one year ago

Freshman year was so close, I was finally gonna be a high schooler. Something I've dreamed about for as long as I can remember.

I hoped it would be like the movies but nothing is ever like the movies, and i say that because my boyfriend of almost 3 months is on his way to my house to talk.

He texted 10 minutes ago, 'we need to talk'. Which is a bad sign already. No girl ever wants to hear that.

He spent all of our last school year of middle school chasing me and trying to get me to let him take me on a date. Finally beginning of summer break, I caved and let him take me on a date.

I was so reluctant to date him because not only is he my brothers best friend but he's also younger than me. Only by about a year but it's still the fact he's younger than me age and maturity wise.

The knock on my bedroom door indicates he's here and my mom probably let him in the front door because my mom adores Stiles and is already saying we're gonna get married.

I walked over opening my bedroom door revealing my boyfriend Stiles. "Hey." I awkwardly greeted him as I stepped aside letting him in, we still weren't allowed to close my bedroom door when he was in my room but progress.

My mom obviously trusts and loves Stiles but I'm just surprised she allows him in my room at all just me and him.

I walked over sitting on my bed, "so..." he followed sitting beside me, "you said we needed to talk which is something no girl ever wants to hear." I teased as he nodded slowly, no breaking his serious face which meant it was serious and not just about some myth he read about on the internet.

"Uh, I don't really know where to start." He rubbed his hands across his jeans, I assumed wiping the sweat off because my palms were also sweating. "I have been thinking the past Um few days about just us and all."

No. He's not, right? He can't be doing what i think he's doing. "No." I spat out as he looked up to me confused, "what?" He questioned as I shook my head, "what are you doing?" He shrugged, "talking, can I finish please?" I nodded slowly.

I didn't want him to continue. I knew what he was doing and it wasn't going to be long before the tear began because I didn't want this. This is exactly what I was trying to avoid at the beginning of summer.

"I was thinking about us and how the last couple of weeks we've both been busy, and hanging out less and how we're only gonna be seeing each other less with school starting and I just," I nodded slowly, I could feel my face heat up and my eyes begin to burn from holding back tears.

"You just think we need a break?" I questioned as he nodded slowly admitting it, he looked down to his lap. "It's just, we've barely seen each other the last couple of weeks and it's only gonna get worse with high school."

I nodded standing up from the bed beginning to pace the room, "yeah, you just said that." I know it was harsh but he would be harsh too if he was in my place.

"Look, Soph, I'm sorry i just think we need to take this time and maybe someday down the line we'll find each other when we're more mature and in better places." I shook my head,

"this isn't a break, Stiles. Breaks don't exist when it comes to relationships, breaks are just an excuse to let the other person down a little more easier." He sighed shaking his head standing up from his place on my bed,

the same bed we had our first kiss, the same place he told me he loved me for the first. That was also the night I told him I didn't know what love was and that I didn't know if I loved him "yet"

"No, no I just think we're both still young and inexperienced," I turned back to him shocked, "you want to see other people? During our "break"?" Break was of course spoken with air quotes performed by my fingers.

He shook his head, "Sophie," he spoke soft as I faced away from him wiping the tear that escaped. I wasn't gonna let him see me crying, I wasn't gonna give him the satisfaction of seeing me hurt by him.

"It's okay, Stiles. I get it," I turned back facing him, "you want more. You want someone who can love you. You want someone who isn't me. That's fine but at least be honest about it, maybe it would've hurt a little less." He winced slightly at the word would've.

"We're going into high school of course you'd want to be single, hell maybe I should be thanking you. I'm sure the guys would love a girl who's freshly single and a freshman but older than all the other freshman!" He sighed shaking his head, "we can still be friends, but,"

I scoffed letting a harsh chuckle fall from my mouth as I shook my head "we, we will not be friends, Stiles. If I see you in school I will turn the other way and pretend we have never even met. I'll pretend to not even know your name."

The tear that twinkled down his cheek almost made my heart ache but then I remembered he's the reason we're here. HE was breaking up with ME. No, sorry, HE was saying we should take a break. Which in my opinion is the same thing as a break up but with hopes we'll get back together later on.

And for him to stand here and to have the nerve to say we can still be friends after he just ripped my heart into a thousand pieces that makes him a coward.

I cleared my throat fighting back the tears that were fighting their way to the surface, "go, Stiles." He took a step toward me as I stepped away from him sticking my hand out keeping distance between me and him, I shook my head "go!" I repeated more demanding this time.

He sighed defeated as he slowly backed away from me, "I didn't want to hurt you." His voice was soft as he turned around leaving the room. His exit allowed the sob that had been lodged in my throat the whole time to climb to the surface.

I covered my mouth as I walked back over to my bed letting the tears fall, I moved the cover back and climbed in wrapping the blanket around me.

Stiles Stilinski just broke my heart. It felt like he just ripped it out of my chest throw it on to the ground, stomped on it about a thousands times then picked it up and ripped it to shreds.

Present day

I watched as Stiles horribly flirted with Lydia. I found out later that week that Stiles broke up with me because he was planning on asking Lydia to go on a date with him but he decided not to when he seen she had befriended me the first day of school.

Like I said, Karma is a bitch.

I'm over Stiles, but I still haven't quite moved past how he broke up with me. It's also a reason I've been avoiding dating.

If Stiles, my brothers best friend, can break my heart, what's stopping any other guy who isn't friends with Scott from breaking my heart worse?

I had been avoiding Stiles for the past year, making sure I was never home when he was hanging out with Scott and always sitting as far away from him as I could when we had classes together.

One thing I'm thankful that came from our break up was Scott and his friendship went back to normal, before when we were dating they were off.

I always felt Scott resented him for going after me, his sister. Scott is my little brother but he's always been protective over me like a big brother.

Stiles slowly turned around and walked back over to me, "so? How'd it go?" I played dumb like I didn't just listen to their whole conversation, "yeah, not good." I nodded slowly as he nodded, "but i you knew that didn't you?"

I shrugged shaking my head, "nope." He nodded, "yeah you did." I chuckled nodding admitting it, "okay I did, but I couldn't help myself."

I stepped aside hiding in front of Stiles, "don't move." I watched as Lydia stood up as Jackson walked over to her, "what?" He turned around looking as I smacked him, he jerked back around looking at me confused "okay. What is it?"

"Jackson is here talking to Lydia." He nodded slowly, "okay? Isn't that her boyfriend?" I nodded as I watched them, "shh, I'm trying to listen." I focused on them listening in on their conversation.

"You should get another one right before the game too." Lydia demanded as Jackson gave her a concerned look, "the pros do it all the time." She reassured as he dropped his hand from his shoulder, "wanna be a little a high school amateur or do you want to go pro?" She stepped closer to him.

I looked away making a disgusting face as they began to make out in the middle of the hospital. I turned back as they walked toward the exit arms linked. "God they are disgusting." Stiles sighed, "guys," we turned to see Scott walking out of the doors leading to the morgue.

"So?" Stiles questioned as we turned facing him, "the scent was the same." I sighed, "are you sure?" Scott nodded, "yes." I nodded slowly, So Stiles was right.

Derek is the murder. Damn it, I was kinda hoping he was wrong and Derek was innocent. "So what now?" I questioned as Scott shrugged, "we go see if that's actually the body buried there."

"Woah, woah. No way. If Derek sees us there he will literally kill us. And I am not really in the mood for two fights in one day." Scott sighed, "then distract him." I looked at him confused "what?" He nodded slowly, "he told me earlier to tell you he needed to talk to you so talk to him. Get him away from his house so we can dig the body up."

"I don't know if you guys know this but you're trying to send me to hangout with a potential murderer? And you're both just okay with it?" They looked to each other and then back to me nodding, "we obviously know you're somewhat stronger than him so there's nothing to worry about."

I debated whether I was willing to risk my life for these two idiot while they are going to tamper with murder evidence. I had spent the past year avoiding being a loser with them and now here I was involving myself with there stupid theories.

I nodded as I sighed, "fine, I'll get him to meet me at our house. Mom is working a night shift so no one will be home if something happens and I have to murder him." I stated as they both shrugged.

God, what am I getting myself into?
