Disclaimer: I don't own teen wolf.

realityalways-getsintheway: I'm glad I've channeled Deaton well :) as for adventures, hm... I'm not sure yet when I want all of their 'things' to mesh together, but it will happen eventually.

purpleheeead: I am a sucker for Stiles/OC fics as well! and yeah I didn't really realize it until late in the game that their love was slightly one-sided. But DON'T WORRY! It won't be like that forever. :)

Addie missed school again on Thursday, Stiles and Scott weren't able to come keep her company either since they had extra lacrosse practice for their upcoming game. Deaton had came home early and made dinner, "Eat your vegetables." he told her.

"Why? Is it cuz they come from the earth and will help me get better?" she asked.

"No, it's because that's what authority figures are supposed to say. 'Eat your vegetables,' 'Don't do drugs'. You know the normal stuff." Deaton answered

Addie slammed her fork down on her table. "Tell me what is it!" she said, "What is it that I can do to get better? Because obviously this whole 'rest' thing isn't doing it."

Deaton sighed, "I told you Addie, it's not an option."

"Let me make that decision since it's my body." she countered.

Deaton put his fork down as well and put his head in his hands. "Okay..." he said. "Have you ever heard of a succubus?"

"It's that like a sex demon or something?" she asked.

"In a sense yes." he replied nodding.

Addie paused, "So... you want me, to have sex?"

Deaton groaned, "Ugh I am not prepared for this... No. A succubus gets it's life energy by taking it from others, since it can not generate its own. This rule can generally apply to you as well to help regain your lost energy."

"So... Sex?" she questioned again.

"Let's stick with physical contact." Deaton provided. "Certain aspects of physical contact can do the trick. Like kissing, or petting."

"Petting?" Addie let out a laugh, "Oh my god, what generation are you from?"

Deaton sighed once again and chose not to answer.

Addie slowly stopped laughing. "How dangerous is it?" she asked hesitantly.

"For you? Virtually none." he responded. "But for other person, it could really hurt them. If you took too much, it could put them in a coma, or worse.. Kill them."

"So I'm never gonna be able to have a normal relationship without possibly killing him?" she asked sadly.

"No, this is where you differ from a succubus. You can control it." Deaton said reassuringly.

"How?" she asked.

"Unfortunately... With practice." he said grimly.

"Great." Addie said as she put her elbow on the table and set her head on her hand.

On Friday, Addie dragged herself out of bed to go to school. Before school started, she met Stiles and Scott at their lockers.

"Well look who decided to show her lovely face today." Stiles said playfully as he through his arm gently around her shoulders.

"I've already missed so much," she said pushing Stiles' arm off her, much to his dismay. "If I miss anymore I might as well just hold myself back and save the school the trouble."

"Oh c'mon," Scott spoke, "You're the smartest person we know, a few days isn't going to kill you." smiling at his friend.

Addie was about to reply when she was cut off by another person approaching their group. "Hey Addie." spoke the boy, who she recognized as a boy named Josh from a few of her classes last year. He was also on the lacrosse team with Stiles and Scott.

"Oh, hey Josh." she replied being friendly.

"You going to the game tonight?" he asked.

She was about to reply when she was cut off by a heated Stiles, "Yup, she is. She's our personal cheerleader, right Scott?"

Scott replied with a low, "Uh yeah."

Addie looked up at Stiles with an angered look, 'what was he doing?' she thought. 'He had always been protective of her, but the way he's acting is kinda too far. This could be my chance to practice.'. She gently pushed Stiles away into Scott, and looked back up at Josh with a smile. "Yeah, I always come to the games. Why? You want me to cheer for you too?" she asked playfully.

"Well now that you mentioned it..." Josh started with a smile. "I was actually wondering what you were doing afterwards? I was thinking we could go out."

Stiles was about to interject that she wasn't interested, but she beat him to an answer, "Yeah I'd love to." Addie said.

Stiles' face fell, 'did that really just happen? What the hell! Addie never dates! What is she doing? She's supposed to-' he stopped mid thought, 'she's supposed to be with me.' he finished sadly. Before anyone else could speak and make this situation even worse for him, Stiles smacked the locker he was leaning on and walked off. Scott followed behind, briefly giving Addie an apologetic look.

"Dude wait up!" Scott called, as he ran to catch his friend. When he made it to his side he said, "I get that you're upset man, but you can't be mad at her."

Stiles turned quickly and faced his friend. "Oh, so I'm not allowed to be mad that she just tore my heart out, did a little Mexican hat dance on it, and then shoved it back down my throat?"

"Yeah you can be mad about all of that, but not directly at her." Scott replied. "You can't blame her for not choosing you, when you never put yourself in the game."

Stiles sighed dejectedly and leaned against the wall near him. "But what if she doesn't feel the same way?" he asked softly, knowing his friend could hear him.

"What if you got in a car accident? What if she got in an accident? What if an asteroid hit earth, killing us all? What if those things happened and you never got to tell her how you really felt?" Scott questioned. "You shouldn't let 'what ifs' stop you from moving forward in life."

Stiles looked over at his friend and raised an eyebrow. "When did you become so smart?"

After her friends left much to her confusion and annoyance, Addie continued talking to Josh. They had planned to go out after the game that night, and Addie was nervous. She would admit that Josh was attractive, but the only reason she had agreed was to test out this succubus-like theory that Deaton had. It was horrible to use him, especially to possibly suck out his life, but she just needed to know.

Stiles' actions had really confused her, though. He seemed really angry that she had been talking to Josh. Did he think she was ignoring him? If so, that was stupid. No boy, not even Scott, could ever come between Stiles and her. If a boy ever took interest in her, 'which is rare' she thought, and he had a problem with Stiles, then that guy was not welcome in her life. Because Stiles was a big part of her life, one that she just wasn't willing to give up. He had always been a constant in her life, and visa versa. 'A life without Stiles?' the thought quickly saddened her. She had always imagined that when he finally got the nerve to tell Lydia how he felt, that things would change. But she secretly hoped he felt the same about needing to stay in each other's lives. This would definitely need to be something she brings up in their next conversation. But until then, Addie had a date to plan for.

The day quickly passed, and before anyone knew it, it was game time. As the players were coming from the locker rooms toward the field, Addie caught Stiles by his jersey and dragged him back.

"Just because I'm not actually playing, doesn't mean I allowed to blaze my own trail." Stiles said stiffly.

"Well, I wanted to talk to you before the game, but you were busy earlier." Addie said.

"I wasn't the only one that was busy." he replied trying to keep his jealousy in check.

"Yeah I'm sorry that I'm so popular," she said sarcastically. "Everyone wants some of this," she gestured towards herself. "But the waiting list is pretty long. You should feel lucky that you are VIP."

Stiles let out a small smile, with Addie's beautifully innocent eyes looking up at him, it was hard to stay upset. "Just, uh... Don't go giving those VIP passes out to just anyone." he said back.

Addie smiled brightly, glad that her friend was no longer upset with her. "Okay now," she pushed him towards the field. "Go before you get in trouble."

Stiles gave her a quick nod and began walking away. As he walked away he mentally kicked himself for not asking her to ditch her date with Josh.

The game was pretty eventful, Scott ended up making the final winning shot, and Addie cheered for him along with his mother, who she had sat by. The crowd had rushed the field, and Addie had lost sight of both Stiles and Scott. Feeling slightly disappointed she began walking towards the parking lot when a hand caught her elbow. Turning around she caught the eyes of Josh. "Hey!" she called out over the crowd.

"Hey! I'm just gonna go change! But I'll meet you in the parking lot okay?" Josh said.

Addie nodded affirmatively and he walked away towards the locker room. She continued her venture toward the parking lot and went to find Josh's car. He had a Porsche like Jackson, so it was easy to find.

More quickly that Addie had expected, Josh came jogging out towards the parking lot. It seemed he had beat most of the team to the locker room, and the crowd still seemed to be celebrating on the field. So the parking lot was relatively empty.

"So Jackson is having a victory party at his house, we could go there? Or somewhere more... private if you like." Josh said with a smirk.

Addie tilted her head with faux flirtatiousness, "Just what kinda girl do you think I am?"

Josh stepped closer and slightly leaned down. "I'm hoping you're kind who won't mind me kissing her before the date even starts."

Addie became nervous, and bit her lip. Josh took this as confirmation and leaned his lips down to hers.

Before she even knew what was happening, their lips had met. Addie slowly closed her eyes, and moved her lips with his; it had been so long since she had actually kissed someone. She generally didn't date, because having guy best friends had usually steered guys away. Josh suddenly took a dramatic intake of breath, and Addie opened her eyes. What she saw had horrified her. Josh's face had drained of all its color, and dark veins protruded out of his pale gray skin. His face held a dazed look and his eyes slowly closed as he began to fall toward the ground. Addie didn't even think of catching him, she just watched him fall unconscious to the cold hard ground. After a few moments, she finally let out a horrified scream.

Stiles and Scott walked out of the locker room. He had just broke the news to his friend that Derek had been let out of police custody because it was confirmed that the killer of the girl, who happened to be Laura Hale, had been identified as an animal.

They had just started walking down the front steps of the school, when a scream ripped through the air. Briefly looking at each other, they both took off towards the scream. They had reached the parking lot, but saw nothing. When suddenly someone stumbled out from in between the parked cars. Stiles immediately recognized the person as Addie and he urgently ran over to her. Her caught her by the arms as she began to fall down. "Addie! What happened?" he asked worriedly as he noticed the tears cascade down her cheeks.

Addie ripped her arms away from him and back away, "He's dead." she cried.

Stiles and Scott both took this time to look between the cars and saw a person on the ground. Scott ran over and flipped the person over, "It's Josh!" he said to his friend. Scott cleared his senses, and focused on the boy on the ground. "He's alive!" he said once he heard a faint heart beat.

"It's okay Ads," Stiles said repeating what his friend just said. "He is alive." he tried to reach out to her again but she back away.

"This is my fault." she said to herself as tears spilled again. Both her friends heard her perfectly though.

"Addie, you couldn't have done this." Scott said from the ground below them as he took out his phone and dialed his mom's number.

"No... I did." She said bringing her hands to her face. Stiles stepped towards her again, but she held out her hands and tried to keep distance. "No! Just stay away from me Stiles! You need to stay away!"

Her words had hurt and confused him, and he felt helpless as Scott's mother ran up to them along with his father.

"What happened?" Scott's mother asked as she checked the boy.

"We don't know." Scott replied, "He was just like this when we got here."

"I'm gonna call in an ambulance." said Sheriff Stilinski as he took out his phone.

Addie took this moment to turn around and run. She ran away from the scene and into the nearby forest.

"Addie!" Stiles called out about to run after her, but was stopped when his father grabbed his shoulder firmly. He tore his gaze away from his father, after trying to convince him to let him go, and he lost sight of her. She had disappeared into the night.
