Your lipstick stains On the front lobe of my left side brains
There was no doubt in Derek's mind that Esther had an impact on him.
From the moment he met her he was constantly thinking about her. She was his first thought in the morning, his last thought at night, she was somehow always on his mind.
And that terrified him.
Yes, big bad Alpha Derek Hale was scared of a feeling. One of the reasons Derek never opened up to people was because he seemed to always be losing them. First his family, then Erica and Boyd, Aiden, Allison, is there really a need to continue? But no matter what he told himself, he could not shake Esther from his mind. He was falling in love.
I knew I wouldn't forget you And so I went and let you blow my mind
It was clear that Derek wouldn't be forgetting about Esther any time soon, and there was no point in torturing himself by avoiding her. So, he inevitably ended up spending more time with her. And he was amazed at everything she could do.
There wasn't a skill she wasn't good at! She could cook, she could skate, she could sing, dance, write, oh my God he could go on for ages. She was perfect. If not to the world, to him.
Your sweet moonbeam The smell of you in every single dream I dream
Derek found himself dreaming about Esther. It was honestly so refreshing to be able to go to bed and dream about something other than watching your pack being ripped to shreds by some supernatural force.
Whenever Esther was around, he felt better. About life, about himself, about everything in general. Something he hadn't felt in a long time.
I knew when we collided You're the one I have decided is one of my kind
Derek had decided he wanted Esther for his mate. Hands down. He was head over heels for her, and couldn't imagine himself with anyone else. But how the hell was he gonna tell his girlfriend he was a freaking werewolf?
Hey soul sister
Esther was officially the most laid back person he had ever met in his entire life. When he told her about the Supernatural, rather than being freaked out, she was excited. Like, excited as in the first words out of her mouth were, "oh my God, my boyfriend is from Twilight."
And as silly as it may sound, that alone told Derek all he needed to know. Esther was the one for him.
Ain't that mister mister on the radio, stereo? The way you move ain't fair you know
The thing Derek loved most about Esther was how graceful and gentle she was. She could do everything and anything with ease, and it never took her long to catch onto things. And he loved that.
Hey soul sister
Esther always seemed to notice Derek staring at her. Whenever she looked up at him, she'd catch him already gazing at her somehow. When she asked him about it, he answered,
"I don't want to miss a single thing you do tonight."
