So it was
morganoconner's birthday recently and for the first time ever, I attempted to write a ficlet in a greeting card. I just about managed it without too much overthinking and continuous editing, a few scribbled-out words aside, and I even still like what I came up with. And yay, she does too :) So glad you liked the card and the ficlet, darling. Always pleased to make you smile so <3
And here it is for everybody else's reading pleasure :)
Love Is Yellow
Teen Wolf, G, Stiles/Derek
"It's just a cake, Derek."
Derek continued glaring at the gift, his nostrils twitching. Okay, so Stiles definitely had a problem because he was finding Derek's nostrils adorable.
"Why is it yellow?"
Stiles' grin inflated. "Oh, you know, a sour flavor for a sour..."
Derek pounced immediately, felling them both. The next thing Stiles knew, his mouth was full of frosting. Derek looked smugly triumphant and any complaints Stiles had about the ruined cake ceased when Derek began licking at his frosted lips. Wow, okay, Stiles was clearly a genius, this was gonna be a gift that kept on giving, to both of them.
Derek's smile softened a notch against Stiles' cheek and the licks became lemon-flavored kisses.
