So this one is an extra long one enjoy. Could you please review so I improve the story?
'Lucy, get up!' Her dad said shaking Lucy.
'No-d I'm cold!' Lucy moaned sniffling pulling the covers over her head to protect herself from the cold and refusing to open her eyes.
'Jesus Lucy you're boiling.' Her dad commented as he tried to loosen her grip on the covers. He moved his hand to her forehead. 'You got a fever. I think you got a cold.'
'No-d I'm fine-d.' Lucy protested with her eyes closed.
'Okay I'll believe that if you can get up.' Her dad commented amused. Lucy pulled the quilt of her face and opened her eyes to glare at her dad curiously.
'Achoo!' Lucy sneezed.
'Aww you would almost be intimidating if you didn't look so much like a bunny.' Her dad mocked.
'Leave-d me alone-d!' Lucy moaned as she pulled the covers over her head.
'You can stay at home.' Her dad said.
'No I have-th, I have-th –achoo- to get up and find out how mmm how the-d thing went.' Lucy said.
'Okay I just about understood that and I'm rephrasing what I said - you have to stay at home!' Her dad insisted.
'But Jac's.' Lucy whined.
'Don't worry I'm calling him so he can check up on you while I'm at work.'
'No-d he-d gets over protective.' Lucy whined under the covers.
'And he wouldn't if you were in school?'
'Don't- achoo- argue with my logic!'
'Okay I have 20 minutes before I got to go to work.' Her dad getting off the side of Lucy bed, Lucy poked her head out of the covers to watch him rummage around her wardrobe pulling out his 'sorry I have plans with netflixs' jumper. 'I was wondering where this went.' Grabbed her wolf slippers and tossed them at her. 'So you going to get up and move to the couch and I'm going to cook you breakfast.'
'I am not hungry.' Lucy said sniffling.
'Neversaid you were. Now get up.' Her dad said before leaving.
'Ugh.' Lucy huffed before reaching for the jumper. After shoving it on she grabbed her hair band and tied up her hair.
She slowly pulled the covers around her and climbed off the bed still wrapped in the quilt. She shuffled out of the room, down the stairs, through the kitchen, and dropped face forward on the couch.
'Where are your slippers?' Her dad asked the kitchen.
'Remus and Romulus are in bed, where you-d left them.' Lucy said moving her head to the side.
'You named your slippers! Why am I not surprised?'
'Too cold to care-d.' Lucy complained from the couch.
'Okay here is your food. I'm going to get you slippers.' Her dad placing a plate of B.T.L. sandwiches on the coffee table in front of Lucy.
'Thank-d's Dad.' Lucy said, eating the sandwich.
'Okay here is your phone - keep that with you, If you need anything call me or Jackson.' He said leaving her phone on the table. 'I called Jackson he'll be over as soon as he can and I will leave work at about 6 so Jackson should be over before then. I've got to go back to work.'
Lucy finished the sandwich she mumbled a quick 'Bye' before going to sleep.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Lucy slowly woke up hearing noise in the kitchen. 'Jackson?' Lucy called out.
'You're awake.' Raven called back.
'How did you get into my house?' Lucy asked.
'Back door. How are you feeling?' Raven asked setting down what looked like tea in her rubix cube mug. But the back door is always locked!
'Scared.' Lucy commented causing Raven to lightly chuckle as she lifted Lucy feet up and sat at the end of the couch before replacing the feet back on her lap. How did you get into my house?
'Don't worry, Jackson told me where to find the key. Drink your tea.' Raven instructed. Jackson would never willing tell Raven where my keys are! Wait cross that out - Jackson would never willing tell Raven anything!
'No part of that calmed me.' Lucy said watching Raven. Lucy sat up but didn't remove her feet.
'Lydia got him to tell me when I asked if I should go check up on you.' Lydia helped you! Lydia doesn't help anyone bar herself! 'Alison made Lydia make Jackson tell me. Now drink!'
Lucy accepted the cup being passed to her. 'So what are you doing here?'
'Can't I check to see how my sick friend is doing?' Raven said causing Lucy to raise her eyebrows. Okay so you're not going to tell me then?
'So what's the beef between Dean and Mr. Argent?' Raven looked up slightly alarmed. 'Did you think I didn't recognise him?'
'One- his name is Derek and two - why didn't you say anything?' Raven asked. Lucy move to set the cup on the table.
'There was something off about the situation. I can't pin-point it and I figured best not to get involved and to be honest I was freezing cold and just wanted home.' Lucy said simply.
'So you thought best to lie to your friend's father.' Raven stated. Was Derek there when I lied for him? He must have been. I mean how else would Raven know?
'I think what is worst was that I lied for a guy I meet once and gives off serious creeper vibes to a guy my father is good friends with and who invited us to dinner tomorrow.' Lucy pointed out her own stupidity.
'Why did you do it?'
'It looked like Mr. Argent surrounded him to be honest and well Derek looked kinda scared. Mr. Argent is the kind of guy I wouldn't be surprised if he turned out to like a mob boss or something.' Lucy joked causing Raven to snort.
'Wait so you think your dad would be friends with a mob boss?' Raven asked.
'My Dad has bad taste in friends - seriously wouldn't be surprised.' Lucy said.
'Your best friend is Jackson so it must be inherited!' Raven said sarcastically causing Lucy to hit her.
'Jackson's not that bad!' Lucy defended.
'He is a jerk!' Raven commented.
'Yes and I'm a bitch. So what's new?' Lucy stated, 'Okay we are getting off topic - was I right to lie for Derek?' I need to know.
Raven was quite for a while before nodding. 'Yes okay you were right. Derek and the Argents have some bad history.' Bad history?
'If it was a good thing that I didn't say I knew him why did you tell his daughter that you are connected to him?' Lucy asked curious. What a dumbass move?
'I didn't know she was his daughter and was hoping by bringing up Derek's name that it might spark some recognition.' Raven admitted. I- What?!
'Recognition?' Lucy asked.
'Laura was Derek's sister. She was the girl found in the forest.' Raven said carefully.
'Oh God. Sorry were you close?' Lucy said moving forward to put her hand on her arm.
'Its fine. I just –' Raven was cut off by the front door shutting. They both turn around to see Jackson walking over to the couch. Raven tensed up at the sight of Jackson.
'Hey there patient you should be asleep!' Jackson said straight away, Lucy gave a small smile as a greeting.
'I'm fine I slept for like –what time is it?' Lucy asked as Jackson moved to sit the other side of the couch – behind Lucy's back. Lucy leaned back on Jackson.
'4 o'clock.' Jackson answered. Jackson wrapped his arms around Lucy. Well that isn't territorial.
'What time did you get here?' Lucy asked Raven.
'About 3 but you were asleep for about 10 minutes of that.' Raven said looking mostly at Lucy. This is awkward.
'Creepy!' Jackson said almost meanly. Why do I feel like a pawn being used to annoy the other one? 'How are you feeling, Lucy?'
'I'm wonderful Jackson, how are you?' Lucy asked raising her eyebrows at Jackson - causing him to glare at her. 'I'm fine seriously.'
'You'd be even better if you went to sleep.' Jackson said. Overprotective!
'You sound like my Dad!' Lucy mocked.
'No part of that sentence was a pun I don't sound like your Dad!' Jackson mocked. Got a point!
'Do you guys want to watch a movie?' Lucy asked them.
'Sure.' 'Yeah' they both answered at the same time.
'We should watch "Age of Ultron"!' Lucy said.
'No we are watching "Hoosiers"! ' Jackson demanded.
'I say we watch "Age of Ultron" too!' Raven said smirking at Jackson.
'Two against one -"Age of Ultron" wins!' Lucy cheered before hitting Jackson on the arm 'Go put the movie in!'
'Why do I have to do it?!' Jackson argued.
'Because I'm sick!' Lucy argued back 'Now go!'
'You can't play that card!'
'Yes I can, now go put it in!'
'That's what she said!' Raven muttered causing Lucy to laugh and Jackson to glare. Jackson huffed one more time before getting up and putting the movie in.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
'What happened? Who died?!' Lucy yelled as she woke up. Was I a sleep?
'You fell asleep that's what happened?' Jackson joked from the other side of the couch. What is he doing that side?
'You moved! How did I not wake for that?!' Lucy exclaimed, Jackson gave an amused smirk and nodded. How long was I asleep?
'I did move, your Dad took a picture of you sleeping by the way.' Jackson said.
'Of course he did, where is Raven?'
'She went home shortly after you fell asleep.' Jackson said stiffly. Bull!
'Meaning you glared at her till she left.' Lucy translated with a raised eyebrow. This is why I can't have nice things?
'I saw her talking to McCall today. They didn't look happy. Then she came over and started asking about you and where you were, stuff like that.' Jackson said. What's that about?
'Odd - she never mentioned it. Did you hear what they were talking about?' Lucy asked Jackson who just shook his head. Why didn't she mention it?
'Hey Lucy, how are you doing?' Her dad called walking into the sitting room.
'I'm good Dad but really hungry. Do we have anything to eat?' Lucy asked. I haven't eaten since I got up!
'Hi good I'm Dad also I'm ordering a pizza. Are you staying for dinner Jackson.' Her dad didn't really ask. They knew the answer to it anyway. Why does he bother to ask?
'Yeah I am.' Jackson confirmed. Wasn't needed.
'Good because I have already ordered for you.' Her dad said causing Lucy to laugh.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
'No you are not wearing a top where it looks like skeleton hands are grabbing your chest to a dinner party.' Her dad yelled as soon as Lucy walked down the stairs. Lucy looked at her jumper and black leather pants.
'Oh c'mon this top is cute!' Lucy huffed as her dad shook his head and then walked back up the stairs. 'I don't know why you're freaking out so much! We are having a dinner with your old friend and his family' Your friend that might be a mob boss! 'That isn't till after school! I don't know why I have to dress up now and not after school.'
'Because I said so. Now hurry up!' Her dad yelled back. Lucy looked through her wardrobe. She put on a black pintucked Blouse. You know what would look good with this outfit- my red leather jacket.
Lucy put on her black combat studded boots. I don't care if Dad doesn't like this I'm wearing this! Lucy put on a black studded bracelet and bow earrings. Lucy fixed her make-up and hair.
She marched downstairs ready to ignore her Dad when she heard 'I like it! Wear that.'
'And you said I would never wear this jacket!' Lucy gloated. I told you! I told yoooooooooou!
'Yes I was wrong and you were right. Now hurry up.' Her dad passively.
Lucy phone started blaring out "That's so Raven" 'I've got to get that.' Lucy answered the phone. 'Hey Raven.'
'Oh C'mon!' her dad yelled behind her.
'Hey Lucy you haven't seen Derek have you? He didn't come back.' Raven asked sounding a bit desperate.
'No sorry - do you want me to keep a look out?' Lucy asked carefully.
'Yes please! And could you not mention this to Alison?' Raven asked.
'Sure. I've got to go to school. Will I see you there?' Lucy asked.
'I might be in late.' Raven said.
'If I see him I'll let you know.' Lucy said before hanging up. 'Okay let's go!'
'Is someone missing?' Her dad asked beside her.
'Eavesdrop much! I think it's just a case of where did he sleep rather than where the hell is he?' Lucy said. He responded by nodding. 'I'm going to go. Bye!' Lucy left the house.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
'Hey Alison, I need to- Wait did I get your name right?' Lucy asked as she went over to Alison who was at her locker.
'Ha yes you did!' Alison said with a smile taking a book out of her locker.
'Okay, good, you know I'm going to your house for dinner today right?' Alison nodded looking confused. 'I was just wondering if I should know anything or stay clear of mentioning anything.'
'My Dad can be strict so avoid talking about, you know, bad stuff I guess,' Lucy nodded 'but it's going to fun. My Aunt Kate will be there and she is a lot of fun. You'll love her!'
'Okay, well then anything else?' Lucy asked.
'Scott's coming over to study before you get there.' Alison said shyly grinning. Lucy gave a laugh. Yeah Study! Ha!
'Well you go girl! I can't pull that off. You know what I mean.' Lucy said with a knowing smirk. The smirk quickly dropped at the sight of Alison's bemused face. Or you don't.
'What do you mean?' Alison asked. Oh fuck what do I say?
'Uhh you should talk to Lydia about this, not me. I'm like Jon Snow I know nothing. Actually one thing I do know is that I have to get to class. Bye and talk to Lydia.' Lucy said quickly before walking as fast as she could without running away from Alison and to her class.
Alison was calling after Lucy but she ignored it and entered her classroom. She looked to see only a few people were there. Lucy quickly took her seat and pulled out her phone as people started entering the classroom. Lucy started texting Lydia.
Lydia you need to have the talk with Alison! She is "studying" with McCall! – LL
Oh my God she is! She growing up so fast :'( - LM
She is your problem not mine I'm not helping! – LL
Lucy quickly sent a text to Danny as Mr. Jefferson entered the room.
Alison is studying with McCall! – LL
I'm suppose to care because... – DM
You love gossip and I wanted to tell someone that wasn't going to use it against her and who didn't have a life of their own- that ruled out all my others friends – LL
Feeling the love – DM
WAIT YOU REMEMBER HER NAME! IT'S A MIRCLE – DM
I know my memory is getting better! – LL
What class do you have now? – DM
Its either English or History – LL
Lucy looked up from her phone to see who was in her class. No Alison- its history! Oh shit how long has he been talking.
'I'm disappointed by some of your results! I expected better! You knew that this test goes towards your grade - right?! And yet some of you were stupid enou-' Lucy tuned out at this point and took out her phone. What test!?
Guess who is so really pretty, awesome and getting results for a test she doesn't remember taking- so is pretty sure she fail. Oh I forgot to mention the test effects her grade so it will bring her average down to C and is the last test before the parents teacher meetings –LL
Hint- it's me –LL
and yet your still not paying attention in class – DM
He is complaining about youth I have ten minutes – LL
'I DON'T KNOW!' Lucy looked up to see McCall turned in his seat and looking sorry for yelling. Stilinski shrugged. Lucy turned to see what the teacher would say about this, only to see him too busy handing out the tests. Or I don't! Lucy quickly hid her phone in her pocket.
As Mr. Jefferson handed Lucy her test, she gave him her fakest sweetest smile and said 'Thank you your Honour.' Yes I got a B. My average is . No parents teacher meeting!
Lucy turned to see if the Mr. Jefferson was looking the other way. Before taking out her phone and snapping a picture of her results and sent it to Danny.
Yes "past me" knew what she was at –LL
She looked up to see Stilinski judging her, so Lucy sneered back. What is he looking at!?
Andat present you is not paying attention in class! – DM
Neither are you! Don't judge me –LL
But you're right I better pay attention see you at lunch –LL
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Lucy walked through the hallway on her way to see Jackson. Raven suddenly appeared beside her. 'Hey I thought you were looking for Derek?'
'Yeah I followed his scent to here.' Raven said not paying attention as they continued walking.
'"Followed his scent"!?' Lucy asked confused.
'It's an expression.' Raven told her.
'No its not. Who'd say that?!' Lucy said. She stopped when she spotted Derek making his way over to Jackson. Lucy turned to look at Raven who was watching them as well. Lucy grabbed Raven's arm before she could go over and took a step closer to listen in.
'-and I only do that once.' Derek said to Jackson sounding mildly threatening. Probably be more threatening if he wasn't sweating so much.
'Hey are you okay?' Lucy asked joining the conversation. Derek ignored her and Jackson nodded at her.
'Hmm. Okay, tough guy. You know, how about I help you find him if you tell me what you're selling him? What is it? Is it, uh, Dianabol? Hmm? HGH?' Jackson asked.
'Jackson!' Lucy exclaimed. Lucy turn to see Raven still standing there watching them.
'Steroids.' Derek said with raised eyebrows and went to move away.
'No girl scout cookies- what the hell do you think I'm talking about? Oh, and, uh, by the way, whatever it is you're out selling, I'd probably stop sampling the merchandise. You look wrecked.' Great people skills there Jackson.
'He is not on drugs. You're not on drugs are you?' Lucy asked.
'I'll find him myself.' Derek went to leave.
'No, we're not done-' Jackson reached to grab his shoulder when Derek shoved him face forward into the locker.
'Get off of him!' Lucy yelled trying to shove Derek away from Jackson. Raven finally moved and yanked Derek off of Jackson with one hand. How was she able to do that? You'd need to be extremely strong to do that.
Derek and Raven walked away as Lucy checked on Jackson. Jackson turned to watch him walk away holding his neck.
'Is that blood?' Lucy asked Jackson, who didn't responded. 'C'mon lets get you cleaned up.' Lucy said dragging Jackson to the girl's toilet.
'I'm not going in there!' Jackson yelled before going in.
Lucy signed and opened the door to the toilet and yelled loudly and mockingly. 'Everyone naked please cover yourself!' before turning to Jackson. 'We are all good.'
Lucy dragged an angry Jackson into the bathroom and then went and got some toilet paper. She dragged a reluctant Jackson to the sink and wet the toilet paper.
As she went to bring the wet toilet paper to the back of Jackson's neck, Jackson batted her hand away. 'Jackson the sooner you let me clean this the sooner you get the leave the empty ladies room, you big wuss!'Jackson let out a huff before nodded. 'and could lean forward it'd be easier.'
Jackson leaned forward Lucy started wiping the marks. 'Huh he must have some nails.'
'What do you mean?' Jackson asked.
'Just these look more like a pointy object stabbed you not nails. You know what it reminds me of the time I wore those fake claws and ended up punchering the balloon.' Lucy said.
'You know what get off of me!' Jackson said jumping away from her.
'What Jackson?' Lucy asked taking a step closer to him. To which he jumped away and walked out the door. Lucy dropped the toilet paper in the bin and followed after him but he was already gone.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Lucy was just about to get on her bike to leave the school when she realised there was a traffic jam on the way out. Lucy sawto see Stilinski's jeep stopped at the front of it. Of Course Stilinski is the cause of it!
She put her helmet on her bike and walked over to see what happened. He probably did something stupid! I mean it is Stilinski! She got shoved out of the way, before she could see what happened, by McCall. Loverboy always jumps to his true love rescue!
Lucy mocking of McCall was cut short as she noticed the collapsed guy on the road. Is that Derek? Well I guess he found who he was looking for and all he had to do was stab my friend in the neck to do it!
Lucy took a step closer intending to tell him to find Raven when she overheard a snippet of the conversation.
'What? Who - who said 48 hours?' Derek asked sounding demanding and impatient. Lucy couldn't make out what McCall said but it caused Derek to lift his head with his head giving Lucy a clear view of his eyes which changed colour to piercing blue. O.M.G
Lucy quickly turned around before McCall could see her looking and walked quickly away. What did I just see?
Lucy walked as fast as she could back to her bike while keeping her head down. His eyes couldn't have changed colour - it just couldn't have. Maybe Jackson was right. No, Jackson is never right. You just imagined it Lucy. Now you are going put it out of your head and freak out later.
The beeping from the cars are getting louder, Lucy put on her helmet on and got onto the bike. Lucy carefully drove down the side of the traffic jam, passing out all the cars and drove home. Thank god I have a bike!
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
'Dad, before we subject ourselves to an afternoon of pretentious food, awkward small talk and God forbid, eating with cutlery. We must consider the alterative which is sweat pants, pizza and watching Harry Potter. And I must say the alterative sounds very appealing.' Lucy said grabbing his arm before he could leave the car.
'We are going and that's final and you are going to be nice, polite and mmm - quite.' Her dad instructed.
'You mean awkward, unconformable and with bad table manners.' Lucy bitched.
'And no bitchy comments.' Her dad said before opening the door.
'You know what - we'll compromise, you can choose the movie,' Lucy said desperately as her dad got out of the car. 'Dad you can pick the toppings too, Dad! Dad!'
Lucy reluctantly got out of the door and walked over to her dad, who was waiting at the front door. 'I hate you. You're not my real Dad!'
'If only that was true!' Her dad said sarcastically, before knocking on the door. 'Smile!'
Lucy rolled her eyes before making the most exaggerated smile she could manage. Her dad nodded and said 'Better!' Before Lucy could respond the door opened to reveal a mid-thirties women with short red hair and big crazy eyes. Omg how is Alison so normal! Her mom/aunt has major crazy eyes and her father's a possible mob boss!
'Hello Victoria so good to see you again!' Her dad greeted her cheerfully.
'Ted come in.' She greeted them politely but not coldly as she moved out of the way so they could enter. 'And you must Lucy. I'm Alison's Mother; I've heard a lot about you! All good -don't worry.'
'And all because of my amazing parents skills!' Lucy's dad joked.
'So none of it's true then.' Lucy joked as turned to look in the house to see a stylish clean house. It doesn't look like someone actually lives here! They must have a maid or something.
'Everyone is already in the dining room!' Mrs. Argent said leading the way into the dining room. Lucy shot her dad a pleading looking to which her dad shook his head at and walked into the room after Mrs. Argent.
Lucy quickly and awkwardly followed but stopped short when she entered the room and spotted McCall looking as uncomfortable as Lucy felt. He was sitting beside Alison. Lucy quickly realised that there one seat was beside McCall and the other was beside a woman in a blue jumper that her dad was hugging. That must be Alison's Aunt. Great so it is either sit beside McCall or make a scene and get kicked out.
Lucy resisted a sign and reluctantly sat down beside McCall and gave Alison a small smile.
'Oh Ted it's been too long!' Alison's Aunt said breaking the hug 'Oh you must Lucy. I haven't seen you since you were a little girl! You look like a movie star!' Lucy smiled awkwardly 'Oh you don't remember me, do you?' Lucy shook her head. 'I'm Kate - an old friend of your Dad.'
'I gathered.' Lucy said sarcastically. Why did I open my big mouth?
'Oh funny and a pretty complete package - you must be so proud Ted!' Kate said with a laugh.
'Yes she gets that from me!' Her dad said while shaking hands with Mr. Argent. He knows everyone here.
'You wish!' Lucy joked - causing Kate to laugh. I need to just not talk.
'Chris will you help me with the plates.' Mrs. Argent asked.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
'Would you like something to drink besides water, Scott?' Mrs. Argent asked.
'Oh - No, I'm good. Thanks.' McCall said awkwardly.
'Lucy?'
'No I'm fine.' Lucy said.
'We can get you some beer?' Mr. Argent asked McCall. Now the interrogation begins! This'll be fun.
'N - no, thanks.' McCall answered.
'Shot of Tequila?' Mr. Argent asked. Lucy shot her dad an amused look.
'Maybe a glass of arsenic.' Lucy's Dad joked causing Lucy and Kate to laugh.
'Dad! Really!' Alison asked her dad. Poor Alison.
'You don't drink, Scott?' Mr. Argent inquired. Are you seriously asking the guy, who looks like he is going to pee his pants, that?
'I'm not old enough to.' Smart answer.
'That doesn't seem to stop many teenagers.' Mrs. Argent stated. I don't drink.
'No, but it should.' McCall said. Nice one.
'Good answer. Total lie, but well played, Scott. You may yet survive the night.' Kate said.
'Lucy doesn't drink either. She's quite boring!' Lucy's Dad said.
'Dad!' Lucy yelled.
'You ever smoke pot?' Mr. Argent asked.
'Oh leave the kid alone Chris.' Lucy's Dad said.
'Okay, changing the channel to something a little less conservative. So, Scott, uh - Alison tells us you're on the lacrosse team. I'm sorry. I don't know anything about that. How do you play?' Kate asked.
'Um, well, you know hockey? It's a lot like that, only, um, played on grass instead of ice.' McCall explained badly. Wow for a guy who plays the sport, he is terrible at describing it.
'Hockey on grass is called field hockey.' Mr. Argent said causing Lucy to try and hold back giggles.
'Oh. Yeah.' McCall said, looking like a kicked puppy. Aww! this would be awkward if it wasn't so funny.
'So it's like field hockey, except the sticks have nets.' Alison said, trying to salvage the situation. It's sad that you think that's possible.
'Exactly.' McCall agreed.
'And can you slap check like in hockey?' Kate asked.
'Um - Yeah. But it's only the, uh, the gloves and the sticks.' McCall said.
'Sounds violent! I like it.' Kate whispered loudly to Mr. Argent.
'Scott's amazing too. Dad came with me to the first game. Wasn't he good?' Alison gushed to Kate.
'He was fine.' Mr. Argent said. Rain on the parade much?
'He scored on the last shot - the winning shot.' Alison ignored him.
'True, but he didn't score at all until the last few minutes.' Mr. Argent. This is like watching wrack a mole.
'His last shot ripped a hole through the goalie's net. It was incredible.' Oh just stop Alison.
'Well, I think the goalie was probably playing with a defective stick, so –' Mr. Argent said and Alison sat back with a huff.
'You know, on second thought, um, I think I'll take that shot of Tequila.' McCall finally broke the tension, causing everyone to laugh.
'You were kidding, right?' Mr. Argent asked for conformation.
'Yeah.'
'Is the interrogation of the boyfriend finally over?' Lucy's dad asked jokingly.
'So - moving on to Lucy - you're awfully quite.' Kate commented. Lucy's head shoot up in panic as everyone turned to her. I forgot it could be turn on me.
'mmm uh Yeah I had no intention of getting caught in that.' Lucy said referring to earlier - causing her dad to glare.
'Good idea - so tell me about yourself any hobbies?' Kate asked causing Lucy to shake her head 'No - so what do you do for fun?'
'Bar putting the fear god into men's hearts, nothing really.' Lucy joked causing a few light chuckles from everyone.
'What about photography?' Alison asked.
'Yeah! I'm not very good at that but hey, I tried, right?' Lucy awkwardly joked.
'Man you've have changed. Chris do you remember when Alison and her used to play. Lucy here could never let anything go till until she was better than the rest.' Kate said making Alison and Lucy to look at each other.
'We used to be friends?' Lucy and Alison said at the same time.
'Yes you two were inseparable.' Mr. Argent said.
'You two loved to play that you were knights and you were battling a dragon.' Lucy's dad said.
'That's so cute.' Alison said causing Lucy to nod.
'I remember one time Lucy and you-' Lucy tuned out when she heard a buzzing noise coming from beside her. Lucy looked down to see McCall check his phone and there was a message from Stilinski. Lucy rolled her eyes when she spotted the name.
'Do you mind if I go to the bathroom?' McCall asked politely.
'It's right down the hall to the left.' Mrs. Argent told him to which he nodded and left the room.
'As I was saying-' Lucy's dad continued. Someone kill me!
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
'And then he wrapped the paw up in a bandage.' Alison said.
McCall came back into the room and said 'Hey, um, I should get going. Um, thanks for dinner.'
'Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You have to stay for dessert. I wanna know more about you. Sit down.' Kate insisted. Thank god no more listening to Alison talking about McCall. I don't think I could handle more. Please interrogate him.
'Okay.' McCall sat down.
'Alison was just telling us that you work for a vet.' Mrs. Argent said. Non-stop.
'I told them how you put the cast on the dog I hit.' Alison told him. Yes, yes he is a hero he bandaged a dog's foot. Let's talk about something interesting.
'Yeah.' McCall said. See even McCall doesn't care.
'What does your boss think of the animal attacks? Any theories?' Mr. Argent asked. Now this is interesting.
'Everyone was just saying it's a mountain lion.' McCall said.
'It'd have to be a pretty large mountain lion.' Kate doubted.
'What do you think, Scott?' Mrs. Argent asked.
'What would a local vet know about mountain lions?' Lucy asked but was ignored. Right this is the quizzing McCall time - nothing to do with you.
'I don't know. We usually get cats and dogs at the vet - nothing that vicious.' McCall said. Lucy perked up a bit when she was right that he wouldn't know.
'No rabbits? I heard those are pretty vicious? Right Lucy?' Lucy's Dad joked.
'I was a kid. It's not my fault I was afraid of rabbits. You told me they were huge!' Lucy said to her Dad making everyone laugh at her expense.
'Never had to deal with a rabid dog? Oh. I grew up with a lot of dogs. I saw one get rabies from a bat. It was transferred through the bite. You know, people think that a rabid dog just suddenly goes mad. It's a lot more gradual. First stage is subtle changes in behaviour. They're restless, morose. It's the second stage that people know - the furious phase. That's when they attack - and we're talking any moving object. Did you know that a caged rabid dog will break its own teeth, trying to chew through the bars? It'll even rear back and snap its own spine. Can you imagine the amount of force it would take to do that? It's a complete character reversal. This harmless animal - turned into a perfectly vicious killer. And it all started with that one bite.' Mr. Argent told everyone. Well that was terrifying!
'But it died, didn't it?' Alison asked. Of course it did- it's a rabid dog. It can't become normal after that!
'Yes, because your grandfather shot it.' Mrs. Argent said.
'Because he wanted to put it out of its misery.' Alison said naively. Because it's vicious.
'Because it was too dangerous. Something, that out of control, is better off dead.' Mr. Argent said. Duh.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Lucy walked out of the kitchen were her dad and Mrs. Argent were chatting about furniture or something. When did Dad get so domestic? Lucy walked over to Alison and McCall when she spotted Kate has broken up the couple at the doorway.
'What is it?' Alison asked Kate. Oh this looks interesting.
'Uh, I have to ask Scott something.' Kate said. What did McCall do?
'Me?'
'Yeah, you.' Kate said shutting the door behind McCall.
'Okay.'
'Uh. What'd you take from my bag?' Kate asked. Lucy glared at McCall. What a creep! Lucy stepped forward to yell at Scott when someone grabbed her by the arm. Lucy turned to see her Dad shaking her head.
'What?' McCall asked. Still playing the innocent. I'm glad I stopped calling you puppy!
'My bag. What'd you take from it? Do you need me to repeat the question, maybe enunciate more clearly?' Kate said staring daggers at McCall. There is something wrong for him to do that!
'What are you talking about?' Mr. Argent joined the conversation.
'My bag was open in the guest room, and when I left it was shut. And Scott comes in to use the bathroom, he leaves, my bag's open.' Kate said. How do you plan on getting out of this one?!
'He didn't take – ' Alison was cut off.
'Something was taken from my bag. Now, look - I hate to be the accuser here, Scott, because I really do love those adorable brown eyes, but I don't know if you're a klepto, if you're curious, or - or if you're just stupid. But answer the question. What did you take?' I'm liking you more and more.
'Nothing. I swear.'
'You don't mind proving it, do you?' Kate asked. Please show us what you took!
'Are you serious?' Alison asked
'How about you show us what's in your pockets?' Kate asked.
'Dad?' Alison desperately asked.
'Come on, Scott. Prove me wrong.' Kate insisted.
'Uh, I'll prove you wrong. Uh, it wasn't Scott going through your bags. It was me.' Alison said. Plot twist!
'You?'
'Mm - hmm, me.' Alison said holding up a condom. I should never have let Lydia do the talk with Alison.

'So that was interesting!' Lucy said once they were safely up in Alison's room.
'I'm so sorry you had to see that.' Alison apologised.
'No don't that made my day - actually no, that made my life.' Lucy said.
'Oh god that was so embarrassing!' Alison complained hiding her face.
'Yes it was I'm just happy that I was there to watch.' Lucy joked.
'He probably hates me!' Alison said.
'No he doesn't!' Lucy said.
'He probably thinks I'm a freak with a freaky family.' Alison whined.
'That boy could not be more in love with you if you dosed him with love potion.'
'Are you sure?'
'Positive.' Lucy said.
'Oh he is so cute! I really hope he likes me!' Alison said with a dopey grin.
'You like him so much!' Lucy said watching Alison.
'I do not do just a small bit.' Alison said holding up two fingers closely together.
'Oh just a tiny bit.' Lucy mocked holding up her two hands and moving them apart. Making them both laugh.
'Now I have to go stop my dad from telling any more embarrassing stories. You know what's weird? You and I were friends when we were kids. We played knights, not like princess or something.' Lucy said with a laugh. 'Alison and Lucy - the knights of the round table. Alison the good and Lucy the Bold.'
