Relationships and City Lights

The two were now standing in front of a large cliff, showing off a town in the distance. Soaking wet and breath unsteady from running.
:"And where exactly are we?"
Derek asked, looking at Stiles, who is watching the rain dripping down his hair. :"We are at a place, where I was going when I'm sad or angry, to calm myself." Derek's confused. Calming? What?
:"Stiles, this is just a cliff. In which way will this calm me?" Stiles chuckled :"You don't understand Derek, this isn't just a cliff. Come here." He said and led his friend to some kind of counter just meters away from the edge. Light slightly shinging out of it. Both placed their lower arms on it and looked inside.
:"It's the Beacon Hills Cliff, you know. Well....I call it like that. 'Cause if it's dark and raining, you won't hear a thing but the rain and won't see a thing but the city lights of the other town in the distance." Derek growled in annoyance. Great, another way to waste time. Stiles saw the look on Derek's face and said :"You know, just look at the town, ignore me and after a moment close your eyes and shut everything out except of the rain." After a moment of hesitation, Derek looked in the distance and tried to ignore every surrounding. Watching the city lights fading and adding. He closed his eyes. Nothing but the rain.
Nothing but the rain.
It worked. Derek calmed immediately, loosing his tensing muscles, chilling his senses, clearing his mind. Suddenly he woke up from his trance as he felt a head on his shoulder. Stiles got sleepy and is about to drift off, until Derek pinched him and he snapped into a straight position. :"I'm-I'm sorry. Just tired." Derek shrugged and looked again into the distance. So did Stiles. :"So did it work?" Stiles asked, whiping the rain from his face. Derek nodded :"Unbelievably yes." Stiles face lit up immediately. :"Yes! I knew it!" Soon they started a concersation about, just everything. From their lifes, to their school years, over to their relationships.
:"So you didn't got a girlfriend?" Stiles asked curious. :"Yeah, I'm single, why you're asking?"
:"Well." Stiles began, scratching the back of his head, blushing. :"I mean, you're quiet handsome and you've got a lot of muscles and humor and everything, how could it be possible, that a guy like you is single?" Derek blushed at the words of his friend and answered :"Well, maybe I'm waiting for the right one. You have to know that I've got dissapointed by a lot of women, so it's hard to trust any woman around here or somewhere else." Stiles nodded. Wow, he didn't expected to hear that from an alpha. :"And what about you, Stiles?"


:"Well, you might know I've got a crush on someone." Derek grinned :"By someone you mean Lydia Martin right?"
Stiles nodded and continued :"But some time ago, Scott opened my eyes and I saw that Lydia wasn't good for me. I mean she treated me like shit and I didn't even noticed it until then."
:"Yeah I saw that." Derek stated and stared into Stiles' eyes. How could it be possible that they are shining even brigther than before? His lips turning slightly purple from the cold outside. :"You wanna go home?" Derek asked. Stiles raised an eyebrow. :"Home like what? Your home? Or my one?"
:"My home." Derek said and pulled his jacket over Stiles. :"Mine is closer after all!" The aplha said and went the street up again, soon followed by Stiles, who said :"I bet the rain won't stop, until we reached your home.....and thanks for the jacket." Derek just nodded lightly blushing, going further up the streets. The trip was quiet, neither of them said a thing. Derek thought about the things Stiles said to him. "Handsome", "humor" is he serious? Derek didn't even tried to be funny. But either way, they laughed a lot, so is living with this crazy guy not that bad right? After all Derek wouldn't die, having this idiot over for a night.
