"Where have you guys been?" Lydia asked when we approached the place they wanted to lock me up for the night. I'd told them again and again that I wouldn't shift tonight but they wouldn't listen.
Derek and I had just arrived after... a quick shower for obvious reasons. Lydia, Isaac and Stiles eyed me suspiciously.
"We worked out before we came here." I lied smoothly. Isaac and Stiles shrugged and got the chains. Lydia simply stared at them without lifting a finger.
It wasn't long before I was chained down again. Derek and Isaac wandered off to talk about something random while Lydia came to me with Stiles on her heels. Just when she'd reached me, she turned around and glared at Stiles.
"Uh I just thought that you two needed company." he answered while awkwardly waving his arms back and forth.
"We don't, thanks." Lydia replied and with the flutter of her eyelashes, Stiles wandered off with his head hung low.
"So," Lydia immediately began as she sat on a seat near me without even thinking about poor rejected Stiles. "Did anything happen?"
Oh no. I knew this look. That crazed for gossip Lydia look. "Anything like what? I swear I'm not gonna turn tonight." I rolled my eyes at her.
"You know that's not what I'm talking about." she shook her head "Liz you know you can't hide you having sex from me."
I felt the blood rushing to my ears and quickly glanced at Derek and the others to see if they'd heard her.
"How the fuck would you know that?" I whisper shouted back.
"Oh please," she said with a grin from ear to ear "Derek turned red like a tomato when you said 'worked out'."
"Dammit Derek." I muttered as I caught Derek looking in our direction.
"So how was he?" Lydia questioned.
"Lydia!" I said shocked and just a bit too loud. "You know I am not going to talk to you about that."
From my side I heard that Derek tried to get a new conversation going with Isaac and Stiles, who'd obviously gotten interested in our conversation.
"You did use a condom, right? Please tell me that you won't end up getting knocked up in your first try-"
"Oh my god, shut the fuck up. Of course we used condoms. We're not stupid. Now shut up about it already."
"So how did it happen-"
"Lydiaaa"
"Was he rough or does he like it gentle-"
"Oh my god stop."
"What does he look like down there-"
"Lydia godverdomme Martin! Hou je godvergeten tering kop dicht of ik sla hem dicht voor je! Lydia goddamn Martin! Shut your ungodly [curse word that doesn't translate into English] face or I'll shut it for you!" I shouted.
"Yeah my Dutch is a little rusty." she joked.
"I think you get what it means."
"Leave her be." Isaac and Derek stepped in "It's the full moon. Wouldn't want her to turn on you, right?"
Lydia hummed and got up with her eyes glued on Derek. "Guess you're right." she said and walked off. Derek eyed me suspiciously but I simply rolled my eyes.
"What'd she say?" Isaac asked before sitting in Lydia's spot.
"Nothing. She just kept buggin' me."
"What'd you say?"
I pouted my lips as I thought of a decent description "Some very colorful words."
Isaac laughed and leaned back in the chair. "It's weird." he muttered after a while. "It's so calm yet I can't seem to relax. It's like the calm before the storm or something."
I nodded. "I know what you mean. But hey, at least it's calm for now."
"Got a point there. So have you considered joining the lacrosse team yet?"
I laughed and shook my head "I don't think so. Team sports aren't really my thing."
"Ah come on." Isaac whined "I'm sure you'll do great. And you already know most of the team."
"I'm good."
"Pshh" Isaac huffed with a grin on his face "Suit yourself. It was your chance to see many toned shirtless guys."
I started laughing. "My dream." I answered sarcastically.
"So when are you coming back to school?"
"Hopefully next week. But I can't go back yet because of the whole suspicion around me and with the cops thinking I'm very sick."
"Well it's not like you're missing anything. In biology we're talking about starvation and the effects of it."
"Yeah I think that that won't be a problem on the test."
"It seems painful." Isaac muttered.
"You're wrong."
"What?"
"It's not painful at all. The first week is agony but after that you just stop looking for food. It's actually not a bad way to go. It doesn't hurt. You're just... Tired."
"Well this turned morbid." Isaac joked.
"Blame biology."
It became silent for a few minutes. Both caught in our own thoughts.
"How'd you do it?" Isaac asked me out of the blue.
"How did I do what?"
"Well... When my dad passed away, I was suspect number one. Got locked in a holding cell and everything. How did you manage to get back to America so fast after he died? Weren't you a suspect?" He asked with a furrowed brow.
"Of course I was a suspect. First one they went to. It's just that the people I worked for... they're pretty influential."
"So what? They bought you out?"
"Nah. That would mean that I had to stay in the Netherlands for possible future questioning. No, they barged in and gave the cops security footage of me being nowhere near the crime scene when it happened. Plus a statement that I was with them." Isaac nodded slightly while I silently kicked the chair next to me. "Solid proof that I was innocent."
"I left the day before his funeral." I whispered.
Isaac looked up with prying eyes. Unsure of what he thought of it, I stared back at him. "You didn't attend your dad's funeral?" he asked accusingly.
I simply shook my head.
"Well I guess I can understand why you'd choose that... Even though I think you should've gone anyway-"
"He didn't deserve it."
"He's still your father."
"Was." I corrected. Isaac glared at me. "And only by blood."
"You didn't attend your dad's funeral?" Stiles asked as he joined our conversation.
"Are you also gonna judge me for it?" I groaned. "You guys know what he did to me and you're telling me that I should've gone to a service in honor of his memory? Should I also have gone up stage and give a great speech on how much he meant to me?" Stiles glanced at Isaac with his heart beating faster with every word I spat. "And for fucks sake I'm not gonna turn."
"Her heartbeat is still steady." Isaac commented more to Stiles than to me. I rolled my eyes.
"You two should get girlfriends. Something to keep your mind off supernatural things." I began to piss them off.
"What?" they replied with confusion all over their faces. I tried my best to keep my face as straight as possible even though their faces were priceless.
"Oh! Even better! You two could get together. Hmm, yup! I ship it." I said with a serious nod.
"Dafuq?" Isaac commented "There's no way in hell that I'll end up with Stiles."
"What?" Stiles said offended and turned to Isaac "Am I not pretty enough for you?"
I started laughing.
So I don't know how I managed to do it but I've uploaded Liz's first full moon on a full moon... and her "last" full moon (this one) on a full moon.
