So in the past week, I failed to keep it normal as possible. Derek got arrested for the apparent murder of his sister, Laura, which he didn't murder. There were bite marks over her body, which lead me to believe she was killed by the alpha.
After breakfast, I went back upstairs to finish my hair. I grabbed my hair straightener from the top shelf in my closet. Turning around, I almost screamed when I saw Derek sitting on my window seat.
"What are you doing here? I thought you were in jail." The words came out before I knew what I was saying.
"I was released, obviously," he answered as I checked to see if anyone was near my room.
"Well, what are you doing here, in my room? How long have you been sitting there?" I raised my eyebrows.
"That's not important."
Before anymore words left his mouth, I asked, "Do you regret it? Cause it's okay if you do, we can forget it ever happened."
"Do you want to forget it?" He asked, walking up to me.
"No, not really," I mumbled, knowing he'd still hear me. Truth is, I couldn't stop thinking about the kiss.
"Good, neither do I." He was close enough to kiss me but I took a step back.
"I don't know if I can do this, my last relationship didn't end so well," I started off, "I need some time...to think. Please." My eyes turned glassy. Derek nodded and made an exit for my window.
Once he was gone, I sat on my bed and let my tears roll down my face.
"Hey Mads, do you know where my lipgloss is?" Allison asked, appearing in my room.
Quickly removing any trace of salty tears, I replied, "Check in the boxes downstairs, there are still some stuff left in there from the move." I walk past her and in to the bathroom and continue on with straightening my hair.
I manage to find Scott and Stiles once I arrive at school. I hear Scott mention Allison.
"What about Allison?" I asked.
"Have you seen her?" He questioned desperately.
"Yeah, she's with Lydia, down the hall." I see the relief on Scott's face.
"Can I talk to you guys for a moment?" They both nod and I pulled them into an empty classroom.
"I know you are a werewolf," I came straight out with it. Scott looks worried and shocked. "But I won't tell anyone, I promise. Allison cares too much about you."
"How do you know?" Stiles asked. I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.
"Don't play dumb, I know you know about my family."
"Okay fine, but how do we know that we can trust you?"
"Cause I have a secret of my own. I'll show you, but you cannot tell anyone about this, not even Allison. No one." They nodded their heads. "I'm a witch."
"Can you be serious, please?" Scott shot me a look. I looked over to the open window and it closed. Both jaws dropped.
"What else can you do? Fly? Turn me into a frog?" Stiles asked.
"You're an idiot, Stilinski," I whispered. Then I looked to Scott. "If you need any help, come find me. I might be able help you in a witchy way."
At lunch I grabbed an apple to eat and sat down with Jeremy, Ashley, Cassandra (Cassie), Natalie and Ben. They are my best friends and I haven't had any in a while since I move around a lot.
"I heard Derek Hale got released from custody last night," Ashley said, "He creeps me out, I've only seen him once and he just stared at me with his piercing green eyes."
"I don't know, he's kind of cute, his pale green eyes make me want to melt," I said smirking. Cassie laughed and agreed with me.
I saw Ben give Ashley a kiss, that made me think of when Derek and I kissed. I glanced of my shoulder and saw a blonde girl with frizzy hair sitting by herself.
"Who is she?" I asked.
"I think her name is Erica, she epileptic. I actually feel bad for her," Cassie told me.
"We should invite her over, she looks lonely." I looked back to the group.
"I don't think we should, Erica is a freak," Ashley responded.
Rolling my eyes, I got out of my seat and sat at another table with Erica.
"You're Erica, right?" The blonde nodded. "I'm Madison. Mads or Maddie will do." I smiled.
"Did someone put you up to this?" She asked.
"No, you look like you could use a friend. So, what do you say?"
"Sure, why not." She smiled shyly.
"Cool. What are you studying?" I questioned.
"It's for history, I got a C but I need to at least get a B or a B+," she stated.
"I'll help. Not to brag or anything but I am pretty good with history," I chuckled. "What's your topic?"
"Mythology, werewolves," she responded.
"Why werewolves?" I frowned.
"I don't know, I find them interesting."
"You watch too much twilight, don't you?" I asked smirking. Erica didn't say anything, just blushed. "Don't worry, I love the movie too. Paul is my favourite werewolf." More like Derek...
The whole time during lunch I helped Erica with my knowledge of werewolves, and she was pretty impressed.
Allison opened her closet, searching for something to wear for the group date. She picked something out of her closet and showed Lydia and I.
"Mmm, pass," Lydia dismissed making a face.
As Allison started to turn around, she gave me a look. I simply shrugged.
She grabbed another dressy top. It was a mix of green and orange. I made a face. "Pass."
Lydia sighed and got off Allison's bed. "Let me see." She started going through the clothes. "Pass. Pass. Pass on all of it. God, Allison, respect for your taste is dwindling by the second." She laughed, grabbing another piece of clothing. "Hmm. This." She handed it to Allison and she checked it out on the mirror.
I heard the door open and in came Dad.
"Dad. Hello." I blinked.
"Right. I'm sorry. I completely forgot to knock," Dad said.
Then Lydia landed on the bed, posing flirtatiously. I raised my eyebrows, looking down at her. "Hi, Mr. Argent."
I cleared my throat, "Dad, do you need something?"
"I wanted to tell you that you'll both be top staying in tonight."
"What?" Allison asked in disbelief, "I'm going out with my friends tonight."
"Not when some animal out there is attacking people." I rolled my eyes.
"Dad, Dad..."
"It's out of my hands. There's a curfew. No one's allowed out past 9:30pm," Dad defended as my sister threw the piece of clothing onto her bed. "Hey, no more arguing."
When he left, Lydia scoffed, "Someone's daddy's little girl." It used to be me.
"Sometimes. But not tonight." I frowned at Allison's words. She put on her beanie and went to the window. She drawed the curtains back and open it.
I walked over to the window when she climbed out of it.
"What are you doing?" Lydia asked with wide eyes.
Then Allison jumped off the ledge, doing a flip and landing on her feet.
"Eight years gymnastics with Madison. Are you coming?"
"I'll take the stairs."
"Good luck," I smirked down at my sister.
I let out a deep breath as the cold air hit my face. After Allison and Lydia had left, I decided to go for a walk and explore the town. I had found some of the best and worst places to go, eventually I found a petrol station.
I scanned the lolly isle and grabbed a small bag of red liquorice, then I grabbed a bottled water.
I placed the items in front of the cashier, who gave me a warm smile. I returned one.
"It's chilly out there," I made some small talk, gesturing to outside.
"Yeah, it is. Apparently there are going to be more," she replied.
I paid for my items, "Have a good night."
"You too, sweetie."
I grabbed them, then waved over my shoulder. Opening up the bottle, I took a sip.
"Madison?" I stopped walking, freezing in my tracks.
Looking up, I saw Dad standing by his car. I frowned, swallowing the water. I took the bottle away from my mouth, screwing the cap on. "Dad? What are you doing here?"
I walked closer, then saw a very familiar car and its owner, Derek. I looked over to the other hunters, then back to Dad.
I sighed, "I don't even want to know." I bit my lip before getting Dad's red SUV.
