Isn't obvious? I love you

Chapter 38

One month, one month had passed since Stiles asked Derek to marry him. One month since Stiles asked for himself and Derek to come together as one and spend the rest of their lives together.

Lying on his back with his arm tossed over his head, Derek laid awake as he could feel Stiles eyes boring into him.

"You're staring!" Derek's lips curved into a smirk he playfully hissed.

"It's called gazing."

"It's creepy Stop it."

"It's romantic!" Stiles giggled as he traced patterns against Derek's skin.

"Stiles stop that tickles." Derek let a small giggle escape his throat.

At this point the alpha wanted nothing more than to stay in this spot all day, he wanted to stay cuddled up with Stiles even with knowing he still had a lot to do yet.

It wasn't long before Stiles broke the awkward silence between them, sitting up on his elbow he gazed at Derek while he still traced Derek's skin.

"I never thought I see this day." Stiles sighed breaking his gaze.

"Why?" turning his head Derek looked up to Stiles' faded smile.

"Well because we got off on a rough start in the beginning."

"That's because I was too scared to admit I had feelings for you, I was scared that if I allowed myself to be gay that everything would change. And you know me I'm not good with change, so I didn't want anything to change. "

Stiles sat quite for a minute like he was to scared to say what was on his mind, but like any spouse the alpha knew something was playing on Stiles' mind.

"Baby what's on your mind?"

"It's nothing really. I just I don't know Derek."

"Babe I don't know if you don't tell me, talk to me. You know you can tell me anything."

"I just don't want you to feel like I'm forcing you into anything you don't want to do."

"Listen to me you are Not making me do anything I don't want to do, I love you and I guess I always have, I was too much of dick not to tell you. I need you Stiles you have changed my life, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be where I am today. "

Derek flipped on his side, taking his hand he rubbed across Stiles' face. "I love you Stiles."

"I love you Derek more than you could ever know, I just wish I could put it into words but I can't."

"I don't need you to explain it Stiles I feel the same way, without you I'd be lost. Look I know we have the wedding coming up and all, but I think we need to take a day and be together. How about we take a road trip get out of State?"

"Yeah you want you too?"

"Yes." Derek gently took Stiles lips in his, kissing him slowly.

"When do we go?"

"Now"

Springing out of bed, Stiles headed for Derek's dresser. - pulling the draws open he tossed some clothes onto the bed.

Once all packed and ready to hit the road, both Derek and Stiles loaded the truck slamming the trunk closed Derek laced his fingers with Stiles, leading him to the passenger's side of the truck.

Opening the door the alpha helped Stiles inside, hooking his seatbelt so he knew that his mate was safe.

Taking his lips in his own once more Derek sighed. "Here we go, there's no turning back now."

"Well stop playing around and lets go. " Stiles playful smacked at his man.

Climbing in the driver's seat Derek quickly jammed the key into the ignition, throwing the gear shift into drive he sped off out of the drive way.

His lips curved in a smirk from one ear to the other, he reached his hand out popping a disc into the CD player, skipping tracks until he found one he wanted to listen too. Propping his feet up on the dashboard, Stiles laid his seat back.

Lacing their fingers together Stiles gazed to the alpha happy to finally have some time with just the two of them. Happy that they didn't have to worry about anyone else being around.

Happy that they could be free and say or do anything they wanted to do, go anywhere they wanted to go.

"So where are we going?" Stiles questioned.

"Anywhere you wanna go." Derek smirked to the younger male.

Snatching the map out of the glove box he glanced over it, trying to find a place they could go. – But Stiles wanted to go somewhere nice, somewhere he would never forget.

Derek watched Stiles from the comer of his eyes laughing to himself at how happy he had just made the younger male.

"I have an Idea, close your eyes and put finger anywhere on the map and where it points to is where we will go. "

Doing as he was told to do, Stiles closed his eyes and pointed to one place on the map. – when opening them he looked right to the alpha.

"Look to where you pointed to."

Looking down Stiles seen where his finger had landed, his face lit up he had always wanted to go this place as a kid growing up mainly because his mom had always said that was her favorite state.

"Tallahassee Florida, I've always wanted to go there."

"Tallahassee it is then." Derek flashed his lover a quick smirk.

"Are you sure you can drive all that way though?"

"Well they have places called rest stops and we can stop and sleep if need be."

Derek knew this was going to be long drive but he didn't care because all that mattered to him right now was that he wanted his lover to be happy, so he was willing to drive 2,259 miles to see the love of his happy.

Derek would go to the end of the earth to make Stiles happy because nothing made Derek more than to see Stiles happy, if it would have been anyone else Derek wouldn't be so quick to just up and leave the only home he's ever known.
