Maddy is packing her back with the help of her father. "Was that everything?" He asks while he looks around the room.
She nods looking at him, she looks at her hand in the cast and then at her reflection n the mirror. "Those three days in the hospital are nothing new. And nobody knows it was you guys that night," her dad says noticing how quiet she is.
Maddy had been quiet and only gave short answers since she woke up. She has a concussion with a bruise, stitches and a bump on her forehead. "Maybe...maybe people will think you fell or something. Or that you had a fight with Jackson as always," he continues but the door opens and Melissa hands him thee discharge papers.
Maddy grabs her bag and her bottle of water as he signs everything. "Can we go?" She asks.
When they get home, Maddy goes to her room and starts cleaning out her bag. She lays in her bed when everything is cleaned up, she just stares at her ceiling until it's around 3pm.
"Is she home?" Stiles asks the second he pushes open the front door.
Maddy stays put in her bed as the door flies open. "Mass!" Stiles shouts as he jumps into her bed.
She barely reacts while he looks at her. "I have Harry Potter. Comfort foods. A new blanket and a new book," he smiles making her look at him.
"I'm okay,' she lies.
"It's okay if you're not. But you'll always have me," he smiles as he hugs her.
The next day, the two walk into the school, Isaac walks over to Maddy who is trying to open her locker. "What's the combination?" He asks making her jump a little at his sudden presence.
"11 23 72, my mom's birthday," she sighs not looking at him while tears build up in her eyes.
Isaac looks at her before opening her locker and taking out her books. "Madelyn..." sheriff Stilinski starts as he walk over to them.
They both look at him, he nods to Isaac as a greet before focusing on his daughter. "Listen, I'm not coming home tonight, Stiles is going to Scott. I want you to order pizza or something and eat. Don't stay up till to late," he says making her nod.
He walks away and Isaac looks at her. "What?" She asks.
"I can come over," hee says with a shy smile.
"What about your dad?" She asks worried.
Isaac looks around the hall to see if anyone is listening. "He will probably be to drunk to notice that I'm gone," he says as they start walking to the test.
She let's out a sigh. "Fine," she says making him nod with a slight smile.
He smiles, clearly happy about the outcome. They walk into the test, Maddy ignores Scott who looks at her as she sits down next to Stiles and behind Isaac.
Stiles and Maddy go over their notes together, whispering the things they're discussing before they are silenced by their teacher. Mr. Harris puts the test on the table and starts the test.
Maddy is to focused on her test to notice Scott walking out of the test. Only when she is done, she notices him and her brother being gone. She frowns before she sits back waiting for the others.
When it's done, she walks to the cafeteria, the only person she likes in there is Allison who is talking to Jackson. So she goes to the lacrosse fields where she looks at Isaac as he trains with Danny.
The two are laughing while Isaac keeps trying to hit goal. "See! I told you we should practice more in case Maddy comes to watch the next game," Danny shouts across the field.
"i don't need practice, you need to practice less. You're too good," Isaac smiles as he takes off his helmet and runs to the bench to drink a little.
Maddy walks away, not wanting to disturb them as they seem to enjoy themselves. But Isaac sees her and calls her back. She walks to them and Danny switches places with Isaac.
Maddy is bored and playing with a stick until Danny walks over to her. "Play with him. Just for a few minutes so i can eat," he says as he sits down.
"Can't. Cast," she says holding up her hand.
"Come on, Maddy. I just want to eat and he won't mind," he says pushing her off the bench.
Maddy sighs before she walks off to the place Danny was standing. Isaac and Maddy start practicing until coach walks on the field. Maddy looks at coach who just hands her a jersey.
"Coach..." she starts.
"Your grades are excellent. But you need to do some extracurriculars. When your cast is off, you're joining the team. You can't say no," he says making her sigh with a nod. She looks at the number on the jersey, a small smile forms on her lips.
Maddy walks through the door of Isaac's house. She is feeling a little scared as she knows what the man living in it is capable off. She walks after Isaac to the backyard where she stands a little behind Isaac.
"Dad?" Isaac asks making his father look up.
"Madelyn Stilinski? In my house, with my son? What do i owe the pleasure of this young lady being here to?" He asks with a smile.
Maddy smiles as she looks at the pool, she spend at least half her childhood in it. Learning to swim from the previous kind hearted man sitting at the garden table in front of her
"It's good to see you again, mr. Lahey," Maddy smiles warmly.
"Uhm. Dad? Her father has to work all night...and her brother will be at Scott's...is it-is it okay, if-if i-i sleep a-at her house-house?" Isaac asks, stammering because of the fear.
Maddy carefully takes his hand which is in a fist on his back. She didn't know how truly terrified he was of his dad until now. His dad thinks about it for a few seconds, but it seems like hours.
If he agrees, Isaac will be safe for at least tonight. But if he doesn't, he will be abusing Isaac all night. That scares Maddy more then her own safety being in the house.
"Okay, but you guys be safe. Use a condom," he says before he starts laughing hard.
Isaac nods before he takes Maddy away to his bedroom. Maddy looks around while Isaac starts filling his bag to stay at her house. "You were terrified of him," she says as she looks at the desk.
"Wouldn't you be if you were me?" He asks.
"I would let my best friend help me in going to the police. Who is only her father," she says looking at a picture of them.
Isaac ignore her putting his last piece of clothing in his bag. "Ready?" He asks looking at her.
She nods causing them to leave his house. They make their way to the Stilinski house in almost compleet silence. When they get there, they go to Maddy's room where Isaac puts his bag.
"What now?" Isaac asks.
"I don't know," she chuckles as she sits down on her bed.
"Remember hen we used to dance?" He smiles.
She sits up while grabbing her phone, she puts up a song. She grabs his hand and pulls him towards her to dance. Isaac laughs as he gives, just accepting his fate.
Maddy smiles as he moves her around like it's nothing. He knows her exact steps when they're dancing, they don't make any mistakes.
Maddy looks at him, butterflies again. She breaths out as their faces end inches apart. The dance continues, they both keep losing their breaths.
The two dance until 6pm when they eat pizza with a movie on, Maddy looks at him a few times. He does the same, both trying not to be suspicious about it.
After they're done eating, Maddy goes to the kitchen and does the dishes. It's just their plates as nobody else has eaten at home the whole day.
Maddy looks at Isaac who is looking through the movies. She leans against the doorway with a smile. "You know it's creepy to stare right?" He asks.
"And impolite. But I couldn't help it," she smiles.
"Why not?" He asks looking at her finally.
"Why yes?" She smiles.
He chuckles shaking his head. "You're weird sometimes," he smiles.
"Says the best friend," she smiles.
He gets up and walks over to her. "What if i don't want to be just the best friend?" He asks.
"What else do you want to be?" She asks looking up as he leans his arm on the doorpost above her head.
He moves his thumb over her glossed lips, they part slightly. "The person whose name you scream," he whispers before he kisses her.
