Chapter Text
"Am I supposed to do this?" Stiles asks. "Can I do this? How can I go through with this?"
"What do you mean?" His dad asks him. They had finished eating the pizza awhile ago, and were sitting at the table with tea in front of them both. Stiles had barely touched his.
"I mean… Is this the right thing to do? What if everything just blows up in my face? I could just deny all the alphas this year. You said I could."
"Stiles…" His dad trailed off.
"What dad? I hate two out of the four, and the other two are apart of the Hatfield and McCoys! Who’s to say they even really want to mate with me?"
"Now hold on."
"Dad, dad. Peter would definitely be that sneaky, while–as much as it pains me to say Chris would play along with his father…"
"Stiles, I can tell you you're over thinking (more so than you already have) because we always knew you’d gain some attention because of my position." His dad paused, "To be honest, I have to say I’m surprised you only got four potential alphas. But I can tell you that Chris is trying to distant himself from his father… And Kate. But the man loves Alison. He's never going to truly leave until she decides to cut off ties herself."
Stiles made a murmur of agreement.
"And while yes I believe that the Hale boy would do that… I also think you might like that part about him." Stiles said nothing, a slight blush forming on his face. So what, family was important. "I do believe you have more than enough Hales on your side to make him regret it, if he hurt you. So… If you're not giving them a chance solely because you think they might have an ulterior motive I gotta ask you to think about it kid."
"Dad," he whined.
"I just want you to have a chance. I met your mother this way. She, well she won me over", he paused, "it helped that she wasn’t a stuffy old person like who my father hoped I’d accept."
Stiles laughed. "I know…"
"I’m sorry I’m the sherrif?"
"It’s okay, you’re right. I can try and see how things work out, and I’m right and say no at end of I feel like something’s wrong." It’s just that he had hoped he would find… Something on his first try like his dad. "I kinda really like Chris and Peter dad," Stiles finally admitted.
