Come Back To Me

Ch. 5

DEREK POV

One feeling I did not like was waking up without Stiles. I had gotten so use to getting up with someone it was weird feeling alone. But it was a feeling I got the next morning when I rolled over and what Stiles called his side of the bed was empty and cold. I threw on grey sweats and jogged down the stairs and into the kitchen.

"Stiles?"

"In here"

"What are you doing?" He had just about shoved himself into the fridge and the only thing sticking out was his legs.

"Jeez. How many times do I need to tell you to go grocery shopping. I'm starving"

"Well maybe you should stay the weekend. We can go grocery shopping and I'll buy you all the food you want"

"Oh so you don't think It's 'too dangerous' anymore?" he asked mocking me, and even throwing in air quotes. My mouth opened for a response when we heard a rumble come from the living room. I motioned for him to stay in the kitchen, but Stiles being Stiles followed me. We rounded the corner and I could hear his breathing had hitched at the sight before us. Kate stood alive and well in my living room.

"Kate?"

I lunged for her but she held up a hand in defense and I gave her a few seconds before I was about to kill her "Don't worry love I'm not here for you, not this time" she shifted her gaze and her eyes fell directly to Stiles "I'll be seeing you real soon" the blue dust appeared and she was gone. Stiles' eyes turned towards me and I knew what would be coming next.

"Well shit" Stiles breathed.

DEAN POV

Stiles had snuck out to go see Derek. It became a regular thing and I honestly wasn't as angry as I thought I would be. It left more time for me and Cas. We were sitting on the couch, he was wrapped in my arms as we sat enjoying the comfortable silence. For a moment it felt like I was actually able to take a second to breathe. Then I heard the front door burst open. It was then the universe did it's job, and rained in on our parade. Derek came in practically dragging Stiles through the door.

"It's happening" was all Derek said. Which was enough to bring Cas and I to our feet "Kate's here, and she wants Stiles"

"Argent? What would a hunter do with a spark?" I asked.

"I don't want to find out" Cas interjected "Stiles is staying home until this is over"

Derek nodded his head in agreeance "Scott and Isaac know everything we can each take turns on watch"

"That's a start. Keep him surveilled so she doesn't catch ya with our hairs down"

"Uh hello!" Stiles shouted "You guys are talking about this like I'm not here. Care to ask my opinion?"

"No" we all said at once.

"You'll probably want to try something that'll get you killed and right now we can't take that chance"

"Okay Derek take first watch until Scott or Isaac get here. Dean and I are gonna go make a plan" Derek grabbed Stiles' hand taking him up to the room.

"I know there's a lot going on" I shouted up the stairs "-but keep that room door open"

I looked back at Cas and there was obvious fear in his eyes and I took his hand trying my best to reassure my husband.

"No one is taking our son" I promised as I pulled him into my embrace.

STILES POV

Uncle Sam came into town the next day. Derek had been staying at my house sleeping on the couch of course. I worried about him a lot my pops was always a little hard on him, and now with this Kate thing I could tell he was beating himself up. Convincing himself that it's all his fault.
