" You kissed him, Lydia! Am I just supposed to forgive you?" Allison snapped. She raised her hands in the air, sorta looking like Stiles when he's frazzled, and then dropped them to her sides.
" Yes?" Lydia asked, giving a nervous smile.
" No!" Allison and Faith shout together.
They were at Allison's locker.
Allison suddenly whirled on Faith. " You're one to talk! You knew about the whole time!"
" I was sworn to secrecy." Faith defended.
" By who?"
" Myself. But I did it to keep this from happening." Faith gestured to Lydia and Allison. " You guys are arguing like a married couple."
" What's this about a married couple?" Stiles' voice was mocking as he came up behind me.
" Them! I can't deal with my two best friends sometimes!"
" Oh, hey Lydia. Didn't see you there."
Lydia only rolled her eyes before returning to the problem at hand. " What do I have to do for you to forgive me?"
Allison looked around for a moment before her eyes landed on Stiles. She winked at him before turning back to Lydia. " I request one thing of you, then you'll be forgiven."
" What is it?"
" Let Stiles take you to the dance. "
" What?" Stiles and Lydia asked.
" Oh, just wow. I really wish I had my phone on me. I left it in my locker. Lydia, if you could see your face right now."
Lydia didn't seem too amused, though. " Anything but that."
" Nope. It's either that or I'll hate you forever."
Lydia groaned loudly before turning and stomping away. She took Stiles by the arm and dragged him with her then she said something. Something along the lines of, " If we're going together, we need to do something about...your whole existence."
Faith laughed and turned to Allison. " See you at lunch?"
" Yeah."
Faith turned away from Allison and started to walk to her next class.
" We were just a fling. Get over it." Faith knew that voice. She craned he'd neck to see Jackson brushing a girl off.
" When did you decide this?" A girl asked him.
" Since the night it happened. Which let me remind you, was last year, Conner."
" It's Carly." The girl stomped away, crying.
" And I'd hate to see what happened when you told her that last year." Faith said, bringing Jackson's attention to her. Her arms were crossed and a small smile was on her lips.
" It wasn't to pretty." Jackson laughed, smiling back.
Faith looked around awkwardly. What was she supposed to say? " I have to go. See you at lunch."
" Are we cool?"
Faith nodded and reached up to lock her arms around his neck. She gave him a quick hug before pulling away. " I just..."
" We're not cool, are we?"
" I said we were fine." Faith retreated and gave him a weak smile.
" I know when you're lying to me." Jackson grabbed her arm.
Faith looked passed him when the warning bell rang. " We'll talk later."
" Or right now."
Faith pleaded with him to let her go with her eyes before he finally did let go. Faith rushed down the hall.
Jackson watched her go, his mind racing. ' I thought we patched everything up. This wouldn't have happened if I wasn't such a jerk! There goes the perfect girl.I had her.. And she got away.'

Faith bumped into Lydia on her way to lunch.
" The spazz isn't so bad." Lydia stated, looping our arms together.
" I know that. I was just waiting for you to realize it so that you two could-"
" -Say go out and I'll slash your throat." Lydia saying that made Faith's eyes widen. Did she know about the supernatural? How could she?
" With what? Claws?"
" No. I'm no werewolf. With a knife."
" You scare me, Lydia Martin."
Lydia chirped, " And don't you ever forget it. So what's been up with you and Jackson? Don't tell me he dumped the both of us in the same month? The douche just doesn't have good taste in women."
" I don't know what's going on with us. We got in a fight and he apologized the other night. But things are still awkward. Put that on top of it being a Monday." Faith jokingly added the last part.
Lydia shot her a smile. " Everything will work itself out." They marched into the lunch room and cut in line. Well Lydia did and she dragged Faith behind her.
Faith grabbed her tray and settled for a salad. With an apple and a soda.
" Soda? Goodbye." Lydia picked it off the tray and set it on a nearby table. She then placed a water on the tray to replace it. " Water? Hello."
Faith laughed and they took a seat at a table. Ally soon joined them and then Danny. Next was Stiles and Scott. Then Greenberg. Well he tried to sit, but Lydia stopped him and told him to turn around. Greenberg sighed and walked away, causing Faith to start feeling bad for him.
Then Jackson finally sat down and met Faith's eye. Faith nodded at him before quickly turning away and looking towards Lydia for help.
Catching on, Lydia started to talk about stuff. " Alli, you seem a little distant."
" I'm fine." Allison answered to quickly.
Faith watched her carefully as she picked t her full plate of food. " We'll talk later, Allison."
Allison silently nodded.
" As I was saying: The formal. Danny who's your date?"
" I was thinking of going solo." Danny answered.
" It's settled then. I'll find you someone. So it's me and spazz, Jackson and Allison, Scott's not going. Faith you wanna go with Danny?"
" It would be my honor." I shot Danny a wink and a toothy grin.
Danny acted like he was fainting, causing everyone to laugh. Except Jackson.
" Faith, we gotta talk."
Faith looked at everyone before following Jackson out of the cafeteria.
