Derek nods and as Stiles walks away, he can’t help but follow him to the doors. He pulls on a spare scrub top as he goes, to cover the destroyed one. He watches Stiles go to where Scott’s waiting in the police cruiser and Derek gets this insane urge to follow him outside. Stiles gives him a big, dopey grin and a little wave and Derek can’t help but smile back, something in his chest loosening. Something that feels a lot like hope. Derek really doesn’t want to let him out of his sight. When Melissa comes up to him and puts an arm around his shoulders, Derek faces her and he wonders if he looks as lost as he feels. “I like him...” Derek offers, quietly. “Oh sweetie,” Melissa says, giving him a little squeeze and a smile. “Don’t look so surprised. That boy’s adored you since he was twelve years old, I’m shocked it took you so long to catch up.”
