Nod.

"We could come with you. It's still a little early to sleep," he says as much to Isaac as to her. "I don't think you need to be alone right now, no matter what Lexi says."

Permalink

"I think you should stay here. With Isaac. Tell him everything. I'll come straight back. I don't care about what Lexi wants. I'm not going anywhere with her."

Permalink

"Okay. Just take care of yourself. Don't do anything I wouldn't do."

Permalink

She kisses him once and hugs him again.

"Take care of Isaac. He's pack now. All we have is each other."

Permalink

"I do not swear, Juliet, not by the inconstant moon. If I swear by anything, I swear by thy gracious self, god of my idolatry."

Permalink

Juliet blushes and reaches up to touch his face. "I'll be back."

One more kiss and she tears herself away and out the window.

Permalink

Juliet takes her time walking to the police station. It's not like the man is going to get any deader. She ignores the calls from Lexi and tries to get her head together.

Permalink

The police station is quieting down for the day, but there are still officers there. Someone asks her for her name and tells her to wait, please.

Permalink

She guesses she will do that then and be on her best behavior.

Permalink

An officer eventually comes to speak with her.

Permalink

She introduces herself again and tells them about the... accident? How her friend's dad had a heart-attack while they were having an argument and she's not sure what to do now and she thought she should tell them about it because. Well, he's dead.

Permalink

The officer is very kind and offers some nice words and promises that they'll go check it out. There's no sign that they see this as anything other than what it was: a death by natural causes.

She's free to go.

Permalink

She goes. A little buzzed that it was so easy.

Before she heads back to Matt's she goes shopping and picks up a bunch of essentials for Isaac. Toothpaste and all the stuff that he will need and so he doesn't have to go back to that house.

She makes good time.

Permalink

They're waiting for her when she gets back.

Permalink

...Isaac opens the window to let her in.

"Hey. Sorry about...this."

Permalink

Juliet climbs through the window and goes straight to Matt, curling around him.

"What's happened? What's going on."

Permalink

He tries to say something, but he just starts crying.

Permalink

"We talked. About stuff."

His voice sounds scratchy too, but his tears are dry.

Permalink

Right. Yes.

She holds Matt tight and - offers her arms to Isaac. They're pack now, right? They should comfort each other. She's never been in a pack before, doesn't really know what to do, but this feels correct.

Permalink

He doesn't really feel like hugging right now.

Permalink

Matt would like a hug quite badly.

He murmurs into her hair- snippets of Romeo and Juliet, mostly, with "love you" interspersed throughout.

Permalink

He can have all the hugs and they can stay like this for as long as he needs.

Permalink

"I hate this stupid town. I just wish it was the two of us, and nothing else."

Permalink

"None taken," he mutters.

Permalink

"We're leaving. We don't need to be here. There's nothing for any of us here. Isaac too. He's pack now. I'm not leaving him alone."
