. And what exactly would he tell him? He must have been silent too long because Bobby said, "You don't have to kid if you're busy come down some other time." Stiles was gonna say something that was probably stupid but well he can't always be the smart one.

"Uh, I'm actually still in school." Neither spoke. Stiles because he was scared Bobby would tell him he's too young. And Bobby because, What! How young was this kid? He knew he was young but.

"Kid how old are you?" Damn it Stiles should've kept his mouth shut. But if he was ever gonna meet this guy he had to tell him the truth now.

"I'm 16. And I know what you're probably gonna say but I need to know more. And if it's not from you I learn more myself." Phew. Man, he let out a breath.

"You're 16 and you took down a Wendigo yourself. Damn kid. But you shouldn't be mixed up in this supernatural crap storm. And even though I know this is stupid but I'll teach you. Only if you follow my rules while you're here. And I wouldn't mind an extra set of hands." Stiles couldn't believe he said yes. I mean like he still would teach him. Luck was definitely on his side today. "But if you still have some normalcy like school you should continue it." Stiles frowned if he went to school he couldn't be taught. Was this him turning him down? "But summer is in 3 weeks. So come on by then." YES! Stiles gave a mini fist pump. Oh, wait, his dad. What would he tell his dad?

"Um, Bobby. I live with my dad. And he doesn't know about all the supernatural yet. And I like to keep that way, to be honest. But I don't know how to get away." Damn the kid still had a family. Why was he even involved in the first place.

"How about you say you got an internship. You could work for me. I'm sure you could come up for what type of job, You're a smart kid. Stay for the summer and then head back when you're done. Alright?" Ok, Stiles could work with that.

"Yeah. And thanks for everything Bobby." Stiles said smiling even though Bobby couldn't see it.

"Bye kid."

"Bye!" And Stiles hung up and looked around the parking lot. It was looking a lot emptier. He looked at the time and decided school could wait another day. So he headed home to prepare a proper story. And try to find a way to trick a werewolf into believing a lie.
