Life of A Pregnant Banshee

Chapter 17

"Stiless!" We've been at this for 3 hours now. 

"I'm here Lydia, I'm not going anywhere" Stiles says holding my hand. 

"How much longer?" I say to anyone. 

"You're fully dilated we're going to get you to start pushing" Melissa says 

"Stiles! Where is everyone?" I say 

"Everyone's okay, we all made it Lydia. Brett, Theo and Liam are at the hospital entrance, Derek and Chris are at the end of the corridor, Malia and Allison are outside, Scott and Isaac are running the perimeter and my dad is in the waiting room with Parrish. Its okay they aren't touching this baby" He says. 

"Lydia push" Melissa says. I scream gripping Stiles hands possibly breaking most of his bones. 

"You can do it baby, You can do this" Stiles says kissing my temple 

"One more Lydia" Melissa says. I gather what strength I have left and I push, screaming. Soft cries then fill the room. 

"Melissa?" Stiles says

"You have a perfectly healthy baby girl" She says. I smile and Melissa places her on my chest. The baby opens her eyes and stares at me with the bluest eyes. 

"Lyds, we did that" Stiles says taking the babies hand. She wraps her fingers around his finger. "I love you both" 

"We love you too" I whisper leaning my head back admiring her, she has strawberry blonde locks on her head. 

"Ariel" I say looking at Stiles. "Ariel Claudia Stilinski" He nods wiping some tears from his eyes. 

"Ill go and tell everyone the news" Melissa says excusing herself. The nurse takes Ariel and cleans her up as another nurse helps me into another gown. Stiles watching over Ariel. The nurse hands her back to him. He cradles her walking back to me. 

"She's so small" Stiles whispers rocking her gently. He sits at the edge of the bed and we sit in utter silence watching Ariel's eyes dart around the room. There's a soft knock on the door and Stiles dad pops his head in. 

"Hey Dad, come on in" Stiles says. He comes in and Stiles stands up handing her to him. "Meet your granddaughter Ariel Claudia Stilinski" 

"Her middle name?" He says. 

"Lydia chose it" Stiles says smiling over at me. 

"You did good kids, you did good" He says smiling. I smile back at him. The door opens abruptly and Scott runs in. 

"They're here" Scott says. Stiles takes Ariel from his dad and hands her back to me. He kisses my temple. 

"No!" I say. "Scott get Allison. We go with the plan" Scott pleads with me with his eyes. "It's the only way" He nods and leaves. Stiles looks at me. 

"What plan?" Stiles says. 

"Allison and you are going to take Ariel far from here. Deaton made a cure for you. You can be human again. I know that's what you want. You talk in your sleep Stiles. I hand him the vial. 

"But what about you?" He says. Tears spill down my cheeks. 

"I can't come, at least as a human you can protect her with a low profile" I say. 

"Lydia..." Stiles says tears falling down his face. 

"It's the only way please" He nods and drinks the vial. He drops to the floor and he glows brightly. It stops and he tries to transform but he can't. "Stiles?" He takes a needle from the side and scratches his skin and it doesn't heal.

"It worked" He says. Allison comes in the door with two bags. Tears in her own eyes. 

"Mummy loves you Ariel, I will find you when this is all over I promise. Look after Daddy please" I kiss her head and hand her to Stiles. 

"Lydia..." Stiles says "Come with us please" 

"I can't not yet. I love you Stiles Stilinski" 

"I love you Lydia Stilinski" 

"Go...please" He nods and kisses me once more. Before walking out of the room and looking back one last time. I welcome the tears and curl up crying. Looking at the rings on my finger. 

"Goodbye baby girl"
