I sat at the McCall kitchen table, in their house, which I had been living in for a little over a year watching Scott and Stiles be their weird little selves. They were yelling at each other outside about Stiles showing up in the dead of night being a predator and Scott having a bat.

Laughing to myself I got up and slowly went outside. Just in time to hear Stiles say "No, a body of water. Yes, dumbass, a dead body."

"What are you guys doing out here?" I asked then

"Nothing" they were both quick to respond.

"Alright" I say "Well, Melissa isn't supposed to be back till 8 tomorrow morning," I tell the boys "and I think I'm gonna turn in. I start my job tomorrow at your school and I feel super tired." I turn to go back inside while faking a yawn. Pulling out my phone to call my dad.

"Hey dad!" I say when the phone picks up.

"Hey kid it's Billy your dad's grabbing something for me he'll be back in a few minutes" Billy says

"Okay" I respond with "how's life on the Rez been?"

"It's alright Jake has gotten a new car to work on," He tells me.

"That's awesome I bet one day that he will be the go to mechanic in all of Washington."

"I'd have to agree" he says chuckling "oh here comes your dad. Talk to you later"

"Alright, talk to you later Billy"

"Hey kid" dad says "what did you need"

"Hey dad" I say "I didn't need anything. We just haven't talked since graduation and I feel like life is about to get really busy and we aren't gonna see each other or talk to each other again for a while."

"Oh kid, I'll always have time for you" he informs me.

"Thanks while I guess we'll have to talk later it sounds like you have company" I tell him.

"Just Billy and a few others, but I'll talk to you later. We can set up a week to visit each other. I love you 3000." Dad says to me.

"I like the sound of that. I love you 3000 too, you old man. Bye" I said, hanging up. I could hear him laughing as I did so.

While I suppose I should actually go to sleep. I head off to bed falling asleep. I wake hours later to a thumb rolling towards the edge of the bed. I look at my alarm clock and see it reads 3:00 am. Groaning, I walk towards Scott's room to check on him.

Seeing the light on I push the door slightly open. "Scott," I whisper "are you okay? What was with the noise?"

All of a sudden he pops out from his bathroom.

"A wolf bit me" he says and those four words changed all of our lives as we knew it.
