The Preserve, Monday Morning

In Derek's defense, he had noticed an increase of energy today. But he'd assumed it was the sort of restlessness that came along with the season change.

Because he made poor life choices.

Like dragging Stiles' idiot self out running this week. Poor, poor choices. You'd think he would have learned from that singing day.

Derek stood still, listening for anything happening nearby. Because teal deer were a nuisance. Also, he was waiting for Stiles to catch up.
