Stiles was walking to class when he saw the only openly gay student Danny get tripped by one of the jocks. He walked up to him and knelt down in front of him. "Are you okay?"

Danny nodded "Yeah."

Stiles started to help him pick up his books he looked up when the jocks stepped up to him. "May I help you?"

Jackson smiled "Don't tell me you're a fag too."

Stiles stood up. "No I'm not but I not a dumb jock like you either."

Jackson frowned "You think you're really funny huh Stilinski."

Stiles smiled "Yeah I actually think I am." He watched Danny get up and leave. "Later moron." He said walking off.

Jackson glared at him as he walked off.

Stiles might have been small but if he had to his words could cut anyone down. He spotted Derek standing at his locker talking with another girl. He looked away and tired not to let it get to him because he knew Derek loved him.

ooo

Lunchroom

"Hey Danny." Stiles said walking up to where he was sitting.

"Why are you talking to me?" Danny asked.

Stiles shrugged "Because I want to." He sat down.

"You shouldn't sit there." Danny said looking around "They might start to think that you're gay too."

"So" Stiles said. "Nothing those asshats will bother me." He looked around and saw Derek staring at him. Shaking it off he started to eat.

"Why are you doing this Stiles?" Danny asked "You don't have to."

Stiles sighed "I'm jealous of you Danny."

Danny smiled "Because?"

"You're not afraid to be who you are." Stiles looked down "I wish I was strong enough to do something like that."

"Are you saying that you're gay?" Danny whispered.

Stiles nodded "Yeah."

"Wow." Danny sat back "I thought I was the only one."

"You're not." Stiles said "Trust me."

ooo

Later that day

Stiles was in the bathroom when Derek walked in. "Hey."

"What were you doing with him?" Derek asked walking over to him. "People are going to think that you're gay."

"But I am." Stiles said drying off his hands. "I don't see what the big deal is."

"You're going to get outed." Derek said almost yelling. "Stay away from him."

Stiles shook his head. "How could you be like that Derek? Danny doesn't have any friends and I felt bad for him. He doesn't deserve to be treated like this."

"People are already whispering." Derek said. "Do you want them to find out about you? Then they will start treating you like they treat him."

"I don't care!" Stiles yelled. "I'm not going to stop talking to him. Do you think I'm going to leave you for him or something?"

Derek sighed "I know you won't I just don't want you to get hurt."

"I have to get back to class." Stiles said walking off.

"Wait?" Derek said grabbing his arm. "Are you sure about this?"

"Derek nothing is going to happen to me." Stiles said "I'll see you later." He left the bathroom.

ooo

Stiles was walking back to his class when he bumped into Jackson. "Watch where you're going?"

"Or what?" Jackson said. "So you're dating Danny boy now?"

Stiles shook his head "I don't get it you two use to be best friends, what happened?"

"He announced to the whole school that he was gay!" Jackson yelled "And why do you care huh." He smiled "What are you a fag too?"

Before Stiles knew it he hit Jackson in the face. "Fuck you Jackson!" he yelled walking off.

Jackson was helped up by some of his friends. "Get off me!" he yelled.

ooo

Stiles was sitting in the office when Derek walked in and sat a few seats away from him. "What are you doing in here?"

Derek sighed "I heard what happened with you and Jackson."

Stiles was about to respond but the same girl Derek was talking to walked in and sat next to him so he looked away. He got up when the principle called him into his office. Halfway there he heard the girl say that she couldn't believe they got caught in the girl's bathroom. Turning to shut the door Stiles locked eyes with Derek. The last thing he saw was the guilty look on Derek's face.

ooo

Stiles ended up getting suspended. He was sitting in the passenger's side of his father's car staring out the window.

"Are you going to tell me what happened?" His father asked.

"I don't want to talk about it." Stiles said.

Mr. Stilinski sighed and pulled over. "For once can you be honest with me?"

Stiles looked over at his father. "There's this guy named Danny at school and he gets harassed sometimes. Jackson was the main one doing it and when I confronted him about it he called me a fag so I hit him." He knew what his father was going to say next so he took a deep breath and just said it. "Dad I'm gay."

Mr. Stilinshi's hands dropped from the wheel. "You can't be."

Stiles nodded "Well I am."

"Why didn't you tell me?" His father asked turning to him.

"How do you tell a father that his only son is gay?" Stiles looked down. "I lost mom already and I didn't want to lose you too."

"Stiles this doesn't change anything." His father said. "You're still my son and I love you no less because you're gay."

Stiles reached over and hugged his dad. "I love you too dad."

Stiles father pulled back. "But this doesn't change anything." He said smiling. "Because you're still grounded."

Stiles chuckled "I know."

ooo

That night

Stiles was downstairs watching TV. Even though he was grounded his dad wasn't home. He looked down when his phone rang but seeing that it was Derek he didn't answer it.

ooo

Derek sighed and tossed his phone on the bed. He knew Stiles would be mad at him for what he did. His door opened and his uncle walked in. "Hey." He said going over to his bed and sitting down.

"Hey." Peter said "I heard what happened in school today."

Derek smiled "Yeah maybe next time we should go somewhere more private."

Peter sighed I'm proud of you Derek but I'll tell you, you had me worried for a minute. I mean I actually thought that you were gay." Shaking his head he walked out of the room.

Derek sighed and laid down on his bed. He wished he could just run away with Stiles right now and never look back but he knew he couldn't. Reaching for his phone he sent his a text.

Derek: Meet me at the lake tomorrow after school, love u.
