9.

"I'll tell you. I have nothing to lose after I've lost everything and everyone once already", I took a deep breath,"I'll tell you how died".

Stiles watched me curious but I could tell that he seemed to be a little bit sad seeing me like this. He never saw the side of me that wasn't intimidating and perfect, no one ever saw except Klaus.

"I've been 17 for almost 3 years. I had a really great human life, or witch life I should say. I was born with my magic and it was great. I had my best friend and my boyfriend, my first ever love", I smiled nostalgically,"But you have to know that he was in a gang. They've been pretty brutal and I was fine with it. I was young, dumb and in love. I wasn't able to see all of the red flags from the beginning".

I stopped for a minute. I never liked thinking about my past or even talking about it. My hands were already shaking.

"Are you alright?", Stiles asked me as he took my hand in his,"Only tell me if you're okay with it".

"I'm fine", I said and pulled my hand back,"Can I smoke in here or do I have to go outside? I can use magic to make the smell disappear".

He looked at me confused, why I was thinking about smoking right now, but he nodded anyways.

My shaking hands pulled out a cigarette of my pocket and I lit it up. I inhaled the smoke a few times before I was able to continue:"At the night of my death I've been on a party of my exes gang friends. My ex best friend was there too. It was just like always, we smoked and drank a lot of stuff. Then my boyfriend took me outside to 'show me the stars'".

Stiles smiled as if I would have had a nice life. I laughed ironically:"It was foggy and you could see nothing".

"Oh", he exhaled,"What happened next?".

I lit another cigarette and continued:"He grabbed me at my wrist, one of his gang friend grabbed my other one. The next thing I know is that I was laughing, asking what he is doing. But he ignored me, just like everyone else of his fucking gang. Then I remember sharp pain in my back. My best fucking friend stabbed me from behind. Three times. Three fucking times".

I stopped as I started to get emotional, but I suppressed my tears. I swore to not shed another tear ever again. But I wasn't able to stop my hand from shaking. It was getting harder to breath and I knew a panic attack wasn't far. I focused on my hand but it just got worse, until the cigarette fell out of my hand.

Before I could freak out about it, Stiles wrapped his armes around my body and pulled me close. Klaus always did the same thing, so I imagined that Stiles was Klaus.

I focused on his heart beat and when I was calmer, I spoke up again:"After they dropped me on the ground to let me bleed to death, I could see them kissing. My best friend cheated on me with my boyfriend the whole time and they only kept me close so she'd have someone to kill to join their stupid gang".

Stiles caressed my back with his hand until I continued, even though it was hard to speak:"Before I took my last breath of air Klaus found me. My 'friends' were already gone. He gave me his blood so I would turn into a vampire. Then I died and the next thing I remember is waking up being a hybrid. The witch side was too strong, so I kept it and became a vampire too. Usually you can only be one of them".

"Thank you for trusting me", Stiles said as I pulled out of his arms after I finished,"You've been through a lot".

I was quite while Stiles was debating what to do now.

"I'm sorry. I'm only that emotional because I'm a vampire. We feel every emotion way stronger than humans", I explained,"Or we can decide to feel nothing at all. But what's life worth if you can't feel it".

Stiles nodded and decided to talk about something else:"Aren't vampires only able to walk in the dark, because sun kills them?".

"Yes. But my witch side prevents me from dying in the sun. It still weakens me, but I have something to protect me from that too".

"And what's it like to be a witch?", Stiles asked as he got up and grabbed a coke from the kitchen and serve it on the table in front of us.

He laughed,"Sorry we're out of blood bags", which made me smile too.

"It's fine. After I smoked the blood lust isn't that bad", I said and snapped with my fingers to make the smoke scent to go away,"Being a witch is nice. It's almost like you can turn everything that you think about to reality. But your own emotions can mess with the magic you want to use, so it requires a lot of training".

"That's fascinating", Stiles laughed,"The supernatural always fascinated me in comics and stuff like that. But since it turned reality for me, turns out it's pretty dangerous".

"You're lucky to have friends, who would always save you no matter what", I smiled.

"And I'm lucky too, that you're one of them", Stiles said as he put his arm around my shoulders and pulled me closer.

I leaned my head on his shoulder:"Thanks Stiles. You're the best human I've known so far". I could feel that he was proud.

Suddenly the door opened and a police officer entered. Stiles turned around. I could smell that the man must be his father. They both looked shocked at each other.

"Oh hi dad", Stiles said after a while and he got up.

"Sorry I'm Late but there's been trouble at the police station", Mr Stilinski said as he took his jacket off. He seemed to decide that it's best if he just didn't ask his son about what I was doing in their living room.

"Oh sorry", Stiles said and added, after he saw me walking towards his dad,"That's my friend Jolene Diaz".

"Hello Mr Stilinski", I greeted him and we shook hands,"I actually wanted to talk to you about Isaac. He didn't kill his father because he was with me the whole night and morning until school, I already told that your colleagues at the police station. I just wanted to tell you personally too".

"Okay thank you", he answered a little bit confused.

"So you'll drop the accusation against him", I didn't ask him to do that. I compelled him.

"Of course", he smiled,"Good night you two. Stiles, we'll talk tomorrow".

"Did you compel my dad?", Stiles asked after his das was gone.

"Yes. I wanted to make sure that everything is fine", I nodded and added after a while,"So do you want me to stay or should I go?".

Stiles took a moment but then spoke up:"I'm fine by myself. My dads here too, incase the monster is going to show up. But if you need someone, I'm here for you".

"Then I'll go home", I said and hugged Stiles,"Thank you for everything tonight".

"I should thank you Jolene", he smiled and I left,"See you at school".

It was the next day and school went by quickly. I didn't have any classes with Stiles or Scott the whole morning, so the first time I saw them was in the cafeteria.

"Scotty boy, Stiles", I greeted them.

"Since when do you call Stiles by his name?", Scott asked confused but he was laughing anyways. I shrugged my shoulders and sat down at their table. Seems like Stiles kept his word and didn't tell anyone else about last night.

"Anyways", Stiles continued after Lydia and Allison sat down next to me,"Jolene and I came to the conclusion that the monster only hunts murderers or other people that hurt humans".

He explained it a little bit further and everyone agreed.

"Did you find out what Derek plans to do next?", Allison asked Scott, because he spent the full moon with him and his pack.

"No nothing", but he stopped talking as Derek's pack moved towards our table. Erica sat down next to Scott and I could feel how tense Allison became. Isaac and Boyd stood behind their beta friend.

"What are you talking about?", Derek's female beta laughed. I tried not to roll my eyes.

"How fucking annoying you are", Allison spat, making Lydia give her a side eye.

Erica laughed as she moved her hand towards Scott's thigh:"Oh really? I bet Scott loves it".

"No I don't", Scotty boy hissed and hit her hand away.

"What do you Idiots want?", Stiles asked annoyed.

"Call us idiots one more time and you have a fucking problem Stilinski", Isaac threatened with his claws against Stiles neck.

Everyone at our table was nervous. Derek's pack was provoking a fight directly in school and it worked. I could hear Scott blood pressure rise so I decided to step in.

"Take your claws off Stiles", I said coldly as I was staring Isaac in his piercing blue eyes.

"Or what?", Boyd stepped in when he saw that Isaac wouldn't answer, probably because of our history,"You wanna start a fight in school?".

He moved towards Stiles and Isaac. Boyd had his claws out too. I got up and leaned over the table.

"Move away from him", I pronounced every word,"Or you will lose the fight you're provoking".

The betas seemed to be intimidated but Erica clearly wasn't. She started laughing:"Really Jolene? First Scott, then Isaac and now Stiles? A human?".

I stared at Isaac and Boyd, who still had their claws against Stiles. Then I faced Erica with a smirk on my face, making her wonder.

After enjoying her stupid face I finally spoke up:"Well that means that I still had more guys than you did, dear Erica. Even though you told me yourself, that you're the bitch in school".

Lydia, Allison and even Stiles started to giggle and laugh about Erica. I could hear her heart beat faster and with that her anger increasing. Everyone knew that she would attack us any minute.
