Derek ate his eggs silently as Stiles and Theo talked. Theo told Stiles how he got turned. Stiles told Theo about him living in Beacon Hills briefly. Derek couldn't care less. He was ready to leave.

"Do you think you'd ever come back?" Theo asked around a bite of pancake.

"Like as in live here again?" Stiles asked.

Theo nodded.

Stiles immediately shook his head. "I don't belong here."

"That's a shame. I was going to say if you ever moved back I'd have a reason to as well." Theo grinned at Stiles who blushed slightly.

Derek fought to ignore the jealousy creeping up.

"You never mentioned where you're  from." Stiles looked at Theo.

"Well originally here but I currently live in New York. Not much for Cali weather." Theo grinned earning a chuckle from Stiles.

"What about you?"

"Uh, Kansas." Stiles answered.

"Oh, so you're only a day away." Theo said with a large smile.

"Perhaps we'll run into each other at some bar again." Stiles smirked.

"I could never get that lucky twice." Theo shook his head.

Stiles bit his bottom lip trying to keep the blush from reaching his cheeks.

Derek felt his control slipping. The way Theo was flirting annoyed Derek but the way Stiles was responding to it was killing him.

"But seriously if you ever come through New York, look me up." Theo put an affectionate hand on Stiles'.

"I'd like to show you off to my pack." Theo winked.

"Oh, I got the acceptance to meet the pack, I didn't know this would get serious so quick." Stiles teased.

Derek had had enough. His jealousy was causing his wolf to bristle beneath his skin.

"Careful bringing a Winchester to meet the pack, hunters and wolves don't tend to get along." Derek sneered.

"Winchester?" Theo frowned.

"Wait, you're a hunter?" Theo asked taken aback.

"Oh did he forget to mention that last night? Don't feel bad, he didn't tell me for two years. Of course I never had my dick in his ass." Derek snapped.

Theo's jaw dropped slightly at Derek's outburst.

"Derek." Stiles snapped.

"What? It's true. I figured if you're screwing the guy he should at least know that." Derek jeered.

"Are you seriously still pissed about that?" Stiles huffed.

"Considering I trusted you with my life and more importantly my pack's life, yes, I'm 'still pissed about that'." Derek growled.

"I never did anything to put you or the pack in jeopardy. You know I would have taken a bullet for them and for you." Stiles snapped.

"Tell that to Allison and Aiden." Derek barked.

Stiles' breath hitched and the anger slipped from his expression.
 

Derek immediately regretted saying that

Derek immediately regretted saying that. He knew it wasn't Stiles' fault. He was just upset and he lashed out when he was upset.

Derek was hit with a strong scent of guilt and dissapointment making him regret it even more.

"Stiles, I'm sorry, I-" But before Derek could finish Stiles had stalked out of the restaurant.

"Fuck." Derek swore dropping his head into his hands.

"Hey, I'm sorry about last night. I didn't realize you and Stiles...well that you...I didn't mean to intrude." Theo stumbled over his apology.

"It's not your fault." Derek huffed.

"You clearly have feelings for him, and it sounds like you were close once. Why don't you tell him how you feel?" Theo shrugged.

"We didn't end things on good terms. I couldn't handle my feelings for him and I bailed. I skipped town and he never heard from me again." Derek rubbed his temples stressfully.

"You came back though." Theo said encouragingly.

"No, his brothers saved my life. They insisted I be under their protection. Stiles was the last person I expected to see. His brother's don't know what I am. He was pissed cause I left and I was pissed he was a hunter and never told me." Derek shook his head.

"He doesn't fit the description of a Winchester. I've heard they're malicious and unforgiving. Stiles didn't bat an eye at the fact that I was a werewolf, much less an alpha. He ate breakfast with us as if we weren't able to rip his throat out in a half second. He's funny and sweet and caring and passionate-"

"Yes, I get it." Derek snapped. "Trust me I'm well aware of how amazing he is."

Theo shut his mouth with a nod.

"I'm gonna go say goodbye and be on my way. I'm sorry again for encroaching on your territory." Theo gave a sympathetic smile.

"Don't be, Stiles isn't mine. He did what he did cause he wanted to. I couldn't have stopped him." Derek glared down at his empty plate.

"Breakfast is on me, I'll get it on my way out. And Derek, tell him, before you lose him for good." Theo gave a curt nod at a frowning Derek, before walking off.

"Stiles." Theo walked over to Stiles who looked up with blank expression. Stiles was good at putting on a front but Theo could smell the hurt and guilt.

"I'm really sorry about that, Theo. Derek can be...frustrating." Stiles clenched his jaw at the last word.

"Stiles, don't be so hard on him. I'm an alpha and he's protective of you. If I was in his place, I wouldn't be any better." Theo gave a sympathetic smile putting a gentle hand on Stiles' arm.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you." Stiles dropped his eyes in guilt.

"You had no reason to tell me. You didn't know what I was. Those aren't exactly good conversation starters." Theo smiled earning a grin from Stiles.

"Plus it's a fun story to tell the pack." Theo winked earning a larger grin from Stiles.

Derek watched with sad eyes as Stiles smiled at Theo. The fact that Stiles would never look at him the way he looked at Theo hurt him deeper than he'd like to admit.

Derek averted his eyes when Stiles pulled Theo into a sweet but quick kiss before Theo walked away.

Derek hesitated to go out there, he would have to face Stiles at some point but he didn't know if he could bear it.
