It's the first time he's really thought of it, actually. The first time the fact that Derek is an alpha- trying to protect these kids- when he's been alone since he was a kid himself. And six years isn't that long in the grand scheme of things but at the same time, it's so long, and he's been alone so long and only recently had to bury his sister.
Scott has to wonder what she was like, how she must have been, that Derek isn't focused only on himself... like Scott'd thought he was. The idea that Derek wasn't interested in leaving them alone was a comforting one.]
Yeah. I.. guess you're right.
[There's hesitance in his speech; there's so much he'd like to say, to ask, but he isn't sure if now is the time.]
