He'd been avoiding her ever since the incident at the lantern festival. It had been all sweet kisses, followed by fangs and hasty explanations and then he wouldn't text her back. Scott hadn't even given Bay a chance to say it didn't bother her and that she definitely would have liked to keep kissing but nope. He'd just run off and Bay, disappointed, had tried to take the bus home only to end up meeting Scott's mom and hadn't that been awkward?

So she'd given it a whole week before she lost patience. Werewolf or not, he was being kind of a jerk. Which was why Bay was stomping her way over to High Gate Terrace, determined to find him.

"Hey Scott, so, I'm in front of your complex now and you can either come out and we can talk about this," she said into her phone. "Or I can bang on every door until I find yours and embarrass the hell out of both of us. What do you say?"

Scott nodded. "Still me. Even at the full moon, I'm still mostly me. The wolf gets a little stronger though, so...um. Don't hold anything I say against me, on those days?"

"Like I said earlier," Bay pointed out, putting on a wicked expression. "I'm a girl. I know all about getting irritable and mean once every month."

Scott laughed, letting the rest of the wolf fade and looking like himself again. "I'll hold you to that."
