Lacrosse Practice

When they reach the lacrosse field, Lydia and Allison sit on the bleachers while Zephyr makes his way to coach finstock.

"Excuse me coach, you called for me to try out."

"oh, the pretty boy with the weird name, i read your file. it says you were quite the football player. the players are gonna practice making a goal. watch them, see how its done and then try it for yourselves and try not to suck. understood?" and he handed him a lacrosse stick

"but-"

"shut up" said the coach and then he walked away towards Scott telling him to be the goalie to raise the spirits of other players. 

The practice started and he could see scott trying to concentrate to hear Allison's conversation, so when coach blew the whistle he got a sharp pain in his ears and ended up with a ball to the face.

after that scott stood up with determined face and started concentrating. a ball came at him with high speed but to him it looked like it was coming in slow motion and he had all the time in the world to catch it and he did catch it quite easily and didn't miss a ball after that. this went on until jackson got frustrated and and cut the line and attempted a shot but that got caught by scott to and to add salt to the wounds Lydia got up and started cheering for scott. 

Finally it was Zephyr's turn and Allison saw that and said to lydia "look it's his turn, do you think he'll make it?" 

lydia replied "you heard him didn't you? he never played lacrosse before this. if scott blocked jackson's shot then he has no chance"

Zephyr who was obviously listening thought 'guess i have to prove her wrong' and started running towards the goal. scott who was at the goal saw the ball leave the stick and he was astonished everyone else's shot, even jackson's looked like slow motion but Zephyr's shot looked fast, really fast. and before scott could even move his stick to intercept the ball it was already in the goal.

everyone was silent for a while trying to digest the fact that a newbie made a shot that not even the best player in the team could. when suddenly the silence was ended by the shouts of coach.

"Now that's what I'm talking about!!! Good job, princess!!!"

"Coach my name is Zephyr."

"I don't care. what i do care about is that you just made the team. if you do good in the scrimmage on friday you'll make first line, so practice and get someone to explain the rules."

"Yes coach." by now Zephyr knew better than to argue with the crazy dude.

After this he walked away from coach and towards scott and stiles who were practicing. 

"Hi, Scott right? i sit behind you in english class."

"Hi, yeah I'm scott and this is stiles." said scott mildly surprised that Zephyr approached him.

"and you're the princess" stiles chimed in

" that is one of my names, yes. but i prefer Zephyr or Zeph. and i was wondering if you guys could teach me a bit about the rules and how to play. Coach kind of abandoned me."

"yeah coach is a bit... eccentric."

"you mean batshit crazy?"

"yeah, that works too." stiles replied 

"soooo, can you? show me what to do, i mean?"

Stiles and Scott looked at at each and then said "sure" at the same time. 

So they spent the rest of the practice together and by the end of the practice zephyr understood most of the rules and how to play. this shocked he picked up all of it in such a little time but with his enhanced abilities and eidetic memory it was a piece of cake. he also got along pretty well with both of them and they exchanged numbers. he could see that scott was still a little distant with him in the beginning maybe because of his crush on Allison but he came along in time, maybe because this time he didn't interact with allison at all like in the show and it was still just a little crush not the obsession that scott gets for Allison as show goes on.

Zephyr met up with Allison after practice. 

"do you wanna study with me today. I can teach you English." 

"Really? cause it looked like you weren't paying any attention in class" Allison said with raised eyebrows.

"That's cause i already know it all. i already read kafka's metamorphosis and dissected it, if you don't believe me how about you i prove it to you."

"All right, lets see how much of a genius you are, in the evening"

"sure, by the way you want me to drop you off, I'll point you to my house. it like a 5 Minute walk from your house." 

"Sure, let me just call my dad and tell him"

after that they went to the parking towards his car.

when allison saw it she said "That's a nice car you got"

"She is a beauty isn't she?"

"She? you call your car she" she asked with a giggle

Zephyr made a fake offended face and said in dramatic tone "How dare you, she's the love of my life."

Allison started laughing and watching her Zephyr also started grinning stupidly.

"all right let's go." 

they both got in the car and zephyr started the car and started driving away. unlike in the morning there were many people outside the school so his car gathered considerable attention.

on the way he showed her the his house which was on the same street as hers and just 5 minutes away. 

"So which one is you house?" as he only knew he was in the same neighbourhood as Allison because he saw chris around more than once and her mom told her about the people who also recently moved in. He didn't know which house exactly was her.

"it's that one" Allison pointed and Zephyr pulled over to see an angry Chris Argent on the porch.

"sheesh, if looks could kill I'd be dead in the most horrific way"

"don't worry, he only looks scary but he is relatively harmless." said allison

'if only you knew you are talking about one of the finest supernatural hunter out there.' he thought

"well if you say so, see you in evening"

"See you." and she stepped out of the car. and then with a wave went to her father and started talking to her in hushed tone about embarrassing her which Zephyr could obviously hear. he caught the gaze of chris so he just smiled and waved calmly and turned his car around to go back to his home

after going home he cleaned his room, took a shower and changed his clothes into something casual but something that still looked good. seeing all of this his mom asked, "are you going out?"

"No, a friend is coming over we're going to study together."

"ohhh~ a friend huh, and is that friend a guy or a girl?" she asked with a little excitement in her tone 

"it's a girl and she's a friend" he said 

"wow you never bought a girl home all this time, i was starting to think you dint swing that"

"MOM!!" he said in an embarrassed tone

"oh alright, I'll let you get ready."
