Somewhere In Nebraska, Saturday Morning

[justlurkinghere]

Drive across the country, they said. It'll be fun, they said. It was lies. Derek had driven across the country with Laura and had it been at any time but too soon after the fire, they would have murdered each other.

Why he thought it would have been a good idea to accompany Stiles back to Beacon Hills after his first year of college was over... it was possibly a good bit of delusion that this would end somewhere other than being terrible.

Case in point, the god awful jeep of Stiles was overheated and needed to sit to cool. In the middle of Nebraska. God, Derek hated the midwest.

"We could go look at the largest tractor in three counties," Derek said, looking at one of the faded pamphlets of local activities he'd found.

[[For the guy, duh]]

If Derek woke Stiles up at dawn, Stiles would kill him.

Stiles rested his head against Derek's shoulder, closing his eyes for a moment. He wasn't about to sleep in his jeans but he didn't mind lying like this for a bit. "I don't think there's a hotel that you're going to approve of for the next hundred or so miles."

[justlurkinghere]

Rightfully so.

Derek snorted in agreement, running his hands through Stiles' hair. Yeah, sleep wasn't about to happen in his jeans either. "I'm sure we'll find one."

Maybe near Vale or Aspen.

[robinonadderall]

"It's really quiet." He wasn't used to all the nature sounds.

[justlurkinghere]

"No it's not. Listen."

Yep, there were bugs. And frogs. And in the distance there might have been a coyote.

[robinonadderall]

"You're so into this, aren't you?" he asked after a few moments of listening to nature.

[justlurkinghere]

"Yeah," Derek replied sheepishly. "You hate it."

[robinonadderall]

"I don't hate it." He wasn't that big of a fan, sure, but seeing Derek be into it was worth the whole thing.

[justlurkinghere]

"Could be worse," Derek teased. "We could have gone fishing too."

[robinonadderall]

"We're never going fishing."

[justlurkinghere]

"Agreed," Derek replied with a laugh. "Unless fishing is code for sex by the water."

[robinonadderall]

Stiles laughed. "Okay, that I'm all for."

[justlurkinghere]

"There's a plus to camping," Derek said, rolling them so Stiles was pinned beneath him. "No one can make noise complaints."

[robinonadderall]

"Should've known," Stiles teased. "The camping out in nature thing turns you on."

[justlurkinghere]

"You knew I was easy."

[robinonadderall]

"Yeah but this is different," he said, sliding his hands over Derek's arms. "You're being all cute. If you were a wolf you'd be wagging your tail right now."

[justlurkinghere]

Probably howling at the moon too.

Derek leaned down to just barely kiss him. "Would not." So would.

[robinonadderall]

"Would too," Stiles said, kissing Derek just as lightly. "I like you like this."

[justlurkinghere]

"Better than before?" Derek asked, tilting his head to kiss Stiles' neck. No biting yet. They'd have to see Stiles' dad too soon for that.

Damn that man.

[robinonadderall]

"We've had a rough afternoon," Stiles said, shutting his eyes and tilting his neck towards Derek. "Been awhile since we've fought like that."

[justlurkinghere]

"We haven't been stuck in the same spot without being able to resort to sex in a while," Derek drawled.

[robinonadderall]

"Aren't we resorting to sex right now?" he asked, playfully nudging his nose against Derek's.

[justlurkinghere]

"We've made up." Sorta. "I'm sorry I insulted your car."

[robinonadderall]

"I'm sorry for snapping at you," he said before kissing Derek again. "Now help me get my pants off."

[justlurkinghere]

"Oh, you romantic," Derek teased, kissing him again playfully before sitting up to remove his own shirt. The motion hit the top of the ten, causing the entire structure to shake from the force of it.

Which meant Derek looked pretty sheepish, clutching his shirt to his chest.

[robinonadderall]

Stiles grinned. "We're going to need to be careful."
