It Takes Three To Tango (TW&TVD FanFic)

The Hot Attic

As the two Sheriff's dinner breaks ended, they all said their goodbyes. Caroline followed Stiles out the door, and Stiles just had to ask, "Vampire speed running, right? Since you didn't have the car?" Giving a smirk, he nudged Care to get her to smile.

"Me? Do that?" giggling, Care couldn't help but stare into his eyes.

"If you want, you know I can give you a lift home." Stiles offered as he looked down, breaking the staring contest.

"I would love that."

Hopping into Stiles jeep, she suddenly had a great Idea. "Would you mind dropping me off at that Decor store near my house?"

"Not at all, but if buy anything you wouldn't have a car to put all the stuff in. I guess, I can stay and shop with you.." Stiles hoped she wouldn't mind him tagging along.

"I could use your jeep...and I'd love to spend the day with you." She said jokingly.

As they pulled into the parking lot, she was ready to tackle her idea.

"May I ask what we are shopping for today?"

"It's kind of a secret, but you'll find out soon."

As they walked into the store, Care couldn't help but grab a hold of Stiles hand. She noticed it was a little sweaty, but looking at him she knew he was still a little nervous around her. It felt good to be with someone again, and be able to do things like this. A couple hours flew by, and Stiles still wasn't sure what she was going to do with everything she was buying. He also didn't want to question it.

As they were loading paint cans, bedding and the actual bed to the top of his jeep, Stiles no longer could keep his tongue. "Okay I give up! What are you doing that you need this?" Looking at Care's smirk he sighs realizing she's not going to tell him. Rolling his eyes playfully he stalks to the drivers side trying to keep the smile from his face.

"You will see soon enough. Just be lucky this is all I have thought about needing for what I want to do", laughing at Stiles expression again, she gets inside the jeep and they make their way back to Care's.

"You have a freaking attic?! This is freaking awesome!" Stiles stares in awe at how big the room was. He has a feeling he is really going to like this room.

"I know right!? I have always wanted one! Wait, crap I didn't think this through...How am I going to get a bed up here?" groaning Caroline puts her head in her hands.

Walking towards Care, Stiles wraps her in an embrace. "Hey stop fretting, did you not notice the big window to your left?" Looking slowly to her left she puts her head in her hand again. But this time in realizing how right he was. She could feel Stiles shaking from laughter. Against her better judgement she joins him.

"Okay lets just go past that stupid moment and get to painting!" Looking at Stiles's face, who looked like he wanted nothing more than to book it out of there, she leans in and kisses him. Softly at first until he grips the side of her face and the other side of her hair. Deepening the kiss, Caroline's hands take hand fulls of his shirt to keep up with the kiss. Pulling back Stiles was trying to take in as much oxygen as he could, "Wow. Yeah, okay." grinning in triumph Caroline gets the paint and paint brushes, handing one to Stiles.

"Thank you, love" surprised by her own admission she looks to his face to see if it made him uncomfortable. Letting go of the unnecessary breath after seeing the smile on his face, she bends down to open one of the paint cans.

"Huh, that's a really nice color" Stiles said as he saw the deep green color.

"Wait, don't you want to bring up the bed before we paint? Cause knowing my luck we try to get it in and it falls right now the wet walls" laughing Care agrees with him.
