It's Always Been You || Stiles Stilinski

Chapter 52 The Benefactor

Stiles' phone ringing brings our attention away from our code deciphering research for whatever the hell it is I wrote in my notebook.

Grabbing the phone off his desk, he informs it's Scott before he answers "What's up man?"

Stiles widens his eyes and turns around to look over at me, mumbling "He didn't have a mouth?"

I furrow my brows, jerking my head back slightly as I close the lid to my laptop and move to the end of the bed to put my shoes back on.

I look up to him when he continues "A wendigo? Fuck okay– yea, yea, yea I'll call my dad and tell him about the attack and body on the roof, and that you needed to leave because you were hurt– wait Liam?– okay questions later got it" what the fuck happened at the hospital?

They exchange a few more words before Stiles hangs up with Scott and calls his dad, mentioning the slim bit of information he was just given before ending that call.

Stiles brings his hand up to rub at his forehead before he looks at me with a huff "That kid who survived the attack on his family– he was at the hospital and attacked Scott, took Liam to the roof and then attacked Scott some more when he tried to save him," he sets his hands on his hips, draws his brows inwards as he continues to make sense of what he's repeating "Liam was hanging off the roof and Scott was having trouble hanging on to him, when the kid– who also called himself a Wendigo– was hit in the back with an axe, courtesy of the same guy probably who killed his family last night." I don't even know where to start to process that video game storyline

Completely speechless with his words I open and close my mouth twice before he lifts his hand up to rub over the side of his mouth and states "Oh also, he apparently didn't have a mouth" because of course he didn't

Pinching my brows together, I shake my head and choose to ignore that as I ask "Okay, so what about Liam?"

Stiles sets his hands on his hips and shrugs his shoulders "Scott said something happened with Liam and he'd explain when we got to your guys' house– which we need to head over to meet him at right now."

I take a deep breath and nod before turning to grab my sweater off his bed, facing him again as I go to put it on "Alright, well we shou–"

My words are stopped as Stiles sets his hands on each side of my face and brings our lips together softly.

I breathe in through my nose, savoring the calm he instantly brings as I set my hands on his chest and bunch his shirt into my fists slightly.

He moves his lips against mine for a few more seconds in a kiss that isn't about anything other than showing me he's here for me.

Pulling away, he kisses me quickly again before he sets his forehead against mine and takes a deep breath in.

I open my eyes, connecting with his gaze as I smile softly and lay my hands flat against his chest, murmuring just above a whisper "Not that I'm at all complaining, but what was that for?"

Lifting one corner of his mouth up in a slight smile, he moves his eyes around my face as he answers "That was me, taking advantage of our little moment of calm before we're hit with another supernatural crisis."

We get to our house and Scott meets us outside asking what we filled Mr. S on as he opens the door and we walk in behind him.
