*Jordan*
Getting off shift and walking into our room, I can't help the smile that forms on my face. Derek doesn't open up. His walls are so high it's hard to break them down. Even though we are mates, it did take me a while to get behind those defenses. He's only ever that vulnerable with me. I'm glad he decided to speak with Stiles even without going into detail. He still told Stiles parts of that trauma.
"I'm proud of you," I spoke quietly walking up to him.
He looked up from his book with a confused pout that I kissed. He squinted his eyes.
"I'm proud because you let Stiles into your walls."
"Barely," he grumbled and I rolled my eyes.
"Okay so you let him peak through a small crack, but still you opened up, Der."
He shrugged body language reading that he'd rather we talk about anything else.
"How was your day?"
"It was good. Nothing really exciting."
"Everything has calmed down since the Nematon started to calm."
I nodded walking over to the dresser and began removing my belt and badge. Once comfortable I climbed into bed next to my boyfriend cuddling up.
"I love you."
He kissed the top of my head.
"I love you too."
