The Perk | Monday Evening

[robinonadderall]

Stiles, luckily, had missed out on the weirdness of the weekend. It was likely for the best, seeing as catsitting Derek came with its own problems.

"Why did you have to do the cat knead thing on my neck?" Stiles complained. "It's bad enough you try to suffocate me with your fur while I'm trying to take a nap, but I think you left puncture marks, man."

If the barista thought it was weird Stiles was talking to a cat she didn't show it.

[Open!]

Because of reasons, Stiles. Because of reasons.

Derek gave an annoyed little meow, moving in a circle on the table until he found a comfortable position where he was the most in Stiles' way.

[robinonadderall]

"Oh come on!" He wasn't this annoying when he was a cat, he was sure of it. "You're gonna shed on my danish!"

[justlurkinghere]

Damn right he was gonna shed on that danish. He was also going to rub all up on it like it belonged to him.

Derek was the bitchiest cat to ever bitch.

[robinonadderall]

"Derek!" Stiles groaned and made a strangling motion with his hands out of frustration. "I wanted to eat one thing without cat fur on it. One."

This was because he tried to put adorable little clothes on you, wasn't it?

Emily had deemed it safe to wander around the island by now. Or safe in Fandom terms, seeing how you never really knew. Said wandering had lead her to the Perk.

"Hey Stiles. Hey Stiles' cat. Unless that's someone I know turned into a cat," she said as she checked the menu. You never knew.

[justlurkinghere]

It was indeed.

Derek stretched out and meowed again like he hadn't a care in the world. Which was, of course, when he turned back into a human being.

Well, werewolf being.

[robinonadderall]

"It's my boyfriend." Or fake boyfriend or whatever. It was a strange relationship. There were anniversaries involved. "He's usually human. Well no he's not but he's also usually not a cat."

"It's very complicated."

[robinonadderall]

"NAKED!" Just shout it for the whole world, Stiles. "Oh god MY EYES!"

[justlurkinghere]

Derek rolled off the table as quickly as possible, crouching down to hide his shame stop flaunting that hot bod. Eew, he had a danish stuck to his back now.

"Pants, Stiles," he growled. Not literally growled. Not yet.

[reven8e.livejournal.com]

"Oh, cool," Emily said, but then stopped. "Or not? Because he's a cat. But that's temporary, I guess." At least she hoped that was the case.

[robinonadderall]

"Aw, what?" Stiles had to at least put up a little bit of a fight even though he knew owed Derek. So yeah, he was taking off his pants quickly. "I would say this is the most traumatic instance of nudity I've seen this year but I had to put pants on naked Jackson a few months ago..."

[robinonadderall]

"God I hope so," he said. "He's somehow more of a pain in the ass as a cat. I didn't think that was possible."

[justlurkinghere]

...

Derek just gave him one of those beady eyed little stares that implied he didn't even what to know what the hell Stiles got up to in his weird social life.

[reven8e.livejournal.com]

"Cats are known for their particular knack of being a pain, though," Emily pointed out, finally deciding for a perfectly plain looking coffee. "Who is this guy anyway?" She had to cross him off now, of course.

[robinonadderall]

"It's okay, he was unconscious at the time," Stiles said, tossing his pants at Derek. "Don't think I don't see you looking, pervert barista!"

[justlurkinghere]

That didn't make it better at all!

Derek shot the barista a glare before grabbing the pants and trying to put them on. And, while he was used to tight pants, these were possibly even too tight for him. Why did you have pants that fit, Stiles! Why couldn't you pick baggy ones!

"...give me your shirt," he muttered after a few false starts.

[robinonadderall]

"Derek. He works at the bar," Stiles said. "The one where I can't drink."

[robinonadderall]

"What, why?" He needed those shirts, Derek. To protect the world from his paleness!

[reven8e.livejournal.com]

Excuse Emily while she chuckled for a moment there. The things you got the know. "He's my- well, was one of my teachers on that awful Friendship class; he's pretty cool, way to go Stiles. Now I can't help but feel a bit sorry for him going all feline."

[justlurkinghere]

"Because," Derek ground out, shoving the jeans back at him. "These pants don't fit."

Curse his overly muscular physique!

[robinonadderall]

"Ow, my self-esteem." At least he got his pants back. "Fine you can have one shirt. One."

Because he wasn't about to walk around shirtless now. Or ever. He shrugged off his outer layer of flannel and tossed it at Derek.

[robinonadderall]

"Don't be," he said. "He's an ass."

[justlurkinghere]

Which was being carefully wrapped around his waist like a sarong. This was so much worse than when Stiles turned back into a human being.

"You're cleaning up the mess you made at the house too." Don't think he was letting go of the crumbs in his freaking bed, Stiles.

[robinonadderall]

"And you're washing that shirt before you give it back." Because seriously. Derek's junk was all up in that.

[justlurkinghere]

It would just get mixed in with laundry and stolen back at some point in the future.

Derek rolled his eyes. "No, I'm going to keep it," he said sarcastically.

[robinonadderall]

"Won't be the first time you've kept something of mine," Stiles mumbled as he put his pants back on. He still felt naked without his precious flannel.

[justlurkinghere]

Deal with it, Stiles.

"You keep my things," Derek shot back.

[robinonadderall]

"You look like grunge Tarzan." Nice change of subject.

[justlurkinghere]

"Were you even born then?"

[robinonadderall]

"Do you really want to know the answer to that question?" It'd just make you feel old, Derek.

[justlurkinghere]

"No." Ugh. You're sickening, Stiles.

[robinonadderall]

"Thought so." He bit back a comment about Derek's weird thing about age because he knew where those issues came from. Even if Stiles personally thought they were ridiculous. "You owe me for all this, by the way. You were a way more annoying cat than I was."

[justlurkinghere]

"You could have dumped me on Mike," Derek replied sulkily. Which was his normal tone with Stiles, so...

[robinonadderall]

"Yeah because I'm so the type of person that ditches people," Stiles said, rolling his eyes. "Besides it was his birthday weekend; he shouldn't have to deal with your sulky cat self sleeping on his face, slowly trying to asphyxiate him."

[justlurkinghere]

"You weren't in danger of asphyxiation. Don't be so dramatic."

[robinonadderall]

"So you just wanted to cuddle then?" Stiles teased. "You're so cute, Derek."

[justlurkinghere]

"Shut up." Like that would stop him. "I'm going home."

[robinonadderall]

"You probably should, Tarzan," Stiles said. "I think the barista is about to climb over the counter and jump you."
