Isabelle was enjoying a well-deserved sleep, her dreams were filled with pleasant things like a land that was made some candy and having the ability to fly before a loud banging ran through her ears. It took her a few moments to realize that the banging was actually the sound of someone knocking on her door was not in fact something from her dreams, but coming from reality. She opened her eyes, hastily sitting up in bed as she began to scramble out from under her covers and towards the front door.
When she opened the door, there stood a somewhat injured Soldier Boy, who roughly pushed past her and into the safety of her home. Isabelle locked the door behind him as she walked towards him, wrapping her arm around his waist and wrapped one of his arms around her shoulders, using her body to support his. She navigated towards the couch and carefully laid him down,
"What happened? Who did this to you?" she asked as she examined his body for any major wounds, to which there were none besides some rips in his suit and some bruising on the side of his face.
"Myself," Soldier Boy decided to spare her of knowing what really went down back in the Vought Tower, "Things were dealt with."
"So Homelander is dead?" Isabelle questioned as she grabbed a pillow and placed it under his head making sure she was comfy.
"Not exactly, there was a change of plans, so no one died." he informed her as he closed his eyes, allowing the adrenaline to slowly leave his body.
Isabelle nodded her head as she sat down by his feet, "Okay.. that is good.." She paused as she than asked, "So why did you come back here? I mean.. I don't know if Butcher and Hughie need you now that things with Homelander are settled and-"
Soldier Boy interrupted her, "Because I need you."
Isabelle's eyebrow raised in shock, she slowly turned her head and looked over at him. Her face than morphed into one of smugness.
"America's best superhero, Soldier Boy, needs me?" She asked as she let out a small laugh.
"N-No, not Soldier Boy." He sat up a bit so he could see her face, "I, Benjamin, need you."
Isabelle stayed silent, "W-What?"
"Soldier Boy is done, after today Soldier Boy will be something of the past and Benjamin would be part of the present." he tried to desperately explain to her as he slid closer to her.
Isabelle slowly nodded her head as she looked down at her lap, comprehending in his words as best as she could. Soldier Boy stared at her as he was becoming antsy from her lack of a response,
"Just please don't turn your back on me, not Benjamin." he pleaded with her.
Isabelle shook her head softly, "I won't do that to you, maybe to Soldier Boy, but not you." than hastily added, "You better not start acting like a asshole because I swear, I won't hesitate to kick your as-"
