Unexpected (stydia)

Chapter 23

'you should probably let Lydia know that you will be late.' Jackson said. 

Stiles sighed, 'I guess...' he grabbed his phone out of his pocket and went to Lydia's contact on his phone. 

Stiles: hey Lydia. I just wanted to tell you that I will be late to pick Ben up, I have detention because Mr Harris is an idiot. So I will be there asap after I finish detention. 

Lydia: oh, I'm sorry about that. Mr Harris is a dick. 

Stiles: yep

Lydia: uh Stiles. I am really sorry about what I said to you. I didn't mean it in that way and just when you come over, can we talk?

Stiles: yeah sure. Bye Lydia. 

Stiles sighed as he put his phone down. It hurt him by what Lydia said but he knew he had to forgive her so what's in the harm of talking to her?

=================================

In their last few classes, Stiles was finding it hard not to sleep. But he had to not sleep, he didn't want another detention. He needed to go to the mall and wanted to spend more time with Benny. All he knew was that tonight, he would be sleeping like a baby. Hopefully. He was just hoping that Benny wouldn't keep him up all night again. He really couldn't handle it. 

================================(A/N sorry for skipping so much)

 Stiles was now in front of the Martin house, once again. His detention finished about 12 minuets ago and now Stiles was at Lydia's house. He knocked on the door and waited patiently, then about a few seconds later, Lydia was there, opening the door.  

'hey.' Stiles said once seeing her. Lydia smiled, 'hi...come in.' she said after a bit of a pause. She moved to the side to let Stiles in and Stiles walked in, getting deja vu at doing this many, many times before. And once again, they ascended up Lydia's staircase again. 

'where's Ben?' Stiles asked as they walked in. 

'having his nap.' Lydia replied, looking back at Stiles. Stiles nodded and looked to the side and saw the crib and Benny asleep inside it. He and Lydia sat down on the bed. 

It was silent between them, them just looking at their hands or staring off into space thinking of what to say. Then Stiles finally broke it. 

'look Lydia, I am so sorry I flipped out on you. I was tired' he said laughing slightly. 'I am still but I know I should not have flipped out on you. It just upset me I guess...and I should of called you but I wanted to do it on my own you know?' he said looking at Lydia with sad eyes. Lydia sighed and nodded, 'I get that...I'm sorry that I said that...I just-' 

'worried mother?' Stiles interrupted her, smiling. Lydia nodded, 'yeah.' she said smiling too. 

Then suddenly a cry from the crib sounded. They both looked at the crib then back at each other, Stiles smiled sadly and got up, walking over to the crib. He picked Benny up and Benny almost immediately stopped crying at seeing Stiles. Stiles smiled at him, 'hey bud.' he said as he put him by his hip.

Lydia walked over as well, smiling at them. Benny had his head on Stiles' shoulder. 'Benny really missed his daddy today.' she said. Stiles laughed slightly, smiling. Lydia smiled too, 'so...are we good?' she asked. Stiles looked away from Benny and he looked at Lydia. 'yeah. We're good.' he said with a smile on his face. 

Then Stiles yawned, looking really tired. Trying to hide it but failing. 

Lydia smiled sadly at him, 'you can go to sleep if you want. You can sleep in my bed for a bit, you look like you need a rest.' she finished. Stiles looked at her and shook his head, 'n-no, I am good. I need to go to the mall and I wanna-' 

'Stiles.' Lydia said firmly, interrupting him. 'You need rest. I insist you have a nap.' she said firmly again. Stiles rubbed the back of his neck, with the other hand that wasn't holding Benny. 'are you sure?' he asked. 

'I wouldn't ask or tell you too if I wasn't sure Stiles.' Lydia laughed. Stiles sighed amused, 'yeah I guess you are right.' 

'So I will take Ben and you go have a nap yeah? I will get my mom to go to the mall, she was already going anyway.' Lydia said, reaching forward and taking Benny from Stiles. Stiles nodded and headed towards Lydia's bed feeling a bit awkward but once his head hit the pillow, he was out like a light. 

Lydia laughed and looked at Benny who was looking at Stiles confused. Then he looked over at his mother. 'let's let daddy get some sleep ok? Let's go play downstairs while Grandma gets your stuff to help your poor mouth.' Lydia said smiling at Benny. Yes, she also knew Benny couldn't understand what she was saying but again it was good to talk to your baby, it is how they learn to speak in the first place. 

====================================

2 hours later, Stiles woke up. He rubbed his eyes as he sat up, yawning. He looked round, shocked to be in Lydia's house but then remembering the previous events in the day that Lydia let him sleep in her room. He sighed then swung his legs over the side of Lydia's bed and got up. He rubbed his eyes and then started heading downstairs, knowing his son and Lydia would hopefully be down there.

He walked into the living room in the Martin house to see Lydia doing peekaboo with Benny. Stiles laughed slightly at how cute it was. Benny was giggling at every time she did it. At the laugh, Lydia looked to the side a bit startled but relaxed at seeing Stiles there. 'hey! You are awake! Did you have a good sleep?' she asked. Stiles nodded, 'yeah. I did, thanks again.' he said. Lydia nodded, 'of course.' 

It was silent between them once again. 'uh, by the way, my mom went to the mall and Benny's things are in the kitchen if you wanna go get them' Lydia said breaking the silence. Stiles nodded, 'be right back.' he said as he walked out the living room. 

=========================================

about 2 minuets later, Stiles returned back to the living room, holding the bag with Benny's stuff in. Then he remembered, 'shoot, what's the time?' he said, putting the bag down and pulling his phone out of his pocket. 'oh my god...' he said as he went quickly to his dad's contacts. 

'don't worry, I messaged your dad.' Lydia said as Stiles saw the message she wrote to him and his reply. Stiles sighed with relief, 'Lydia. You are a life saver.' he said smiling at her. He closed his phone and put it back into his pocket. Lydia smiled too then looked back at Benny. 'you wanna go with daddy now? I will see you tomorrow' she said smiling at her son. She kissed his cheek. 

They both made their way back to the hall, by the front door. Lydia had put their son into his car seat. She gave the car seat by the handle to Stiles with Benny still inside of course, safe. 

'well...bye Lydia' Stiles said smiling slightly. He had the bag in one hand and Benny in the other.

'bye, I hope you get some sleep tonight' Lydia said smiling amusingly. Stiles scoffed playfully and laughed. 'yeah. Yeah. Me too.' he said smiling. Stiles gave her one last smile then he opened Lydia's front door and walked out. 

'bye...' Lydia whispered as she watched Stiles walk down her pathway and to his car.
