It's fine.

[ After that - Derek doesn't know what else to say. Last thing he wants to do is push Tate, and he's Derek Fucking Hale - for all the strides he's been trying to make in being a better alpha, learning how to comfort people through his time with Stiles, everything else, he's always going to feel burned out. Talking's still hard.

But he has to do something. Tate sits, eats like he has to just to get through the day, and - Derek's been there. If that's what he has to do, it's what he has to do. Derek just... wants to make it less hard. Cautiously, he tries to be better. ]


C'mere.

[ It's not much, but - Derek raises one arm, stretches it out over the back of the seat, offers Tate a little more closeness. A hug, again, if he wants one. Wants to curl up with someone while he just - forgets the day in shitty, greasy pizza. He's not going to force it if he doesn't. Derek's good at giving hugs, but he's still so fucking rusty. ]
