The breakup with his first real girlfriend had been kind of rough on Stiles initially, but he's had time to move on and, now that he's not wrapped up in the Dread Doctors, he's sort of in a weird place. It's finally hitting him that he's on his own and admittedly, he kind of misses the companionship. Malia was a little...unconventional in some senses, but it was still nice to have someone to spoon with — even if he had to be the little spoon — and he'd be lying if he said he didn't miss the other...benefits of being in a relationship.
Nothing drives it home more, though, than noticing that there's a ton of cool stuff to do to keep their minds off the oncoming storm, but just in case he'd forgotten how painfully single he is again, the catch is that all the cool stuff is only good deals in pairs and Stiles has nobody to go with.
So, okay, maybe he's sulking a little bit. ...a lot... He's sulking a lot, just kind of hanging off on his own and trying not to look like he's feeling the way he's feeling. The question is way more welcome than she probably realizes and Stiles smiles. "Hey...yeah, sounds good. Did, uh...you have anything specific in mind, or...?" he prompts curiously.
