When the sun rose so did Victoria, she turned the TV on trying to get over her heartbreak, but every channel she turned to had some sort of love in it, making it hurt her all over. She finally gave up and began reading the room service menu. "What are you doing?" Derek yawned sitting up as she ignored him. She blamed him for what happened the night before. "Tori, what happened?" he got up and made his way into the bathroom not getting a single word from her. Victoria picked up the phone still looking at the menu.

"Yes, can I please get the scrambled eggs and bacon sent to room 423 please?" she asked grabbing her card off the desk. She hung up as Derek walked back into the room.

"You got me something right?" Victoria turned the TV back on still ignoring him. "What the hell is your problem?"

"Really, Derek, you're asking me that? I helped you and you ruined me," she barked.

"How did I ruin you?"

"Please, weren't you the one who threatened Stiles, he broke up with me because of you."

"Good," he sighed sitting back on the bed.

"Good, that's all you can say?" she barked as he looked at her glaring.

"Can you stop yelling, you're going to wake the entire place."

"I am going to do whatever I please, I can't believe he would listen to you, of all people," she growled standing up. "The only way to get what you want is by fear you scare anyone and they will do what you say in a heartbeat," she snapped getting in his face.

"Back away, Tori."

"Or what, you can't scare me, Derek, I'm not afraid," she grabbing him from under his chin. "You don't scare me anymore," she smiled. He soon stood up grabbed her arms and holding them in one hand pinned her to the wall and with his other hand wrapped around her neck slowly getting tighter with his grip. "Derek, stop, please I can't breathe, stop please, I'm sorry, please," she begged as a few tears rolled down her face. He let her go and she fell to the floor holding her neck as a knock came from the door.

"Room service." Victoria slowly stood up and looked at Derek with more fear than she ever had in her life. She opened the door and let the server come in. She threw Derek the key and rested her hand on her neck.

"I…I can't…whatever," she sighed seriously walking out the door leaving him by himself. Victoria walked the entire way to school not feeling her normal self, but suddenly realized why. "Tonight's the…"

"Victoria!" Lydia called from the steps of the school breaking the young girl's thoughts. She ran over giving Victoria a hug with a huge grin.

"Why are you so…happy?" she asked as Lydia chuckled not answering. Lydia opened the doors and the two walked over to Victoria's locker, Lydia still creeping her out with the smile. "Ok, spit it out, Lydia," she laughed.

"Spit what out?" Victoria laughed and rolled her eyes. She looked over to Scott's locker and found Stiles and Scott talking, Scott looking more pissed off than he ever had been, but she looked at Stiles and nearly wanted to crawl in the corner and die.

"Stop bothering yourself with him," Lydia sighed looking over at what Victoria was looking at.

"Lydia, you won't get it until you and Jackson…"

"Please, split up? That's a laugh," Lydia laughed as the two made their way down the hall again.

"Well it hurts ok…every time I look, hear his name or voice, you just won't get it."

"And you need to find a rebound," Lydia smiled as Victoria rolled her eyes.

"You really think I'm that shallow?"

"No, but you never know how desperate people are."

"I can't…"

"Hey," Allison smiled walking over to the two. "What are you two talking about?" For Allison's break up the other night she was pulling herself together a lot more faster than Victoria.

"Telling Victoria here, how she needs to get over Stiles," Lydia smiled.

"Wait, you two…broke up?"

"Yeah, my older brother freaked him out and listened to him."

"Now, there's a rebound."

"Victoria, that doesn't sound like you," Allison sighed ashamed looking at the girl shocked.

"It isn't, Lydia just is saying crap," Tori laughed thinking Lydia all as a joke. The bell rang and Victoria pulled herself from her friends to make it to class. Victoria took her seat and was soon joined by Jackson, who smiled like an idiot.

"So I heard you and Stiles, split after the lock-in last night, sorry about that," he said faking his pity.

"Thanks, I can so tell your upset," she squinted rolling her eyes.

"Come on, Tori, I can be your re-"

"Don't say it," she snapped pointing at him. "If I would have a rebound you would be the last I would come crawling too," she said slowly trying to seduce him. "Crawling on hands and knees whispering your name, Jackson," she whispered slowly in his ear. "Like the old days," she added as her breath pressed against his ear. The pencil broke in his hand and she smiled and backed away as the second bell went off, Jackson's breathing a little heavier. "But, you would be the last out of being desperate," she smiled before grabbing her book out. Jackson sat there a bit excited remembering their past ignoring whatever the teacher was saying and soon the bell had rung.

Victoria picked up her books and walked out of the class. She shuffled through her bag looking for her phone when someone slammed into her and knocked her on the floor. "Crap, Tori, I'm so sorry," he said helping her up. She looked up and starred a bit shocked.

"Hunter…no, it's my fault," she smiled as the seventeen year old leaned against the locker doors. "I wasn't paying attention," she laughed as he nodded. "So good game last week," she smiled.

"Oh I thought the only person you pay attention to was Stiles," he chuckled as she shook her head.

"No, I watch the game, and besides Stiles and I broke up, I'm…surprised you didn't find out yet," she said furrowing her brows.

"I haven't talked to Lydia yet," he chuckled as Victoria busted out laughing. "So you're a midfielder right?"

"Ah…so you do know your positions," he chuckled impressed as the warning bell went off. Hunter saw in her face that she was going to be upset over being late and he nodded. "We can walk and talk," he smiled as she did too almost falling for him. The two walked down the hall talking about the lacrosse game coming up and soon she was standing outside her class. "So you doing anything tonight?"

"Tonight, I don't…"

"I'll pick you up at seven?"

"Well…um…"

"Ok, so where do you live?"

"Well you can pick me up at red roof inn, I am staying there since my house is going through…renovations," she sighed as Hunter nodded and walked away to the late bell not caring if he was late or on time. Victoria sat down and Lydia pocked her.

"You are rebounding Hunter James?"

"No, I don't rebound, I'm just going out with him."

"As a date?" Lydia smiled gently.

"Well…crap," Victoria sighed smacking her forehead.

"Well at least it's the second hottest guy on the lacrosse team."

"Lydia," Victoria chuckled.

"Ladies, do we have problem over there?"

"No sir," Victoria answered the teacher before the two girls laughed.
