Derek wasn't completely clear on how things turned out the way they did. He'd assumed that, with the way things were, Stiles was going to be Scott's emissary considering they were best friends and stuck together the way they did. And Deaton was meant to be his as he had been for his family in the past.
But, he wasn't complaining about the way things had flipped, though he suspected it had a lot more to do with the vet than he was willing to admit. Deaton was better about communicating with Scott than he was with anyone else, so it worked out in the end.
For the most part, at least. In truth, Derek got along with Stiles more than he did with Deaton. And the two of them were in a better place than they had been the year before, so spending time around one another wasn't headache inducing anymore.
That didn't mean Derek was used to texts that reminded him to run any potentially stupid plans by Stiles before rushing into things. Or ones that had questions about coming to the loft. He still replied and told Stiles that he could, but he had no idea what to expect from the phrase 'I need to show you something.'
