"I like people with depth, I like people with emotion, I like people with a strong mind, an interesting mind, a twisted mind, and also someone that can make me smile."

"Your voicemails are taking away half of my life, seriously now," Freddie continued to argue with me.

"Freddie, when I tell something, then I tell, I don't look at the time," I reasoned bored because we were in the school's library.

Masilya didn't even listen to us, she just watched Stiles and swarmed to herself.

Wow, thanks for helping me, favorite cousin.

I rolled my eyes and then continued to search for what I was looking for. I was looking for a Californian version of the "The Beast of Gévaudan" story.

Yes, there are many versions. A version that you can tell the children, as well as a counterfeit version. Then there is the version my family knows.

You're thinking, "Why does she know so much about the supernatural?"

Well, my family is supernatural.

My cousin, Masilya, and I are witches as well as the rest of our family.

Of course we aren't those bad witches that you can watch on TV or anywhere else, we are the once who help. As the hunters have a code, we have a similar one.

"We Protect Those Who Can not Protect Themselves."

Since I can think, we live from this code. Of course we also have a normal life.

"Damn it, I need another book," I said annoyed and got up to get another one.

While searching, I focused on finding that book. Until someone or rather two people came to me.

I looked at both confused and let my fingers from the books. Not that anyone noticed what I'm searching for, they would think I'm crazy.

"Can I help you?" I asked the two girls in front of me.

You could tell, Lydia had no idea why she's here, but Alison came for a reason.

"yesterday, a woman came to school, she asked for you," Alison told me and looked at me, waiting for an answer.

Ehm ... great?

Since when does someone ask for me?

Should I give Alison an answer now?

"I don't know, who you talking about, Alison, no one has contacted me," I told her, lifting my shoulder once.

"It was a little brown-skinned woman with black hair," Alison began to describe, but then it rang for the next school lesson.

"Ehm .. I'm sorry, I don't know the person", I apologized and then went back to Masilya and Freddie to take my backpack.

I had biology now, my favorite subject, without the two, because Freddie voted out of biology because she couldn't understand a thing, and Masilya knew from the beginning that she couldn't do it.

I put my bag next to me and sat down in the classroom, hopefully I got a good partner.

My last three partners understood next to nothing. What I didn't understand, biology is so easy to understand ...

Deep in my thoughts, I didn't realize that my new partner sat down beside me.

He can't be serious, can he?

It was Aiden.

Aiden, the guy who wanted to drive me home a few days ago, Aiden.

"Hey," he greeted me with a grin and unpacked his backpack.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked him confused, but he tried to pay attention to the lesson because he was late.

"I like biology," Aiden answered my question with a grin, then looked ahead.

I turned back to the blackboard until I noticed Stiles' gaze.

I looked at him confused and annoyed at the same time. He only, went on and looked back and forth between Aiden and me.

God, I want to throw something at him.

My aggression consists of stiles' existence.

I looked at him with a 'look elsewhere or things are going to fly around' look. Luckily he looked away, but spoke to Scott, who then let his eyes fly to us.

Oh my god, help.

I looked away and put up a book to hide behind because I blushed.

Is it always so warm in the classroom?

Aiden looked at me confused, as if I had said something stupid.

Okay, quickly Taryna, distract.

"I'll get the right things for the project," I told him and got up to go to the shelf.

And of course, Stiles had to get up at the same time as I did.

Urgh ...

I'll kill him someday ...

"Why did Aiden sit next to you?" Stiles asked me directly without warning.

What did I say?

He is annoying.

I took a deep breath and smiled at him.

"Fuck off, Stiles," I replied grinning at his question and went back to my seat with the right supplies.

"Alright?", Aiden asked me with his "Bad Boy" grin, like the one he had on a few days ago.

"Everything's fine," I answered his question, dragging the E in 'everything' long and looking straight at him, 'you have your 'bad boy' grin on again".

"I'm not a bad boy and I don't have an 'bad boy' grin on," Aiden said, still grinning.

I stopped my construction of the project and looked at him again, I hope, he doesn't think that I'm going to believe him...

"Well, that's what a bad boy would say, so ... you're a bad boy," I told him, as if he was a little child.

I noticed the others' eyes on me and Aiden, but continued as if nothing was happening.

After working with Aiden for two hours straight, we became good friends. He wasn't that bad either.

He also often made me laugh and told me about his twin brother, Ethan.

I haven't really met Ethan, yet. After all, I only see him with Danny. Which means that he likes guys.

I've known Danny for a long time and know what ex-boyfriends he had. He deserves better, maybe Ethan.

As the lesson came to an end, I packed my bag and went out. Arriving at my locker, I packed my biology books into it because we didn't got homework.

Masilya and Freddie were still in class, so I slowly put my things away. After I finished, I forced myself to shut my locker. Right behind my locker door stood Scott, Stiles and Isaac side by side.

Sliding into the dms like ...

Sorry, I had to.

Startled, I took a step back and looked at all three confused.

"Ehm ... is something wrong?", I asked all three of them, after none of them said anything.

"Not really, everything's alright, it's just...," Scott started to reply, but couldn't get the question out that he wanted to ask.

Who can be angry with him?

He looked way to cute for this world...

"To what did you invite Aiden for?" Isaac and Stiles asked at the same time.

How do they know it? They sit in the front and I sit in the back.

I don't speak that loud...

"Um .. to a house party my cousin, Iliana, is throwing," I told them a bit confused.

"Can we come?" Scott asked me with his sweet Puppy Face.

I won't say no and Iliana is definitely not gonna say no to him.

Damned for his kind!

But he is cute ...

Taryna, first answer, then melt away!

"Yeah, sure, come to my house this friday. And you can ask Lydia and Alison too," I answered smiling.

Don't show them, how nervous you are in his presence.

After I said that, I just went to the cafeteria.

Wow, does that always feel like talking to a lot of people?

That is exhausting.

         ☆ Midnight. ☆

I got out of my car and ran to the front door of the veterinary clinic. It was already 11 o'clock in the evening, but nevertheless I hoped Deaton is still there or somebody else.

"Taryna?" Scott came out and looked at me worriedly.

"Hey, I need help with my dog, he's hurt and he's scared, but he doesn't let me touch him, so I drove here," I tried to tell him under one breath, starting to shiver from the cold.

Who goes out with only a T-shirt in the rain?

Of course only me.

"Hey, calm down, Taryna, where is he?" He asked me carefully.

Out of breath I pointed to my car. It was still raining heavily, so we quickly went to my car, where I showed him my husky, who was injured in the trunk.

Scott wanted to touch him, but I stopped him because he barked at him.

"Don't worry," Scott whispered dearly and walked closer to my husky.

It's been almost an hour and a half since I've drove to the animal clinic. Scott gave me a dry shirt because my top is completely wet and smeared with blood.

"Please don't laugh," I warned him with a grin.

"I'm not, I promise," Scott promised with a grin, I recognised  that he wanted to laugh, but really tries not to.

"His name is Hot Dog and my other dog's name is Hamburger," I told him, glancing at Hot Dog, who was lying in a corner asleep, Scott found out he had broken his leg and gave him a sweet little bandage, done around his right leg.

"Let me guess, you chose the name when you were little?" Scott asked me, just laughing.

"Yes and hungry", I answered his question with a grin.

He made a soft laugh, which is okay for me.

It made my heart stop for a moment.

After all, I still laugh about it when I think about it.

I have always been funny.

Scott smiled, but continued patching me up. He was helping me because Hot Dog bit me twice in fear.

"So ... you and Aiden?" Scott asked, I looked at him with a surprised face.

He didn't just asked me this question, did he?
