CHAPTER FIVE
Clairvoyant
⠀⠀⠀⠀

First period was biology. Liam sat on a table a few seats in front of me. I wished I had been his partner, but I got paired with Mason the first day; which isn't so bad. Meanwhile, Liam was paired up with Lindy. Luckily, she wasn't here today so I had nothing to worry about.

Well, almost nothing. If she touches Liam again, then I'll werewolf out on her.

Ouch

Realisation hit me. What if Liam has a thing with Lindy, and I'm just his backup plan? No, no shake it out of your head Jess. G e t. i t. o u t.

"So, you and Liam huh?" Mason whispered to me as a teacher I had never seen before walked into the room. The teacher was definitely not Mrs. Martin.

"W-what?" I stuttered, my heart racing.

"Do you... like him?" Mason asked with a sly grin. His head turned to look forward, mine following. My gaze fell upon Liam, who was already looking over at me with a smile. I grinned at him, biting my lip as I did. This is how to act cute, right?

I felt Mason nudge me with his elbow as Liam swivelled around on his chair to the front again.

"No need to answer, you totally dig him." Mason laughed.

"What? No, no I don't like him." I defended, acting innocent as we both pulled out our books.

"Right, right. You love him."

"Mason! Stop."

The teacher shuffled around to the board, her head gazing around at the class as she held her finger to her mouth as a symbol to shut up.

"I don't love him." I whispered, ignoring the teachers request of silence.

"So you admit to liking him?" Mason grinned with raised eyebrows.

I sighed, deciding that my attempt at hiding it wasn't working, considering Mason was not giving up. "I never said that. But if you must know, then yes. I like your best friend. Happy now?"

Mason nodded with the biggest smile I have ever seen. He drew his attention to the front of the room as I did. On the board was written: Pop Quiz. Great, just great. What a day it is.

"I can hear you, you know?"

I jumped in my seat, becoming scared of the voice that just echoed in my head.

"What? Who the hell are you?" I whispered, expecting to be answered.

"It's Liam."

I paused for a second, taking in what was happening. He can hear me, and I can hear him? Oh, right... werewolf super hearing.

"Oh." I whispered again, covering my mouth with my hand so that Mason wouldn't think I'm talking to myself. Luckily, he hadn't noticed.

"You and Mason talk louder than you think."

My heart raced and my body shivered. Oh god, did he hear everything? First, Scott and Stiles see Liam and I 'almost kissing', and now this? I really have no luck.

I sighed quietly, picking up my pen as the teacher began walking around the class to hand out the pop quiz. "You heard everything, didn't you?"

Liam shuffled in his chair, turning his head to look at mine. He bit his lip as he smiled and nodded his head.

I held in a laugh, not bothering to notice how embarrassed I should be. "Of course you did."

The teacher slapped her hand on my desk, along with the dreaded quiz I couldn't be bothered doing. I looked away from Liam, and decided to at least try.
