[ open au ] moon baby

[benchwarming]

My pain is caused by my pleasure
And my soul mate lives in your body
I can't get you out of my head
It never goes away

( an au where stiles is a werewolf.
can be because he was bitten by peter hale instead of scott,
or possibly after he was offered the bite.
maybe he was always a werewolf. )

Do you want to? [ Raising a brow. ]

[benchwarming]

Would you let me?

[ It's equally serious and asked with a quirk of his brow. ]

[sassywolf]

I would.

[ How they had come to get on this topic is now something that Derek is actively wondering however. ]

[benchwarming]

[ It's Stiles. Even as a werewolf he still has his mile a minute brain. ]

Well, that's good to know. [ he shifts, settling in Derek's hold. ]

[sassywolf]

[ Well, they're going to have a hard time moving from this topic now that Derek's thinking about it in a little more detail. ]

Yeah...

[ He bit down on his bottom lip, imagining Stiles following through on that front and wow. He needed to stop thinking about it or this was going to get awkward. ]

[benchwarming]

[ Stiles notes the extended silence from Derek and then turns his head a little, smirking. ]

Now you're thinking about it, aren't you.

[sassywolf]

[ He breathes out though his nose. ]

Maybe.

[benchwarming]

There's something I wasn't expecting.

[ But his tone is curious and lighthearted, and he bites at Derek's chin after he says it. ]

[sassywolf]

[ He growls in a low almost intimidating manner but tilts his head in such a way that he finds his throat bare. ]

[benchwarming]

[ Stiles is surprised that Derek does that, but he nudges his nose against his neck but doesn't bite down. Acknowledging Derek doing that without making him submit. ]

[sassywolf]

[ He lets go of a ragged breath as he feels Stiles nose against his neck. ]

Is it strange?

[benchwarming]

[ He brushes his lips over Derek's neck, almost teasing, before he pulls back a little, head tilting curiously. ]

Is what strange?

[sassywolf]

[ He leans into the light touch, eyes falling closed. ]

To you.

For me to want this.

[benchwarming]

What? No, [ Stiles says with a sharp shake of his head, curling a hand around the back of Derek's neck. ] Still honestly trying to get over you wanting me. You wanting me to top is just nothing compared to that.

[sassywolf]

Really? [ Because that seems odd to Derek. ] Why?

[benchwarming]

Because I'm me? I'm research guy who got kidnapped by your uncle and bit by him. I got Scott bitten because I like to sneak around. I'm awesome at helping the people I fucked over, but I still get people into trouble. I'm just the weird ADD kid who can't focus.

[ He looks away as he says it, as if not wanting to see Derek's reaction. Normally he doesn't voice such thoughts out loud, feeling melodramatic if he does, but right now... he can't stop himself. ]

[sassywolf]

[ Derek pauses, watching Stiles sympathetically for a moment before reaching out to touch him and remind him that he's here. That they're here and that they're now bound to each other. ]

What I see is some sometimes annoying teenager who sticks his neck out too far to help others, and is selfless and reliable when it counts most. One that spends maybe too much time researching so he can get an edge on whatever happens and remains incredibly down to earth so the rest of us don't just... lift away.

[benchwarming]

[ Stiles leans into the touch and looks back at Derek, giving a small snort at the very end. ]

You make the pack sound like a bunch of balloons. [ But he rubs his cheek against Derek's hand. ] Thank you.

[sassywolf]

Well, we are a pack. [ He reminds Stiles casually, giving Stiles a little squeeze in response. ]

[benchwarming]

[ Stiles settles himself closer against Derek, as if that were possible, pressing his cheek into his hand. Way to kill the mood, Stiles, he thinks, but he also thinks this kind of heart to heart was more important. ]

[sassywolf]

[ On the upside, this is only the start of their day together which, now that Derek is thinking about it, feels almost like a honeymoon.

Moon. He doubts that was intentional.

He's leaning into Stiles' hand regardless and nuzzling against it. He wants to ask Stiles if they're just going to spend the day like this. Talking about things and being close like this but honestly, Derek can't bring himself to mind it. ]

[benchwarming]

[ Stiles had no true plan when he decided to skip and stay here. Honestly, he was just pissed at Scott and wanted to make sure Derek - his mate - was okay. Maybe it was a wolf thing but it didn't bother him too much.

He smiles a little at Derek and leans forward to kiss him again, slow and leisurely. He's still a virgin after all, and a little shy, but bold enough to do this. ]

[sassywolf]

[ Derek enjoys it, he enjoys Stiles being close in this way when months ago the thought was one that was stomped down as soon as it spawned. Now it was different, now Stiles was a werewolf. One of them and now his.

A rumble of contentment built in his chest as he kissed Stiles back, suddenly all too content with the idea of doing this all day. And maybe more.

If Stiles was up for it. ]

[benchwarming]

[ Derek wouldn't have needed to ask - Stiles felt like he could do anything with Derek. And he knew himself well enough that if he was uncomfortable, he'd stop the werewolf.

He curled a little closer to Derek, sliding his fingers through his hair and giving a soft pleased noise against Derek's mouth. ]

[sassywolf]

[ He tugged Stiles bottom lip between his teeth and gave a slight growl, suddenly feeling a little more playful with it now that Stiles had responded with such a sweet sound.

It had been a long time since he had last done this mutually or perhaps it was the first time, depending on which light you chose to take it under. ]
