new york wolves } { of homecomings and future talks

[impetere]

Stiles: [and he will follow down a few minutes later, going to find his sexy woman at the griddle and slide up behind her] Smells good.

Cora: Good. Laura left extra bacon in the fridge.

Stiles: I don't think the fridge ever runs out of bacon. It just magically replenishes itself.

Cora: Mmmhmm. [and she'll go to flip the first of the sandwiches] How long are they going to be gone?

Stiles: Javi is off work until Monday.

Cora: Good. They can have a nice little mini-vacation.

Stiles: And we don't have to worry about scents and opinions and clothes.

Cora: Win-win for both of us.

Stiles: We'll just need to Febreze the place before they get back.

Cora: Sounds like a plan.

Stiles: And wipe down any surface we may mess up.

Cora: [nods] So Sunday we'll do some light cleaning.

Stiles: But that's Sunday. Today is Friday.

Cora: Which means we have plenty of no clothes time.

Stiles: Yup. Why we even have them on now I don't know.

Cora: Because spitting grease hurts, even when you have a healing factor.

Stiles: Okay, that makes sense. I don't want you burnt.

Cora: Good. [and she'll serve up the two sandwiches] And bon appetit.

Stiles: [leans in to kiss her] Thank you.

Cora: [kisses him back] So are we eating this down here or upstairs?

Stiles: We can eat them here. Be reckless.

Cora: Here it is. [and she will go to find a seat]

Stiles: [and he will go to sit across the table from her] So, do you have your eyes on any jobs yet?

Cora: Not yet, but I'm keeping an ear out. I may decide to do teaching.

Stiles: You'd be a good teacher I think.

Cora: I liked the TA'ing I did, but we'll have to see who's interested.

Stiles: You're smart, amazing, and hot. Everyone wants a smart, hot teacher in their school.

Cora: [she laughs] Glad to know I meet the base criteria.

Stiles: I may even go back to school for that.

Cora: Well, I would be able to give you lots of ... home instruction.

Stiles: Is that so?

Cora: [nods] Robotics are very complicated. You might need a lot of extra credit.

Stiles: People may talk, thinking that I'm sleeping with the teacher though. [as his foot runs along her thigh]

Cora: That would be very inappropriate.

Stiles: And I would probably get distracted in class imagining you naked.

Cora: Which would only mean you need more extra help.

Stiles: It's a vicious cycle.

Cora: Probably for the best if I wasn't your teacher.

Stiles: It would keep you from getting fired for sleeping with students.

Cora: Which would be beneficial for both of us.

Stiles: But I could do that without going back to school either.

Cora: Exactly. You already have naked Cora privileges.

Stiles: In which I'm very grateful for.

Cora: Good.

Stiles: Especially with having that access back in my bed.

Cora: If we ever consider doing long distance again, we'll be sure to remind each other how much it sucks.

Stiles: Oh, I will tell you loud and clear.

Cora: Good.

Stiles: Though I'd rather be doing other things loudly.

Cora: [she laughs] As would I.

Stiles: That so?

Cora: I rather enjoy the other things we do loudly.

Stiles: [well, he's going to stand up there, gathering her empty plate from her and putting it in the sink with his, and then lean down to kiss her]

Cora: [hums softly into the kiss as she leans into him]

Stiles: [and he is going to just pick her up and put her on the table so that it's easier on his neck]

Cora: [and she will slide her arms around his neck, hooking one leg over his hip to get him closer]

Stiles: [yup, that's an easy lure, and he will step in between her legs, his hands on her hips pulling her up against him]

Cora: [hums softly, her fingers sliding through his hair and just kissing him back eagerly]

Stiles: [and his lips will soon trail down her jaw, hands sliding up to get that shirt off her]

Cora: [doesn't exactly stop him but ...] We probably shouldn't do this here.

Stiles: We're going to clean the surfaces, remember?

Cora: Yes, but this is my sister's space. She'll know. [a beat] The couch.

Stiles: [sighs] Okay, the couch. [and he is going to pick her up and toss her over his shoulder playfully]

Cora: [there's a shriek giggle, but she doesn't fight him as they go]

Stiles: [and he is going to toss her onto the couch gently and then jump on top of her before leaning down to kiss her]

Cora: [kisses him back eagerly, pulling him in closer] Do you have a ...?

Stiles: Um.... [reaches into the couch cushions and with a 19 finds a whole strip of them] Looks like they have been waiting for you to get back home.

Cora: [she laughs] Looks like. [and they get right back to kissing again]

Stiles: [and more]

Cora: [yep, definitely a lot more]

Stiles: [and they are probably going to fall off the couch at some point trying to shift]

Cora: [yep, but that's okay the floor is probably better]

Stiles: [and when they are spent] God I love you.

Cora: I love you too.

Stiles: We're never, ever doing that again.

Cora: [her eyebrows go up] I thought you rather enjoyed that.

Stiles: Oh no, not that. I mean the whole apart thing.

Cora: Oh. Yeah, that we're never doing again.

Stiles: Though, you know we could look for a place of our own now that you're back.

Cora: You want to?

Stiles: Kinda. I mean, we don't need to worry about clothes then.

Cora: True. But I kind of want to be home a while first. I missed my family too.

Stiles: We can do that for a while. And we don't have to move far. We could stay in the same building.

Cora: Then I definitely need to get a job first.

Stiles: I've got a good paying job, so take your time and find what you really want to do.

Cora: Yeah, and we bought this place with way more money than you make.

Stiles: That's what a loan is for.

Cora: We don't need the debt, Stiles. I'm not opposed to the idea but let's make sure we can afford it first.

Stiles: [knows when to give in] Alright.

Cora: [she leans in to kiss him] I do want our own space. But I also just got back. Let's take it one day at a time, okay?

Stiles: I can do that.

Cora: Good.

Stiles: So what shall we do today?

Cora: [hums softly under her breath] We could take the dogs to the park? Show Sadie around.

Stiles: That's a good idea. They will need to get out at some point or we're going to do more cleaning than we want.

Cora: [she nods] And maybe we can get lunch at one of the places that I've missed while I've been gone.

Stiles: All doable, though it will require a full set of clothing.

Cora: Unfortunately. But I think we can manage, if we ever get off the floor.

Stiles: It's a hardship we must endure [leans up to kiss her]

Cora: [kisses him back] You want to shower first or should I?

Stiles: You use yours. I'll use the guest room one.

Cora: Okay. See you in twenty?

Stiles: Yup. See you in 20.

Cora: [and off she will go to shower and get dressed]

Stiles: [as will he, and then just putting on jeans and a t-shirt]

Cora: [she'll be down by the door, leashing up the dogs]

Stiles: [and he will grab his wallet and keys, sliding into his sneakers] Ready to go?

Cora: Yep. Let's go.

Stiles: [and to the dog park they will go]

Cora: [where Sadie will definitely hang back with her mom, but will eventually go exploring once Cora nudges her to and investigate the other dogs]

Bucky: [meanwhile he is all HELLO EVERYONE I AM HERE TO PLAY LET ME SNIFF YOUR BUTT SQUIREL!!!!!]

Sadie: [yeah, Sadie's still getting used to Bucky's exuberance and when he tries to blindside her into playing at one point she bounds back to Cora and climbs into her lap, sorry Stiles]

Stiles: [reaches over to pet Sadie] Hey, girl, it's okay. He just wants you to play with everyone.

Cora: [Sadie just leans into the pets as Cora gets in on the action too] Yeah, but she's not that fast to make new friends. She's still trying to figure out if she likes Bucky half the time.]

Stiles: She'll figure it out. Bucky can be a bit of a spaz, but he's a good dog and likes her.

Cora: Yeah, she will. She just needs to get used to all the other people and dogs around. She's used to it just being her and me.

Stiles: She takes after you, it looks like.

Cora: She always did. That's why she picked me.

Stiles: You know I worry that individually, we get kids just like us... what’s going to happen when we get around to making human kids?

Cora: That I don't think we'll be able to predict.

Stiles: Could be a hyperactive loner.

Cora: Or it could be a very friendly introvert.

Stiles: Pretty sure insanely smart. It runs on both sides.

Cora: So that's definitely a win-win.

Stiles: And completely adorable.

Cora: Obviously.

Stiles: And hopefully not get my clumsiness.

Cora: If they do, they will be able to handle a few bruises since a werewolf is pretty much a guarantee.

Stiles: Would it be? I mean, you're born, but I was bitten.

Cora: It doesn't matter. We're both wolves now, and that's what's going to be passed down to our kids.

Stiles: [nods] Good. I hoped so.

Cora: [she gives his hand a small squeeze] Were you worried about something?

Stiles: [licks his lips] The dementia.

Cora: Oh. [she shakes her head] No. They'll be fine, Stiles.

Stiles: I don't ever want our kids to have to go through that.

Cora: Neither do I.

Stiles: But to loop back around... so us and kids?

Cora: Not right now, but ... after we get married, yeah. Eventually.

Stiles: Figure out your job, where to live, all of that. And somewhere along the way when you aren't expecting it, I'll surprise you.

Cora: Surprise me with what? Are we going to elope? [because you already proposed, Stiles]

Stiles: Maybe. Or maybe just have a pop up wedding.

Cora: I don't know. I kind of feel like if Peter doesn't get to walk one of us down the aisle, he's going to be pretty upset.

Stiles: I can make sure there is an aisle.

Cora: Then we could probably make it work.

Stiles: Good. Because I would hate for him to get angry at me.

Cora: So would I. I think he thought he would get to do it with Laura, but that didn't work out the way he hoped.

Stiles: Laura kinda took everyone by surprise.

Cora: She did. But I get why she did it.

Stiles: Yeah, me too. But I do want more.

Cora: I do too. But not too much more.

Stiles: It will be small. And I wouldn't like, put it in the middle of Times Square or something like that.

Cora: Good. And all the important people will be there.

Stiles: Of course.

Cora: That's all that matters.

Stiles: No, all that matters is you and I.

Cora: For me, the other things matter too.

Stiles: I know.

Cora: It'll be good either way.

Stiles: Yup. [and Bucky will run over with a ball, tail wagging and drop it at Cora's feet]

Cora: [smiles at him before picking up the ball and chucking it back into the field for him to chase]

Bucky: [YAY BALL BALL BALL I'M GOING TO GET YOU!!!!!]

Stiles: [chuckles]

Cora: He's a good dog.

Stiles: We have two good dogs.

Cora: Two and a half if we count Barron.

Stiles: I keep forgetting Barron if half yours. I always think of him as Laura's.

Cora: Technically he's all mine. He just became the family dog after a while.

Stiles: [nods] I remember now.

Cora: I think he's happier following Tommy around anyway.

Stiles: Tommy is a lot easier to deal with than the rest of us can be.

Cora: It's true. And he's easier to look after too.

Stiles: He just smells bad sometimes.

Cora: And that's easily fixable.

Stiles: Not for a dog.

Cora: [she laughs] True.

Stiles: I'm gonna run and grab a drink quickly. Want anything?

Cora: [she shakes her head] I'm good.

Stiles: [leans in to kiss her cheek] Be right back.
