Butterfly Feelings

I was walking out of the girl's locker room after finishing p.e. with Lydia . We stopped by my locker since we had a free period after p.e. Lydia was messing with the ends of her hair while I was taking books and putting books into my locker.

Some people my see Lydia as a cold heartless bitch, which she was sometimes, but when you really got to know her..She was actually really cool and smart. Why she acted like an idiot, I never understood. After moving to town, she was really nice to me. Normally, people wouldn't go out of their way to make sure you were getting use to a new school let alone town.. But Lydia was very welcoming. So, like they say, dont judge a book by it's cover.

Because Lydia's cover might show her as heartless bitch but she was full of heart, smarts, and actually really nice when she wanted to be. 

"So I was thinking we should go dress shopping after school today." Lydia casually told me while I looked at her confused.

"Why?" 

"Winter Formal is literally less than 48 hours away and you, me, and Allison dont have dresses. So we need to go shop for some now before it's too late!" Lydia started explaining to me while I just nodded my head and smiled awkwardly. 

"Right.." I trailed off. "Do you really want me to go?" 

"Yes!" She laughed before taking out her phone and most likely texting Allison to tell her of the plans. 

"Are you sure...?" I asked her again, hoping she would let me off the hook since she had Allison now.. 

"Come on, it'll be fun. We'll get you a super hot dress and find you a super hot date." She started telling me while my mind wandered off. 

Stiles.

I hadn't had the moment to tell him how I feel since everything seemed  to be getting in the way. First it was Scott with the whole loosing his phone thing, then Derek was taken by the Argents apparantly, and now Lydia was dragging me off to go dress shopping. 

Ugh...

"I actually...think I might be okay with the whole finding a date thing.." I smirked slightly while biting my lip.

"Who are you going with?" She asked me slightly confused.

"No one yet, hopefully he asks.." I smiled to myself while blushing slightly. "Well I should get going so..just meet me at the mall then after school." I smiled before walking off.

I was walking across the track field to cut through and get to the parking lot faster when I heard someone yelling my name. I turned around slightly while noticing it was Stiles. 

"hey." I smiled and waved at him. 

"Hey..What are you doing leaving so early? Aren't you going to watch practice?" Stiles asked me while I nodded my head.

"Lydia is taking me and Allison dress shopping." I groaned. "I promised her I would go so..I'm just going to drop this crap off at home before going to meet her."

"Oh right, the dance..winter formal." Stiles laughed while I smiled back at him.

"Yeah..you going?" I asked him, hopeful he would say yes and then ask me to go with him. 

"Yeah..you?" 

I laughed slightly. "Well yeah, that's kind of why I am going to go dress shopping.." I laughed while smiling like an idiot, just standing there hoping he was going to ask me to go with him. 

"That's cool...we all need to get back to acting like normal...I mean..if we don't enjoy the little things we might all go mad.." Stiles laughed slightly while looking at the ground. 

Come on Savannah, say something.. Anything!

"Well i should let you go then..." I said while looking at the ground.

Dammit Savannah, you're blowing it! You're blowing your chances!

My smile fell but I just shook my head while shrugging my shoulders. "I guess...I'll..see you around.." Stiles said awkwardly before walking away. 

come on Savannah, this is your chance. Stop being so afraid! You're a freaking Alpha, you can handle asking Stiles if he'll go with you to the dance! Come on, you hung out and faced far more dangerous threats than asking someone to be your date to a silly dance!

"Stiles." 

Stiles turned around quickly while smiling at me. "Yeah?" 

Come on, come on. Say something, anything. Don't just stand there like an idiot with your mouth open.. Come on Savannah! You're blowing it! 

"Nothing.." I sighed to myself. I was literally kicking myself in the face right now. Why was this whole 'admitting your feelings and showing your emotions thing so hard? I mean, I think i'd rather go back to dealing with werewolf crap than facing the real problem in my life.

Trying to find someway to open up. about my feelings for Stiles.

Ugh, life was so much easier when I didn't let these pesky little things called feelings get in my way. But then again, I've never had this problem before I came to town... No one ever interested me or... made me want to stay in one place... 

Stiles just smiled at me 

Before we could say anything further, that's when Scott came up to us. 

"Oh hey.." Stiles and I both said awkwardly while Scott gave us a look but thank the lord he didn't say anything. All I need is to feel anymore nervous and an emotional wreck than I already was. 

"We need Jackson to take Allison to the dance." Scott said suddenly while I looked at him confused. 

"What?" 

"Peter threatened her..I can't go because coach put me on academic probation so we need a plan for her to be safe while she goes." Scott started explaining. 

"Well I'm going with her and Lydia to the mall to dress on dresses after school..Im suppose to meet them there..I guess i can butter her into going with Jackson." 

"And I'm guessing we're going to go convince Jackson to take her.." Stiles groaned while Scott shook his head before grabbing Stiles by the arm and dragging him away. "We'll be right back, wait for us by your locker.." Scott said while I tried yelling to them but they just kept on walking. 

Great, just great.

I tapped my foot impatiently while waiting for Scott and Stiles to come meet me at my locker to tell me how the whole thing with Jackson went down. Hopefully they convinced him. Sure I was new to this whole emotions thing and thinking about others before my self and Allison's family were werewolf hunters and if they found out about me i might be dead...Anyways the point is, Allison is actually kind of cool and I wouldn't want anything to happen to her..

She might not see it, but she actually has a lot more fire in her than she realizes. 

I suddenly looked up from my phone after closing my locker to see Stiles and Scott walking over to me. 

"How'd it go? Is he taking her?" I asked them while they just nodded in the direction of a freaked out Jackson asking Allison something. He then looked over at us before laughing at something she said. 

I brushed a piece of hair behind my ear to listen to what they were saying and smiled to myself once I heard Allison agree to go with him. So looks like Scott's plan was going to work I suppose. 

"Well looks like your plan worked. Jackson is taking her to the dance." I looked over at Scott who still had a a worried look on his face. "Don't worry, Stiles and I are still going to be there. We'll have eyes and ears everywhere. There's nothing to worry about." I smiled at Scott and giving him a reassuring pat on the shoulder. 

"Yeah...Savannah and I will still be there...." Stiles mumbled while I looked over at him confused but decided ot drop the subject. 

"You sure you two can work through...distractions?" Scott said while giving us that look. Stiles and I looked at each other before looking at the ground blushing. 

What the hell Scott? I know what that look was. He was implying that we weren;t going to be able to focus on protecting Allison because we were going to be busy looking at each other. I glared at him before rolling my eyes. Seriously telling Scott my feelings for Stiles was a mistake because now i'm going to be teased about it 24/7

"We'll be fine." I mumbled before fake coughing. 

You could literally feel the awkward in the air right now... 

"Well it won't matter, besides, i'll still be there." Scott  stated like it was a fact. Wait, wasn't be banned from the dance? 

Stiles gave Scott the same look I was giving him. "Is that such a good idea? Do you even have a date?" 

"Not yet." Scott started saying. "But neither do the two of you." 

Stiles and I blushed slightly before rolling our eyes at Scott. Dammit, how I wished Stiles had asked me to go with him... and how I wish I had the courage to tell him how I felt... 

"What about a suit?" I asked him while raising an eyebrow. 

"not yet." He slouched against the lockers. 

"Do you have a ticket to the formal? A ride there?" Stiles began asking while I could see the troubled look on Scott's face. He hadn't really thought this whole thing through. 

"No, and no..." Scott sighed.

Stiles laughed a little. "So you're going to ride your bike to a dance you're not even allowed to go to, without a date, suit, a way in, with werewolves and werewolve hunters out to kick your little werewolf ass?" 

"Yeah." Scott laughed while looking at us. "You two going to help me?" 

Stiles and I exchanged a look while smirking a little. "hell yeah." I smirked before adding, "Now let's get this stupid plan of yours in motion." 

*

After school, as promised, I met Lydia and Allison at the mall. Right now we were on the escaltor in Macy's that was taking us to the top floor where all the dresses were displayed. Allison looked like something was bothering her, and practically hearing Scott's voice in my head, I asked her what was wrong. 

"Nothing's wrong." Allison started telling Lydia and me. Lydia and I exchanged a look of disbelief before giving Allison the same look. "I just have a lot on my mind." 

"Well you could at least smile. Ever hear that saying 'don't frown, someone could be falling in love with your smile'" Lydia started telling Allison. I laughed a little before Allison and Lydia looked over at me. "See, Savannah understands. Besides smile Allison, i'm buying you a dress." 

the next conversation was Allison trying to convince Lydia that she didn't have to buy her a dress, to which Lydia kept saying it was okay. My mind drifted off to other things while suddenly I was snapped back to reality by Allison tapping my shoulder and pointing towards a familar looking figure wearing a plaid shirt standing by the perfume counter.

"Isn't that Stiles?" Allison asked while I laughed a little once I saw Stiles leaning up against the perfume counter, looking at a bottle. He must have wanted to see what it smelled like but once he pressed the button, it sprayed all over his face making him start coughing. I laughed a little before nodding my head.

"What the hell is a Stiles?" Lydia asked before looking over at Stiles.

"Oh just this guy that Savannah's in love with." Allison started saying while I laughed sarcastically before rolling my eyes at her. 

"ha.ha. very funny." I rolled my eyes at her before smirking once Stiles noticed us and waved. "I'm going to go say hi real quick, meet you guys at the dresses." I said before walking towards him. 

Stiles tried acting natural but that failed miserably. 

"What are you doing here?" I asked him raising an eyebrow. "More importantly why are you tasting the perfume?" 

"Maybe i was buying you a birthday present." Stiles tried laughing off while I rolled my eyes. 

"Funny, my birthday's not for a couple of months, now...what are you really doing here? Scott make you come to watch over Allison?" I asked him before putting a mental note in my head to hit Scott for thinking I wouldn't be able to protect Allison. 

"yeah..but i also came for you.." Stiles said making my head snap up. 

"What?" I asked him slightly confused.

"I was..I mean..since we're both going to the dance and I pray you don't have a date...I was wondering...maybe if you'd..want to go.." Stiles stuttered. "With me..?" He looked at me hopeful while I couldn't help but smile.

"What? You don't have a date?" 

"Ha ha."He laughed sarcastically before looking over at me. "So..what do you say..? Will you be my date to the formal..?" 

I bit my bottom lip before nodding my head. "Yes." 

"Yes?" He asked in disbelief. 

"Yes." 

"Really?" He asked again, not believing me.

"Yes!" I exclaimed at him while laughing. "There's no one I'd rather go with.." I admitted shyly, hoping I wouldn't blow my chance... 

"That's awesome!" He yelled before calming down a bit. "I..this is great..." He started saying until he paused for a second then looked at me again. "Wait, what about your...things you needed to take care of first..?" 

I smiled while nodding my head. "That's all done with..Now i'm just..looking forward to moving forward.." I smiled while Stiles started blushing a little. "Anyways, since we're going together, want to help me pick out a dress?" I offered while he looked like he really didn't want to but said yes anyways. I smiled before we walked over to the dresses. 

After what seemed like an hour of trying on dresses, I told Stiles he could go that way I could surprise him with my dress that I was going to wear. He asked me what color he should wear and I said just to wear something silver or black. 

I smiled while watching Stiles leave, holding up a dress against my body in the mirror and smiling. This was it, this was the dress. I smiled even wider once i realized that i was happy...

and I was actually going to do something normal for once like go to a winter formal...

and with Stiles
