Scott came by the day before he was meant to go back to school, he and Stiles hadn't really spent much time together so he really wanted to go and say goodbye to him and the twins.

Stiles answered the door quickly and ushered Scott into the hall.
"Hey buddy" Stiles sounded out of breath.
"Hey man, what's up?" Scott asked.
"Cleaning, the place is a mess. You wanna help?" Stiles asked flashing Scott the puppy dog eyes. Stiles doesn't know why he even bothers considering how Scott is the world champion at puppy dog eyes.
"Nah man, I think I'll just chill with the twins" Scott told him.
"Derek has them but they should be back soon so you can wait if you want" Stiles said walking into the living room and picking up a stuffed animal that was on the floor.
"I thought he had them Saturdays" Scott huffed as he sat on the couch.
"Yeah and on Wednesdays and Tuesdays when I work" Stiles began to pick up some legos that had obviously missed the box when the boys were throwing them in.
"Exactly, it's Monday" Scott huffed again.
"I called him and asked him to take them for a bit so I could clean this place up" Stiles tried to walk on his knees over to where the toy cars are lined up, so he could put them back into the toy box.
"You could have called me, I would have watched them" Scott said.
"That's nice buddy, thanks but they're fine with Derek" Stiles said hoping not to get to much of a reaction out of Scott.
"Where are they anyway?" Scott asked.
"They went for a walk I think" Stiles said.

Around ten minutes later Derek arrived back with the twins.
"Need a hand?" Stiles asked from the door where he was watching Derek struggle to get the double stroller through the yard gate.
"I hate this thing" Derek said seriously. He really did, ever since the first time he saw it he has hated it. The stroller is completely Stiles, one side is orange while the other is blue and it is covered in different coloured monsters. Derek hates it because it's so in your face, the last thing he want's is to draw more attention to himself and the twins. He's heard some of the older woman gossiping already, "Why is that Derek Hale with the sheriff's grandsons" "He's hardly the nanny now is he" "Stiles should be more careful about who he lets around his children".
"Just take them out and then fold it up" Stiles told him.
Derek unstrapped Charlie first and then Logan, he watched the both of them run up the garden path and climb the porch steps to get to Stiles. Scott appeared at the door then and Derek's next quip about the damn stroller dried on his tongue.

Scott was in the living room with the twins so Derek went into the kitchen and started washing the dishes. Derek could hear Stiles telling Scott that he was going to start the laundry and then he heard Stiles walk upstairs obviously to get the dirty clothes hamper from the bathroom. Stiles came into the kitchen then.
"Dude why are you doing the dishes?" Stiles asked laughing slightly.
"Would you rather I not do the dishes?" Derek asked.
Stiles stuck his tongue out at Derek walking into the small utility room. A few minutes later he reappeared and wordlessly started drying the dishes that Derek had placed on the drainer. Derek smiled to himself, he could see this being their life. Doing the dishes together while their sons played in the other room.

"Hey Stiles, they're getting super cranky. Is it nap time or something?" Scott asked walking into the kitchen.
"Yeah I'll go put them down" Stiles quickly wiped his hands on the cloth and went to get the boys.

Derek finished the last dish in silence and dried his hands before turning around to see Scott glaring at him from the doorway.
"What?" Derek asked raising his eyebrows.
"Nothing" Scott huffed.
"No, you've had a problem with me since you've been home. What is it?" Derek asked.
"Since I've been home? you've hardly been back what a month, two even" Scott exploded.
"You have a problem with me being back?" Derek asked, feeling his own anger rising.
"I have a problem with you just waltzing in here pretending to be super dad like nothing is wrong" Scott was furious now.
"I'm not pretending to be anything, I am their father. Why do you have such a bring thing against that?"
"You're hardly their father" Scott snorted.
"What the hell Scott?!" Stiles asked from behind him.
"Stay out of it Stiles" Scott said not turning from Stiles.
"I am their father whether you like it or not" Derek told him.
"You haven't been here!" Scott shouted.
"And you think I'm okay with that? okay with missing their first steps, first words because I'm not. Nothing will make that okay but I'm here now and believe me if I had of known about them I would have been here from day one"
"But you weren't here"
"I'm here now" Derek said.
"Scott what is this about? because I don't think this is just about Derek" Stiles asked.
"He's just like him, why can't you see that" Scott spun around to face Stiles.
"No he isn't Scott, Derek is a good father and he didn't walk out on them. How could he have? he didn't know they existed, he didn't even know their was a possibility for them to exist" Stiles took a step closer to Scott, "Derek is not your dad, Scott" Stiles wrapped his arms around his best friend and hugged as tight as he could.
"I'm sorry, I'm gonna go home" Scott whispered into Stiles' shoulder. Stiles nodded and let go of him.

Derek let out the breath he hadn't realised he'd been holding as soon as the front door closed behind Scott.

"He doesn't really mean it, he's just projecting" Stiles told him with a sigh.
"I get it" Derek said, he did get it. He'd been angry with himself too as if he somehow should have known. As if it was possible for him to have known.

Derek ended up staying and helping Stiles tidy the rest of the kitchen, eventually they were both exhausted and somehow ended up on the couch watching Judge Judy.
"Dad won't be home 'till late so I was going to order pizza, you in?" Stiles asked.
Derek simply nodded his head.

Derek went upstairs to get the boys before the pizza came and Stiles went to check what was in the fridge for them to eat. He ended up putting some dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets in the oven and a tin of spaghettios in a pot over the stove.

The boys sat in their highchairs and chatted between themselves, Derek could only pick the words ball, kitty and yum from their conversation.

Seven O'Clock rolled around way later than it should have and both Derek and Stiles went upstairs to put the boys to bed. Charlie insited Derek tell the story so Stiles sat on the floor in front of his bed listening.

Derek crawled over to where Stiles was after both of the boys were asleep.
"I'm so tired" Stiles whispered, dropping his head back against the bed.
"Me too" Derek sighed.
"You wanna crash here?" Stiles whispered.
"You mind?" Derek whispered back.
"No dude, c'mon"
Stiles threw Derek a pair of sleep pants and put a pair on himself and then clawed into his bed. Derek got into the bed behind him.
"What?" Derek huffed while Stiles was trying to muffle his laughter in his pillow.
"Dude this is what are lives are, it's like seven thirty and we're in bed" Stiles whispered.
Derek chuckled into the back of Stiles neck causing him to shiver.
"Why did you name them Charlie and Logan?" Derek asked suddenly.
"You don't like their names?" Stiles mock gasped and clutched his chest.
"No I do but I just realised that I don't even know why my sons are named what they are? I don't even know their middle names"
"It's Logan Scott and Charlie Jonathan after my dad and Scott obviously and then well duh dude Wolverine and Professor X" Stiles grinned, he could feel Derek chuckle from behind him.
"You're an idiot" Derek told him.

John couldn't help but smile when he saw his son snoring while being the little spoon to Derek when he came home that night. It was about damn time.

"Hi" Stiles looked up from the cereals he was debating.
"Hey" Stiles said back sticking his hand out to the girl infront of him.
"I'm Kylie" Stiles smiled while she wrote he number on his arm in black ink.

Please review :) It's funny that stroller is the reason I started this fic, like last June I saw it and instantly pictures Stiles walking around town with it. My tumblr is if any of you want to come and talk to me
