It's Creepy If You Squint Mansion, Thursday afternoon

[justlurkinghere]

So, it was Thanksgiving and Derek--shockingly--was not in a social mood. Because he was an outgoing social butterfly on most days, you know.

That would be why he was eating Chinese food and watching whatever movie marathon he could find on TV. More accurately he was picking at the food and looking morose.

Family based holidays were no fun for him.

[[For that human shaped thing]]

"I don't know what you've done since then."

[robinonadderall]

"Nothing gross," he said defensively. "Besides it's my mouth; I'll put it wherever I want."

[justlurkinghere]

STILES. RETHINK THIS.

[robinonadderall]

"What?" He refused to take back his questionable statement!

[justlurkinghere]

"Seriously."

[robinonadderall]

"Yes, seriously," he said. "I'll lick all this Chinese food and claim it as my own, don't think I won't."

[justlurkinghere]

"No you won't."

Don't make this a challenge. Oh god.

[robinonadderall]

"What makes you think that I won't?" he asked.

[justlurkinghere]

"Because I won't let you." This was not going to end well.

[robinonadderall]

You brought this on yourself, Derek. "This" being Stiles practically diving for the Chinese food so he could attempt to claim all of it.

So, yeah, nice going.

[justlurkinghere]

"Damn it, Stiles!" Derek shoved his fried rice to the side, hooking an arm around Stiles chest to keep him from making a mess.

[robinonadderall]

"Don't dare me then!" Stiles struggled some in Derek's hold, reaching both arms out in an attempt to at least grab one of the cartons. It wasn't going well. "This is cheating. You're cheating right now."

[justlurkinghere]

"How is this cheating?" Derek snapped, wrapping both arms around him now that his food was safe. And then picked him up with ease. Sorry he wasn't sorry about his magic werewolf powers.

[robinonadderall]

"This whole thing is cheating!" he said, using one flaily hand to gesture at their current position. "I can't do this to you, so cheating."

And not at all an awkward position to be in! Really.

[justlurkinghere]

"I'm sorry you have the upper body strength of a twelve year old girl." Derek, that was rude.

[robinonadderall]

"Hey!" Stiles wriggled around, trying to turn enough to give Derek a glare. "Uncalled for!"

[justlurkinghere]

Derek smirked at him, dropping his hold suddenly.

[robinonadderall]

Stiles made a noise that was most definitely not a shriek when he dropped. He at least landed on his feet, but his thrown off balance made him fall right into Derek.

Why must they flirt like children?

[justlurkinghere]

Because they had a combined maturity level of about eight years old.

There was that.

Derek snorted at the noise, only reaching out to stabilize him. Only for that.

[robinonadderall]

Suuuuuure.

Once Stiles was sure he wasn't going to land on his ass he turned around to face Derek in order to glare. Glare so hard. That was the plan anyway, but a second before he implemented it Stiles started to smile. "I'm taller than you!"

[justlurkinghere]

"No you're not." He totally was. By about an inch.

Also, wow were they in close now.

[robinonadderall]

"Dude, I'm looking down at you." The closeness was necessary to prove Stiles' point! "Aww, short little werewolf."

[justlurkinghere]

Plus, if they stepped back, it was admitted defeat. So.

"I can throw you across the room."

[robinonadderall]

"I'd be taller than you either way."

[justlurkinghere]

"You'd still be across the room." Because that was soooo likely to happen.
