This story is so weird to me now. Believe it or not, but it is based on true events, especially the event with Isaac. I'm a terrible sometimes. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Derek:

You did what?

4:31pm

Stiles:

I gave him some of my special peppermint soap. It was the funniest voicemail ever.

4:33pm

Derek:

lol oh man, I'd love to hear it.

4:41pm

Stiles:

Can you come to the library? We close at 8.

4:42pm

Derek:

Will do. Be there around 6 or so.

5:04pm

Stiles puts his phone away, not able to help the dumb smile on his face. He'll never admit it to himself, but he's kind of excited to see Derek again.

It's been about a month since they met, but they both have been too busy to actually hang out. When Stiles was free, Derek wasn't or vice versa. They still haven't been to the comic book store.

And now they finally have a time when they can meet up, even if it's during Stiles' work hours. Hopefully his boss won't mind.

A giggle escapes Stiles' lips as he picks up a couple books to shelve. He's thinking back to the reason he texted Derek in the first place. Isaac.

Stiles loves to experiment and try new things. This particular time he decided that he really wanted some new soap. He's sick of Axe body wash and the fact that every guy in Beacon Hills also showers with it. So he chose to separate himself from the crowd – and yes, he's that guy.

He decided on Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap, the peppermint kind, because he loves anything mint.

The moment he showers with the soap he feels amazing. It made him feel super clean. The only issue he had was the tingling sensation on his family jewels. It's definitely something to get used to.

The cooling sensation after the air hits you sucks as well.

You know when you chew mint gum and your mouth gets really cold when you breathe? Imagine that feeling all over your body, including the sensitive places.

The first thing Stiles did after he used the soap was text Derek about it. They had a funny chat, and the thought suddenly hit him to let Isaac try it out. Of course he omitted the after effects when he told his lanky friend about it.

His smile grows bigger.

6:15pm

Derek casually strolls into what looks like an empty library. He spots Stiles at the front desk and smiles. "Stiles" He says loudly, catching the boy's attention.

Stiles looks up from the book he was reading and grins. "Hey, dude. Long time no see." He closes the book and moves it aside, giving him his full attention.

Derek walks over and leans against the desk, "Let me hear the voicemail." He says, not even bothering with small talk. After all they've been texting each other since the day they met.

"Oh right." Stiles pulls out his phone and brings up the message. He plugs in his headset and hands it all to Derek. "Try not to laugh too loud. It's the funniest thing ever."

Derek nods as he pops in the earbuds and hits the play button.

Stiles watches in amusement as Derek's face makes the funniest expressions. He tries to keep quiet, but some chuckles escape. He's listened to the voicemail like 50 times and memorized every part of it. He can't wait to see Derek's reaction to his favorite part.

And there it is! The sound of Derek cracking up is the funniest thing. Stiles can't stop laughing.

They quickly quiet down before anyone could say anything.

Derek hands the set back to Stiles, still laughing. "Oh my god. Dude you have to let me borrow that soap. Oh man." He chuckles.

"Alright. Definitely." He says with a laugh.

After Derek's laughter calms, he pulls himself together. His look turns remorseful, "I'm sorry to do this, but I have to go."

Stiles frowns a little, "What? You just got here?"

"I know and I'm sorry. But you remember I told you about that girl, Jennifer? We have a date tonight and I have to get home to shower."

Suddenly Stiles realizes that Derek is in his work uniform. Derek's a maintenance man at the Mansion at Beacon Hills Luxury Apartments.

"Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that. Well thanks for squeezing me into your schedule. It was nice to see you anyway." Stiles gives Derek a real smile, willing to take what he can get."

Derek frowns, his face vividly displays how sorry he is. "You're welcome." He starts to back out of the library. "I'll text you later, man." He says and checks his watch. "Crap." He looks back to Stiles, "I'm on vacation next week, so let's hang out when you're off. Text me. Later." He says quickly, giving Stiles a quick wave and disappearing.

"Bye." Stiles huffs after he's gone.

8 o'clock comes quick and Stiles can't be happier. He gets into his jeep and starts it up. He's still a little bummed about Derek's quick visit. He's trying to feel the positivity of Derek willing to show up in the first place, but he still can't help feeling like something is missing.

"Damn it. I'm getting attached." His head falls on the wheel. "Not again. Maybe I need to get busier. Or expand my circle of friends."

He sits up and pulls out his phone and earbuds. He pops them in and pulls up Isaac's voicemail.

"STILES! What the hell kind of soap is this? Ah! Oh my god! You didn't tell me this was damn icy hot! I used it all over my body and my balls are cold and on fire at the same freaking time! I am literally running around butt ass naked! UGH! Call me back!"

The voicemail ends and Stiles can't stop laughing, his spirits suddenly lifted as he makes his way home with a smile and a chuckle every now and then.

3 Months Later

Derek is sitting across from Stiles in the back of a small diner, Presley's. "This place is my favorite." He says as he flips through the paper menu, looking for any of their new specials. "They have the best burgers."

"Do they?" Stiles asks, smiling from ear to ear. Derek's never been this happy before, but for some reason he's just really excited. "Why are you looking in the menu? The way you talk about this place it seems like you've been here like a billion times."

He looks up at Stiles, still smiling, "They always have something new when I come here. Plus I'm happy today, so I want to view all of my options." And with that he goes back to searching the menu.

Stiles already decided on a basic cheeseburger. It's noon on a Saturday and he's still a little full from his early morning cereal. "From our conversations, you are a 25 year old guy who is never happy. What's changed?"

Derek smiles behind his menu, "I finally found a semblance of clarity. " He looks like he wants to say something else, but their waitress shows up. "Hi, Beverly." He says to her lovingly. She's like a second mom to him.

Beverly is an older woman with a motherly grin and bright red lips, "Hi, Derek." She smiles at the man, and then looks over to his younger friend, "Hello, I'm Beverly."

Stiles looks from Derek to Beverly with a grin, noticing the mother-son relationship Derek seems to have with the waitress. "Hello, Beverly. I'm Stiles."

"Stiles? A Stilinski in my restaurant that's not the Sherriff. Odd." She says with a smile. "Your father comes in here a lot, often complaining about his health freak of a son named Stiles." She says to clear his confusion.

Stiles is gaping, "I can't believe he called me a health freak." He chuckles. "Unbelievable. Anyway, can I get a water, please?"

I'm not 100% sure if I'm going to continue this one. I haven't made any plans for it, so I don't even have a direction beyond this chapter. In a way, this could be the end, with you guys filling in what happened in between those three months.

Now that I say that, maybe I will take you guys on a small journey. Possibly 1-3 small chapters on what happened in those three months that got Stiles and Derek to this place. We'll see.
