Unexpected

FIFTY-TWO

"He needs me at his house now. Something about Liam," my tears stopped at that. What's going on with the kid? I thought he was at the hospital. "Are you gonna come?" I nodded, wiping at my eyes and then pulling my shirt down. 

Malia helped me up from my bed, thankfully. "I'm gonna stay here. I still need to study." I gave her a smile, "I'll help you study this weekend, promise." She just nodded and then waved Stiles and I off as we made our way to the jeep.

Scott was quick to answer his door, leading us into the house quickly while he and Stiles threw themselves into a conversation. "Like I said, I told my dad everything I could." Scott was frantic, "but you didn't tell him about Liam?"

Stiles sighed, "you barely told me about Liam. What did you do with him anyways?" I followed the boys through the house, my hand on the base of my belly as we walked. "He's upstairs." I frowned at that, "what's he doing upstairs? Shouldn't he be getting an x-ray?"

Scott sent me a look that said he messed up. Uh oh. "He's.... lying down." The uncertainty of his words made me cock a brow. I shared a look with Stiles and then sighed. "What's he really doing, Scott?" I crossed my arms, looking up at him. 

He scratched the back of his neck and a narrowed my eyes. "I'll just show you." Stiles and I followed Scott into his bathroom, which confused me. Where was Liam? Scott gave me a small smile before pulling back the shower curtain. 

My eyes widened as I saw Liam in the tub. He was duct taped and completely immobilized. Liam began letting out muffled cries and his wide eyes found mine. I narrowed my gaze at Scott, my eyes set in a glare as Stiles closed the shower curtain with a sigh. 

Great. My boyfriend kidnapped a kid. A fifteen-year-old boy who is going to be reported missing sooner or later. And now, he's made Stiles and I guilty by association. I followed the boys back into the room and stood in front of them as they sat on the bed. 

"You kidnapped Liam?" I asked, my voice low and quiet. I could tell by the look on Scott's face that he was worried about my reaction to this. Stiles sighed, "and bit him." My eyes widened and Scott sent Stiles a look. "You bit him!?"

Scott nodded, "yeah..." I ran my hand through my hair and sighed. "Why would you bring him here?" Stiles asked. Scott looked to him, "I panicked." I rolled my eyes, "obviously." Stiles looked slightly amused with the situation but, also annoyed and unsure where they go from here. 

"This isn't goign to end with us burying the pieces of his body out in the desert is it?" Stiles asked and I could hear Liam's muffled screams. My glare deepened and I snapped. "NO! We are not killing a child! You're going to fix this. Now, go grab the boy...." When no one moved I growled out, "now." 

The boys stood up and began moving to the bathroom, but stopped when I went to leave the room. "Wait, where are you going?" Scott asked and I huffed. "I'm not the one who kidnapped Liam. So, I'm gonna go order a pizza." 

And with that, I spun on my heels and made my way downstairs to find the landline. I walked into the living room and found the phone, a smile on my face as I grabbed it and the phone book, looking up the number before calling. 

I ordered an XL pepperoni pizza, I figure the boys and Liam might be hungry too. I made my way back up the stairs to check on the boys, only to find Liam now tied to a chair, crying while Scott and Stiles kneeled in front of him, bickering. 

"You're not going to die." Scott reassured and my eyes widened when Stiles spoke up, "probably not." Scott sighed, "Stop it." Stiles nodded, "okay, possibly not." I let out a groan, gaining the attention of all the boys.
