Unbreakable➳ Lahey [book 2]

It's Not Stupid At All

It had been around a week since the night Daire's world turned upside down, yet again. On the night of the winter formal Daire lost her mother and her future of being a human. Though she could admit not much has changed, Scott and Stiles are still her best friends and her family is still avoiding her ever since she was deemed broken. But Daire knew that she was different, different from the little girl who always made sure she would never forget a kill. Different from the young huntress who swore to protect anyone in danger. 

She was no longer purely human but she was also no longer weak.

Daire looked up from her thoughts and saw the newly dug hole in the dirt of the Beacon Hills Cemetery. She had come here to hopefully figure out why she wasn't devastated about loosing her mother.  As she stared at the hole that would soon hold her mother's casket, Daire realized that she probably would never feel the full pain and loss of loosing one's mother.

Getting up from the cold ground Daire walked towards the ditch, deciding that she would say what she always wanted to tell her mother now before she chickened out. 

Once at the edge she began to speak, " Hey mom, it's me. I'm currently just talking to myself in the middle of a graveyard but I have something that I need to tell you, whether your alive or not."

 Daire took in a large gulp of air. " I won't forgive you. There is no way in hell that I can forgive what you put me and my friends through. You have caused too much pain for so many people, people I care about and people I have never met. And I cannot forgive you for that. But thank you, thank you for training me. Thank you for making my life hell, because without all that pain I had to go through I wouldn't be standing here today. You told me I was broken and useless, but I'm not. I grew stronger and I can protect those I care about. So thank you but I will never forgive you." Daire sighed feeling like a weight had been lifted off her chest.

" Talking to the dead?" A deep voice asked.

Daire turned around and saw the cute boy from her chemistry class standing behind her.

She let out a small chuckle, " I guess, I was talking more for me then for her though." Daire looked up at Isaac Lahey trying to figure out what he would say next, since it was no secret in Beacon Hills that Daire's mother was a crazy arsonist that was recently killed.

What he said surprised her though, " Do you miss her?" 

Daire's eyes widened, her shock at such an innocent question visible, " My relationship with my family is complicated." She looked up at Isaac, " And my relationship with my mother was even worse. I'm going to tell you something I have never told anyone else okay?" 

Isaac nodded his head a little confused but Daire continued, " To answer your question, no I do not miss my mother, but I will miss the hope I had of ever mending our relationship. It's kinda stupid after all that has happened the only pain I feel is the loss of hope I had." 

Daire laughed as she wiped away a stray tear that sneaked past her defenses. 

" It's not stupid at all" 

Daire looked up at the boy standing a few feet away, it was amazing how those 5 words he said could make her feel so much better.

"Thank you," She said a small smile forming on her lips. 

At that exact moment Daire got an S.O.S message from Stiles and knew she had to go help her best friend. 

"I got to go, but Isaac, Thank You" Daire squeezed his hand and smiled before running out into whatever stirred up mess her friends have gotten themselves into.
