Love on the Run

[Sterekdrabbles challenge for 12/21/18: “ankle, leg, appear”]


“Go! Go! Go!” Finstock bellowed, and not even Scott, Stiles’s best friend for life (or so he’d thought) lingered to help him to his feet.

Sorting out the school’s strongest runners, “Leave the weak and wounded behind!” Coach roared so that soon Stiles was left alone, rubbing his hurt leg.

Then who should appear but Derek Hale, the lurker Stiles always felt somewhere near.

He took hold of Stiles’s ankle, the sharp soreness draining suddenly away.

“You have secret healing powers?” Stiles asked.

Derek helped Stiles stand. “That’s not my only secret,” Derek answered, kissing Stiles’s mouth before running away.
