"Nothing," I lie. I don't want to tell him I'm bummed because I may never get the chance to hang out with Theo Raeken ever again. It's a pretty shallow reason, but hey, I'm a normal, hormonal teenage girl. Before Scott can ask any more questions, I turn to the girl beside him. "Who are you?"
"Kira," she says with a smile.
"Nice to meet you, Kira," I say back. "I'm Sam." To mess with the couple, I say, "I'm so glad our long distance relationship worked out, Scotty."
Kira tenses up and inches away from Scott. "What?"
Scott frowns. "Sam!"
I laugh at their expressions. "I'm joking, Kira. Don't worry. I don't think I can ever date my brother in a million years. I don't do incest."
Kira chuckles uneasily. "I actually panicked for a second there."
"Don't worry, Kira," Scott reassures her. "You're the only one for me."
I let out a groan as they kiss in front of me. "Can you not do that now? I'm right here."
Stiles joins us a second later. He catches Scott and Kira mid-kiss. "Woah, what's the occasion?"
"Nothing," Kira and Scott say in unison.
Stiles shrugs. He sits beside me and dumps his books on the table. He faces me and asks begrudgingly, "How'd it go with Theo?"
"What do you mean?"
"Did he"—Stiles makes a face—"ask you out?" It's obvious that he doesn't approve of Theo.
"Uh," I start, "yeah, I guess."
"What did you say?" Stiles demands.
"I kind of, um," I scratch the back of my neck. It's kind of embarrassing to admit that I said no to Theo's offer to eat lunch with me, "turned him down."
Stiles's eyebrows scrunch up. "What? I thought you had this huge crush on him or something?"
"I don't," I say, "I just think he's really cute."
"Isn't that reason enough to say yes, though?" Kira asks, joining in on the conversation. She, along with Scott, is obviously listening to us talking about Theo.
"I didn't want to seem too eager," I mutter. "Anyway, whatever. I'd much rather eat with you guys on my first day."
Stiles lets out a scoff. "Yeah, okay."
"Speak of the devil," Kira says.
"You talking about me?"
I turn back and see Theo standing behind me, smirking. Great, he has probably heard our conversation.
"No," I deny immediately. This boy can never know what I think of him.
Theo sits beside me. "Mind if I sit?"
"You're already sitting," Stiles mutters.
Theo ignores Stiles's remark. He faces me. "So, I heard you were ready to accept my offer."
"What offer?" I ask, pretending that I forgot about our conversation earlier today.
"Come on, princess," Theo says. "I just want to get to know Scott's sister more."
"Why?" I blurt out.
"Yeah, Theo," Stiles butts in. "Why?"
"Because I think she's cute." Theo winks. "I'll pick you up from your house on Saturday, princess. Wear anything you'd like. Or nothing, I won't complain."
Scott coughs. "Okay, I think I've heard enough. Bye, Theo."
Theo laughs. He stands up and before he leaves, he turns to me and says, "7pm. And don't bother cancelling. I know you want this as much as I do. After all, I'm 'hot', right?" Before I could retaliate, Theo has already left.
I face Scott and say, "Why did you have to tell him I thought he was hot, Scott?"
Scott raises an eyebrow. "Sam, I never told him anything."
