Even if I managed to get a whole word out, it wouldn't sound like anything at all, just a strangled, high-pitched mess of a sound because suddenly Derek's there, coming out of his bedroom like he's just been asleep this whole time and I didn't notice.
I know that's not true, but I'm so relieved I don't know what to fucking think.
So I don't, and I do the first thing I've wanted to do since I realized he was gone: I practically run over and crash into him, giving Derek the biggest hug I can manage. It's a monster hug and I practically hurt my arms with how hard I'm squeezing, but whatever. He's a werewolf, he can take it.
And it keeps me from letting the tightness in my throat turn into actual tears.
