Teenage boys plus sex and food and snuggly warmth apparently makes for a great naptime, because that's exactly what happened with Isaac curled up around him on the couch. They woke up when his dad opened the front door and Isaac headed home after a quick kiss on the front porch. And while it was an awesomely comfortable nap, it means that they didn't really get a chance to talk about the whole boyfriends thing.
The making out portion of their friendship had started around midsummer and since it wasn't really anything big Stiles just hadn't seen a reason to mention it to anyone once they started junior year. But now they're officially boyfriends and Stiles doesn't actually know what kinds of changes that means. Isaac had talked last night like it wasn't his first time, but Stiles can't remember ever hearing about him dating anyone. So maybe Isaac just isn't the PDA type and they're not going to be super open about it at school. The pack should know though, right? Stiles needs to find a way to grab Isaac and ask him about how he wants to handle this before he screws everything up… but there's Scott now.
Scott nearly crashes into him in his enthusiasm. "Good Morning! You ready for a real week of school?" Stiles rolls his eyes, he's glad that Scott managed to recover his grades after the mess that was last year but he's still a little disturbed by his enthusiasm for the new school year. Seriously, who gets excited for the first full week of school?
"Yeah, yeah, back to the grindstone. At least it looks like we won't have to deal with anything supernatural on top of it for now. Gotta keep those grades up Scotty so you can stay on first line and so mom doesn't make you stay away from Allison to do your homework." He lets Scott drag him along the hallway to their first class, it's like his wolfy powers somehow help him navigate the crowded hallways.
"She won't keep me away from Allison, she'll just make us stay in the dining room. Hey! You're okay with Isaac now right? I can tell you've been hanging out with him a lot, you know." Scott taps his nose and grins, "So maybe we can all study together. I don't think Isaac's grades are that great after last year either."
Stiles completely panics for a minute because Oh my GOD what does he smell like right now? Between napping on the couch, talking to dad and going to bed, and sleeping in maybe a little too much it's not like he really took as thorough of a shower as he should have considering he hangs around with werewolves. Is Scott seriously already planning double dates?
No, there's no way Scott could've realized what happened because he'd be way more obvious about it. He's been quiet for too long and Scott stops weaving through the crowd and asks, "You and Isaac are getting along, right? You're okay?"
Stiles can't help but smirk at that, "Yeah, we're getting along great. It's fine. We can totally all study together. C'mon class is starting." He tugs Scott into the classroom and into their seats. He won't see Isaac until they get to gym class third period, telling Scott exactly how well they're getting along now can wait until then.
He's not really sure how Coach Finstock managed to talk the school and the other coaches into this arrangement, but for the most part everyone who goes out for sports has gym together. Different teams in different periods, but each team is all together wherever possible. This means that he sees most of the pack for gym and that's sort of cool except today where it's weird. Stiles gets to the locker room kind of late and quickly changes to get out to class. And it's the beginning of the school year and it's gorgeous outside so mostly they're all running around because Coach thought it would be hilarious to encourage them to play a game of tag. Stiles is suddenly glad he's been essentially playing tag with werewolves for most of the summer or he would suck at this. He ends up laughing hysterically when Isaac manages to just appear behind him and knocks him to the ground and rolls, at least he cares enough to watch out for Stiles' head as he does it. Erica is on the other side of the field jeering at them and Scott is grinning like a loon.
Everyone survives tag and they end up in the locker room a few minutes earlier than usual. Stiles is laughing and almost crashes into Jackson when Scott knocks their shoulders together too hard on the way back to his locker. He pulls off his gym shirt without thinking and goes digging around in his locker for his other shirt. Isaac and Boyd crash around the corner together and Stiles notices that Jackson is staring at him looking… a little horrified actually. He looks from Jackson to Danny questioningly and when Danny looks up and between them both he cracks up laughing.
That's when Stiles remembers the huge hickey that Isaac left at the edge of his collarbone and the couple of other smaller ones that he found last night. He's definitely blushing and only blushes worse when Danny grins and asks, "Who's the lucky girl, Stiles?" and did Jackson just whimper?
What the hell is he supposed to do now? He didn't get a chance to ask Isaac if this was okay. If they were going to tell everyone about this or not, because maybe he's private enough that he only wants the pack knowing about their relationship and not the whole school. Stiles looks at Isaac a little desperately and he looks like he's hunching in on himself and closing off. That's right, Isaac was pretty insecure last night and now that he's thinking about it, he was most surprised about Stiles wanting to be something official. He's gonna go out on a limb here and just, "Boy, Danny. 'Who's the lucky boy?' is the question you need to be asking."
Danny is just smirking while Jackson sort of freaks out next to him and looks like he really doesn't want to know. It looks like Scott just caught on to what's happening here because his face just lit up and he's looking between Stiles and Isaac and his grin just keeps growing as Danny offers Stiles a fistbump, "Go you Stilinski. So who is it?"
Stiles isn't sure he wants to announce this to the whole locker room without Isaac's permission, especially since there's at least two mean looking dudes from the football team in the next section of lockers watching them curiously and one of them is glaring. Isaac is smiling though, looking down with a slight blush across is cheeks and smiling just enough that his dimples show so clearly the only option here is to go for it. "Isaac. He was over last night, that's where this and these came from." He gestures to his collarbone and down his torso at the lighter marks, "It's a shame I can't leave any on him you know?"
Isaac is smiling and has moved closer to him and Danny just grins at him and it's like he's surrounded by attractive dimples on all sides for a second. "A real shame." He nods before offering Isaac a low five.
Isaac smacks at Danny's hand and then curls an arm around Stiles' waist to nuzzle behind his ear for a moment before they're both glomped by Scott who is suddenly excitedly rocking them back and forth in a hug and grinning, "That's awesome you guys! I'm so happy for you!"
"Oh God, you all need to stop. Stilinski, put your shirt on and finish changing, the bells going to ring soon. I don't want to see this and-" he leans closer to them both "it's bad enough I can smell it. Put your clothes on before I throw you into the showers." Isaac just laughs blushing "I kinda like the smell, actually." and nudges Stiles back towards his locker. So that went way better than expected, though now Stiles is slightly concerned about what his scent is giving away.
It's lunchtime and Stiles suspects that a huge portion of the school has heard about him and Isaac by the time he heads to the cafeteria. He's gotten some really strange looks since he left gym class, some evaluative and considering and others that were a lot less friendly. There were at least a handful of girls that glared at him and he's pretty sure that this morning they didn't even know who he was. Weird. So weird. Girls are weird. He tries not to think about if any of them have actually been with Isaac.
He's only a few feet from the cafeteria when he feels and arm link with his and sees blonde curls from the corner of his eye, "So I hear you and puppycurls got together over the weekend. I was wondering if that was ever going to go anywhere. I have to know, who made the first move? If it was you then Boyd owes me a movie of my choosing."
What is his life that these are his friends? "That depends on what moves you're talking about. Are we talking the kissing because that was mostly Isaac. Are you talking relationship status because that was me. Or are you talking about-"
Isaac's arm snakes around his waist as he's interrupted and pulled away from Erica, "What are you up to Erica?"
"Just trying to find out if Boyd owes me a movie." She grins a little ferally, "So who made the first move, because I hear the results were pretty spectacular." She reaches to pull down the collar of Stiles' shirt and get a glance in at the darkest hickey before Isaac swats her hand away and was that a growl? He's pretty sure that was a growl. "Relax 'curls, I'm not invading your territory, I'm very much over that." She shoots a smirk at Boyd who's already got his lunch and just rolls his eyes at them.
Stiles looks between them and then taps at Isaac's hand where it's resting on his hip while he stares down Erica, and that's kind of awesome and awkward actually. He kind of likes the possessiveness and being cuddled in the cafeteria but- "Okay, I get that this is some sort of wolfy thing here but Stiles needs food so you need to let go or follow me to the lunch line. It's tater tot day, and while they are not curly fries, they still come from the glorious potato and I need them."
Shockingly (or maybe not really) Isaac follows him up to the line and stays close. Scott grins and waves from where he's at a little ways ahead of them and he seems really excited for this new development. This is why Scott's his favorite. He really hopes that Isaac's going to be okay with Scott staying his favorite or this might get awkward fast. They chat about classes and a little about the movie they ended up falling asleep to last night while they get their food and head back to the table that the pack has pretty much taken over. Lydia, Jackson and Danny have joined the rest and Danny scoots over pointedly making sure there's enough room for two people next to him. Stiles wonders if this is a solidarity thing.
Jackson's sitting across from Danny talking about some sort of running schedule since the whole Lacrosse team is encouraged to do cross country in the off season and both of them are taking it pretty seriously. Scott seems to be half listening and nodding along and half trying to talk to Allison where she's sitting at the end of the table, still sort of awkward around Boyd and Erica. Stiles is pretty much ignoring all of them for now in order to focus on actually eating and so that he can avoid the glares that he's pretty sure are being directed only at him and not Isaac. Okay he knew from the beginning that Isaac was cute but is this really necessary on the first day they're together?
An arm curls around his shoulders and brings his attention back to the table. Isaac leans over and noses at his temple because apparently declaring Isaac his in a crowded locker room means he gets all the PDA, "Hey, what's wrong?"
Stiles seriously needs to chill because clearly Isaac is cool with this and wants to be here or he wouldn't be so touchy feely in the middle of the cafeteria and he wouldn't care that Stiles is getting upset. Fine, then Stiles is going to indulge himself in affection as much as he wants just because he can. Didn't he promise himself last night that he was going to romance the shit out of this boy? He should work on that. Screw anyone else in the school who doesn't like it for any reason. He leans into Isaac "I'm fine. This is just a little strange to get used to."
Isaac starts to pull away, "Oh! I'm sorry. I didn't even think-"
"Stop that." Stiles wraps his arm around Isaac's waist because he can and when Isaac relaxes into him and ducks down a little Stiles nuzzles their noses together. "You want a juice? I'm going to go get one." He knows Isaac won't turn down fruit punch, pretty much ever and maybe he wants a reason to walk across the cafeteria and see what sort of reactions people are actually having instead of sitting here and being paranoid.
Okay so not that many people are glaring, a couple of the guys from other teams (seriously, maybe the lacrosse team is the nicest because they managed to cram all their douchey behavior into just Jackson) and a handful of girls that are clearly envious. Well he already knew his new boyfriend was a catch so… whatever. It's nothing he hasn't dealt with before. He leans over and drops a kiss on Isaac's cheek as he puts the juice in front of him on the table and then sits back down and his tater tots have multiplied!
He's grinning kind of stupidly at Isaac who is looking slyly at him like he's being adorably sneaky (which he is) when Lydia sighs loudly. "This is actually shockingly unexpected." She looks them over like she's trying to figure out how a puzzle fits together, "Though if this is going to be normal behavior, apparently I should have actually considered Stiles all of those times when he asked me out. At least he seems to be a considerate boyfriend." Jackson is still basically ignoring her in favor of talking to Danny and Scott, even though he's right next to her.
Stiles laughs, "See?! You had no idea what you'd be missing." He gestures at himself and then realizes that Isaac is actually growling again and Erica is giggling at him. He can't help but grin at that and grab Isaac's hand to intertwine their fingers, "You're too late now though. Now you're stuck with Jackson." That stops Isaac mid-growl and he actually looks surprised. Again.
Lydia's smiling at them both now, she's a liar if she's going to pretend she doesn't appreciate romance even if for some reason she wants it from Jackson. "Well at least now we can all go out on group dates without awkwardly leaving someone out."
"Aww Yeah! I'll show Jackson how it's done."
Oops, Jackson definitely heard that, "Stilinski what are you talking about?"
That's when Boyd finally decides to add his two cents, "Apparently Stiles is going to show you how to properly treat your lady." He wiggles his eyebrows pointedly at Isaac who is now blushing bright red and Erica cracks. He's not actually sure how she's breathing through all that laughter. Lydia looks like she is barely resisting joining her.
How are these even his friends now?
Wait, did he just agree to group dates?
