I Don't Like You...... I Love You (Scott/Stiles Fan Fic)

Chapter 7

I sat at the counter beside Danny as I watched the front door as we both waited for Scott to arrive at the bowling alley.  He was already 10 minutes late, but at the same time I'm not that surprised.  Scott has never been on time for anything in his life.

"Stiles just relax" Danny mumbled from beside me and I turned to face him.

"Who says I'm nervous" I quizzed with a raised eyebrow and he just motioned to my hand with his eyes.  I slid my eyes to the side just to find my hand shaking as I gripped my Pepsi.  I shot a hand out grabbing my shaking one in an attempt to calm down.

"Hey guys" came Scott's voice from behind and I turned around just in time to see Kira trailing behind him "I hope you guys don't mind, but I invited Kira along seeing as how she's new and everything."  I felt myself automatically shoot daggers at Kira with my eyes before I realized how obvious I was being and looked away.  Of course Scott had to drag his new girlfriend along.  I groaned internally.

"Oh no, that's completely fine" Danny smiled, elbowing me hard in the ribs causing me to wince and look back up at Scott and Kira.

"That's right" I stated through clenched teeth partly from pain and partly from annoyance "Kira's welcome to hang with us whenever she wants."  I looked over Kira taking in her processing gaze as if she were deep in thought.

"Well what are we waiting for then" Scott shrugged "let's get this party started."  With that he spun toward the counter and ordered shoes for him and Kira which did nothing to help my upset state.  I quickly ordered my shoes and took a seat by the alley to pull my shoes on.  I just scowled at the ground when I noticed Kira pull Scott to the side and start whispering.

"It's like I don't even exist" I grumbled to myself as I shot up from my seat on the ground.

"Now Stiles don't go doing that" Danny scolded as he walked up to me.

"Doing what?" I cried exasperatedly.

"Look, do you really think getting annoyed and upset is going to help you any?" Danny pointed out and I just sighed as my shoulders sank.  He's right, but I just can't help it.  It's not that I hate Kira, it's just the idea of Kira with Scott.  Scott should be with me.  God I'm in way too deep.

"Hey" Scott offered as he walked up and I immediately straightened my posture at his presence.

"Hey" I greeted, a smile automatically making it's way onto my face.  I watched as he leaned down to grab a ball off the rack and I couldn't help but steal a small glance at his butt as his jeans tightened for his crouch.

"You bowl a 12 pounder right?" Scott quizzed as he sorted through the balls and I couldn't help but blush at the fact that he knew exactly what ball I used.  Just calm down Stiles, you've been bowling with him enough for him to remember, it means nothing.

"Yup" I replied as I took a deep breath and Scott stood back up holding two balls.  He handed me the blue ball that weighed a few pounds less than his 18 pounder.

"Hey Scott, you wouldn't mind grabbing me a ball, would you?" Kira chanted from over at our lane "I use the 12 pound ball."

"Sure thing" Scott called back and I couldn't help the fit of jealousy that rolled over me as I slumped my shoulders and crossed my arms.  Kira began laughing and I couldn't shake the feeling that she was laughing at me.  With a huff I walked back over to the bowling lane.

"Stupid no good emotions" I grumbled to myself as I plopped down in my seat.

"Alright, we need teams" Danny announced.

"Okay, I guess I'll team with Sc-" I started but Kira was quick to cut me off.

"I'll be with Scott" Kira cheered and I turned to face her with wide eyes.  There's no way Kira is teaming with Scott.  I always team with Scott when we go bowling.

"Okay, sure" Scott shrugged and I had to fight to keep my jaw from dropping.  Did he seriously just decide to be on Kira's team?  What happened to team Sciles??

"Scott?!" I blurted without thinking and immediately regretted it.  That sounded so pathetic.  Why would I care whether Scott is on my team or not, unless I liked him.  I totally just blew it.

"Stiles dude, it's one game.  I just figured you'd be fine bowling on Danny's team" Scott offered with an almost guilty tone which made me feel stupider.

"I- yeah, your right.  I'm fine bowling with Danny" I shrugged and Scott's face fell slightly.

"You know we can bowl together if you want" Scott offered but I just brushed it off.

"It's fine dude, besides, I'm sure you'll need all the help you can get to win this" I stated trying to brighten not only my mood, but the others as well.

"Yeah, because god knows I wouldn't get that help from you" Scott smirked and my jaw dropped.

"Oh you're on" I grinned as I stepped up to the lane listening to Scott's comforting laugh.  Here goes nothing.....

***

"AND BOOM, WE WON!" Scott cheered as he climbed up on the chairs pumping his fist as he scored his last strike in the final frame.

"Yeah yeah" I chuckled as watched him celebrate.  It honestly made me happy just seeing him so happy, which only scared me the slightest bit.

"Dude I honestly thought you were going to win because you were ahead for so long" Scott offered as he leaped from the chair and landed with ease on the ground.

"Well I wasn't going to say it, but you're right.  I actually let you win" I joked with a big grin and Scott just shook his head as he rolled his eyes.

"Oh I'm sure" Scott smirked as we all joined in laughing.

"Scott you were so great, you're practically the reason we one with all of my open frames" Kira praised as she took her place next to Scott's side and I fought the frown that was pulling at me lips.  As close as Scott and I were, we'd never be that close, the close I wanted to be.

"I'm gonna go get something to snack on" I sighed as I turned to head to the counter.

"Hold up, I'll come with you" Scott chanted as he ran up beside me.

"Are you sure you don't want to stay back and hang with Kira" I grumbled and I couldn't help the bitterness that shown through in my words and Scott seemed slightly taken aback.

"Stiles what's wrong dude?" Scott quizzed concerned at my sudden bitterness.

"Oh nothing's wrong Scott" I scoffed "everything is just peachy."  I watched from the corner of my eye as Scott's eyes formed slits and his lips parted slightly in confusion.  Great, I've really done it now.  I had to know my emotions would wreck this evening somehow.

"Stiles what the hell man, what do you have against Kira?" Scott demanded.

"Oh I have nothing against Kira, Scott" I offered "Kira's great, she's honestly perfect."

"Then what the hell is your problem?"  Scott questioned as he grabbed my arm, stopping me and turning me around.

"The problem is that I can't hate her.  She's literally the example of perfection" I snapped "I keep thinking there has to be some flaw about her but I can't find anything."

"And how is that a bad thing?" Scott cried out in confusion.

"Because you're with her" I cried as I threw my arms in the air.

"And what do you care if I'm dating her or not?" Scott asked a bit aggravated and curious.

"Because I fucking love you!"
