If we are being honest I didn't feel like updating due to lack of reviews but I personally adore this story and it's my baby so I will never not update it.
Lydia had been in the hospital for a full two days before she was truly alone with Malia; Scott had gone to get a car seat for Lily with Stiles who insisted that his niece get the best one. Kira and Erica went back to their motel in order to discuss what they were going to do and Allison went with them claiming she needs a nap on a semi comfortable bed. Malia was currently holding the baby and cooing at her making weird faces every so often, Lydia smiled warmly "You know I'm surprised she likes me" Malia said breaking Lydia from her thoughts
"What do you mean?"
"I'm so cold and I read that babies like warmth"
"Well she probably just loves her aunt" Malia smiled and didn't reply she was completely taken by the baby girl "Malia?"
"Yeah?"
"Can I ask you something?" Malia's head snapped up and sensed that whatever it was, was worrying Lydia. So she put Lily down in her crib next to Lydia's bed and sat on the end of Lydia's bed
"What's wrong?"
Lydia shifted in her bed slightly "It's just that…Do you remember our conversation we had when I had woken up from my nightmares?" Malia nodded slowly as the talk came back to her "Okay so you remember how you said that werewolves are allowed to move on and mourn?" The were-coyote nodded again "What happens if they come back?" Malia suddenly understood the point of Lydia's conversation
"Lydia you need to stop" she said simply
"What?"
"Scott loves you okay?"
"I know bu-"
"No buts Lydia Martin. Scott loves you and Lily more than any past mate he used to have, you can see it just by looking at him" Lydia bowed her head, Malia huffed and moved closer to her "Lydia" her tone was softer "Look I get your insecurity suddenly Scott's first love is back and you feel like he will just take Lily and be happier with her" Lydia raised her head and to two made eye contact "I felt this too, you know?"
"With who?"
"Stiles" Lydia raised her eyebrow "Oh come on Lydia everyone knows that you were Stiles Stilinski's first love"
"It's just that I never thought"
"That I felt like you were a threat?" Lydia nodded "I always did, people were trying to fill me in on what the pack was like and of course Stiles' unrequited love for you came up"
"I love Stiles but not how I love Scott"
"Yeah I know that now but I was still very much in my coyote way of thinking back then and I saw Stiles as mine and you as a threat"
"What made you stop?"
"I talked to Stiles about it" Malia said and Lydia shook her head
"I can't talk to Scott about this"
"You have to"
"Mal-"
"Lydia if you don't talk to him this is going to consume you and then you are going to become that crazy girlfriend and Scott will have to put you in a mental institution"
"Just make sure it's not Eichen" Malia opened her mouth to give a retort but Lily let out a small cry, Malia got off the bed and picked up Lily attempting to soothe her but to no avail
"What's wrong with her?" Lydia gestured for her to hand her over and Malia did so
"Nothing she is just hungry" Lydia said as she threw a blanket over her shoulder and started to adjust her under it
"You know I'm not done talking about to you about this, right?" Lydia opened her mouth to respond but at that moment Scott and Stiles walked in with a car seat debating on something
"I think we are" Lydia said with a smug smile, she let the thoughts of Scott leave her as he sat down next to her, kissed her head and told her how he had to talk Stiles out of getting the car seat that cost four hundred dollars with Stiles interrupting to say 'it was a nice fucking car seat alright?'

Allison walked in to Lydia's room to see everyone in the room with Lily nestled in Erica's arms; the ex-hunter moved and sat on a couch next to Stiles. She waited until everyone stopped talking that she decided to "Guys?" everyone looked to her "Do you have a home to bring her to?" Lydia's head bowed and Scott and Stiles looked anywhere but Allison
"We live in the jeep" Malia answered
"So no?"
"The jeep is our home" Malia defended, that damn car had housed them for the last 5 months and she had grown attached to it. All of them had.
"I don't want to start a fight" Allison said hearing Malia's defensive tone "I just want to know what you guys plan to do"
"Well we have bene looking for an apartment but…" Lydia trailed off
"One hasn't exactly fallen into place" Stiles finished, Erica hugged Lily a little tighter at the thought of the small girl living in a car.
"I know that this is a long shot but why don't you come home?" Allison suggested, Lydia shook her head
"That isn't possible"
"We're runways" Scott reminded everyone, sometimes he forgot but then remembered every time his heart rate picked up when they saw a cop "We would get arrested"
"Malia how old are you?" Allison asked suddenly knowing she was the youngest out of the four
"17"
"When do you turn 18?"
Malia shrugged "In about 2 months"
"Well in 2 months you can come home"
"What are you talking about?" Malia asked, she was very frustrated
"When you're 18 you are an adult so they wouldn't be able to do anything" Stiles explained to her why holding on to her hand
"Exactly! So you guys can come home in 2 months"
"Allison it's more complicated than that" Lydia said softly
"What are you talking about?"
Lydia let out a breath "Allie we didn't leave just because I was pregnant"
Allison, Erica and Kira all looked very confused "What are you talking about Lydia?" Erica asked
"It wasn't safe for me or the baby"
"Right because of the supernatural…right?" Kira asked
"No this reason was a little more human"
"Please that guy was a monster" Scott mumbled but Erica heard him
"What are you talking about?"
"My dad he umm he" Lydia couldn't talk, she was suddenly very tongue tied
"He what?"
Scott moved and sat down next to Lydia and hugged her to his chest, Lydia never liked talking about him "Guys maybe we should just let it g-"
"He beat me" Lydia said suddenly pulling herself from Scott
"I'm sorry, what?" Allison was in disbelief
"He beat me, I needed to leave because he would've killed the baby" Lydia casted her eyes down "And me" she mumbled out. Allison jumped up and walked out of the hospital room "Scott go get her" Lydia said as soon as she saw Allison leave the room
"What?"
"Go get her" she was practically pushing him off the bed "Hurry!" he nodded and ran following Allison's scent.

She didn't go far. He found her sitting on a bench hunched over in front of the hospital she looked like she was crying but she wasn't making any sound "Allison?" her head snapped up and she in fact was crying, he sat down and pulled her into his lap
"How could I not know?" Allison cried out, Scott simply shushed her and petted her hair he understood where she was coming from. Even now Scott asks himself the same question. "That bastard was beating my best friend and I didn't know!" she was yelling through her tears and he knew she just needed someone to vent to so he just held her and let her scream and cry.
"I know, I know" he said quietly, she had stopped yelling and now she was just softly crying into his chest with people passing every now and then sending them sad looks, probably thinking they just lost someone.
"Scott?" her voice was small and raspy
"Yeah?"
"Did you know?"
"No"
"Did you want to kill him when you found out?"
Scott let out a breath "Yeah I did, Lydia had to hold me and make sure I didn't so something I would regret" he let out a low chuckle "I wouldn't regret ripping that bastard apart"
"I feel like I should've known"
"We all should've known but we were always dealing with something but then…"
Allison picked her head up "What?"
"You died"
"Oh"
"Yeah and one day me and Lydia were just watching a movie and I noticed a bruise on her arm, she could've played it off but she broke down and told me everything"
"So you knew before she got pregnant?"
"Yeah after that I was always with her and I never really let her go home too much and when she did we went through the window and I would sit on a chair in front of her door while she slept"
Allison groaned and sat up by herself but still partially on Scott's lap, she buried her head in her hands "God damn it" he rubbed her back soothingly "You guys really can't come home?"
"To be honest?" Allison nodded "We probably could, Lydia's 18 and she could live with me and my mom but"
"But what?"
"Allison that town holds so much bad memories and misfortune, not a single one of us ever wanted to go back. We love the people and we miss you guys like hell but we started a life here and we are happy. Lily can have a happy life here"
"She is always going to be connected though; she is bound to be a werewolf"
Scott sighed and ran his hand over his face "Yeah I know but at least she won't have to deal with what we dealt with" Scott turned his head to look at Allison "We grew up too fast, we had to make decisions that changed us forever so young, I mean for God sake's you died Allie!" he yelled the last part but she didn't flinch, she knew him too well and he knew that sometimes Scott needed to let it out "I don't want my daughter to grow up without a father or mother because we were fighting some creature, and I don't want to-" his voice wavered and she saw his eyes glass over
"What Scott?" this time she the one to rub his back soothingly
"I don't want to bury my daughter at 17, Allison" at that part she flinched a bit "I don't want to lose her to a world that never brings you anything but bad luck and misfortune"
"Scott" her voice was soft
"No Allison you don't get it! I had to bury you, your dad had to bury you, and the pack had to bury you and I didn't know if we were ever going to recover from that" he took a deep shaky breath in "I can't lose her, I won't lose her"
"Scott she is already in this world at least back home she will have a life were she knows and she's prepared for the life that comes with being special"
"I can't Allison" Allison sighed and laid her head on his shoulder
"When did life become so hard?" he let out a small laugh
"Sophomore year"
So umm yeah I hope you like it…Review? Please?
