#15, Death

Scott wanted to give Lydia a gift to show her how much she meant to him, now more than ever. But it had to be perfect, and when he found it, he knew it was. She was convinced that her sole purpose of existence was to foretell violent death now, and whilst that was part of her, it wasn’t all of her.

The Tree of Life pendant with the delicate emerald was perfect. It symbolised the link between life and death, which is what Lydia was... along with beautiful, amazing, wise, kind, and one-of-a-kind, as far as he was concerned.

It seemed like it was going to be a good day. For the first time in a week, Euan wasn’t bedridden and he had come down stairs that morning (albeit slowly) to have tea with Julie. Ciaran and Noah were still in their beds, dead to the world, and the house was quiet... possibly even peaceful for the time being. Maybe it was a far cry from his usual attire, but there was something fondly endearing about Euan’s Star Wars pyjama pants and knitted sweater that was swimming on him now.

( The kettle was boiling and the teapot already housing Irish Breakfast tea leaves in wait... )

#12 THERAPY

Euan knew it was coming, but that hadn’t been enough to prepare for how he would feel when he started to lose his hair from the chemotherapy. It seemed like such an insignificant thing comparable to everything else. He just couldn’t face losing it in bits and pieces, so he closed himself in the a bathroom alone to shave his head, for some reason getting emotionally stretched and breaking down in tears, drowned out by the sound of the electric razor.

He thought he would’ve been tough enough to face all this head-on. He couldn’t have gotten it more wrong.

Drabble #08: Pain

There was no pain quite like the knowledge that your child was in pain. But even worse than that was the realization that Stiles… as much her son as Scott… had been in enough pain that he didn’t want to feel anything anymore. It was a heartwrenching thing to hear as a parent.

But in moments like these, surrounded by pain, Melissa realized more than ever what a family Scott’s pack had become, and how much they’d come to rely on each other. And more than that, just how much she and John had come to depend on each other.

John shot awake abruptly and groggily reached to switch his lamp on. He hadn't been sleeping the best lately, and most nights it was lightly so he could keep an awareness on his son in case he needed him. Nights seemed to be the worse. When it was dark, when Stiles mind seemed to kick into overdrive the most. He was sure it was the sound of someone crying that roused him. Maybe he dreamt it, but maybes weren't enough for him to base anything on right now.

Sheriff John Stilinski || Ten Wolf

16. NUMB
Lydia wished she was numb to the painful worry inside that came in the wake of the Sheriff’s texts. She tried to seek a little comfort in the fact she wasn’t screaming, but it wasn’t working. She was already close to tears pulling on her denim jacket and grabbing up her handbag to bolt out of the house well after 1am.

At her car, she fumbled with her keys trying to get it unlocked and dropped them. A frustrated sob escaped as she hit her hand against the window. But she wasn’t screaming. She wasn’t, and this time, she couldn’t.
