What if it wasn't Lydia's dad that ran out on her but her mom? What if she moves away due to a death that will haunt her forever? What if she falls in love with someone she shouldn't have?What if..?
A Stefan salvatore/Lydia martin story
Teen wolf/Va...
Lydia woke up slowly, stretching her arms and legs before cuddling back into Stefan's chest as a low chuckled vibrated from his chest.
"Good morning Lydia" he whispered, wrapping his arms around her waist. Lydia smiled nuzzled in closer, she had woken up several times during the night due to nightmares but Stefan had calmed her down enough to give her the courage to fall asleep again, even if it didn't last long. "Good morning steffy boo" she mumbled in a baby voice, the pain medication obviously still in effect. Stefan just let out another chuckle, even when she was loaded up on medication she was still the cutest thing he had ever seen.
Lydia sat up, her muscles aching and her neck throbbing, Stefan had gotten out of the bed as well, making his way over to her side. Once he got over to her he stopped, Lydia got nervous. Her wound had bled through the bandage slightly and well everyone knows how good Stefan is with his blood lust so she stared at him carefully. She got really nervous when the veins started to crawl out from under his eyes, as he got closer to her. Lydia wanted to back up but her body was frozen, he wouldn't hurt her would he? A huge wave of relief and pride washed over Lydia as she watched the veins disappear.
"I'll go find someone to clean that up-" Stefan started but Lydia stopped him by pressing her lips to his firmly. As she pulled away, Stefan looked at her kind of confused. "That's for controlling the hunger and not killing me" she whispered jokingly, Stefan smiled and rolled his eyes at her, she is the last person on earth he would ever hurt. Kissing her head once more he left to find a doctor.
After the doctor fixed her up, she was allowed to leave. Stefan had made sure no one got too close to Lydia and as much as she loved how he wanted to protect her, it was a little embarrassing. When Stefan ran ahead to hold the door open for her, she apologized to the man Stefan had "moved out of the way" before catching up to Stefan. They pulled up to the boarding house and Lydia immediately tensed up, what if Elena was there, what if she tried killing her again? Stefan grabbed her hand in reassurance, he didn't know if Elena had her humanity on yet, once he heard Lydia all his attention was on her. The voices of their friends were heard inside, he was worried about bringing her inside mostly because he hadn't told anyone about Lydia's near death experience.
"Let's go..I think I hear Caroline and I know she won't be happy that I didn't answer her calls so let's just just get it over with" she spoke quietly, not much confidence in her voice. Stefan kissed her hand before they both got out of the car, Lydia adjusted the jacket she wore so it covered her bandage, she didn't want to explain it to everyone yet. As soon as the door opened all voices stopped, all eyes were on the two who had just entered the house. Elena was sitting on the couch, Lydia knew she would start apologizing but Lydia didn't know what to do, Elena always seemed to hurt her even if she didn't mean too. Lydia knew that she had her humanity off and that she didn't have any control but Lydia was tired of Elena hurting her.
Lydia walked in slowly, Stefan closed the door and stood next to her. Caroline stood up and immediately ran to hug her, she didn't ask any questions but the look on Lydia's face was enough to make Caroline force her questions down for later. Lydia hugged back, Stefan touched her back letting her know he was going to sit down and grab a drink. Caroline let go and smiled happily at the strawberry blonde before heading back to her spot. Elena stood up and Lydia tensed, she didn't really want to talk to anyone at the moment, she just wanted to lay in bed cuddling with Stefan.
"Lydia I'm-" Elena started, but Lydia cut her off. "I don't want to hear it Elena, not right now at least. I just want to go lay down" Lydia spoke quietly but confidently. Elena tried again but Lydia wasn't having it. "Elena stop. Please just leave me alone right now." Lydia snapped, Elena nodded before walking into the kitchen, Damon stood up confused.
"What the hell lydia? She just got her humanity back on and you start yelling at her, she's going through a lot right now" Damon said angrily, Stefan was about to say something but he saw the anger in Lydia's eyes and as much as he wanted to stop her, Damon kind of deserves it. "She's going through a hard time? Are you kidding me Damon?! We all are, what the hell makes her "hard time" so much more important that the rest of ours?!!" Lydia spoke angrily, her voice rising slowly. "She just lost her brother Lydia, I'm sure you would feel the same if you lost yours" he yelled back, Lydia was going to explode.

"My mother was just murdered, my brother is running for his life, I've lost people too Damon but that doesn't mean I'm gonna shove it down everyone's throats" Lydia seethed, Damon walked closer to her while Stefan sat up straight ready to stop him. "Why are you acting like this? What has Elena done that has made you treat her like this?" He asked with a shout of anger. That was it, she exploded. "BECAUSE YOUR FUCKING GIRLFRIEND ALMOST KILLED ME!!!" She yelled back, her face turning red, her wound pulsing as her blood boiled. She ripped off the jacket to show everyone the bandage, everyone gasped while Damon stood there confused.
"Yesterday while you were too busy snapping Matt's neck, I was bleeding out in the ditch beside you. Stefan heard me and fed me his blood when he saw the condition I was in..." she spoke quieter, her anger subsiding a little. "I was so close to death that I was about to scream, Stefan's blood only healed me a little because I coughed up the rest when the scream bubbled up. He got me to the hospital and the doctors fixed me up, he stayed with me the night and when I got here I was hoping that I would get to go straight to bed and fall asleep with my boyfriend but no, instead I am yelled at for not wanting to talk to someone who has hurt me so many times. I'm tired of people hurting me...I have a voice but I can't use that for everything.." Lydia trailed off, she looked back at Stefan and smiled. "As soon as I am better you are going to help me learn how to protect myself, but right now I'm am going to sleep and it would make me really happy if you came too" she said pointing at Stefan. He smiled before downing the rest of his drink, following the strawberry blonde. "It was nice seeing you all again and I will take to you later" she said turning around quickly one last time, Caroline and Matt let out a little chuckle at her sudden mood change. Elena walked back into the room with a glass of water in her hand, she sent a small smile to Lydia that showed how sorry she was for everything she's done to her, she knew that Lydia didn't want to talk yet and she respected that, she would wait until she did want to, she just wanted her friend back.
Stefan took off his shirt and crawled into the bed, pulling the covers over his stomach as he watched Lydia try brushing through her matted hair. Groan slightly as she pulled a leaf out of her hair she gave up, placing her brush on the table. "I'll shower later but right now I just want sleep.." Lydia mumbled crawling up next to Stefan. He wrapped his arms around her, placing his forehead against hers and closing his eyes. Lydia pecked his lips smiling once more before closing her eyes as well. Tomorrow will be interesting..
