The room was dark as i walked in
Complete silence
Not even a creek of the floor boards
And honestly if anything made a sound right now i would throw up my heart
" you better have a good explanation for coming here at this hour "
" geez!! The hell is wrong with you Derek?"
"I could ask you the same Stilinski, its my house after all and its 8pm
Shouldn't you be sleeping ?"
Stiles: I had a nightmare and this was the only place I thought of to go to
Derek: why not Scott's? Wouldn't that have been a better choice ?
I looked at him dejected
Stiles: I....I only thought of you when i saw the spare keys on my desk back home
He sighed
De: did you lock the door?
Stiles: yeah, and don't worry my dad knows I'm not home
De: you told him ?
Stiles: texted he'll probably see it in the morning
De: well atleast you did something to not give your old man a heart attack for once
Have you eaten?
My stomach growled before i could respond
Stiles: I ate early and light
De: yeah right
Heat up some water, im sure there some noodles in the cupboard, just don't take the spicy one's Cora wont hesitate to end you
Stiles: thanks sourwolf
He rolled his eyes and went upstairs
I helped myself to the noodles and cleaned up once I got done
I went upstairs and found the door slightly opened
I could make out Derek's silhouette on the bed
I went in making sure not to wake him and just sat next to him
He looked at peace than when he's awake
Stiles: it sucks losing family doesn't it
There's never a comparison of any kind to what any other person could feel and what you would feel if you lost someone
Hell I sometimes hate my mom and every birthday of hers, I'm reminded of every one of her episodes
I get vivid hallucinations of my dad blaming me for her death and just when i was getting better, the cycle starts again
Never a clean slate
My dad tries to convince me im not responsible but its never easy to just forget
Im glad you still have Cora, she's feisty as hell and snaps you back to your senses
I wish I had someone like that
I didn't come over because I thought of you but because I feel safe
I chuckled
Stiles: For someone who hates my guts, you sure do
I like the banter between us every time
Keeps me smiling when i know i get on your nerves do badly and see your face contort
I take it as a win, gets me through my day
So keep doing it for as long as you can tolerate me
I got up and kissed his forehead
' Good night sourwolf '
Derek's POV
Of course i listened to everything he said
It was impossible not to
Heightened senses and all
As he was about to leave when I held onto his hand
D: stay
I pulled him to the empty side of my bed and he automatically snuggled to me
De: feel better?
Stiles: yeah
De: good, get some rest
Stiles: thank you, Derek
De: amytime, Mieczyslaw
@@@@@@
I woke up early to a snoring Stiles
He was quite adorable I must say
My door swung open and I immediately signaled for some quite
Cora: now your text makes sense
'Come in with less noise please '
I know you never use please to me
She whispered
De: well it wasn't just for me now get out
You don't want to scare him
Cora: fine
De: he also took some of your stashed noodles so take my card and replace them if necessary
Cora: I'll let it go this once
De: why?
Cora: coz you look bat shit happy even without a smile
Keep him close
She walked out and shut the door reasonably
Five minutes later his alarm went off and he tried to reach for the phone, failed to do so and i ended up turning it off for him
Stile: morning?
De: morning, slept well?
Stiles: hmm
De: good
Anything else you want to let off your chest?
Stiles: a lot but trauma dumping on you isn't something I want to do in one day
De: trust me last night wasn't something i thought i was going to sleep on with all that going through my head
Stiles: I'll take it down a notch
De: ill take it
He got up and headed for the bathroom
Stiles: Derek?
De: yeah ?
He came up to me and kissed me
Stiles: thank you
I broke into a smile as soon as he shut the door
' Yup, I'm keeping you'
