Stiles is quicker than Derek, seeming to move with the water rather
than against it and he takes his last few steps at almost a run,
practically jumping into Derek’s already open arms. It’s a similar scene
to their parting, Derek fully clothed where Stiles is naked and wet,
both utterly uncaring about their differing states of undress. Stiles’
skin is cold under Derek’s hands, but his breath is warm on Derek’s neck
and his heartbeat is the sweetest melody in Derek’s ears. He doesn’t
know how long they just stand there, breathing each other in, but
eventually the questions become too pressing, so Derek pulls back
slightly, just enough to look Stiles in the face and asks:“What are you doing here?”

1. Glazed and Confused by wishingonalightningbolt
or, In Which Love is More Important than Donuts.
Stiles is a forensic tech with the San Diego FBI. He thinks he’s been fairly lucky, since he’s never had his life threatened, sustained few injuries, and only has to work with his least favorite agent every once in a while.
And then all of that changes.
2. (Insert Cheesy Title Here) by Vellenox
Derek is a socially awkward, struggling writer who works in his parent’s grilled cheese restaurant, barely able to cope with the fact that this is his boring, simple life. A single blog changes all of that. A single post on thegirlwhoknewtoomuch.wp.com about how divine the Hale Melt’s grilled cheese sandwiches are ensures that the store is bombarded with an enormous amount of new customers. They hire on Stiles Stilinski to help out – he’s loud and he’s spastic and he gets along with Laura eerily too well – but somehow an unlikely friendship forms between Derek and Stiles. With Stiles’s help Derek learns to overcome his confidence issues and from that point on Derek’s life finally starts to come together.
3. Can’t Take The Heat? by Ilovesocks_24
“Hi, I’m Stiles, and what I have for you today is…”
“Stop, just stop.” Grumpy Eyebrows interrupted. “That is honestly the worst looking Pasta Primavera I have ever seen. I don’t even want to eat it, it looks so bad.”
Stiles narrowed his eyes. No one insulted his creamy bacon carbonara without even trying it. And no one insulted his creamy bacon carbonara after they tried it either.
“It’s actually a Creamy Bacon Carbonara, asshole,” Stiles snapped. “And for the record, it’s supposed to look like that.”
Or the one where Stiles is a new sous chef at Full Moon Steakhouse and Derek is the Gordon Ramsay of all head chefs. So of course they fall in love.
4. Historically Inaccurate by asocialfauxpas
Stiles is surprisingly okay with all the weird shit that goes on at Beacon City Historic Ghost Town – ghost lights, howling, pianos playing on their own. Having to work closely with the surly blacksmith is another matter.
5. Care and Feeding by otter
Derek desperately needs to fire the newest volunteer at the kitten nursery. Mostly because the guy keeps saying things.
6. Be the Life of the Party by Mimiminaj
His father’s face suddenly turned serious again.
“He is twenty four though, son. I don’t care if his smile shits rainbows and his laugh births puppies. You are his employee. It would be bad to cross those lines during your first job. Or ever.”
Stiles’ face hit the table.
“I hate my life,” he moaned.
Scott laughed cheerfully. “Don’t worry sheriff! It sounds to me like the entire cinema staff feels the same. Stiles doesn’t stand a chance with Derek!”
“Scratch that,” Stiles mumbled into the wood. “I hate you two more.”
Or – Stiles starts working at the movie theater. His boss is Derek.
7. We’ll Still Have Summer by allyasavedtheday
He’s too busy waxing poetic in his own head about the surly – dreamy – dude holding the sign for the hotel to notice Scott already making his way over. He pauses halfway when he realises Stiles isn’t following him, turning around and eyeing Stiles curiously, “Dude, come on, the guy’s waiting.”
Stiles snaps himself into action and pushes his cart carrying his suitcases over to where Scott’s introducing himself to Stiles’ future husband.
“-And this is Stiles,” Scott is saying just as Stiles arrives next to him.
“I’m Derek,” the guy replies gruffly, folding the sign up and tucking it under his arm. “I’ll be taking you back to the hotel.”
8. Stay, Maybe by toraten
Stiles meets Derek Hale on a business trip and immediately gets attached to the man’s surly, overworked attitude. Luckily – surprisingly – the attraction is mutual. Once they get back home Stiles figures that it’s at least worth a shot, right? So he asks Derek out.
In which their relationship has a deadline, and Stiles gets more and more anxious the closer that deadline comes.
9. The Office by stilinskisparkles
“Sure, I like him,” Derek scowls right at the camera, “We’re friends.” He blinks, expression suddenly going hopeful, “Why, did he say something?”
*
“I have worked at Beacon Hills Office Supplies for two and a half years,” Stiles pretends to hang himself with his tie, glances out of the conference room to where Derek is signing for a package with a suspicious look on his face. “It’s not all bad, I guess?”

Honorable Mentions
Around the Bend by lupinus, uraneia
The first time Derek catches sight of the new yoga instructor, Stiles is in the middle of showing a class how to do downward-facing dog. Derek walks into a wall.
Things don’t exactly improve from there.
Derek can’t stop staring at Stiles, the bendy new yoga instructor at his family’s gym. Stiles thinks Derek’s a repressed homophobe who hates Stiles for making him want the D. They fall in love.
Derek Hale From HR by nogitsune_lichen
“Derek? Fancy seeing you here! I was just-er, getting a new chair. I think mine has a squeaking problem so…yeah I’m just gonna take a chair and–”
The man closed the door with a soft click before holding up the Captain America sticky note with Stiles’ patented chicken scratch handwriting on it. Stiles gnawed on his lip, trying and failing to come up with some sly excuse. Instead he hung his head in defeat when Derek didn’t so much as say anything or make a move.
“Enough playing around; I dig you, and it’s your last day. Meet me in the abandoned closet at one,” Derek quoted, a hint of amusement in his tone.
Stiles sighed, “okay not the best choice of words, but it got you here didn’t it?”
“Yes it did,” Derek nodded before adding, “and I dig you too by the way.”
Color Outside the Lines
- Pairing: Stiles Stilinski / Derek Hale
- WIP – chapter 7 / 10 posted
- Story inspired by the movie Shelter (2007) and this post by @beaconhills-fanboy
Stiles isn’t unhappy. Not really. But that doesn’t mean he’s happy either. He just is. Exists. Goes through the motions, does his job, takes care of his niece and tries to hold the remnants of his fraying family together. In his world there’s no place for dreams, college or personal happiness.
Then, Cora’s brother Derek arrives back in town and slowly things start to change. Could it even be for the better, and will Stiles have the courage to color outside the carefully constructed lines of his life?

A story completely devoid of werewolves and other supernatural elements. Somewhat inspired by the movie “Shelter” (2007). The amazing movie poster is by @beaconhills-fanboy – link to original post here.

About three things Stiles is sure:
First, the people in Beacon Hills are supernaturally gorgeous and he has no idea why he was allowed in.
Second, if he hears ‘mountain lion’ one more time, he’s going to do some serious maiming.
And third, Derek Hale looks at him like he wants to eat him. And Stiles might just let him.

This was really interesting and is a solid overview of how eating is affected by ADHD. There aren’t any answers offered, but I do think that understanding is the first step to overcoming!

a Blood and Wine au for @dexterous-sinistrous (hearts of stone)
Some say we strayed from the path of virtue, and the gods sent the beast to teach us a lesson.
The guard’s body tumbled down the stairs, lifeless, as Derek panted for breath against the door. The stench of blood lingering in the air was dizzying, but he paid it little attention. Blood never affected him the way it had with Boyd for a time, never something so addicting that it was worth losing himself to it. His claws retracted as he took a moment to collect himself, his features shrinking back to human, but Derek kept his eyes shut for just a few seconds more as he pushed the door open.
And there he stood. After years, they were no longer apart. “Stiles!” Derek rushed forward, taking his face in his hands, scanning him intently for injuries — yet all he could find was the evidence of the years that passed and the reminder of how quickly humans aged. “Are… Are you hurt? If any of them…”
“You know me. I’d never let them hurt me,” Stiles smiled weakly, his voice wavering in disbelief. His accent was music to Derek’s ears as his arms curled around Derek’s waist, clutching onto him. “I just waited for you to come.”
“I… I didn’t know where to look,” Derek pulled Stiles into his arms without a second of hesitation, holding him as tightly as he could without hurting him, “They threatened to kill you… I…” The words caught in his throat and Derek pulled back to look at him, before his own shame took over and he could no longer meet his eye. “Forgive me. I failed you.”
“No, no you—” Stiles cut himself off as the Boyd and that witcher, Allison, ran into the room, a frown forming on his brow as he warily took them in.

Stiles promised himself that the werewolves didn’t smell the depression and desperation wafting off of him because they were simply distracted, not because they couldn’t care less. He told himself that he’s just good at hiding it.
Stiles was trying so damn hard.
But he’s broken so many promises to himself.
