    Summary

    [Stiles]
    I can’t sleep :(

    He knew staring wasn’t going to make Derek respond any faster—if he was even awake this time—but he kept the message open anyway, waiting. After a solid minute, he was pretty sure Derek was asleep, and was about to put his phone back down when he finally saw the three dots appear, denoting that he was typing.

    Waiting, he knew Derek had to be typing and deleting things, because he spent much too long typing for the two words he sent in response over thirty seconds later.

    [Derek]
    Who cares?

    “Wha—?” Stiles sputtered aloud, and then began to respond immediately.

    [Stiles]
    :(
    [Stiles]
    don’t you care about me now?

    Summary

    “Always such a smartass,” Finstock insisted, shaking his head. “What, you want a gold star for your mediocre performance?”

    “If you’ve got any, I’d love one,” Stiles informed him.

    “You’re too old for a gold star, Bilinski.”

    “Hey, hey,” Stiles argued, holding one hand out towards the man as he headed back for the board—evidently forgetting Greenberg now had his marker. “Sometimes adults need gold stars, too.” When Coach turned back to give him a look, Stiles just shrug-flailed. “We’re all just little gremlins starving for attention! Do you know how satisfying a gold star would be? Right here?” Stiles motioned his right pectoral up near his shoulder. “Just a cute little star right there. ‘Good Job!’ or ‘I’m proud of you!’ or even just ‘Well done!’ So satisfying. Or what about like, a hero biscuit?” Stiles mimed nibbling on a cookie. “Cute little bone-shaped cookie made for heroes? Wouldn’t that just brighten your day?”

    “Stop talking or I’ll bench you.”

    “I’m always benched,” Stiles argued.

    Summary

    “How are you?” Stiles asked, falling onto the couch beside Derek and leaning heavily into him. “How was your day? How’s the book?” He kissed his cheek once. Twice. Then two more times in quick succession.

    Derek turned to look at him, Stiles affecting his most innocent expression as he patiently waited for Derek to answer his questions.

    Instead of doing so, Derek slowly closed his book, losing his page, and set it on the coffee table in front of them. Then he turned to look at Stiles, leaning back slightly against the arm rest, and crossed his arms.

    “What do you want?”

    Summary

    Now, Eijun, his mother had told him, serious in a way she rarely was, round face kind and young. He gets his eyes from her, but where hers are like a dawning sun, his are all fire. If it’s there for the taking, isn’t it your responsibility to do so?

    Anyone who feels responsibility isn’t free. But Eijun doesn’t know how to be afraid, so he isn’t.

    (His heart may be twice as big as his lungs and sturdy, but it’s still growing into its spaces, finding its footing when it comes to things that are complicated. Eijun just doesn’t know how to not love something with all he is.)

     

    Or, Sawamura Eijun learns how to stand on his own two legs, falls, and gets back up again. Featuring matters of heart, what makes a team, and how one Miyuki Kazuya somehow becomes part of it all.

    Summary

    “You’re back,” he said, sounding as surprised as he looked. “I didn’t think you would be.”

    “Why not?” Stiles asked, confused and still half-asleep. He yawned as he rubbed both hands across his face again, and then froze at the next words out of Jeremy’s mouth.

    “I figured you’d spend the weekend with your boyfriend.”

    His what?

    “My what?” he asked aloud.

    “Your boyfriend,” Jeremy said, tilting his head slightly in confusion. “The angry, overprotective dude who came to get you? You could’ve just told us it was your boyfriend you know, you didn’t have to give us the song and dance ‘he’s my dad’s deputy’ routine. I kind of figured out you were lying about that in first year when you moved in with him for the summer.”

    Stiles stared at him, completely flabbergasted about this entire situation.

    “What the fuck are you talking about?”
