It was leading to that, yes. I (probably because I know whats to come) saw it as he was the first to show her kindness in a long long time. Once she gets talking though, we'll find out more about that! I don't want to spoil any more! If that counts as a spoiler lol.

Chloe's POV

There wasn't much to do until Matt and Jeremy got back. We just sat around talking and watching TV. I don't know what I expected for when they returned but it certainly wasn't what did happen.

The door opened in and Matt stepped in. He raised a finger to his lips telling us all to quiet down. Were we being too loud or did he bring the werewolf back?

Jeremy stepped in through the doorway supporting a girl who was covering most of her body with a dirty sheet. She was filthy, covered in dirt and old dried blood. Part of the sheet had been ripped off to hold piece of wood against her right leg as a makeshift cast.

Jeremy stepped past Matt and lead her into the bathroom. There was a woosh of water as the shower was turned on.

"Chloe, Liz, would you mind helping her get cleaned up since you're girls? I'm going to go get my hands on a real cast." Matt said.

"Of course," I stood up. Out of the corner of my eye I saw one of Derek's signature looks. He understood why Matt would ask girls to help her get cleaned up but that didn't mean he liked me around the stranger away from him.

"Yeah," Liz stood.

"Wait," Tori spoke up before Matt stepped back out. "Why can't Simon or I just heal her?"

"She's terrified and hasn't spoke a word yet," Matt said. "I don't think she really trusts us yet so I don't want to push the boundaries."

Tori huffed annoyed and Matt left without another word.

Liz and I walked to the bathroom door as Jeremy stepped out. He smiled at me as he passed by.

We stepped in and shut the door. She was sitting on the toilet holding onto the sheet tightly. Liz pulled back the shower curtain and felt the water.

"Do you like it hot?" Liz asked her. "It's getting pretty warm."

The girl didn't respond, she just watched us. I walked up to her and smiled.

"Remember me? My name is Chloe." I asked.

She nodded.

"We're gonna help you get cleaned up, ok?" I said. "First you need to let go of the sheet."

The girl did and Liz handed her a towel to cover herself with intead. I stepped closer.

"I'm gonna help you get in the water," I said.

I slid my arm under her shoulders and tried my best to help her get into the shower without her broken leg getting bumped. It wasn't the easiest task with the girl being a bit taller than me. She sat down on the shower floor, I sat behind her. Not caring that I was getting my clothes wet. Liz sat at the edge of the shower.

"Can we wash your hair first?" Liz asked her.

The girl, hugging her good leg to her chest, nodded. I wondered in the back of my head if she was just agreeing because she felt like she didn't have any other options.

I shampooed and conditioned her hair as gently as I could.

Liz pulled out a bar of soap, "Ok, Chloe's going to help you stand. You'll use this to get all the dirty stuff off you."

Once we got her to her feet, I supported her under her armpits and Liz held the towel up to shield our faces and give her privacy.

When she was done and clean she tried to pull the towel from Liz's hands.

"Hold on," Liz said and hung the soaked towel up. She turned the water off and grabbed a dry towel for the girl. "Here, this ones dry."

The girl wrapped herself in the new towel and we helped her sit back down on the toilet. Liz left to grab new clothes. She came back in with dry clothes for me and a t-shirt and undergarments from Tori and sweatpants from Simon since they were nearly the same height.

I stepped into the shower and pulled the curtain and changed while Liz helped her get dressed.

"Do you want to stay in here?" I asked her when I stepped back out. "You don't have to be around everyone if you don't want to."

The girl looked at me confused, confirming my earlier suspicion, she wasn't used to being allowed to choose.

"Here," I grabbed an unused toothbrush and got it ready for her. "Brush your teeth then we can go out to the room."

She brushed her teeth as best as she could, it must have been a long time. Then we lead her out to the room and sat her on the bed. Everyone watched us quietly. Jeremy came over and sat beside her and handed her some pain relievers.

"Remember Matt said you need to keep taking these," he said. "They make the pain go away."

She swallowed the pills and looked around the room nervously.

"Hey," Simon walked up to her with the TV remote. "The TV is all yours."

She started pressing buttons confused. Simon smiled and started teaching her how to use it until Matt came back with the new cast and crutches.
