It’s mid-May when Stiles, and by extension the rest of the pack gets the news: he's been accepted to his top choice university. Classes start mid-August, there's a new student orientation week mid-June with students being allowed to move into on-campus housing after the Independence holiday.
Stiles is excited. John and Scott are excited, too. So are the rest of the pack he's told.
Derek? He's not so much excited as he's scared about what this means for his and Stiles' relationship.
The university's only three hours away, which is by far better than how far it is between Beacon Hills and where Cora's at - nearly 6,291 miles and he feels the ache of her distance every day. Derek knows that with Stiles it's going to be different. Like losing Paige all over again even if it isn't permanent and there's all sorts of ways they'll be able to keep in touch with each other.
Everything within him is yelling for Stiles to stay. Stay in Beacon Hills. Stay with him. Of course Derek doesn't let on to anyone about his fears. He smiles and congratulates Stiles like a good friend and boyfriend and promise that he'll have the best going away party Beacon Hills has ever seen.
+=+
From the time of the big announcement, to the time Stiles is off to the orientation, Derek's started to get used to the idea of Stiles going away, but not by much. Of course, it's also helped that the pack has been busy with all sorts of supernatural shenanigans that he hasn't had time to really dwell on it, but he knows the time will come when he'll have to.
Just not this minute, or even the same day. He's already ten minutes late to pick up Stiles for their date; their last one before they all drive up to the campus to help him move in.
