    Summary

    “Jesus,” Stiles says, when he sees Derek for the first time, and feels his face do that thing where it tries to smile. Derek, or the weirdly fresh-faced teenage version of Derek that he is now, doesn’t flinch at Stiles’ exclamation.

    He’s too busy flinching at everything else.

    Summary

    One thing that Stiles - that everyone, if they really stopped to think about it - knows for a fact about Derek is that he doesn't like to be touched.

    Stiles has probably noticed this more than anybody else for the simple reason that he almost certainly thinks about Derek more than anybody else does; it's kind of expected when you have a hopelessly debilitating crush on somebody. Not that he's admitting that.

    Summary

    “It’s an incubus,” Stiles says, dropping the enormous book down on the table in front of Derek for no other reason than that it sounds dramatic.

    Predictably, there’s no immediate cry of ‘oh, Stiles, you genius!’

    Summary

    "May I ask," Derek takes a moment to breathe, "why?"

    Stiles scoffs. "Why do you care, dude? I mean, it's not like the dislike isn't mutual."

    There is a silence, long and heavy, in which Derek stares out at the road and wonders if he really is so inept at showing his emotions externally. I'm in love with you, Derek thinks, how on earth did you get that so wrong? How on earth did I get that so wrong? Where did I fuck up?

    "Oh," Stiles says, all surprise and brief wonder. "It... isn't. Is it?"

    (Or: The one where Derek struggles with his words, Stiles struggles to be recognised for his abilities, and Scott Ships It)
