Still Together || lostshieldandhammer

Stiles groaned, pushing back against the older man, hands gripping tightly at the desk as Chris thrust deep and hard inside of him. “L-love you too…” he gasped out sharply. He needed this… the reminder that they were alive, that despite everything they’d lost, they still had one another…

Blue eyes closed as he pressed kisses up to tye back of Stiles’ neck, biting and sucking a mark into pale skin. Chris continued to move before he slowed down, easing himself in and out as he leaned over, laying his body over Stiles’. “Do you want to cum like this, Stiles? Or should I flip you over so I can watch you fall apart for me?” He asked softly, hips rolling as he spoke, looking for that special bundle of nerves he knew drove his young lover insane with pleasure.

Derek nodded slowly. “I figured France would be safest for you both,” he answered quietly. “I need to make a few checks on other people but… I may join you by the holidays if you’d be willing to let me come and do so.”

“Of course we would!” Stiles said, reaching for Chris’ hand, holding it in his own. Derek nodded and smiled sadly.

“I was cleaning things out in here and I found a couple of things I wanted you two to have, to take with you.” He walked over to a table to retrieve what looked like an old, wooden box, which he handed to Chris. “I looked through it only briefly, just to know who it needed to go to… I didn’t know you and Peter had known each other back when you were younger. These are apparently letters… and a few other things frmo that time.” When Chris took the box, Derek moved ot hand a book to Stiles.

“Peter was finding out more and more about your magic, your gifts. Deaton was helping him. They put together a book for you to help you continue growing in your ability to use and control your magic.”

Chris had no problem with Derek joining them in France. He was the last Argent as Derek was the last male to the Hale family and Stiles was the last in his family as well. “The manor has plenty of room. I don’t intend to be hunting once we leave.” he assured, blue eyes widening a fraction when he saw the box, worn in a few places from age. He released Stiles hand to take it, opening it to look at a few of the yellowed letters and pictures Peter had kept hidden for years. “We did. Things got very complicated.” He didn’t want to go into detail, forcing himself to remain calm even as he wanted to cry. He watched as Derek explained the book, walking over to lay a hand on Stiles’ shoulder and leaning to kiss Stiles’ head. 

“Thank you, Derek. It means more than I can say.”

Stiles nodded slowly. “Yeah… I uh… I think that might make me feel a bit better,” he answered quietly. “Scott’s already half in love with this new kid… has him on the lacrosse team, got him doing afternoon stuff with the rest of the pack. No one’s gonna believe me if I say anything against him, you know?” He pulled back and glanced up at Derek slowly. “You and Peter are the only ones who actually take me seriously anymore.”

Derek nodded, leaning to kiss Stiles’ forehead. “I’ll take you to school in the morning if you want to stay here for the night? I know Peter isn’t back for a few days, but there’s always room in the bed.” he offered, not wanting Stiles to have to go though what he was feeling alone. “While Scott may brush that off as you being our mate, it’s only a part of it. Peter and I listen because your magic is never wrong. Your natural instincts paired with the level of magic that’s been dormant in your family for so long makes what you say relevant. Scott is still new to the world, so he doesn’t understand it like he seems to think he does.” His voice was bitter. Ever since the incident in Mexico, since Derek and Peter had helped Stiles recover from his issues post-nogitsune, Scott had started pulling away, and it pissed him off to see Scott do that to the one person he’d always had. “Just say the word and I’ll kick Scott’s ass for being such a horrible person lately.”

Stiles nodded slowly and hugged Chris tightly. “Okay,” he answered softly. He let go so they could head out to Chris’ vehicle and head to the Hale estate to meet up with Derek.

When they got there, Derek’s suv was parked in the driveway and the wolf was standing on the front porch. Stiles got out of Chris’ vehicle and ran up the steps, wrapping his arms tightly around Derek and hugging him close. Derek hugged him in return and glanced over at Chris, a sad smile on his face as he did so.

“Thank you both for coming,” he said quietly. “I just needed to go through some things with you both before I left…”

Chris let Stiles go, not liking the way this conversation would end. He didn’t want to go separate ways than Derek, but he couldn’t exactly stop him. He walked up the steps and paused to return the gesture, reaching a hand to rest it on Derek’s shoulder. “Once we pack, we’re headed to France.” he replied. “There’s nothing left for Stiles and I in this town but bad memories and pain.” He knew Derek would understand their reason and he looked around the manor for a moment before reaching for Stiles’ hand. “What did you want to talk to us about?”

Stiles flinched at first, but his magic settled at Derek’s touch, as it always did, and so the rest of his body was able to slowly settle, too. He stepped into Derek’s space and rested his head against the other’s chest, wrapping his arms around him tightly. He nuzzled into the wolf’s neck, scenting him, and then resting his cheek on Derek’s shoulder.

“New… person at school,” he said after a few moments. “I don’t know what he is, but he’s something and it’s not comfortable being around him. He was leering at me… following me around… looking for any excuse to get like right in my personal space. Nothing about me was comfortable around him.”

Derek frowned when he saw the flinch, concern growing. Stiles never flinched from him or from Peter, so the action put him on edge. As Stiles relaxed and leaned into him, he wrapped his arms around him. “Do you want me to swing by the school and help keep an eye on them?” he asked. “Wouldn’t be hard. If they tried anything, I could stop them and you’d know I was there which would help you stay calm.”

Stiles got dressed and walked back over to Chris, wrapping his arms around the other from behind, kissing his shoulder softly. “You’re all I have left now, Chris,” he whisepred softly. “Dad’s gone, Peter’s gone… Derek’s going to Canada… going to France… is that going to keep us from all this kind of trouble? Are you still planning on hunting once we get there? I can’t lose you, too…”

Chris lifted his hands to place them over Stiles’. “France is a bit quieter than Beacon. I won’t say we’ll be entirely removed, but I won’t go hunting. Hunting has done absolutely nothing but decimate everything I love. I can’ survive losing anyone else.” he said softly, lifting one of Stiles’ hand to kiss his palm. “Between my own inheritance, what Peter left us and my ability to sell weapons, we’ll be able to travel whenever you want.” he explained.
