CHAPTER 3: WHAT'S GOING ON WITH ME

Anyway like I was saying when I got to the Hale house I started looking around. When I got to the middle of the preserve I heard a loud howl, but that can't be right. There haven't been wolves in Beacon Hills in like 60 years. As I was looking for the source of the noise thinking it was Scott trying to scare me, I didn't realise how far I had wandered into the preserve. Until I tripped and lost my medication, "My dad is going to kill me" I said out loud to myself. I tried to find it with my flashlight but it was too dark. As I stood to leave I heard that howling again this time I could feel something was watching me as I turned slowly thinking no sudden moves. I heard it and saw it come at me. I took off hoping to outrun it, whatever it was, but as I got close to where I parked my jeep it hit me knocking me to the ground. Then as I lay there thinking I'm going to die I felt its teeth sink into me on my side. It only held on for like a minute, but it was the longest and most agonising pain filled minute of my life, then it just disappeared. When it was finally over I layed there for a few minutes to catch my breath, when I got up I whimpered in pain as I stumbled my way to my jeep, got in it and drove home.

When I finally got home last night I cleaned up the bite mark and went to bed. I was asleep before my head even hit the pillow. I got up the next morning, showered, changed the bandages, then got ready for school. When I got down stairs my dad was just getting home from being out in the woods all night. He looked up at me from where he was sitting at the table and said "good morning sweetheart . Did you sleep ok last night?" I looked at him with concern on my face with how tired he looked and I said "good morning daddy, I slept ok. How was your night?". He looked at me and grinned wearily at me and nodded his head at me then said "It was stressful to say the least, but other then having to truck through the forest for the poor unfortunate girl that was found by a couple of joggers last night. It was as good as it could have been". I looked at him stunned that he would just come out and say it like that so i said "well I hope you find her and whoever or whatever killed her. Well I have to go or I'm going to be late for school bye daddy love you" he said "bye sweetie have a good day".

I left for school, got into my baby blue jeep and took off towards the school. As I pulled into the school parking lot I could smell something that I had never noticed before. I forgot about it for a minute as I parked and got out to wait for Scott to show up. As I waited that smell came back then I noticed Scott riding up on his bike. I stood there waiting for him when he finally looked up at me as he was chaining up his bike. I asked him " what is that smell", he looked at me and asked "what are you talking about?" I just looked at him " you can't smell that" he looked at me like I was crazy then said " what smell? I don't smell anything other than the usual highschool smells". I looked at him to say something, but then I just shook my head and let it go for now because we had class.

As the day wore on I continued to smell that strange scent, but I still couldn't figure out what it was till I got to the cafeteria for lunch. When I got there I passed by the new girl Allison and realised it was coming from her. So I thought I would introduce myself and ask what kind of scent she was wearing. I sat down and "Hi my name is Stiles it's nice to meet you" as she looked up at me from her lunch she took my hand and shook it and said "Hi my name is Allison it's nice to meet you to" so I sat and talked about random stuff then as subtly as I could I asked "what kind of perfume are you wearing I really like the scent". She looked at me and said "oh It's one my aunt Kate makes herself I can ask her the next time she's here what in it if you want" I looked at her and said "sure that would be great thanks". She smiled and left for her next class. I did the same thing, still wondering what was going on with me. I could hear, see, and smell things I shouldn't be able to. Oh well I will figure it out when I get home tonight.
