Hey there! So I'm having a hard time sleeping tonight and I haven't had a lot of time to read any fic lately. So, do you have any 15-30k words fics for me? I really ones where Derek goes away for a while buy stays in touch with Stiles and they just kinda grow into their relationship. Thanks!
Aww sweetheart, I am so sorry. I was asleep when you sent this! I hope you eventually got to sleep. I suffer from insomnia, I know how much it sucks *snuggles*
Hmm, I don’t actually have any fic recs like that coming to mind at the moment. (If anyone does have a fic like that, feel free to reply to this because replies are back, yes they are).
Erm, let me see about 15-30k recs though. @dontgobrienmyheart just sent me some really good ones that look amazing (I’d actually go check their page out)
He’s carefully balancing the sandwiches and the two biggest tupperware containers he could find that both had functioning lids when the front door opens and he almost drops everything right there in front of the stupid fountain.
If that’s Derek Hale, he’s definitely not a mountain man.

When Derek goes deaf, he finds himself going to Stiles for help. Stiles does.
Talk Geeky to Me by stilesanderek (minxxx)
Derek and Stiles are the most typical combo of nerd plus geek two teenage boys could be; and as stereotypical as they could ever get, they're each other's only friend. That usually doesn't bother Stiles much, Derek is the best best friend he could ever hope to have, but sometimes when he thinks about his fate of possibly not having his first kiss until college, he starts wishing he had a few more friends--or at least more people who were a bit more interested in him other than when they need to copy his notes.
In a fit of curiosity about how kissing feels like, Stiles proposes Derek that they each be the other's first kiss--strictly platonic, of course. But afterwards, Stiles can't stop noticing how hot Derek is, can't stop thinking about kissing and touching him.
The five times Derek and Stiles "fake" kiss and one time they take things further.
But, Doctor! by stilinskisparkles
“We had to splint a girl’s leg in a ditch,” Scott says excitedly.
“Bro, you sound way too happy about that,” Stiles complains, opening up his bag and pulling out a Twinkie.
Derek removes it from his hand silently and replaces it with an apple. Stiles scowls at him for a second then bites into it, regardless. Derek sits back and lets the group discuss the merits of dramatic lifesaving feats for winning over the ladies. Scott is convinced it’ll help impress Allison; Isaac thinks Scott’s a loser. Stiles—
Stiles is falling asleep on Derek’s shoulder.
Love Comes in Spurts by talktowater
Stiles has always had sort of a hero worship thing going on with Scott's step-brother Derek so moving into a house with him freshman year was basically fulfilling a childhood fantasy. Discovering how Derek was putting himself through college, well that was a whole other fantasy that Stiles didn't even know he had.
I Might Be A Fool by prettylittlementirosa
The thing about Stiles, though, is that for him, turned on and angry are not mutually exclusive feelings. He may be painfully hard but that doesn’t mean he’s not also ready to strangle Derek for having the audacity to act like this is something that’s happening to him, not something that is almost entirely his fault. So when Derek let’s out what must be his hundredth long-suffering sigh, Stiles snaps.
(or the one that was supposed to be a GRΣΣK AU but is mostly just a study in the gratuitous and inconsistent use of punctuation)
Actual Puppy Derek Hale by tylerfucklin (zimothy)
Derek didn't know what was worse: the hunters, being trapped as a wolf, being hit by a car, or the fact that he had somehow become some kid's pet dog for the unforeseeable future.
