___________________________
Alex and stiles sat in his jeep in silence trying to work out what had just happened. Whilst alex was still raging with anger, stiles was aching in pain from the idea of losing his best friend.
Alex hated how things had become, how much they had changed. They were a pack, they used to save the town together and now everyone's divided and no ones talking to anyone
Smoked filled the heavy air the sat on Alex and stiles. Stiles came to stop and they both jumped out of the jeep before the smoke over took the air. He grabbed his tool kit and opened the bonnet, Alex watched as his hands shook whilst he attempted to fix his jeep yet again.
"Hey" She held his hand still "Things will work out remember" she reassured
"Will they?" He asked "Scott hates both of us Lydia is unreachable Theo is now the good guy"
Usually Alex would give stiles a look and attempt to convince stiles that Theo wasn't bad, he was slowly becoming one of her close friends until he tried to kiss her and now didn't seem like a good time to defend him.
Alex had no hope In anything being okay right now but she wanted to help stiles feel somewhat better and the only way she could do that was to fake it till she felt it "Have some hope okay" She smiled
"I'm so sick of hope!" Stiles yelled and without hesitation he flung the bloody spanner against the window of his jeep. Alex jumped back as she heard the glass crack, she had never seen him so angry but then again, he never had any reason to.
Stiles let out a small breath, he slid down his jeep and sat on the concrete road with his back resting against the tired of the jeep. Alex walked over and kneeled down sitting beside him
"Im sorry" he whimpered. Tears staining his eyes as everything had become all too much.
"It's okay" Alex reassured
He looked at her with teary eyes "Why are still here, Why are you still with me. I mean you were taken by the dread doctors and all I done was accused you off cheating"
"You shouldn't care so much about me" he sniffled
Alex couldn't help but chuckle at the statement"is that right?" She asked
"What?" He asked
She smiled softly, she laced her fingers with his "Stiles I couldn't stop caring if I tried. You own my heart. I'm with you because since the day I sat foot in beacon hills you made me feel something."
"What am I suppose to do?" Stiles asked. His breath stumbled "I can't.. I can't lose him Alex.." a lump formed in his throat and fresh tears brimmed his eyes
"he's my best friend.. he's my brother" stiles held back his urge to cry and let a few tear escape
Alex looked at him sympathetically, she had lost all hope on anything being resolved with her and Scott but she had forgotten just how different it was for stiles. Scott was stiles first friend, they've known each other for longer then they can remember and after everything that had happened, Scott was slipping away and stiles couldn't do a thing.
She knew stiles wanted to cry, he probably wanted cry scream and yell all at once.
"Don't hold back, it's just me and you now. Let it out, do whatever you need to do" she told him.
In that moment stiles realized how perfect she was. How after everything she still knew exactly what to say and when to say it.
So he let his tears fall and the small cries escape his mouth. He hugged into Alex and she held him tightly as he finally let go of what he had been holding onto for weeks
...
Stiles and Alex sat in Noah stilinskis office waiting patiently for his arrival. Stiles sat nervously, his knee bounced up and down as anxiety pumped through his veins. Every part Of him terrified his father would turn a cold shoulder on him the second he found out.
Alex put her hand on stiles knee and he looked at her, his thumb in his mouth as he bit his nail. She smiled a little and took his hand down from his mouth "what's going on in there?" She asked referencing to his head
He sighed "what If he hates me?" Stiles asked
Alex smiled softly "Stiles, your dad let me walk out of the sherrif station without a word. He even told me how things will get better." She explained "If he didn't hate me, he won't hate you" she reassured
"Are you sure you want to do this?" She asked, practically feeling the anxiety roll of his shoulders
Stiles nodded "yeah, I have to. It's time he knew"
Alex rubbed the fresh beats of sweat off her forehead using the back of her hand. It had become ungodly hot in the station "Is it just me or is it hot in here?" She asked
"No it's getting hot" stiles told her as tugged at his shirt.
Alex stood up and took off the jacket she had with her outfit. She pulled it of her sweaty body and sat back down draping the jacket over her lap
"It will be okay" she says to the worried boy
"How do you know?" He asked
"Because, no matter how many lies are told no matter how many versions of the truth you hear. The real story always comes out" she spoke
"Yeah, and what's the real story?" He Asked, raising a brow
"A boy who saves himself and his dad, but doing so takes the life of someone not so innocent" she stated, she had become good with words over the last year, especially after she took up writing
"You did the right thing that night. You saved yourself and your dad"
"I love you" he mumbled
"I love you" she said in return
Stiles leaned in and was about to kiss Alex when the fire alarm ruined their moment. Stiles stood up and Alex followed; He walked out to see what was going on, Stiles and Alex's eyes widening as they seen a hellhound walking past
"What the hell... " a deputy questioned
Three deputies pulled out their guns and pointed them at him as she walked. Stiles quickly held out his hand "Wait, wait, wait... Don't shoot! Don't shoot! Get back! Stay out of his way." Stiles yelled.
Thankfully for some unknown reason they listened and all out their guns to their side and watched as parish walked out. Stiles and Alex following after
*
They ended up following parish to the sherif impound area, parish had taken a van that contained coreys lifeless body. After realizing that Calling Scott was useless since both their calls were sent to voicemail, they called Theo. It was Alex's suggestion considering neither of them had their car and Theo was their last choice
Theo had just pulled up in car and jumped out, stiles not giving him a second went straight into action mode
"Sorry. I got here as fast as I could... "
"We gotta go. Now. Parrish has got the bodies." Stiles hurried not letting Theo finish
"Okay, wait up... Stiles, wait." Theo stopped stiles
"Parrish is out and he's got the bodies. We've got to find Scott. And we've got to tell him." Stiles said about to get into the truck.
"Stiles!" Theo yelled "I don't think Scott wants to talk to you right now." Theo reminded stiles
"Yeah, thanks, I'm aware of that. It doesn't matter. He needs to know about this." Stiles insisted
"Stiles... Scott doesn't want to talk to you" he pulled out stiles Library card "But I think your dad does, Your dad was looking for you, Stiles. He found me instead" Theo explained
Alex's heartbeat picked up and Theo heard as it did "What the hell did you do Theo?"
"I covered for you. This was taken care of. If Melissa didn't find it at the hospital... Guess even the son of a cop can make mistakes."
"Did you hurt him?" Stiles asked with a viscous tone.
He grinned "I never lied about why I came to Beacon Hills. I'm here for a pack. I came for the werecoyote. The one whose first instinct is to kill.I came for the Banshee, the girl surrounded by death. I came for the dark Kitsune, the Beta with anger issues... The girl who could heal anything, I came for Void Stiles. That's the pack I want. Unfortunately, it doesn't include Scott"
Alex stood in silence trying to take in how Theo had played the good character down to a T. How she trusted him with her emotions and only to discover it was not but an act perpetrated by an Oscar winning nominee.
Theo smiled as he listened to stiles heart beat rise by the second "Your heartbeat's rising, Stiles. It's not because you're afraid. Nogitsune is gone, but you've still got more blood on your hands than any of us."
"I'm about to get more" stiles warned. He knew not to trust Theo, he knew something was up from the minute he set foot in town.
"I'll tell you where your dad is, if you promise not to help Scott."
Stiles didn't respond.. at least not with words. Instead he decided to show him what his fist looked like.
Theo grunted "There he is! That's Void Stiles." He yelled. Theo was slowly winning, the anger he wanted stiles to unleash was seeping Through
"It felt good, didn't it?" He asked
He turned to Alex and despite the small hint of guilt he felt Toward the only person that ever bothered to care for him, he continued with his plans "What about you huh, you know what we had was special" Theo antagonized
"You and me.. that night.."
Alex stared at the coyote with tears in her eyes, everything she had knew about him was lie and he only turned out to be everything she was afraid of.
"What happened?" She asked, a tear escaped her eye and rolled down her cheek
"I told you.." she swallowed thickly "I told you everything about her.. and me. I told you my secrets"'
He scoffed "you think I actually cared, you were too easy. You thought because we were friends once meant I wanted to hear about the ins and outs of how your sister was killed"
Theo wouldn't admit but a small part of him, somewhere down deep in his soul felt the guilt of saying these things to Alex. He didn't care about the rest, he didn't care if Scott was dead by tonight but he knew at the back of his mind he was hitting to close to home with Alex.
As the words fell from Theos mouth stiles thought back to when he found Alex in tears thinking she was at fault for Allison's death, without hesitation stiles punched Theo again, shocking Alex as he did.
Alex was stunned into silence. She was truly heartbroken that she trusted him and he just used her to get closer to the pack.
He stood up and wiped his mouth "We won't tell Scott. 'Cause you can't lose your best friend, right? Even though we both know, you never needed him." Theo said and just as the words fell stiles snapped. He landed on theo and held him by the collar of his shirt.
"You hate me now, but you'll get it eventually. This is the hard part. 'Cause you can't help Scott and save your dad's life." He told him
"You've still got time, Stiles. You've still got time."
Alex rushed over to stiles and pulled him off of Theo before he did something he would later regret "Stiles come on" she tugged his arm, "this won't do anything, it's what he wants. He wants your anger.
Theo got up from the ground and looked at Alex. He had one more card left to play. "I can save her" he uttered
Alex looked at him confused "What?"
He smirked "Allison, I can bring her back"
Alex felt her heart fall to her stomach. A wave of nausea took over her body. He had to be lying, he didn't have the power to do such a thing.
"You.. no you can't" she stammered, her words struggled to escape her lips.
"The dread doctors can do anything. You just have to choose"
"What?" She asked, her voice almost a whisper
"You want your sister, or you want your boyfriends dad?" He asked
Stiles watched as his Theo gave Alex the most impossible ultimatum she'd ever be asked. He knew he was lying, he couldn't bring her back. He also knew Alex didn't want to believe him but there is always that part of her that would believe anything that could bring Allison back.
"Alex he's lying" stiles spoke softly
"Choose" Theo pushed
"Alex hes-.."
"Just stop talking!" She yelled. Her head spun as every minute that passed was another minute gone from possibly saving Noah stilinksi. She couldn't think, her mind was fussy and so much was happening; She shook her head
"it's impossible you can't bring her back.. you just can't" she tried to make sense of things
"Not me.. the dread doctors" He corrected, an evil grin painting his face
She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath, he wasn't serious, he couldn't possibly be. It was too long she was gone for too long. Her body, it wouldn't be salvageable. He didn't have the power, he couldn't have the power.
Alex opened her eyes and let out the air she held in her Lungs "where is he. Where is stiles dad"
