Liam.

I drove up to Derek's loft and his car was parked in the driveway (which was really just a path where the leaves weren't).

I got out of my car and shut the door behind me, then walked up to the door. I almost knocked, it's been a while since I've been here. Did I even belong anymore? It's been several months. Scott did say they need all the help they could get, and if Peter is welcomed to help, I guess I should be too.

I opened up the door and walked down the hallway, then opened the sliding door that creaked as it moved across the track.

Derek and Scott were hunching over a piece of paper. They both turned to face me when they heard the door.

"What'd you say to get him to come?" Derek asked Scott.

"Liam, you're here," Scott said to me, ignoring what Derek said.

I nodded and walked down the ramp.

"Scott told me you guys need my help, and we are a pack, so I came to help. Something about a Chimera, yeah?" I asked. They both nodded.

"So what exactly are they?" I asked no one specifically.

"There's these doctors. They should be easy to take down but the things the doctors makes aren't. They take teenagers and make them into creatures. They're called Chimeras. They can be anything the doctors want them to be, and they're not considered supernatural. Just science experiments," Scott said.

I blinked.

"That was a lot to take in," I mumbled. Since they're wolves they both obviously heard.

"Sorry," Scott said. I nodded.

I walked down over to them since I kept my distance at first.

"A few of the Chimeras go to Beacon Hills. Do you know a girl named Hayden?" Scott asked.

Thoughts of Hayden and all she's done to me since the sixth grade flashed into my head.

"I've heard of her," I say. Technically I wasn't lying, I just wasn't telling the entire story. It's just a small detail I'm leaving out, so it doesn't really matter, anyways.

"Do know what she looks like? If you were to see her outside of school would you know who she is?" Derek asked.

"Yeah, for sure," I said. They both nodded.

"Then are you willing to help us?" Scott asked.

"How are they killed?" I asked, ignoring the question.

"Apparently it's a silver bullet to the heart. Kinda cliche, but it's worth a shot," Derek answered.

"Tell him the other theory of them," Scott said to Derek.

"Oh, right. Uh- there's also a theory that they can't be killed at all, and the bullet to the heart is a bunch of bull crap," Derek said.

"How is that possible? Like, immortal?" I asked. Scott nodded.

"And every pack has an alpha.." Derek said.

"The leader is a senior at Beacon Hills," Scott said.

My eyes got wide.

"Who is it?" I asked.

"We think it's that new kid, Theo," he said.

"It would make since, I mean he comes this year and keeps to himself for the most part," I said. They nodded.

"Alright, well we were here for a while before you got here so I think we've done enough for today. Feel free to stop by again, it was good seeing you," Scott said.

"I can say the same thing," Derek said.

I nodded.

"Yeah, I'll be back."

"Can we go get food?" I asked Brett. He was working on math homework and I was sitting on the bed scrolling through a food Instagram account.

"Where do you want to go?" He said, actually looking up from his homework.

"Can we go to that hamburger place just north of Main Street?" I asked.

Brett got up.

"That sounds good. Come on, let's go," he said. I got up from the bed and he took my hand and we walked outside and into the car.

"I'm sorry I've been so busy," Brett said.

"Hey, it's alright. I get you want good grades," I said. He nodded.

"Good grades, then I can get a job over the summer and take you somewhere for a vacation of our own," he said as he squeezed my hand, driving with his other.

"That sounds nice," I said.

I looked at the time.

"Can we get back by nine?" I asked. Brett nodded. We'd have two hours to eat, which was plenty of time for us.

We pulled up to the restaurant and parked, then walked inside.

We sat ourselves in a booth and looked through the menu.

A few minutes later a guy came over to get our orders.

"Could I have the regular hamburger with bacon, nothing else," I asked.

He wrote it down and turned to Brett.

"I'll just have an original hamburger without the onions," he said. The boy nodded and turned the other way.

"Only a month left of school," Brett said.

I smiled.

"I want to spend the entire summer with you," I said.

He nodded in agreement.

"I could say the same thing."

Brett sipped the water that was on the table.

"I've been thinking about college," Brett said.

"Brett, that's not for a few years still," I said. He nodded.

"I know, but I just really want to get in a good one, you know? Brett said.

"Yeah, I guess," I answered.

After a few minutes the boy came back over and out our food in front of us. I thanked him before he walked away, and we began to eat it up.

"But as of right now, I want to get a job at the coffee shop downtown," Brett said.

"I'll gladly visit you while you're on the clock," I said, causing Brett to laugh.

"I wouldn't mind that," he said, grinning.

Brett got a call from Satomi.

"Hello?" He answered.

"I'm out with Liam right now, actually."

He nodded.

"Yeah,"

"I'll be home tomorrow, promise."

"Alright Satomi, I gotta go," Brett said and he hung up.

"What was that about?" I asked him.

He shook his head.

"Nothing important," Brett assured and I nodded, trying to forget about it and assuming it was, in fact, nothing.
