Stiles woke up in his bed without Malia next to him. He remembered that she was spending the night at his house and he wondered where she went. There was something different about his room that made him sit uneasily while he checked the time. It was 3:45 in the morning, the air was still humid and heavy, and his door was wide open. He remembered closing it so he and Malia could have some privacy. He walked into his hallway quietly so as to not wake up his dad and saw his door was open as well. He went down his stairs to see his living room trashed. Tables were broken, couches were ripped, lamps were smashed and the front door was ripped from its hinges. He ran to his dad's room only to find that he too was gone. Stiles got a sick feeling in his stomach and ran out the door. He saw a trail of blood that started from the bottom of the stairs and led into the woods. Stiles frantically started yelling for his dad and Malia but was answered by the silence of the trees. Taking off in a dead sprint, Stiles chased after the trail that was leading him deeper into the forest. It wasn't long before he found himself in an opening near a creek but the trail had stopped. He looked around and saw what seemed to be a cave that was somewhat hidden in the brush. Stiles ran inside to find that his dad and Malia were being held by berserkers, the same ones from Mexico. He tried to run forward to help but he was stopped by and invisible wall. He pounded and screamed his lungs out trying to distract the monsters to no avail. Malia looked at Stiles as did his dad, they were scared and beaten. They were both bleeding in several places. A berserker raised its hand to show a blade in it. Stiles' eyes widened and he frantically tried to run to Malia. He saw that the berserker that had his father had done the same. Malia looked at Stiles and said, "I loveā¦" She never got to finish the sentence; the berserker slit her throat. His dad looked at Stiles and the look in his eyes gave it away. Its ok son, it's ok. Stiles wept as the second berserker killed his dad and then suddenly the barrier was gone. The berserkers had vanished but the bodies of Malia and the Sheriff still remained. He ran to them and cradled them as he cried. Suddenly a man with no mouth was standing at the exit of the cave. He held a hatchet in his hand that had fresh blood on it and slowly approached Stiles. He looked at the strange man and realized what was about to happen to him. The mouthless man somehow said, "The list Stiles, you and your loved ones are all on the list." He brought the hatchet down and as it made contact Stiles woke in his bed screaming. He was drenched in sweat and breathing heavily. Malia woke up next to him and immediately put a hand on his shoulder. He turned and latched on to her tightly as he sobbed into her shoulder. His dad busted into his room worried for his son's safety. He paid no mind to Malia because he already guessed that she and Stiles were together. He sat on his son's bed and made sure Stiles was ok.
"Stiles, you with me buddy?" His dad asked getting Stiles' attention. Stiles let go of Malia and hugged his dad tightly.
"You're both ok. It was a dream." Stiles said with his face in his father's shoulder. He didn't want to explain what he had just had a nightmare of to them. It was so real and terrifying that he couldn't fall back asleep. His dad left him about 15 minutes later after making sure he was ok. Malia constantly held his hand and reassured him that it was only a nightmare.
"Malia, it was those things from Mexico. They took you and my dad and slit your throats in front of me. I couldn't stop them and it felt so real. There was a man that said everyone I loved was on a hit list and then he killed me." Stiles said giving her the short story of his nightmare.
"Oh Stiles, that's terrible. I promise that I won't leave you. We're mates right? We need each other, we keep each other safe." Malia said looking Stiles in the eyes. "I won't let that happen Stiles. I promise." She kissed him and he kissed her back. Being in her embrace made him feel safe again. When he was with her he felt strong. Malia was still only in her bra and she moved to where she was straddling him.
"Stiles I want you." She said between kisses. Stiles wanted her as well. He wanted her badly. Despite wanting not to rush things, they were in love. Malia found his hidden box of condoms that he had bought just in case and grabbed one. As she took off her clothes and he his boxers, she was happy. Stiles put the condom on and began to kiss Malia. They fell on his bed and she giggled as he kissed her neck and everywhere else. They changed positions and she was on top of him again. She loved the way he felt inside of her. They continued for a time before both hitting their climaxes that were close together. She finished first and waited until Stiles was done before collapsing on his chest. They were both breathing hard and he began to play with her hair as she drew patterns on his chest with her finger.
"Stiles, I love you." Malia said getting up and looking at him for a response.
Stiles was surprised by her statement and smiled. He kissed her and said, "I love you too Malia Tate."
They both fell asleep like that and they felt at peace. Stiles still had a weird feeling about his nightmare. Specifically what the man had said.
The list Stiles, you and your loved ones are on the list.
