Summary: He can’t decide if it was worse when Derek was with Erica, when he would touch her shoulder or hip with his fingertips and the perpetual frown of his forehead would smooth out, just for a single, tender second, or now, when his hands are always empty at his sides and Stiles is starting to feel compelled to offer himself to fill them.
This was an amazing read. A very slow burn, not much dialogue but an incredible insight into the characters.
I loved the first story, I'm very much in favour of POV Derek stories (there aren't that many) because it's so interesting to read about his feelings/thoughts/intentions (or rather him discovering his feelings/thoughts/intentions). The second story is at first a bit more pack-centric while all the Derek/Stiles is deliciously ache-y and angst-y.
Overall an intriguing and emotional read, roughly 13K and still these two stories feel 'richer' and more 'in depth' than some 30K fics I've read.
