"How does it look?" Derek asked, trying to turn and look at himself in the mirror.
Stiles put his hands on the older man's shoulder stopping the movement. He was pretty sure that if Derek saw what he had done to his hair he'd be deader than dead. In fact, if he were Derek he'd have killed himself too.
Scott had been the one to dare Stiles to dye Derek's hair. That should have been the first sign that something was off. Scott's pranks were less juvenile than Stiles's own pranks. Even he could admit that.
But looking at the shocking pink that now covered the once dark hair he couldn't help but let out a little bit of a chuckle. He bit his lip to keep the laughter at bay.
"What?" Derek asked, trying to wrestle his shoulders free from Stiles's grip. "What's wrong with my hair?"
"Um—" he wracked his mind for something to say. Something witty. Something that would diffuse the situation in front of him. He found himself coming up blank. "N—n—nothing. Nothing at all."
Derek raised a dark eyebrow at him. The dark brow raising towards the shockingly pink hair caused to Stiles choke back more laughter. Which didn't seem to be putting Derek any more at ease than it had before.
"You don't laugh at nothing," Derek stated, folding his arms over his chest and cocking his head to the side. "What's wrong with my hair?"
It was then that Derek's uncle walked into the room. Peter Hale certainly wasn't known for his tact. Which made his laughter at the sight of his nephew's hair not all too surprising. The older werewolf was almost doubled over he thought it was that funny.
"Stiles, what did you do to my hair?" Derek said, turning his gaze away from his uncle who was on the verge of breathlessness from his laughter.
"How do you feel about the color pink?" Peter laughed, clutching at his stomach which was starting to ache from all the laughter.
"What does that have to do with my hair?" Derek asked Peter, causing the older wolf to laugh some more. He then turned to Stiles and level him a gaze that promised trouble. "What does the color pink have to do with my hair, Stiles?"
Stiles bit his cheek to keep the laughter in check. He then glared over at Peter. The man did have a horrible habit of getting Stiles into trouble with Derek.
"I want to start out by saying that this was Scott's idea not mine," Stiles said, holding up his hands in an I surrender gesture. "He may have convinced me to dye your hair a shockingly alarming shade of pink."
"Pink?" Derek asked, turning around in the chair to see what had become of his once glorious raven hair. He raised a hand to touch the soft locks of hair more than likely hoping that this was a wig and Stiles hadn't actually dyed his hair pink.
"Pink," Stiles repeated, nodding.
Peter howled with uncontrollable mirth at this. The sight of his nephew with shocking pink highlighter color hair was just too hilarious to pass up laughing at. He could see Derek narrowing his eyes at him but just couldn't stop laughing.
"I can dye my hair pink too if that will make you feel better," Stiles said, glaring at Peter and mouthing stop it at the older wolf.
"No," Derek said, smirking at Stiles. "But I think fighting fire with fire would be interesting in this case."
"You've got a plan?"
"You know me."
Stiles did know Derek very well. Well enough to know that Scott had better prepare for something terribly horribly hilarious to be aimed his way. With Stiles, himself, being the one to pull the prank off.
I hope you all enjoyed Pink Hair and Pranks as much as I enjoyed writing it.
