Chapter 21
"You're brain dead." I told my twin as we were playing monopoly.
"I've got the rules right here! You can't compete with the rules!" Stiles yelled as he waved the rule book in my face.
"I'm the banker! I do and say what I want. If I say you have to pay up front then you have to pay up front!" I backed up my case as Stiles began getting annoyed.
"In the rules it says I can owe you, so the next time I get money i'll give it to you."
"And it also says as long as the banker agrees. I'M NOT AGREEING!"
"JUST GIVE ME A HOUSE!"
"NO! GIVE ME THE MONEY!"
"I SWEAR TO GO, SADIE YOU HAVE FIVE SECONDS TO GIVE ME THAT HOUSE..."
"YOU'RE SO IMMATURE! EXCEPT THAT YOU'RE WRONG AND YOU DON'T GET THE HOUSE!"
"1. 2. 3-"
"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?"
"4."
"YOU'RE NEVER GETTING THAT HOUSE." I shouted as I grabbed the bag of little red houses and ran out of Stiles' room.
"SADIE!" My brother screamed as he ran after me. I ran down the stairs and out the front door. I dangled the houses over the outside trash can.
"EXCEPT YOU'RE WRONG."
"NEVER!"
"THEN SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR LITTLE RED HOUSES!"
"OKAY! Can we make a deal here?"
"Spill."
"If you give me a house i'll give you..."
"Your star wars collection!"
"NEVER. EVER. ARE YOU GETTING THAT COLLECTION!"
"YODA SHALL BE MINE!"
"TOUCH MY YODA AND I WILL INFLICT MENTAL ANGUISH ON YOU SO HARD."
"TRY ME, BITCH!"
"Oh. My. God." I heard Allison say from behind me, I spun around and saw her stood there watching our bickering whilst trying not to laugh.
"Hey." I greeted.
"Okay, Sadie. Give me the houses." Stiles spoke up.
"No, give me Yoda."
"Sadie. I need to talk to you, urgently." Allison interrupted a soon to be wrestling match.
"Okay, come to my room." I said as we walked to my room, me still holding onto the little red houses.
"Okay, so I went to the rave with Matt, as you know. Well when I dropped him off home he left his camera so I just quickly looked through the pictures, you know out of interest, and there was ones of me, ones I don't even know how he got like ones of me in my room and in school like he went full out creeper and i'm really scared-" Allison rushed out.
"Alli." I stopped her as I put my hand on her shoulder. "Do you want me to inflict mental pain onto him?"
"No."
"Physical?"
"Maybe." Allison laughed out.
"It's okay. When I get my hands on him-"
"Sadie, you're very aggressive for such a small person."
"I have no shame."
I walked into the subway station the next day. I was wearing a black Beatles tee, black shorts, mid thigh length black socks, dark navy blue ankle boots and of course my black beanie.
"Scott's with us." I heard Derek say to Isaac as I began walking towards them.
"Really? Where is he now?" Isaac asked as he looked around with fake concern.
"He's looking for Jackson." I answered him as I walked up beside him.
"He's not gonna have it easy tonight either." Derek added as he bent down beside a box full of chains. "None of us will, it's the price you pay for this kind of power. You get the ability to heal, but tonight you're gonna wanna kill anything you can find." Derek handed Isaac some chains.
"Good thing I had my period last week then." Erica spoke up casually as all the boys in the room shifted uncomfortably and I just snorted a laugh.
"The same time as me." I acted excited, it was true but I knew my over enthusiasm was going to annoy the boys.
"Girl power." Erica picked up what I was doing and joined in as I walked over to her and we high fived as the other three stared at us in awe.
"Well this ones for you." Derek spoke up as me and Erica looked over to see Derek holding like a collar with screws in but it goes around your head instead of your neck. Our faces dropped and I just shrugged.
"Human." I bragged as I sing songed the words and pointed to myself.
"Hey, what ya doing?" I asked my twin as I skipped into his room with his sat at the desk looking through something, and our dad walked past.
"Homework." Stiles lied because our dad was walking past.
"It's spring break." Our dad poked his head through the door as I stood by Stiles. "What do you think you're doing?"
"Satisfying my own curiosity." Stiles said as our dad leaned over and shut the yearbook he was looking through.
"I'm going to school, bye." I waved the two off as I went down the stairs and left.
"Yo." I greeted Jackson with a smirk which he returned.
"You're such a tease."
"Are you coming to Lydia's party?" I asked as the two of us walked along the hallway.
"No." He replied simply as we stopped at his locker.
"Why not?"
"You guys don't want me there."
"Jackson, being the kanima and all-" He cut me off as he grabbed my wrist.
"Don't mention that so loud." He squeezed tighter onto my arm as he looked around. "Promise me you won't bring that up again."
"Jackson, let go." I tried tugging away from him which only caused him to hold onto my wrist even tighter.
"Promise me." He squeezed tighter and my arm was practically suffocating, I winced.
"Jackson, you're hurting me." I said, he realized as he let go of my wrist. I looked down and it already bruised over.
"I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it." I said as I rubbed my arm.
"I'm really sorry." He looked really ashamed of himself.
I wore a dark red mid thigh dress and black heels for Lydia's party.
"Hey!" I jumped out on Allison as she gasped. We were stood outside of Lydia's house.
"You frightened me." She said as she hit me on the shoulder playfully, although she didn't seem herself.
"Are you okay?" I asked.
"Yeah."
"No, you're not."
"Lets just get this party over and done with."
"Onward to Lydia's house!" I shouted as I pointed with one arm and laced my other through Allison's as she giggled at me.
We got inside and it was pretty dead, I ditched Stiles at his jeep to find Alli as he was trying to get his huge ass present for Lydia out of his car.
"I spoke to Jackson earlier." I announced to Allison as we stood round the pool.
"What did he say?"
"He was off."
"Kanima off?" Allison asked.
"I guess." I shrugged as I scratched my nose.
"Oh my god! Sadie! What the hell!" Allison screeched as she saw the huge as bruise on my wrist, ew it looked hella gross.
"Oh, I fell." I lied smoothly.
"Fell? Sadie it looks like someone has whacked your arm off metal repeatedly!" Allison, the drama queen.
"Oh, pipe down. It's nothing, wheres the dynamic duo anyway?" I asked as I looked around, I was obviously looking for Stiles and Scott.
"I spot them." Allison pointed to the back door of Lydia's house, I saw the two walking out.
We walked over. "Jackson's not here." I informed the two.
"Yeah, no ones here." Stiles pointed out. He was right, it was pretty dead.
"Maybe it's just early." Scott said.
"Or maybe nobody's coming because Lydia's turned into the town whack job!" Stiles, seriously?
"Well we have to do something because we've completely ignored her for the past two weeks." Allison spoke up.
"You have a point." I nodded at Allison.
"She's completely ignored Stiles for the past ten years." Scott informed us all.
"Bigger point was made." I gestured to Scott as I agreed with him.
"I prefer to think of it as me not having been on her radar." Stiles explained.
"We don't owe her a party." Scott said bluntly.
"What is with the negative attitude today?" I asked as I nudged Scott.
"Just not in the mood."
"Are you on your pewiod Scotty?" I asked childishly as I made fake puppy eyes, I saw Scott's corner of his lips twitch trying to crack a smile.
"What about a chance to be normal?" Allison asked.
"Normal?" Scott questioned confused and slightly insulted.
"Oh na she didn't." I snapped my fingers playfully as everyone rolled their eyes. Was I missing something? Like seriously. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YA'LL TODAY!?
"She wouldn't be the town whack job if it wasn't for us." Allison ignored me.
"Bye." I waved all of them off and pushed past the boys. I feel slightly irrelevant right now. The tension between Alli and Scott hurt me mentally and physically, like seriously what is wrong with them-... Oh my life. Derek bit Allison's mom and because of the code that they have to follow if a hunter gets bit they have to kill themselves and I think Scott has been avoiding Allison for that reason and Allison's getting suspicious because Allison's mom isn't dead yet. That was painful to think. Speaking of Derek, I haven't seen my beta best friend. I haven't seen Isaac, which was odd. Ever since he was bitten it made us closer kinda, it still pisses me off how he struts around thinking he's the shit. Isaac would probably come here if I begged him to... It was the full moon, of course.
"Hey." I jumped as a voice snapped me out of my thoughts, I turned and saw my brother stood there.
"Hey, if I see Jackson I'll let you know." I smiled.
"Okay." My twin retorted as I have a thumbs up, Stiles looked down at my hands and saw the bruise. Damn, should of wore a jacket. When he saw the bruise his eye twitched and he looked up at me.
"What the hell is this." Stiles grabbed my arm and lifted my wrist to my face.
"A bruise, dumbass." I retorted as he sighed in annoyance.
"How did you get it?"
"I fell."
"Dude, that's bullshit."
"No, it's not."
"Sadie. You forget, i'm your twin. I know when you're lying."
"Okay, fine. I was speaking to Jackson earlier and he grabbed my wrist, it was a bit hard but he doesn't know his own strength yet." I shrugged as Stiles' face turned into rage.
"That bastard-" Stiles began but I swiftly cut him off.
"Stiles, chill. I'm okay, go and enjoy the party." I smiled at my older twin.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes! Now go, you loser!" I pushed him away as he waved and ran off.
I was sat on a bench drinking some punch that Lydia gave me, it was actually pretty good. I was pretty bored, I wasn't in the partying mood to be honest. I noticed Jackson walked in and stood up and made my way over to him.
"Look who showed up, I guess i'm that irresistible." I teased as I approached him.
"You are." He smirked at me as he laced his hand through mine. Subtle Jackson, very subtle when my brother is across the pool along with my best friend who are probably staring like what the fuck. Me and Jackson aren't even together, we're like this weird thing in between. I didn't mind though, although he was the kanima. Keeping him distracted on a full moon is the best I can do at least.
Me and Jackson were chilling on a bench, I felt the two boys I've spent most of my life with piercing glares threw Jackson's skull. I knew Jackson was staring at me and I shifted as I looked over to him.
"What?" I asked slightly embarrassed.
"Nothing." He shook his head slightly and looked down to the ground.
"I'm going to go get another drink, i'll be back." I said as he nodded and I stood up.
I walked over to the fountain but stopped dead in my tracks, I heard growling. What the hell? I spun around and saw Scott stood there, fully transformed growling at me.
"Scott?" I questioned wearily as I began backing up. He growled at me even more as he got right up to me. "Scott, this is the full moon. This isn't you, you can control this." I saw Scott get his claws and teeth ready to attack. I kept backing up away from him, I was looking around seeing if I could find my brother... I found him. Dead. He was dead lay by the pool as people kept dancing around him. "NO!" I screamed as I looked at my twin's scratched up and bloody body. "What have you done? Scott what have you done?" I shouted. My eyes kept flickering from my twin to Scott. A part of me died, literally. I don't think i'd be able to move on from this, from Stiles' death. I couldn't take it anymore and dropped to the ground, I began hyperventilating as Scott stood there still growling at me. I closed my eyes.
I re opened my eyes and saw I was on the floor still hyperventilating, I looked up but didn't see Scott, I looked over and didn't see my dead brother. What the actual fuck? I couldn't breath still though, I was practically choking in mid air but the people around me almost didn't notice me on the floor dying.
"SADIE? SADIE!" I heard Scott and Stiles scream from the top of their lungs as they darted over to me.
"Don't-hurt-me." I choked out as I tried to back away from Scott. Was it a dream? Was I hallucinating?
"Sadie? What? Breath, you've gotta breath." Scott crouched down next to me with a hand on my back as Stiles crouched in front of me.
"Sadie? Sadie, okay. Panic attack. I got this. Hold your breath, okay like we did a few weeks ago? That helped didn't it?" Stiles tried to calm me down.
"Hold her breath?" Scott asked.
"Yeah, it is meant to stop a panic attack." Stiles replied simply.
"Here goes nothing." Scott mumbled. I looked at him confused as his face crashed with mine and I realized that Scott kissed me. He held there for a few moments and then pulled away, I was shocked... Not as shocked as my twin though. Wait... What the fuck just happened? Scott just kissed me? What the- Oh my life. I noticed I was breathing normally again and sighed in relief.
"Thank you." I smiled at Scott, his cheeks were red and I bet mine were too. Stiles looked distraught, sickened, crazy. Oh boy.
"What the fuck was that, Scott?" Stiles shouted as he stood up.
"She held her breath when she kissed me." Scott was staring off into space smirking slightly.
"Oh-my-god. pfft fuc- You know what? Whatever. Are you okay?" Stiles asked me as he helped me up. I looked at Stiles and remembered I saw him dead a few moments before, god how i'm glad he's here. I hugged my twin unexpectedly. He hugged me back and after a little while we let go. "Are you sure you're okay?" He repeated as I nodded. I looked over to Scott and hugged him too, this hug felt different. When I hug Scott it was usually chill and friendly, this one was... Loving. He hugged me really tightly, like he didn't want to let me go.
"You're suffocating me." I mumbled to Scott as he let go and gave me an innocent smile.
"Ew, okay. This just got really weird, really fast. This shit better not happen again, otherwise Scott... I swear to god i'll kill you! This is weird, aghhh." Stiles shivered, thanks bro bro, way to ruin the moment. Moment? No, no. Stiles was right, this can't happen again. Allison, Scott loves Allison. Nope, nope, forget it even happened.
"What happened to me?" I asked the two.
"It's Lydia's punch." Stiles replied.
"You two hallucinated too?"
"Yeah, mine was about dad. What was yours about?" Stiles asked me.
"Scott." I answered as Scott turned and looked at me confused. "Scott was transformed, he already killed you. You were dead right in front of me, and I was next."
"It wasn't real." Scott reassured me.
"What was yours about?" I asked him.
"The kanima." Scott replied hesitantly.
"The kanima?"
"And you."
"And me?"
"Yeah."
"Wait, doing wh-" I was cut off by somebody screaming and yelling they couldn't swim. It was Matt's voice, we ran over as we saw people throwing him in. He went over and he as trying to swim even though he was failing. All of a sudden Jackson reached down and pulled Matt out, quickly they both stood there looking around. Matt... We realized that Matt was the one controlling Jackson, Jackson would never help out anyone like that... He'd just stand and laugh. Wait a mintue... MATT? THE CREEP WHO'S BEEN STALKING ALLISON? OH MY GOD. WHAT THE FUCK? WHAT THE FUCK? WHAT THE FUCK? I cannot believe this. Fuck my life.
"It's Matt." I mumbled as Matt gave us a glare and walked away from us, Jackson disappeared too. The cops sirens began ringing and everyone ran out of the house, I ran alongside my brother. As we got outside we saw a very angry Matt stood by a car with Jackson... The fully transformed kanima crouched beside him wrapping his tail around Matt's leg like he was his pet. I looked over and saw Scott and noticed he saw Matt as well as me and Stiles, I looked back round and saw that Matt wasn't there anymore.
Seriously, fuck my life.
