Pairing: Stiles/Danny

Author Website: The Biblioteque, AO3, but this little TW gem is only on her LiveJournal
Why this must be read:Probably 99% of the TW fic I read is Stiles/Derek, but I absolutely adore Danny. If I could clone Stiles I'd give one to Danny. That way Danny could figure out for himself if gay guys find Stiles attractive. I love Danny's growing relationship with Stiles but what I love damn near as much is the expansion of his personality and the family that the author has given Danny. His family just tickles me so!

I hope, hope hope that in the upcoming season, they'll give more of a storyline to Danny.

Danny crushes on people he shouldn’t. He figures everyone does. The awkwardness is universal. He can usually play it cool because he’s had so much practice. Usually he’d turn to Jackson to be mocked out of self-pity. Jackson’s good at reminding Danny to just be human and not set his expectations for himself too high.

Yeah, that won’t work here.

“What’s up?” Sara bursts into his room while he’s writing a paper on Manifest Destiny. “You’re doing your thing.”

“Am not.” He totally is.

“Why aren’t you over at the Stilinskis’?” She’s almost too perceptive.

“Homework.” He doesn’t look up at her. She’s a predator and he’s not going to meet her eye.

“Uh huh. It kinda hurts my feelings that you won’t tell me about your new boyfriend. You didn’t even ask me if I think he’s cute.” She pauses wanting him to look up and get trapped. He keeps his eyes on his computer screen. “He is totally cute. Even though you didn’t ask, because you’re being a asshole lately. You haven’t even said anything about my new shoes.” With this parting remark, she huffs out of the room.

His parents will have made the same assumptions. Maybe it’s good to have a built in cover story for all the stuff he can’t mention. But he hates lying to his family, even by omission and they’re all assuming assumers.

The problem is that his dad and the Sheriff are buds. Catastrophe looms.

He decides texting is the most cowardly way to broach the topic. So he picks that.

My family thinks we’re dating. I didn’t correct them. For reasons you should understand. Sorry.

His phone buzzes thirty seconds later.

U just figured that out?

Danny stares at his phone for a beat. He’s not used to being the clueless person. But he figures if he rolled with the werewolf thing, this isn’t really that big of a deal.

He goes back to his Latin Rosetta Stone tutorial.
