Authors note: I do not own any of these characters so far. I plan on adding an original character later on if not in this very chapter. I apologise if I don't. I enjoy teen wolf and have read a few fanfiction Sterek's lately and am trying a hand at my own. Please leave a comment with constructive criticism. It is a wonderful motivator. And I'm sorry for any plot holes, grammar mistakes, spelling mistakes or general bad writing. Also warning if you haven't already seen or guessed. This is a mature content fiction within the two main characters are men and in love. There will be sexual scene and violence along the way as things progress. Also there may be Manpreg. I have yet to decide on that. Thank you for reading – Monkey.

Stiles sighed listlessly as he handed in his paper for yet another pop quiz he was just unprepared for. With everything happening recently he was more than stressed about his failing grades and make up tests but he was glad things had finally settled down in beacon hills. However it felt like the calm before a storm which had everyone ignoring the issues. Kate was dead.. Mr. Agent had shot her after she kidnapped Derek.. Honestly the woman was sick. But Derek had left to deal with himself and other stuff that most everyone understood, but Stiles? Stiles was more selfish and only wondered when the man would come back.

Growing up with Derek as a neighbour had given him a lot of time to get to know the wolf. His uncle had died in the fire no more casualties than that but before they had been able to leave Kate had shot his mother and sister leaving him with some younger cousins and family that moved away. He and his dad stuck it out though hiding and eventually resurfacing in their home town a year later when they were sure Kate Argent had left nothing else was left to threaten in Beacon Hills, that is until her brother Chris moved into the area. It was at this point that Stiles remembered doing everything he could to make sure that Derek was alright despite being a young boy himself however the closed off Alpha had turned away and nearly being ten years older the boy while upset knew even then that he needed time. When his own mother passed away a couple of years later Derek did console him, it seemed like a bonding experience he would never forget. But the two again grew apart.

And while Scott tried, he just didn't understand the pain of losing a parent, it was something he was only willing to discuss with his father and Derek. But he soon was able to talk more to a therapist he had for a couple months which really helped his healing when Derek stopped being there to help him. He stopped for various reasons but the younger male couldn't understand until later in life. Derek would have been going through his own grief, changes and school. For a kid without most of his family around it would've been very difficult.

"Stiles" Stiles was wrenched from his sad thoughts of what had happened over the years and turned to see a worried Scott next to him holding an equally emotioned kitsune's hand. "Huh?" he asked staring back at them mouth half open as he looked around and realised he'd followed the others out of the class but was going the wrong way to get to the cafeteria. Yeah, his auto pilot sucked. Looking at his concerned friends he couldn't help but see what a match they were. Kira was Asian and not a wolf or a human but they worked. She was short and slim with a cute smile her long hair framing her face. And she could protect herself and fight by the trouble attracting fella. And Scott his best friend in the world. Tan, tall and rather muscular himself but not as much as Derek.. And Derek wasn't so much that it looked strange or ugly like some body builders. Not that he was a body builder..

The teen smiled with a redness gracing his cheeks as he looked at them full of embarrassment. "Oh, Uh yeah." he mumbled and followed the smell of the sherbet lemon smelling entwined mates... How he wished he had something as wonderful as they did.. He walked behind them sniffing the air softly as he discreetly tried to live vicariously imagining what would go with his own sweet orange smelling scent.

Honestly he was more desperate than ever to find his mate as the up coming summer was approaching. It was slightly his want to have that kind of a relationship, to be taken care of by the person he was meant to be with forever... But it was also his wolf howling inside knowing the heat cycle was coming. All the wolves had it coming, but those with their mates didn't have to worry. Even those who'd just been dating didn't need to worry having some kind of plan to have someone with them, helping them. It was the upside to relationships even if you weren't mates. And with the summer fast approaching the heat seemed to be getting to everyone not just the wolves or couples.

People, humans and whatever else seemed to be coupling up. Even the coach had a date. But Stiles, well he was Stiles and he had the worst track record of anyone. The only girl interested had been sacrificed and honestly none of the Alphas seemed interested in him either having a mate already or... not being gay despite the ways they reacted to his presence. And Isaac's. Yeah it wasn't great for the Omega's of Beacon hills. There were only two at their school and Alpha's from their school and the neighbouring ones just didn't want them. Despite that being what Omega's did.. They were there to be claimed by an Alpha. Not more no less. Although there were rare cases where an Omega wouldn't find his true mate before being claimed and making it into a fight over territory. You see Omega's were rather sustainable to suggestion, especially that of Alphas. They could easily convince them to follow, have fun and them take them without permission if they wanted to.. It was Illegal to force an Omega to do anything they didn't want to. But fear made it very difficult to get the truth. Not to mention some mated pairs had bad relationships, not everyone in a mated couple were happy. He remembered going into the station to give his dad a nice salad for lunch and save his blood pressure from more greasy hamburgers only to find a snarling Alpha with a bruised and broken omega.

The charges were that it was her own mated lover that had struck her after not doing something.. Or something like that he was fuzzy on why it all actually went down but that wasn't the issue.. She had looked right into the deputies eyes and smiled. Then explained. "He didn't do anything to me. And if he did it would have been good reason for being a bad Omega." Stiles shuddered at the thought. He just hoped that his own Alpha was going to be kind, loving and warm.

Stiles wanted to find his Alpha, he really did but all Alpha's from the other schools close by were straight or claimed to be and Stiles had found that out in very clear ways over the past few months during lacrosse. He'd be playing and out of no where he was tackled and very badly hurt so he'd sit on the bench claiming a twisted ankle and not a broken bone, clearly no match there. He'd heal up pretty quickly but after practise it was worse. Sometimes rather than protecting their weaker wolves like their entire being told them to they lashed out. And Stiles was sure that the few from the other school were such wolves who might even hurt their own mates. Omega or not. Nothing happened when Scott was with him and they didn't bother but other times an Alpha from a visiting area would beat on him into next week just for reacting to the Alpha's initial interest. Isaac had been beat a couple times too but being with Allison nearly all the time kept him from harm and being claimed helped all the more. And being claimed meant that they had to leave you alone lest their partner challenge them.

Sitting now with a tray in front of him he looked up at the people around the table, he was sure they could feel his anxiety and fear at what he had been thinking and the desperation of needing someone.. But they didn't say so out loud, opting instead to try and cheer him up. "So I heard Derek is back in town.." Erica smiled as she walked by giving a flash of her eyes at Isaac to come with them to where Theo and Jackson were sitting together flirting and up to no good in general. Isaac was sitting with Allison smiling at her lovestruck eyes looking into her chocolate brown ones. Honestly Stiles was the only one that saw it... Jackson was Cream... Isaac was Cookies... They smelled perfect for each other and yet Jackson was falling into Theo's lies of pancakes and cream being perfect...

Honestly it irked him so bad that the guy would lie so much.. Well maybe he wasn't lying but he felt he was.. Isaac and Jackson would just be a better fit.. Less douchbaggery... And he just didn't like the guy, moving there.. knowing Scott... Moving in on his best buddy just because he was also an Alpha and could 'Relate' to stuff that Scott dealt with.. Yeah fucking right.. He didn't believe it. But maybe that was just his jealousy... He had issues man.. No lover and clinging to his Bestie like he had a claim on him somehow. He just didn't want him to decide that the Omega wasn't worth his friendship.. Even though he was sure that probably.. most likely.. Maybe wouldn't happen. But right now he was just overjoyed. "Really?" He asked her trying to act as casually as he could. He'd had a crush on the man for a long time and honestly he hoped his own Alpha would just find him soon. He needed him well or her but in his head he always said him... Perhaps hoping it could be Derek..

Thinking back to times when he and Derek had been younger.. Stiles would claim that when the older boy would get married. Mostly brought on because the guy gave him ice cream even after it had been sort of banned from him since he'd gotten into trouble at school. A punishment that to his younger self was worse than anything else he could have imagined. But Derek had taken more time to find out what happened. "Well..." A young Stiles began. "Some boys were picking on me... They said my Momma died because she was a weak Omega like me... They were wolves.." He added and then sighed softly looking up at the man sadly. Reassuringly Derek had wrapped his arms around him in a tight comforting hug and gave him a little taste of the ice cream he'd been banned from. "Derek... I wanna marry you when I am old enough." He'd declared gaining a laugh from the older wolf.. Only five years between them.. So the older one didn't take it seriously at all. After that Derek had left. Hadn't wanted to help him through things. Probably scared off by his words.

Stiles sighed contently over the memories only to come back to his senses when Malia, Scotts half sister reached over and stole some of his chips gaining a growl from him. "What?" She asked the agitated wolf and them smirked. "I'm only eating what you aren't." She pointed out. He sighed and cleared his head of any day dreams or thoughts that would further distract him. Honestly it was hard being an Omega werewolf with the attention span of a gnat and the limbs of an infantile deer. No seriously if he didn't pay attention sometimes his legs would just fail him and he'd trip on air, or he'd drop something flailing to try and catch it but honestly he was a walking disaster zone and the most stereo typical version of himself that he could imagine. Love sick, average looking with massive crush on an Adonis, clumsy, daydreaming, distracted, unloved other than by his friends, Omega Stiles...

Munching on his chips he didn't really wait to talk. "So Scott I'm going to see Derek.. I can't make the video games evening." He said shoving some more in his mouth, honestly he had the worst table manners anyone had seen. But they didn't mind all that much as mostly he would just eat or talk and let his food get cold but seeing as Malia had decided to steal his food and he had something to say they forgave the rudeness. Not that they weren't used to it.

Scott nodded and then smiled. "Alright, a chance for me to hang out with Theo then.. Play one on one basket ball." he explained to the Omega's dislike. Theo again... He just had a really bad feeling about the guy. "Sure, sure.." Stiles replied and when he had finished went off to head to his class as he liked to get to this a little early as he was very put off of being late, he'd spent five days of two hour detentions from the science teacher for coming in as the bell rang. Honestly he was a dick. But nothing he could do about that apart from avoid issues. Which he did well for the most part. After school was over Stiles got into his powder blue jeep and turned the key only to be greeted by a disappointing failing engine. He took his tool box out which mostly consisted of duck tape and gave a few parts a bit of a hit with a spanner. Then he tried again, when it spluttered into life the smile of victory reclaimed his expression.

Taking the tools he placed them back into his jeep and took off. Barely noticing the smirk that Erica was sporting as she turned to her love Boyd. "Look at that, you owe me ten bucks." She held her hand out and then grinned like the Cheshire cat as he paid up. Theo laughed lightly and then rolled his eyes a bit trying to project the light heartedness he was feeling just then. As he said goodbye to Jackson Scott went over to him and they talked leaving the gang and going for some one on one. Since Stiles was going to talk to Derek, Theo would have to try and get in with the alpha at a later time.

Stiles reached the driveway of the Hale residence with nervous flutterings in his stomach and a hope that could be quashed as easily as it had arrived. He walked over and knocked on the door only to have his father open to him. He felt himself depress lightly but he smiled. "Hello Mr. Hale is Derek in?" Honestly it made him feel like a child again wondering if the older teen would come out to play. The older man with a few stray whiskers from an uneven shave greeted him warmly. "No he isn't. He doesn't live with his old dad any more. But I can tell you where he is.. But only if you call me Alex. Honestly this Mr. Hale stuff makes me feel so old." The older man laughed at himself and waited for a reply. "Yes Mr... Uh, I mean yes Alex sir." he said and beamed an innocent smile. The older wolf laughed gruffly as he handed over the new address. "I suppose that will do for now." He accepted.

Once in his truck he looked back at the man still stood in the doorway seeing him off. He was a kind man and neighbour despite losing his wife. But being an Omega himself he was typically meant to be calm natured. He was short and slim which was such a difference from the beautifully muscular Derek. But he had the same tan skin, green eyes and black hair which was now getting a little long for the man. He'd probably end up cutting it but Stiles understood that his hair might not be the first thing he thought of in life. He waved to him and started off again pleading with the gods that he wouldn't break down again and that Derek would be at home this time. When he reached the parking lot outside of the reclaimed building Derek was gutting out and turning into his home he took a deep breath and walked over to what seemed to be the main door to get in and knocked a feather light sigh coming from him as he needed to breath or he'd pass out. Who answered though wasn't actually Derek. It was a very beautiful and curvy woman with Maroon painted lips fitting her tan skin to perfection. She was wearing a pair of skin tight Jeans and a pretty red floral crop top. Her hair was long and a lovely curly black.

Stiles gaped and blushed his mouth moving and twisting into different shapes as if to say something but nothing came out. He shook his head and took deep breaths at her appearance. She was stunning. Stiles would love her if he wasn't so hung up already. In fact he kinda sort of did like her. He shook his head from the thought and then licked his cupids bow lips hand moving to the back of his neck as he rubbed it trying to release the tension he had in his muscles as he spoke. "Uh.. I.. Is Derek here?" he asked avoiding her gaze. She was too pretty for him to look at her knowing that she was in the guy he liked's house..
