"Bitty," Derek says emphatically, turning to face him. His words worry Derek, and he tilts his head as he leans in a little bit. "Of course people will want you."

Bitty is attractive and kind, with a heart more open than anyone Derek has ever met. Of course he'll find someone deserving of him, someone just as warm and caring as he is. Derek isn't sure of much, but he is sure of that.

He's been holding himself back all day, but he reaches out to grip Bitty's shoulder, smiling reassuringly. "It'll be fine, Bitty. He'd be stupid not to like you."
