Hello! Sorry that it took so long to update. I just now got time to update after all that's been going on this week. I have a couple hours before I have to leave for the football game, and I decided to be at least somewhat productive. I will have my phone on me the entire night, so I can try to respond to any comments. Also, this chapter gets a little weird at the end, but I really like how it came out. I hope you enjoy and  apologize for taking so long to update.

-Recap-

"Thanks, Der." Isaac says.

"You're welcome, Kid. Now let's head home before Lyrica kills us." I say, making him laugh.

(Lyrica's P.O.V.)

I walk into the house with about four grocery bags in my hands. I kick the door shut behind me, heading straight for the kitchen. I set the bags on the counter before kicking off my shoes, sighing in relief as the heels no longer dig into my feet. I begin putting the groceries away, getting it done in about a minute. I jump when I feel arms wrap around my waist. I quickly relax, however, when the familiar scent of my mate fills my senses. I rest my head back on his shoulder, meeting his gaze.

"Did you two eat?" I ask.

"Yup." He replies, not missing a beat.

"And where is Isaac now?"

"Asleep in his room. Yes, he changed, yes, he took off the brace, yes, he iced it, and yes, it is currently elevated." Derek fires back, answering all the questions that I was about to ask.

"You're a lifesaver." I sigh, leaning against him.

"I know. No come on, let's go to bed. We have to monitor the game tomorrow." He says.

"Fine." I yawn.

I try to pull away from him, so that I can walk upstairs, but he has other plans. Derek spins me around before picking me up bridal style. I'm too tired to fight it, so I just wrap my arms around his neck, letting my head fall onto his shoulder. We go up to the bedroom and quickly change before climbing into bed. I curl up against him, laying my head on his chest. He wraps his arms around me, keeping me close to him.

"I'm probably gonna go to the Hale House in the morning." Derek says.

"Why?" I ask.

"I need to go and make sure Scott and Stiles didn't do anything to Laura's body. I saw Scott sniffing around yesterday."

"Literally sniffing around?" I ask, my eyelids drooping.

"Yes, literally sniffing around." He laughs. "Go to sleep. You're too tired."

"You're not wrong." I mutter before passing out.

-The Next Day-

(Isaac's P.O.V.)

I woke up before Mom today. Derek was gone when I woke up, so I went downstairs, got a bowl of cereal, and sat down in front of the living room T.V., watching whatever was on. I hear soft footsteps coming down the stairs, meaning that Lyrica is up. She walks up behind me and kisses the side of my head.

"Morning, Sweetie." She tiredly says.

"Morning, Mum." I say, my eyes not leaving the television in front of me.

"Are you watching Spongebob?" She asks with a small laugh.

"Don't judge. It's an awesome show." I laugh.
