The Gift

Chapter 8

Isaac and I walked out of the guest room, leaving Derek and Stiles to talk more in private. We walked down the steps into the kitchen, cleaning up the dished from our dinner and putting away the leftover when Isaac suddenly spoke, "Do you think you'll ever find someone like that, Scott?"

Confused by his question I continued drying the dishes, "You mean my mate?"

Isaac blushed and stuttered, "Yeah, the person that completes you, who you want to spend your life with, your one and only."

Hearing Isaac describing a mate all I could think was that's you, Isaac, you comlete me. "Maybe, but then maybe i've already found that person." Isaac suddenly looked disappointed and I wondered what I could have said to upset him.

"You think you found your mate? So, was it Allison then?" Isaac asked grimacing at her name.

I frowned asking, "Isaac? You really think I still like Allison?"

Looking down at the floor below Isaac mumbled lowly, "I know you'll always love her, I just didn't know if you were still in love with her."

Surprised by his words I wondered just what goes through his mind. Why would he seem so upset about whether or not I still loved Allison. Could it be possible he felt the same way about me that I felt about him? No. He couldn't Isaac was straight. He didn't like me. "Isaac, do- do you like me?"

Isaac blushed looking at everything, but me. "I-I-I, well, yes, somewhat, but I mean its just like a small like, I mean i'm not like in love with you or anything." I stared at Isaac speechless, which he of course took the wrong way. "Oh God. I- I've messed up this whole friendship haven't I? I knew I shouldn't have said anything."

Isaac was full on freaking out which if I must admit was adorable. "Isaac, hey, Isaac" I called trying to get his attention to keep him from mumbling to himself. "I like you too."

Isaac briefly smiled then began to question what I had said, "What? No, you, you can't like me, Scott. You're straight, as straight as a ruler."

"Isaac, honey, rulers can bend." I said smirking at him.

"Scott, you cant-" I cut Isaac off from speaking anymore by gently pressing my lips against his in a sweet, slow kiss.

"So, do you believe me now? I just like you Isaac, only you. There isn't anyone else for me." Isaac smiled up at me I swear, I had never seen anything more beautiful.

"I like you too, Scott, so much, more than you will ever know." Isaac's words were like music to my ears.

"Trust me, I know exactly how much you like me, I feel the exact same way about you Isaac. I've never meet someone like you before."

Isaac's once bright face suddenly dimmed, "I'm nothing special, Scott, you deserve better."

Puzzled I looked at Isaac, "Isaac, you are the most amazing person i've ever meet, you're perfect. You make everything better, when i'm having one of the worst days of my life a simple smile from you could make everything better. I know you're always here for me through anything. I can come to you with any problem and you help me, you don't judge me and I seriously think I might be falling in love with you."

Tears shimmered in Isaac eyes opening his mouth to speak I leaned forward shutting him up with a kiss on the lips. We kissed slowly, slightly nibbling on his bottom lip Isaac gasped suddenly giving me entrance to his mouth, tangling our tongues together. Isaac pulled back, whispering against my lips, "I love you too, Scott."
