(Lydia POV)
"Come on Lyds, you gotta go." Scott insisted. I fixed my dress in the mirror and sighed.
"I don't know Scott. It feels wrong to go to the dance without Stiles. He just died like a week ago and going out to have fun seems disrespectful. "
Scott looked around my messy room.
"Lydia you've been locked up in here for too long. I know you're mourning Stiles but you need to get out. Get some fresh air."
I was still hesitant. Scott tried one last thing to get me to go.
"Come on. You know he would've loved to see you in this dress. And I bet right now he's up in heaven hoping you come with me so he can see you smiling and having fun. You know that's what he would've wanted."
I took one last look at myself and gave in.
"Okay fine. But it's gonna be awkward without a date."
Scott furrowed his brow.
"How do you not have a date? Every guy in school asked you out."
"I know. But I turned them all down. I wanted to go to this dance with Stiles. And without him I don't want to go at all."
I was starting to change my mind again. I didn't want to go anymore. Scott thought of a way to get me to go to the dance.
"Well what if you go with me?"
"What? But you're going with Kira."
Scott shrugged.
"I'll tell her I can't because I'm going with a special friend. She'll understand. "
I turned to Scott and wrapped my arms around his torso.
"Thanks Scott. I love you."
Scott wrapped his strong arms around me.
"I love you too. Now let's get going."
We walked out to the car and posed for pictures. Then off we went.
...
I was having no fun at the dance. Scott was doing his best to cheer me up like the amazing little puppy he is but I was still lost in my own world of depression. Everything I saw reminded me of Stiles. The lights shine like his eyes, Scott's suit was the color of his hair, the songs echoed his upbeat personality, and I saw him in every star outside. I couldn't get him out of my head. I wanted to be with him. I needed to be with him. But he was never coming back. A dark and troubled thought crossed my mind. Normally, something like that wouldn't even pop into my brain. And if it did, is completely ignore it. But now, it seemed right.
Maybe I should  go be with him.
I was staring off and I didn't even realize. Malia saw me. She scoffed.
"Wow Lydia. Even I'm over his death. Stop moping around and being so pathetic all the time."
That was it. That was the last straw. I went over to Scott and kissed his cheek.
"I love you and thank you for everything. You're the greatest and I couldn't have asked for anyone better to be my best friend. Goodbye."
I rushed out of there before Scott could even respond. I ran up the stairs and to the roof. As I opened the roof top door, a gust of wind hit me.
This was it for me.
I walked to the edge and stood up on the ledge. My knee length dress blew back in the wind. I looked out at the skyline. Everything was quite and peaceful. I hugged my arms close to me and started to lean forward. As soon as my feet left the platform, I felt strong arms wrap around my waist and pull me back. We both fell backwards onto the concrete. The arms didn't let go of me, but I was fine with that. I knew who those arms belonged to.
It was Scott.
We just sat there and cried. Scott kissed my temple and hugged he tighter.
"Don't you ever try to do that again. If lost you, stiles, and Allison I'd lose my mind as well."
I leaned back into his chest and just let out all the sadness I had been holding in. Some other students were starting to gather around to see what was happening. Kira rushed up the stairs and sat next to me, holding my hand. Finally, coach broke through the crowd and found us.
"McCall what on earth are you doing up here in the middle of the...oh." He stopped when he saw me. He looked at the ledge, then back at me.
"Lydia were you going to jump?" He asked, seemingly shocked.
"Yeah coach that was kind of obvious." Scott told him. Coach looked down in despair.
"Is this because of Bilinski?"
I was to shaken up to speak. So I just nodded. I couldn't even correct him.
Coach ended up driving me to the hospital where I stayed for a 24 hour suicide watch. But I wasn't planning on trying that again. I found out who my real friends were. The ones who'd pull me back when I went off the edge. I learned to cope with the loss of Stiles everyday. It's been hard but I'm getting better everyday. And Stiles was still with me. I kept a picture of him in a locket that never left my neck.
That way, he was always right next to my heartbeat where he should be. He'd never leave me, just like he promised.
