LYDIAS
...Jesus, I can't believe that you just said that to me. I've said that about Derek. A man versus a boy, so yes. I get it, I definitely get it.
It's different. You wake up in the middle of the night from a nightmare, from Peter, and there's actually somebody there, and they don't get angry or awkward. Or when you're worried about something, and you can actually talk to them about it instead of playing these stupid little 'guess how he's feeling today' games. The opportunities here are phenomenal, I don't know what I would do if I didn't have them at my fingertips anymore.
I miss her too. ...God, I miss her so, so much, but the friends thing... it passes. I mean that, it's kind of like everybody coming home from summer break or college. We've all seen different things and experienced different types of hurt, but when it comes down to it, Kira is Kira. Stiles is Stiles, even Allison is Allison. We're all too strong to let a place like this break us. I mean, if the Allison from your world showed up, you wouldn't be the same person that she knew anymore, Lydia... things are different for you already. But you're still you. The important part is still there.
I have a daughter. I have a daughter and I'm with a man who drives me up the freaking wall half of the time, but I swear I've never loved anybody the way that I love him. If the rest of my life was spent just like this... I think that I would be okay. I know I would.
I wouldn't be able to go home. I wouldn't be able to go back to Beacon Hills and look at our friends who didn't have this experience with me, or have no Allison again. Or look at a Derek who probably doesn't even remember my last name. I never thought I'd ever get to this point but here I am...
