A Soldier On My Own [Book 1]

Confrontation

Notes:

So sometimes I feel like my life goes from good to bad to shit to, why are you even here? And I don't / can't deal.

So story time.

I had this pillow that was kinda like the equivalent to a baby blanket. I had it from when I was a baby and it had that childhood smell, you know. And I sleep with it still and I never really thought much of it. Till I couldn't find it after being away from home for a week. I looked fucking everywhere and soon I go to my grandma and ask her. Uh, where's my pillow. And I love the lady but, she says, "Oh that dirty ugly thing I threw it out. it's gone." Now here I am crying my eyes out because I just lost something that I can never get back. And buying a new one does fuck all because it doesn't smell the same. I am in tears rn.

I had actually written this chapter 15 min ago but I've just been balling my eyes out and hugging my dog since she told me. So yep sad girl here.

<><><>

I pull up to my house and I grimace. I see Scott's bike. Just fucking great. I love Scott don't get me wrong but him being here now isn't helping. And OH MY GOD did the whole pack come over. I see Lydia's car and Liams. Just great.

I hop out of my car and head in, I can hear hushed whispers of,

"he's here shhh."

I walk in and I'm glaring because I have a feeling as to what's about to happen. I see Lydia, Malia, and Kira sitting together on the big couch, then Liam and Mason are also sitting next to them on the other couch. Scott is standing next to fucking Theo and my dad is glaring right back at me from the armchair.

"Stiles how come you took so long?" I sigh suddenly feeling like the coffee wasn't worth it anymore.

"I stopped for coffee on my way back, I didn't know there was gonna be a party waiting when I got back." I stood there not really wanting to be there but what was I gonna do.

"So are we just gonna stare or are you gonna say what you want to." I was tired even though I woke up only a few hours ago.

My dad stood up and asked my friends,

"I'm assuming you'll know if my son has been lying to me. Is he dating Peter?" I sighed, of course, he still didn't believe me.

Lydia spoke up, "I didn't know Stiles was gay?"

"I'm not!" I say to Lydia,

"I like girls, but he won't believe me. I'm not dating Peter I said that to get into Eichen house. I've already told you." I glare at my dad.

Scott the angel that he is says "Uh yeah Sheriff I heard him say it. It was a joke, we came up with the plan to uh, well we may have, broke in and Stiles was gonna go see Peter in the restricted section while he snuck us in. But he needed to be family and so that was the lie he came up with on the spot. I guess you just got the wrong information."

I nod to Scott, "See I told you."

I sigh (I should've shut up while I was ahead)

"So why were you hanging out on a full moon? Then and you better not tell the stupid falling down a cliff thing again. They can tell if your lying."

I glared "Oh so now their lie detectors nice dad."

Lydia asks,

"You hung out with Peter on a full moon, why?" I looked down, What the heck am I supposed to say. Uhhh, fuck sorry Peter.

"Okay well remember how Peter saved me," I asked Scott and Malia who both nodded.

"Yeah well, he said I owed him one so when he asked me to drive him back to his after the meeting I did and then I just hang out. I just asked him werewolf questions and might've fallen asleep. Hey, I was tired, and he didn't wake me so when I woke up the next day I came home." All the wolves nod because my heart doesn't give away anything. My dad seems to look sorry about not believe and doesn't that hurt in two ways.

He trusts the wolfs opinions and I'm still lying to all there faces.

"Okay and the clothes and your phone then, you still haven't explained those." My dad says.

Malia asks, "What happened to your clothes?" I sigh,

"Well I wasn't lying I really did trip, not down a cliff and not in the woods, but down a staircase while leaving Peters. He's staying at Derek's loft by the way and you know the deathly staircase I'm talking about." I say to Lydia whose almost tripped once cause of her heels. She nods to confirm my story to my dad.

"I guess Peter heard me fall and tried to catch me but he had his claws out and tore my shirt and part of my pants. I didn't end up falling all the way just a few steps before I grabbed something and stopped myself, but by then my clothes were already ruined."

I finish and look around the room having fooled them all with my perfect steady heartbeat.

"I guess I'm sorry, Well you did lie to me at first but you were telling the truth. Sorry kid." My dad says hugging me.

"It's fine I guess," I say and accept the hug.

We all ended up hanging out till late. And eventually, everyone decided to go home. Mainly my dad reminds everyone it's a school night and that we need to sleep. I sighed and before anyone left offered for the exact reason he was gonna answer,

"Anyone needs a ride?" I ask looking at Malia to not seem obvious. But she says no she going with Lydia and Scott is taking Kira so I turn around knowing he's about to say something.

"Uh actually if you don't mind I kinda need a ride," Theo asks. Scott knows I don't like him, hell I've told him as much. That's most likely why he looks shocked as I say,

"Uh, sure I guess. Let's go, I'm still grounded, apparently." I say as I grab my keys and leave. Scott looks at me weird as I leave. Yet he never says anything. Theo follows and we hop into the jeep.

And we are the first to leave Casa de Stilinski, and I'm the one who ends up getting home the latest...
