stay positive.

♥ 21 ♥

A couple of hours later and Scott drops by with Malia, walking in on the adorable sight of Theo feeding the newborn, whilst Liam is still dead to the world. Thankfully, the annoying Stiles has left by that point, same with Lydia. Though Theo didn't really mind Lydia being there, he could quite easily hold a conversation with her, and he didn't feel like she judged every little thing he did or said.

"Hey." Malia said, voice loud as per usual.

Theo's eyes went wide as they flickered between the were - coyote and then back to Liam a couple of times. Malia's not stupid, sometimes. She understood that Theo was trying to tell her to shut the fuck up. 

Malia rolled her eyes as she stood there staring at Theo holding the small bundle from across the room, Scott had already crossed over and was peering over Theo's shoulder at the tiny thing, gripping the edges of the bottles and trying her hardest to down it as fast as possible. Definitely Liam's daughter.

Scott let out a small chuckle "She's so beautiful, Theo."

"I know." Theo responded, a very proud dad indeed "She's perfect."

Scott nodded in agreement, urging Malia to come over and see the newest pack member. She begrudgingly moved from her spot near the door, staring down at the tiny, chubby thing in Theo's arms. 

Now, Malia hates kids. She's openly admit that to anyone who asks, but there's just something about the tiny little thing curled into Theo's chest, gripping her bottle so tightly while looking around the room with big eyes, that Malia found absolutely adorable. Was she going to completely melt down on the outside, as she was on the inside over this little creature? Absolutely not.

"She's cute." Malia gave, crossing her arms over her chest and not taking her eyes off of Lily's. Just act disinterested, it'll be all over soon.

Scott made grabby - hands once Theo had burped her and done all that normal baby shit. Honestly, Scott looked like a child himself in that moment "Can I hold her?"

Theo gave a small nod, handing her over to Scott. Does he wanna let his daughter go? Fuck no, he'd much rather keep her safe, in his own fucking arms. But would Scott do anything to hurt her? Definitely not, so Theo will allow it this time.

Scott's smile kept getting wider and wider as he stared down into Lily's eyes, making strange little noises back at her as she made little baby sounds "I'm gonna be the best uncle, you'll see Lily." Scott whispered, booping her on the nose.

"No offence, Scott. But I think you're more of a grandad." Theo chuckled.

Scott looked up at Theo with sad puppy eyes, that to normal people may rival Liam's own, but to Theo he didn't really give a shit. And hey, even Malia found it funny!

"I'm only 2 months older than you, Theo!" Scott said, bringing the baby closer to him and whispering nonsense into her ear, as if she could actually understand what the fuck he was saying.

The commotion once again woke Liam up, and he lifted his head slightly from the pillow to see what was going on. He was pretty happy it was Scott this time, if Stiles was still here, Liam doesn't think he'd have been able to contain his anger after just waking up, and still being incredibly tired.

"Hi." Liam yawned, sitting up on the bed and wincing slightly. The cut on his stomach was healed, but it was like he could still feel it. That, and his head still felt heavy. Again, werewolf drugs are no joke.

"Hey, Liam. How're you feeling?" Scott asked, watching Theo rush to Liam's side and help him sit up properly. Theo had a soft side, but it was only for Liam. And it was also covered by his shitty mask.
