Request - Peter & Derek Hale "Secret"

Basedon the clip from the song "Colors" by Halsey

"Back again?" Derek stood in the door opening, smiling from ear to ear because he saw you again, before he stepped aside to let you in.
"You'll have to share me today. My uncle has decided I desperately need his company today." He hugged you before he took your coat.
"Even though I'd rather be alone with you, of course. Tolerate him, ok?"

You smiled. You did more than just tolerate Peter. To be honest... he was the reason you were with Derek in the first place. He was the reason you were there today, but Derek couldn't know that. Not now, not ever.
"You know me. I'm always nice, am I not?" You raised your eyebrows, walking in and flopped on the couch. That wasn't because you had the best view on Peter from there, of course. Not at all. You took out your phone, pretending you were checking your texts, but in truth you shot a few photos of the man, so you could remember how he looked like when you had to go home, or when he decided he had lingered long enough on Derek's hospitality.
"Besides, he's your uncle, Derek. Of course I'll tolerate him." You smiled at Peter, who winked back. Maybe he wasn't as oblivious as his nephew was... something that did scare you a bit. Having a secret crush was nice, but having it out in the open? Nope. Not ready for that.

You quickly put your phone away when Derek sat next to you. Let him think you had just checked your phone, he didn't need to know. You'd die if he would find out, probably. You tried to look away from Peter, whose smirk only grew bigger.

He knew, didn't he? He couldn't know... But still.
"What's the matter, Y/N?", Peter said. "I can hear your heartbeat here. You're so happy to see my nephew again?"

Bastard... you thought, but you put a smile on your face, as you had promised Derek you would, wrapped your arm around your boyfriend.
"Yes, Peter. That is what people who like each other do when they see each other again. Not that you would understand anything of that, of course."

That was how it all had started. He had some remark with a double meaning, and you started to bitch back. But in the mean time you had almost your entire photo roll full with photos of the man, lots and lots more than you had of Derek. Which should be a shame, but you just needed it.

"Come on, Y/N... just show me that app you just told me about." Derek made a grab at your phone, and before you could take it back, he had it and he accidentally opened the photo gallery.

Next time you had to password protect it... You were considering running out, but you knew that wouldn't make much sense, so you just looked at Derek, who was just staring at the little screen.

"I don't even want to know, do I?", was the only thing he said after being silent for way too long. A silence that wasn't even broken by Peter this time.
"I'll just go... I hope the two of you have a lot of fun together." He wasn't even throwing you out, nor Peter. He just didn't want to be near you anymore.

"It's..." You stopped talking, trying to explain it. There was no explanation possible.
