Tossing and turning, Skylar just couldn't fall asleep. The girl had been shivering all night. It was the type of coldness that coursed throughout her bones, as if her heart was were a door left wide open to the icy weather. She felt as if she had a cold. Something the girl very much hated.

Usually she'd sleep with one arm under her pillow, but seem as though her left arm got bitten she couldn't do that - which she was pretty stressed about. So waking up this morning, Skylar wasn't exactly the happiest.

Groaning loudly, the brunette stormed out of bed after snoozing her alarm for the fourth time. She did her morning routine then quickly shoved on a pair of black ripped jeans, a yellow jumper with her black denim jacket finishing the look off with her signature black vans. She hadn't even noticed that the bite on her arm had disappeared. Not wanting to deal with anything right now she put her earphones in and played some music.

"Sky, are you ready? I'm leaving now." Stiles shouted, taking one of his sisters earphones out causing Skylar to slap his hand away.

"You're so annoying, why would you do that?!" Groaned Skylar, "No I am not ready, just go without me."

Stiles glanced at his sister he immediately knew that she hadn't had much sleep. The boy felt bad for leaving her in the woods last night after hearing what happened from Scott on the phone.

"Sky, i'm sorry for leaving you last night, this is all my fault." Stiles explained, gesturing to her arm where she had been bitten.

"It's fine Stiles, just go school I want to ride my bicycle anyway today."

After hearing this, Stiles decided to leave, knowing that his sister was in one of her moods. Ever since their mother died and the twins witnessed it, both haven't exactly been the same. Difference is Stiles knew how to deal with the pain, Skylar didn't. They tried to help each other and their father mourn their mothers death. The numbness of her loss never passed, and the pain would hit her out of nowhere, doubling her over, racking her body with sobs.

What she once treasured is now a memory, a shadow lingering in the depths of her mind. She thought it was a strange thing to lose someone you once had, like a limb torn from your body without the chance to save it. The door that was once open and welcoming, was locked and disinviting. The only people Skylar let in were her father, her twin and their best friend. Anyone else that tried to befriend her, she couldn't care less. The brunette may have been young when it happened, but it doesn't make it any easier each year.

Exiting her house, Skylar jumped on her bicycle throwing her bag over her back. Unlike her best friend Scott, she chooses not to wear a helmet. The brunette hated helmets, especially when her father would force her to wear one. Sometimes her father wished his daughter wasn't so fearless, unlike her brother. He hated the fact that his little girl wanted a motorbike. Instead of a jeep or car like her brother.

As Skylar hops off her bicycle at the school, she notices Jackson hassling Scott. Not wanting to deal with Jackass' shit, she strides over to them. "Is there a problem?"

"No I was just leaving." Jackson mumbled after hearing his friends shout him over.

"Thought so." Skylar mocked while the boy walked away.

Scott simply smiled at his best friend, he can always count on her to have his back. He never really understood why Jackson always hassled him, but he's forever thankful that he has Skylar to stop Jackson. No one in the school would dare hassle the female, knowing what happened to a girl that tried to in her class. It didn't exactly end well, the girl left school with a bruised face while Skylar left with a week's suspension. Her father definitely wasn't pleased with his daughter.

From the corner of her eye the brunette could see her twin hurrying over with a huge smile on his face. "What's got you so smiley, weirdo?"

"So let's see this thing." Gesturing to the bite mark on Scott's side.

The pale boy scrunched his face up in disgust as soon as he saw the little bit of blood that seeped through Scott's bandage. Skylar was intrigued by that because she always knew her brother was interested in crime, just like their father. You'd think he'd be able to handle a little blood.

Skylar laughed , "How did I manage to get here before you, while riding my bicycle?" Stiles rolled his eyes at his sister.

The two boys continued to talk about how it was a wolf that bit the two which got Stiles ranting about how California doesn't have wolves. Skylar had zoned out of the conversation by this point not finding it interesting at all.

All she heard was Stiles say "Hey, Lydia, you look... like you're gonna ignore me."

Except Lydia heard the pale boy say her name, she was just too interested in the brunette girl standing next to him - the brunette that wasn't even paying attention. Everyone knew Lydia had the hots for Skylar, a few of the girls around Lydia had told the brunette. As most people knew Skylar wasn't one for taking an interest in people. She just didn't care.

"Stiles don't you think you're a little too gay for her? And she's not that special." Questions Skylar while glancing at the strawberry blonde that's walking into school.

Stiles unimpressed, glanced at his twin before saying, "Doesn't mean I can't compliment the girl."

"Compliment her all you want, but she didn't exactly stop for you." Teased Skylar, walking away from the boys pulling her tongue out as Stiles rolled his eyes at her.

Walking into the classroom, Skylar scanned the room to see who was already present. Once she sat down in her seat she could feel someone's eyes on her. Looking around the room, she noticed that it was in fact Lydia Martin eyeing her. Their eyes met, causing Skylar to smirk at the girl, something she hardly ever does at anyone other than her two best friends. She noticed the slight tint in Lydia's cheeks when she had smirked at her.

Skylar didn't really like the strawberry blonde all that much. She hated the way the girl would act around the school; strutting around like she owns the place. She especially didn't understand why she'd date someone like Jackson, who bullies people. More so because the person Jackson bullied the most was her best friend, Skylar didn't like when people tried to mess with her family.

As Skylar looked up from her desk she noticed her brother and best friend walk in the room, both smiling at her. Before she could turn to say something to the boys the teacher walked into the room proceeding to write on the board.

"As you all know, there indeed was a body found in the woods last night." Skylar immediately turns to see her brother looking at her with his infamous smirk and Scott grinning like a lost puppy.

"And I am sure your eager little minds are coming up with various macabre scenarios as to what happened. But I am here to tell you that the police have a suspect in custody." The teacher rambled on, whilst writing on the board.

"Which means you can give your undivided attention to the syllabus which is on your desk." The teacher explained, causing some students to groan.

As Skylar was about to put her head down to focus on her work, a loud ringing sound distracted her. She wondered why the sound was piercing through her ears. Glancing at Scott, she noticed that he was staring rather intenly outside. Only to realise he was watching a girl, said girl being the one on the phone. The brunette wondered why she could hear the girls phone call through the classroom.

Skylar realised she was staring and tried to get started on work. That was until the principal decided to walk in and announce the new student named Allison Argent. She watched as the girl walked over to sit in the seat behind Scott. She was about to look away when she saw her best friend offering the girl a pen, and him smiling at her as she thanked him.

Skylar laughed, leaning back in her chair to see if Stiles just witnessed the same thing she did. But what was she thinking of course Stiles witnessed it, especially when he looked at her giving her a thumbs up.

When class finished the trio exited the classroom together walking to their lockers only to be stopped by a girl.

"Can somebody tell me how new girl is here all of five minutes, and she's already hanging out with Lydia's clique?"

Stiles was quick to reply with, "Because she's hot, beautiful people herd together."

"Beautiful? So enlighten me on why Jackson is part of her clique and don't be so jealous." Skylar retorted. Causing the boys to laugh sharing glances at each other.

"And sassy Skylar makes a return." Scott teases while nudging his best friend.

The other girl retorted with, "Lydia and her clique would jump at the chance to have you side by side with them," looking Skylar up and down shrugging "Personally I think you're hotter than all of them."

The twins watched as the girl winked and walked away. They both looked at Scott, who seemed to be staring at the new girl from afar. Nudging her brother, making him watch her as she shouts down Scotts ear, "Scotty, whatcha doing?"

The brunette boy jumped at this and quickly averted his eyes from the new girl. "What, i'm not, nothing."

The twins smirked at this wondering whether they should press further and tease him a little more. What she didn't know was that Scott was listening in on the conversation between the new girl, Lydia and Jackson. They both heard about the party.

As Skylar walks onto the field she can hear her brother complain to Scott about not having anyone to talk to on the bench, if Scott were to play. The brunette laughed at this, mainly because she ended up inheriting the athletic gene while Stiles was very, unathletic.

The whole school knows that Skylar's the best Lacrosse player on the team, and she is definitely Coach Finstocks favourite. He offered her the Captain's position as soon as he saw how amazing she was on the field. Worse thing was she had to be the Co-Captain with none other than Jackson Whittemore. The only thing she actually liked about the boy was that he was actually pretty good at Lacrosse. Making her team suck less. She was hoping that there will be a few good players trying out, she doesn't want her team to be a laughing stock this season.

As Skylar sauntered over to her brother while Scott walked away from the bench, she heard the coach telling him that he was in goal.

"I've never played?" States a bewildered Scott.

"I know, scoring some shots will give the boys a confidence boost." Finstock replies patting Scott on the shoulder. "It's a first day back thing. Get them energised, fired up!"

Skylar giggled at the encounter, which made a confused Stiles look at his sister wondering what the hell she was laughing at. "What?" The twin girl asks, as she notices her brother staring.

"You just giggled, what the hell did you just giggle at? Yourself?" Skylar could hear the sarcasm in his voice.

"I was laughing at the coach telling Scott he's in goal." Skylar stated while patting her brother on the back before running over to Scott, to do the same. She swiped her lacrosse stick left and right, and told Scott to keep his eye on the ball.

Making her way over to the line, Skylar smirked knowing she was going to kick Scotts ass and score every goal. Making the try outs quake.

There it was again, the same voice she heard when she was sitting in class. Skylar turned her head to see the new girl sat with Lydia Martin questioning who Scott was. The strawberry blonde had said that she wasn't sure who he was. Skylar rolled her eyes at that response because of course she didn't know, she was too shallow to know who anyone was in the school - other than her self centred boyfriend.

"The girl that walked over to him, who is she? Is she his girlfriend?" Skylar heard the new girl ask, causing her to whip her back around nearly giving herself whiplash.

Lydia knew immediately who she was talking about. Skylar Stilinski, the only female on the team, the only female Lydias ever taken a liking too.

"Oh honey no, Skylar's a lesbian." Lydia stated looking back over at the brunette only to see her staring right back. The Martin girl smiled at her, but frowned once she noticed that Skylar had looked away straight after.

Skylar grimaced as she watched her best friend get hit in the face by the ball and fall to the ground. She watched as the whole team laughed, while one shouted, "Hey, way to catch with your face, McCall!"

"Hey ass hat, keep your mouth shut before I shut if for you," Skylar walking over to the boy before shoving him. "Got it?" Sniggered the brunette noticing the fearful look in the boys eyes.

Skylar proceeded to watch the game, the next person in line shot the ball towards Scott. The brunette covered her eyes, not wanting to witness her best friend get hit in the face again.

The sound of her brother's voice caused her to look back up "Yeah!" She followed Stiles' eye only to see Scott standing in the goal with the ball in his stick.

Putting her thumb up at Scott, she smiled proudly. Not only did Scott catch that shot, he caught every shot that flew his way. The brunette was amazed. Something clicked inside Skylar's head as she watched her best friend catch Jacksons shot. No way in hell would Scott have ever been able to do that. Wanting to be certain Skylar swiped her stick left and right picking up the ball before aiming for the top right of the net. She moved her hand down a little lower than she would when passing the ball, she shot the ball and watched as it glided through the air. Scott watched the ball come flying towards him as he attempted to catch it. Instead the ball broke through the netting of the goal.

Grinning ear to ear, Skylar looked at Scott winking whilst everyone was cheering her on.

"Yeah!! That's my star player, that's how it's done people." Shouted Coach Finstock proudly.

The brunette smiled at coach and ran towards the locker rooms, sending her brother a 'we need to talk' look.
