The offset of relationships and stress in the pack must have pushed their heat back for another few weeks or so. It was not uncommon for packs to have shifting heats, it just made everyone uncomfortable, and they were like periods. You get yourself prepped and ready to face it with a loud shout of 'COME AT ME BRO!' only for it to leave you high and dry with a laugh of 'ain't nobody got time for that'.
Gemini and Stiles were joined at the hip despite their mate's obvious aversion to it. They had always been together but only now did that pack realize how much. They were always sitting intertwined on the couch giggling and whispering using magic to keep the wolves from hearing. It had never really been an issue, until it was.
"Hey jealous wolf" Stiles said walking into the kitchen arms linked with Gemini
"are you seething with primal rage yet?" Gemini asked bumping her hips with Stiles "Gonna grunt out your displeasure in Latin?"
"How about you Isaac? You ready to rip my head off yet?" Stiles leaned over and rubbed his head against Gemini's "Gonna nuzzle me to death and drown me in tears?"
Both of the wolves just rolled their eyes while Scott and Boyd snickered.
"Come on baby" Stiles said to Gemini "Lets go take a nap"
"Can we cuddle?" She asked fluttering her eye lashes at him
"We can do more if our boyfriends don't mind" Stiles winked and left the room humming something that sounded suspiciously like One More Night by Maroon 5
"This is your fault Derek" Isaac said once the witches were up the stairs.
"How is this my fault?" He didn't stop abusing the apple with his pocket knife
"We have to trust them and give them there space" Isaac mimicked Derek's voice
"We do!" Derek sounded tired
"They had sex Derek!" Isaac snapped again his eyes burning blue. "I haven't even had sex with her yet! And I'm damn well sure Stiles isn't asking you to loosen up his buttons"
There was a gaffing laugh before Stiles and Gemini phased through the roof and landed onto the kitchen floor.
"I'm telling you to loosen up my buttons babe!" Gemini choked
"But you keep fronting, saying what you gon do to me" Stiles was laughing so hard he almost couldn't get the word out
"But I ain't see nothing!" They sang together and erupted into laughter, there were actual tears coming down their faces. They squirmed around the floor kicking and stamping and all together losing their shit. After a while everyone was laughing, some at them and some with them.
"You guys are cute as fuck" Stiles laughed calming down a bit
"Stiles is like my brother" Gemini threw a hand around his shoulder "we'd have to be drunk, high, and on an acid trip for that to happen again. You're the only one for me Isaac"
"Like wise for you Derek" Stiles rolled his eyes "you'd think we'd be the one's with the insecurities in these relationships"
Gemini gave an exaggerated sigh "I guess girls just have to do all the work"
"Stop playing the games!" Stiles sounded scandalized "I am not the girl!"
"He never kisses me in public" Gemini complained in his voice "and he never touches me, I'm not made of glass!"
"I was high!" Stiles tried to defend himself "and what about you?"
"What about me?"
"You're a sex addict!"
"You were my first time!" She yelled tackling him, they wrestled on the kitchen floor before breaking off into laughter again.
"Ya'll mother fuckers need Jesus" Boyd muttered through a mouth full of chocolate chip pancakes
"Do you really want people like us in a church?" Stiles asked,
"Fuck you I went to church! I taught Sunday school" Gemini announced
More than one person scoffed at her, she jumped to her feet "I am a Christian!"
"Are you serious?" Boyd swiveled in his chair
"Yes!" She screamed "I know the hymns and a good couple of bible versus off the top of my head"
"John 3:16"
"For God so loved the world he gave his only begotten son so that whosoever believeth in him shall not perish"
"But have ever lasting life" Boyd finished smiling at her "That's surprising"
"Yeah I know" she shrugged "Me and God have our disagreements but he's there for me when I come crying. More than I can say for humanity. God blessed me enough for me to stumble into these woods and find friends like you. He's given me a family and someone to love me; he's been there for me through it all. It's not what I do when I'm acting stupid around the house that he judges me on, it's the way I am when the shit hits the fan."
Boyd looked like he was going to cry, he patted her on top of her head as he walked past on his way out of the kitchen.
"Well that was cute as fuck" Isaac grinned
"Hush" she told him going over to sit on his lap
Stiles made a not so subtle coughing noise and looked at Gemini
"Hey Isaac let's go upstairs" she murmured into his ear rubbing her hand along his chest
"Yeah" he nods looking absent. She gets up swinging her hips and smirking at him over her shoulder, he tripped over himself following her up the stairs.
"What's all that about?" Scott asked
"I want to bring Gemini home and introduce her to my dad" Stiles bit his lip
"Why?"
"She lived here before I was born but maybe my dad will know who her mother was. So she's going to butter up Isaac before I take her to meet my dad."
"Why does she need to butter up Isaac?" Scott pouted
"He'll never be able to introduce her to his father, or anyone in his family for that matter" Derek said frowning
"Oh."
"Stiles I feel bad" Gemini had her feet up on his dash board "He didn't look upset but he nuzzled my neck and whimpered." She was biting her lip and fidgeting more than usual. Stiles figured he could just give her one of his Aderall if she kept this up
"You have nothing to feel bad about" He kept trying to keep her calm but nothing was working.
"God what if he hates me, I keep pushing lines Stiles!" She was close to freaking out "I've spent the last two weeks fucking with him! An now I go and pull some shit like this"
"Oh my god shut up!" He snapped his fingers, Gemini blinked because now she was chewing on a mouth full of candy corn. "You will be fine, Isaac can't hate anyone. He loves you, he loves you a lot, and it's fucking gross honestly. You're almost as bad as me and Derek and were pretty damn bad. Remember that time on the couch during Iron man 2? God I can't wait for Iron Man 3 like holy hell we have to go and see that shit together. Were taking Scott and Erica too because she's my Catwoman and he's my Batman." She gave him a thumbs up as she took one candy corn out of her mouth and stuffed it in his mouth.
They were at the house in a few minutes; Stiles parked outside and looked over at his companion
"Ready to unlock the secrets of the past?"
Gemini rolled her eyes "I remember this house" she slid out of the truck slowly and waited for Stiles to join her, they walked towards the house hand in hand.
"Dad!" Stiles yelled out "Come meet my friend"
"Stiles I've already met Scott" yelled from the kitchen
Gemini laughed so hard she had to clutch at her stomach
"That's not Scott's laugh"
Stiles pulled Gemini into the kitchen "Dad this is Gemini, she's the neighborhood pain in the ass"
Gemini scoffed and stood straight "Hello Sheriff Stilinski, My name is Gemini-"
"Moon" The sheriff finished "Gemini Moon"
Gemini blinked "Yeah, that's me"
The Sheriff stood and grabbed Gemini's hand "Hello Gemini, you can call me Simon"
She cast an unsure look at Stiles but he just shrugged looking confused as well "I think I'll stick with Sheriff for now."
"Sure, that's great." He smiled brightly and led her to a chair "sit down, would you like something to drink, something to eat"
"We ate before we got here" Stiles said sitting in the chair next to her, she immediately slumped against his side.
"I'm good" she said shyly
"No she won't" he flicked her forehead "she'll take a bottle of water"
She pouted but said nothing. The Sheriff looked startled
"Are you two" he point his finger at the two of them looking sick "are the two of you together"
His tone struck a chord in the both of them, they clasped hands
"What if we were?" Stiles narrowed his eyes
"Would that bother you Simon?" His name came out of her mouth as a literal hiss
He coughed "It would make me rather uncomfortable" he sat down looking a mixture of sick and scared
"And why is that?" Gemini asked leaning forward
"Well" The Sheriff ran a hand through his hair "I've known you since you were born" he was grabbing for words under the scrutiny of both teenagers
"Since I was born?" Gemini asked loosening up a it "so that means you know my mother?"
"Yes" he was cautious "I knew you're mother."
"Knew?" Gemini slumped back against Stiles with a frown "So my mother is dead?"
"I'll answer your question if you answer mine" the Sheriff was adamant "Are you dating my son"
"No I'm not dating Stiles, he's like family to me" she snapped "now could you please answer my question"
"Yes" he answered after a second "your birth mother's dead, she has been for years now"
Stiles cursed softly and drew her into a hug
"She loved you Gemini" he told her firmly "She was depressed for weeks after you're father took you away from her."
"Did you know her very well?" Gemini asked quietly practically melting into Stiles
"I did" he nodded "I knew her before you were born, before you were even conceived. She went through a lot for you during her pregnancy but she refused to give you up. She was a real fighter; she could never take a life. She was beautiful and terrible and everything all raped into one." The Sheriff rubbed his hand through his hair again "She was magic"
"You knew about her magic?" Gemini was silent as Stiles took over for her; she looked drained
"She was one of the most powerful witches the world has ever known, you've been doing magic since you were a toddler." He laughed once "and now you're back, she told me this would happen. She said that you would come back when Beacon Hills needed the Magic of ages."
He chuckles "I never understood all the mombo jumbo your mother and Deaton spoke about half the time. It took me months to understand what was going on when the werewolves came back to Beacon Hills"
"Dad" Stiles was at a loss for words, he had known. It seemed like he had known for a really long time.
"It's okay Stiles, you were just protecting the people you care about. Now it's time I do the same. There are a lot of things I need to tell you kids"
"I can see that" Stiles sounded almost breathless "Dad are you a witch"
The Sheriff gave him a small smile "No son I was never a witch, my past goes in the opposite direction but it leads right back to the magic, right back to your mother. I loved her so much" he took a deep breath and pressed on "You're mother saved me from myself and I owe her more than my life. I owe her my sanity and my soul, I owe your mother my honest to God soul.
"My mother or his?" Gemini asked, she had moved out of his hug, opting instead to intertwine their fingers.
"Both"
