2.15 confession of one's feelings

MIGUEL CALAVERA HELD his daughter's hand as he waited for her to wake up in one of the rooms at beacon hills hospital

he never once took his gaze away from Isabella's sleeping figure ever since she was admitted— so when her eyes finally started to flutter open he was on the edge of his seat calling out the young girl's name "Bella? mija, come on you can do it.."

the calavera girl's eyes slowly blinked adjusting itself to the light, she furrowed her brows as she saw the bright light and white ceiling

oh lord, did i die? was the very first thought that came to her mind but after feeling a hand grasping hers and hearing the familiar deep voice of her father calling her name, she figured maybe not

"Bella, baby can you hear me?" Miguel called out gently

craning her neck to the side, Isabella saw her father hovering over her with a small smile on his face "Dad? w-what happened?"

"you did it, Bella... you defeated the nogitsune— it's finally over" he tells her and seeing the confusion on her face as she looked around he quickly reassured her "you're at the hospital, after what happened your friends brought you here—"

at the mention of her friends she suddenly sat up causing Miguel to put a comforting hand on her shoulder "Stiles! uh Scott and Lydia, Kira... how are they? are they okay? where are they?"

"hey, hey they're fine, all of them— you're all okay, Bella" He tells her gently

"not all of us..." she mumbles looking down on her hands

Miguel Calavera caresses Isabella's head, a sad knowing smile forming on his lips "She would be so proud of you, Bella"

"i just wish she was here to tell me that, herself"

"i know, i know" the calavera man whispers pulling his daughter into his arms and pressing a soft kiss on her head.

Soon after, Melissa arrives at the room smiling at the young huntress "Thank God you're finally awake" she greets

"how long was i out?" the girl asks with scrunched up brows

"almost two days but don't worry, what's important is that you're okay now" Mrs. Mccall says checking Isabella's vitals and blood pressure. After the quick check up, Melissa turns to Miguel with a smile "i'll just pass this up to her doctor and after that you can take her home"

Miguel nods thankfully as Melissa tells him it's no problem and just as she was about to leave the girl's hospital room she turns to her "oh and you have a visitor, Bella... do you want me to send him in?"

"him?" she questions

Melissa exits the room and as she did, the young huntress was surprised to see Isaac Lahey, standing there with his hands buried in his jacket pocket— sensing that the two might want to talk privately, Miguel excused himself and headed to see Isabella's doctor to check her out

"hey.." the werewolf greeted walking further into the room

Isabella gave a small smile as the boy stood beside her bed "hi, so.. what brings you here?" she asks as he shrugs "can't a concerned friend visit his injured friend?" he says making the girl chuckle as she shook her head "i appreciate it, Isaac thank you but i'm fine"

"yeah i uh... i also sort of have another reason why i came here to see you" he tells her carefully

she raises her brows "is everything okay?"

"yeah no everything is fine, i just came here to say goodbye" Isabella lifted her head turning towards the teen wolf "you're leaving?"

Isaac nods, a tight lip smile placed on his face "me and uh Chris are going to france... he had some business there and he offered me to come with, i mean i don't wanna leave you guys behind and i don't want you all to think that i'm just abandoning you all of a sudden—"
