[Sterekdrabbles challenge for 02/06/19: “fog, gun, deserve”]

On AO3.

On mornings like these the first thought in Derek’s head was what had he done to deserve this.

Stiles, already out of bed, stood at the window looking out on a foggy, sunless morning. Turning around to see Derek watching him, his expression brightened instantly.

“Derek! We’ve got the day off and it’s a beautiful one! Let’s spend it doing fun stuff!”

Finger-guns blazing, onto the bed he dove, snuggling against his husband.

“And why don’t we start it off with a shower together, hmm?”

Whatever Derek had done to deserve this, he was glad about it, glad beyond words.

Roscoe jolted down a dirt road, headlight beams the only illumination until a flare of light appeared in the distance.

“Are you going to tell me where we’re going?” Stiles asked, voice strained.

They reached a clump of trees where the strange light shone, soft, lavender-tinged.

“This is a fairy band indebted to the Hale pack,” Derek explained. “They’re doing me a favor.”

Feeling suddenly terrified, Stiles gasped, “What kind of favor?”

After receiving an acorn from a tiny purple orb, Derek cracked it open, revealing a golden ring within.

“Stiles Stilinski, will you marry me?”
