"Everyone."

Odette stood next to Scott in his room looking at his own version of a crime board making her hum. "What do you think?" Scott asked and Odette tilted her head slightly and pursed her lips, "It's... good." She said slowly making him gave her an exasperated look, "You do know I can hear your heart best right?" He asked and she smiled sheepishly.

She glanced down and nodded to his arm, "You have a string stuck to your sleeve." She said making him look down to see red yarn from the board stuck to his jacket. He pulled his arm back and the sound of papers falling made hin close his eyes and sigh while Odette started laughing quietly.

About half of the stuff on the board had fallen off making him sigh in frustration and pull the yarn off before looking over at Odette. "I'll help you pick it up." She said and he smiled at her before then both crouched down and started picking the papers and push pins up.

It was quiet for a few seconds until Scott sighed and looked up at her, "I'm sorry. For the other day. I should have listened to you." He said and she sighed softly. "I'm not the one you should be apologizing to, you should be talking to Stiles." She said and he nodded.

"I know, but I'm pretty sure he wants nothing to do with me. Hell, I'm surprised you're even talking to. You you really pissed." He said and she nodded, "Well, yes but- I'm not one to hold grudges. I recognize people make mistakes, even really stupid ones." She said, giving him a pointed look. "Also, I'm not apologizing for anything I said that night." She said and he chuckled and nodded, "I don't expect you to." He said then sighed softly again.

"You know I dont hate you for your eye color, right? I know what it's like to lose control." He said and she nodded slightly, "Then give that same energy to Stiles."

"Don't break it like the one you broke in sophomore year." Odette said as she and Stiles stood in front of a vending machine in the hospital. "You know, I'm starting to regret telling you some things." He said, giving her an exasperated look making her smile at him.

He went to put some money into the machine when a couple guys walked past with a body in a black bag on a gurney. "That's probably the tech guy from the relay station." Odette said making Stiles spin around to look at her, "I'm sorry what?" He asked and her eyes widened.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. Parrish called me and Scott earlier and we went to go meet him at the relay station. Deputy Clark found a tech guy dying inside and along with the dude was a beast of a Chimera. The surveillance cameras caught it too." Blake said and Stiles squinted at her.

"Parrish called you about a murder and you didn't tell me?" He asked incredulously and she pursed her lips and shook her head, "No..." She lied slowly making him scoff.

"Unbelievable. What kind of girlfriend are you? Honestly, I thought you knew better." He said as he started walking away making her chuckle and quickly follow him. "I assumed you didn't want to leave your dad." She said and he slightly pursed his lips and squinted at her, "Well, yes but I'm still mad at you." He said and she raised her eyebrows.

"Really." She asked and he just stared at her before groaning slightly, "Okay fine, I can't stay mad at you. Happy?" He asked and she hummed and nodded.

"Is that my laptop?" Stilinski asks, looking over at Stiles who was typing on a laptop. Odette was sitting next to him, her feet in his lap as the laptop sat on top of them. "Yup." Stiles said making Stilinski raise his eyebrows, "Do you have my passwords?" He said.
