Isabelle has always thought that the best times were when she was in the middle of a fight, her whip an extension of her arm, adrenaline running through her veins and her brothers at her back. It had always been when she felt the most alive, when she felt good about herself and what she was doing, good about everything. Since Darrow, there are less demons around anyway and while her and Alec still make it a point to go out most nights, things aren't quite the same without Jace. Everything is off here, and they're having to try and make their lives count apart from being Shadowhunters.
For a while Isabelle had wondered if that was possible, but she's beginning to think that spending time with Billy might be just as good. There's no demons but there is Billy's hand in hers and the way he blushes sometimes when she smiles, and the way she knows he's enjoying himself even if they're just sitting on her couch. It's easy, which is nice, and Isabelle is hoping that he's comfortable enough now that maybe she can make things even nicer.
"There's no Clave here anyway," Isabelle reminds him as they reach his front door. "Tell me more about this reward?" she teases, a smile playing at her lips.
