I only own my OC's and plot.
"Don't tell her anything. I did this for her." Scott said as he went to follow Derek out of the house. Stiles was sitting on the stairs and watched Scott leave. Stiles was really upset, and so was Isaac and Brian. Ariel and Aly stood by me, wondering what they're going to say or do when I'm awake. I seemed to sleep forever before waking up. It was only the beginning of everything that was to come.
"What're we going to do?" Ariel said, knowing how I would feel since this is identical to what happened with Isaac last year.
"We say nothing." Stiles said coming back into the room.
"Stiles, she's going to ask." Aly said looking at him like he was crazy for even suggesting that.
"We simply say that something came up...that he needed to get away because he couldn't watch everyone he cares about to keep getting hurt. Everyone understand?" Stiles said, looking like he was going to kill someone.
"Stiles-" Aly said, coming up behind him.
"I really just need to be alone." He said, walking out the door. Aly looked at Ariel with hurt in her eyes. It was then that I woke up, gasping for air.
"Ashley?" Brian said, getting up from the chair across from the couch. I looked at everyone as I sat up. I was confused. I saw everyone except Scott.
"Where is he?" I said, looking around worried. Everyone fell silent and put their heads down.
"Ash-"
"What happened?"
"Ash-"
"Where am I?"
"ASH-" Ariel said grabbing me by the shoulders. I looked at her and started to cry.
"Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on." I say frustrated. They all exchanged looks and everyone leaves except Brian. He walks over and sits next to me on the couch.
"He left."
"WHAT? What do you mean he left? Where is he? Where did he go? Why? When will he be back?" I say crying again.
"Ash, calm down-"
"What happened?"
"Derek happened." Brian said, looking at me with a hurtful look in his eyes.
*BRIAN'S POV*
I looked at Ashley and the hurt in her eyes. How was I supposed to explain all this to her? Do I say what Stiles told us to say or do I tell her the truth? Why did everyone leave me to tell her? What do I say?
"What do you mean?" She said, looking like she was going to scream. I sigh and explain.
"Derek poisoned you somehow. Scott left because...because he couldn't stand to see everyone he loves keep getting hurt...and by everyoone-"
"He means me, doesn't he?" She said quietly. I nod.
"He only wants what was best, especially for you. He thought this was best-"
"Stop-"
"Ashley I'm-"
"Just stop."
"Please let me explain."
"What is there to explain? He just left and no one will tell me the truth anymore!"
"It is the truth!"
"No. Everyone has been lying to me ever since the night of my dream. You don't think I can tell? I'm alot smarter than that!" Ashley said, screaming. I could tell she wasn't only angry, but frustrated. Tears continued to well in her eyes.
"He'll be back." I say. She looks at me with a look of hope on her face. I knew that I had yet lied to her again.
"Did he say when?" I shake my head.
"Soon." I say, hoping she'll believe me.
