"I know what happened to Donovan" Theo said. "I know everything"
I raised my eyebrows at the two boys. "Would you care to enlighten me?"
Stiles let go of my hand and launched forwards, grabbing Theo by the shirt and pushing him backwards until he hit the railings.
"Stiles!" I exclaimed, running after the two boys.
"You don't know anything" Stiles snapped.
Theo grabbed Stiles' jacket and spun them around, pressing Stiles against the railings.
"Hey! Both of you stop it!" I yelled.
"I was there! I was at the library!" Theo yelled. "Malia found the book. She was texting us to see where you were. She said she left you at the library. I told her I was close. When I got there, I heard the scaffolding come down"
"You saw him?" Stiles asked.
"Just the body"
I stared at the two of them. "Body?"
Stiles reluctantly let go of his grip on Theo.
"I watched you come out. I was gonna say something but I saw the cop car" Theo explained. "The body was gone. I don't know who took him. I only saw what you saw and I didn't say anything because you didn't"
I groaned in frustration. "Can someone please tell me what happened!"
The boys both turned to me.
"Stiles?" I said quietly. "Explain. Please?"
Theo opened his mouth to speak.
"Shut up!" I snapped before turning back to my friend.
"I um- something happened between me and Donovan" he said, not meeting my eyes.
"You killed him?" I asked unsurely.
Stiles nodded slowly and I sighed, running my hand through my hair.
"Okay, okay" I mumbled. "Oh my god"
"Kara-" Theo touched my shoulder.
In a moment of anger, and stupidity, I swung my fist around, connecting it with Theo's face.
"Fuck!" I yelled out in pain, clutching my hand.
Never punching a werewolf again.
"Don't ever touch my friend again, okay!" I snapped, grabbing an amused looking Stiles by the arm. "Come on. We're leaving"
As we walked to the door, I heard the sirens blaring in the distance and Stiles paused.
"That's not an ambulance is it?" Theo asked.
Stiles shook his head and headed back over to the chimera's body.
"We should get out of here" Theo said.
"We can't just leave him" Stiles protested.
"Fine. Alright let's take him" I frowned at Theo's suggestion. "Someone's stealing the bodies anyway, right? Here's our chance to find out who" he said as Stiles and I looked down at the body again. "Come on, we gotta do something"
"You killed him" I said.
"In self defence"
I tilted my head to the side with my eyebrows raised.
"He was gonna kill all three of us" Theo defended. "If we stay we're either gonna have to tell the truth or we need a pretty convincing story. It's your choice" he looked at Stiles. "I'm not going to ask you to lie to your dad"
"Don't worry" he said. "I've had plenty of practice"

"Do you know him?" Theo asked Scott once we showed him the body.
"His names Josh. He's a junior"
Stiles pulled the sheet back over Josh's body.
"Which one did it? The one with the cane?"
Stiles looked at Theo.
"Yeah" he answered.
"What do we do with him?" I questioned.
"We can't just set the alarm and leave, that's how Tracy disappeared" Stiles pointed out. "Someone gotta stay here with him"
"I would offer" I spoke up. "But I'd rather I had some backup considering I'm, you know, human"
Theo looked over at me. "I'll do it"
Great.
"Both of you?" Scott asked.
Theo shrugged. "Why not. It's not like I had a big Saturday night planned" he shot me a grin.
I rolled my eyes.
Scott's phone buzzed and he frowned as he read the text.
"What is it?" Stiles asked.
"Another one. Another chimera"

I sighed and leant back against the wall.
"Why did you offer to stay with me?" I asked curiously.
"To keep you safe"
I rolled my eyes. "That's bullshit"
He turned away from me, slamming his hand on the table.
"Why don't you trust me!"
I stared at him, taken aback by his sudden outburst. "Why should I trust you? Why should I trust anyone right now?"
"I thought we had something!"
I scoffed. "Did you not get the message after I punched you"
"You confuse me"
"Thank you, that's a compliment that every girl wants to hear"
"You see, that's the problem!" He stepped away from the table and closer to me. "One minute you're punching me in the face and telling me how much you hate me. The next we're kissing and you're expecting me to compliment you?"
I opened my mouth to speak but I couldn't string a sentence together.
"What? You don't know what to say now. Because I'm right? Because you know that you're giving me weird mixed signals? We all know your true feelings, you're just too scared to admit them"
I stepped closer to him. "Shut up"
"Make me"
Without thinking, I moved forwards, pulling him closer to me until our lips touched.
His hands squeezed my hips, bringing my body closer to his.
Everything I'd felt - the lack of trust, the suspicion, it all melted into a different feeling; one I couldn't explain.
It was different to our first kiss. My natural instincts weren't kicking in to tell me it was wrong. In fact, my mind seemed to be on side with my body, telling me that it was right.
Our surroundings seemed to fade away as my brain basically shut down.
My legs were either side of his waist as he lifted me on to the counter. Theo leant forwards, deepening the kiss. I placed my hands down firmly either side of me so that I didn't fall backwards.
He placed one last kiss on my mouth before pulling away with a smile. I sat in a state of confusion for a moment but before I knew it, his lips were on my neck. I bit down on my lip, trying to stop any possible moans from escaping. His hand slowly slid underneath my shirt and I knew that this shouldn't be happening. But the feeling was amazing, it felt so right. Yet at the same time, it felt so wrong.
"Theo" I moaned unintentionally, actually meaning to speak.
He pulled away, a grin playing at his lips.
"What?" He asked, his voice lower than usual.
"Fuck it, nevermind"
I pulled him into another kiss, mentally slapping myself for being so weak.
I ran my fingers through Theo's hair as his hands resumed their place underneath my shirt. However, this time I didn't stop him as he succeeded in pulling it over my head.
I barely even gave him chance to stare because I was already trailing my hands underneath his shirt and removing it.
I paused for a moment, completely breathless.
The sensible side of my brain was kicking in again and telling me to stop right now but- oh god his body.
He leant in to kiss me again but I pushed him back.
"I can't- I'm sorry. This can't happen. This shouldn't have happened" I slid off the table and picked up my shirt, throwing back on.
"Did I do something?"
"No, no. It's just- I'm not. I need some air"
"Kara!" He yelled after me.
I ignored him and stepped outside and into the cool breeze.
"Idiot" I mumbled to myself as I sat down against the wall.
What the holy hell did I just do?

A/N
I have no words
like honestly I didn't know whether or not to post this chapter because I've rewritten it so many times but here we are
A lot of you asked if I could do longer chapters and that works a little better for me too but it just means I won't be updating every day :)
Thank you for 80k 💜💜
