I'd had multiple encounters with Stiles Stilinski before Beacon Hills High School.
The story of our very first encounter would bring most people to tears. I'm not looking for that,and I know he isn't,either...
My mother just so happened to be on her death bed when I met Stiles. The not-so-funny coincidence was that he was dealing with the same thing,the only difference being I didn't have a father. If my mother died,I was an orphan. I was only eight...
The day my mother flatlined,I stood in the doorway,watching,but I didn't cry. I was withering in Hell,but no tears came. The doctor,his voice hollow,announced the time my mother died,and it was done,like a television show.
That was when the tears bubbled to the surface.
I raced down the hallway,the wind sweeping my hair back,but I was stopped abruptly as I slammed into someone's back. We both toppled to the floor,and I stayed there,sobbing as I hugged my knees. He stood up in a hurry,whipping around to face me,his expression apologetic. The eight-year-old boy I had just thrown myself into had thought it was his fault I had fallen. He held out a hand,and I took it,wiping at my eyes with my other hand like a three year old.
"Are you okay...?"
Instead of answering,in a fit of despair,I simply threw my arms around him. I didn't even know his name at the time...
After an hour of trying to calm me,Stiles asked me my name sheepishly. I managed to choke out,"My name is Willow..."
His father had walked out around that time,his eyes red and puffy,and I understood the circumstances then. Stiles' mother was sick just like my mother was. There was an unspoken connection between the two of us.
"M- My name is Stiles."I fell head over heels for him right then.
