So pre-warning before we dive into this chapter, there is a video which contains a spoilers and suicide, there is also implied suicide present in the word bits.

I can't help but notice the difference in Stiles's behaviour, heart rate and the chemo signal he is currently giving off, it is as though he is remembering what is about to happen next. Compared to last time, it isn't embarrassment, anger or fear like before but instead I am feeling sadness and grief.
Mitch, would you like to wait outside or in the outdoor area while everyone else watches the next series of events?
I along with everyone else looks directly towards Sties slightly confused and concerned over what we are about to witness. I notice that Stiles doesn't answer right away but instead seems to be debating the offer provided to him.
"Thank you for the offer but I am happy to remain where I am and proceed with everyone. I may take you up on the offer afterwards." Stiles states and I notice his hand gripping the side of the chair he was currently sitting on. It was as though he was trying to control his full emotions been seen.
"Stiles, it is okay if you want to miss this one out. I can sense how this is currently making you feel even though you are trying your hardest to hide it." I advise him giving him a small comforting smile, hoping he will change his mind and go for a walk while we watch whatever this maybe.
"I said I am fine, thank you Scott! Just because you knew before as someone who was seen as the weakest link, but I am no where near been that person anymore. Besides I don't let things get personal anymore." Stiles snaps at me and I wish in that moment I had kept my mouth shut, I can never understand where he always got this assumption that he was a weak link, in many ways he is the strongest member of our pack.
"Ha nice try Thomas, if it wasn't for you and your crazy plan everyone here would have been toast at least four times over by now." Minho states and I can't deny what he is saying and as I look around to the others, I notice everyone nodding including Stan and Irene.
"Thank you for trying to make me feel better Minho, but we all know that is not true. You know I never a plan and if on the rare occasion I do it never works out the way planned." Stiles states and I am someone not the surprised that he hasn't taken the compliment Minho has just gave him.
"Well, everyone knows that Plan A never normally works anyway." I state giving Stiles a wink earning myself a glare, I generally feel as though he is glaring at me that hard as though waiting for my head to explode.
Stiles goes to open his mouth as though to retaliate but Gally cuts him off first, "Thomas, just accept the compliment without any more arguments, you stupid Shank."
Time to wave your white flag on this one, I think!
"Shut up and just continue with what you are showing us!!" Stiles harshly snaps again at the voice causing everyone to stop talking and focus back on the screen once again.
Very well, I am sorry if I crossed a line. Now, unaware of the strike team on there way Mitch took off after Ghost and quickly found him in a situation that was not going to end well either way.
I can't believe what she did, I judged her too harshly. I can hear light sniffling coming from Mum, Lydia and surprisingly Coach.
"Coach, are you crying?" I ask him trying to not sound judge mental as it was a horrible thing for us to watch and I can't imagine how it felt for Stiles to face it in person.
"No, don't be so silly. I just have something in my eye and something is irritating my nose." Coach states before loudly blowing his nose, I do forget sometimes more then I should that Coach is just like the rest of us.
"Don't do that Coach! Don't bottle away your emotions, they will always find a way to come out and it is normally in the worse possible way." Stiles advises and he sounded like a man speaking from experience, but I suppose after what we have seen previously and now I guess he does know.
Stiles rises from his seat and walks over to Coach and wraps him into a tight hug as Coach breaks down crying. As I look at the scene in front of me, I can't help the tears that fall down my face. Once he releases him, Stiles walks towards the door opening and leaves with a single word to anyone else. Right now though, he shouldn't be alone especially having to relive what he just has, I rise from my seat and leave through the door also and find Stiles in the garden area again.
"I am not going to ask you if you are okay but I want you to know I am here if you need to talk." I advise him as I sit down on the bench under the tree, I notice his body is shaking slightly to show me he is crying.
I rub gentle circles around his back providing what ever type of comfort I could possible, it seems to take a while for him to stop shaking before he slowly sits up right and looks at me. I am taken back by the broken person I see sat in front of me, Stiles has always been so strong even in his darkest of times and this is a strength of his I have always admired.
"Talk to me Stiles, please. As they say a problem shared is a problem halved." I state hoping the old saying Mum has used way too many times on me, will work in this instance.
"Rewatching that back with Annika, I just realised how much she reminded me of myself both after Teresa died and after Katrina died. I wanted to see my family." Stiles advises his eyes shining with tears as the tough exterior he had up since we all arrive here, I was finally seeing the real him once again.
"We are always here for you Stiles, anytime you have wanted to come home we have been here waiting for you. You can see any member of your family anytime you want, either in Beacon Hills or at the Safe Haven." I advise him and notice he shakes his head as I say this and I am confused as that is all the family unless he has another secret family we don't know about.
"I know that silly, but that is not who I was on about. I wanted see my family in the same way Annika did! I wanted to see Mum, Allison, Aiden, Erica, Boyd, Ben, Alby, Jeff, Chuck, Jack, Winston, Mary, Newt, Teresa and Katrina." Stiles advises and my heart drops into my stomach as I realise what he had meant.
He wanted to see his family!
