He felt bad for how awkward he'd been acting around Isa. After all, it was his own bone headed fault they were in this situation. She didn't deserve such treatment. Not when she was such a wonderful, sweet delicate female. She made him smile, and laugh, and feel safe. Best of all, Isa kept thoughts of Selene far from his mind. The slim hybrid didn't plague him as long as he was concentrating on taking care of Isa and making her happy.

A small bundle of food had been prepared. Rabbit, apples, even a couple nuts that he'd found. A blanket was grabbed, and he'd checked to make sure that the house was in good condition, fixing a couple pieces of furniture to make sure that everything was perfect for her. Taking a deep breath he headed back to the room. His tail swayed behind him, sniffing to see if she was there. Not that he could really smell anything. As confident as he could get he lifted his hand and knocked, hoping she was in.

All the signs were there, she was sick quite often, constantly tired, and now her belly was swollen. It wasn’t much of a difference but there was definitely a defined bump protruding from her abdomen. There was no doubt in Isa’s mind that she was pregnant with Hadley’s pups. She debated on whether or not she should even tell Hadley. He had seemed much more distant lately and acted different around her. Perhaps he truly didn’t love her like he had said. He probably wouldn’t want a pup either. She hadn’t even told him she had adopted Cadmeia as well. The kit wasn’t currently in the room, having gone out to probably play with Adelle. With a pup on the way, the room they currently used would be too small to fit all four of them, if Hadley even decided to stay. They would need to move into one of the bigger rooms soon.

Isa finally decided it was best to tell Hadley, she had no idea how she would do it, but she would tell him. She jumped slightly at the knock on the door. Opening the door, she saw Hadley standing there. Why he felt the need to knock instead of just walking into the room they shared, she had no idea. You don’t need to knock Hadley. She didn’t kiss his cheek like she used to, not wanting to do so if he truly didn’t love her. There was still a chance he would leave too. He never showed any sign of wanting to make her his mate, so maybe he really didn’t want her.

The door opened, and there was Isa in all her beauty. He smiled down at her, feeling how different this was from their usual actions. Well, he had come here with a purpose after all. Shrugging he tried to think of what to say. Felt right... If he was doing this, things had to be done in a certain way. Knocking on the door included that. He shuffled awkwardly before looking up at Isa, brown eyes uncertain. She wasn't as affectionate to him, another sign that he'd messed up badly.

He didn't know how he was going to fix this, but at least this was a start. Isa...I have something to show you. It had been fixed for a little while, but with Isa in heat, and the resulting awkwardness afterwards, Hadley had been distracted out of his mind and hadn't truly gotten around to it. This time though, he was going to do it. Hadley would show her the house, and she would have her own private place to settle into when she needed it.

Hadley shrugged at her comment, stating that knocking felt right. Did he not think of the room as his too? Why would he feel like he needed to knock? Oh well, that didn’t matter; Isa had something she needed to tell him. She opened her mouth, about to speak but before she could, Hadley spoke up. Something to show her? What on earth could it be? She would just have to wait and see. Alright. Where are we going? A big smile spread across her face as she stepped out of the room. Cadmeia would be fine on her own for a while if Isa wasn’t there. Besides, she was more than likely with Adelle.

Isa didn’t try to take his hand as they walked like she normally would have. She just didn’t think Hadley wanted to be with her. Perhaps what he wanted to show her was another man for her to spend time with so she would leave him alone. No, that didn’t sound like Hadley, even if he was acting different. He was still a very sweet guy.

As they walked, Isa started to feel nauseous again. She looked over to the tree line then back to Hadley with an apologetic look on her face. Sorry Hadley, I’ll be right back. She then took off towards the trees, wanting to put a bit of distance between them so he wouldn’t see her get sick. Isa returned to his side just a few moments later and gave him a small smile. Sorry about that.

A smile broke out on her face at his words. Hadley's tail wagged lightly. He'd been right. This was a good idea. Fixing the house, bringing a snack, grabbing a blanket. Surely this would cheer her up and make her feel better. Surely this would prove that she was a good person, no one to be ashamed of. Hadley wasn't really sure what he was planning on doing, but he wanted her to be happy, that simple smile giving him a warm glow.

They continued for some time, Hadley a little too aware of the space between them and the fact that she was acting different. Probably a reaction to how he was acting. He felt a little rotten for keeping this a secret, but he was sure she'd like it better as a surprise. Confusion broke out as she ran off. Okay, something was most definitely up. He didn't know what it was, trying to be discreet as he sniffed at her. Nothing. He put an arm around her, looking at Isa worriedly. You okay? The house was a very short distance off, the town pulling into view.

When Isa returned, Hadley brought his arm around her and asked if she was alright. She didn’t know how to tell him but she also didn’t want to ruin the mood since he seemed excited to show her something. It’s nothing. I’ll explain later alright? She was being a little grumpy but having his arm around her seemed to calm her down. Isa leaned into him a bit, nuzzling into chest as her own arm went around him as well. The small town came into view and she looked up at Hadley questioningly. Why were they headed for the house? He didn’t seriously fix it up like he said before did he? It seemed like that might be the case. She didn’t think he would though since she pretty much destroyed the interior of the room. The house finally came into view and she saw the new door and could see a few changes so far. He really did fix up the house, all for her. She stopped walking and stood there with her mouth slightly agape. Looking back to Hadley she finally found her voice again. That’s why you have been so distant, you have been fixing the house for me? She couldn’t believe he went through all that trouble just for her. It wasn’t even inside Casa territory. A very large smile crossed her face as she wrapped her arms around Hadley in a tight hug before she looked up and kissed him softly. Thank you Hadley. It was the nicest thing anyone had ever done for her. Maybe he would stay if she told him. Maybe he would want pups. There was only one way to find out. Hadley, I need to tell you something before you show me the rest of the house. She didn’t know how to say it though. Perhaps it would be best to just say it, to just tell him she was pregnant.

Explain later? Something was up. He didn't know what it was, but something was most definitely up with Isa. She nuzzled into his chest, a sign of Isa slowly forgiving him, becoming comfortable to reach out and touch him again. That was good. It felt nice having her warmth again, even with the conflicting memories it sparked. Sooner or later it would slow. Hadley would move on with his life, and maybe stop being haunted by the past. Maybe.

Isa stopped walking as the house came into view. Hadley stepped back, watching her uneasily. Did she like it? Was it okay? Isa finally spoke, asking if he really had done all this. The hybrid nodded his head, looking at the house. It wasn't as good as he wished it was, but better than before. Safer as well, with all the rotten wood removed. Isa moved over, pulling him into a hug. She liked it! His plan had worked! Isa really liked the house!

His tail wagged behind him, happy with the results. A kiss was planted on his lips, the male shocked for a moment before kissing back, the kiss rapidly broken off. He was grinning like a fool at this point, tail wagging behind him. Told she needed to tell him something Hadley nodded. Alright. He could show her the food afterwards.

Hadley stepped back when Isa stopped, seeming unsure what her reaction would be. He seemed thrilled when she hugged him though. She absolutely loved the house and was sure the inside would be equally as great. She needed to tell him though, that way if he got upset, they would both have somewhere to go. Isa still had no idea how to say it or what his reaction would be though. Perhaps it would be best to start off with Cadmeia. Well, I adopted Cadmeia. I know she stayed with you for a bit, but she is going to stay with me permanently. We are going to move into one of the larger rooms soon and if you want, you can come too. I just didn’t know if you would even want to stay, but we need the larger room because, She froze for a moment, suddenly afraid to tell him for some reason. Because I’m pregnant. With absolutely no idea how he would react, Isa made sure to give him some space. Hopefully he would be happy, but there was a possibility he could run too.
