I sat with Allison, doing my homework while she searched the Beastiary. We heard movement coming from upstairs and I dropped my pencil, prepared to attack. I heard an electrical zap and a whimper and I laughed. I moved my books off my lap and made my way towards the sound. "Electrified the windows?" Isaac questioned,

"My dad took extra precautions since I broke into the house on Friday." I smiled, "Guess I forgot to tell you."

"Mhmm." He smirked, "I'm sure you did."

"What are you doing here?" I asked,

"I figured you and your sister might need an extra hand. Or a pair of eyes." He answered,

"Can you read Latin?" I asked him as we made our way back to the room Allison was in,

"No, but I can look at pictures." Isaac said.

"Well, then, let's go."

Allison printed out multiple pages for us to look at, so we wouldn't get in her way. I took Isaac with me to my new room and I sat on the ground, looking over my pages, "You find anything?" Isaac asked, sitting right behind me,

"There's a reference about flies being able to carry messages to the dead. What about you?" I asked,

"Oh, just Beelzebub, the Lord of the Flies." Isaac answered, his breath on my neck,

I turned to face him and found him really close to me. He was staring at my lips and leaned in. I almost did, too, but at the last second turned away from him, "Are you serious?" I asked,

"What?"

"You were just trying to kiss me." I stated,

"No, I wasn't." He replied with a stupid grin on his mouth,

"Then what were you trying to do? Head-butt me?"

"All right, maybe I was trying to kiss you." Isaac admitted,

"Isaac... I'm still in love with Derek." I said,

"Derek hasn't been here in months, Maddie."

"And neither have I. But my feelings for him are still there." I stated,

"He doesn't feel for you anymore." Isaac replied,

"How do you know?" I asked,

"Cause he hooked up with my English teacher! And let me remind you, she was a Darach! She killed people!" Isaac said angrily.

"Isaac-"

"No! I was always there when he made you sad, Maddie! He's hurt you multiple times, and you still love him?! Why?!"

Isaac's eyes turned gold and his claws came out. I grabbed his arm and he pushed me away. He growled at me, his fangs showing. I lunged forward and dug my claws into his arm, "Calm down." I growled, my eyes flashing purple.

His eyes turned back blue and they widened, "Maddie! I'm so sorry!"

I wrapped my arms around him, "It's okay, Isaac, you're okay."

He sobbed into my shoulder and we both slid to the ground. I stroked his hair, and the lights began to flicker before going out. We both stood up and these shadows appeared. I grabbed onto Isaac's hand but he pushed me towards the door,

"Isaac!" I screamed as the door slammed shut and it wouldn't open.

Behind me, my dad and Allison ran over and tried to help, "Isaac, open the door!"

"Isaac!"
