What the hell is a Stiles? (![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} _stiles) wrote, |
He leant forward and took a couple of nachos, just out of politeness, before moving back and closer to Derek.
"I knew it!" Erica yelled, waving Love Actually accusingly at Stiles. "I knew you were our mom! When are we getting more brothers and sisters, moooom."
"Uh- um, not yet, kids. Not yet. Your dad and I have some plans, but we'll let you know. Take you out for ice cream and break the news gently," Stiles said, flushed again, inching closer to Derek.
"I don't want to watch Love Actually again," Isaac muttered, though Boyd shook his head next to him. There was no arguing with Erica, and she was already putting the disc in. Isaac huffed and grabbed some pizza, moving his leg over so that it touched Stiles'.
Stiles had never seen Derek like this with his betas. He'd never seen them in their down time, their pack time. He knew Derek was a good alpha. He knew the betas loved him. But seeing them interact was all the better, the little touches they exchanged constantly. Usually he only saw them when they were all together, when something terrible was happening.
Isaac turned to look at them then, and Stiles wondered if he'd said all of that out loud.
"We're all still gonna be pack when you have kids, right?" he asked softly.
Stiles didn't really want to feel like a mom, but it was honestly like having one of his own kids ask if the new baby was going to replace them.
"Isaac," Stiles looked to Derek for help, but no. No, he needed to do this. "Of course. Course you are. When we have pups it's just to make our pack stronger. To make us all stronger together. You'll like, be there to help them grow up and teach them how to be cool. And I mean, you can all have your own kids too, right?" He knew Derek's pack had included Derek's cousins, too. And betas could add to the pack just as well as and alpha and their mate, he was sure. Regardless, he didn't think Derek would be mad if any one of his betas found themselves with a pup. "Nothing is going to change us being a pack. Nothing. No matter how many babies Derek and I have-"
A stupid smile had begun to spread over his face as he neared the end of the sentence. He couldn't help himself. Four, maybe five pups? That was a good amount.
The intro to the movie started and Erica settled down leaning against Boyd and Isaac's legs, pulling the nachos towards her.
"I love you," Stiles whispered to Derek, turning so that he could press a kiss to his mate's lips. "So much."
