Better Than What I Had Planned

Derek paced as he thought of every other possible explanation, but nothing came to mind. Stiles was cheating on him, that was it. He knew that eventually Stiles would grow bored with him, but he didn't think it would be this early in their relationship. 

Stiles is young, & not exactly sure of what he wants. He's an experimental bisexual, who's first real relationship was with Derek. And Derek knew that he wasn't what Stiles wanted, he might have been at first, but Stiles is young & what he wants changes daily. He could have any guy or girl he wanted, & Derek wasn't it anymore. 

Derek sighed & sat down on the couch, burying his face in his hands. He could hear the light skip of Stiles coming towards the apartment & looked towards the door. Stiles walked in, a huge smile on his face. 

"Ay sexy sour wolf." Derek nodded towards him & Stiles noticed his extra broody mood & sat down next to him. 

"You ok, baby?" Derek rolled his eyes. 

"Ya, I'm fine." Stiles rested his head on Derek's shoulder. 

"You don't have to lie to me, what's on your mind?" Derek scoffed. 

"You tell me." Stiles looked at him confused. 

"What?" Derek got up, moving away from Stiles. 

"Don't come in here acting like everything is fine, when you know damn well it's not." Stiles got up & wrapped one of his arms around Derek's waist. 

"Baby, what are you talking about?" Derek pushed Stiles away from him. 

"Stop lying to me! I know!" 

"You know what?!" 

"Stop lying! I can smell him on you! At least three times a week you disappear for almost two hours & then you walk in with the stench of another man all over you! Just.. stop lying to me." 

Derek's rant started off extremely angry, but it ended with him on the verge of tears. Stiles stood there frozen with shock. Derek tried his best, but he couldn't stop the tears from finally breaking lose. Stiles saw that & shook himself awake. He closed the gap between them & put his hands on Derek's face, but Derek refused to look at him. 

"Baby, look at me." Derek didn't listen to him so Stiles forced his head to make him look at him. 

"How could you think that? I thought we were past the I don't trust you stage." 

"It has nothing to do with trust, I can smell him on you. My heart wants to believe you would never do that, but everything says you are." Stiles sighed & wiped away the tears from Derek's cheek. 

"Derek, I love you. I don't want to be with anybody except you. You mean everything to me & you know I would never cheat on you." 

"Tell that to the guy who's scent is all over you." Stiles gave him a tiny smile. 

"I wanted it to be a surprise, now you've ruined it." Derek tilted his head in confusion. 

"Excuse me?" 

"I'm not cheating on you, I'm taking dance lessons." Derek couldn't help but laugh. 

"What?" 

"I wanted to take you out dancing. But I've seen the way you move those sexy hips of yours when you think no one's around, & you're really good. I wanted for one night not to be the clumsy goof, so I took up some lessons." 

Derek felt a smile go across his face, wider than any other. 

"Really?" Stiles nodded. 

"So you're not cheating on me?" Stiles laughed. 

"No. My teacher's a guy, a straight guy." Derek attacked Stiles' lips with his, & they stood in each others embrace for a while. 

"I'm sorry I doubted you." Stiles placed a kiss on Derek's nose.

 "It's ok, sourwolf." Derek smiled. 

"You might be a clumsy goof, but you're my clumsy goof." Stiles rolled his eyes, but smiled at Derek. Derek kissed Stiles' cheek. "So do I get to see what you've learned?" 

"Maybe." Derek laughed & held Stiles in his arms. They swayed a little & this made Stiles smile. 

"You know this isn't exactly the big date I had planned, but somehow it seems better." Derek smiled & kissed the top of Stiles' head. 

"I love you, Stiles." 

"I love you too, baby."
