Isaac drags me out of class, into the lacrosse field. He sits me down and kisses me. The breeze whips back my hair and the bleacher scratches and burns against my back. Isaac smiles and nuzzles his nose against mine. I have no idea where my back pack went, I probably dropped in on the way out here.
Isaac smiles and takes my hand, so happy. His blue eyes are looking at my hand as I'm looking at his curly hair. I finally ask,
"Where'd you go?" It sounds like a soulful question, like he was mentally distant, but I meant it as if where he moved. He looks out at the field, and then back to my hand. He stops smiling, and swallows. He then looks at me, but I can't bring my eyes to him. He replies,
"Places. I just wanted to get away." It sort of bothered me he didn't give a specific place, but I understand. He asks,
"So, what's been going on here?" He smiles and kisses me again, lightly, quickly. I smile and look back at the school, hearing the bell ring. I answer,
"A lot." he smiles and then brings out tangled mess of hands up to his lips, kissing it. He then lowly says,
"Well, how about you tell me tonight?" I look at him puzzled, confused. I still smile, though. Our noses are inches apart, and I ask,
"What's tonight?" He then smiles mischieviously, and then looks at the school.
"We should get back." He helps me up, and I find my backpack, and we walk hand in hand back to the school. As soon as I see Liam, I feel guilty, and Liam's eyes burn into Isaac's and I's hands, yet I don't let go. Does Liam remember?
~~~
I see Allison and Scott are happily back together, and I almost go over to Scott to tell him about Hayden when I remember, he doesn't remember me. none of them do, but when Paige and Stiles rush up to me and Isaac, I second guess that.
"You and Isaac are back together!" Paige exclaims, and hugs me. Stiles hugs Isaac, and I'm confused,
"How do you-" Paige shakes her head while smiling, knowing what I was going to say,
"After Isaac, Allison and Aidan came back, we've remembered. We remembered it all." I look at her, wide eyed, cautious,
"You know it was Hayden, right?" Paige nods her head and then shakes it,
"While you and Isaac were, uh...catching up, she paid us a visit." I make an "Oh" sounds and Paige nods. Isaac squeezes my hand and butts in,
"I'm confused. Who's Hayden?" I look at him and say,
"I'll explain later, right now, I need to talk to Scott and the others." Isaac looks confused, and I finally let go of his hand, rushing over to the clump of people re-welcoming Allison and Aidan. Lydia hugs Aidan, tears in her eyes. Allison and Scott are kissing and Hugging. I pull Scott over and whisper,
"We need to talk."

"So, what your telling me is, your brother got bitten by a werewolf, you have supernatural powers, you went all void and crazy, and then died. And then you somehow came back to life, only to find out your friend is void, and she made you forget everyone?"
I nod, stuffing a handful of popcorn in my mouth, laughing at how ridiculous it sounds. Isaac laughs, too, taking a sip of his vanilla root beer. Our legs dangle off my roof top and as we sit there with popcorn and soda, catching up on all that's been lost. After a few more details thrown at him, Isaac asks,
"May I ask how you came back to life?" I gulp, looking at my popcorn. Isaac looks at me but
I can't bring my eyes to him. I roll my lips in and reply,
"Um, let's just say I met someone." Isaac nods, as if he knew this was coming, and I add, "Are you mad?" Isaac smiles and he replies,
"no, I knew you'd find someone who'd treat you better than me." It's a sweet statement, but I laugh,
"Please, that girl Hayden? The new void? Liam liked her while he liked me." Isaac looks confused and says,
"I'm sorry." I shrug and say,
"Hayden isn't my favorite, either. But, hey, she brought you back so, I guess she's not too bad. Well, besides the fact she's void now." Isaac looks confused, and then replies,
"What? She didn't bring me back. I came here on my own." I look at him puzzled, but then lay my head on his shoulder,
"Well, I'm glad you're back." When Hayden told me she called in someone else, I thought it was Isaac. But it's not. So, Who was it?
