Stydia stories.

Senior Prom

'Are you ready?' Mum said as I was staring at my image in the mirror. After everything that had happened that year it was crazy that I was here at all. I smiled and turned around.
'Yeah, ready.' She smiled at me and by the look on her face I knew she was thinking the same thing.
'Everyone is downstairs waiting for you, come on' she said offering me her arm to hold on which I thankfully accepted and taking my clutch we headed downstairs and I heard the voices, the voices of my friends. I saw Kira wearing a beautiful black dress holding Scott's hand. He was wearing a tux and looked at her with nothing but love in his eyes. Then there was Malia looking very uncomfortable with her high heels but beautiful nonetheless with a short creamy dress and then there was him, Stiles, looking at me as I was coming down the stairs. It reminded me to our first prom when he came to pick me up and I was so embarrassed to even going with him but it turned to be the best decision I ever made. He was wearing a black tux with a blue bow tie and his beautiful smile. When I finally got down everyone turned to look at me and smiled.
'Now that you're all here, get together for a picture!' said mum smiling. I laughed and made my way to where the pack was standing.
'I love your dress!' said Kira smiling. I thanked her laughing because after all we went to get them together with Malia because she wanted to wear jeans and I couldn't have that. Not at our senior prom.
'Okay guys, say "Beacon Hills"' said mum and we all did, laughing. She took the picture and took another two just in case.
'Okay now that we have proof that I was wearing this awful shoes I'm going to change' said Malia changing her shoes to a pair of black converse that surprisingly didn't look that bad with the dress and she looked much more herself.
'Better?' Stiles said 'At least now you can stop complaining about how much they felt like one of your dad's traps' he laughed and she threw him a killer look that made all of us laugh.
'Okay guys it's time, let's go' said Scott. We laughed because it was true; we were going to be late if we didn't leave. I kissed mum goodbye and we headed out to find a black limo waiting for us at the door. I looked back and saw mum smiling. 'Have fun' she said and we all screamed back to her that we would.

After a long ride we finally got to Beacon Hills High School. The parking lot was full and there were loads of students waiting to get in. We thanked the driver and got out one by one. I was the last one because I had been the first one to get in. I pulled up my dress to not rip it somehow and I saw someone's hand offering help. It was Stiles' and I took it.
'This was so much better than your Jeep don't you think?' I laughed and he looked somehow offended but I know he was joking.
'Well one thing that hasn't changed since the last prom is that I still think you look beautiful.' He said looking at me, smiling and making me blush the same way he did 3 years ago. 'Shall we?' He asked offering me his arms and i laughed. The rest of the pack was way ahead of us already so we both tried to hurry up. In our way we found Liam, Hayden, Mason and Corey arrive as well and they waved at us.
We got to the door and coach asked us for our tickets.
'Stilinski I still can't believe you convinced me to come here' he said marking our tickets.
'Come on coach, it's our last night together I know you don't want to miss it' he smiled. 'But don't start crying, you still have the respect of some of our younger players' laughed and I did as well. Truth is I loved to see Coach there because it reminded me to the days when everything was easier and there weren't any demonic murderers in town.
'Shut up and get inside Stilinski. Have a great night Miss Martin' he said smiling to me. We smiled and got inside the gym. Everything looked beautiful and very fairytale-ish.
'Let's go find everyone' I said shouting in his ear because the music was too loud for him to hear me otherwise. He nodded and we made our way through the dance floor. We found everyone sitting in one of the tables.
'So here we are' Scott said. 'After everything we went through we're finally here. We're gonna graduate and go to college and leave this town.' Although I had already thought about somehow it made me feel really sad. The thought of saying goodbye to all of them made me feel very upset.
'But let's not think about that now.' Said Kira. 'And let's go make the most of our last night in high school!' She said and we all headed to the dance floor.

After having danced for what it felt like an eternity I decided to sit down for a bit. From our table I could still see them dance and both Scott and Stiles were making fools of themselves which was beyond amusing for us. Kira was laughing at them while Malia was dancing with the young puppies of the pack. Suddenly the music slowed down and it was time for a slow dance. I saw Scott take Kira's hand and make her twirl. And while looking at them I didn't notice that there was someone standing in front of me.
'You wanna dance?' asked Stiles looking at me. 'For old times' sake?' I laughed and took his hand taking him to the dance floor. I placed my arms around his neck and smiled at him.
'For old times' sake' I mouthed and he smiled while wrapping his arms around my waist. My head was pressed against this shoulder and although he couldn't see me I was smiling. It just felt right being here like this after all.
'Hey' i said raising my head. The music wasn't very loud now so there was no point shouting. 'I wanted to thank you.'
'What for?' He said looking at me and taking one of my hands trying make me twirl but he didn't manage to do it so I laughed. He was such a dork but I loved it. 'Sorry' he laughed as he tried not to blush. 'What were you trying to thank me for?' He said as our hands were tangled and his other hand rested in my hip.
'Everything I guess.' I smiled at him and he smiled back. 'I just can't believe how much things have changed since the last time we were here, like this' I said going back to resting my head on his shoulder.
'I know. It's crazy' he said.
'Here is where everything began. I remember going after Jackson and then... Then all the bad things that happened to me started with that bite from Peter' I sighed and I felt as he wrapped me closer to him in a hug. 'But not everything was bad you know... I finally understood what real friendship is thanks to you guys and I also discovered what love it's supposed to feel like.'
'And how is that?' He said and I smiled.
'Like, you know. How a person would risk everything for you even if it meant losing himself? And how someone wouldn't just see your looks but see through you? And someone who doesn't get tired of saving your life even if you are stupid enough not to thank him for it? And you know what it feels like when that person walks into the room and everything just feels okay again. Do you know how that feels like?' I said looking at him with tears in my eyes. I blinked and shed one tear. He then smiled and whipped it away with his thumb.
'I do. It's the feeling I get when I look at you. And I will never get tired of saving your life because my life would make no sense without you in it. I'm not even upset about you not knowing that it was me who saved you the night that Peter bit you because after all you were alive and there was nothing else that mattered more.' He said and something inside me fell into place and everything suddenly made sense. It was him. It had always been him. I looked up again meeting his gaze and more tears were threatening to fall. 'I will never get tired of doing those things because I love you Lydia. I've loved you since we were kids and although I tried, i never stopped.' He smiled and my tears started to fall because I loved him too. But it wasn't fair for me to tell him now that we were both going to college and we might not see each other again but I wanted to. I wanted to tell everyone that I loved him, especially him. So I broke the distance that was separating us and kissed him. But it wasn't like last time... We were both pretty conscious of what we were doing and no one's life was at stake. I kissed him and could feel his surprise at first but also a little smile which made me profoundly happy. We broke our touch and smiled.
'I love you too' I said and I could see a little grin in his face.
'What was that? I didn't catch it' he said whispering in my ear. I rolled my eyes and said it again a bit louder just when the song stopped and the whole gym fell in silence looking at us. My face turned red and I hid it in his shoulder as he laughed loudly and I could see Scott's smile towards us.
'Happy?' I said laughing
'Oh trust me, I've never been happier' he smiled and kissed me again.
