  "So are you ok?" He asks with concern on his face. "Yeah, the doctors say I'm healing well, I'll have to sit out of the upcoming game, but they are hopeful I can play the next one." I smile brightly at him. "That's good." He smiles softly. Ally looks at us and makes a kissy face. I stare at her as if saying 'STOP IT.'

                                       -

  It was practice time and I sat on the bench outside to support the team. "Alright!" Coach yells as he blows the whistle. He turns to the bench to see me sitting there. "Stilinski! What are you doing here?!" He yells across the field. "Here to support the team, sir!" I yell back. "Now that! That right there is a team player! Be more like Stilinski!" Coach yells as the team gathers around him.

  "A few announcements before we start! Due to the pinkeye going around, thank you Greenberg. We have a few people joining first line on a PROBATIONARY, let me repeat, PROBATIONARY basis. Rodriguez, Taylor, and Dellinger! Welcome to first line!" Coach shouts making the team cheer.

  "Next up, we are immediately switching to having co-captains! Congratulations Stilinski!" Coach yells. I look up in shock. The team turns to me and rushed over in celebration. "Go Stiles!" I hear a guy shout as they gently pat me being mindful of my injury. "Thanks guys!" I say with a giant grin. "Did you hear that?! I'm co-captain!" I yell as I slowly jog to Jackson. In my excitement I jump on him making him catch me. "I did hear." He chuckles as he twirls me around and gently sets me down. "You did good, princess." He whispers in my ear his lips touching the shell of my ear malign me shiver. "Thanks." I whisper.

  "But! Since she is out for the next week, we need an interim co-captain! That will go to McCall." Coach says making everyone groan. "Until! Until she heals then she's right back to being co-captain." Coach finishes. "Well, that didn't last long." I mutter as I see Scott's goofy grin. I roll my eyes before I hear Jackson growl under his breath. "Hey, it's ok. You heard Coach, I've just go to heal." I smile up at him. "You better heal fast." Jackson says with a smile. "I will, just for you." I smirk as he blushes softly.

  Practice goes by fast and the boys leave to the locker room. "Stiles, how's the back?" Coach asks as he approaches me. "It's getting better, I can help carry in equipment on my other shoulder just fine." I smile as I bend down to grab a bag of nets and balls. "Thanks kid." Coach smiles at me as he grabs the rest. "Of course coach." I smile. "Those two go in my office, the boys should be gone from the locker room so you can go in, I've got to take these to the women's locker room." Coach says as we enter the school. "You got it Coach." I smile at him before walking to the men's locker room.

  I walk to his office and am about to open the door when I see Scott and Lydia in there. "She doesn't even want to be friends." I hear Lydia say. "She doesn't?" Scott says brokenly. "Yes. If you ask me... Of course, nobody asks me... she made a big mistake. Ask me how I know that." Lydia orders. "How?" Scott asks. "Because I know you left Stiles to protect yourself. And that's all you can ever do." Lydia smiles. Tears enter my eyes. What the fuck?!

  Lydia slowly approaches Scott and kisses him. Scott wraps his arms around Lydia and kisses her back. "I need to find Jackson." I whisper. "You already did." Jackson says from behind me. I jump and he catches me. "Are you ok?" I ask softly. "Yeah, I-I was gonna break up with her... but I didn't think she'd cheat." He says as he frowns.

                                        -

  Allison had stayed back to wait with me so we could go to her house. Kate was teaching us how to shoot a taser gun. "Don't tell either of your dads, I have a feeling they'd both kill me." Kate says as Allison stands in position. "Now, what is our hapless victim's name?" Kate asked. "Mr. Bear." Allison answers.

  "You named your teddy bear Mr. Bear?" I ask raising my eyebrow. "I was five." Ally defends. "Alright, let's put this unimaginative named bear out of its misery." Kate smiles. Ally puts her finger on the trigger and presses it. "There we go! That's what I'm talking about!" Kate chuckled as the taser shoots out prongs and electrifies the bear.

  Allison and I went to a camping store to look at something for her compound bow. We walked toward a counter and I picked up a bow scope. I held it up and looked through it until I landed on a figure. I focus on who it is and see Jackson. "What are you doing here?" Jackson asks. "Oh, Ally needed something for her bow and I decided to tag along." I chuckle. "What about you?"

  "Getting a new helmet, for Danny. He's been complaining about needing one, so I thought I'd be a good friend and surprise him with one." Jackson smiles. "That's sweet." I smile at him. "You look like you could use someone to talk to."

  "Is it that obvious?" Jackson laughs. "Kinda, but I know what it's about." I shrug with a soft smile. "Hey, Ally! I'm gonna go with Jackson. He needs someone to talk to." I say as I rush over to her. "Ok, don't do anything I wouldn't do." She says as she looks through the arrows.

  Jackson took me to his porche and drove me to a secluded parking lot. "So, lay it on me." I say as I move sideways and bring my knee up to rest my head. "I knew I was done with the relationship, but she hurt me so much. She chose Scott! Scott McCall over me!" He bites out angrily.

  "Yeah, I know how that feels." I whisper thinking back to what she had said. "What she said was wrong, Stiles. Scott was in the wrong." Jackson says seeing me drifting off. "I know, just doesn't hurt less, I thought we were becoming friends. But... now... I-I don't know if I wanna be friends with someone who says that." I whisper. "You know, I'd choose you over Scott."

  "You would?" He whispers. "Yeah, every single time." I softly say. I could feel the pull of the moon, but with Jackson around I didn't feel the need to shift. "Thank you." Jackson says after a moment of silence. "For?" I ask. "This, everything." He huffs out. "You're welcome." I say grabbing his hand and squeezing it. Jackson drives me back to the store where Allison waited in her car. "Thank you too." I smile and lean over and kiss his cheek. He smiles goofily with a blush. "I don't know what I did but you're welcome." He says quietly.
