Falling For You (Sterek, BoyxBoy)

Baby, it's Cold Outside

“Hey, pup, can I ask you a question?” Stiles asked as he sat down next to his pup after he tucked Alec into bed. It was one of those rare nights that Derek couldn’t make it to story time because the Alpha had to do overtime at work.

“Silly Daddy, you already did.” Alec pointed out as he absently fiddled with his little fingers as he reveled in his Daddy’s warmth.

“Well, another question then… Hmm… what do you think of Derek?” The young Omega asked as he wrapped his arm around his pup.

Alec turned towards his Daddy and titled his head in confusion, “Papa? He’s strong! He could lift heavy things.”

Stiles shook his head at that statement. Of course he knew that Derek was physically strong. Alec often watched his Papa do some weight training in Derek’s home gym. He would watch Derek in awe and cheer whenever his Papa lifted heavier. It’s quite entertaining to watch.

“Other than that, pup…” He said.

“Hmm… he makes great ‘ghetti and meatballs! And he makes funny voices during story time like Papa… and he likes bath time with me and Daddy… he takes care of Daddy and I love him!” The pup explained as he breathed in after saying so much. He grinned up at his Daddy and then snuggled into his chest, “Papa love Daddy, then I love Papa.” He murmured into his Daddy’s shirt and before Stiles could say anymore, his pup was already asleep.

The next day, Stiles was quite surprised when someone was already at the door so early in the morning. He was even more surprised at the sight of Derek, still in his suit and looking like he needed a month’s worth of rest. It was pretty obvious that he came here straight from work and Stiles couldn’t help but feel sad about his Alpha overworking himself to the point of no sleep.

“Baby, come inside.” Stiles automatically took Derek’s briefcase and tugged him inside the apartment. He guided Derek to sit on one of the kitchen stools before placing the briefcase on the other chair. He quickly warmed a glass of milk for his Alpha and let him drink it before asking, “What the hell were you thinking coming straight here instead of sleeping at your apartment?”

The Alpha lowered his head and grumbled an incoherent answer that made Stiles glare harder and smacked him on his arm, “I can’t hear you, Der.”

Derek scowled and said, “I missed story time.”

And there it was, as clear as day. Derek was guilty because he couldn’t make it on time last night and for some reason, it only made Stiles’ heart do backflips and his stomach was practically filled with butterflies. It was so obvious that even though his work was important, he still wanted to make some time for Alec and that says something. It just made Stiles fall for him more.

“Aw… baby…” Stiles couldn’t help but coo at his Alpha before sitting on his lap and kissing the man’s forehead, nose, cheeks and then down to his lips.

“I promised Alec that I would be the one to read him a story last night.” Derek muttered as he buried his nose into the crook of his Omega’s neck, breathing in every inch of him and marking him.

Stiles giggled slightly at the contact but reveled in the attention he was getting from Derek, “He’s not mad, Derek.”

“Really?” Derek suddenly unlatched himself from Stiles’ neck and looked up to stare into those whiskey-colored eyes that he loves so much.

“Yes, he’s not mad. I already explained to him. Besides, he’d be glad to know that you came here right after work.” Stiles said as he placed a quick kiss on the man’s stubbly cheek, “I also think that you need some rest. You look exhausted.” He added as he stood up and led the man to his room.

It was still quite early and Alec doesn’t really wake up until ten in the morning on weekends. It also meant that Stiles would be able to join Derek for a couple of hours more.

Alec woke up around ten o’clock and noticed that his Daddy wasn’t in the kitchen. He quickly padded to his Daddy’s room and to his surprise, he saw his Daddy still asleep with Papa wrapped around him. His smile widened and quietly tried to get into the snugglefest in his Daddy’s bed.

Derek woke up and opened his arms so that Alec could join in and said, “Hey, pup…”

“Hi, Papa… wanna cuddle…” Alec said as he buried his face into his Papa’s chest and then he felt another arm around him, it was his Daddy and he was smiling.

“Hmm… hey, snuggle-pup…” Stiles said he kissed his pup’s cheek.

“Daddy!” Alec squealed in delight. Stiles and Derek wrapped their arms around each other so that Alec was cocooned between their chests.

“Hey, Der?” Stiles suddenly spoke.

Derek opened his eyes and he was met with whiskey-colored ones, “What’s wrong?” He asked, his voice still rough from sleep.

“I want to come home to you too.”
