STRINGS AND SCISSORS - (TW/TO/TVD crossover) [2]

20) i love you

"You're my family. Besides, who better to spy on Marcel than the girl he so clearly loves?" Klaus questioned as he
sat on the coffee table in front of the four women, three of whom sat on the couch and Malia who had moved off the wall and was now standing behind the couch.

"You can tell me all his secrets, like how did he find us here? Huh, any idea about that, little sister?" Klaus questioned patronisingly causing Maddie to kick his leg warningly, yet another action he ignored. "How should I know why Marcel does what he does?" Rebekah wondered and then Maddie knew. She definitely had something to do with it.

"You think I don't know about your engineered run-ins all over the Quarter? I know you've had private chats with him! Just tell me what secrets he's confided to you. Is he plotting against me?" Klaus pushed and pushed before Maddie finally snapped. "Nik, I love you, but we've had enough goddamn accusations thrown at each other today. So swallow your own accusations or eat it off in the fucking quarter, I honestly couldn't give less of a fuck, just keep yourself in check." Maddie growled before her phone rang in her pocket.

The Petrova Hybrid glared at the man before taking off to the foyer where she answered the call. "Isaac, what's up?" Maddie questioned, hearing the werewolf clear his throat at the harsh tone. "Sorry, is it a bad time?" He questioned and Maddie sighed, shaking her head. "No, no, I'm sorry. Stiles knows." Maddie admitted and Isaac's eyebrows furrowed.

"Stiles knows what?" The werewolf questioned and Maddie sighed, opening her mouth to answer before she heard a door slam loudly with strong force. "Who the hell are you?" She heard Davina exclaim and then her heart stopped and she froze. "ALL THREE OF YOU KNEW AND NONE OF YOU SAID ANYTHING?!" She heard Stiles exclaimed angrily and she inhaled sharply, hanging up the phone before grabbing her coat.

"Ally, Mal, we gotta go." Maddie spoke, walking back into the room to see both of them sitting there in shock, the Mikaelsons nowhere in sight. Noticing the panicked look on the Petrova girl's face, the two jumped up.

"What's wrong?" Allison questioned and Maddie rubbed her forehead. "Davina just met a really pissed off Stiles who just ran into her room to interrogate Isaac and Lydia." Maddie explained and the two woman quickly nodded, grabbing their jackets and running out the door.

Stiles Stilinksi was angry. He didn't know he could feel such rage, but when Scott had accidentally let it leak that everyone in the pack had known, the lies and secrets had just boiled a temper and that temper was fuelling him to make a few decisions that he would otherwise regret. For instance, to slam a door open to interrogate his friends. If he could get past the teenage witch's barrier and launch himself at the blonde werewolf, he would have.

"You need to calm down!" Davina exclaimed to the human of whom she never met as she watched him angrily punched the barrier, hissing as he shook his hand in the air, as his rage ran slim, and instead was replaced by betrayal as he slid down the doorway. Scott was standing behind his best friend, watching Stiles breakdown with a solemn look.

"Not one of you were going to tell me?" Stiles questioned aggressively, his eyes filled with tears he didn't dare let spill before the group heard rushed, heavy footsteps of multiple people running towards the attic. Davina felt a shiver run down her spine at the sound, believing the witches had finally found her due to the accusation parade happening right outside her room.

But when Maddie ran around the corner, with Allison and Malia behind her, Davina swallowed the lump in her throat, letting out a breath she didn't even know she was holding, feeling a lot safer with the person she trusted more than anyone standing just a few feet away. "Is everyone okay? Wha- Stiles." Maddie breathed out as she looked at the boy she loved who was standing there with nothing but raw anger and sadness.
