~Scotts POV~

It was a pack movie night when I first started noticing it.
Derek and Stiles were oddly close, Stiles was practically using Derek as a pillow. Derek was probably just tired. That's gotta be it, I mean what else could it be?

The next time I noticed something was weird was when we were about to ambush a witch.
Derek was telling us the plan when suddenly Stiles cut in, "Derek don't you think it would be safer if we went in in teams of two?" I got ready to jump to Stiles' rescue, I knew he would get himself killed sooner or later I was just hoping it was later.
"I see your point Stiles," Derek said nodding at him. I was shocked. Stiles had just disagreed with Derek and Derek had listened to him?! Stiles went on to add on to Almost everything now Derek said, I looked at the man in confusion, maybe Derek was really worried about the packs safety.
Yeah that was it.

"Derek's at the mall? With Stiles?!" I had called Lydia to see if she knew where Derek was and I have to admit, with all my enhanced senses and instincts I never saw that coming.
"Yeah Stiles really wanted to try and put some color in Derek's wardrobe," Lydia answered from the other end, "honestly I'm surprised Derek agreed knowingly."
"Stiles didn't even have to lie to him?!" It had to be black mail, that would explain everything. Yeah blackmail, that's definitely it.

Only it wasn't. By the time I realized what was actually happening it was too late.

"I know what's going on between you and Derek," I said to a surprised looking Stiles.
"I didn't think you would find out so soon," he said looking down. Was he blushing?
"Stiles I want you to consider the consequences before you continue doing this," I said solemnly.
"What? What are you talking about? If you're worried about what my dad will say I already told him, he was a little worried about the age difference but he's okay with it," Stiles said knitting his eyebrows together.
"What does age difference have to do blackmail? And how was your dad okay with this?!" I was so confused.
"What does blackmail have to do with me and Derek?" Stiles asked, he look as confused as I felt.
"You're blackmailing Derek aren't you?" I questioned, him and myself at this point.
"What? No, why would you think that?" Stiles looked at me like I was crazy.
I explained all the things I had noticed to make me reach my conclusion, "So naturally I assumed you were blackmailing him," I finished as stiles burst out laughing.
"Blackmail!" He managed to wheeze out, "oh my god that's hilarious."
"If that not the reason why are you and Derek getting so close?" I cocked my head. I had thought about this from the moment I realized it, how could it be anything but blackmail?
"Scott," Stiles said finally calming down, "me and Derek are dating.
Now it was my turn to burst out laughing, "Derek and you? Dating? Come on man at least air up something believable." As I said it I started to see how it made sense. Derek suddenly tolerating Stiles, their scents becoming hard to distinguish, and catching Derek smiling once in awhile lately. "Oh my god," I mumbled.
