a story in which scott was never the love allison was looking for.
stiles was.
We were all stunned into silence. We were under the water for 16 hours. It felt like just mere minutes.
We had approximately 3 hours and 37 minutes to figure out how to stop Jennifer and save our parents. We know where they are, the problem is getting them out safely.
"Remember when I made a deal with Deucalion?" Scott spoke up.
I immediately shook my head. "No. Scott, we can't trust him. He could kill you.. or our parents. I don't..." I paused. "I've seen too many bodies. I'm not adding my father to the list."
Scott's eyes softened. "Stiles, I know it's dangerous. I know that, but he's our best option right now. He's the only one who knows how to take Jennifer down."
I heard Allison sigh next to me. "He's right, Stiles." She placed her small hand on my shoulder. It was comforting, and instantly, I relaxed.
"Fine. Go find Deucalion. Allison, Isaac and I will split up and search the woods until we find the Root Cellar. I'll take my jeep, you guys go on foot. Isaac smells scents more accurately that way."
Everyone nods to my idea and we all break into our groups. Lydia had left with Aiden some time ago, and as much as I didn't like it, I knew she had to go.
I've always had a crush on Lydia. Since the third grade, I've had an overwhelming urge to protect her. I was obsessive and impulsive but I was infatuated with her.
But ever since Allison walked through those doors a month ago, I wasn't so sure if I even thought of Lydia romantically anymore.
Allison, Isaac and I all walked out of the clinic together, me heading to my jeep and the other two heading off in the direction of the woods. Allison gently grabbed my arm before we split.
Her eyes shone with fear. "Come back to me...to us, I mean." Her lips pressed to my cheek in a quick motion.
My heart stopped and I was frozen for a second. It seemed she felt the same way. She cleared her throat, before skipping away towards Isaac. I don't think I've ever felt more shocked yet happy in my entire life. Not that I was complaining. The cheek kiss just made me even more determined to find her after all this was over.
