A small groaning noise came from the couch.
Peter's eyes fluttered open. His head and body ached with intense pain.
"What happened?" Peter grunted. He was unsure of where he was.
"We were hoping you could tell us." Derek wandered to his Uncle's side.
"I.." Peter had a flash. He saw his Alpha beast surrounded by darkness. "I... was here, on the couch reading. The lights, and then darkness. Something... something was..." His eyes grew wide.
"What Peter? What did you see?" Derek knelt down to Peter's eye level.
"In the corner of my eye, something was moving. All around me was pitch black darkness when I saw.. myself. I saw the Alpha beast in front of me. I felt like I was being burned alive again. I couldn't move.. I couldn't... but then I heard a voice, it was beautiful." His hand was shaking.
"That was Lydia. You screamed her name and she heard you. She came here and found you on the floor completely out of your mind. She used sang a Siren's Song in order to put you to sleep because you were going out of your mind and you were hurting her." Derek informed.
"Lydia..? Where is she, where." Peter sat up in a panic.
Derek pointed over his shoulder to his bed, "She is safe and sleeping. She used up a lot of energy."
"Yeah saving your sorry psychotic ass." Stiles shouted from the other side of the room.
Peter raised an eyebrow.
"They know." Derek pointed out.
"Shit. That is just great." Peter held his head in pain. He went to swing his legs off the couch but was stayed by Derek's hand.
"No, you need to rest."
"Let me see her. I need to see Lydia, now." Peter was desperate to make sure that Lydia was truly okay. He sat up and tried to stand but he fell onto his knees after taking steps towards her.
Derek rolled his eyes knowing that Peter was far too stubborn to listen to reason at this point. He and Cora slipped Peter's arm over their shoulders and supported his weight as they hobbled with Peter over to Derek's bed. Carefully putting Peter on the bed with Lydia.
Instantly Peter was curled against Lydia shape in a protective way. His pain almost disappeared the moment he touched her skin.
The group looked on quietly at how worryingly agonized Peter was about Lydia and how desperate he was to make sure she was safe.
In that moment, watching him, Scott, Stiles and Allison were hit with the gravity of how deeply Peter cared for Lydia.
Derek quickly curled a finger signaling for everyone to leave. Quietly he pulled them out of the loft and rolled the heavy door shut.
Lovingly and carefully Peter smoothed his fingers across Lydia's bandaged arm. He did not remember hurting her and he was furious with himself that he hurt her. He broke his promise to her and he would never forgive himself.
The promise he made to her that he would never hurt her was extremely sacred to him. After what he did to her before, the first thing after she forgave him was promise to never hurt her in any way again and he broke that tonight.
"I am so sorry." He whispered gently in her ear. "I love you so much and I am sorry I hurt you. I never meant..." He could feel himself getting emotional. Only Lydia would ever see him cry.
A small hum came from her lips as she stirred. "Peter?"
Peter's eye lit up as much as they could with the state his body was in, "Yes, I am right here."
"I just discovered that I can sing people to sleep." She mumbled and yawned, "I am amazing." She fell back asleep.
Peter laughed, "Yes you are." He kissed her cheek, "You are so amazing."
