"You know, I hear that an awful lot," Stiles jokes, "it's a wonder I haven't developed a complex." He does know that she's mostly joking, though, as are more people who say it than those who aren't. In this case, though, it feels merited. He was dumb. He looks apologetically back at her when she points out that she's been actively trying not to think about the thing he just brought attention to: he's got to leave again sooner than later.

Frowning slightly, he reaches up with one hand to hold her face. "I'm sorry. No, but you're right. I just...you know, have to remember that I need to carve out time for Stiles once in a while. I wasn't really doing that last semester and that's why I sort of fell off the face of the planet. I'll have to learn to budget my time better so that I have time to breathe and then reaching out to keep in touch will be second nature, not something that I forget to do entirely."

He pauses. "...you've always been good at that. Time management..." He's pointing it out for a reason but he's not going to come right out and ask her to help him get his shit together because that feels like a little too much. But the implication is clearly there; Sawyer knows him well enough to know that.
