chapter three.
Blind talks and Popcorn.
Lydia had spent the night trying to avoid any physical contact between her and Stiles or looking at him to long, Because whenever they did she would have butterflies in her stomach every time, It seemed like Stiles felt the same way or was just being chivalrous towards her and had spent the night on the floor until he woke her up from the nightmare, Which had her wrapped in his arms until the morning when she shot out of bed to have the first shower.
Stiles unaware of Lydia's conflicting feelings had gone down stairs to phone Scott to talk about what happened yesterday.
"hey who where you on the phone to?" Lydia asked as she came down stairs in one of his shirts and her sweats, Her damp hair piled ontop of her head, "Scott" Stiles said putting his phone down on the kitchen side "Breakfast" He asks earning a soft smile and small nod,
"He just found out about yesterday when his mom told him that school had been cancelled for the day, I had to tell him that Allison was there, Instead of Archery practice, He got off pretty quick after that" Stiles said moving about the kitchen with ease.
"Right Allison I should go see her, Later" Lydia says watching him put 3 glasses of Orange juice on the table, Before coffee and place mat's.
"morning Lydia, How are you feeling this morning" Sheriff Stilinski asks remembering coming home to the sound of her crying and the sight of her wrapped in Stiles arms, One look at his son shows their both thinking the same thing. "I'm fine thank you for letting me stay the night" Lydia says taking a sip of her orange juice,
"No need to thank me your welcome here any time, Oh I spoke to your mom" He says causing her eyes to widen "you did?" Stiles asks for her setting plates infront of them before getting his own and sitting down.
Stiles gets the look from his dad that is code for 'I wouldn't say it if it wasn't true' "yes she rang to tell me that school had been cancelled, From the damage and the storm that's coming in" Lydia relaxes into her seat and starts on breakfast.
"How bad is the storm meant to be Sheriff Stilinski?" Lydia asks before biting into the bacon "Bad the weather channel have put us on tornado watch, I'll have to set up road blocks at certain points if it gets worse" the sheriff says drinking some coffee "Your going to work in that" Stiles says growing agitated at the thought, "I have to Stiles I'm the sheriff" not even thinking about her actions she puts her hand on top his that sits next to the plate "Its okay Stiles, Your Dads bad ass, Nothing to worry about" Lydia says trying to ignore the butterflies.
"See, Like she said I'm Bad ass" His dad says before ruffling his hair and standing up "oh your gonna have to stay here until the storm passes I spoke to your mom she's fine with it" "what!, Why?" Stiles and Lydia ask at the same time, "House arrest across the town, Don't be surprised if there's a black out" And with that the Sheriff was out of the door.
"Well, What do we do now?" Lydia asks looking at a still worried Stiles "Movies" Stiles says "Sure, You go pick I'm gonna ring my mom and Allison to check in" Lydia says getting up and walking up stairs to her phone.
"Lydia it's fine no he's not here yeah he hasn't turned up, So your staying with Stiles for the day and possible night" Allison says looking through her closet for something cute to wear but at the same time it had to be something that said she hasn't Tried to look cute she reasoned in her mind, "I think its sweet" 'IT IS NOT SWEET!' Lydia's voice say booming through the phone , At the same time her door knocks. "crap I gotta go, Promise me you'll stay at Stiles" Allison says before hanging up and going to the door.
"Hey I just heard are you alright" Scott says wrapping her into a hug, She returns it before they both realise and step back "Sorry" Scott says looking away "Its fine" Allison says before turning and walking away back towards her bedroom.
"How was the road's getting here?" Allison asks for a conversation starter, "I don't know?" He says stepping awkwardly into the room, "What do you mean, How did you get here then?" She asks from her spot at the edge of the bed, "I ran" He says with a shrug "You ran how that's crazy it's like 3 miles Scott" Allison says "it's nothing, Werewolf remember" He says.
Scott speaks up breaking the silence that had fallen, "I wanted to make sure you were fine, I know I'm not supposed to but-" "Scott its fine" Allison says standing up to look at him "I just couldn't stand the thought of you being there with out me there to-" "Scott its fine" "protect you and it must of been horrible I just-" "Scott its fine" Allison says touching his hands to stop him from speaking.
He looks down to their close position and gulps loudly "Had to make sure" He says for something to do other then put his lips on hers like his whole body was screaming at him to do.
Allison looks at him with a sad smile and steps back slightly looking around the room for something to speak about, Spotting her phone she speaks "Hey guess who Lydia is spending the day with" She says looking at him.
"Stiles, I bet he's over the moon" She says looking at him "huh, I wonder why he didn't say something earlier" Scott says "that's weird" he says almost forgetting he's not alone.
"What is, Them spending the day together or him not telling you about it?" Allison asks "Not telling me about it, Although he said the other day he was gonna try to not talk about her for a week" Scott says thinking back to his little promise the other day in front of Derek, "Why would he do that"
"He's spoken about her at least once a day since we were 13, So I've heard it all from him Lydia this, Lydia that" Scott says hesitantly sitting on the edge of her bed, "He's like her since then" Allison says "you mean loved, Stiles is full on in love with her" Scott says watching Allison make a cute gushy face over the romance of it all, "That's so sweet, We have to get them together" She says looking at him determinedly "Why"
"Because Lydia's never been in love not proper heart hurt when their not around love, And Stiles would be perfect for her, And he already loves her, The should try dating, They deserve that at least " She says looking at him seriously, Scott knew what kind of love she was talking about, His heart has been hurting ever since she left,"heart hurt love" Scott says looking at her seriously, The intensity making her swallow forcefully.
"I'll do it" He says as his phone rings, "Hello mom, What , Okay I'm coming" He says getting off the phone, "Isaac's at the hospital" He says taking one last look at Allison before leaving.
"I can't believe you did that" Stiles says looking at Lydia who was sat at the other end of his sofa, "I did, I mean how else was I gonna stop her from wearing them, I mean they were bright green Stiles" Lydia says with a cringe.
"I bet there are stories about you and Scott when you were 9" She asks which he shakes his head "no, That was the year, Anyway me and Scott didn't do much apart from sit at home watching movies" Stiles says
"What was she like?" Lydia asks after the silence grows longer, Stiles looks at her and smiles sadly "She was great, Funny would always make my dad laugh with just a look or one word and he'd be in stitches, Taught me how to cook and I don't know if you remember but in 3rd grade you got a card with red lace and inside there was silver glitter" "That was you, Jackson told me he made it" Lydia says remembering the card well.
"Oh, Well she spent the whole night fixing it for me, She was the one who told me that I should send you one, It's the only time I've been able to give you a card" Stiles says looking away and back to the T.V unaware of the emotions stirring inside her,
"You've always been there for me, Just silently" Lydia says causing Stiles to turn his attention back to her "Why, I became a bitch to you or I simply just ignored you" she says looking at him seriously "Why me?" she says quieter.
"Because of that" Stiles says making her look back up at him "Because even when you ignored me I could still see that we're the same, And when you we're mean to me I could still see the girl with braces and plates who would sit next to me in class and help me remember my homework so I didn't get in trouble" Stiles says "I've always been able to see the real you" He says in the quiet,
Wordlessly she moves and lays herself down against him her head on his chest breathing in his familiar smell, Seeking the security he gives her.
Scott watched as some one pushed Unconscious Isaac into an Elevator, The tall wolf in question turning to him smugly and pressing the button for the doors to close. With out thinking Scott turned his hands into claws and runs into the closing elevator making it just in time.
The alpha stands over him his werewolf side unleashed before Scott can stand up the alphas hands are on him, Lifting him and throwing him against the walls.
Isaac forgotten starts rolling into the lift as Scott gets thrown about like a rag doll, Grabbing him by the throat he lifts him up dangling him in the air his back towards the doors, "Don't you realise what your dealing with I'm an Alpha" He roars at the same time the doors open with a ting.
Derek pushes his nails into the alphas back forcing him to drop Scott to the ground, "So am I" he growls before throwing him out of the Elevator.
The doors close and Derek turns his head to Scott "Aren't you supposed to be in school"
"Hey, Guys house arrest is over, Stiles?" Sheriff Stilinski says coming into the house stopping in front of the sofa, "Kids" He mutters under his breathe as he places a blanket over Lydia who is laying on top of Stiles both completely asleep.
Blood. Lots of Blood, Lydia walks slowly forward her feet getting wet from lack of shoes, She looks around the pool and has no clue how she got there, But she just knows that its Blood even in the dark she just knows, Drip, She follows the sound of the drip up and looks up, Her gaze falling on the body of boy around her age, So she does what any one would Lydia screams.
