There's not much to say except I'm sorry, I really have no excuse why I'm posting this chapter so late but anyway here it is. Hope you all like it.
As they got off the bus Rachel followed Isaac back to the car, but she paused leaning on the door. "You ok?" Isaac paused staring at her.
"I'm fine," she scoffed as he raised his hands in defense.
"Alright, alright," he laughed climbing in Rachel did the same and looked out her window as Scott and Stiles slowly moved their way toward Stiles jeep. Isaac had brought her home and the rest of the day went on a slow pace. As night approached Isaac seemed more restless and Rachel remained silent. Isaac's phone rang and he nearly pounced. "Hello?" Isaac seemed nervous to whoever he was talking to.
"Ok, we'll be over shortly," he answered as Rachel sat up on the couch and looked at her brother funny.
"We'll be over where shortly?" she asked as he hung up.
"Where are we going to be over soon?"
"Scott's house," Isaac answered walking into the kitchen. "Two doctors have been taken Stiles and Scott linked them as healers."
"Great this maniac is still at large," she rolled her eyes.
"There were two more sacri-" Rachel stopped him and walked over to her brother covering his mouth.
"Go, I'll join you two soon, Scott's house?" she asked as Isaac nodded.
"Why aren't you..."
"Isaac, I still have some things to do, you wouldn't understand it," she sighed as he nodded and left the house locking the front door behind him. Rachel ran up the stairs and turned the computer on quickly hitting the call button on her phone, but when Stiles didn't answer she called someone else.
"Hello?" Keith asked as she stared at her computer reading. "Hello?" he asked a little louder.
"Sorry, hi, can you come over?" she said without taking her eyes off the screen.
"Yeah, no problem, I'll be there in a few," he answered before hanging up, Rachel went back to her research finding nothing of use of what was happening in Beacon Hills. The doorbell rang and she ran down the stairs letting Keith in. She hugged him and sneezed her eyes watering up.
"What are you wearing?" she asked rubbing her eyes as he sniffed himself.
"Cologne," he laughed as she brought him up to her room spraying her perfume on him to mask the smell. "What? You don't like it?"
"I can't stand it," she laughed sitting back at the computer.
"Why did you invite me over anyway?"
"I thought you could be of use, your dad's a doctor right?"
"Yeah, so what?" he asked pulling a chair next to her.
"Well these murders happening around Beacon Hills, they are all linked," she said trying not to give too much information to him.
"Two doctors have been taken tonight, what if your dad was the third?"
"I think my dad can take care of himself," Keith chuckled turning her chair towards him.
"Keith, this isn't funny, your dad can be in complete and utter danger," she whispered staring into his eyes. A light fever rose to her face causing her body to break out into a sweat.
"My dad is always in danger," Keith whispered as Rachel stood up and took his hands. He stood up and looked at her for a moment before grabbing the back of her head and pulled her into his lips. Their was no fighting back from her something she usually did it's almost as if she was accepting what was happening. A soft growl came from her and Keith pulled back looking at her strangely, but before he could ask another question she was already pulling his shirt off. She numbed her mind and conscience as she pushed Keith on the bed sitting on his lap as she kissed him harder. Keith kissed her neck as he unbuttoned her shirt.
"Your dad, he could be a target," she finally said her mind slowly returning.
"Who cares," Keith spoke pulling himself away from her laying on her bed. Turning the night stand light off she climbed toward him kissing his chest and neck. The moon was only half full as the light shined through the window of her room.
The next morning she woke a smile wide across her face as she looked at the dark haired boy next to her. "Good morning Stiles," she whispered pulling herself closer to him resting her head on his back.
"Stiles?" Keith asked turning his head in her direction.
"Oh my God," she gasped jumping out of bed pulling her sheets off with her covering herself up. "Oh my God," she screamed averting her eyes from Keith who stood up. He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist kissing her neck. "Get away from me," she blurted pushing him back. "Stop it," she snapped shoving him again. Frightened she ran into the bathroom and locked the door.
"I can..."
"Go home...please," she blurted covering her face. Keith stood on the other side of the door leaning against it he sighed and patted the door before gathering all his articles of clothing he moved toward the door and whispered a 'goodbye' before leaving. Rachel turned her shower on and waited for the cold water to run warm. She looked back at herself in the mirror a small immature smile appeared on her face as some moments of last night reappeared in her head. "No," she whispered to herself realizing how wrong she was. "We are not going to go through last year all over again," she sighed stepping into the shower the water wasn't completely warm yet and sent goosebumps up her arms. "I can't throw my life away because of one stupid mistake last night," she added as she began to clean herself.
When she finished dressing and packing for school Rachel grabbed her bike from the garage and began riding to school. When she reached the campus she found Isaac sitting on the hood of his car. "What happened to I'll be there soon?" he asked crossing his arms as she smiled.
"I got carried away with homework and research," she smiled as he squinted her heart had skipped a beat.
"What happened last night?" he questioned her following her into the school.
"I don't want to talk about it," she answered walking to her locker.
"Rachel what happened last night?"
"I said I don't want to talk about," she replied her attitude less bubbly then she had started when she first saw him. She pulled her books out and replaced the ones she didn't need.
"Don't make me ask again, Rachel," Isaac sighed slightly impatient with her.
"I don't want to talk about it!" she screamed slamming the locker door bending the metal a little. She looked around the crowd that was forming. "I'm going to class," she sighed as Isaac followed her, mainly since they shared the same first class together.
"Hey, I have a plan to protect Derek," Boyd said catching up to Rachel and Isaac.
"What, it's not something that's gonna get us killed is it?" she squinted at him as he laughed.
"If it goes right then no, wait you want to help?" Boyd looked at her slightly impressed as well her brother.
"Yeah, I actually do," she smiled as Boyd nodded. "Ok, meet me at Derek's in an hour," he pointed to both of them before running off.
"Pick me up at the house?" she asked as Isaac looked at her funny. "I'm skipping no teacher has seen me yet, I'll just write a sick note later, I'll meet you at home, I can't leave my bike here," she sighed as Isaac nodded and Rachel ran to her bike dodging incoming students.
"Where are you going?" someone asked as she took a breath. She turned and found Stiles standing behind her.
"Don't scare me like that," she bit her lip looking around. "I'm going home if you must know."
"Why?"
"I don't feel good," she shrugged sitting on her bike as Stiles nodded and stepped closer to her.
"I'll call you later?"
"I'd like that," she smiled before driving away back to her house where she waited for Isaac who came a short time after her. Boyd sat in the front causing her to sit in the back.
"So what's this plan?"
"Flood the apartment and electrocute anyone who walks in it."
"Oh that's REAL smart," she said sarcastically.
"Hey we can drop you off at school," Isaac smiled looking at her through his rear view mirror as she smiled back.
"I'm sorry, it could work, we just have to be on high grounds," she smiled as Boyd nodded knowing that already. They walked into the apartment building and took the elevator to the pent house. "Nice place you have here," Rachel smirked looking around the apartment.
"What are you three doing here?" Derek asked annoyed, "shouldn't you be in School?"
"Well we got out on account of being sick," Isaac answered. "Boyd has a stomach thing while I have a migraine."
"What about her?" Derek pointed at Rachel who smiled back.
"I'm just skipping," she sat on a desk as Boyd and Isaac began talking to Derek about the plan Boyd came up with. Rachel wondered around staring at the massive room Derek had rented out, she liked it, she thought it fit better then living in the woods in a burned down building. "Will it work?" she asked Derek thinking the boys plan was idiotic.
"We have nothing else to work with," Derek answered as Rachel rolled her eyes and walked into the hallway finding a fire hose she dragged it in and threw it on the ground as the water flowed into the room.
"Sorry," she apologized feeling weird filling a nice apartment with water. It took them a few hours to fill the entire room mid shin deep but they did it.
"Ok, everyone ready?" Boyd asked as Isaac and Rachel stood on a ledge while Derek stood on the ledge behind them and Boyd another. Boyd threw an electrical wire which sparked the second it hit the water.
"Now we wait," she sighed sitting down as everyone looked at her. "What? I'm not standing for hours on end," she smirked closing her eyes leaning on the pillar as her brother sat next to her.
