Yep. Should have seen this coming. Already hopped ships to Sterek and put everything else on hiatus.
Anyway, this fic was inspired by a few things. First, the fact that I had started drawing Teen Wolf chibis, re-reading my eight volumes of the manga Loveless, and that I found a Legend of Zelda Dojinshi that had Link with bunny ears. Which gave me the idea that led to this mess of randomness you're about to read. Lucky or unlucky you.
Everyone has ears and tails. Wolves included. They don't serve much of a purpose aside from just being cute asthetics since Stiles is still, well Stiles. He just has bunny ears and a tail. This is set around the end of Season 2. So no alpha pack. Yet. Alright, enough ranting. Time for the fic.
Stiles' POV
I sighed as I stared out my bedroom window at the rain falling from the sky in buckets. Lacross practice had been canclled due to the violent rainstorm that had rolled in. Usually on days like this I would hang out with my best, and currently only, friend Scott McCall. But recently Scott had only been interested in one thing; his secret girlfriend Allison Argent. Not that that bugged me much. I just hated when Scott cancelled our plans to go stalk around the Argent house. So here I sit, in my room, staring out the foggy window at the sheeting rain as I brushed out my floppy rabbit ears. Oh did I forget to mention that? I live in a world where humans have animal parts. No we're not some creepy experiment or the result of some nuclear holocaust, we're just like this. And I just happened to be a rabbit. My ears had gotten wet from the rain and my dad, who oddly enough was a bear, hates when I track water in the house. Speaking of my lone paternal figure.
"Stiles, I'm heading out to the station. I got the late shift again." he said as he cracked my door open a bit. "You going to be alright by yourself?"
"I'll survive. I've got twenty games and a handfull of good movies to watch." I said, cracking a smile. "Don't drown or get struck by lightning." He smiled back.
"I'll try. I'll leave some money for you to order out tonight. Save some leftovers for me."
"I'll try." I watched through the window as the cruiser pulled out of the driveway and headed down the street. I stretched and got up from bed. Maybe a round of Mortal Kombat would cure some of my boredom.
Derek's POV
Why am I even standing here? It's pouring down raining and my tail is soaked to the bone. But the warm, sweet scent pouring from the small house is grounding me here. I can hear the sound of the Xbox 360 running, the slightly racing heartbeat of the console's owner. I know I look like a creeper. The real world equivalent of Slenderman. But I don't care. Something about this boy is drawing me here. I know who he is. I threaten him and his best friend every day. But recently my instincts have started going haywire, my dreams are filled with visions of the sweet, hyperactive bunny boy. I want to taste his skin, stroke those luscious, velvety bunny ears and squeeze that plush cotton tail. Its a good thing the rain is cold. My ears rotate and twitch as I zero in on the steady ba-dump ba-dump of his heart. It's soothing, and reminds me of a simpler, more pleasant time. I sigh, my clothes are completely soaked and my tail is hanging limply from the back of my jeans. I yawn before heading to what remained of my home.
"There you are. What happened? Did someone try to drown you?" I rolled my eyes at my sarcastic and somewhat psychotic uncle.
"It's raining out."
"Yeah but you look like someone just dumped you in a pool."
"Why are you here again?"
"Because I had to pick something up." he said. "And drop off some dinner for my favorite nephew." I rolled my eyes again.
"I'm perfectly capable of fixing myself dinner." I said.
"Not staring at the Stilinzki boy all day you aren't. Yes I know you've been staring at him."
"I don't stare at him."
"Really. Where were you?"
"Out."
"Staring at the Stilinzki boy." I scoffed and threw my hands in the air like a spoiled teenager.
"I don't stare at him!"
"Whatever you say Derek, whatever you say." he chuckled. I scoffed and headed upstairs to my room. I could smell what Peter had brought, sausage and mushroom pizza and hot wings, as I shed my soaked clothing. I wasn't exactly hungry although the smell was enticing. My thoughts were wandering back to Stiles. I could not get my mind off that boy. I shook the water from my tail and dried it and my hair and ears with a towel before putting on a dry pair of jeans and a t-shirt. I laid back on my bed and stared at the ceiling. What was it about Stiles that suddenly attracted me to him? He was fragile, human, a complete klutz, with the worst luck I had ever seen. But all of it was attractive. They were endearing qualities most people would find annoying. I found them cute. Then again I found everything about him cute. From the thousands of moles and freckles dotting his pale cream skin to his floppy looking rabbit ears and his cotton candy tail, both the same shade of chestnut brown as his hair. He started growing it out as well. I shook my head and got up. Heading over to Stiles' was risky. But knowing how scatterbrained the bunny could be, he probably got too wrapped up in video games and forgot to eat. Thankfully, the rain had slowed some as I grabbed the food and headed back over.
Stiles' POV
I yawned as I flipped though my collection of games. I was currently debating on playing Sonic Unleashed or Final Fantasy XIII when the doorbell rang. I checked the peephole first before cracking the door.
"Derek?" I asked, not totally believing what I was seeing.
"Hey." he said. "Can I come in? It's still raining out here." I stepped to the side and let him in, staring at him as he walked into the kitchen and placed a pizza box on the counter. What the hell was going on? Did I pass out from lack of food again? I did tend to forget to eat when playing video games.
"Um...Derek? Wh-what are you doing here?" I asked, grabbing whatever I could get my hands on.
"What, I can't stop by when there isn't a crisis going on?" he asked, looking through the kitchen cabinets for plates.
"Um...well it's just weird for you to just. Y'know. Be nice to me." I said.
"I'm capable of being nice." he snapped.
"See you're being mean right now!" He rolled his eyes.
"Where do you keep the soda?" he asked, now rummaging through the refrigerator. I flailed my arms a bit.
"Okay, who are you pod person and what have you done with the Sourwolf?" I demanded, brandishing a broom of all things.
"Put that down before you poke your eye out." he sighed, carrying two cans of orange soda, a bag of chips and the pizza box with two plates balanced on top to the living room. I watched as he spread out the food on the table before going through the stack of DVD's on the floor next to my 360. "Are you going to stand there looking like some weirdo or are you going to sit down?" I scrambled around, haphazardly sitting the broom in the pantry before stumbling over to the couch and sitting on one end.
"So um, what are we watching?" I asked as if this wasn't even my house. My head had gone blank so I didn't even remember what movies were in the stack to begin with.
"Texas Chainsaw Massacre." he said with a smirk as he put the disk into the console. I grabbed a few slices of pizza and piled some chips on my plate as he started the movie before turning out the lights and sitting down. The rain started picking up again outside, giving the room an eerie look and making Derek look a little more menacing than he probably intended. An impending sense of doom washed over me. Movie night with the alpha wolf, great.
Hey there. Well I don't know where this is going really, honestly I wasn't planning to even go this direction with this but my brain does whatever it wants with these sort of things. So, Stiles thinks Derek is a pod person...not sure what to say about that.
Again, the ears thing is just because it's cute and they don't serve much of a purpose for Stiles as they do Derek. I'm still debating on later events since I don't wanna just do a straight from Season 3 plot. So I'm officially giving this the AU tag. But only slightly. Some things will still be the same.
Next time, Movie Night with Derek. Till then; peace, love and Sterek. ~Kira-chan
