Lahey, Be Mine

Chapter 23

My emotions and excitement was taking over. 

"Hi Ara. Are you okay?" He mumbled through the phone; I could still feel the pain in his voice, yet his voice released happiness at the same time. I told Isaac I was fine, and that Scott and Stiles was with me. Isaac told me that Melissa is on her lunch break right now so she's dropping him back to their place.

"How are you feeling?" I asked him. I decided to put him on speaker phone, so Scott and Stiles could still hear. 

"I'm okay I guess. I mean getting severely attacked by a pack of alpha wolves definitely has its share of pain but I should be fine soon. I just have a lot of bandages over my skin because of slash marks but they'll heal faster than normal," he chuckled. I missed his chuckle. The way it would be so soft but have this twist on it that was so intriguing to me. 

"I'm just so happy to have you back in my life Isaac," I sighed and I looked at Scott and Stiles smiling at me; I loook forward to being teased by them. 

"I missed you so much Ara. But I'll be okay soon. I'm at Scott's place now so can I call you later?" 

"Mhm! I'll drop by if I can. Okay, bye Isaac."

ISAAC'S P.O.V

"Hi Isaac!" She squealed from the opposite side of the phone. Oh it made me feel so much better hearing her voice again. 

"Hi Ara. Are you okay?" I asked her, cringing. My body felt uncomfortable, and I experienced some pain talking. I didn't want her to know that I felt terrible, so I tried to bring some happiness into my voice. But it's clear that Ara does that by just speaking, so there was no need to. She asked how I was feeling and I honestly told her it hurt. I mean how could it not? Being attacked by five wolves who have the most power and me being a beta, I'm surprised I made it out alive with a thread to hang onto. But hell no, I'm not mentioning that to Ara. 

"I'm just so happy to have you back in my life Isaac," she said sighing. Her voice was timid and shaking slightly; she was nervous. Nervous that we wouldn't be having this conversation. 

I told her how much I missed her. Unfortunately I had just arrived at Scott's place; my place too I guess. I told her I had to go, as I wouldn't be able to talk while getting out of the car. I mentioned I would call her later, but she said she would come and drop by if she could. Thank god. 

"Bye Isaac!"

"Bye Ara. I um... I love-"

Shit. She already hung up.

I needed her so much. This pain was almost unbearable. My whole body is covered in slash marks, and I lost a huge amount of blood being tortured. The bruises and scars were still there, and every slight move I make hurts me. But I was just so happy that Ara is okay. And the fact that she's coming later today. I wanted to sit in bed with her, my arm around her shoulders as her little head fit in the crook of my neck. I wanted to feel her touch and to intertwine my fingers with hers, and latch onto her. She made me happier, safer, and she took away pain. I don't know how but she did. Maybe it was just her heart. 

I've never felt this way about someone before. I've really fallen head over heels for her.
