The next day after the pack movie night Isaac went over to talk to Alison about how he felt about her and Scott. She had known he was coming and knew why he wanted to talk. When Isaac arrived at the apartment she buzzed him in and he called the elevator. Just as the doors were closing a hand slipped in and a voice he kind of recognised said "hold the elevator for me." Isaac reached over and pushed the door open button and saw Ethan with some bags of groceries.

Ethan looked at him and said "thanks Aid and I were just out getting some stuff; Chris was nice enough to lend us his car."

Isaac then said "that's cool I was just here to see Allison to kind of talk to her about some stuff."

Ethan then said "don't worry I'm fine with it, can you hit the penthouse for me?"

Isaac pushed the button as the elevator door closed and it began to rise. A few floors before the one the Argent's were on it stopped. Isaac than said "what's going on?"

Ethan then replied "I think we're stuck between floors." He then pushed the emergency call button and tried the emergency phone which unfortunately seemed to be out of order as there was no answer. Isaac started panicking and Ethan realised it immediately as it was something he was feeling too.

Ethan put his bags down and turned to Isaac and said "I take it you're not big on enclosed spaces."

Isaac then said "yeah but you knew that already when you locked me and Allison in the janitors closet."

Ethan then said "no we didn't, and you're not the only one in this elevator who doesn't like them either," Ethan then sat down on the floor and said to Isaac "sit down and try and relax a bit ok because your making me more nervous."

Isaac looked at him and said "um no offence but you being in here with me makes me kind of nervous."

Ethan than said "there are three reason why I won't do anything to you one Scott would probably try and kill me or let Stiles shove mistletoe down my throat, two there's a security camera in the elevator, and the third Chris Argent isn't likely to take to kindly to me attacking a member of Scott' pack."

Isaac then said "ok I guess that makes sense" as he sat down on the floor he was still a little nervous. He then said "so why are you afraid of enclosed spaces?"

Ethan then said "in our last pack before Deucalion's they thought it was funny to lock me in a closet with no light on and a line of mountain ash at the door."

Isaac then said "I take it you couldn't get out and since Aiden couldn't break the mountain ah it must have been torture for the two of you."

Ethan nodded as his phone rang, he looked at it and saw it was Aiden he answered it and said "I'm stuck in the Elevator with Isaac of all people and the phones dead can you do me a big favor and get someone to help us."

Isaac could tell that Ethan was trying not to panic like he was even though he could hear the other werewolf's heart racing, he also herd Aiden say "just relax bro ok will get you out of there soon ok."

Ethan than said "thanks Aid I know we will can I hang up on you because I think Isaac needs someone to talk to a little."

After Aiden said "Ok bro call me if you need me."

Ethan hung up the phone and sat next to Isaac and put an arm around him and said "relax I'm not going to do anything to you ok so why are you afraid of enclosed spaces."

Isaac then said "because my dad used to lock me in a freezer when I would screw something up ,like not do well in school or not cleaning my room properly."

Ethan then said "that sucks believe me if I had know about that there is no way in hell Aid and I would have locked you in that janitors closet." Ethan appeared to be shaking now; Isaac put an arm around him and said "are you ok?"

Ethan replied "yeah I was just thinking about what that must have been like for you even though you were in there with Allison."

Isaac then said "I lost control and almost killed her before Scott got me out."

Ethan then said "dude if I had known I seriously would have talked Aiden out of it."

Isaac then said "would he have listened to you?"

Ethan replied "maybe he does some of the time; it depends on what I'm trying to talk him out of or into."

Isaac then said "What about when you guys killed Boyd, how come you didn't try and talk him out of that?"

Ethan replied "because Kali was there and she could wipe the floor with us if she wanted to."

Isaac then said "so you were afraid of her too?"

Ethan replied "yeah she and Deucalion were the worst; Enis was like a big teddy bear with us."

Isaac then said "really he was like a big teddy bear with you two?"

Ethan nodded and said "yeah he missed the pack he killed as much as Aid and I missed our family and he realised that with us. When he died Aiden didn't believe what Deucalion had said and we talked with Deaton in secret and he told us what had happened. I think he kind of realised we were mixed up in this and over our heads as much as Scott was."

Isaac then said "I guess I never really thought about it from your perspective, but then again we were either running from you two or being beat up by you."

Ethan then said "you know you did get some good shots on me at that rest stop."

Isaac then said "you let me do that though right?"

Ethan thought about it for a second and said "maybe in the back of my mind I did but you did get me when I didn't expect it. Oddly I expected Boyd to be the one to attack not you, mainly because Scott had talked him out of it earlier."

Isaac then said "so how come you didn't start anything?"

Ethan than said "simple I was outnumbered three to one."

Isaac then said "yeah I guess that makes sense."

Just then the Elevator started moving Ethan was first on his feet and held his hand out to Isaac who took it and said "thanks for helping me calm down."

Ethan then said "you're welcome and thanks to you too." When the elevator came to a stop at the Argents floor the doors opened and Alison, Chris and Aiden were standing there. Aiden then said "I could tell by how far your voice was when I talked to you that you were close to here so I came down the stairs."

Ethan than said "thanks bro" and hugged him.

Aiden then said to Isaac "thanks for giving him something to distract him."

Isaac then said "he did more of that with me then I did with him."

Aiden then turned to Ethan and said "do you want to brave the elevator or should we take the stairs?"

Ethan then said "let's take the stairs ok."

Aiden then turned to Chris and said "thanks for letting us borrow your car to go grocery shopping."

Chris nodded and said "anytime you guys need me I'll help out if I can."

The twins made their way upstairs well Isaac made his way to the Argents Apartment, once there Allison asked him if he needed anything.

Isaac was still shaking a little bit from being trapped in the elevator as he said "yeah maybe some water."

Allison left to get some water for him well Chris sat next to him and said "are you ok?"

Isaac then said "yeah I'm fine I just don't like enclosed spaces much, and being trapped in one with Ethan was a little unnerving."

Chris then said "Did he hurt you?"

Isaac replied "no he actually told me he had similar experiences to me. The pack they were in before the Alpha one used to torture him and Aiden by locking Ethan in a closet with a line of mountain ash around him."

Chris then said "that sounds like something we'd do to them."

Isaac looked at him and said "why?"

Allison then came back in with some water for Isaac as Chris explained "some hunters like to torture a werewolf before they kill it." He realised Isaac was still shaking and said "that's something I didn't agree with and still don't. Look as I said in Derek's loft a few days ago I will help you guys out as much as I can none of you, other than the twins, have ever given me a reason to harm any of you."

Isaac then said "what made you change your mind?"

Chris then said "three people actually Scott, you and Allison. Now I take it you came here to talk with Allison if you two need me I'll be in my office."

Chris then got up and went to his office well Isaac talked to her about how he felt and had told her he realised that their relationship just wasn't working. Alison then said "I know Scott and I still have some feelings for each other but where going to keep our distance for a bit because of Kira. H's a little upset by it still."

Isaac then said "yeah I know he missed her almost as much as he misses you."

Allison then said "look just because were not together doesn't mean we can't be friends ok and if Scott is ever being an ass to you, you can always come and talk to me and I'll kick his butt for you."

Isaac laughed and said "thanks I was just worried you didn't like me anymore after you spent the night with Scott when he was hurt."

Allison replied "Isaac you don't have to worry about that ok. Just because we may not be dating anymore doesn't mean we can't be friends ok." She then went over to him and gave him a hug and said "you'll find a great girl someday ok."

Isaac smiled and said "thanks you're a great friend."

Allison then said "do you want to stay for dinner?"

Isaac then said "nah it's taco night and Melissa's home so I kind of don't want to miss it."

Allison then said "that's ok too do you want a lift back home?"

Isaac replied "yeah sure but I kind of want to find out if Ethan is ok before we go."

Allison nodded as she grabbed her car keys and told her Dad where they were going. When they got to the hall they saw an Elevator technician checking the elevator over so they took the stairs up to the penthouse.

When they got to the top Isaac knocked on the door Aiden opened it and said "wow who'd of thought you'd be the first of the pack to come up?"

Isaac then said "I was just heading back to Scott's and I wanted to know how Ethan was."

Aiden invited them and called his twin over from the kitchen. Ethan said "I'm ok now thanks to being trapped with you."

Isaac looked around the apartment and said "it's just the two of you here?"

They nodded as Aiden said "the others lived here too but after Deucalion left town we've had it to ourselves. Were looking for something smaller though but it's hard to find anything. The landlord is ok with us staying here for now so were not in any desperate need."

Ethan then said "you guys are welcome to stay for dinner if you want."

Isaac then said "thanks for the invite maybe some other time. Its taco night and Melisa's going to be home and I just feel like being there."

Ethan nodded and said "that's cool maybe we should come over for that some time. Well have to talk to Scott about that."

Aiden then said "we could have them over here too at some point unless there uncomfortable being here."

Isaac then said "I'll talk to Scott about it when I get home." He then turned to Ethan and said "I'm glad to see your feeling better."

Ethan smiled and said "same back to you and If you want to talk about anything you've got my number now you can call me anytime."

Isaac and Allison then left and took the stairs back down, when they arrived at the McCall house Melissa insisted that Allison stay. She called her dad to let him know she was staying for diner.

During dinner Isaac told them about being trapped in the elevator and some of the stuff Ethan had told him to keep him calm. He also said the twins wanted to have the pack over to their place sometime, but only if they felt comfortable with it.
