Secrets

"I can't believe you're gonna do this!" I yell at Isaac.

"It's the only way! Derek could die!" He yells back.

"He did! My brother died!" I yell.

"He didn't! We just thought he died!" He yells.

"Which you didn't even tell me! He's my brother! You're my..." I stop as Vicky literally starts screaming out of nowhere.

Isaac and I look at her and I run to her crib. I pick her up and Isaac looks at me. "What's wrong?" He asks.

"I don't know. Maybe your behavior towards your girlfriend." I say walking out of the room to the kitchen to make a bottle.

"Will you ever stop being angry?" He asks.

I hand him the screaming baby. "I'm not angry." I say.

He opens his mouth but his phone rings. He looks at me and sighs before kissing my head. "I love you, okay? I'll see you tomorrow." He says walking to the hallway.

"Where the hell are you going?" I yell giving Vicky her bottle which she takes and immediately makes her go quiet.

"Scott needs my help! Love you! Bye!" He yells walking out the door.

"Isaac!" I yell in disbelief.

I hear him sigh in annoyance. "What, Alice?" He says in the same tone.

He walks back into the kitchen and look at him. "I love you too." I say softly.

He walks over and kisses me putting his hands in my neck. "I'll see you tomorrow." He whispers before leaving the apartment.

The next morning I wake up by Isaac looking for something in my room. "What are you doing?" I ask sitting up.

He stops and turns to me. "Nothing." He says smiling suspiciously.

"Is?" I frown.

"I'm looking for something. But I can't find it. I'll look tonight. I've got to go." He says walking to the door.

"I've got that check up at the hospital with Vicky." I say.

He stops with his hand on the doorknob. "I know." He says.

"Why don't you come?" I ask.

"I've got that thing with Boyd and Derek." He says.

I sigh putting my legs over each other. "I can come." I say.

"If you can walk without pain, sure." He says looking at me.

"You know I can't." I sigh looking down sad.

He smiles and walks over to me. He jumps on the bed in front of me and pulls the covers off of me. He grabs my legs and pulls me under him.

He kisses me passionately and I smile. "I can't. It's to early for sex." I say.

"It's never to early. We'll be careful." He says kissing my neck.

"No, Isaac." I laugh.

Talia starts crying and Isaac sighs pulling me up. "Go." I say pushing him away with a smile.

"I'll see you tonight." He says kissing me quickly.

"See you tonight." I say kissing him sitting up.

He smiles and walks out. I sigh and look at Talia in her crib. I spend my day with both baby's terrorizing my peace and quiet.

I get no sleep because when Talia is sleeping, Vicky is awake. After a while I get the news that Deaton has gone missing. Its late in the night and I'm sleeping on the couch.

The front door opens and gets locked. "She's probably already asleep." Dad says.

"Okay." Isaac says his voice sounds raw and it breaks a little.

I get up and walk over to them. "What happened?" I ask them.

They look at me and I see Isaac's totally out of it. He's clearly about to cry and it looks like the tears of trauma's have washed up.

"Boyd's dead. Killed by Kali and the Alpha twins. They dropped him on Derek's claws. Derek's gone MIA." Dad says.

I put my hand over my mouth feeling bad for Derek and Isaac. "Oh, Isaac." I say softly.

He doesn't look up or moves. I walk to him and put my arms around his neck as dad walks away to the twins.

Isaac holds onto me for life and we stand there for what seems hours. I'm sat on our bed as Isaac's under the shower.

I'm giving Vicky her bottle and Talia's in her crib. I'm looking at Vicky and she has a hold on my pointer finger.

"You're a strong little human." I smile softly.

She looks at me and I smile more looking at her blue eyes just like Isaac's. "And you have your daddy's eyes." I whisper.

Talia grunts and I guess she's waking up. After Vicky finishes her bottle I lay her down between some pillows. I get up and walk towards Talia. I pick her up and walk back to the bed.

I sit down with her and look at Vicky. "And...she's out. Just like your freaking dad." I smile at Talia giving her the next bottle.

She opens her eyes and looks at me. "You've got my eyes. Luckily, I can't be outnumbered." I say softly.

She holds my finger and I kiss her tiny hand. Isaac walks back in and I look up. "They're both fed. I just need to bath them and then we can talk if you want to." I say.

He nods and gets in the bed next Vicky. I look at him as he picks her up and lays her on his chest. "She's smaller then Talia." He says after a while.

"It's because of her heart disease." I say softly and he looks at me.

"She was gone for 10 minutes. We're lucky she's still with us." He says holding my hand as I put Talia upwards to let her burp.

"We're lucky to have them both." I whisper as both girls fall asleep.

"Thank you." He says looking up at me.

I turn to him with a frown. "For what?" I ask.

"For everything you've ever done to me. For giving me love and time when I ask. For..." he looks at the girls. "My family." He says softly still holding my hand.

I smile and kiss him softly. "I love you. I love you so much." I say squeezing his hand tightly.

"How heart warming. A little family moment after the death of a dear friend." The blind says in the doorway.

Isaac and I look up in shock and Isaac puts Vicky in my free arm. "What do you want?" He asks getting up.

"I want to talk to Violet." The man says.

"Isaac, you know this guy?" I ask putting the girls in the bed.

"Yes, it's Deucalion." Isaac says standing in front of me.

I look at Deucalion and he smirks. "You see the resemblance, don't you?" He asks me.

Isaac looks at me and back at Deucalion. "What does he mean, Alice?" He asks.

"He's my father." I say looking at Deucalion.
