Blue Love (Malia Tate)

Before It's Too Late

Debby's POV

It was the day of the game and everyone was frantic. The cheerleading squad was such a mess but know we can pull it off walking to the girls locker room I'm ambushed by a nervous Liam,

"Hey...Liam"

"Have you heard from Scott?"

"Did you ask Stiles?"

"I haven't seen him"

I look down at my phone and right on time it's a message from Scott,

HEY KIRA AND I ARE GOING TO BE LATE FOR THE GAME LET STILES AND COACH KNOW
-SCOTT

I showed Liam my phone and he seem to be at ease a little, but not to much,

"Debby"

We look up and I see Stiles rushing over in a frantic rubbing his forehead,

"I got a text from Scott"

I nod,

"Me too, Kira and him are going to be late to the game"

Stiles Nods looking at Liam who seem to go straight into panic mode when he grabbed my arm forcefully,

"Well, how late is late? Is he always late?"

I pull away from he's grip and put gentle hand on his shoulder smiling,

"Liam calm down"

He shakes his head,

"We're playing Devenford Prep again and this time it's an actual game. He shouldn't be late."

We heard footstep making their way over. Looking over Liam's shoulder I see coach Finstock *Great* He looks at us raising an eyebrow,

"Who shouldn't be late?"

Stiles take a deep breath while I rub my forehead and Liam turns to coach quietly saying,

"Scott and Kira."

Stiles nods,

"They might be slightly late."

Coach raises an eyebrow,

"Slightly late is still late. What are they doing?"

I looked back and forth between Liam and Stiles biting my lips till they bleed trying to hold my laughter *is he serious?* Stiles jaw fell open looking at coach rubbing his forehead and scratching his head looking at coach replying,

"They're doing something that's going to make them slightly late."

Still slightly dazed coach looks at us,

"What could Scott and Kira be doing right now that's more important than playing in the first game?"

*is he dense* I begin opening my mouth but gets cut off when Stiles covers my mouth shaking his head like 'don't' smiling I bit his finger looking at coach laughing while shaking my head going toward the door,

"Oh, Coach."

Once it was game time all the player and cheerleaders headed out toward the bleachers. Looking at the crowd I wink at a Malia gathering around the other girls talking about the cheers. We decided to create a new cheer in remembrance of Isabella. Moving around smiling and waving my pom poms I smile looking at Liam and Stiles walking on the field to the bench. Making my way over smiling waving my pom poms

"Hey good luck out there"

They both give me small smiles which I knew were fake sighing I sit on the bench with them making sure no one was looking. I nudge both of them,
