Derek watches Bitty with rapt attention, waiting for him to reveal what's inside. He hears Bitty's breath catch, heart stuttering a bit before it starts beating faster, and he gives him a smile.
"You mentioned how badly you wanted a pair," Derek tells him, scooting in a bit closer. "I hope they're good. I don't really know anything about skating, but I talked to the girl at the store and she recommended these."
He wants Bitty to able to do what he loves here. If he's passionate about something, if it'll make him happy, Derek wants to make sure that he can do it.
