Doubts

Daire looked around the hall for Scott and Stiles, since she's still avoiding her aunt and uncle coming to school early seemed like one of the only options. Though when she left Allison was still getting ready as in threw a pillow at Daire's head and told her to let her sleep.


" It's not like there's a Lycanthropy for Beginners class you can take" Stiles voice carried over to her. She looked over and see the two boys walking down the hall.


" Yeah, not a class, but maybe a teacher" Scott says looking at Stiles to see what he thinks of the idea.


" Who Derek?" she asked falling in step with them. Stiles smacks the back of Scotts head.


" You forgetting the part where we got him tossed in jail?" he says putting his arm down.


" Yeah, I know, but chasing her, dragging her to the back of the bus, it felt so real." Scott continued, Daire for one was lost dragging who? Ran through her mind before she could ask Stiles interrupted," How real?"


" Like it actually happened" Scott concluded.


" Okay I'm missing something, dragging who?" Daire asked stopping in front of them.


" Allison" Scott said as he opened the door to the school. They stop suddenly a large school bus was in the parking lot, its emergency door pried open with blood dried on the back and inside.


" Uh, Scott I think it did happen" Stiles says his mouth slightly open in shock.



" Scott she's fine, I saw her when I left for school, she was alive enough to throw a pillow at me for waking her up at 5:30" Daire told him trying to comfort the poor kid who probably just attacked some innocent man or killed some wild animal.


" She's not answering my texts guys" he said panicking


" It could just be an amazing coincidence" Stiles told him walking down the hallway all three of us looking for Allison.


" Just help me find her" Scott said looking back and forth trying to find his girl friend. We continued down the hallway, Stiles and Daire knew that Allison's fine but Scott seeing that bus, and his dream began to panic. He kept on running his hand through his hair. Finally he ran into a locker pressing his forehead on the cool metal.


" Scott you need to calm down, your heart beat, bring it down or your going to shift," Daire whispered to him. He takes a deep breath then punches the locker causing it to bend and open. Realizing what he just did he backs up just to run into the tall dark haired beauty.


" You scared the hell out of me," Allison tells him smiling before she reaches down to grab her books she dropped.


" You're okay" Scott says a look of relief washes over him.


" Once my heart starts beating again, yeah" Allison teases him picking up her books, " what?" she asks when she notices Scott looks like he was going to cry from knowing she was alright.


" I'm just happy to see you," he tells her. The moment ended when the intercom went off, " Attention, students, this is your principal. I know you're all wondering about the incident that occurred last night to one of our buses. While the police work to determine what happened, classes will proceed as scheduled thank you"


" And that is our queue to go" Daire told Scott bumping Allison with her shoulder.


She ruffles his hair, " Save us a seat at lunch?" she asks him.


" Yeah" Scott replies, Daire rolled her eyes at the two lovebirds


" Come on you two, lets go we have more pressing issues like god forbid chemistry or better known as devil spawn" she teased and dragged Allison away.



"It could have been my blood" Scott tells Stiles, we were trying to determine what exactly happened last night and the two of them were spit balling ideas.


" Could have been animal blood" Stiles suggests, "You know, maybe you caught a rabbit or something"


"And did what?" Scott asks


"Ate it" Stiles tells him, Daire could almost hear the silent duh after what he just said.


"Raw?" Scott asks shocked by the idea.


" No, you stopped to bake it in a little werewolf oven." Stiles says sarcastically


" I don't know. You're the one who can't remember anything!" Stiles continues.


" Mr. Stilinksi, if that's your idea of a hushed whisper, you might want to pull the headphones out every once in a while. I think you, Mr. McCall and Ms. Argent would benefit from a little distance, yes?" Mr. Harris asks. Daire looked over and gave Stiles her best stink eye. She dis not want to move.


"No" Stiles replies. Mr. Harris then points at us causing us to scatter. "Let me know if the separation anxiety gets to be to much" Harris tells us. Daire found an open seat next to a very tall kid, his curly hair is a sandy brown color and his eyes are a bright clear blue. She did notice that he had a little discoloring along his strong jaw line but just assumed it was from a sport. She glanced up at the boy, " Um, is it okay if I sit here?" Daire asked. He glanced at her and his eyes widen but he nods and she set her stuff down on the table and sat on the stool, " I'm Daire Argent" she told him giving him a shy smile.


He looks at her then looks down at his notes, " Isaac Lahey" he mumbles.


Before Daire could say anything else the girl who Scott was now sitting next to gets up, " Hey, I think they found something." This causes everyone even Isaac to get up and walk to the windows. Daire walked up next to Scott, an ambulance was in the parking lot and a gurney was being rolled in with a man on it.


" That's not a rabbit," Scott tells her and Stiles under his breath.


Daire continued to stare out the window when suddenly the man jumps up yelling. Even though she was trained to always remain cool and collected she couldn't help but let out her own startled scream and jumped back right into Isaac. He quickly grabs her elbows preventing her from falling on her butt. " Thank you" she told him breathlessly turning around to face him.


His cheeks turn a light shade of pink, " It's no problem, are you alright?" he asks looking at Daire.


Now it was her turn to blush, " Yeah I'm fine, usually I'm a lot stronger then that. I don't know why he scared me so much" she giggled nervously it was true, she had seen scarier things then an old man jumping and screaming bloody murder and it worried her that she was becoming too soft to protect Scott and others her family would put in peril.


" It wasn't just you, everyone screamed" Isaac informs her.


" Oh, I guess that's better" she smiled nervously. Isaac just nods his head and heads back to his seat. Daire on the other hand walked over to Scott and Stiles.


" Its good he's not dead" Stiles reassures Scott.


"Guys I did that" Scott tells us shocked.



At lunch Stiles, Scott and Daire were still on the topic of Scotts dream and the almost dead guy that caused her to doubt herself. Lost in her train of thought Daire didn't even notice that Lydia, Jackson, Allison and Danny were sitting at their table until Danny made some gross comment about someone looking at Lydia's coin slot.. eesh.


" So I hear they're saying its some type of animal attack, probably a cougar" Danny says taking a bite out of his apple.


" I heard mountain lion" Jackass replies.


" A cougar is a mountain lion." Lydia states. Everyone was looking at her dumbfounded guess she's not just a pretty face after all, "Isn't it?" she asked stupidly. Guess not.


"Who cares? The guy's probably some homeless tweaker who's gonna die anyway" Jackson comments, wow way to be concerned about a poor mans life Daire thought to herself.


"Actually, I just found out who it is. Check it out" he pulls up a report on his phone and they all lean over the lunch table to watch it.


" I know this guy," Scott states


" You do?" Allison asks.


" Yeah when I used to take the bus back when I lived with my dad. He was the driver." Scott explained. Stiles and Daire share a look knowing that this is not going well for them.


"Can we talk about something slightly more fun, please? Like, oh, where are we going tomorrow night?" Lydia asks dropping her fork and leaning over to look at Allison and Scott who both just shoved a forkful of food into their mouths. " You said you and Scott were hanging out tomorrow night, right?" she asks.


Allison takes a nervous swallow of her food, " Um, we were thinking of what were gonna do" she glances at Scott then at Lydia knowing that she just dug herself a big hole.


" Well, I am not sitting home again watching lacrosse videos, so if the five of us are hanging out, we are doing something fun." Lydia says glancing at Daire then Allison and Scott.


" Wait a minute who said I was joining you guys?" Daire asked.


Lydia just tilted her head, " Its not like you have plans or anything"


" Well I'm not going to be a fifth wheel and I already have plans with a certain Damon Salvatore, or maybe it was Gray Fullbuster I have to check. But bottom line I have a date with Netflix" she smiled at Lydia before turning back to her sandwich.


Daire basically ignored the whole wait hanging out us and them? Conversation and focused on her lunch until Jackson stated, " You know what else sounds like fun? Stabbing myself in the face with this fork"


" Can I have the honors?" she asked excitedly reaching over to grab the fork. Lydia swatted her hand away and grabbed the fork.


" How about bowling? You love to bowl" Lydia asks her boyfriend.


"Yeah, with actual competition" Jackson rolls his eyes


" How do you know we're not actual competition?" Allison asks Daire smiled because she knew that Jackass has now invoked the competitive side of Allison and he is now screwed. " You can bowl, right?" she asks Scott. Daire looked over to see Stiles shaking his head and widening his eyes. Ok so obviously Scott cant bowl.


"Sort of" Scott replies.


" Is it sort of or yes?" Jackson asks intimidating


"Yes, in fact I'm a great bowler" Scott replies not shrinking down to Jackson. And all Daire could think was ah hell
