Hey everyone! Thanks for reading! I really hope you enjoyed so far. I've been re-watching all the Teen Wolf episodes and have been obsessed with it once again (not that I ever stopped ha-ha) I'm a big Lydia and stiles and when I saw the episode where Tracy attacked Lydia I came up with this idea. Originally, I wanted to start from their official kiss at the end of season 6 but I changed it up.

Chapter 1

Her eyes snapped open and all she saw at first was the white ceiling. She turned her head to the left and saw the bare white wall. She heard beeping in the room and turned her head to the right and was surprised to see none other than…Stiles? What was he doing here? Not that she minded. She really wanted him there, but she didn't understand why he'd want to be there. There he was, sitting in the chair beside her bed with his arms and legs sprawled out, head back snoring loudly. She tried to sit up but the muscles in her stomach denied her the ability to do so causing her to cry out in pain. Stiles gasped and jumped out of the seat ready to fight whoever was in the room. He looked down and saw that Lydia was awake.

"Lydia? Oh god you're awake!"

"Uh yeah did you expect me to be dead and talking?" She said sarcastically as she pressed her hand to her stomach. He went to push the help button on the wall, but her hand shot out and grabbed his arm. "NO!" He looked at her in surprise. "Please not yet. Just give me a few minutes." At first, she thought he was going to go against her wishes and push the button but instead his eyes stayed on her and he lowered his hand. "Do you want me to leave?"

"Please don't"

"I won't leave" He said softly as he sat back down in the chair beside her bed.

"Why would you stay? I'm always so mean to you." Tears began to fall from her eyes. He stood up and bent down to get eye level with her. He placed his hands on her cheeks to make her look at him. "Lydia, let me tell you something. From the moment I set my eyes on you when I was 8 years old, I swore to myself I was never going to give up on you. From the moment my eyes fell on you…I loved you. I still do. I'm sure you knew that from all the following around I did" He gave a slight laugh and all she could do was stare at him in awe. "I…I don't know what to say" He shook his head. "You don't have to say anything. I just needed you to know. I'll go let the others know you're awake." He went to turn and walk out of the room, but her hand shot out grabbing ahold of him by the shirt. It caught him by surprise causing him to almost fall on top of her, but he managed to steady himself on the rails. Her hands grabbed him by his face and pulled him to her and placed her lips on his. Seconds later they pulled away both breathing heavily. She looked at him with eyes wide. She shook her head at him. "No, I do need to say something…I love you too" He stared at her for a minute before pulling her back in for another kiss.

"God, I've been waiting years to hear you say that. Though I would've preferred for this to happen outside of a hospital." He gestured around the room causing her to give a small laugh which caused her to realize how much pain she was really in.

"You ok? Do you need anything?" He asked with concern written on his face. She looked around the room then back at him. "I really need a painkiller right now" She replied with a single tear running down her cheek. He could tell she had been hiding her pain from him. "okay, I'll go get a nurse. I will be right back. Do you want to see everyone?" He reached his hand out and gently wiped the tear away. She looked at him with heavy eyes.

"Can you just tell them I'm really tired right now and I'll see everyone tomorrow morning?"

"Yeah, of course. I'll be right back." He leaned down and gave her a kiss on her forehead before opening the door and walking out to get a nurse. When he walked out, she let her head fall to the pillow and gave into sleep once again.
