True Survival || Teen Wolf

3 - Twenty-five

"Who were you texting?" Allison asked, I glanced up at her and hesitated a bit before answering,

"Isaac..." I said which was half true, the other half being Derek who hasn't spoken to me in months...

"When did you two become so close?" Allison asked me, I was about to answer but I was cut off,

"Right after he left Beacon Hills for the summer, and ditched me here... alone," Lydia sassed, I glared at the redhead through the rear view mirror, only for her to ignore me, Allison laughed at that,

"Well, She's not wrong," I told her, "but I didn't ditch you, my aunt had business stuff to do and she thought it would be good for me to go with her,"

"Yes, and I had to spend four months without both of my best friends," Lydia retorted, "now, lets get back to the task at hand please,"

"You mean the triple date?" Allison asked rhetorically,

"It is not a triple date. It is a group thing," Lydia said to her, "Plus one of the has a gay cousin, perfect for you Leo,"

"Gonna just ignore that comment," I muttered as I look out the window,

"Do they know it's a group thing? 'Cause I told you that I'm not ready to get back out there," Allison asked her,

"You were in France and didn't do any dating for four months?" Lydia asked her kind of aggressively,

"Did you? I mean, after..." Allison started to say,

"Do not say his name," Lydia said cutting her off,

"Jackson," I chimed in from the back seat,

"I just said..." Lydia whined and I started to laugh,

"I like to stir the pot," I said with chuckle, Allison looked back at me with smile, but but her lips so she wouldn't laugh,

"Is he okay? I mean, did everything work out?" Allison asked us,

"Well, the doctors looked like total idiots when he turned up alive, but everyone got over it. And yes, Derek taught him the werewolf 101, like how not to randomly kill people during a full moon," Lydia explained to her, and Allison smiled at her remarks,

"And he apologised to me, which felt really surreal, but I think he's okay," I said to her solemnly,

I hadn't completely forgiven the narcissist for everything he did to me, but for what I could forgive, I did. I spent two years hating him, and now, I'm just happy he's alive.

Call it bad character development... or call it me acting out of character, but I'm refusing to hold grudges anymore. That shit is only going to hurt me and not them.

"So then you've talked to him?" Allison asked again,

"Uh, not since he left for London," Lydia answered,

"You mean since he dad moved him to London," Allison corrected her,

"Whatever, he left. And seriously, an American werewolf in London? Like, that's not gonna be a disaster," Lydia sassed,

"I told him if he's having any problems to just call me or Derek," I said to Lydia and I knew she rolled her eyes, "I'll be fine,"

"So you're totally over him?" Allison nodded then asked,

"Would I be going on a triple date if I wasn't?" Lydia asked rhetorically but slipped up, Allison and I started to laugh at her and she sighed, "Yes, it is a double date. It's not an orgy. You'll live,"
