Derek bites back on the urge to growl in frustration. He'd thought that, maybe, this time he was getting it right, but he should have known better. It helps at least a little, though, that Stiles is making excuses rather than outright refusing. That he hasn't laughed in Derek's face for daring to claim him. And it's not like it isn't a valid excuse, even if Derek knows for a fact that Stiles rarely, if ever, pays any attention when his father grounds him.
He's preparing for a round of orders and threats, about sleeping and eating and making Scott get his ass over there (and he'll be taking care of that conversation on his own, dammit) when Stiles stops him before he even gets started with that offer. He's silent for a moment, brows still furrowed, as he processes it.
"You should rest, not do schoolwork," he finally answers. He should get back to the others, but they know where he is and how to reach him, and they're together and safe for now... and Stiles is Pack too, and needs to be taken care of. "If I can't tell Erica you're getting better and have it not be a lie when I get back she's going to try and go for my throat."
