Lobby at Stiles' Dorm | Wednesday Afternoon

[robinonadderall]

Stiles' sophomore year was trucking along at a fast pace but he was still feeling the beginnings of some student fatigue. He was tired of having to read textbooks and writing essays. The fact that he knew he had two more years of this plus grad school didn't help anything. His mopey texts to Derek had progressively gotten mopier to the point where Derek actually agreed to interrupt Stiles' studying and visit in the middle of the week.

His roommate was upstairs which was why Stiles was waiting in the lobby, impatiently keeping an eye on the door for Derek.

[For the guy!]

"I am stressed," he admitted. "This semester is tougher than the last one."

[justlurkinghere]

"When's your next class?"

[robinonadderall]

"I'm done for the rest of today," Stiles said. "I tried to load my mornings up."

So he could spend afternoons in the library.

Derek tugged on the hem of Stiles' shirt lightly. "C'mon. Let's get you food that's not from a cafeteria or microwave."

[robinonadderall]

"And then I need a bed." Mostly for cuddling and napping. He was really tired, okay?

[justlurkinghere]

"And a bed," Derek agreed, putting a hand on Stiles' waist to guide him along to the sensible minivan he rented. "There are a few hotels I'm not blacklisted at yet."

Let's be real, he'd end up buying some property to stay in eventually and then rent it out as an investment after.

[robinonadderall]

Stiles smiled. "We'll get thrown out of every hotel in the city at this rate."

[justlurkinghere]

"Not all of them." Definitely all of them. "I'll be good tonight."

[robinonadderall]

Stiles looked like he didn't believe that. At all. "Uh huh."

[justlurkinghere]

"Do you have the energy for athletic sex?" He didn't think so!

[robinonadderall]

"Athletic sex is that what we're calling it now?" Stiles stopped in his tracks when he saw the car Derek rented. "A mini-van? Seriously?"

[justlurkinghere]

"It was all they had." Such a lie. "And what would you call it?"

[robinonadderall]

"Rough, enthusiastic, kinky sex." That was more accurate.

[justlurkinghere]

"It's not always rough or kinky." Just mostly.

[robinonadderall]

"And yet we've been banned from at least three hotels in this city."

[justlurkinghere]

Derek sighed like the drama queen he was. "I could just rent an apartment." And make the neighbors hate him.

[robinonadderall]

"You'd rent an apartment you'd only use like once a month?" he asked.

[justlurkinghere]

Okay, point. He wasn't that needlessly rich.

"...maybe?"

[robinonadderall]

Stiles leaned in to kiss Derek's cheek. "You're cute."

[justlurkinghere]

"I could invest in property. I already manage an apartment complex."

Honestly, he just sat in the office sometimes and collected rent.

[robinonadderall]

"Before you buy an apartment building in College Park let's just try to not get thrown out of every hotel in town first." Less paperwork that way.

[justlurkinghere]

He was going to buy something anyway. Because he was rich, Stiles.

"I can try."

Maybe they wouldn't get kicked out this time, but the future was wide open.

[robinonadderall]

"For the record I am very ashamed of this car."

[justlurkinghere]

"And you're still marrying me?"

[robinonadderall]

"Second guessing that decision," he joked.
