Isaac's Point of View

Liam seemed to be pleased with the answer I gave regarding my sexuality. I mean I'm glad he asked me and got that out of the way. The worst part about meeting new people and forming new relationships is not knowing their intentions. Every guy I meet wants to be 'bros', but by Liams asking me about my sexuality I'm pretty sure I now know his intentions. And I think I'm pretty happy about them.

"That's good to know," Liam smiled.

"Why do you ask?" I pressed, just to check what he thought about it, and to confirm my hopes.

"I mean it's pretty obvious," Liam started "I think you're cute and I want to get to know you." I did not think he would say that, he just straight-up called me cute.

"Well thank you," I muttered "I'm excited to get to know you," I said which was very true. I couldn't wait to have more conversations with this guy. I probably should have said that he was cute in return because let's face it, he is. But you can't really blame me, I haven't flirted with anyone in a long ass time. Though, hopefully with Liam, I could brush up on my skills a little bit at least.

We get our food and have a good conversation during dinner. Nothing super deep, he mainly asked about my time in France, and I asked about how he was liking school, and adapting to being part of the pack. But it was a nice talk. I felt like I didn't have to put on a mask, and be a dialled down less genuine version of myself. For once I didn't have my guard up. This is one of the first people in Beacon Hills that knows my secret, and I have honestly never felt so liberated. This is not at all how I imagined I would feel. I don't know what I was so worried about. I don't think I will go and tell everyone now, but this is a nice start.

After dinner, Liam walked me back to Derek's house, and although he was slightly smaller and younger than me I could already tell he would be leading and initiating any meetings we had in the future. I guess I just have beta energy, even to other betas. 

We walked for the most part in silence, but every once and while Liam would catch my eye or brush up against me. This made him smirk, and me look anywhere but him. 

Before I knew it, we were at Derek's loft, and surprisingly enough he took me up to the door. 

"Well here we are," he said, obviously. 

"Yep," I replied popping the 'p'. "You could come in if you want, we could watch a movie?" I shocked myself with that proposition. But I honestly had such a nice time with Liam, and I didn't exactly want it to end. Liam smiled and nodded his head. 

The two of us sat on the couch I had earlier slept in with Scott. 

Scott.

The audacity of that man to show up in my thoughts when I just spent a lovely night with a boy who thinks I'm cute and one that I think is cute back. 

Liam pulls me out of my thoughts by asking me if I wanted to watch some action-type show, I nod my head, not really caring. Just wanting to be close to another human being. If I need to watch an awful tv show to do that, then so be it. 

Liam gestured for me to come closer to him. So I did. I'm not one to tell a cute boy no when it comes to cuddling. We situate ourselves so we are lying next to each other on the couch with my head resting on his chest. He smells like a combination of cedar and vanilla, and I would say that I'm a fan. I have not felt this comfortable in a long time.

Liam wordlessly gives the top of my head where my curls are a soft kiss, and I have never felt so content with someone I had just met. 

I just hope Derek doesn't walk in again
