Pulling up to Beacon Hills Preserve, a dreadful ache settled in Aires chest. How she always managed to get dragged into the boys antics she didn't know. Time and time again over the summer she had been reckless,

Illegally driving Stiles jeep with no license, lying about staying around Scott's and then sneaking off to LA, too many house parties with Lydia...

Trouble had a way of finding her over and over again.

"Are we really going to do this?" She questioned with a roll of her eyes.

Stiles eyes quickly flickered to the girls with an excited look plastered on his face "YES." He shrieked whilst throwing an arm around the Hales shoulder.

"But seriously?" She hissed as she shoved his arm off of her body. "I'm always up for fun- you two idiots know that, but maybe we should sit this one out."

It wasn't that she didn't want to find the body- it was that she didn't want to be in the woods. Her childhood memories consisted of her being in the woods, of her exploring, causing trouble, running.

It wasn't that she had a problem with being in them, it was that she had a problem with the trouble they attracted.

Agreeing with the girl, Scott finally spoke up."Dude maybe she's right, besides what if we get caught?"

Not one of Aires concerns but at least she had somebody to advocate with her- even though she knew Stiles would somehow get his way.

"Oh my god, not you as well Scott. Come on dude, you're the one bitching that nothing ever happens in this town!" He practically yelled at the two.

Giving each other one last look, Scott and Aires began to follow after the pale boy. Nothing Stiles ever suggested ever ended well, and the two had a feeling this would end in disaster just like all of his other ideas.

But the woods was something the boys stayed clear of. Aires never went into the woods with them and they never asked her to. She knew better than anyone that the woods were a dangerous place. Someone always ended up hurt.

"Hey I was trying to get a good night's sleep before practice tomorrow." Scott fought back, earning a scoff from the girl.

"Right, so you don't get exhausted after all that hard work of sitting on the bench." She three back whilst snickering, making Stiles chuckle at her remark.

"No, I'm playing this year, in fact, I'm making the first line." Scott replied over confidently with a smug look on his face.

"Aye Scotty boy now that's the spirit, it's good to aim unrealistically high at things that will never come true, everyone should have a dream, even if it's pathetic." Aires sassily replied, once again causing Stiles to snicker with her.

Their laughter died down and the trio walked in a comfortable silence with Stiles in front and the other two trailing behind. Whilst trying to keep with the boys pace, Aires started to think deeper into what they were actually doing.

Sighing, the green-eyed girl finally decided to ask the questions that lingered in her mind. "Hey boys, what if whoever killed the person is still out here? What if they see us before we see them and they try to kill us too? What are your plans then dumbasses?"

She could kill them easily, however that wasn't a detail she wanted to disclose to them.

They would never find out the truth, not unless she had no other choice
