I was woken up by the shifting of the bed. I opened my eyes and found Scott standing at the side of the bed.
"Good morning," I said sleepily with a smile.
Scott leans down and presses a gentle kiss to my forehead. "Good morning beautiful." He sits on the side of the bed so he was looking down at me. "How did you sleep?"
"I slept great. What time is it?"
"7:20. I figured you'd like to sleep a little longer before school."
I grab his hands and tug gently. "Come lay down."
"You'll never go to school if I do. I'll fall asleep and you'll be trapped in my arms."
I sit up so that we were eye level and stretch. "Fine. Let's get ready for school."
"I'm not going." He gestures to his jaw. "My mom doesn't want people blowing the story out of proportion. The police are already handling everything. We're working on a restraining order."
I wrap my arms around his shoulders. "Good. I don't want him anywhere near you."
"I'm ok. I'll be ok. You don't have to worry." He quickly kisses my cheek. "I love you. Which is why I can't let you be late to school."
I groan and say "I don't wanna go. It'll be terrible if you're not there."
He chuckles and says "You'll be fine. You'll have Stiles and Lydia." He glances at the clock and turns to me with a soft smile. "You get ready while I make you pancakes."
"Fine, but I'm not gonna enjoy school."
"I'm not making you go alone. Everyone at school loves you. Just don't fall for another guy while I'm gone."
I smirk and shrug. "I don't know. There are a lot of cute guys and I am irresistible."
Scott shakes his head and says "Maybe I should let you stay here all day."
I laugh and kiss the tip of his nose quickly. "You're the best boyfriend ever."
"You make it easy." He stands slowly and kisses my hand. "I can't let you miss school. I'll be back as soon as this bruise goes away."
"Good. Does it hurt?" I gently glide my hand across it which causes him to wince. "I'll take that as a yes. You should ice it."
"I think a kiss would help too." He looked so cute that I couldn't help but place a gentle kiss on his bruise. He winces but smiles. "I'm already feeling better."
I stand and he leaves to go make breakfast. I joined him downstairs and argued with him when he said he wasn't hungry. He ate some of my pancakes before I left though so I was happy.
When I got to school, I saw Lydia waiting at my locker. Seeing her there made me happy. It was nice not fighting with her anymore. I missed talking to her and hanging out with her. I gave her a quick hug before starting to pack for the day.
"I figured you'd be with Scott last night so I told your parents you were spending the night there with me and Melissa."
"Thanks. I really appreciate it."
"I'm just trying to be a good best friend." She slowly leans against the locker beside mine. "How's he doing?"
She sounded so weak and scared. I'd never heard Lydia sound so worried. Her tone reminded me that she and Scott didn't just date, they were much more than that. They were best friends. They shared secrets and memories. They leaned on each other in their darkest times. They were each other's strength. She was nervously playing with the sleeves of Stiles' sweater. Lydia Martin is confident, but looking at her now you would think she was the shyest person to ever live.
