Hey guys! This is my first English TW Fanfic (I'm German) but I will try my best :)
If anyone is interested in correcting my chapters - please contact me! I would be more than happy :)

I DO NOT OWN TEEN WOLF!

If you are here for Sterek - no romance but a lot of bromance! I promise!

Jackson is back, Isaac stayed. Allison is alive.
Doesn't mean there is no possibility for Kira, Malia or Breaden!

"Stiles!" Derek yelled, standing in the main room of his loft, ready to leave.
"Get your ass out of the library!" he added, obviously annoyed.

"Comin', Der!" Stiles answered. "Just give me a sec, ok? Think I found something!"

Derek closed his eyes and took a deep breath. This kid would kill him someday.
Well, if he didn't, Derek would kill Stiles eventually.

"Stiles!" He yelled again, followed by a deep and loud growl which made the Betas cringe.
"Stiles, I will come and get you. Stop looking for new laptops and get yourself over here!"

"Calm down, Sourwolf. I'm coming. But I really need a new laptop! You wolfs with your
superpowers are fine but all I have is my mind and a laptop. A laptop you threw at me last week.
For NO reason! So right now, I just have my mind and given the fact that I have ADHD… well… you get it."
Stiles had finally made his way to the living room. He was standing in the big whole on the right side of
the loft which led to the kitchen and the library.

They had renovated Derek's loft last year after it was flooded and energized. Well. Lydia had renovated it
mostly. Derek had payed the bills. But he was okay with it. Stiles had given him a speech about how he was
the Alpha now and needed to take the responsibility for his pack. Which also meant giving them
a home. So he eventually gave in.

"I did NOT throw it at you without any reason, Stilinski. You had registered me on a dating website."
Derek snapped back, still furious. He heard Jackson and Isaac laughing in the kitchen.
"Shut up you two." He growled. They did.

"Well, if you wouldn't be such a grumpy old wolf you sure would find a really nice girlfriend. But you have to work
on your aggressions, Derek. And it is no big deal to look for love online. I am doing it for a couple of weeks
now and went on two dates last week, right? Sure, the girls were horrible but… you get the point."

"Stiles, will you please shut up and get ready? Put on your shoes and then let's go." Derek begged. He didn't
want to discuss his love life with Stiles, the Betas still listening.

Stiles' ability to talk without even breathing was the one thing that annoyed the hell out of Derek. He loved
the kid, he really did. Even though Stiles was the only human on the pack, he was his favourite. He would
never tell him though. He never told any of them that he liked them, in fact loved them like family.
But he was sure they knew anyway.

Stiles rolled with his eyes and opened the cupboard with their shoes in it. He put on his grey sneakers
and grabbed his red hoody.

"Ready?" Derek asked, clearly tired of waiting for the boy.

"Ready when you are!" Stiles answered the Alpha with a big innocent smile on his face.

Derek breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's go running then."

Running. Stiles hated it. But Derek insisted on it.

When Derek had realized and accepted the fact that Stiles was part of the pack even though he was human,
he demanded that Stiles would start working out. He and Lydia were the weakest members of the pack and
he wanted them to be safe, well at least safer.

Stiles had been really enthusiastic about the whole working out thing. Until the point when he really had to
work out. Derek had made the Betas and Scott run with him every other day and began to be really proud
of Stiles because he was actually doing what Derek had said. Or so he had thought.

It took him two weeks to find out that Stiles had not been doing what Derek wanted. At all.

Jackson had stopped running with Stiles after one work out, telling Derek he would either kill Stiles or himself
if he had to run again with the boy. He could not blame his Beta. Stiles and Jackson had never been best buddies
and Stiles wouldn't stop talking even while running. Beginners are supposed to run slowly. They have to be able to talk.
That's what Stiles had read on a website and had told them repeatedly. Scott had tried to explain that this was just
meant theoretically and he didn't need to talk the whole time but Stiles would not shut up.

So he had sent Isaac.

And it worked out fine.

Stiles came home pretty exhausted and Derek could smell that he had obviously been running and sweating a lot.
Well, until the day he found out the two had been spending their time at a local dinner, checking out girls and Isaac
had made the boy ran the last mile. ONE MILE and the boy could not breathe at all.

So Derek had asked the girls to run with Stiles. Stiles had not been amused and had refused to go. Like "Not it a million
years, Derek! Never ever ever ever ever I am going to run with the girls". Allison was training Lydia and Stiles had told
them he did not want to run with them because they clearly wanted to have some girl time. Because they weren't together
talking about girl stuff the whole day anyway.

Derek knew Stiles had been scared he would suck next to the girls. Lydia was really fit and Allison as well so Derek
wanted Stiles to keep his last bit of dignity.

So Derek had to bite the bullet.

Well, not alone. Scott was also actually running with Stiles so they were able to split the work outs.

Stiles was bad. Like really bad at running. And he was talking. Like ALL THE FUCKING TIME! But Derek did not mind.
He could to his own surprise blind out Stiles' jabbering and Stiles didn't mind Derek not answering at all. So they were fine.

They were running for nearly an hour now. Stiles had to walk every ten minutes to cry like a baby how bad and unfit he was.
As if Derek had not noticed.

But Stiles had not realized that he actually had gotten better. Derek had because he could her the boy's heartbeat and it
wasn't racing like it had during their first runs.

Stiles was talking. What a surprise.

He told Derek about school and how Scott had become way better now that he decided to be part of Derek's pack even
though he was not his Alpha. Scott decision had not been an easy one. After Erica and Boyd had died, Derek's pack was
weakened. Even though Jackson had returned and joined the pack, he, Isaac, and Derek were just three. Peter could not
be counted as a member so just being three, Derek asked Scott to join. Derek, being an Omega after Peter had died
(and come back to life) decided to join the pack but he was still struggling to accept Derek as his Alpha.
But they were working on it.

But the Hale pack was stronger than ever with Scott and, well, Peter who also lived in Derek's loft as Derek wanted to
have control of what his uncle was doing. He had his room in the basement of the loft just next to the gym they had built.
With them being 5 werewolves, a human and a banshee they were safe. Oh, and let's not forget the Argents.

Allison was still Lydia's best friend. Stiles was not sure what she was to Scott and Isaac though. Scott and Allison had
broken up last year leading Allison right into the arms of the blonde puppy. But that did not work out either.

Being the only two Argents left, Allison and her father had decided to help those who could not help themselves. So they stayed.
She wasn't in the warehouse district that often –clearly avoiding her ex-boyfriends. But they saw each other at school.

Derek was listening but somehow he was not. His mind was blank.

Stiles was running out of breath. Like literally.

"Derek, why... why... are you.. woah... why are we running so fast today? I... I...can't... I..." Stiles could not keep
up with the Alpha anymore. Derek was running really fast, not listening. Stiles rolled his eyes and kept running.
He tried to catch up with his friend which finally led to Stiles shutting up.

Suddenly, Derek stopped.

Which led to Stiles bumping right into him. "Dude! What the... First you start running like a maniac and now?
What the fuck, Derek?" Stiles cussed.

But Derek remained silent, staring at the house on the other side to the road.

"And where the hell are we? We have never been here before, Derek. Are we still in Beacon Hills?" Stiles went on.

Derek did not know where they were, he didn't even remember how they came here.
He just did - like he was drawn to this place. By her.

"Anna." he said. His mouth dry and his eyes wide open with... well... surprise? Anger? Happiness? He was not sure.
