Chapter 13
<Stiles' POV>
"Oh my god Lydia!" I yell as I pull her off of the floor. Kira enters the bathroom, covering her mouth at the sight of Lydia. I hold Lydia in my arms, bridal style, only this is anything but a happy moment. "Kira, call 911," I say breathlessly, trying to calm myself down. I bring her into the living room and lay her down in the sofa. Everyone gasps and begins to panic. I hear Kira on the phone with the police. I kneel next to Lydia on the phone, Allison beside me, trying not to pass out or scream. I run my hands along Lydia's face and push her hair back. "Stay with me Lydia, please." The ambulance is here in no time. They burst into the apartment and place Lydia carefully on a stretcher. I begin to follow them out of the door. Allison pushes me back.
"Stay here Stiles, sell the apartment, I'll go, come visit her later, by the time she is out of the hospital I want this place packed up!" Allison demands as she runs out after the doctors. I stand frozen.
"I will Ali, make sure she wakes up!"
"She will!" Allison yells back. Scott comes up behind me, his hand now on my shoulder.
"She'll be alright mate, I promise," he tells me soothingly. I nod slowly.
"Ya, ya she's a fighter that one," I say trying to reassure myself. I move to the bathroom, finding Lydia's blood from her head on the tiles and an empty bottle of pills on the counter. I hadn't even seen it before. After throwing away the bottle, I grab a damp cough and begin to scrub the blood off of the floor. I scrub harder and harder, but it won't come off. Anger and sadness build up within me. Tears begin pouring from my eyes onto the floor. I fall back into the wall, sobbing. Isaac and Scott pull me out of the bathroom and bring me into my bedroom, laying me down in the bed. How could I let her just try and kill herself? What is wrong with me?
By the time I emerge from my room again, the apartment is spotless. Everyone is sitting at the kitchen table talking quietly. They welcome me to sit down and I do. "The place looks good, they have got to buy it," I state hopefully. Isaac shoots me a small smile.
"It will work out." The doorbell rings and I sprint to the door eagerly. Please God, let them love this place. Opening the door slowly I see the smiling couple and out on a fake smile of my own.
"Hello! Welcome! I'm Stiles and my friends in the kitchen are Scott, Kira, Malia, and Isaac, come on in," I greet them with phony happiness. They walk in gratefully and both shake my hand.
"I'm Marie and this is Kim," she greets me politely.
"Nice to meet you, let me show you around," I state eagerly. I graciously show the couple the entire apartment. The bedroom, bathroom, living area, kitchen, and balcony. They seem pretty impressed with the place and I get a good feeling about it. At the end of the tour, I hand them a paper with the information about the apartment and what we are selling it for. They read the paper carefully. "So, what do you guys think?" They look at each other before Kim replies.
"It's a great space, but naturally we need some time to think," she says kindly. I hold my hands together tightly before wiping them on my jeans. Before responding I nod my head.
"Of course, thanks for coming by, give me a call when you've decided and then you can move right in, furniture is also included by the way," I add, hoping it will persuade them to live here.
"We'll call you, see you later Stiles," Marie says before they leave. I close the door behind them before slamming my skull onto the door.
"They've gotta buy this place," I state the obvious before waking back to my fiends who have moved to the living room.
"They seemed to like it," Kira says with hope in her voice. I nod my head slowly.
"Ya, I just wanna see Lydia," I say without thinking. Malia moves uncomfortably in her seat. I don't comment on it.
"We all do buddy, I say go down there in maybe two hours," Scott tells me. I nod slowly, closing my eyes.
"Wake me up in two hours," I request tiredly. Sleep finds me quickly and I enter a world of calm nothingness.
