Isabel woke up to the sound of horns of the cars honking which was kind of new to her because their old house was surrounded by nature. She went downstairs to the kitchen. Zac gave her a tour around the house the night before already so she knows where to go. Surprised to see Zac there, she greeted him. "Good morning, Zac." said Isabel. "Good morning. I made breakfast. I hope you like eggs." Zac greeted back. "Actually, I'm allergic to eggs." said Isabel. "Oh, I'm sorry, here I also made bacon." said Zac, giving her the plate. "Thanks, I love bacon." said Isabel. She ate breakfast, put on her cheerleader uniform and she and Zac went to school at the same time.

"Well, well. A new love team isn't it?" teased Scarlett as she catched up with the two of them as he got off the car. "Whatever Scarlett." smiled Isabel embarassingly. "And speaking of which, Zac, how did you know about Scarlett anyway?" asked Isabel since she never introduced the two of them but Zac seemed to know who Isabel's best friend was because he knew who to tell about Isabel's previous condition. "Are you kidding me? You and Scarlett are the most popular kids in school. Don't tell me you don't know." said Zac shockingly. "Well, obviously she never knew it. But now that even they guys know that we're very popular, I guess we really are so cool." said Scarlett, smiling.

Scarlett and Isabel went to Spanish class while Zac went to French class.

"The weather's not so nice today." said Isabel, staring out the window as rain poured down. "Yeah. I hope classes get suspended." Scarlett replied. "Yeah." said Isabel hopefully. Wishing that at least one person would remember. Scarlett, her best friend, didn't remember anything special that day at all.

She waited for the day to pass. She didn't do much the next few subjects. She ate lunch, went to MFCC then training after. Nothing was new. Zac waited for her to take a quick shower and they both went home.

"Need a hand with that?" offered Zac as Isabel took a heavy backpack from the car. "Thanks." she sighed as she handed Zac the bag and took out her small bag where she put her personal stuff. Zac didn't seem to have a hard time at all in carrying the bag.

"Hey. What's up? You seem in such a bad mood today." said Zac as she went down the stairs and sat on the couch. "Nothing. Just, tired." she sighed as she took off her ponytail and ruffled her hair. "Hey. I got something to cheer you up." said Zac. Isabel simply lied down on the sofa, closed eyes and hands over her face, showing her annoyance. "Happy birthday to you!" Zac sang, holding a chocolate cake with a number 16 candle in the middle. "Oh my gosh! How did you know?" squealed Isabel. "Thank you, Zac! But seriously how did you know?" smiled Isabel. "Like I said, you're one of the most popular kids in school." he replied smiling. "Aww. I love you so much!" she said as she kissed him softly in the lips. It was interrupted by the doorbell. "I'll get it." said Isabel.

She opened the door and got shocked with who was standing at the door. It was Damon. She quickly tried to close the door again but then Damon banged his hand on the door so Isabel would open again. "What are you doing here. How did you know where Zac lives?" she said sternly. "I asked Scarlett when I ran into her near your school." explained Damon. "How the hell did you do that. I told her not to tell anyone." Isabel raised any eyebrow. "Okay fine, I compelled her." admitted Damon. "But Isabel I-"

"Just get the point already, will you?"

"Okay, okay. I came here, to greet my daughter a happy birthday."

Isabel felt a pang of happiness. Her dad, whom she never thought she would see again, remembered that it's her birthday, and tried to find out where she now lived. "Who are you talking about? Who's your daughter? Do you even have one?" said Isabel sternly, not trying to show her happiness because she wanted Damon to learn his lesson. Like a mother teaching a child.

"Listen, Isabel. I'm really sorry about what happened. I promise it would never happen again. I know it was a huge mistake and I know that it was really stupid. But please, I can't afford to lose you. I almost lost you once, Isabel. I'm not going to let that happen again. I don't want to lose my daughter forever. I know, you can't just forgive me that easily. But please, think about it." Damon begged, teary eyed, then left.

"Who was that?" asked Zac as he went to the door, wondering why Isabel was taking too long. "Oh, no one. He got the wrong address." she excused, closed the door then went to her room.

Zac stared at her as she went upstairs and he went back to the kitchen.

Isabel took out her framed picture of her and Damon when she graduated grade school. She touched Damon's head and started weeping silently. Was I being too hard on him? Maybe I should give him another chance. Isabel thought. "Isabel? Come, let's eat the cake before I eat it all." Zac joked as he knocked on Isabel's door and went back to the kitchen. "In a minute!" she called.

"Come on, you better eat it. I'm getting really tempted to eat it already." he joked as Isabel arrived. "Oh Zac. Whatever shall I do when I don't get to eat cake on my birthday?" she said sarcastically in an English accent. "I never knew you could do that kind of accent." he said shockingly. "There are a lot of things you don't know." she replied jokingly.

Isabel helped herself with the cake while Zac just watched her eat. "Okay that's it. Have some." Isabel finally blurted. "I don't want to. It's your birthday anyway." he replied bluntly, as if he was expecting her to say that. "Why not? I can't have you staring at me all the time while I'm eating like a pig." she nagged on. "Okay, first of all, I'm not staring at you, second, you don't eat like a pig." he defended. "Whatever." she rolled her eyes sarcastically and ate again. "OW!" she yelled. "I bit something hard-" she took out the object from her mouth. "Oh my gosh." she stared at it. "Zac, what the hell is this?" she asked, totally confused.

"That's right. It's a 20-karat gold, diamond ring." he said with a big grin on his face. "Oh my gosh, please no. You can't be. You can't propose to me." she replied instantly. "No, it's not that yet." he sighed.

"I want you to officialy be my, you know, my girlfriend. I gave you a ring because I want this to be really official as in, it isn't going to be a secret to anyone. Even-" he sighed. "Even your dad." he sighed again. "Oh my gosh. You're kidding me right? Zac this is totally for three year olds who play with Barbie dolls." she said sternly as she gave the ring to Zac. "Oh. Well, that means, that means you're not in with the idea are you?" he said, disappointed. "No. That means it's not going to be easy. I have to think about it, Zac. I can't just approve to this for someone who I've known for, what, five days? Sorry, Zac. Not right now, I've got a lot of thinking to do." she explained, then went to her room again.

Zac felt broken hearted. He felt devastated. The only positive thing he can think about is that he still has a fifty percent chance of saying yes.

Isabel, thought of Damon again. Should I give him another chance? She thought. She decided to give Damon another chance. So she decided to visit him at her home. Her real home.

AT DAMON'S HOUSE

God! I hope she forgives me. I can't lose her, I just can't. Damon thought to himself. He unlocked the drawer where he kept his letter to Isabel and re-read it. As Damon was reading it, he heard something from the garden. He went there instantly, leaving the letter wide open in the bed.

Isabel arrived at the exact same time. She knocked on the door. But no one answered. She took the keys from under the carpet and entered. "Dad?" she called out as she went through the dim lit hallways. "Dad, it's me, Isabel. Are you here?" she called out again. She decided to look at their room, he might be there.

"Who's there?" Damon called out as he was scanning through the garden. He saw the movement again and this time, the vase holding the flowers fell and broke. He rushed over to where it fell and looked behind the bushes to find a cat. "Ugh! Filthy animals." he said as he shooed the cat away.

"Dad are you in-" she stopped at the sight of the letter and read it. Her eyes widened as she finished it off. She was shocked. Emma? I have a twin sister? But that can't be! Oh my gosh! She thought to herself. "Isabel? What are you-" Damon said as he entered the room and stopped when he saw Isabel holding the letter with a pale face.

"Isabel, I can explain-" he paused when Isabel came running to him, then hugged him. "Dad. I'm so sorry. I didn't know. I didn't know you had to go through so much too. You had to let one of your kids go. I'm so sorry, I never knew." she apologized. "Oh, Isabel. It's okay, I'm so sorry." he said, teary-eyed, so happy that Isabel came back to him.

Òkay guys, I'm going to end the story here. If you want to hear more, please review, and I will write a secquel to this, but it's going to be more of Zac and Isabel's story already. There's only going to be a few parts with Damon in it. Thanks!
