68.“Let’s do something crazy.”
“Let’s do something crazy.”
Isaac’s eyes flickered up to look at his girlfriend,his head resting on her lap. The two of them had been watching an episode of some sitcom when the teenage girl had suddenly spoken up.
“Like what?”
“I don’t know,” Sutton answered with a shrug, anexcited energy about her, “let’s take a road trip or something.”
“You mean ‘right now’?” The beta questioned, a smirk playing on his features.
“Yeah! Let’s do it.”
The grin on the blonde’s face was bright, stretchingacross her face, reaching her brown eyes.
“And what brought this on?”
“Maybe the fact that it’s summer and we’re just sitting around, doingnothing. All we’ve done really is watch Netflix and play with Peanut andRupert.”
It was true. The majority of their time-when Isaac wasn’t off with his alpha, looking into the weird, angular triskelion that neither of them knew that Sutton had knowledge of- had been spent binge-watching television series and bonding with their kitten child and Isaac’srecently acquired leopard gecko. (Derek, in a surprising act of friendship, hadgotten the younger man a pet after finding out he had never really had one. Theusually brooding werewolf had shrugged it off afterward, acting like it wasn’tthat big of a deal.)
“Okay- say your parents agreed to let you leave and would watch Peanut and Rupert, if Derek couldn’t take care of him… wherewould we go?”
Sutton faltered for a second before beaming onceagain.
“We could just get in the car and drive until we feltlike stopping somewhere.”
Isaac gazed at the girl in a mix of amusement and adoration.
“Do you really think that’s well-thought-out?”
The oracle quirked an eyebrow.
“Does that mean you don’t want to go?”
There was a moment of silence before-
“Go get your stuff together and call your parents.Then we can head over to the loft and I can pack a bag.”
