Maybe Youll See Things

Stiles remembered the stories about children going out past dark and never coming home. His own dad sometimes had to deal with those cases, had to tell so many parents that they couldn’t find a trace of where their children went, or that their children would never be coming home, but Stiles wasn’t about to let a cautionary tale like that stop him from playing with Scott. Anyway, it was only a cautionary tale. As in “proceed with caution.” His dad never explicitly said Stiles wasn’t allowed to do whatever he wanted. And at seven years old, Stiles and Scott felt pretty invincible.
