LF specific Sterek fic: High School/Record Store AU, popular Derek, insecure Stiles (self-harm theme)
Hi everyone! I’m looking for a specific Sterek fanfic I read a while ago but can't find anymore. It was relatively short with fast-paced development.
Here are the details I remember:
Setting: High School AU / Record Store AU. Dynamic: Derek is popular, while Stiles is an "invisible" outcast who thinks he’s worthless. Stiles has a crush on Derek. Key Plot: Stiles self-harms (cuts himself). Because of his behavior/appearance, other characters think he is physically sick. The "Reveal": Derek eventually finds out about the self-harm and helps him (Hurt/Comfort theme). Hurt/ComfortSpecificRecord Store: Stiles works at a record store. Derek comes in to buy vinyl records for his sister, Cora, and Stiles helps him choose them. The Pool Scene: There is a scene where the pack (or group of friends) goes swimming. Everyone gets in the water except Stiles, who refuses to swim because he is hiding his scars/fresh cuts under his clothes. Does anyone recognize this fic? Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!
