He had broken into Stiles' house before, but he hadn't been preoccupied then with the connection that demanded they stay close together. It made sense for him to sneak in unseen through Stiles' window, while Stiles let himself in through the front. Stiles' age, and his connection to the local law enforcement via his sheriff father could cause some very uncomfortable problems if someone were to see the adult Hale kissing the breath out of him in the front yard. And, really, once he had started, it had taken every ounce of his willpower to stop.

It took him a minute to get the latch to the window to open, and then he slid inside and stripped off his jacket and his shoes. Stiles' scent was everywhere, permeating the air, the bed, the curtains. He breathed in deep through his nose, and waited, listening to Stiles move through the house.

Stiles felt...whole. He'd been so hopeless this past month, drowning in apathy and unsure of how to fix whatever was wrong with him. But with Derek, it felt...okay. Like that missing piece had come back, or that it would come back. That it would get better.

He unlocked the door, lips still tingling from that last kiss, smile stretching across his face. That was definitely new. In his rational mind, Stiles recognized that this was probably wrong - it was definitely illegal, but...but it just felt so right. And he didn't have the motivation to stop.

So Stiles locked the door behind him and bounded up the stairs, opening his door. He smiled shyly at Derek, locking that behind him too - just in case his dad came home. "Sorry it's, uh...a bit of a mess."
