Willow ↠ Teen Wolf

[38]

"Wills!" Stiles quickly wrapped his arm around Willow's waist, helping her stand up.

"I'm okay Sti." She croaked out.

"That didn't look okay." He exclaimed raising his voice.

"Just a stomach bug, Stiles." Willow gritted her teeth, hoping he'd catch on.

Stiles looked like he wanted to say something to her but stopped himself, his arm still wrapped around her.

"All of them Alphas? How does that even work?" He asked Derek, changing the subject.

"I hear there's some kind of a leader. He's called Deucalion." Derek explained as Willow was sure she'd fallen down if it wasn't for Stiles. "We know they have Boyd and Erica."

"How long have you known?" Willow asked clearing her throat. "How long have you kept this minor detail to yourself?"

"Peter, Isaac and I have been looking for them for the last four months." Derek replied making Willow realize Isaac had been lying to her the whole summer.

What confused her more was why she didn't see them coming. A small part of her hoped maybe they didn't know she was there. Maybe they were in Beacon Hills for Derek and Derek only. Seeing as she wasn't a part of Derek's pack it would make sense for her not to see them coming.

"Let's say you find them." Scott finally spoke up. "How do you deal with an Alpha pack?"

"With all the help I can get." Derek replied as Isaac woke up with a gasp.

"Where is she?" He asked with wide eyes. "Where's the girl?"

"What girl?"

"Just take me out, Sti." Willow whispered to him when Derek rushed to Isaac's side.

Stiles nodded, carefully stepping around the mess she made and led her to his jeep. Willow wanted to think over everything before she told Scott and Stiles the truth.

"It was them, wasn't it?" Stiles asked as he started his car. "You're connected to nature." He stated the obvious when Willow shot him a confused look. "Like the animals, you somehow felt the danger."

"Are you insinuating that I'm an animal Sti?" Willow asked with a small smirk.

"No! You know what I mean." He mumbled the end.

"It's like there's something else. I just don't know what." Willow said, groaning in her hands.

"Hey, Wills. Don't be so hard on yourself." Stiles tried to make her feel better.

"Getting the bite and everything..." She muttered, exhaling loudly. "I'm supposed to know and protect you guys."

"Considering you don't have a lot of information and it hasn't been that long, I'd say you're doing pretty amazing."

"Thanks Sti." Willow warmly smiled at him before looking out the window again.

The rest of the ride was pretty silent besides the radio. He stopped in front of her house and awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

"Hey, Wills?" He called out as he opened the door. "Would you like to come to a party with me and Scott tonight? It will be good for us to let loose after the day we had."

"Not sure. Will there be alcohol?" She asked with a small smirk.

"Yep." Stiles nodded with a matching smirk.

"I'll think about it."

Willow didn't know how long she had been staring at her wall, lying on her floor when her phone buzzed again. She picked it up and saw that she had a text from Isaac again. Locking the screen, she resumed what she was doing before. Nothing. She didn't know what to do. Her aunt and uncle weren't home and she didn't know if she should tell them. Instead she tried to come up with a lie to keep them away from Beacon Hills.
