A/N: I do not own Teen Wolf or any of it's characters.
9 Reasons Why
Video 8- Isaac
"Isaac, my puppy." Stiles first words bring a whine of panic and longing out of Isaac's throat. Derek turns to look at him in confusion, he had never heard Isaac so desperate before. "Isaac, my sweet loving boy. I know this is going to be very hard on you, I know that you wont be able to sleep without me for a while." The pack looked at Isaac in confusion before Stiles answered the question for them. "I know that I calm your nightmares when you cuddle with me, I know that it will be harder, there will be more nightmares and I am sorry for that. I wish I could stroke your hair and tell you that it will all be okay, but it wont." Isaac is crying softly now, rubbing his cheek against the video of stiles on his phone.
Derek goes over to his young Beta and picks him up bridal style as they walk quickly towards where Stiles scent is leading them. Isaac howls lightly in sorrow as he listens to Stiles words.
"I'm so tired my puppy, I'm so tired. I'm tired of lying, I'm tired of the bruises that I can't quite hide. I'm tired of loving someone I can never have and I'm tired of not being able to be with the family I love. I can't do this anymore, I just can't and I am so sorry. I tried so hard to be better, to get better but nothing I tried seems to help at all. I try to tell myself that I will wake up tomorrow and everything will change, it will all be different. I will be able to tell Derek the truth, that I can hold you without you having to worry that you will accidentally hurt me." Stiles sobs and for the first time they hear the real sorrow in his voice, they hear the desperation and they start to run.
"I didn't want to leave you like this, any of you, but I know that it's time. My body, mind and heart are all telling me that I cannot go on, that I can't do this anymore." Stiles cries quietly and they all hear the dry sobs and the quiet sniffles.
Isaac is by now so upset that he can't hold in his howls. Isaac howls at the moon in a desperate plee to his pack mom to live, to live for him. Derek almost stumbles when Isaac's desperation hits him, but then he realizes it's not just Isaac's it's the whole packs desperation, they're need to find Stiles alive.
They've been running for a good ten minutes through the woods when Stiles finally speaks again on Isaac's phone. His voice is small and broken and they can tell that he isn't going to wait much longer, after all there was only one video left after Isaac's. They just hoped that maybe he would keep talking to Isaac, keep trying to comfort the boy while he's falling apart himself.
"My poor Isaac, I can never apologize enough for this. I really can't, I can't even really try and explain it, I just wanted you to know that I love you and that I really am sorry. All I want is for you to be happy, to live for me, to live for the pack. They'll take care of you, they will put you back together, because that's what a real family does, they help one another." Stiles voice is rough from his crying and they can tell that he will be hoarse soon.
"The last video is to my father, who is the orchestra to this concert. I know none of you are with him so I will also send the video to Isaac's phone. This last video will be live, I doubt my dad is awake yet so I can only hope that when he wakes up he will watch it. I love you Isaac, I will always be with you and I know that you will grow up to be strong like Derek and you will be gentle like Scott. You will be funny like Danny and you will be smart like Lydia. I wish I could see it, wish I could be a part of it. It's too late now, but know that I will forever love you, all of you, in your own ways."
Isaac let out a heart breaking howl that he knew Stiles would be able to hear, he hoped that it would be enough to at least stall the man from doing what he was planning on doing, enough so that they could get there in time. Isaac's phone pinged almost seconds later and Isaac tapped the live feed quickly, still being carried by Derek as they made their way closer to the pack member who needed them.
