Scott had been starting to wonder if Derek was going to be stuck like this. What if he couldn't get back to an adult? At least he seemed to trust Scott, which was something. Without that, all this would be so much more difficult. But in all honesty, the mess with Kate aside, he was just worried about Derek's wellbeing and state of mind. His mom hadn't hesitated at all in insisting Derek come stay with them. There were bunk beds in the room Isaac lived in these days, from the days when Scott and Stiles were kids and had sleepovers. He still had to break the news to Isaac that he was going to have a room mate, but everyone was doing what they could to make it easier on Derek.

"We still have to tell him, though. And you gotta admit, teenage Derek is a lot more pleasant to be around than adult Derek. I think this one actually has a sense of humour. Just for the record, Dad thought he was your boyfriend and you made the cousin story up to cover," he added, shooting his best friend a smirk across the table.
