Mr. Hale (Sterek)

"Guys, we're home!" Stiles called into the house as Derek opened the door.

"Your back!" Isaac exclaimed, running up to hug Stiles. Stiles chuckled hugging Isaac back and pressing a kiss to his forehead.

"Can you go and tell the pack we're having a meeting in the living room, five minutes." Isaac nodded and scurried off.

"Are you sure about this?" Derek questioned Stiles.

"Are you?" He replied before Derek could answer Isaac came back into the room and told them that the pack was there, minus Cora who only drops by even now and again.

Allison, Erica, Lydia and Liam sat on the couch with Scott, Boyd, Jackson and Isaac between their legs while Peter lingered behind them, standing. Derek sat down on one of the armchairs, Stiles taking a seat next to him on the arm. He placed a comforting arm around Derek's shoulders and Derek lay a thankful hand on his knee in return.

"There is something important Derek and I need to talk to you about." Erica and Allison looked at Lydia oddly as she held her breath in hope, were they dating?

"I've been offered a job, teaching at a school for supernaturals." The pack smiled, proud of their alpha. Lydia was a little off put that they weren't dating but let it slide, also happy for her alpha. Derek squeezed Stiles' knee signalling for him to continue.

"Derek and I talked about it, we've decided to transfer you since it's a good few hours away." A few pack members faltered with their smiles.

"What?" Scott asked.

"It will only be for a year then you're all free to come back here or get your own places." Derek quickly said.

"Guys, this is a big opportunity for Derek. If you really disagree you can stay here with me but please be considerate." Stiles said with a slight warning in his voice, hoping that the pack would catch on about how much their alpha cares about their opinions.

"I'll go." Erica said with a smile aimed to raise her alpha's spirits, soon the rest of the agreed and they were all set. Stiles was informed that the pack had already eaten and sent them to their rooms, just packing little things for now.

Derek and Stiles ordered a pizza to share and sat on Derek's bed, discussing their worries for the future. Stiles adored how open Derek was being with him, he didn't want it to end but he had school tomorrow and he had to tuck the pack in (Something they insisted on him doing).

Derek watched from his doorway at the end of the hall as Stiles went into each room and kissed each of their foreheads, telling them how proud he was and how much he loved them.

Stiles kissed Jackson on the forehead and then began to head to his own room but Derek's words stopped him.

"No kiss goodnight for me?" Stiles froze with his hand on his door, after a moment Derek realised how flirtatious that sounded. He was about to apologize when Stiles took a leap of faith, he strode forward and softly pressed his lips to Derek's. It only lasted for a moment before Stiles pulled away mumbling something along the lines of 'Night, Sourwolf.' then heading to his room.

Derek grinned to himself, hoping it wasn't a dream and praying Stiles wouldn't regret it.

Stiles leaned against his closed door with a hand over his mouth, he just kissed Derek Hale and he liked it.
