I see you - A Stydia AU

Chapter 4

She is Lydia Martin. God knows what she's been through in her life, so what's a little heartbreak? Lydia didn't cry. Pulling Jackson and Allison to an empty classroom instead of going back to her dorm, she told them what happened and that was it. She allowed herself to be comforted by them only enough to make her feel a little better. When she figured she'd be able to walk out of that classroom and face everyone out there, Lydia left, trailed closely by Jackson to find her next class.

Allison, on the other hand, wandered by herself in the hallways until she found them. Scott is not sure whether to feel intimidated or turned on by Allison's fierceness as she walks towards the three of them, determined. The boys even take a step back.

Allison raises one hand because Scott was about to say something and she'd better not hear him say anything right now, or she'll end up getting mad at him too. "I don't wanna hear you," she says, "nor you," she points at Danny. She takes a step forward until she's right in front of Stiles and points an accusatory finger at him. "What the fuck was that for?"

Stiles stutters. "A- Ally, it's not what you think." He has gotten closer with Allison these past few days and he likes her, so it hurts him that he let her down as well.

"I trusted you, you ass. I actually thought you two had something, how stupid am I?"

His heart falters at the girl's words. Why does everyone keep seeing that there's something between him and Lydia? "I'm sorry, alright? I didn't mean to hurt her. Allison, I would never, but you don't understand, you don't know..."

"Cut the crap, Stiles, I don't need your apologies. You shouldn't have done that, it was wrong on so many levels... And she's Lydia. Why would you do that to her?"

"I- I don't know..." But he does. He could have chosen any girl, but maybe, deep down, he just wanted to know how it felt like with the strawberry blonde. Scott and Danny have walked away by now. Face an angry Allison? No, thank you. Stiles sits on one of the nearest benches and Allison follows him, sitting at his side.

"Again, you're an ass. She has never had anyone and you go and do that to her? What were you even thinking?"

"Wait, what?" He looks at her with wide eyes and it's like Allison's color has vanished from her face and she's completely livid. She shouldn't have said that. "She never had a boyfriend? Are you serious? Lydia Martin?" he asks, both curious and mortified.

"She has never even kissed anyone, Stiles," the brunette lets out. Even though it feels like she's betraying her friend, he should know about this. "Her choice, not anyone else's. Even if this wasn't the case, you still shouldn't have done it. You two seemed like you had a thing going on." She smacks him in the arm. "Why would you go and ruin it, dumbass?"

"I know I shouldn't have, okay?" His hands run through his hair nervously. "But it wasn't a stupid dare or a game, Allison. You don't know about..."

The bell rings and Allison gets up immediately; she thought they had more time. Her next class is on the other side of the Academy so she'll have to run. "Listen, I don't care why you did it. It might have been a good reason or a shitty one, I honestly don't think I could care less. You have to make this right, Stiles, or you'll have to deal with me." Turning around, she leaves.

Stiles doesn't move right away. Instead, he takes deep breaths and runs his hands through his hair a few times. He screwed up, he knows that. When the hell did everything in his life get so twisted?

He doesn't move until Scott and Danny get to him and have to urge him to get to class or things might get even worse.
