Both Broken } Isaac Lahey x OC

• DOMINO •

It's a well known myth that when your soulmate dies, you die shortly after. This usually occurs when old, retired couples die in a short proximity of each other, because they've spent their whole life together and can't go on without them. People use the term 'died of a heartbreak' to describe the occurrence.

Isaac wished he could die, but he was cursed with the ability to heal.

A month after Marley died, everything became too much to handle. Everyone constantly checked on Isaac, rightfully, which lowered his self-esteem. He felt like he was too much of a burden on people. Especially when Melissa's bills got bigger. He knew it was his fault because he lived with them and all of the medical bills. With only two months left of school, Isaac left Beacon Hills. The pain was unbearable.

He packed his bags and gathered all of the money he could. Since his parents and brother had all died, Isaac had enough money to travel. He needed to leave, see the world, fill the gaping hole in his heart where Marley had once been.

The first place he went was Italy. He lived their for eleven months. He bought a cheep apartment it Verona where he worked as a cleaner and engineer. He would go around his apartment block cleaning peoples rooms, and would travel around the city fixing whatever money could buy. Isaac became known to the Italian people, they knew little about him. They would invite him to celebrations, and the festivals they would have weekly. When asked why Isaac moved to Italy, he replied with 'It's where my other half is.'

Isaac took a week off his work when he had enough money to travel around Italy. He spent a night in each city, walking through the towns and watching the beauty of each day. Every city he went to, he bought a painting.

...
She wanted to run away to Spain or Italy and paint every corner of it from every different angle.
...

The last place Isaac moved to was Spain, Murcia. There, he worked at a bar, cleaning down tables and washing the dishes. He spent every night walking through the towns, watching the lights fell down bellow. There was a beach nearby. It wasn't exactly what Marley always wanted to visit, but Isaac knew that she would love it.

...
"What's on your bucket list?"

Marley thought for a moment. "I want to go to and watch the sunset on a beach in Santa Fe, maybe sleep on the beach."
...

Isaac sat on the beach every night. The sand and cold breeze would never be a problem as he would look out to the sea and watch the sunset. Orange and pink would sweep the sky, reminding Isaac of how Marley was swept his heart. He would sit there for hours, not caring about sleep as he knew Marley was with him. She always was.

She always had been.

"Oh my god," Stiles said, looking down at the boy tied up, taped mouthed, and thrown in the bath. Scott stood beside him, panic ridden over his face.

"I know," Scott said. "I didn't mean to bite him?"

"Wait what? You bit him?" Stiles asked. He just thought that Scott had kidnapped the boy for a reason to be later discussed. But he had bitten him.

"Yeah."

Stiles grabbed Scott's arm and pulled him out of the bathroom, the boy shaking his head with fear. As soon as they were a hearing distance away. Stiles began to speak.

"You bit Liam?!" Stiles repeated.

"I didn't mean to! It was just after we took him to the hospital after lacrosse," Scott defended.
