"Here you go, Bryson!" I said handing him a tissue.
"Thanks" he said sniffing.
I gave him a small smile as I saw him sneezing again and blowing his nose on the tissue I gave him. Apparently, he has the flu. A really strong one. He has a very high fever and he always says he feels cold. Funny, huh?
Anyways, thanks to that I have to take care of him, along with Ginny, and I can't go see Scott. Pitty. I really wanted to know what was happening. Now that I think of this, what I really want to know is... Why do I keep talking like i'm British?!
"Feeling any better?" Ginny asked, handing him a plate full of chicken soup.
"I-I-g-guess" he said shaking like mad. Wow, he really is cold!!!
"How the heck did you get sick all of a sudden?! You were perfectly fine yesterday!" Karen said.
Yeah, that's true. Maybe it's because he goes to the woods every full moon? Maybe. Sometimes it rains.... Yeah, that's probably it.
And no, Jake and Ginny don't know about Bryson being a werewolf, yet. Karen does, she freaked out when we told her. Well, actually she found out.
Smart girl, she is.
Jake and Ginny don't know about Scott being a werewolf, either. We still don't know if wether we should tell them or not. There's a 99.9% that they won't believe us, well, for Ginny. Jake... I give it a 60.5%. They will probably think that we have gone mad. They could even send us to a madhouse!!
No, really, they could...
"It was probably because Mark had the flu yesterday, too" Bryson said as he ate the soup.
I watched him as he ate it.
"Maybe" I said shrugging. "Why so quiet, Jake?"
By this, all eyes turned to Jake. He was writing something in his phone, and he seemed so concentrated on it. It's not typical from him, so what the heck is wrong??!!
"Yeah, he's been like that for a long time now"
"Yup. And he hasn't let go of the phone once"
He didn't say anything. He just kept texting whoever he was talking with.
"Jake"
.....
"Jake"
....
"Jake"
...
".... Jake..."
...
"JAKE ANTHONY ANDERSON!!"
Finally, he looked up, but he looked as if he didn't hear anything. "You guys said something?"
'You have got to be kidding me' I thought as I placed my hand on my forehead in frustration.
Who is he texting that he's so into the conversation?
"Yes, stupid. Who are you texting?" Ginny said.
"No one" Jake said suspiciously.
"Yeah, right," Karen muttered. "Are you texting a ghost, then?"
"Maybe" he said and we all rolled our eyes, even Bryson.
"Just tell us who are you texting!"
"I don't want to!"
"Come on!"
"No!"
"Please?!"
"No?!"
"Pwease?!"
"Nope"
"Pleeeeaaaaasssseee?!"
"I said NO!!!!"
"Okay you guys," Ginny interrupted. "If he doesn't want to tell us, then we have to understand it"
We looked down. Maybe she's right... but I really wanna know who is he texting!! Meh, maybe it isn't that big of a deal.... right?
"Thank you" Jake said standing up.
He started to walk towards the kitchen, and it caught me by surprise when Ginny ran towards him and jumped on his back, knocking them both to the floor. Karen, Bryson and I sat there staring as they fought for Jake's phone, even little Ajax was watching them. Ginny won the battle, and soon we knew it she was reading the texts. When she finished, we all looked at Jake.
"You're texting Allison??!!" I asked.
"Yeah. So?" he said standing up.
"Are you guys dating?" Karen said.
Not helping here...
"No, we're not" Jake replied.
"It looks like you are" Ginny said eyeing Jake's phone.
"Well, we're not, okay? Leave me alone!" Jake said taking his phone. He was blushing!!
"Awww, you really do like her!" I teased him, and soon the others joined.
"Stop it, guys!" he said with a small smile plastered on his face.
We all started to laugh, until my phone rang. It was Scott, and as soon as I saw his name on the phone screen I stood up and went to my room, Ajax following behind.
"Scott, is everything alright?"
"Yeah, everything's fine" he said.
"Is Stiles alright?"
"He is. But Derek and him got attacked by a Kanima"
"Kaniwha?"
"Kanima," he corrected. "It's the same beast that attacked you at Isaac's"
"Oh"
Kanima....
That's an..... interesting name....
"Yeah, but they're fine, so don't worry" he said.
"Did you find the Bestiary?" I asked.
I heard him sigh. "No, I didn't"
"Darn it" I muttered.
"We were thinking that maybe you or Allison could enter Gerard's office and try to find it" he said.
"Why us?"
"Because you're his granddaughters" he said in an obvious tone.
"So?"
"So, you guys have a bigger chance to find it than us"
I sighed. I wasn't going to win this, was I? No, I wasn't. So, I gave up and just when I was about to reply I heard Scott panting. "Scott?"
He didn't answer. I instantly got worried about him, and I got even more worried when I heard Gerard's voice. I couldn't make out what they were saying, all I heard was muttering. But then I heard Gerard saying something about knowing what Scott really was, and something about a threat that had to do with Melissa.
That was before the line went dead...
