Kate and Twitch had gone for a long jog, and then come home for a shower. Then Kate thought she’d lay down and check her text messages for just a moment, but crashed out on the bed, still damp and wrapped in a large towel, with the dog asleep beside her. Kate knew she wanted to check in with Stiles about how things were with Scott here now--she hadn’t been to see him yet, and… well, wanted to wait and see what Stiles wanted to do before she pursued anything further. Stiles was due back soon from wherever he was--shopping? Getting dinner? Something?--and would likely come in to find his girlfriend naked, wrapped in a towel, and out cold next to Twitch on the bed. * Stiles hadn’t gone out to anywhere particular. He mostly just needed to get out and that’s what he had done. He didn’t come back empty handed, though. He had two chocolate milkshakes in his hand when he entered their bedroom. At first, he thought he would have to text Kate to see where she was, but that was no longer a thought when he saw both Kate and Twitch on the bed. “Heeey, Twitch,” he greeted the dog who had looked up and started to wag its tail when Stiles headed over and set the drinks on the nightstand. “How long have you two been napping, huh?” he asked as he reached down to scratch behind Twitch’s ear. * Kate stirred when she heard Stiles’s voice, lifting a hand to pull the hair from her face, licking at her lips and wincing at the bright light in the room. How long had she been sleeping? Not that long… couldn’t be. But she sat up a little, realized she was only wrapped in a towel, and reached up to hold it closed around her body. “...what time is it?” She asked, as if that would solve the mystery of how long she’d been napping. “...sorry, I… must’ve fallen asleep…” * Stiles looked away from Twitch when Kate started to wake. “Oh, hey there, Sleeping Beauty,” he said in a teasing tone. “Like a little after three thirty,” he told her before pointing over to the milkshake he had gotten for her. “Got you a shake.” He grabbed his own and took a sip of it, watching as Kate sat there, trying to wake up. * "Mmmf," Kate responded, lifting her hand to continue brushing the wet hair from her face. "Twenty minutes or so?" She figured she'd been out for under half an hour. Twitch climbed up from his spot on the bed and started licking at Kate's face. When she leaned back and away, he turned his attention on Stiles. * “That’s a good amount for a nap.” He took another sip of his drink as he watched Kate and Twitch. “You must’ve been really tired or really bored since you fell asleep in only a towel.” * Kate grinned sleepily, sitting up on her arm. Her wet hair fell down and around her face, but she let it fall this time. “We went for a long jog. And then I thought I’d sit for just a minute... I don’t even know what I was looking at on my phone.” Then the sleepy grin broke into a mischievous smirk. “Is it a problem that I’m only in a towel?” * “It must have been pretty boring if you can’t remember what you were looking at,” he teased. “Nope, not a problem, “ he replied with a smirk of his own. He set his drink down on the nightstand and then moved to sit down next to her on the bed. “I think you should always wear a towel and nothing else.” * “Probably.” Kate couldn’t help it if so many things on her phone were stupid boring. She scooted over just a little to make room for him on the bed beside her, while Twitch jumped down onto the floor to go get a drink of water from his bowl. “Is that so?” She asked, grinning playfully. “I might get some weird looks at Starbucks.” * “You should find more exciting things to watch,” he told her, glancing over at Twitch when he decided to get a drink of water. “Yep!” he said as he turned his attention back to Kate, placing his hand on her upper thigh. “Yeah, probably. You’ll just have to go through the drive thru from now on.” * “More exciting things, eh?” She grinned softly, leaning in closer to him. It’d grown cold for her, with her wet hair and snoozing in nothing but a sheet. His body was radiating warmth, even though he was fully clothed. She gravitated toward it like a moth to a flame. “You’ll have to start sending me more exciting things to view.” So close now she could feel his breath against her skin, she smirked softly. “I can just imagine the towel slipping. Giving the poor high schooler working the drive-through window a show.” * “Uh huh then you wouldn’t pass out when you don’t mean to,” he told her as he watched her move in closer to him. Once she was close enough he wrapped an arm around her and held her close. “Oh, you mean like this?” he asked as he grabbed the edge of the towel and pulled it on it. “Oops.” * “Mmm.” Being in Stiles’s arms was pretty much the best thing ever. Kate would legit never complain about having Stiles pull her up against him, embracing her close. The tug on the towel, exposing some of her naked body, made Kate give a gentle chuckle. “Exactly like that.” She lifted a hand to the side of his face, then drew him in to steal a kiss from his lips. * “I doubt they would mind. I know I don’t.” When she kissed him, he kissed her back. When she pulled away, he didn’t really let her. Instead, he pulled back in for another kiss. “Actually, I think the towel fashion be for my eyes only.” He gave her thigh a nice little smack, grinning after he did it. * The kiss was nice. And then Kate pulled back--but Stiles tugged her in again. He was strong, and Kate didn’t mind being manhandled by him. She grinned when he pulled back to speak, then gave a little yelp at the smack to her thigh.--it was mostly playful, though a little surprised. “Hmmm.. I think we can make that happen. Though, it’s not fair that I’m only in a towel, and you’ve still got everything on. Down to the shoes.” * “Oh, is that a hint?” He kicked off his shoes and then took off his socks, tossing them on the floor. “There, my feet are naked.” He knew what she wanted, but he wasn’t going to easily just give her want she wanted. It was more fun to tease. * “...what about the rest of you?” Kate asked, then started pouting--putting out her lower lip in a playful way. “We could have so much more fun if the rest of you followed suit.” She lifted a hand and tugged the towel down even further, exposing a bit more skin. * He looked down and then back at Kate. “Oooh, you want me to take off more,” he said, acting as if he didn’t know what she really wanted. He took off his plaid long sleeve shirt and tossed that. He smirked at her before taking off his t-shirt and then tossing that too. “Is this better?” * Kate laughed. “You’re such a jerk,” she teased, but her eyes twinkled when he pulled his shirt off, and she lifted a hand to run her fingertips against his chest. “Now we’re getting somewhere,” she teased. “You’re not going to do a dance for me, are you?” …she didn’t actually want a dance, but it was fun to tease. * He glanced down at her finger and then shook his head. “Nope, there will be no dancing from me today.” He did look up and over at her. “I’m enough for you, right?” It was something that had been on his mind and he needed to just ask it now and get it over with. * They’d been teasing and joking, and then Stiles asked something that Kate hadn’t been expecting. She blinked and lifted her eyes to his face. “Of course,” she responded without having to think about it. But the question had caught her off guard. “Why would you even think to ask that?” Did she do something to make him worry he wasn’t enough? * “I think Scott coming back and Derek spilling everything brought up some stuff. And I might have seen you call other people hot. So, my mind has kind of been all over the place lately and thinking the worst things it could probably imagine.” He tried not to think that way, but sometimes his mind liked to take things a little too far no matter how true or untrue something could be. * Kate sat up on the bed, lifting the towel to wrap around herself. This seemed like the kind of conversation best had without her boobs hanging out. “Oh, Stiles,” she said, reaching for his hand. “I’m sorry about Scott. I miss him, too.” She paused for just a moment. “Who’d I call hot?” * He grabbed a hold of her hand. “I wish he could remember his time with us. I feel like it might be weird now. And I don’t want that. I feel like I might forget too and like do something and freak him out. What about you?” He shrugged. “I don't know. I don’t remember. It was a while ago.” * Kate threaded her fingers through his and squeezed his hand. “It might be weird now. But he’s your best friend. Even if he doesn’t remember what we all had.” She also worried that it was going to be weird. Still, she’d always been closer with Stiles than she’d been with Scott, even in their three-way relationship. “I… I don’t know. I’m just so glad that I still have you.” She lifted his hand in hers and pressed a kiss against his thumb. “...I mean, there are a lot of hot people out there. I might say things, but… well, I belong to you. You know that, right?” * “I know. My dad pretty much said the same. We’re best friends. We’ve been through worse. We’ll make it through this too.” Which, yeah, his dad was probably right. Just right now it was going to be weird. “I’m not going anywhere. Unless the portal does dumb shit again.” But he wouldn’t leave Kate alone on purpose. He knew that much. “Deep down, yeah, I know. I’m just being dumb here lately. It’ll pass.” * “I’m not planning on going anywhere, either.” Kate really hoped that they all stayed put, right where they were. She wasn’t sure she could handle losing another lover. Especially now that she was head over heels in love with him. It was stronger and more real than anything she’d felt before. “Hey. It’s okay. I just want you to know.” She leaned in and pressed a kiss to his shoulder. “I’ll try to stop calling people hot online if it’ll help.” * “Thanks.” He hadn’t been sure about bringing all of this up at first, but he was glad that he finally did. The way he had been feeling lately had started to subside a bit. With some time, he was sure his mixed up feelings would be gone and things would be fine once again. “This is why I like being with you. It’s easy to talk to you.” * There was a lot to deal with. Kate didn’t make assumptions or judgments. They’d both been with Scott, and he was gone now. And a new Scott was around. It made everything weird. Kate didn’t want to do or say anything that might make Stiles feel like she wasn’t his. Take that completely off the table. “It’s easy to talk to you, too,” she said softly, leaning in closer to him. “Everything with you is easy.” And then she stole a kiss. * “Let’s keep it that way.” Easy was good. He liked how easy it had been between them and he wanted it to continue to be like that. A smile crossed his lips after her little kiss. “I think I’m done being serious now.” He had nothing else serious on his mind at the moment. He’d very much like to get back to what they were doing before he turned things from fun and goofy to serious. * Kate had a feeling they would. It wasn’t like things were about to get complicated or difficult--neither of them was the type for that sort of thing. She broke into a grin, too. “Oh, good.” Then she kissed him again. And again. And again. |
