"Lydia? Lydia. Did you hear me?" Malia calls out before holding her paper up, "Look! I passed!"
"C-minus..." Lydia nods
"Your notes are great when they're not written in code." Malia smiles before Coach places another test down.
"Disappointed, Malia-- profoundly disappointed."
Lydia smiles sympathetically, "I'll send you my notes."
Kira looks over. Luisa sat behind Lydia, but hadn't paid much attention to anything. She leans over, "It's over. The computers are off. No more assassins. No more murders. No one's dying."
While Luisa was worried about the assassins, that seemed to be the last thing on her mind. But she gave her a small smile anyway, "I know."
Kira smiled back before settling back in her seat.

As the last bell for the day rang out, Luisa packed what she had out before leaving the class. Anything that wasn't in her bag, would have to wait for the next day. She pushed the door to the school open and followed the teens outside before her steps slow.
Anna looks up from her place beside the railing. She stands upright as teens pass between them. She cleared her throat, "Hi."
"Hi." Luisa says
"I just- um.." Anna starts, "I wanted to see how you were doing after the other night."
Luisa shrugs, "I'm fine."
"Okay." Anna nods, "Yeah, that's good."
It goes silent between the two for a moment before Luisa scoffs, "Is that it?" Anna's eyes snap over as Luisa takes a step closer, "You make sure I get home safe and tell me that I "mean so much to you", but you can barely talk to me?"
"You remember?"
"Of course, I remember, Anna." Luisa snaps, "Why wouldn't I remember you saying that?"
"You were drunk."
"I was drunk because of you." She says, "I was hurt because I didn't know what I did to you."
Anna shakes her head, "You didn't do anything, Luisa."
"God, Anna, thats-" Luisa starts, "You know what? Whatever. I can't do this right now."
Anna's eyes widen as Luisa makes her way down the steps. Anna rushes after her, "Luisa, wait."
"What?" She says as Anna grabs her hand to spin her around. Anna cups her face and kisses her. Luisa's eyes widen before they flutter shut. The two breathe heavily as Anna pulls away. Luisa sighs, "Why.. um-"
"I like you, a lot, okay?" Anna says, "And with my dad M.I.A., I'm scared to lose you. So, I keep you at an arm's distance, but it's fucked up and just a twisted way for me to not get hurt. I'm sorry, Luisa."
Luisa shakes her head, "I'm not gonna hurt you. I'd never hurt you."
"I know." Anna nods, "I know you won't."
"Finally!" The two girls look over as Adrian emerges from the school. The girl sighs in relief, "I thought I was gonna have to trap you two somewhere."
"Hey, Adrian." Luisa smiles as Adrian wraps her arm around Luisa's shoulders.
Adrian turns to Anna with a beaming smile, "Hi, Anna."
"Hi, Adrian."
"You know, I've been waiting for you guys to notice the romantic tension between you two." Adrian says looking between the girls, "Better late than never, right?"
"Yeah, I guess so." Luisa says softly as she stares at Anna. Anna smiles backs instantly.
"Ugh, so cute." Adrian says wrapping her arms around Anna's shoulders and walking with them, "We are now a gay trio."
"Don't call us that." Anna groans
"She's not wrong." Luisa shrugs
"Ahh! Gay trio!"

"They're still not here." Liam says
"Okay, what's really going on? Are you nervous about the full moon? It's not for another twenty-four hours." Stiles reassures as Liam stares at the moon, "Liam, you're gonna be fine. Okay? Just try not to rage out on anyone."
"He's still not here?" Luisa asks walking over with Anna
"No." Liam says turning to Stiles, "You're not worried?"
"Okay, I'm mildly concerned. Mildly." Stiles says pulling out his phone
"It'll be fine." Luisa tries
"We're gonna lose without him." Liam sighs
"No, we're not! We can be just as good without Scott, okay?" Stiles says putting on his gear, "I've been practicing. Let me tell you something, I'm getting good. Really good."
•••
It had only been a few minutes into the game and it had gone worse than Luisa could've imagined. So, she stood beside Stiles and Liam as he explained the plan they had, "All right. Neither of them are answering. I gotta go see what's going on."
"You're leaving?" Liam asks looking between the two, "What are you going to tell Coach?"
The two turned to the man as he began a tantrum on the side of the field, "Stupid! Stupid old-"
"Uh, you don't tell him anything, okay?" Stiles says as Liam turns to him
"Liam, you're gonna be okay. All right?" Luisa says softly, "Text us if anything happens."
Liam nods before the two walk over to the bleachers. Luisa steps up to Anna as Stiles walked over to Malia and his dad, "Stiles and I are gonna go look for Scott and Kira."
"You want me to come with you?" Anna asks
Luisa shakes her head, "No, but can you stay here incase he shows up?"
"Yeah, of course."
"And..." She starts as she looks toward Liam, who mingled at the side of the field, before turning back to Anna, "Just- keep an eye on Liam, please? He's kind of freaking out about Scott, I don't know why."
"Yeah." She nods, "I got it."
"Okay, I'll see you later."

Luisa, Stiles, and Stilinski walk into Derek's loft with Derek and Ariane behind them. They look around at the broken glass and damaged furniture.
Stiles frowns, "What the hell happened?"
"It was supposed to be a date..." Derek says
"And they were both here?" Luisa asks with raised brows
"And they're both gone." Ariane says crossing her arms
Stiles pulls his phone out as it vibrates, "Hey-"
Luisa steps on broken glass as she continues to look around the loft. Stiles sighs into the phone, "Scott and Kira. We just don't know where." Luisa turns back to Stiles as he looks down at the ground, "Mexico?"
"Scott's in Mexico?" Luisa asks
"What the hell is he doing in Mexico?" Ariane asks
"He can't be there willingly."
"Alright, I got it." Stiles says before hanging up, "Scott and Kira were taken to Mexico."
"By who?"
"I guess we'll figure it out."
