A dog at his feet; a stray that kept following him home until Derek finally caved and took her in. Stiles named her Princess Leia and to Derekās never-ending frustration, taught her so she only answers to her full name. Having to yell āPrincess Leiaā in the park makes Derek want to punch Stiles most days but itās kind of worth it to see the way Stiles drops to the ground every time in a fit of laughter.Ā
Opening his phone to take black-mail photos of Stiles drooling but stopping short, getting a fond look on his face when he sees Stiles through the camera lens, because thatās his husband talking in his sleep about evil panda empires and Derek canāt help but feel anything but warm and soft. Leaning down, he plants a kiss on Stilesā shoulder.Ā
The neighbours getting an early start to their day. Derek can hear them argue about cat food as they walk to their car through the open window of their bedroom, grinning to himself because he knew the neighbours were cat people. Stiles owes him ten bucks and an hour of silence this morning while he finishes his book. He could finish it now, but thereād be no fun in that. Especially because challenging Stiles to be silent usually leads to Stiles kissing him softly and looking smug becauseĀ ātechnically I didnāt make a sound Derekā.
Stiles rolling over in his sleep and wrapping a possessive arm around Derekās legs and mumbling happily, making Derekās stomach flutter even though itās been nearly ten years since they met. Five since Stiles told him he loved him. Three since Derek asked him to move in. One since they saidĀ āI doā.
I just love how in English you say āgreat minds think alikeā, which is a completely positive thing since youāre kinda praising yourself, but in German you go like āzwei Dumme, ein Gedankeā = ātwo fools, one thoughtāĀ
German is beautiful, isnāt it
Kind of reminds me when my french teacher explained us the french idiomĀ āLāespoir fait vivreā (Hope makes us live) and he asked me how Germans say it and I was likeĀ āHope dies lastā and his legit answer was:
āDepression turns you into a series of nouns, without the adjectives and without the verbs. You donāt remember where you misplaced your descriptions, your actions ⦠You become: bed, shower, socks, coffee, keys, obligations.āā A Series of Nouns
