"I finally found you."

Kaciart

hes about to pass out in Stiles's store

i was feeling like

That cliche 'true mate' situation

like the separation has been HELL for Derek

maybe Stiles didnt even know

He left after a fight with Scott

I kind of imagine anyone who walks in

They see an illusion of Stiles' making

When he has the hood up you see an elderly man working behind the counter

And theres a spell that makes regular humans forget why they came in

Like, you have to be looking for something magical to be allowed to stay in the store

Otherwise you feel like you didnt mean to come in

it looks totally different to a human vrs anyone supernatural

maybe humans like hunters would need some kind of talisman to come in

most of the supernatural have never seen Stiles' face

They assume its an elderly mage

So when Derek comes in Stiles' heart starts pounding but he's like

Its fine, he'll turn around and go soon

but no

"I finally found you."

Imagine him explaining to Stiles WHY

That Stiles is his true mate

Stiles says 'but, you dont love me?'

'Not yet, but I could'

And its so twisted for Stiles

Because its a bit like 'Does Derek only love him because of this True Mate BS

or does he actually?

Lots of miscommunication until Derek explains that it would always have happened

Theyre perfect for eachother

But Derek had been blind in his anger and grief

Theres no doubt in his mind, he just needed to let himself open up

But when Stiles had left it was like he tore Derek apart

And he reassures Stiles that he doesnt blame him, he understands why

And maybe there had been some feeling for Stiles too but he didnt understand it

Like a longing and ache in his chest

Which he was mostly chalking up to the way in which he left but its mysteriously vanished now Derek is here

Derek just shifted and ran

When he realised Stiles was gone and what was happening

He'd only heard stories of this

IMAGINE

the domestic bfs working together in the shop

and you just know

for the ult cliche

Scott would need something from the store at some point
