Third Person

Victoria turned in Scott's arms, snuggling closer into his chest. A smile made its way onto the boy's features as he looked down at Tori. As her eyes were closing, and she felt herself slipping back to sleep, words slipped from her lips.

"I love you, Scott McCall." The boy went rigid, unsure if he heard her right. After a moment of shock, a goofy smile broke onto his face.

Scott wasn't sure if he loved her yet, but he knew he liked her more than he's liked anyone. And with that being true, he did love Allison. Scott also knew that his feelings for Tori were different than his for Allison, he and Tori's relationship was deeper than his previous one.

Tori was different, in every sense of the word. After pondering over himself, he realized something. Scott put his lips onto her head and whispered to her, a revelation that she didn't hear.

I sighed as my feet hit the cool ground, Scott left about two hours ago. My dad is at work and who the hell knows where Stiles is. So here I am, pregnant and alone.

I decide to take a nice bath and grab a towel before heading to the bathroom. I fill the tub up with hot water and I add in bubbles and some oils, I love bubble baths.

My shirt comes off quickly, along with the rest of my clothes. I tie my hair up quickly, looking in the mirror as I do so. My arms drop to my sides as I look over my body.

I've changed so much since I found out I was pregnant. For starters, my boobs have grown half a cup size and my cheeks have filled out a bit, giving me more round features. I frown into the mirror, realizing that my body will never be the same again.

The frown doesn't last long, as my eyes drift down to my small baby bump. My frown is replaced with a smile and I feel love in my heart. It will be worth it.

I turn from the mirror and pad over to the tub, the warm water invites me in. I feel my entire body immediately relax, all the tension leaving me.

A sigh leaves my lips as I close my eyes, absentmindedly rubbing my belly while I relax deeper into the tub.

My mind drifts to Scott, I think I accidentally slipped that I love him last night. Although, I don't think he heard it. If he did, he would've said something this morning, right?

I mentally shake those thoughts from my head. I really need to relax right now, all this stress isn't good for me or the babies.

The scent of lavender fills my nose and I sigh. I begin to hum a song, one that I haven't heard in a very long time. It's the song my mom used to sing to Stiles and I when we were little... she used to sing it to me when I was sick or sad.

I began to sing while rubbing my stomach. "We have been heaven blessed, I can't believe what God has done, Through us he's given life to-" I stop singing and look to the door quickly as the sound of glass shattering alerts me.

I hear footsteps and my heart begins to beat at an alarming rate. My eyes look around the bathroom. Shit, I left my phone in my room. I look to the bathroom door, realizing all too late that I didn't lock it.

The footsteps get closer, so I do the only thing I can. I take a deep breath of air before sinking below the surface, hoping the bubbles will hide me. I try to keep all my air in my lungs as I hear the muffled sound of the door being opened, hitting the wall loudly.

An overwhelming sense of fear blankets over me, I feel my lungs burning for release. I can't do it, I can't-

A hand grabs onto me, pulling me from the water and out of the tub. I lie naked on the floor, coughing for air. I look up to face my intruder.

"Jennifer?" I ask, wondering why my teacher is in my house, I instinctually cover my breasts with my hands and bring my knees to my chest. She rolls her eyes and tilts her head, a smirk on her features. "Oh please stop with the scared baby act. You're coming with me." Jennifer forcefully grabs me from the ground, I wince at the pain from her gripping me so hard.

My mind races for a solution, I can't fight her, she has a knife in her hand. I think back to what Scott said to me, if I yell he'll find me. Jennifer turns to grab me some clothes, I use this to my advantage.

Without a second thought I grab my phone off my nightstand quietly. I press onto Scott's name and hit call. Before she can notice, I set the phone on the nightstand, knowing he'll hear what's happening.

"Why are you doing this?" I ask as she throws me some clothes. I quickly dress, not liking the feeling of being exposed. "I don't have to explain anything to you. Now hurry, we don't have a lot of time."

"Scott will find me." Jennifer scoffs. "No he won't. He'll think you ran away, I wrote a note and everything." Suddenly we were interrupted by Scott's voice from my phone. "Victoria?"

Jennifer looks at me with a glare before making a b-line for the phone. "SCOTT HELP ME! It's Jennifer!" I scream before she breaks my phone in half.

She turns to me, slapping me across the face with so much force. I cry out at the contact. "You bitch! Now I'm going to have to kill you." Jennifer tsks. "I really thought you were smart Victoria. Straight A honors student, you had so much ahead of you..."

Tears well up in my eyes, not in fear for myself but, for my babies. I sniffle, trying to think of a way out. There has to be a way out. "But then, you had to go and pull a stunt like that. Calling Scott? You should have known better."

"So, what. You're the one killing those people? Making sacrifices?" I ask, my voice breaking off at the end. She killed all those people. Oh my god, is she going to kill me now?

"Don't look so surprised." She roughly grabbed me by the arm and pulled me from the bed. I swallowed hard, the feeling of the cold blade pressed against my throat. "Let's go. We don't want anyone walking in on us."

"Scott will find me. And when he does, you're dead." Jennifer laughed, the blade moving slightly through her fit of amusement. "It's too bad you won't be alive when he does."
