Pickup Line - 3rd (&last) Chapter posted
Finally finished reposting my Sterek fanfiction "Pickup line".
The 3rd chapter is now online on AO3:
“You know, there’s really only one thing I want to change about you.”
Stiles grinned as he leaned against the bar, eyes trained on Derek, who drew two ales for a girl, tapping her fingers on the counter-top next to Stiles.
“Oh, really?” Derek asked, without averting his eyes from the foam building up on top of the glass. “And what would that be?” He handed the two beers to the girl and rang her up.
Out of the corner of his eyes he could see Stiles’ grin turn wider, “Your last name,” the boy finally delivered his punchline and the girl next to him rolled her eyes so hard Derek feared they might never return to their original position. “You can’t be serious...” she muttered and shook her head in what was clearly second hand embarrassment.
Derek just gave Stiles an amused smile and handed the girl her change. Instead of just taking her drinks and leave, however, the girl reached over the counter and squeezed Derek’s forearm. “I’m sorry. It must be annoying to have random people hit on you like that.”
Derek frowned and stared at where the girl’s hand was still lingering on his arm. When he looked up again he saw Stiles glare at the girl, a muscle in his jaw ticking angrily, and the fury in the boy’s eyes made a warmth spread in his chest.
He pulled the girl’s hand from his arm and placed it roughly back on the counter-top. “Thanks god he’s not random people then,” he commented brusquely and watched as the girl let out an outraged huff, grabbed her beers and disappeared to the back of the bar.
A smug smile spread on Stiles’ face and he leaned further over the counter as necessary to hand Derek his money.
“Was that just you defending my honor?” the boy asked teasingly, and Derek threw a slice of lemon at him, which Stiles caught with his mouth. (Because of course it was only times like these that the boy wasn’t a mess of flailing limbs.)
“And now you’re even providing for me? You’re such an alpha male...” he fake-swooned as he clutched his hand dramatically against his chest.
Derek snorted a laugh and shoved a Goose Island towards the boy. “Just shut up and go back to your booth.”
