Chapter Thirty-Four
The Overlooked


The steel door of the loft slides back with a clang and Jennifer rushes in. Voice tremulous with panic as she calls out to the darkened loft, "Derek? Derek, where are you?" 

"Right here." She spins around and sees Derek step out of the shadows as if he'd been waiting in the darkness for her. "Thank God." She sighed in relief before rushing over, arms wrapping around him. "Something happened at the recital, at the school, okay? I need to tell you before you hear it, before you hear it for any of them." 

"From who?" 

"Scott, Stiles, Sawyer. They're gonna tell you things- things you can't believe. You have to trust me, okay? You trust me." Jennifer pleaded and Derek nodded, "What is it?" He asked. "Promise you'll listen to me." She said almost desperately, "I promise." 

She kisses him, pressing her lips desperately to his but there's a hesitancy in him making her pull back to look him in the eyes, noticing a lack of reaction, a visible unease. "They're already here, aren't they?" She said, stepping away from him Scott, Stiles and Sawyer out from behind the wall. 

Jennifer backs away, obviously a bit nervous but tries to play it off, "So, they told you it was me? That I'm the one taking people?" She asked. "We told him you're the one killing people." Scott corrected making her scoff, "Oh, that's right. Committing human sacrifices? What, cutting their throats? Yeah, I probably do it on my lunch hour- that way, I can get back to teaching high school English the rest of the day. Makes perfect sense." Jennifer said. 

"Where's our dad?" Stiles and Sawyer asked, eyes full of tears and Jennifer looked at them crazy, "How should I know? Derek, tell me you don't believe this?" Jennifer asked looking back at Derek. "Do you know what happened to their father?" Derek asked and Jennifer scoffed, "No!" She said. Her innocent act was slowly crumbling more and more every second. "How about you ask her why she tried to kill Lydia and I." Sawyer said, making Jennifer look at her.
