BEFORE RUNNING TESTS ON LILY, DR CHASE HAD TO ASK HER A FEW QUESTIONS. He had to interview her, which made him feel uneasy. His only hope was for the interview to be over soon. Take deep breaths, he repeated to himself. He felt extreme heat, and fanned himself with his shirt neck, you're a doctor, act like one.

Lily shifted uncomfortably on her seat, glancing quickly at the doctor, who started sweating. She finally gave up from resisting and asked, "Why did you save me? Why did you even try?"

Dr Chase seemed taken aback by the question, "Pardon me?"

"Why did you even try saving me?" Lily asked again, growing impatient, and soon started feeling nervous as well.

Because you remind me of Daisy. Because I feel a connection with you.

"I'm a doctor. Aren't I supposed to try?" Dr Chase narrowed his eyes at her.

"But why did you feel so guilty afterwards?" She asked back, narrowing her eyes and leaning forwards.

"Why is that your business?" He leaned forward as well.

They stared and narrowed their eyes even more at each other. It was a stare war. Dr Chase gulped as his eyes starting stinging, and finally blinked.

Lily smiled and leaned backwards, then shook her grin off and grew serious. "Really, though. Why?"

Dr Chase knew he wouldn't be able to avoid the question. He took a shaky breath and talked "When I was twenty I had a lovely daughter. Two months after she was born, she had a horrible seizure, like yours," Dr Chase rubbed his nose with his hand, "She died."

Lily took a breath. How was it, that such a strong looking doctor, was broken inside? Losing a daughter must be worse than losing a part of your body, it just be like losing a part of your heart, of your soul.

"It's silly, I just thought that by saving you, I'd be saving her, I don't know."

"Like saving her soul?"

The doctor looked up at her, giving her a small grin, "yeah. Yeah."

AS SOON AS SCOTT HEARD HIS MOM SAY "LILAC SKY IS BACK FROM THE DEAD (WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON?)" HE KNEW HE HAD TO TELL STILES. It was fair for him to know what had happened to his love. Scott knew from the beginning Lily must've been really important to him.

"You're kidding right?" Stiles asked Scott, who just shook his head. "That's not- that's,"

"Possible." Scott interrupted, grabbing Stiles' shoulder and giving him a small grin, "She's alive."

LILAC RECEIVED HER PHONE BACK AND WAS REALLY HAPPY. As soon as she put in all the codes, she was flooded with emails, snapchats, and messages. She opened her snaps but didn't answer. She opened her emails and eliminated all the junk and spam. She opened her messages and her breathing stopped for a slight moment when she read all of Stiles' texts.

Including the last one: it should have been me.

TEXTING

Me: don't ever say that.

Stiles: lily? Is that really you?

Stiles: you're supposed to be dead

Me: you're supposed to know no one stays dead in this town.

Stiles: Scott and I are on our way.

Me: good to know.

Stiles: Scott asks how Dr Chase is treating you.

Me: he's a nice lad.

Stiles: oh ok.

Me: stiles, how's Malia?

Stiles: she's.. Okay

Me: you're still together?

Stiles: In a way...

Me: how's theo?

Stiles: he fell in a hole, to like, hell?

Me: wow.

Stiles: did you see the light?

Me: no. It was pure darkness. Heaven is a lie.

Sup kiddos? How's life? I'm so sorry I haven't updated in so long! But I'm back.
