CEO! Derek x Intern! Stiles

B: Please don’t be mad. You know how much I love that look on you. And I really don’t have the energy for-

A: Seriously?!? You’re making jokes right now, when you’re actively bleeding on my couch?!? I actually hate you.

B: That’s the look. So hot.

who let stiles online??

Derek is the Stilinski family werewolf, and he protects Stiles against someone, but because he bit/did damage, he gets taken away. Stiles breaks into the facility/garden/wooded area where he's being kept to break him out. They go on the run from the law because of it, and I think Derek had a muzzle on in wolf form, maybe a sword or needle or something in his mouth.

@niwolah found this one!

Except Derek doesn’t so much as cuddles Stiles, but bear hugs him like he’s grappling his prey when they sleep together, so Stiles always wakes up molded against Derek.

Stiles: (limb-locked with Derek’s vice-like arms and legs around him, face smushed against his chest) …derek. air?

I suspect this was meant as a visual pun because this server is rated for 733 watts, almost exactly one metric horsepower

he slips an arm around derek, dips against his warm shoulder. his eyes burn.

“you seriously have, like, the worst luck in the world.”

“i don’t know,” derek says. his head tilting, his voice soft. “it—waxes and wanes.”

“you’re such a cheeseball,” stiles says, kind of drunk on how close they're standing, and derek says, “the moon's made of cheese, isn't it?”

they see each other through some serious shit, not just because of the nature of their work but also because they work so closely together for so long. like - the death of derek's sister, the birth of his son, half a dozen romances (including the intense on-again-off-again relationship derek has with a jet-setting war correspondent), a few scary months where stiles is dealing with PTSD after witnessing a shooting, and more. years and years of late nights, intense debates, getting on each other's nerves, and making each other better at their jobs.

stiles figures out he's in love with derek by the end of their third year together. it takes derek a while longer - it takes until stiles gets a new job.

derek never thought stiles would leave. it just - never occurred to him. he knows that stiles has had other job offers before - stiles jokes about it every time a new one comes up. the rest of the staff teases him about how he'll be working on their show until he keels over. but then stiles comes in one day with a serious look on his face and gives his two-week notice. he got an offer leading a research team for a newer show - weekly instead of daily, pre-filmed instead of live - more money, better hours, more free time. everyone congratulates him, and derek mutters something vaguely encouraging and goes to sulk in his office.

stiles is gone for six months - and derek is fucking miserable the whole time - before everyone in derek's office tells him to man up and call the guy. just because they're not working together anymore doesn't mean they can't see each other. but derek is frustrated - he feels sort of betrayed. if stiles had asked, derek would've tried to get him more money - he would've done anything. but stiles didn't ask - he just fucking left.
