The Strawberry Blonde~~Lydia Martin

1.12.1

I slowly start to wake up, seeing I'm in a hospital bed. I look around my surroundings confused. Outside the window I could see Stiles talking to his Dad while Danny, Mikey and Taylor paced around. I start to sit up with a groan, looking over my wounds. The most important one, the one on my side. He bit me and I think he bit Lydia too. Wait...Lydia!!

I go to get up but the door opens and Noah walks in. "Hey, I don't think that's a good idea" Noah warns me, laying me back down. "Is Lydia okay?" I rasp out. "She's just in the next room" He tells me. "But is she okay?" I worry. "She'll be all right." He tells me. I look around the empty hospital room.

"Let me guess...only family members allowed?" I ask sadly and he nods. "Yeah, well, my family and I aren't talking right now" I sigh sadly. "Would you want your friends in here?" He asks, motioning towards the window. I see Danny, Taylor, Mikey and Stiles all watching. I turn back to him and nod my head.

"Okay. I'll talk to them. You should rest." He advises and I nod as he walk out, talking to the four. Danny, Taylor and Mikey all rush in, worriedly. Taylor quickly makes her way towards the side of my bed, cupping my face. "Thank God you're okay" She cries out. "I'm fine" I sigh out. "Once I saw you and Lydia on that field..." Danny shakes his head. I comfortingly grab his hand.

"I said I'm okay, Danny. Look, I'm talking to you right now" I asure him and he slowly nods. "You're doing better than Lydia" Mikey comments. I sit up at that. "What do you mean?" I worry. "Lydia still hasn't woken up" Danny informs me and I frown. Stiles walks into the room, looking at me expectantly. "Hey, guys. You think you could give Stiles and I a minute?" I ask.

The three look at each other before looking between us. Danny motions for them to follow, squeezing my hand and leaving us alone. Stiles shuts the door and the curtains so they can't look in. "Why would Peter bite Lydia and I?" I ask confused. He shrugs his shoulders. "I-I don't know." He shakes his head worriedly. He nods down at my side. I pull the blanket down, moving my gown from off my side where a big gauze was.

I slowly start to peel it off, and notice it's still there. "Maybe it just needs time. I mean, how long did it take for Scott's to heal?" I wonder. "I don't know. He never told me. I don't even where he is" Stiles sighs, running his hand through his short hair as he paces. "Well, I really wish I could help you but I'm in pain and the hospital isn't just gonna let me out of here so you're kind of on your own" I sigh.

"I'm gonna go talk to my Dad" He hands me my phone, placing it on the table. "Keep it close" He tells me. "Wait, how long have you had this?" I ask confused. "I saw it on the field and I knew Danny and Jackson weren't gonna notice it so I grabbed it for you" He explains. "Thanks" I smile and he nods, sending me a wave before walking out.

Taylor comes back in, sitting in the chair beside my bed. "Hey, baby. How are you?" She smiles. "Fine" I sigh with a shrug. "I was so worried when I saw Danny carrying you in his arms. Your poor suit was ruined" She frowns, motioning to the folded up and torn suit sitting one of the chairs. "I'm sorry" I apologize. "It's not like it was your fault....though...what were you doing out there with Lydia? Alone." She asks suspiciously.

"She seemed upset so I went to go check on her" I shrug. "Nothing else?" She asks. "Nope" I say. "So then the conversation you and Danny had wasn't about Lydia?" She asks. I sit up more. "What are you talking about?" I ask. "The one you and Danny had while you were dancing together. I heard it" She tells me. "Listen, Taylor-" I try to say but she holds up a hand, stopping me.

"I already knew about your feelings for Lydia" She informs me. "What?" I ask confused. "I see the way you look at her. I'm not oblivious. I just thought I could change that" She shrugs sadly. "I'm really sorry, Taylor. I am" I apologize. "So, this is it then? You do want to break up?" She frowns. I sigh nodding my head. "Fine then" She gets up out of the seat, grabbing her stuff and walking out. I lay back down on the bed with a sigh. Danny comes in, shutting the door.
