***** Irrationality and Useless Infatuations *****
Stiles hoped to never see the werewolves that, a hundred years ago, supposedly
plagued  the countryside just north of his village. Since he was a boy he’d
heard the stories about their ferocity, and the devastation that wracked the
surrounding settlements when they had ruled Beacon forest. His fears were
irrational he knew for no one had seen a werewolf in damn near a century, let
alone been attacked!

So why then was he unable to sleep since the conversation with his father this
afternoon? Stiles had made the trip to his grandmother’s home, high up on
Beacon Hill many times, albeit every time he’d had Scott tagging along. But
this time it would be different; He was going alone..

Scott’s mother and father had revealed to him a few days prior to Stiles’
debacle that he was betrothed to an out of towner, one Allison Argent. After
seeing her portrait Scott had become sickeningly smitten with the dark haired
beauty, and requested to set up a meeting with her as soon as possible to gage
her feelings on the marriage. Scott McCall was nothing if not honorable and
kind hearted; he would never force the poor girl into anything she didn’t fully
consent to.

Stiles didn’t particularly understand. Yes, there was no denying the girl was a
looker but to marry someone you barely know, if at all, it seemed strange.
Perhaps that was because his infatuation had been held by certain strawberry
blonde goddess since he was a very young boy. He knew any hope in that
relationship beyond their tenuous friendship was foolish; she was practically
as betrothed as Scott. Her and Jackson Whittemore were a couple to be fawned
over; the women in town had a field day with the first glittering rumors of a
wedding. In any case it was obvious his father hoped he would marry his
neighbor Erica Reyes. The girl was all blonde hair, legs and sass to match
Stiles’ own. He didn’t pretend to be uninterested and he knew she liked him,
but he couldn’t help but feel that it would be unfair to her; he feared that
his heart would always belong to Lydia, and Erica deserved better than that.

It didn’t matter how hard he tried to quell the feelings he had for the girl,
his body just wouldn’t listen it was impossible to stop Stiles’ mind from
wandering to Lydia’s full pouty lips and generous curves. He let his hands
wander as well as his thoughts; imagining that it was her delicately manicured
fingers undoing his sleeping pants. his hands were almost wrapped around
himself when he remembered he had to get up early tomorrow. Reluctantly he
removed his trembling hand from his trousers and rolled onto his side, trying
desperately not to be afraid of what might await him in the forest.
===============================================================================

“Stiles, wake up son.” The sheriff gently shook his son awake. The sleeping boy
blinked slowly.

“No… Its too early..” Stiles groaned and tried to cover himself with his bed
sheets.

“Early? Its almost sun up.” his father replied seriously. Stiles sat up,
knowing he wouldn’t win this, he knew he had to get up and ready for his trip.

“Oh? Almost sunrise you say?” He mock glared at his father. “You know, you
probably should have woken me up before I even went to sleep; then I certainly
wouldn’t have overslept!” he threw his hands up exasperatedly.

The sheriff chuckled at his sons theatrics. their relationship had slowly been
on the mend since his wife’s death; an illness had swept through their village
claiming several lives, including Stiles’ mother. His son had been young and
very confused at the time; death is often a hard concept for children to grasp.
Regrettably it became hard for Sheriff Stilinski to look at his son who
reminded him so much of his beautiful wife. They shared the same honey colored
eyes,ghostly pale skin and bountiful freckles. It was like looking at a ghost.
His avoidance only lasted a short time though; he had begun to realize how much
his son truly needed a father now that he had no mother. “I made breakfast for
you and put the supplies for your grandmother into the picnic basket by the
door.” He smiled and left to get ready for work as his son dramatically rolled
off his bed.

Now that stiles was alone he was free to mope and dress in peace. “Sure, I’ll
go into the creepy, possibly werewolf infested, forest all by my self! Why, you
ask? ‘Cause I’m stiles and I can’t defend myself against a chipmunk let alone a
man eating wolf beast!” he aggressively pulled on his form fitting light brown
leather travel pants, tying them securely against his narrow, though he would
never admit it, slightly girlish hips. “And hey, this weekend seems as good as
any to get mauled to death!” After slipping into a loose fitting tunic he went
to get the breakfast he’d been promised.

His father had left a note that there was a disturbance at the Lahey farm and
he was sorry he couldn’t see him off. Stiles was never mad when his dad had to
leave abruptly, he got it, his dad was an important person and he had people to
look after not only him but the whole town.

Breakfast finished he made his way to the front door and stepping out into the
cool spring air. He’d made it halfway to the forests edge before he realized he
had forgotten his basket. “Damn!” he exclaimed jogging back to his small
cottage. The basket sat by the door with another note utop it. It read ‘Stiles,
I know that you might not be able to handle this trip by yourself. So if you
want me to come with you we can go tomorrow.. Also if you go today bring your
cloak it can get cold in the woods.’

Stiles was a little furious. It was one thing for him to think he couldn’t do
it, but his father? He was supposed to believe in him; he knew his father only
meant well but it still hurt. There was no way he would back down now. He
debated rebelliously leaving his cloak, but thought better of it. It wouldn’t
do to have him freezing and having to turn back would it?
===============================================================================

“Falalalala lalalala.” Stiles finished the last verse of Deck the Halls and
swung the basket around in his hand. He’d been walking along the unused path
for a good half hour and had quickly become bored, unaccustomed to the silence
of the woods without Scott’s chatter to comfort him. “This is what I’ve been
reduced to.. Its not even close to christmas!” he threw his arms up in
exasperation almost dropping the basket.

He really only sang to soothe the growing fear of the dark path ahead of him.
His voice wasn’t bad but it wasn’t as good as Scott’s he usually just drummed
along. The sun had barely just begun to peak over the horizon and Stiles glared
at its brightness. He readjusted himself and pulled his blood red cloak around
his shoulders, his father had been right the cold was much more prevalent here
than in the sunny town.  

“Why!?” he cried out to no one. “This is not a time for humans to be awake!” he
kicked at a pinecone, but missed and fell on his backside sending his basket
rolling into the trees, he could only hope it hadn’t opened and spilled its
contents. Before he could get up he felt a pair of eyes on him.

“I thoroughly agree.” A rich dark sarcastic voice answered his previous
exclamation. Stiles bolted up only to crash straight into the man. To Stiles’
surprise they didn’t topple over which is what would have happened had he been
any other man.

“Ahhh Oh my god! I’m so sorry!” Stiles appologised feverishly and tried to pull
away, but the man had a vice like grip on his biceps. For the first time Stiles
looked up at the guy holding him flush against his body. Pale skin covered a
chiseled jaw line and nose that were every sculptures wet dream. Dark brooding
eyebrows set above- stiles tensed in fear- the mans eyes were a glowing ruby
color. If his research had been correct that was the mark of an alpha werewolf!
But when he looked again they were a steely blue grey color. It had to have
been his imagination he was just scared and making things up.

“Thanks.” he exhaled, trying to pull his arm out of his grip. The predatory
look he got silenced any further gratitude, stiles gulped.  “There are no
werewolves.” He accidentally whispered out loud.

A foreboding chuckle escaped the possible werewolf still holding him. He leaned
in close to stiles’ ear and whispered back “How sure are of that are you?”, he
let his bottom lip trail along the shell of the boys ear, causing him to shiver
against him. Derek didn’t entirely know why he did what he did, he decided to
chuck it up to the the nearness of the full moon and loneliness.

“Wha- what are you doing?!” The kid squeaked and began to struggle. Derek had
been following him since he’d wandered into his territory, at first it was to
assess his threat level.. but then he began to enjoy the young mans sweet
singing voice even if his song choice was a bit out of season. After all it had
been a long time since he’d had any company.. And even longer since he’d had
someone under him.
***** Idle Hands Will Wander *****
Chapter Notes
     Hey yo, I thought I would just add two chapters to start with I
     already have like 7, so if anyone likes it I'll post the rest over a
     short period of time.. Umm thanks for reading.. you make me happy!
Stiles didn’t know what to do. What to think! Here he was in the middle of the
forest being mildly molested by an probably alpha werewolf; scared out of his
wits! His heart was pounding against his ribs and if he was what he hinted at
then the burly man-thing could hear it.
 
Currently Derek was nuzzling the smaller boys neck, occasionally letting his
sharpened teeth graze his pulse point, making his heart beat faster; fresh
waves of fear radiated off his skin and clouded the werewolves sharp senses.
 
Stiles took stock of what he knew and what they pointed to. Red eyes: werewolf.
Oh Geez were those fangs?: werewolf. Stronger than Stiles: ok so its not hard
to be but still probably werewolf. “So not kidding about the whole werewolf
thing, eh?” he tried to laugh but the mans affirming grunt scared him half to
death, and it caught in his throat.
 
To be honest Derek wasn’t really aware of his own actions, let alone in control
of them! Some part of him knew that he should let the kid go.. But the more
animalistic side pleaded with his conscience to expose more of the velvety
skin, caress it with his tongue.. To bite him and make the young man his
forever. That thought is what snapped Derek out of his stupor; he abruptly let
go of Stiles making him stumble slightly. He cocked his head to one side and
attempted to start a conversation as though nothing out of  the ordinary had
happened “Eh.. So what are you doing?” he asked looking curiously at the basket
on the ground beside him, sniffing the air slightly.
 
“What am I doing?? Wha- What were you doing?! I didn’t do anything! That was
all you man… What was that anyways? It felt awfully intimate.. and uh-” Derek
tried to get a word in between the squeaks and the flailing, but it was near
impossible. “I mean is that what you usually do when people bump into you? I
mean just ‘cause you’re a werewo-” Stiles Stopped short almost having forgotten
that his pseudo attacker, because he hadn’t really done any harm he’d just made
stiles extremely uncomfortable, was an uber strong (mildly handsome,
objectively of course) wolf man that could probably tear him into bite sized
pieces in a heart beat.
 
He Turned on his heel walking in the opposite direction of the wolf in an
attempt to escape. “I’m just going to go now.. Places to be.. You know, alive
and all.” He threw over his shoulder slowly creeping along a fork in the path.
He gave a start when the man appeared beside him. Freakishly fast: a goddamn
werewolf.
 
“Yeah I just meant with the basket.” He said holding it up to Stiles. “And
don’t worry, I don’t usually bite.” He lifted the basket out of Stiles’ reach
forcing him to lean closer while trying to grab for it. Derek took this
opportunity to whisper in his ear “That is, unless you ask me too.” Stiles gave
a very undignified yelp when derek snapped playfully at his neck with his
teeth. Despite Dereks laughing he still scared the bejesus out of the teenager
who was fighting not to have a panic attack. “I’m Derek. What’s your name kid?”
Derek asked holding out the basket.
 
Stiles eyed him suspiciously, who was this ‘Derek’ and why was he still
following him? Stiles snatched the slightly dented basket from him inspecting
its contents to see that nothing was missing. “Stiles Stilinski.” He responded
tentatively maybe he would recognize the sheriffs name and back off; if he did
know it he showed no sign just snorted at the odd name. Furious Stiles snapped
“Hey! Its a nickname.. and Dereks not really what i’d expect from a werewolf
either.” He waved his hand dismissively.
 
Derek raised an eyebrow “And what would you expect of a werewolf?” he was
curious to know what the human would come up with.
 
Stiles thought for a moment “I don’t know.. like Stefan or Bedtime, but thats
more of a middle name. Something cooler.. or whatever..” He knew that was a
random and somewhat  lame response but he couldn’t find the energy to care. He
wasn’t even sure where Bedtime even came from (theauthorsbestfriendperhaps?).
 
“What?” Derek asked incredulously. “Stefan, really? Stiles Stilinski still
sounds ridiculous. And Bedtime is definitely not a name of any sort.” he shook
his head. A plan was forming in his somewhat foggy brain and it heavily
featured distracting stiles for a time.
 
Stiles willingly  bickered over the validity of the name for what seemed like
hours completely oblivious to the alphas ulterior motives; meanwhile Derek
subtly led them along till it was near dark.
 
“Theres no way-” Derek was cut off.
 
“Stop! Just think about it for a second!” Stiles took a deep breath in
preparation for a long explanation of the origin of bedtime stories when he
looked around. “Holy Shit! Where are we??”
 
“Wait here.” he felt a hand on his shoulder and breath on his neck.
 
When Stiles turned around the wolf was gone and the sun was going down… “Oh how
could I be so stupid?” he face palmed, damn him and his distractible mind. He
was completely lost in unfamiliar woods.. In the darkness… Probably being
stalked by a creepy wolf man, why had he even indulged that conversation?
 
He opened up the basket and took out the lantern inside. After lighting it he
tried to figure out which way to go it was useless though; nothing was familiar
to him. It was pitch black now and he couldn’t even see five feet in front of
himself. He stopped short when the hand he was waving in front of himself to
detect runintoable objects smacked something warm. After what had felt like
hours, only a couple minutes, Derek was right in his path.
 
“I said wait.” his tone was terse and it made stiles uncomfortable, he felt
like a child being scolded by a testy adult. Derek’s hand caught the wrist that
had smacked his shoulder and began to pull him in the opposite direction he had
been heading. “My cabin isn’t too far from here you’ll stay there tonight.” It
wasn’t a request it was an order, though stiles still tried to argue.
 
“You know, thats very nice of you but I’m supposed to be somewhere.. People are
probably already looking for me, so I should just go..” But when he turned to
leave to god knows where an arm around his waist stopped him.
 
Dereks lips were at his ear again sending tingling shivers down his spine,
something he found annoyingly pleasurable,“You’re lost and you have nowhere to
go, and for future reference I can tell when you’re lying..” Derek’s hand slid
under his cloak and up his abdomen straight over his heart, Stiles  gasped and
arched slightly into the touch before he caught himself. What was he doing??
 
“No! I- I wasn’t lying, my grandmothers expecting me..” he trailed off when the
rough hands found their way under yet another layer of clothing lightly palming
his nipples. This time he let out a high pitched moan and accidentally grinded
his backside into the wolf behind him. The lustful growl that reverberated
through him from the wolf now pressed against him brought him back to the
situation at hand. “Stop! Please!” Stiles whimpered and tried to pull away, to
his relief Derek let him go though still firmly grasping his wrist.
 
“I know she’s expecting you tomorrow.” As if in explanation he said “I saw your
supplies in the basket.. You don’t really have a choice kid.” His voice was
deep and husky. When stiles looked at him his eyes glowing red; his canines
protruded slightly from his mouth. Stiles was beginning to think he hadn’t had
any choices today.
***** Chapter 3 *****
Chapter Notes
     Not a huge fan of how this chapter turned out its kinda short and not
     much happens but there will be more later:)
     Thanks for comments and kudos!
Stiles let himself be lead through the darkness, though it wasn’t like he could
really protest. In fact every time he did Derek just growled and threatened
him; that silenced him, and he was usually pretty difficult to quiet. But if
Stiles was being honest he liked his throat attached to the rest of his body.
 
The hand on his wrist tightened its grip. Derek stopped short causing Stiles to
run straight into his back. “Geez! A little warning next time would be nice…”
Stiles trailed off. “Wait, why are we stopping?” he looked around and didn’t
see any sign of a building. He took a tentative step back when Derek turned
towards him. “What? You’re not going to molest me again are you? Because I’d
like a little warning for that as well… to prepare myself.. mentally.” Derek
rolled his eyes not that Stiles saw, he was too busy surveying his
surroundings, or at least trying his best. He could barely see anything save
for the outline of what he could assume were trees.. Everything seemed normal
and.. foresty?
 
The dark didn’t impair Derek’s sight though. He took the opportunity to study
the boys face. With his eyes all squinty and his lips set into a pout he looked
very cute. Derek wasn’t strictly speaking gay or straight.. but he couldn’t
deny it that Stiles was attractive. His many freckles added to his charm. More
than anything did he want to plot the trail, he assumed they made, all  over
his body with his tongue. He realized that Stiles had been talking to him and
tried to remember what he’d said. “What?” he reached forward releasing his grip
on Stiles’ wrist.
 
Stiles took another step back trying to avoid the hand reaching for him, to no
avail, Derek grabbed his hood and pulled him closer. “I said.. Why are we
stopping?” he swatted at Derek’s arm. “Gah, what are you doing?!” The werewolf
had pulled his wide hood over his head.
 
“It’s about to start raining.” He said matter of factly. As if on queue
droplets began falling through the treetops quickly increasing in number till
it was pouring.
 
“Whoa! How did you know that??” Stiles exclaimed eyes widening in amazement. He
was suddenly very glad that he had downed his rebellion that morning and taken
his cloak. It would not have served him well to be soaking wet in this pervy
werewolfs house.
 
“I could smell it.” Derek replied as if it should be obvious.
 
“Oh.. Well thats cool. You know that could be a profitable talent you have
there.” Stiles stumbled slightly but regained his footing quickly glad he
hadn’t fallen; the ground had turned to mud beneath his feet and he did not
want to be covered in it.
 
“How so?” Derek asked, making note of the teens unsure footing.
 
Stiles didn’t stay glad for very long. Derek let go of his hand for a second
and he instantly slipped to the ground face first. “Ahh! Cold..” his hood fell
off too and rain ran down his back when he sat up. “Ugh, why did you let go?”
Stiles pouted. Looking up he took the hand offered to him.
 
“Sorry, we’re here. I was opening the door.” Stiles noticed it now; not really
what he had expected when Derek had said cabin. he had pictured some rickety
old log shack or whatever, some place where people get dragged to and murdered…
not that he was disappointed at its charming appearance.
 
“Oh my god!” Stiles exclaimed. “This place is adorable, more like a cottage
than a cabin really.” He pointed out. It was made of stone and covered in
vines. There was a fire burning inside and the light flooded out into the area
around them with it Stiles could make out a pond around back before he was
shoved inside out of the rain.
 
The brightness took him off guard; he rubbed his eyes as they tried to adjust.
There were candles burning on the window sills and some of the tables. “Umm,
this is definitely a fire hazard.. how long have these been burning?” Stiles
peeked around the room there was a door cracked open that seemed to lead to a
bedroom, with a very large very comfy looking bed. He was starting to feel the
stress of the day. There were books and papers everywhere, which added to
Stiles’ concerns of fire safety. On the table in front of the sofa there was a
huge map rolled out; it was covered with red circles of different sizes and had
names and dates written by each one in sloppy handwriting.
 
“Not too long, just since I went back to get you.” Derek pulled off his boots
and took Stiles cloak to hang it near the fire. Stiles noticed now that the
alpha was soaked as well, he hadn’t even been wearing a coat. He tried his best
not to notice how his shirt clung to the perfectly molded muscles beneath it..
As odd as it was he wished he could feel him pressed against his own back
again. it annoyed him to no end that he couldn’t control his own thoughts so he
sought to distract himself.
 
Stiles walked over to the map, not noticing the trail of water and mud he left
causing the alpha to glare at his back. “What is this?” He looked down at some
of the names. Most of them had Xs by them but a few had question marks. “Cora
Hale.” he read aloud, examining the rest of the map noticing that it was of the
area surrounding his village and beyond. “What do the marks by the names mean?
I’ve never seen a map this big…” He trailed off when he noticed Dereks glare.
“What?”
 
Derek walked over to Stiles, ignoring his previous questions, handing him a
drying sheet “You’re making a mess. Get undressed I’ll be right back.” He
walked into the bedroom and out of stiles sight.
 
“Its already messy.” He muttered under his breath.
 
“I heard that.” Derek called from the bedroom.
 
Feeling self conscious Stiles slowly took off his shirt and shoes, after some
thought he reluctantly relieved himself of his pants. After wrapping the large
sheet around his body, like a woman, he thought, he made his way over to the
fireplace; he felt naked and exposed despite the drying sheet to protect him..
from what he wasn’t entirely sure.
 
He didn’t know exactly what Derek wanted or expected him to do. The werewolfs
earlier actions had made it obvious he was, for some reason, attracted to him
but Stiles didn’t know what to think. Of course he had heard of men that prefer
the company of other men, though he had never thought himself to be one of
them. His reaction to the older male took him by surprise and made him a little
frightened. What would Scott think? He really needed to talk to him. “Ugh! if
Scott had just come with me none of this would have happened!” He put his hands
on the mantle above the fire glad for the warmth.
 
“Who’s Scott?” Derek, who was beside him now, asked suspiciously; wearing a
pair of loose sleeping pants, he was shirtless now and Stiles tried his hardest
not to stare, he had a bundle of fabric that he handed to Stiles. He eyed the
teen with amusement as he did his best to cover his body with the large cloth
while putting on the shirt, despite his best efforts Derek still glimpsed some
pale skin and the moles he had suspected would be there, but not what he was
really looking for.
 
Stiles thought for a moment. “He’s my boyfriend.” He thought maybe the lie
would stop the alphas advances. He was glad looking at the man was out of the
question with his current predicament, after a few seconds of fidgeting he
adjusted the ties at the front of the loose shirt to cover most of his chest,
though it only reached just above his knees. What he wouldn’t do for his comfy
cotton pants that he usually slept in. He would have felt better with some
underclothes but as of this moment they were soaked. The dark coloring of the
shirt off set his skin making it seem even whiter, Derek couldn’t help but
notice he almost glowed in the dimming light of the fire and candles. He also
noticed the way his heart picked up when he said ‘boyfriend’.
 
“You’re lying again.” he gave him a crooked smile and listened to his heart
pick up again this time for a different reason. Taking a step forward to where
stiles was he reached behind him effectively pressing them together, relishing
the boys intake of breath; he took the discarded towel and gently began mussing
up Stiles’ hair in order to dry it.
 
“Oh..” his breath tickled Dereks cheek which was mere inches away. “Well he is
a boy and also my friend so technically I wasn’t lying.” when Derek was done
with his drying he turned and walked towards the bedroom.
 
“The sheets are clean; you can sleep here tonight.” Stiles didn’t know why but
he was a little disappointed. But, naturally, he just felt bad to be putting
Derek out.
 
He didn’t really think  before he spoke. “Just sleep with me.” he said when he
reached the door frame. Derek threw up a questioning brow. A violent blush rose
in Stiles’ cheeks. “I mean obviously not sleep sleep. But actually sleep like
dreaming and stuff.” He clarified and added out of curiosity, “Do werewolves
dream?”.
 
“Of course we dream.” Derek looked at him incredulously. He had expected to
have to do more to get the boy to let him into his bed, but it was becoming
easier than he had originally thought. Not that he was complaining.

Chapter Notes
     Sorry I'm the worst. I actually completely forgot that I write
     fanfiction until I saw it while looking for something to read. Memory
     of a goldfish, my bad. Not much happens but enjoy I suppose it'll be
     better next time.
See the end of the chapter for more notes
The regret he felt after his “offer” was multiplied tenfold when Derek started
to strip off what little clothes he was wearing. “Hey! Keep those on.” Stiles
indicated the man’s undergarments. Derek rolled his eyes but complied none the
less. Even after Derek had settled under the covers Stiles stood staring at the
bed like it was something horribly undesirable, despite his fatigue.
 
“Are you just going to stand there forever?” Derek asked shifting onto his side
so he could stare at Stiles.
 
“No…. Probably not.” I mean horses sleep standing up, why couldn’t Stiles? This
was weird. Wasn’t it? Sharing a bed with a half naked man he’d met only a few
hours ago. Besides there was a perfectly good couch out in the other room, next
to a fireplace and away from the unnecessarily attractive and somewhat
frightening werewolf, looking way too seductive for Stiles’ liking, in the bed.
“You know what, I’m just going to sleep on the couch.” Stiles nodded to
punctuate his decision.
 
“Suit yourself.” Stiles had expected Derek to protest, but he didn’t. He wasn’t
disappointed. Really. He just thought sleeping on a bed might be better than in
the other room. And what if something happened? Derek could protect him.
Something like what…. He probably needed the protection from the werewolf
anyways!
 
Stiles sighed, “Can I have a blanket?” he asked. Derek just pointed towards a
chest at the foot of the bed then rolled to face away from Stiles. Stupid
pouting werewolf. Stiles quickly snatched a blanket out of the chest and fled
to the other room, before he could decide to stay.
 
Derek knew Stiles wouldn’t last long in there. He’d put the fire out and it was
bound to get unbearably cold. Instead of dwelling on it he fell asleep faster
than he would have thought possible. Stiles on the other hand lay curled up
into a ball, trying not to let his teeth chatter, on that god forsaken couch
that had looked comfortable about thirty minutes ago.
 
“This is ridiculous,” he glared at the dark fireplace. “Isn’t it supposed to be
summer soon? Why is it so damn cold.”  He sat up, wrapping the blanket around
his shoulders to fend off a draft. Fumbling around in the dark and nearly
tripping over a table he found a candle and match, after several failed
attempts to light it he finally succeeded.
 
He waited a moment to make sure his commotion hadn’t woken Derek up; the steady
breathing coming from the other room told him he was safe for now.
 
Looking around he decided to inspect the map further, tracing the mountains and
towns he’d never heard of. He couldn’t believe Derek had been to all the places
that were filled in, he would have to ask him tomorrow. And more than that he
wanted to know whose names were on it.
 
Stiles had always liked a good mystery, and since sleep was eluding him he
figured snooping wasn’t above him, he just had to be really quiet… Trying to
sift through the papers on the desk and discern what they were  proved
difficult in the limited light of his single candle. After rustling through a
book that was definitely not written in english an old looking folded piece of
paper fell onto the floor.
 
Stiles opened it slowly, careful not to tear it. It was huge. A drawing of an
enormous tree, with names encircled by branches and leaves. Stiles recognized
it as a family tree, he had one too, though not nearly this elaborate. On
closer inspection he realized that most of the names had small Xs next to them,
just like on the map. Derek was on there, but two other names jumped out at him
Cora and Peter, they had the question marks on them…
 
“So.. If this is his family. The Xs probably mean deceased.” Stiles felt a
sense of dread, it had seemed strange to him earlier that the alpha didn’t seem
to have a pack. “Isn’t he supposed to be a leader? But then where are the other
werewolves..” He put the tree down and picked up another paper that looked like
a news article; the headline read: “Hale Fire Unresolved By Local
Authorities.”, something about that was oddly familiar.
 
Before he could read on the room went dark. He dropped the parchment when a
hand encircled his wrist. “D-Derek?” He stuttered out, trying to reign in his
fast beating heart. Then he was being lifted bridal style and carried across
the room and before he could protest he was being tossed onto the bed.
 
“Clearly you can’t be trusted on your own.” Derek spoke from somewhere in the
darkness of the little room.
 
“Ha ha yeah.. Look I’m sorry for snooping, but can you blame me? I was
curious!” Stiles yelped when Dereks hands wrapped around his calves pulling him
close till he was flush against Dereks waist.
 
The mans hands came up to pin his wrists to the bed and then his lips were
against Stiles’ ear, nibbling lightly, just when Stiles was hoping for more the
presence above him was gone and he was being covered with a blanket and the bed
was dipping on the other side as Derek made himself comfortable.
 
Stiles let out a breath, “What do you want from me?” he was sick of the
anticipation of.. well he wasn’t sure what exactly. But the build up and let
down were messing with his teenage hormones and it was going to get on his
nerves.  
 
“Go to sleep.” Derek’s voice was gruff, like he was fighting for control.
Stiles couldn’t help but look forward to what might happen when he did. Unless
it was bad, in which case he would like to avoid it at all costs.
 
“Fine.” he could be gruff too. Sort of. Ok it was less than intimidating on him
but hey a guy had to try, right? so instead of pouting he rolled over and
pretended that his situation was super normal and he wasn’t going to die at any
moment.
 
Stiles was faced away from the man sleeping beside him. Despite how tired he’d
thought he was he lie awake for the better part of an hour… and it had nothing
to do with the fact that, he was “disappointed” to find out, the bed wasn’t
quite so large as he had thought when he glimpsed it earlier, why was he always
wrong about furniture? Although it was definitely not as small as his own bed,
or nearly as uncomfortable as that damned couch. Every time he shifted or
rolled he came in contact with hot skin that sent frustrating jolts of
electricity and warmth to a part of his body he was trying hard, no pun
intended, to ignore.
 
The room was pitch black and growing increasingly colder by the minute.Stiles
pulled the thick blanket more around himself trying to avoid the inviting heat
of the sleeping werewolf. His eyes blinked heavily as he finally began to get
warm and take his mind off the predicament that would be waiting in the
morning. And quite honestly he was surprised that Derek hadn’t tried anything
after everything that had happened that day. But he had to remind himself to be
happy about that.
****
 
Sleep must have found Stiles during his ponderings because he awoke to a very
warm very hard muscular frame underneath him. He was a little confused at first
but then he remembered his pseudo captor that he was currently clinging to.
With an arm over the broad chest of said captor and a leg thrown over his hip
he was all but straddling his perfect form.
 
Stiles also became painfully aware of the massive hard on he was sporting and
rather provocatively pressing into Derek’s hip. He had about two options: Stay
where he was and continue poking Derek till he woke up OR he could stealthily
slide off him onto his own side of the bed.
 
He made for option two. Slowly he began dragging his leg off the other mans
lap- that action was cut short by the low growl that rumbled through his chest.
It only took stiles a few seconds to realise that his knee had rubbed against
an appendage that he really should have remembered to avoid. That was the last
time he ever tried to be stealthy!
 
As fast as he could Stiles rolled off the heat source onto his own side of the
bed. He wished more than most things that he could use the blankets to cover
himself, but apparently he had kicked those to hell in the time he had spent
asleep, and they currently hung uselessly off the end of the bed. Never again
do I walk with strange werewolf men to slightly less creepy than  expected
cottages in the woods, stiles thought to himself as he felt the bed shift
beside him. In an instant derek was between his legs; Stiles’ knees bent on
either side of his hips.
 
Dereks hands on both sides of stiles head kept him from actually touching the
boy, except where stiles thighs met his sides. Noticing the contact Stiles
spread his legs further; realizing too late the message it might send and how
thoroughly exposed he was under the nightshirt he wore.
 
“Are you afraid?” Derek asked, his voice low and Stiles didn’t want to admit
that he was, so he didn’t, even though it would be obvious to anyone
(especially a werewolf) if the way his eyes were squeezed shut and his face was
turned sideways were any indication.
 
“No.” He breathed out. A low menacing chuckle rumbled through the alpha.
 
“You’re lying to me again..” He inhaled deeply at the nape of stiles’ neck a
continued, “I can smell it on you.” he removed one of his hands from the bed
and forced Stiles to face him with an iron grip. “Look at me.”  he commanded
when the teen didn’t comply and weakly tried to push him away he gripped his
wrists harshly, pinning them to the bed on either side of his head. “Open your
eyes. Now.” This time it was intended to inspire fear not defiance, which it
did.
 
Stiles eyes fluttered open, blurry at first but eventually adjusting to the
dark. Even though he couldn’t see much, he could definitely distinguish two
glowing red eyes just above him staring into his own and the glimmer of
elongated canines in the moonlight. “What are you going to do?” he whispered,
sounding pathetic even to his own ears.
 
Derek shifted to hold both of stiles hands above his head with one of his own.
His free hand caressed its way up stiles calf and to his inner thigh. His rough
clawed hand teased the soft burning flesh, he dragged his nails closer and
closer to the hem of the shirt that had ridden almost all the way to stiles’
hip. Derek gazed down heatedly to the tent that was formed under the thin
material, a small  wet dot seeping through. He could smell it immediately the
scent driving him mad with lust. His own erection pushing painfully on the
confines of the sleeping pants stiles had insisted he wear.
 
“Please..” the word slipped past Stiles’ lips so quiet derek almost didn’t hear
it.
 
“What do you want me to do?” Derek whispered seductively in his ear.
 
“Don’t.” He said more adamantly that time to make up for his earlier weakness.
Derek laughed and rested his head ons stiles’ shoulder, his hand remaining on
the boys thigh though it was no longer clawed.
 
“If I believed you really didn’t want me to, I might leave you to take care of
it yourself.” He sighed when Stiles tensed beneath him. “But I don’t and you
do. I’ve been smelling on you all day.” Stiles made a huffing noise.
 
“Thats because I’m a sixteen year old boy! Its not my fault I can’t control my
raging hormones.” he glared up at derek. “Whats your excuse, huh?” Derek let go
of his hands now, shifting so he was sitting upright allowing Stiles to sit
criss cross in front of him. Stiles rubbed his wrists, purposefully not making
eye contact with Derek, he could tell there would be matching bruises on both;
it annoyed him immensely that he found it kinda hot and his heart picked up
again. Thinking about the werewolf hovering over him made him wish he’d asked
him to do something very different.
 
“I’m a werewolf two days from the full moon. I think you might have better
control than I do.” Derek replied tone heavy with sarcasm. He paid attention to
stiles’ rapid heart beat that didn’t seem to be slowing. “Did you say sixteen?”
that fact had just been processed in his frenzied mind.
 
“Umm, yeah..” Stiles had no idea how old derek was or how werewolves even aged.
 
Derek cleared his throat, for some reason he had expected the boy to be at
least eighteen. It certainly would have made him feel less creepy. “Oh.. maybe
I should just go sleep in the other room.” He didn’t move though still unsure.
He really needed this but if a kid that young wasnt ready who was he to make
the decision for him?
 
“You can stay.. just no funny business..” Stiles said quietly; adding a tiny
probably wouldn’t have been a good idea even if he seriously debated it. If
anything happened where could it go realistically? and where would he or Derek
even want it to lead?

 That was Stiles. Always asking the tough questions.
