Chapter 2

"You overreacted."

"What? No, I didn't! Mary, you're supposed to side with me and tell me I was right in this."

"Well, I don't agree with you so...no, no support from me. Steve, this is exactly what you used to do with me and Claudia. Hell, it's a miracle Claudia even married Noah. Speaking of Noah, have you called him and asked him what he's got to say?"

"No, of course not! He trusted me to take care of Stiles and watch out for him."

"If this guy is an old friend, Noah might know about him. He might approve."

"You didn't see what I saw, okay? No way would he approve."

"What you saw? Steve, you saw two people who were very into each other, having fun in Hawaii. I figured you'd be used to extremely public PDA."

"You do realize that the P in PDA stands for public right?"

Steve could practically hear her eye-roll. "Stiles isn't a little kid, Steve. And ask yourself if you'd be having this sort of reaction if Stiles was dating a woman."

"I don't have double standards, Mary." Steve defended himself. "I would be just upset and protective of Stiles if he were with an older woman."

"Right. Well...good luck. You're gonna need it."

"She thinks you overreacted?" Danny asked with an incredulous look.

Steve gave him a look that said 'Thank you!', and added some hand movements to match, as they worked together to make dinner. "She pointed out that Stiles isn't a kid anymore."

"So what? Grace and Charlie can be well into their 50's and I'll still be very critical of their partners." Danny said.

"She also asked if I called Noah and asked what he thinks of it," Steve commented.

"And you haven't?" At the shake of his head, Danny also asked, "Why haven't you?"

"Because. Stiles is in my charge and I have to protect him. What the hell is Noah gonna think if I tell him I let Stiles be taken advantage of by that guy?"

"Still, you gotta call him and tell him, Steve. You can't keep this from him. Whatever he thinks, if he finds out from someone else you'll have hell to pay."

Steve sighed deeply. "Yeah. Yeah...I know you're right. But I'll put it off as long as I can. I can't do it right now."

"Where is Stiles right now?" Danny asked as he placed the protein into the oven.

"Up in his room," Steve commented.

There was a silence as they continued to work on their own stations. They both slowly came to a stop before they shared a look. Their instincts flared and told them what had happened. AS they bolted up the stairs and into Stiles's room they hoped they were wrong...but they weren't. The room was empty, and Stiles's window was opened.

The little bugger had snuck out.

Steve cursed as he took out his phone and called Jerry so he could track Stiles's phone. A few minutes later, Steve cursed out loud.

"Where is he?" Danny asked though he could already guess.

"He's at that damn hotel," Steve muttered through gritted teeth.

Danny followed Steve as they sped off to the hotel. When they got there though, they only found Stiles's phone in the suite Derek had booked but has checked out as of half an hour ago.

Very similar to how they were sitting at the shallow part of the pool, Stiles was straddling Derek in the car he rented.

It wasn't the Camaro, but it was still a classic car that made Derek still look so damn sexy. "We should...Mmm...go...fuck...inside..."

Stiles smirked and ground his groin against Derek's, "I would love to go fuck inside..."

"Cheeky bastard," Derek commented before they made their way inside before the neighbors reported them for indecent behavior.

Stiles looked around amazed at the very nice place. "This is your place?"

"Peter's. But he never uses it, though he keeps it furnished just in case he ever stops by. You know I have my feelings about Peter which is why I went to a hotel. But since your uncle doesn't like me...but I like you very much...I decided we can use this place." He told Stiles as he pulled him close and kissed him.

"Mmm...Uncle Steve's gonna be very pissed. So you better have your very wicked way with me and have as much fun as we can."

"Oh, I plan to do just that," Derek smirked and kissed him as he picked Stiles up and carried him off to the bed.
