    Summary

    “Wait,” she says, and the Sheriff hasn’t heard her voice this strong before. It’s melodious. It reminds him of his wife’s when she sings lullabies to their daughter; something she hasn’t felt up to for a couple of months. Damn. Why does one word from this stranger make him this nostalgic?

    “There is something that you can do for me, actually. Don’t call me Ms. Valenka. Can you… can you use my first name?” She looks entirely too fragile to be asking such a simple request. He fears that if he says no she will shatter.

    “Of course. Let me know if you need anything, Stiles.”

    She turns her face away and he shuts the door between them.

    ***

    Stiles has a plan, a good one, and it’s going well—until she’s arrested for something she doesn’t even remember doing. And of course it’s her luck that Sheriff Stilinski is there to interrogate her, being all nice and talking about his nine year-old daughter like it’s not ripping out Stiles' very heart.
