46.

The scream was loud and high pitched. It had to belong to a girl.

"The front yard", I located the scream and ran to the window, where I fell out with Chris Argent. What I saw down there made me hold my breath.

I couldn't even speak up seeing her kneeling next to the body of her father with his blood on her hands. Within seconds Isaac stood next to me, also looking down at Allison.

He shouted her name and jumped out of the window, landing on his unsteady feet. The vervain was still weakening him. Isaac wanted to care for Allison, but she just ignored him, until his hands touched her arms and she pushed him away from her.

The whole pack was now standing next to me trying to see what's going on down there. Scott was the next one to jump down. Malia followed shortly after. I looked over to Lydia and Stiles, who seemed to be extremely frightened. First the fight and now Allisons dad fighting for life. I looked over to Aiden and he seemed to understand, what I wanted to do.

Aiden grabbed Lydia gently and jumped through the window with her. Lydia had to try and talk to Allison. Scott and Isaac were pushed away. Liam followed shortly after. I looked at Stiles:"You alright?".

"We need to get away from here Jolene", Stiles spoke up, ignoring my question,"We can't risk any police asking questions".

"I know", I nodded and glared at Stiles with open arms, adding with a smirk on my face,"Come on. We'll jump down".

Stiles hesitated, not knowing if it would be safe to jump. Well it certainly was with me being supernatural, but Stiles also wasn't sure what it would look like, when he's clinging to my body. Maybe even screaming.

"Fine", Stiles gave in and wrapped his arms around my body in a really tight way. I could feel his breath on my body, sending shivers down my back. As we jumped, I remembered him telling me, that he loves me. It felt as if I was flying for a short moment until my feet hit the ground and I had to face reality again. We didn't have any time for love drama.

Before I was able to take a breath, Scott already grabbed my arm and pulled me to Allison and her father, who had blood all over his body. It's smell made the veins under my eyes turn pitch back. I wanted blood, but I had to focus.

"Can you do something?", Scott asked with a shaking voice, which he was trying to calm down. I scanned the man's body. The blood came from the cuts of the window glass. They didn't look deep, just really bloody. But his head probably had an injury.

"I won't give him my blood. If that's what you wanna know", I spat and my gaze met his, then Allison, who's Make-up was all over her face from crying.

"Then do a spell", she shouted looking at me with anger in her voice,"You killed him!".

"He's alive you-", I spoke, but decided it would be best to stay calm. That at least one of us was thinking straight.

"Bring him into a hospital or whatever you humans do", I shrugged and stood up talking loud enough everyone could hear me,"We have to go before the cops arrive or the unconscious hunters wake up again".

Liam and Stiles agreed. Malia was unsure, but decided to take my side. Aiden decided to talk for Lydia and agreed too. Only Scott and Isaac didn't know what to do.

"Scott", I said and turned towards him,"You have to go with us. You're weakend from the wolvesbane",

"I can't", he shook his head and added quietly,"I can't leave her alone".

I wasn't able to suppress the eye roll and turned to Stiles. Maybe he could get Scott to think straight again. While Stiles talked to his friend I looked over at Isaac, because he was awkwardly quiet ever since his girlfriend pushed him away. He was sitting in the corner of the front yard and stared at the floor. Allison made him feel useless just when he thought he was important to someone.

"We can go", Stiles spoke up behind me, making me turn around.

"I'll drive. Get Liam and Scott in my car. I'll take Isaac with us too", I explained,"We can't leave him here". Stiles nodded quickly.

Lydia said while I was passing by to get to Isaac:"We'll be at the hospital and wait for news about Chris. I'll call you if something happens". I agreed and she left with Aiden and Malia.

I kneeled down to Isaac:"Come on. We have to get away". He didn't answer, making me grab his arm and drag him with me.

"Let me go!", he shouted and tried to shrug me of, but I was stronger than him.

I opened the back door of my car and dropped Isaac next to Liam and Scott, while scoffing:"Hold him back. If he scratches anything than y'all will regret it". I wasn't looking forward to helping Isaac and him thanking me with destroying my car.

I got in the driver seat and looked over to Stiles to see if he was alright. He gave me a brief smile and I drove home.

Isaac was calm again, when we entered my apartment. We sat down in silence. No one of us dared to say a word. We didn't want to talk about what happened. It was over and to late to change anything.

Everyone had a blank face expression, but Liam was different than the others, making me speak up:"Liam? What are you thinking about?".

"What if he dies?", he answered, making the others look up too.

"Than he's gone. Forever", I answered coldly, which surprised the guys.

"And what about Allison and her family?", Liam asked again.

"They have to live with it", I said and now Scott gave me a death stare.

"That's not helpful", the alpha told me,"They'll grief, that's what Chris family does, if he dies. Just living with it is a bit harsh".

"But that's life, Scotty boy", I snapped back,"People die or leave you alone as if they would be dead already. Don't give Liam the opportunity to think that life is fair, because it isn't".

"Didn't you cry too, when Derek died, when he left? Or when Klaus left you?", Liam asked curious, before Scott was able to answer me.

I swallowed hard:"If I would cry every time somebody left, I would never stop crying".

"Oh", the beta said,"I'm sorry for stirring it up".

"It's fine", I shrugged it off and looked over to Stiles to see he was already staring at me. I couldn't help but smile.

Suddenly Scott's phone rang and he picked up. It was Lydia:"Chris made it. He is alive. The doctors say that he's going to be alright".

Everyone of us stopped holding their breath as we heard the relieving words come out of Lydia's mouth. She continued:"I thinks it's best if you and Isaac come here. For Allison and to talk to Chris. You need to tell him to stop trying to kill us or something".

"Okay", Scott answered,"Did she know about it?".

"What?".

"Did Allison know that her dad tried to kill us", Scott repeated himself.

"No", Lydia answered,"She would've stopped him".

Scott said goodbye and left with Liam and Isaac to go to the hospital. Stiles decided to stay with me.

We didn't speak up for quiete a while. Until Stiles said:"I've felt so useless today".

"What do you mean Stiles?", I said confused.

"I'm just human. I didn't do anything. I was useless", he said,"Allison can fight at least, even though she isn't supernatural".

"So you wanna learn how to fight?", I asked, immediately picking up what he was trying to tell me.

"Yes", Stiles smiled,"Scott never wanted to teach me".

"If you want to, I can teach you right now", I answered and stood up, moving over to my kitchen. Stiles followed me, signaling me, that he wanted to.

"Knife or gun?", I smirked as I opened the cupboard that holds my weapons.

"You're a hybrid and still own weapons in you kitchen?", he laughed, but when he realized I wasn't joking, he added:"Knife".
