Unsteady [Isaac Lahey x OC]

Chapter 27

Chris, Isaac and Carter were currently in Argent's truck near the warehouse. Her head was resting on Isaac's shoulder. Argent's phone buzzed.

Carter pressed her eyebrows together, noticing the annoyed look on Argent's face, "What is it?"

"Katashi won't do the buy in person." He replied, shaking his head.

"But he's a paranoid recluse. Shouldn't you be a little less surprised?" Isaac asked looking forward.

"I was trying to remain optimistic that we wouldn't have to go to my Plan B." Chris stated.

Carter tilted her head, "Plan B?"

"And what's Plan B?" Isaac asked, not liking where this was going.

"How tall are you?" Argent asked.

"5'2 but what-" Carter started.

"I meant Isaac." Chris interrupted.

Carter raised her eyebrows mouthing the word, 'oh' as Isaac let out a light chuckle.

Chris pressed a button, the trunk lifting up in response. They walked behind the truck, Argent pulled out a large blue map.

"Katashi's office is here."

"Guys." Argent and Carter lift their heads up from the map towards her boyfriend in a suit. A very handsome suit.

Carter smiled.

"This isn't going to work. I look ridiculous. I mean I look like I just stepped out of the last period of a Catholic prep school. And there is no way that I'm going be able to remember all this. I mean, what does this even mean? 'Revolving over and under barrels'?" He said stuttering and messing around with the pieces of paper in hand.

"All you have to do is keep them talking long enough to allow us to get inside and find Katashi. He may not be there for the buy in person but he won't be far." Argent replied, trying to reassure Isaac.

Carter grabbed Isaac's hand, "You look great. Very professional."

She threw in a wink.

"I am sweating, all the way through my jacket. I didn't even know that I could sweat this much." Carter could tell Isaac was really freaking out about going into the warehouse.

She pulled Isaac towards the other side of the car, away from Chris.

"Hey Isaac, look at me." Carter put her hand gently on his cheek, bringing him to look at her gaze.

"You can do this. Okay? Go in there with confidence, I believe in you." She looked into his bright blue eyes.

"I'm going to get my head blown off by a bunch of Japanese fingerless mobsters." He scrunched his face up.

Carter placed her other hand, on his other cheek and pulled his face down towards her own. Their lips intertwine, making a connection that was believed to only be felt in fairytales. She could feel his smile against her lips as his fingers brushed her hair behind her ear.

Carter pulled away slowly, never breaking eye contact, "How do you feel now?"

Isaac smirked.

And off they go.

Carter followed Argent's lead into the back ways of the warehouse. Careful to not be detected.

As Carter was walking, a guard with a large gun had his back facing towards her. She lifted her hand, readying her magic.

"Peek-a-boo" She smiled, throwing him against the wall, knocking him unconscious. Carter used her power to slide his gun far away from his body, just incase he came too.
