[lupusalpha]

[He pushes Stiles a bit, and after they've walked for about ten minutes, he starts talking]

So what happened?

[studmuffin]

What happened is you made me get out of bed at ass crack o'clock.

[ He crosses his arms over his chest. ]

[lupusalpha]

You smell like you drowned in Jack Daniels.

[studmuffin]

[ Stiles falters in his step, Derek's word choice, the post on the network. It makes his stomach twist. ]

So I got drunk, so what?

[lupusalpha]

Do you want Scott to know, and tell his mom?

[studmuffin]

That I was drunk? She picked me up, Derek. I think she knows already.

[lupusalpha]

You could have called me, you know.

[Keep walking, prisoner 24601]

[studmuffin]

[ He didn't even steal any bread. ]

I didn't want to call anyone. I just wanted to forget for a little while.

[lupusalpha]

I noticed.

[A cranky wolf noise]

[studmuffin]

Are you pissed at me?

[ Twisting slightly to look at him. ]

[lupusalpha]

[There's quiet from the back]

You didn't have to be alone, Stiles.

[studmuffin]

I'm used to being alone, that's the problem.

[ It's been them for the whole year he's been stuck here. And he's glad, he is. But it reminds him too much of the one person he's missing. And how quickly their lives are about to go to shit back home. ]

I'm tired of feeling this way, Derek.

[lupusalpha]

Who do you think you're talking to?

[He's really not good with this. He's terrible with emotions like this.]

I don't exactly go around offering this to everyone.

[studmuffin]

[ He runs two hands through his hair, his shoulders dropping. ]

I know, I do. I'm just ... there's this big weird disconnect now, right? The lives we have here and ... home.

[lupusalpha]

Apparently.

[studmuffin]

[ He makes a noise in the back of his throat. ]

Where are we going?

[lupusalpha]

Catch the sunrise.

[studmuffin]

[ He snorts. ]

That's kind of ... are you secretly super spiritual?

[lupusalpha]

[He looks confused, but it's hard to see in the tunnel]

No. Keep walking.

[studmuffin]

[ Walking. ]

Are you doing okay? Scott, Scott's mom, it must be weird, right?

[lupusalpha]

[He makes a small sound]

It's strange no matter how it goes.

[studmuffin]

[ He misses his dad so much it hurts but he'd never wish for him here. ]

Yeah.

[lupusalpha]

Come on. There's a way out to your right.

[studmuffin]

[ Off to his right. ]

Next time, wake me up with coffee okay?

[lupusalpha]

No point.

[It opens up to a cave, and the cave is right near a cliff overlooking the water.]
