Chapter thirteen | sacrifice

Hope lay awake in bed at the Stilinski house, Henrik and Stiles fast asleep in the next rooms over, Kol leaving to tend to the mess that is the angered Niklaus.

Hope had been laying there for hours, even as the morning neared Hope's mind still focused on the same thing. Hope refused to believe her best friend was gone, she refused to believe that she had really lost Erica. Even in her grief, Hope felt happiness that Boyd had been rescued and Derek had been reunited with his sister.

Hope blinked away her tears as the window slid open, the curly blonde smiling sadly at her as he climbed onto the windowsill "Did you find them?"

Isaac nodded with a sigh, Hope moved the blankets patting the empty space next to her "Yeah, they're safe now."

"Are we ever really safe in Beacon Hills?" Hope mumbled as Isaac lay down next to her, Isaac gazed down at her "No, but we can try to be."

"Isaac, promise me something?" Hope questioned, Isaac frowned but nodded "Promise me you'll stay safe, i can't loose anyone else, especially you."

"I promise." Isaac replied, "Only if you promise me the same thing."

Hope leant her head on Isaac's shoulder as he continued, "You may think you're invincible, I'm not doubting that you're not, but you're just as human as anyone else. We all need someone to be there for us, we can only take so much."

"I promise." Hope whispered tiredly, slowly falling asleep.

Even for a short while, Hope's problems seemed to fade away, letting the tribrid sleep for the first time in days.

Hope leaned against the counter tiredly wrapped up in her dressing gown, watching the kettle boil as she longed for the coffee to support her through the day. Noah entered the kitchen dressed in his normal attire after his nightshift, sighing at the state of the sleep deprived and traumatised girl.

"I have to talk to you." Noah told her, Hope groaned moving to sit down at the kitchen table "What have i done?"

"Two things, actually." Noah corrected, taking her place by the counter "Number one."

"I have no idea whats happened to this kid, where his parents are or how the hell you and Stiles are now responsible for him." Noah motioned to Henrik sat with Stiles in the living room, "But he's sixteen, he needs to go to school. I know you're lying to me about what happened to him, but god help me if my trust in you fails me."

"Thank you, Noah." Hope grinned excitedly, standing up from her chair "Beacon Hills High has gained another Stilinski!"
