An Unexpected Reading - neapeaikea - Teen Wolf (TV) [Archive of Our Own]

This is just self-indulgent nonsense to the max. AND I LOVE IT!

I had this idea a while ago, and wanted it to be part of Just A Bit Of Foreverto show how Derek is making up for being an idiot and also how they’re both taking responsibility for the well-being of their relationship. But I couldn’t get it to work naturally within that story, so decided to make it a standalone that really needs no prior knowledge of the ‘verse. (It kinda bugged me that I had to create a new series on AO3 but it is a standalone piece, not chapter 2).

Truly, I had grandiose plans of them talking about their future and being communicative about living arrangements and the like and it just got so boring that I ixnayed all that.

But I did not ixnay Derek’s complete nerdiness, nor Stiles’ floundering nerdiness and honestly, this is like romantic and sexy and you know Stiles would LOVE it.

I understand some readers might get excited it’s going someplace, and others might back out because they don’t like it, but it’s not going to that place at all. I hope everyone can keep reading and appreciate the twist! I decided to not really tag for what happens, as that would give away way too much of the fun. The title is toootally a reference, tho. I got peeved at myself that I’d already used the title Unexpectedfora different fic! Oh well.

Anywho, enjoy! Feedback is lovingly drooled on!
