Work Text:
Scott and the others were surrounded by the hunters and they were trying to hide from their poisoned bullets. One of the sniper had his target pointed on Scott's head, the alpha was trying to think what to do, when a familiar noise came from his left and in a second the hunter was under a light blue jeep tire.
"You didn't think you were doing this without me, didja?" Stiles leant out of the window
"Without us?" Derek appeared next to the car, leaving a kiss on Stiles' forehead before turning his eyes blue and jumping on the hunters.
While the supernatural creatures threw themselves into the battle, disarming and knocking all the bad guys out, Stiles got out of the car and closer to Lydia.
"I can't believe that you didn't tell me about any of this, Lyd. We text everyday!"
"You were on the other side of the country, to be trained, remember? Do you tell me everything?"
Stiles turned pale
"Mine was just a backchat, but you're really hiding something, aren't you?"
"We'll talk later" he shushed her, getting closer to the group reunited around Decaulion's body.
Scott hugged him, before throwing himself into Derek's arms, that had been away longer.
"That's nice" Stiles said watching his best friend and boyfriend hugging.
When the hugged started to endure, he realised how close they were
"Okay, not too close. Watch the hands, Scotty!"
The rest of the pack began to chuckle
"All right, let's just break that up" he put himself physically between the two werewolves, making Scott moving and taking his place into Derek's arms, hiding his face into his neck.
"And I thought the animal here was Derek" Peter commented earning a glare from both the men.
Peter raised his hands in surrender
"I'll behave, even because Stiles has..." The human's eyes opened wide, a little scared "... a weird smell".
Stiles hid his head deeper into Derek's neck and his boyfriend started caressing his hair and placed a kiss on them.
"Not now, Uncle Peter. Please" The epithet, and the tone, Derek used made the beta stopped asking questions, but also concerned him.
Their talks were interrupted by Gerald who used Stiles's jeep radio to communicate with them.
The five friends hid into the vet clinic, to talk without being disturbed. Scott and the others wanted to know how their two friends got involved into Beacon Hills problems, if one was in Quantico at the academy and the other was suppose to go back and forth from Virginia and South America, to stay closer to his sister. But before that...
"What you're not telling us?" Lydia spoke
"It's... weird, like super weird" Stiles said.
"More that the fact the everyone around you are supernatural creatures and you've been one, years ago?"
"It's a not common thing neither in the supernatural world" Derek took the floor "In my family, as far as I know, it's never happened, but the alpha of Cora's pack told me that in the south continent has already happened more than once "
"You're making me worry, guys." Scott said, looking between his two friends.
Stiles looked at Derek and, leaving the hand he was holding, he moved to the side of the table and opened the buttons of his plaid shirt. Reached the bottom he stopped, took a deep breath and turned on his side.
"Are you..." Lydia started
"What is..." Scott was confused, as always
"Are you having a cub?" Malia asked
"A cub? What..." Scott was always more confused
"Am I going to be an aunt?" Lydia's eyes were wet
"Well, actually, I am going to be an aunt, cause I'm Derek's cousin" Malia stated
"I'm Stiles' best friend" responded Lydia
"Aunt?"
"Well, Scotty, you'll be more an uncle" Stiles said, laughing a bit for his best friend confusion, realising some of the stress that was eating him.
"Are you pregnant, Stiles? With Derek's baby?"
"Well, I hope so" Derek replied hugging his boyfriend from behind, caressing his little baby bump.
"Yes, Scotty, I am. We're having a baby. We wanted to wait, make the announcement in a better moment, but it seems I'm too transparent." He chuckled, pressing himself more against Derek's body "I know you have a lot on your mind right now, so we can postpone this weird conversation to wh-"
He's monologue was interrupted by two wolf-strong arms that crashed him into a hug.
"I'm gonna be an uncle! I'm gonna buy them a lot of presents, teach them how to play lacrosse, say 'yes' when you two will say 'no'. It will be awesome"
Everyone in the room laughed, except for Stiles. Stiles was crying, happy tears and relif tears.
"I was worry that you wouldn't accept this and you'd be angry and-"
"Stiles! You're my best friend, my brother, my family, I love you."
"Pack hug" Lydia called.
When they parted, Malia said:
"Dad is right, you have a different smell, more sweet."
"Yes, I noticed too. That's how I figured it out, or at least it's what made me realised something was happening. Fortunately, Stiles accompanied me to Cora and her Alpha helped us figured this out"
Derek placed his nose into Stiles' neck and the boy turned around to do the same.
"The baby is making you turn into a werewolves, Stiles?" Lydia asked
"I've always liked to hide my face into Derek's neck" he turned a little red "but now I feel like I can really smell something and it calms me"
"You can't fight" Scott exclaimed out of nowhere.
"Well, Scotty, I never really fight, don't I? I'm the mind" Lydia hit him with his elbow "one of the minds of the pack. Moreover the hunter won't attack me... I think at least"
"The hunters are not our only problem. There is a monster, it's called the Anuk-ite. It can get into your head and make you see things, it knows what you're afraid of, what you fear the most." Stiles' hand landed instinctively on his belly.
"And it can kill you just by looking at you." Lydia added.
"So we've gotta go up against this thing blind and face our deepest fear?" Stiles asked nervous.
Derek sensed the distress and placed his arms around his boyfriend.
"One of Stiles' deepest fear is become blind."
"Oh... you'd never told me, Stiles" Scott pointed.
"Have you ever asked yourself why I want a little light when we go to sleep?"
"I thought it was because you wake up at least twice a night and you didn't want to stumble"
"Well... also." They both laughed
"Well, more reason for you to stand aside." Stiles rolled his eyes, but nodded.
Since he'd found out about his precious cargo, his innate spirit of adventure had weakened, leaving room to the same fears he had as a child when his mother was ill.
"I'm gonna looking for my dad... he doesn't know yet." Stiles said pointing at his bump.
"You didn't tell your dad? How long do you know?" Lydia asked.
"Two months...we didn't know how to drop the news. What a better opportunity, right?"
Lydia and Malia rolled their eyes.
"Okay, you go to the Sheriff." Scott entered his Alpha state of mind "Lydia and Malia to Jackson rescue. Theo is on his way to the hospital and me and you, Derek, are going to the school."
"Just give us a minute, Scott" Derek asked
"I'll wait outside."
Left alone, the two lovers hugged and kissed.
"Watch out for papa, pup, and say hi to Granpa for me" Derek knelt in front of the baby bump.
Stiles caressed his dark hair, smiling. He loved that man every day more.
"Be careful, please babe. I love you"
"I love you too. Go, now, Scott is waiting for you." They shared a last kiss before they parted.
Arrived at the police station, Stiles could see that every part of Beacon Hills had been hit by current events. The station was almost empty, but fortunately his dad was there, in his office, with Deputy Parrish.
"Hi, dad" Stiles said knocking on the half open door.
"S-stiles, what-what are you doing here?"
"Beacon Hills needed us, well maybe more Derek." He giggled
The Sheriff stood up and hugged his son, tight.
"Parrish, can you g-"
"Of course. I'll be at my desk. Welcome back, Stiles, even if I wish you come home in a better moment" Jordan gave him a pat on the shoulder and left.
"How are you, son?" The Sheriff looked at him from head to toe.
"Dad, I... I need to tell you something"
"Wha- Has something happened?"
"No. Well, yes, but nothing bad... per se"
"Stiles Stilinski, speak up!"
"It's not that easy, dad. I don't want you to have an heart attack"
"I'm already having one" he said, sitting down on the small couch.
Stiles sat next to him, took a deep breath and said:
"Derek and I are going to have a baby"
"What? A- a baby? How?"
"How... well, funny story: werewolves can knock up their mates... even if they're male."
All the colours disappeared from the Sheriff face.
"Dad? Dad, are you okay?" Stiles asked concerned.
"I..."
"I'll get you some water." Stiles stood up and exited in the lobby to fill a glass full of fresh water.
"Everything alright, Stiles?" Parrish asked
"Yes... just a shocking news, he needs water" he replayed entering the office again.
"Here you are, dad. Drink in small sips"
"Are you practicing yet?" The Sheriff asked, regained the voice.
"What?" Stiles asked confused
"Being a parent. You know, the small sips thing."
"I... Are you okay with this?"
"I'm little, so much, shocked, but there is an actual double-faced creature out there that sows panic, inducing, apparently normal, people to be psychotic killers. What is a pregnant son in comparison?"
"Did all this supernatural break you?"
"It's a possibility." They both laughed "So how are you?"
"I'm scared and I don't think the monster has anything to do with it."
"Do you want this?" The Sheriff asked a little worried
"Yes! Yes, dad, I'm happy, I was so confused at the beginning, but then I thought that there is a little one in here, that is half me and half Derek" he touched his baby bump.
"I hope he won't be born with his eyebrows"
"I thought the same thing when I found out" Stiles laughed
"What are you afraid of?" The Sheriff asked moving a hand on Stiles' arm.
"First of all I'm worried that they wouldn't make it, to lose them before even having them. And if I'm able to bring them into the world, will I be a good parent? The only person I've ever take care of is Scott"
"It's a test bench not to underestimate" They both laughed a little "Stiles I can't tell you what's going to happen, but I can say that you are the best son a father could desire. You had suffered a lot, more than the majority of your peers, and you always stood up. You helped a lot of people, first of all me: you saved me Stiles."
Big tears were running down Stiles' cheeks. Noah hugged him tight, rocking him a little like when he was younger.
"How's Derek?"
"Ooh" Stiles laughed, wiping away the tears "He's excited and scared and hyperprotective. A little too much, sometimes, but I let myself be pampered"
A knocked on the door.
"I'm sorry to bother you, but Agent McCall is here."
"Sheriff, we need to- oh, hi Stiles, I didn't know you were back"
"My better half wanted to help"
"We need to what?" The Sheriff asked.
"The hospital, sir" Parrish replied
"Okay, let's go. Stiles-"
"I stay here"
Noah opened a drawer in his desk and pulled out a gun.
"I'm not happy to give one of this to you, so soon, but there are two of you need to defend." He placed a kiss on his son's forehead and left.
Left alone, Stiles tried to call Derek, getting no response. Same with Scott.
"Lydia?" Finally someone had answered him. "Where are you? I tried to call Derek and Scott, but they didn't answer."
"Stiles, Derek is..."
"NO!"
"He's alive, he's just petrified." Stiles' heart restarted beating "I don't know where Scott is, I just reunited with Jackson and Ethan, we're looking for-"
"Ethan?"
"He's with Jackson"
"With Jackson... like together?" Lydia made a sound of assent "I thought he'd never figure it out." Stiles giggled
"I told him the same thing"
"Lyds, please, call me as soon as something new happens. If-when Derek wakes up tells him to call me"
"Everything is going to be alright. We are the McCall pack, right?"
"We are." Stiles heard, in the background of the phone call, someone (Jackson?) calling Lydia. "Go, we'll talk soon"
When the call ended, Stiles felt a heavy silence around him, even if he was not alone in the building.
He tried to stay awake, the phone tightened into his hands, but in the last few weeks he was getting tired more easily, so he soon lost his battle with his eyelids.
He woke up when he felt something wet touching him. He opened one eyes and saw Derek's face.
"Derek!" He opened his eyes completely and jumped into his boyfriend arms.
"Hey, easy. You have more strength than me sometimes."
"How are you? Scott? The pack? My dad, have you seen him?"
"Uuh, calm down, sit down. Good boy, now to answer your thousands questions. I'm fine, everyone is fine, well except the Anuk-ite. The true alpha defeated him."
"I think we should make him the baby's godfather after this"
"I think he deserves it" They both laughed "I have another good news: Kate is dead, Chris put an end to our suffering." Stiles squeezed Derek's hand knowing what that development was important for his boyfriend "On the other side, though, Gérard and some of his loyalists escaped, but one day we'll catch them too"
"McCall pack to the rescue."
"Ye, something like that." Derek moved a strand of Stiles hair behind his ear before kissing him, caressing his cheek.
"Can I come in? Are you decent?" The Sheriff asked, opening the door a little.
"Daaaad."
"I saw things, in the last few years, that I would love not to see again."
"We're in the Sheriff's office, in a police station"
"This never stopped you"
Derek laughed under his breath.
"You supposed to be on my side, our side, in fact"
"But he has a point, though" Stiles pouted and Derek kissed the curled lips.
"After everything that happened, I took a couple day off. How about the three of us go home, we cook our favourite food and we stay together for a while?"
"I'm in." Stiles said enthusiastic while they left the office and the station "I'm hungry all the time, these days, when I'm not nauseous"
"Your mother was exactly the same and, even if it's been 20 years, I still remember what helped her with the morning sickness"
"You do?" Stiles asked with shining eyes, sitting next to his dad in the passenger seat of the Sheriff's car. Derek would have come later to rescue the Jeep. "Cause Julia, Cora's alpha, gave some herbes to use as a tea, but they don't work so well on me."
"I hope Granpa Noah's brew could help"
"You like it, your new title, don't you?"
"I cannot deny I've always hoped, one day, I'd have had grandchildren. I didn't think it'd have been this early and in this way, but now I wouldn't want it any other way."
Stiles eyes were wet.
"I love you, dad."
"I love you too, Stiles. You too, Derek. You're stuck in this family forever."
"I can't complain at all." Derek took Stiles hand, from above the seat, and kissed his back.
"Why are we stopping, dad?"
"I may have... kinda nothing at home, except for some not so nutritious foods. We need to do grocery shopping." Noah got out of the car.
"Daaaad." Stiles followed him "I only leave you for a few months and you are already running all the work that I have been carrying on for years"
"I only leave you for a few months and you come back home knocked up."
"This is a low blow! Apologize to your grandchild."
Derek followed them slower, smiling. How good to be back to Beacon Hills.
