"Terri, please. I'm sorry. But please don't shut me out."
"Stiles. Just let me get some sleep, please."
"Okay. Okay." He said as he rolled over to face the door. "I'm not here."
"I'm not done. "I want to get some sleep, but I want you to hold me. I'm scared, I'm tired and I don't want to wake up from the nightmares and be alone."
"You're not alone. I'm here; I'll always be here. You don't have to worry."
"But I'm scared. What if they come to your house?"
"They won't, I promise. I'll protect you, you don't have anything to worry about okay."
"But I'm still scared."
"I know."
"But I feel so alone."
"You're not alone, I promise. I'm here." He said as he pulled her into a big hug. "Go to sleep. Everything will be okay. I promise. I love you."
"Thank you for being here. And I love you too." She said as she snuggled into his embrace.
"Sweet dreams babe." He said, kissing her on the back of the head. "Sweet dreams."
NOW, THE CONCLUSION

STILES' HOME
ARLINGTON, VA
Ring, ring. Ring, ring.
"Hello." Stiles said as he answered the phone.
"Hey Stiles." Lex replied.
"What is it this time?"
"Nothing, why do you always assume that I've done something wrong when I call you at home."
"Because, normally you have done something wrong."
"Okay, your right. Normally I have done something wrong, but not this time."
"All right then. What's up?"
"Jackson was wondering if you were going to Quinn's last trial."
"Yeah, I guess so."
"You think we could get Terri to come home."
"Probably not."
"Have you talked to her lately?"
"Yeah, last night."
"How's her mom doing?"
"Better, she had surgery today. I was just getting ready to call her and find out how things went."
"Let her know we miss her."
"I will. Look, I got to go. What time is the trial?"
"Noon."
"All right. I'll see you guys later."
"All right. Bye."
"Bye." Stiles said as he hung up and dialed the number at Terri's parent's house.
"Hello?" John Fremont asked as he answered the phone.
"Hi. Mr. Fremont, its Stiles. Is Terri there?" Stiles asked as he collapsed on the couch.
"No son. I'm sorry, she's at the hospital."
"Oh. How did the surgery go?"
"I don't know. I'm awaiting the news."
"Well, I hope everything goes okay. Can you have Terri call me when she gets in?"
"I'll do that."
"Thanks."
"Oh, hold on. She just pulled in the driveway." He answered as he went to greet her. "Hey honey. How did the surgery go?"
"I don't want to talk about it." She said with tears in her eyes as she stomped off to her room.
"Sweetheart. Stiles is on the phone. He wants to talk to you." He said, knocking on the door of her room.
"Tell him I don't want to talk to him right now."
"Sorry, she doesn't want to talk to you right now." John said into the phone.
"That's okay. Let me know what's going on, will yeah?" Stiles asked as he sat up.
"I will. I'll talk to you later."
"Okay. Thanks. Bye."
"Bye."

"Terri, sweetheart. Please open the door." John said as he knocked on the door gently. "I know what happened. The doctor just called. Terri, please, we need to talk." He said as he heard the door being unlocked. "She's going to be okay sweetheart. I promise." He replied, pulling her into a hug.
"I know. I just can't get the thought out of my head that she could have died." Terri said as she cried into his shoulder.
"I know. I don't like that thought either, but she's going to be fine."
I want Stiles."
"I know. I tried to call him to tell him what was going on, but I didn't get an answer."
"What's for dinner? I'm starving." She said, pulling away and standing up.
"I don't know. Let's go see what we can find." He said as he followed her into the kitchen.

Ding, dong.
"Dad! Can you get that?" Terri called from the kitchen.
"Sure." John replied as he walked to the door to see who would be visiting him so late at night. "Hello." He said as he opened the door.
"Hey. Is she here?" Stiles asked as John opened the door so he could come in.
"Yeah, she's in the kitchen. Let me take your stuff." John said taking Stiles' bag.
"Thanks." Stiles said as he walked towards the kitchen.
"Dad, who was at the door?" Terri asked, keeping her back to the doorway.
"Guess who?" Stiles said as he covered Terri's eyes from behind her.
"Stiles?" She said as he uncovered her eyes and turned her around to face him.
"Surprise!" He said as Terri threw her arms around his neck.
"What are you doing here?" She asked a few minutes later after hugging him.
"Your dad called and left a message. He told me what happened. I thought you might need me."
"Thank you. I do need you. I can't believe it's really you."
"Yup. All me."
"Have you eaten anything?"
"Nope."
"Well, we have some leftover spaghetti."
"Sounds good. Thanks." He said as Terri turned around and went to the refrigerator to fix him some leftovers.
"No problem."
"Thanks. That was very good." Stiles said 10 minutes later after he had eaten a plate of spaghetti. "Did you make that?"
"Yup." She replied, taking his now clear plate and putting it in the sink.
"It was very good. Thank you." He said, standing, walking up behind her, wrapping his arms around her stomach and kissing her on the head.
"I missed you." She said as she leaned her head back against his shoulder.
"I missed you too. I'm going to get in trouble with Lex and Jackson now.
"Why is that?"
"I was supposed to be at the last part of Quinn's trial."
"Oh." She said, pulling away and walking past her dad and upstairs.
"What did I say?" He asked John.
"Who knows." John said as Stiles joined him in the doorway.
"Should I go after her?"
"Yup." John said as Stiles started up the stairs. "Oh, I put your stuff in her room. I wasn't if you two wanted to share a room or not."
"Well, right now it's looking like I might be sleeping on the porch."
"Nah. You can at least have the couch."
"Thanks." Stiles said as he walked up to Terri's room and knocked on the door.
"Go away dad." She said as she heard the knocks.
"It's me. Can I come in?"
"I guess." She said as he opened the door.
"You want to tell me what's going on?" He asked as he sat down next to her.
"I'm sorry. I just don't really want to hear about Quinn."
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you." He said, turning her to face him. "I love you Terri. Please come home."
"It's okay. I love you too, but I can't come home right now. My mom and dad need me."
"Terri, your mom's going to be okay. Please, I'm so lonely without you. I can't take it anymore, you won't even talk about."
"I don't care." She said standing and moving to the other side of the room. "I know my mom's going to be okay, but her and my dad are going to need me more when she gets home. Besides, I'm not ready to come home yet."
"Terri, please. If you won't come home at least talk to me about it." He said as he joined her at the window.
"I don't want to. Is this why you came here, to try and get me to come home?" She asked, turning to face him.
"No. Terri, I came here because I thought you might need me. We all miss you, especially me. Please talk to me." He said, turning to face her.
"Why? What good is that going to do?"
"I don't know. It will help me understand why you don't want to go back." He replied as he sat down on the bed. "But if you don't want my help, fine then. I'll go home tomorrow if it will make you feel better."
"No. Don't go home." She stated as she sat down next to him. "I need you here with me. I... I just don't want to talk about one of the worst times of my life."
"Baby, you know I'll listen, you know I'll be there for you." He said, lifting her head up so that he could look her in the eyes. "Please let me help you. I don't want to go home without you."
"You don't have to go home without me. It might be a while before I come home though."
"That's okay. Do you think your parents would mind if I stayed a little longer?"
"No. We don't mind." John said from the doorway.
"How long have you been standing there?" Terri asked.
"Long enough to know that this young man loves you very much."
"That long huh?"
"Yup."
"Good night dad." Terri said as she got up and hugged him.
"Goodnight sweetheart. Night Stiles."
"Night sir." He said as John closed the door. "I guess this means your father likes me?"
"Oh yeah. You sleeping in here?" She asked as she grabbed her pajamas and started toward the bathroom.
"If I'm allowed to."
"Oh, you definitely are."
"Good."
"Are you joining me or not?" She asked a few minutes later as she walked out wearing only a towel.
"Oh yeah." He said jumping up and joining her in the shower.
