The Lost McCall Twin(hiatus)

Chapter 8:

Narrator's POV
It's been 3 weeks since the winter formal.
Lydia had woken up 2 weeks after the winter formal, then soon escaped through the window of her two-story room at the hospital, and had ran through the woods for 2 days straight naked. Soon she was found and brought back to the hospital where she was cleared. Then she had gone back to school with the help of Allison, but the two girls visited Riley ever day after school and all day on the weekends.
Riley, was still in a coma.
When Stiles got back from his adventure with Peter, his father was over the top mad at him.
Not only did Stiles leave Riley alone at the formal, him leaving her caused her to be in this coma.
Stiles hasn't left her bedside since, they tried getting him to go to school, but he wouldn't listen.
Stiles barely ate, barely drank, barely ate anything, and barely slept. He kept on thinking if he closed his eyes, she would be gone again.
Scott was over the top pissed, his best friend left his twin sister alone. Scott thinks it's his own fault that his sister is in a coma, because he could've stopped Peter sooner, but he didn't.
Scott has tried to get his best friend to eat and sleep, but there was no use.
The doctors said that the bite had healed and that she was fine, yet she hasn't woken up yet.
~~
"C'mon Riley." Stiles mumbled, leaning his head against the bed that Riley was currently laying in.
Yet there was no answer.
Every day since she was bitten, Stiles would talk to her as if she were alive.
At first, it concerned the doctors. They thought he was talking to himself.
Then after Scott and his mother explained to the doctors that Stiles had just gotten Riley back, and then she was ripped out of his hands.
They understood completely and let him be.
"C'mon Stiles, you have to eat something." Lydia said quietly, coming in with a takeout bag full of curly fries and a cheeseburger, his favorite meal.
"I'm not hungry." Yet he didn't want it, if Riley couldn't have anything to eat, he doesn't want anything either.
Lydia sighs, placing the bag on the table in the corner of the room.
She walked over to him and sat next to him.
"Stiles, I know you miss her. We all miss her a lot. But we are all still alive. I'm so sorry about this, it should be me in that coma and not her. She doesn't deserve this, her life was just turning back to normal after 5 years." Lydia said to him.
"Lydia, it should not be you in that coma. It should be neither of you. I'm so sorry I let this happen." Stiles mumbled to her, his voice barely audible but she somehow heard it.
"It's not your fault. But Stiles, if Riley was awake, she would want you to be eating and sleeping. She would want you to go to school and live a normal life until she wakes up. I know you miss her, I can tell you like her a lot, but you should not dwell on how you should've saved her. You should dwell on how she's alive, and how she's healthy." Lydia said to him.
He nodded.
"I have to go, my mom wants me home. I'm coming back tomorrow with food Stiles. And you better be ready to eat some." She said, giving him a pointed look which he nods to.
She leaves the room and Stiles rests his head in his hands.
Stiles' POV
"C'mon Riley, please. Please for me. I n-need you, I can't stand to see you laying there lifeless. I need you to wake up so I can hug you and tell you that everything will be okay." I said to her, tears threatening to spill over.
I put my head into my hands and silently cried. I haven't cried since my mom died, but I guess Riley just has that affect on me.
That's when I heard groans, I thought it was coming from outside of the room, but it wasn't. I stood up, looking around the room, trying to find out what was making that noise, but found nothing.
"Riley?" I mumbled.
"Mmmhh." She groaned.
"Riley!!" I shouted.
I ran to her and hugged her to me tightly.
I felt her smile into my neck.
~~
I called in the doctors and nurses and they immediately rushed in and checked her vitals and everything just to make sure she's fully healthy.
Soon they left and Melissa, Scott, Allison, Lydia, and my dad all came in.
They said hi to her and they talked for a while as Riley and I hugged still.
Soon everyone left and the doctors said that I'm allowed to sleep with her in here for tonight because she wants someone to keep an eye on her.
~~
It was now 11:45pm and visiting hours ended over an hour ago.
"Did you mean everything you said to me?" She mumbled to me as we laid there.
"Yes, I did Riley. Every last word." I replied softly.
She smiled.
I kissed her forehead.
"I'm so glad you're okay." I mumbled into her hair.
"Me too Stiles, me too." She whispered.
Soon I heard her steady, even breathes and knew she had fallen asleep.
I shifted and got comfortable before slowly laying Riley on my chest and held her close to me.
I laid like this for what seems like forever, but was only a few minutes, just thinking about everything that has happened in the last few weeks.
And I'm glad it did, even though I wish that Riley wouldn't have gone through this. I'm sort of glad she did, because it made both of us 10 times closer than we were before the winter formal. And just thinking about being close with Riley made me smile.
Soon, I fell asleep to the sound of Riley's steady breathing.
