Room 226, Wednesday night

[blessed_twice]

After orbing himself, Isabel, Michael, and Ronan from the beach, and after Ronan and Michael had left them, Wyatt shut the door behind them and walked across the room. He put his hands on Isabel's arms. "Hey," he said softly. "How are you doing?"

"Tomorrow," Wyatt agreed, setting his phone aside. "I'm not letting you out of my sight tonight."

"I wasn't planning on leaving," she admitted, leaning close. "For a while I didn't think I'd be able to do this again."

[blessed_twice]

"Me too," Wyatt said, wrapping his arms around her. "I thought I'd lost you."

"You almost did," Isabel whispered into his shoulder. "But you saved me. You and Ronan and Michael."

Wyatt rubbed his hands up and down her back. "We had help," he said. "Chris and Peter, Sam and Dean."

She remembered, or at least Meris remembered seeing Chris and Dean there as everything went to hell. "Peter and Sam were there? Really?"

[blessed_twice]

"They weren't there," Wyatt said, shaking his head. "Sam had a vision that you and Meg were in trouble, and then he saw you later on the beach. And Peter drew a picture of you on the beach with me -- and said what he draws comes true. So we knew we were going to get you back."

"Yay for psychic friends," Isabel said. She smiled briefly but it faded as she thought about how it could have been. "It still must have been hard."

[blessed_twice]

"Yeah," Wyatt admitted quietly. "I wasn't handling it well."

She tugged him towards the bed, wanting nothing more then to hold onto him and be held. "Tell me."

[blessed_twice]

Wyatt sank down on the bed, pulling Isabel with him. "When you disappeared, I lost control of my powers," he said.

Curling into his side, Isabel slowly started to relax. "You were upset. That's understandable."

[blessed_twice]

"I wanted to go after them and kill them all," Wyatt said. "Chris had to knock me out."

"Wyatt..." But there wasn't much she could say. If it had been him. Or Max or Michael, she would have felt the same.

[blessed_twice]

He hugged her tightly. "I'm okay," he said. "And you're okay." He gave her a concerned look. "You are okay, right? Do we need to do anything to get her out of you completely?"

"I don't know. She's quiet now," Isabel told him. "But I think maybe I should talk to Bridge? Maybe he can tell if she's really gone."

[blessed_twice]

"Definitely," Wyatt said. "I want to make sure she's totally gone. I just want you in there."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I just want me in here," she agreed. "Even if I feel like I hijacked her body."

[blessed_twice]

"But you're you," Wyatt said, running his hand along her side. "You look like you. You feel like you."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I know. But this was her. I didn't heal her. I changed her. To me," Isabel said slowly. "And somehow sent myself along for the ride. Hello alien weirdness. But I guess it's a good thing I did because otherwise..." That was something she didn't want to think about.

[blessed_twice]

Wyatt didn't want to think about it, either. So instead he put his hand under her chin and tilted her head up, then brought his lips down on hers.

Isabel returned the kiss softly for a long moment before pulling away and resting her head on Wyatt's shoulder. "Just hold me?"

[blessed_twice]

"Nothing I want more," Wyatt murmured, more than content to just lay there and hold her.

"He's dead," she said finally.

[blessed_twice]

"Who's dead?" Wyatt said. "The guy who did this?"
