Jessica's outfit

School/library

Sinema

Jessica walked through the school hallways, her mind clouded with thoughts about last night's events. Her head was mostly filled with ideas of what Tracy might be seeing as she had werewolf claws but a kanima tail and she could cross over a line of mountain ash. 

But there was a small part of her brain that wondered about the second hole Liam, Mason, Drew, and Brett had found in the woods. Who had climbed out of that one and why? Scott had filled her in on what Deaton told him, telling her that they thought Tracy was made and not turned. It scared her a little, especially since the vet had gone out of town directly after saying that. 

"Hey, Jess!" the McCall girl snapped out of her thoughts at the sound of the familiar voice, turning around to see Acindina jog up to her. The older girl wasted no time in throwing her arm around Jessica's shoulders, the younger girl letting out a small laugh. 

"So," Acindina started, prolonging the 'O' way too long. Jessica raised her eyebrows, urging her to continue and the Narvaez smiled slightly. "I have a question," she stated and the McCall girl gave her a look. "I figured." 

Acindina chuckled slightly before speaking again, her voice serious this time. "I accidentally looked over at Scott's desk in AP biology today, and when I say that it means that it wasn't an accident at all, I'm a curious person and he's hot with the tattoo you know...." she trailed off and Jessica raised her eyebrows in amusement as the older girl laughed nervously. 

"You think my brother is hot?" the McCall girl asked, making Acindina purse her lips. "Yes, but that's beside the point! Anyways, is he into mythology or something?" she inquired and Jessica frowned slightly. "No, not that I know. Why?" 

Acindina shrugged slightly, playing nonchalantly as she pretended not to be interested. "I just saw some kind of list on his desk. There were all kinds of mythological creatures on it, like, werewolf, and kanima..." she trailed off as she noticed the confused expression covering the McCall girl's face. "And now you think I'm some kind of stalker. Great." 

Jessica chuckled at her friend's words, shaking her head reassuringly. "I don't think that you're a stalker, Dina. But I actually have no idea why Scott would have a list like that. My guess, however, is that Scott is a secret nerd and by not telling me and Stiles, he drives us insane thinking he's boring." she explained and Acindina smiled at her words.

"I knew befriending you was a good idea." the older girl stated and Jessica smiled cockily, Acindina's words feeding her ego to the max. "I know right."

🎭

Jessica couldn't explain why, but she had taken Acindina to the library, having a feeling that she could be useful to the pack. It was obvious that the Narvaez girl was nervous since she bounced on the heels of her feet when she walked and fiddled with her fingers.

The McCall girl tried to muster up a calming smile but had no idea if it worked, Acindina smiling nervously. As the two walked up to the few members of the pack that had gathered in the library, Acindina perked up in interest, hearing what they were talking about.

"Anything in here about half-werewolves, half-Kanimas?" Kira asked but before anyone could answer, Jessica cleared her throat. Everyone turned to her, their eyes widening once they noticed Acindina's presence. The small group smiled politely at the Narvaez girl, all of them clearly hoping she hadn't heard what they were talking about.

"Everyone, this is Acindina. She works with me in the video store. Acindina, this is Scott, Kira, Malia, and Stiles." Jessica introduced them all, pointing to each person as she said their names. Stiles narrowed his eyes in suspicion but her kept his mouth shut once he saw the warning glare covering the McCall girl's face.

Noticing the bestiary on the table, Acindina looked over Jessica's shoulder in interest, her eyes wide in excitement. "Holy shit! Is that a bestiary?" her question took everyone by surprise, nobody stopping her as she started reading in it, turning the page every now and then.

Stiles suddenly cleared his throat and Acindina blushed deeply as she stopped reading, backing away slightly with a sheepish smile on her face. "Uh, how do you know what that is?" the Stilinski boy questioned and she pursed her lips before answering,  deciding to be honest.

"Do you believe in the supernatural?" she questioned and they all shared a look, Jessica smiling in amusement at her girlfriend's slightly offended expression. When they all finally nodded, Acindina smiled in satisfaction before continuing.

"Well, ever since I was little, my grandmother has been telling me all these stories about, for example, kanimas. I started studying mythology a couple of years ago but I have never seen a bestiary in real life before," she told them and Stiles nodded slightly, still suspicious about the girl.

Acindina was quiet for a moment before speaking up again, this time about Kira's earlier question. "A half-werewolf, half-kanima is called a chimera, by the way. Something with two types of DNA inside it," she said, making brief eye contact with Scott before giving Jessica a quick side hug and leaving the group.

"She's right," Scott stated, his eyes trailing after the Narvaez girl as she walked out of the library. Stiles raised his eyebrows and he blinked in confusion as Malia wrapped an arm around Jessica's waist, the McCall girl leaning into her girlfriend's side. "Um, what?" the Stilinski boy questioned, making Scott turn to him.

"Chimera. It's a creature made of incongruous parts. I guess she also takes AP biology..." he trailed off when he noticed everyone staring at him, the McCall boy clearing his throat before continuing. "And if Liam said he found two burial sites, that means Tracy's not the only one."

Realization crossed over Kira's face and she looked up at her boyfriend, asking the question everyone was thinking. "Who's the second chimera?" Stiles nodded at her question before speaking up, adding to it. "And why would they bury them?"

"Deaton thinks it's part of their process," Scott told them, making Malia speak up. "The people in masks."

🎭

Drew and Jessica stood in the Parrish girl's room getting ready. The McCall girl was taking her time doing eyeliner as the blue-eyed girl paced around nervously. They had matching outfits on, Jessica's was black and Drew's was white, their heels in a beige color.

It was a miracle that Drew hadn't fallen and broken her ankle at the quick pace she was walking in the heels. Jessica could only watch in jealousy, wishing she could do the same without falling onto the floor face down.

"Why did I agree to this again?" the Parrish girl asked and Jessica rolled her eyes, knowing she had already answered that question at least seven times. "Because you want to have fun and you, for some reason, want to impress Liam," she told her best friend who finally stopped pacing.

Drew threw the McCall girl a sour look, Jessica only shrugging before finishing her eyeliner.  The Parrish girl sighed deeply before falling onto the bed, her back against the mattress as she stared up at the ceiling, looking like a kicked puppy. The McCall girl raised her eyebrows at her best friend, a tired look on her face.

"You look like a kicked puppy. It's making me feel bad for you, for no reason may I add, so quit it. Drew crossed her arms over her chest, giving Jessica a pointed look. "When you had a crush on Malia, you always looked like you had lost a lung or something. I have the right to look like 'a kicked puppy' if I want to."

The McCall girl thought for a moment before nodding in agreement. "Touché."

Jessica and Drew walked towards Liam and Mason, who were waiting for them outside of Sinema. Liam stod leaned against a metal fence, looking at his phone as Mason smirked when he noticed the two girls walking towards them.

"Jess, Drew, finally!" he exclaimed making Liam look up, his eyes widening as his eyes landed on Drew. The Parrish girl looked down as a blush formed on her cheeks, Jessica and Mason smirking at their friends.

The McCall girl wrapped an arm around Mason's shoulders, pulling him with her as she walked towards the entrance. Drew and Liam walked next to each other, an awkward silence falling over them as the Dunbar boy kept staring at his phone.

The Hewitt boy glanced back, an annoyed expression forming on his face as he noticed the rectangular device in his hands. "Can you put your phone away for five minutes? Scott can howl if he needs you," he stated and Jessica snorted as Drew hid her smile behind her hand.

Liam sighed, finally turning his phone off, his hand brushing against Drew's as he put it away in his pocket. Drew pretended to not notice the butterflies that formed in her stomach a small blush forming on her cheeks again. Jessica who noticed her best friend's red cheeks only grinned listening as Liam spoke.

"I just feel like I should be doing something." the Dunbar boy stated, making Mason stop and put his hands together, holding them out towards his best friend. "You are. You're my wingman tonight. And considering the state of my dating life, I need a wingman, co-pilot, and two really hot flight attendants." 

Liam gave the dark-skinned boy a look before speaking. "I'm definitely not one of your hot flight attendants," he stated, making Jessica scoff. "Duh, Drew and I are the hot flight attendants. We dressed matching for a reason," she told him and Mason nodded as Drew grinned.

"Yeah, you're my wingman, and here, you can get drunk." the Hewitt boy stated, and the Parrish girl smiled sheepishly. "Actually, neither he nor I can get drunk. One of the downsides to being supernatural," she explained, and Mason frowned. "You're supernatural?"

Drew's eyes widened as she realized she hadn't told him yet, Jessica chuckling together with Liam. "Uh, yeah? I'm a fire serpent, which basically means that I can't get burned by heat, and I can throw fireballs." the Parrish girl explained as she held out a hand, a small fire almost immediately appearing in it as her eyes turned orange.

Mason stared at the flame until it disappeared, an amazed expression on his face. "Awesome." Jessica groaned loudly before starting to walk again, everyone following her. "Yeah, supernatural creatures are cool, extraordinary, and amazing, but I want to get drunk. Let's go."

The group walked up to the back entrance of the club, the door opening to reveal a smiling Hayden. Her smile, however, faltered when she noticed Liam among the group, a sour look forming on her face instead as the Dunbar boy sighed.

"I said I'd let you in, Mason. Not him," she commented, making Liam frown. "What about Jess and Drew?" he asked, and Hayden raised her eyebrows as Jessica rolled her eyes. "Jessica is my friend. Drew is her plus one." the Romero girl explained, Drew and Mason sharing a look behind the others' backs.

"You said I could have a plus one as well." Mason pointed out, and Hayden smiled bitterly. "I didn't say plus Liam." Jessica snorted at her words, the Romero girl smirking briefly at her friend. Liam rolled his eyes, letting out a small sigh before speaking.

"I'm his flight attendant."

Hayden frowned at his words, Jessica and Drew giggling quietly with Mason as Liam's eyes widened. "Wingman." he quickly corrected before pursing his lips. "Forget it. I don't have to go in," he stated before starting to walk away, making Drew grab his arm and pull him back as Mason rubbed his temples.

"Yes, you're coming. How about me, him, plus fifty?" he asked, making Hayden glance at the money he held up, her lips pursing before grabbing it. "Welcome to Sinema," she spoke bitterly as she pushed the door open, letting them enter.

Mason and Liam hurried inside before she changed her mind, Drew following as Jessica stayed with Hayden. "I love your outfit, by the way. You look hot." the McCall girl said, giving Hayden a side hug before following her friends.

A/N

Chapter Thirty-two is out now as promised. The first chapter of my new book 'Crazy about you' is now out as well and I hope you'll go in and read it!

I want to warn you guys in advance that I do have quite a lot of angst planned for both Jessica and Drew in season 5. I would love to skip it but sadly, life in Beacon Hills isn't sunshine and rainbows.

Have a nice day/night!
