I woke up the next morning with an arm around me. Lydia left shortly after that incident last night, but Liam insisted on staying with me the whole night. He wouldn't even let go of me. Oh how I love him.

I sat up slowly trying not to wake him, but failed. He let go of me and rubbed his eyes.

"Um. What time is it?", he asked. I looked at the clock.

"Almost 9". I sat up and put my hair in a bun. Liam started dragging his fingers up and down me arm.

"I'm going to take a shower. Okay?", I told him. He just nodded. Before I closed the bathroom Liam called out to me, "I love you".

"I love you too".

Liam's POV

I layed back down and stared at the ceiling. Then all of a sudden my phone rang. I looked at it to see who it was.

It was Scott.

"Hello?"

"Hey Liam. Kira found Brett. They're fine"

"More assassins?"

"Maybe a lot more"

"Different to the ones who tried to set us on fire?"

"I think so, yeah"

I paused and sighed. "I'm not like you"

"Not yet"

"I don't mean I'm not strong or never going to learn to be in control. I mean everything else. You and your friends trying to protect everyone. Have you been doing this the whole time? I mean, how are all of you, still alive?"

"Not all of us are", he stopped and sighed, "I have to go Liam. Bye".

I hung up the phone and set it on the table next to me. I heard the water stop, which i'm guessing Lexi was finished. Seconds later she opened the bathroom door with only a towel wrapped around her.

"Um. I need to grab my clothes", she said with a smile, and walked over to her closet.

 Man do I love her.

Lexi's POV

Liam left a couple minutes later. Saying that he had to help Scott with Brett or something. I wanted to tag along but Stiles and Malia wanted me to help them at the boat house.

I was standing in the study while Stiles was face-timeing Lydia to figure out how to stop the deadpool. A little while ago I arrived to see Stiles pulling a cord out of the wall and out came the Benefactor.  Then I heard Lydia explain something, so I turned around to listen.

"The ashes weren't ashes. The study isn't a study. The record player isn't a record player. So maybe the wine wasn't wine", she stated.

"Lexi, go grab a 1982 Cotes du Rhone", I ran to the kitchen and grabbed it, and made my way back to the study. I shook the bottle. "I think there's something stuck", I said.

Malia grabbed the bottle and smashed it to the ground. And on the floor was a key. I grabbed the key and walked up to the machines. I took a breath and stuck the key in and turned it. And everything stopped.

We did it... We stopped the Benefactor.

It's all over.
