AN-Ok heres 7! i am sorry to the ones who wanted jeff to get punched. maybe you wont be to upset. I want to thank Agentdouble0negative2 for her help with james and the derek and jeff discussion.
James woke first; he just laid there between Derek and Stiles. James crawls onto Derek's chest and lays there; Derek wraps an arm around him. "Hey buddy."
James smiles, "You wake?"
Derek smiles his eyes still closed, "I will be if you want."
James laughs then reaches his little fingers up to Derek's jaw and feels his stubble. "You pokey."
Derek laughs, "Yeah I need to shave."
James keeps running his fingers over Derek's face until Derek captures a finger with his lips. James giggles and pulls it out, and then Derek gets two fingers. James giggles more and pulls his fingers out again then Derek yawns and James puts his whole hand in Derek's mouth.
Derek closes his mouth around James' hand his teeth barely touching it. James laughs, "Don't eat it!"
Derek laughs and talks around his hand, "Why not?"
James laughs, "Cause."
Derek grins then closes his mouth around the hand more his teeth touching it, he starts to chew lightly.
James' eyes go wide, "No don't eat it!"
Derek chuckles, and keeps chewing lightly.
James tries to pull his hand out and Derek loosens his hold but keeps chewing lightly. "Please don't eat it."
Derek smiles and opens his mouth so James can remove his hand. James pulls his hand out of Derek's mouth. Then he sticks a slobbery finger in Derek's ear. "Ewww." Derek groans, whiles James is laughing.
"Alright little man I'll get you for that." Derek then starts tickling James.
James squeals with excitement. "DADDY help!" James screams laughing.
Stiles wakes with a start to James squealing with laughter and Derek tickling him. He smiles at them, "Oh no buddy did you let out the tickle monster?"
Derek smiles at Stiles. And keeps tickling James, "I sorry." James squeals.
Derek stops tickling him, "I'll eat it next time. Like a chicken finger." Derek says trying to sound serious but he's smiling.
James' eyes widen and he hides his hands behind his back, "No, hands not chicken fingers." he says.
Stiles watches them smiling, "Derek why is James hiding his hands?"
Derek grins and James answers, "Cause daddy he eat them!"
Derek laughs, as James reaches toward Derek's face. Derek snaps playfully and James hides his hand again. "See daddy. Derek's pokey to."
Stiles chuckles, just then Jeff walks in with a smile. "Hello, James will be fine. I have a prescription for some antibiotics to help fight the cold. Also Derek could I talk to you?"
Derek looks at Stiles then he lifts James off him. "Want me put fingers in?" James asks. Derek turns to him,
"Not this time buddy." James smiles,
"You be nice?" James asks,
Derek chuckles, "Yeah I'll be nice."
James smiles, then Derek walks out the door. "Yes doctor?"
Jeff smiles, "I came back to tell you visiting hours are over and I saw you three."
Derek nods, "You didn't wake me. Why?"
Jeff smiles, "I saw how happy you all looked and James clung to you. I didn't want to wake you. Even Stiles looked happy."
Derek smiles, "Thank you Jeff, for not waking me. Does this mean you no longer have a problem with me?"
Jeff nods, "Yes it does, you probably think I'm a" Jeff whispers so James don't here "dick" Jeff quits whispering, "but I'm not. I'm just protective of my family."
Derek smiles, "I did think that of you, I'm protective of the people I care about as well."
Jeff nods, "So we understand each other. Oh and tell Stiles I put veronica in rehab..." Jeff turns to walk away.
Derek grabs his arm, "Why don't you tell him?"
"Because I don't want to see 'Bout time idiot' look on his face." Jeff answers.
Derek smiles, "Ok I'll tell him." Derek lets go of Jeff and walks back in the room. Derek looks at Stiles with a grin then looks at James and frowns, "Buddy it seems you suffer tickleidis." Stiles grins.
James' eyes go wide, "Bad?"
Derek nods walking back over to the bad. "Yeah it's bad, but there is a cure for it. Want to know it?" James nods, "Well buddy you need to be tickled a lot."
James smiles and tries to hide in Stiles' side. "Not want it, no tickle."
Derek laughs, "Well daddy and I are both giving it."
Then Stiles starts tickling James and he starts giggling, Derek watches them. Then he gets back in the bed and joins in the tickling. James is laughing so much, he is gasping for breaths so Derek and Stiles stop the tickling. Derek smiles and pulls out his phone. "Hey buddy wanna take a picture with me and daddy?"
Stiles looks at Derek and smiles James nods, "Great." Derek sits up his back to the wall. James crawls into Derek's lap and Stiles moves to sit up and he sits by Derek. His back to wall and his arm touching Derek', they all smile and Derek snaps the photo. "Lemme see" James says so Derek shows him. "No good." He says
"Why not buddy?" Stiles asks.
"You hug Derek daddy." Stiles smiles.
"Okay buddy, let's take another Derek." Derek smiles
Stiles wraps his around Derek's shoulders and leans into him smiling bright, Derek snaps the picture. "Lemme see." James says. So Derek shows him the picture. James smiles, "Awesome."
Derek smiles, "Glad you like it."
James looks at Derek, "Derek?"
"Yeah buddy?"
"Thank you."
"For what buddy?"
"You stayed."
Derek smiles, "Your welcome buddy, but I don't know if I can again anytime soon."
Stiles watches them, "Derek what does he mean you stayed?"
Derek looks at Stiles, "James has been asking me to stay the night with him when he goes home. I have been saying I can't."
Stiles looks at Derek and smiles then he looks at James, "Hey buddy I think Derek and I should talk to you."
Stiles flicks his eyes to Derek who nods, "Yeah buddy we don't want you to get confused."
James looks at them both, "Okay."
"Well buddy, Derek will be around a lot but he won't be staying the night. Not for a while."
"Remember our secret, well that's why because daddy doesn't know yet. We can't tell him till he's ready."
Stiles looks at Derek curiously, "What are you talking about Derek?"
Derek looks worried, "I, um, well James asked a question and I told him the answer to that question was our secret, so until I'm ready to tell you myself please don't bug him about it."
Stiles frowns, "We aren't even dating yet and you got my son keeping secrets from me."
Derek chuckles, "Sorry yeah it's not that bad, I plan to tell you soon." Derek smile sweetly wishing he could lean over and kiss him.
Stiles smiles thinking the same thing but neither act on the thoughts, "Well if you tell me soon I guess it's ok. I wonder where Jeff is, I want to take my little man home."
Derek smiles, "I'll go find him." Derek lifts James off him again, and kisses his forehead before leaving the room. His head spinning with thoughts of having a family. Derek walks up to the front desk and asks the lady is she knew where he could find Doctor Hamilton so they could sign James out.
"Oh Mr. Hale you don't need doctor Hamilton to sign him out just gather the child and bring him to the desk around the corner." Said the receptionist.
