Moriah and Isaac sat in her bedroom floor and talked for what seemed like hours. They talked about each other's past, their flaws, their favorite foods and how they like to spend their free time. Isaac actually laughed at Moriah's awful jokes about their Chemistry 101 teacher. He even stuck his tongue out at her at some point. Moriah knew it was odd to notice those things, but seeing him smile and laugh and just be a teenager was a 'once in a blue moon' sort of thing.
"Hey!" Moriah exclaimed standing up,"Want some mac n' cheese and hot dogs? I'll go start making them if you'd like."
"What an odd combination.." Isaac said reaching out for Moriah's hand for help up.
Isaac sat on Moriah's kitchen counter as Moriah cooked mac n' cheese and hotdogs. He watched her long golden-brown hair move from side to side as she slid across the kitchen in her Grinch socks. She played Fleetwood Mac and danced across the kitchen tiles, grabbing his hand and guiding him along every dance move. Isaac gave up on dancing and sat back onto the counter top. He watched the way she blew her bangs out of her face and how she bit her bottom lip when she avoided burning her finger on the stove. She moved so peacefully, she reminded him of his mom. Then Isaac shuttered. He felt someone. Heard someone. Not someone, something. Moriah heard Isaac's breath hitch from behind her and quickly spun to see him tensed up and staring into space.
"Isaac?" she whispered walking closer to him. She placed her delicate hand on his knee and tried to get his attention. He didn't respond. "Isaac Lahey!" she exclaimed with a smile, making him shutter again. "Are you okay, silly boy?" she whispered, moving her bangs behind her ear. He quickly turned his face away from her, feeling his insides going crazy. "I-I have to go.." he stuttered, hopping off the kitchen counter and walking off. Isaac knew that Moriah couldn't find out about his secret. That would mess up everything. He could already feel his eyes changing colors and his nails growing longer. "Where in the world are you going, Isaac? Please don't go back to your house yet, your Dad is probably still pretty heated." she stammered, walking closer to him and lightly placing her hand on his forearm. Isaac quickly turned away,"Don't touch me." Moriah stepped back in disbelief,"Did I do something wrong.. Do you not like the music? I'm sorry, I'll fix it." He snapped back around to her,"Leave me alone! Don't touch me, don't pay attention to me at school. I'm fine, just because you helped me out of a freezer dosen't make you a hero, Moriah!"
Moriah started to cry as Isaac left,"You don't mean that, Isaac.. I know you better than that.." Isaac stopped and thought about turning around and apologizing, but he knew what Derek would do. He can't hurt Moriah. Hiding his tears, Isaac walked inside of his house and into his room. He slammed the door, threw books and chairs and screamed before he slid down his wall, crying. Moriah could not find out that he's a werewolf, she'd get hurt. Isaac traced the wooden floor boards and cried until he fell asleep.
