We arrived at the back of the school's fence. Stiles turned the engine off and we all got out and walked over to the fence. "Hey, no, just me. Someone needs to keep watch". I started climbing the fence.

"I'm not staying here. I'm in the mood for adventure. Besides, Scott, you're the one who's closest to a wolf. You can be our watch dog". I jumped over the fence and I could hear Stiles laughing.

"Stiles just stay here". Scott grabbed Stiles arm to stop him from climbing like me.

"Okay, how come it's starting to feel like you're batman and I'm robin? I don't wanna be robin all the time". Scott gave him a weird look.

"Nobody's batman or robin any of the time". He started climbing.

"Not even some of the time?". I started walking towards the bus.

"Scott let's go before someone sees us". I could still hear them fighting.

"Just stay here". Stiles sighed and turned around.

"Oh my god". I heard Scott jump from the fence. I opened the door to the bus and walked up the steps. The inside of the bus smelled like blood and it was everywhere. I looked out the window over to Scott who paused outside the door with his eyes closed.

"Come on. Let's get this over with". He opened his eyes and it's as though I brought him back from his thoughts. He walked in and grabbed the seat. He flinched away and blinked repeatedly.

"Scott what's wrong? Did you remember something?" He kept looking at the aisle in front of me. He let go of the seat and walked forward to me. I was near the bloodied seats and I could smell it even more. Scott suddenly yelled and jumped back. He was definitely remembering last night. He grabbed his chest and backed away.

"Scott, tell me. What happened?" Before he could say anything Stiles started honking uncontrollably and Scott grabbed my arm and dragged me out of the bus. He let go and I ran towards the fence.

"Get on my back" Scott yelled at me.

"What? You're gonna drop me". He growled at me and I didn't want to see what would happen next so I decided to climb on his back despite my fears. He jumped on the truck then jumped over the fence. I let go of his back and we both rolled on the grass. I had a harder landing then him and hurt my shoulder in the process. I got up ignoring the pain since it wasn't something to worry about and jumped in the back of Stiles jeep. Once we were in Scott started yelling "Go, Go!" to Stiles. He turned around quickly and drove forward fast.

"What the hell was that Scott? First, never growl at me ever again, and second, please do not jump 10 feet in the air when I'm on your back. Especially if you are not going to catch me when there is a freaking hard landing". Scott sent me a low apology.

"Did it work? Did you remember?" Stiles asked him.

"Yeah I was there last night, and the blood. A lot of it is mine". Stiles gave him a surprised look.

"So you did attack him". Scott shook his head.

"No, I saw glowing eyes in the bus but they weren't mine. I think they were Derek's". I held on to the seat for dear life trying to buckle myself in.

"Stiles can you please just slow down before I get a heart attack?". He turned left without slowing down.

"What about the driver?" Scott was holding on to the outside of the car.

"I think I was actually trying to protect him". Something did not make sense to me.

"Wait, why would Derek help you remember that he's the one who attacked the driver?" Stiles kept going faster.

"It has to be a pack thing. Like an initiation. You do the kill together". Let's hope they actually didn't do that.

"Because ripping someone's throat out is a real bonding experience" Scott added sarcastically. I leaned forward and grabbed on to Stiles shoulder.

"I swear to god if you don't slow down I am seriously going to jump out of this car before we get into an accident". Stiles looked at me and finally slowed down. I looked over to Scott. "And Scott, either way you didn't do it which means-" He gave us a smile.

"I can go out with Alison. Stiles smile vanished.

"I was actually thinking around the lines where you won't kill us". I backed up to my seat and laid my head back.

"oh yeah, that too". I laughed at his response even though it wasn't really funny.

The next day, during the last 5 minutes of History class the teacher gave us time to talk. I was talking to Emilie, Caitlin and Josh.

"Hi girls, did ya miss me?" Josh was holding Caitlin's hand so I figured they were going out now.

"Not really. It's been a lot less loud since you've been gone you know?" I shot a grape at Emilie.

"Now that is just rude. You have to stick with peace and love my friends". We all laughed and kept talking about random things.

"Oh hey guess what? I talked to my mom about this Friday and she said you guys can sleep over as long as we pick up whatever messes we make". They nodded their heads and told me they would be over after supper.

School was over and everyone was getting ready to go on the buses. I couldn't find Stiles or Scott so I went to go talk with Emilie, Caitlin and Josh. We were standing outside when Stiles came over. I didn't see him of course so he yelled in my ear which caused me to jump.

"Was that really necessary Stiles?" He stood behind me and wrapped his arm around my waist.

"Yeah sort of. Scott and Alison left me so I was stuck roaming the halls until I thought, it would be a good idea to go scare my girlfriend". I tried not to roll my eyes at him.

"Stiles you know them right? Emilie and Caitlin. You might not know Josh though so Josh, Stiles and Stiles, Josh". Stiles said hi but Josh was shy and just nodded his head towards him.

"So where were you, I couldn't find you so I came to talk to with these lovely people". I sent a wink over to Emilie and Caitlin.

"I was with Scott and Alison but they got boring. You are much more interesting". I nodded my head and heard the buses about to leave so I let my friends go.

"Ladies, Josh". I waved to them and left.

"where did you park again?" Stiles shook his head and grabbed my hand leading the way.

"I think you have a case of long term memory loss". We arrived at his jeep and I jumped in.

"That's not fair. There is an entire procedure you have to go through to know that kind of stuff". He nodded his head.

"Point taken. So what are we doing tonight?" I remembered I had hockey tonight. "First you have to drive me to hockey for 3:30 so you might want to step on it because I still have to get dressed".

I got dressed and went on the ice. We lost 1-0 against the boys sadly. I decided I would take a shower at home so it took me less than 5 minutes to get undressed. I walked over to the jeep and met Stiles.

"You played good once again". I smiled and threw my bag and sticks in the back. "Thanks". He started the car and drove me home.

"Man, you smell after hockey. No wonder you always take showers right after". I hit him in the shoulder.

"Just drive".

We arrived home and I told Stiles to wait in my living room while I took a shower. I came out with a towel wrapped around me and went in my room. I got dressed into a pair of dark skinny jeans and a beige long sleeve shirt. I let my hair dry naturally. I came out of my room and walked downstairs to go see Stiles. I couldn't find him. I looked in the kitchen then in the living room.

"Stiles, if you're planning on scaring me it won't work so you might as well come out now". I opened the coat closet and Stiles jumped out at me. I yelled and fell to the floor covering my head.

"and you said it wouldn't work". I let out a deep breath and got up laughing.

"Is it like scare Samantha day or something? Because that is the second time you do that today". I grabbed my jacket and went for the door.

"There should actually be an international event like that because it is just so fun to see people's reactions after you scare them, you know?" It was still light outside but you could see the sun going down.

"Yeah, it's fun for the person scaring people but not the others". I walked down from the porch and Stiles followed, closing the door behind him.

"So, where we going?" Stiles asked. I walked out onto the street and stood there.

"Wherever we want to go". He grabbed my hand and we started walking down the street.

"Well there's not that much that's interesting here so I guess we can just walk around". I entwined our fingers and walked slower than usual.

"You know what?" He looked sideways to me.

"What?" I let go of his hand and twirled around.

"I feel awesome right now. Like nothing is going wrong at the moment. I feel free". He gave out a laugh and walked up to me. He wrapped his arm around my waist to stop me from spinning.

"You should stop spinning like that before you fall on your face like when you ran into that locker". I leaned into him a little since I was dizzy. I frowned at the memory.

"That was all your fault. I was wondering what you and Scott were doing and next thing I know I'm on my ass. Then some idiot 12th grader tells me to watch where I walk. Oh and instead of helping me up and asking if I'm okay you two just burst out laughing". We started walking again on the sidewalk.

"I'm sorry about that but it was just too funny, I couldn't help myself". He started laughing again thinking about it. I looked up in front of me and saw a small animal roaming the streets. I let go of Stiles hand and walked closer to it. Once I was close I noticed it was only a puppy. It had soft black and white fur and a long muzzle. It looked like a Siberian husky.

"Sam, I wouldn't get close to it if I were you". I knelt down in front of it and called it over ignoring Stiles. It walked over to me. I noticed it was a girl. I picked her up and walked over to Stiles.

"Awe, I think I'll bring you home with me. Maybe get Scott to look at you". Stiles thought it was a bad idea.

"What if it belongs to someone. It could be on its way home right now". I gave him a sad puppy face and made the dog face him.

"Stiles, look at her. Isn't she just adorable? I'll even put up 'found dog' posters all over town, it's not like it has a tag anyways". He stuffed his hands in his pockets.

"Fine but it's, she, is staying at your house". I jumped up in happiness with the dog in my arms.

We got to my house and I put the dog down.

"This may be your new home so take a look around my friend, ooh Stiles she looks just like the husky I had when I was younger except that one was a boy called Max." He looked my way and back to the dog who was smelling everything.

"What happened to him?" I turned away from him and hung my jacket up.

"Phil took him back but that's alright because now I have her and I think I will call you... Chinook". He walked over to me.

"That is the perfect name for her. But I have to go home". He kissed my cheek and I waved him bye. I closed the door and grabbed a bowl of water and some crackers. I went upstairs and put the bowl on the floor and the crackers on my bed. I went back down and picked up Chinook.

"I bet you're thirsty". I closed my bedroom door behind us and put her on the ground. She went over to the bowl and started drinking. For the rest of the night I hung out with her, letting her out to go pee every once in a while. I also made sure that she didn't chew on anything she could sink her teeth in.

I was getting ready for bed when my mom started yelling. I opened my door and ran into Scott's room. I walked in to see Stiles sitting on Scott's bed and my mom holding a baseball bat.

"Do you guys even play baseball?" Stiles asked my mom. The lights turned on and I saw Scott walk into his room.

"Can you please tell your friend to use the front door". My mom asked Scott.

"We lock the front door. He wouldn't be able to get in". She held up her arms.

"Yeah exactly and by the way, do either of you 3 care that there is a police enforced curfew?" We all looked at each other and shrugged our shoulders.

"Not really" we told her. She threw the bat on the bed beside Stiles.

"No? Alright then. That's about enough parenting for me for one night. So goodnight". She walked out and yelled once more. I walked out to see Chinook rolling around on the ground.

"What the hell is that?" I went over to her and picked her up.

"This is my new dog Chinook, or will be if we don't find its owner". Stiles and Scott came out and Chinook started growling towards Scott. He looked towards the dog and his eyes suddenly flashed yellow. As soon as that happened she stopped barking and went quiet again.

"No, no no no no". My mom kept shaking her head.

"Please mom? I'll take care of her, I swear. Scott works at the vet, he could bring her food and check to see if she's fixed and give her all the shots she needs". I looked towards Scott hoping he would agree.

He responded with: "yeah sure, whatever". My mom finally gave in, probably because she was so tired and didn't feel like arguing.

"Fine but if that thing even pees once in my house, out the door it goes". I nodded my head and she walked back to her room. We all went into Scott's room. I was still holding the dog tightly to my chest. Scott grabbed a chair and I sat next to Stiles on Scott's bed.

"What?" Scott asked.

"My dad left to the hospital a few hours ago, it's the bus driver. They said he succumbed to his wounds". Scott and I looked at him not knowing what that meant.

"Succumbed?" Scott asked him.

"Scott, he's dead". He looked down mouth open in surprise. He got up and went to his window.

"I need to see Derek". Before I could stop him he jumped out his window and ran for the woods. Chinook barked in my arms. I sighed and fell on Scott's bed letting go of the dog. I heard Stiles jump on the bed beside me.

"Well it looks like someone loves you". Chinook suddenly started licking my face nonstop. I had to pull her off to stop her from licking me. I put her on the ground and she ran out of the room

"I just hope Scott is okay". I put a pillow on Stiles lap and laid down on it.

"I'm sure he can take care of himself". I felt his hand massage my head. I yawned and closed my eyes.

"Maybe you should go to bed". I lifted my head up off of him and got up.

"and maybe you should go home and also get some rest". I walked over to my room and found Chinook chewing on my sock.

"Now that's just wonderful". I turned around to face Stiles.

"Hey, you're the one who wanted to keep her". He told me.

"Because she's homeless and I don't want her getting hit by a car. I also don't want her to be alone". I wrapped my arms around his neck and he wrapped his around my waist. He leaned in close and told me

"What about me? I'm alone tonight". I kissed him on the lips.

"What about your dad?" He shook his head.

"He's working all night". I made a sad sound.

"Poor Stiles. All alone tonight. What are you going to do? I have an idea. You could stay here for a while longer". He kissed me and brought me down on my bed.

"That sounds like a good idea". I pulled his lips down onto mine again. Chinook started barking at us. Stiles pushed her away with his hand, his lips never leaving mine.

"At least I know, that dog is good for something". Stiles got off of me and stood next to my bed. I looked towards my doorway to find my mom standing there.

"You" She pointed towards Stiles. "Go home". He ran out of my room in a hurry and out the front door. "And you". She walked towards me and sat on my bed. "Don't do anything you aren't ready to do". I wasn't sure what she meant at first but then I caught on.

"Whoa, mom, Stiles isn't like that and you know it. He understands me and what I feel". She nodded her head.

"I know, I know. Just, making sure". I went back under my covers.

"Can I please go to bed now?" She kissed my cheek and left my room. I shoved my face in my pillow and yelled. That was awkward situation with Stiles involved #3. How many more times will this happen?

"Thanks dog". Chinook looked at me with her head cocked to the side. "You're too adorable to stay mad at". I picked her up and put her on my bed. She snuggled over at the end of my bed and we both fell asleep.
