A Misread Lullaby{Stiles Stilinski}

Chapter Thirteen

~Stiles

The drive back to my place is quiet.

Not even the comfortable silence. The awkward silence.

And I'm honestly angry because she's supposed to be my girlfriend,  yet she didn't even tell me about her dad. It's like she's keeping a whole different side of her a secret.  And for what?  I told her about my mom,  & I never talk about her. Only Scott & Lydia know.

"So you wanna tell me about your dad? Or is that a secret that you can't even tell your boyfriend?"

"Stiles," She says, voice breaking & everything,  looking at me. I look at her & she's in tears. "Please don't start now."

I wanna be mad, I really do, but I can't.  She needs me right now.

We finally get to my place & go inside. When we get inside, we go to my room & I give her something to sleep in. "Thank you." She says taking it. She doesn't even go to the bathroom,  she just changes there.

Right in front of me.

And the view is amazing.

I snap out of it & change into sweats, leaving my shirt off.

"Stiles,"

"Yeah?"

"He did...things to me. That's what happened."  She bluntly says.

For the first time in my life, I'm speechless.

I go over & sit next to her on my bed. "I'm so sorry.."

"I wasn't planing to tell you until the time was right. And even when we did..ya know, I didnt want you to think I didn't want to because I do..but I'm just afraid. Ive never told anyone about what happened & I wasn't planning on falling for you & I thought if I told you you'd leave me & I really didn't want that. We've been dating for a short time now but you've made them the best days of my life & I just...please don't leave me, Stiles. I know it's gross be-" "I love you." I say interrupting her. I had to stop her from rambling all freaking night.

"You-you do?"

"Yes, I do." I say kissing her. She lays back on the bed & I start kissing her harder.

When I let go, I look her eyes. "I'm not going anywhere."

The next morning,  since it being the weekend,  we go back to her place so she can shower.

"Thank God, your home." Her brother says hugging her. She doesn't hug back.

"Thanks for taking care of her Stiles." He says looking at me. She pushed him away & pulls me upstairs.

"I'm gonna shower." She says pulling stuff out her closet & going into her adjoined bathroom.

I look around her room & see a little notebook on her desk. I open it & scan the pages. I notice a song, I'm guessing.(I own nothing..lyrics credit goes to Green Day & WTK)

"Starry nights,

city lights coming down over me.

Skyscrapers & stargazers in my head.

Are we we are,

are we we are the waiting unknown.

This dirty town was burning down in my dreams

Lost and found city bound in my dreams.."

I keep flipping through pages & I see a song, again,  I'm assuming, called "Sad Song,"

"Without you in my life, I'm just a sad song.."

I read the rest of the lyrics & they are amazing.  But I wonder who she's talking about.

"What are you doing?" I hear a voice say. I turn around & she's standing there, dressed, brushing her wet hair.

"I uhh..did you write all these?" I ask holding up the book.

"Give it to me, Stiles." She says walking over to me but I hold it in the air. It's so cute when she tries to jump for it.

"Who did you write Sad Song about?" I ask. She keeps trying get it, then finally gives up.

"It's about you, okay?"

"Me? Why me?"

"Because, you're just Stiles. You make everything better. You make me smile...I'd just be sad if I didn't have you in my life."

It's official.

I'm in love with Ember Clark.
