His Racer (Teen Wolf x Fast and Furious, Peter Hale)

Chapter 8

The next day Isabella and Laura decided to take Malia and Jack to the beach after they finished their school work, so that's where the 4 were now, Malia and Jack building sand castles while Isabella and Laura were talking.

"How are you doing?" Laura asked her best friend softly as they were both watching the kids

"With what?" Isabella questioned looking at Laura with a soft smile

"Being wanted, Peter being in a coma, raising Malia and Jack by yourself, losing Cora-" Laura cut herself off seeing Issy tensing at Cora's name "You know it's ok to miss her right?"

"I know I just...I can't help but think of what would have happened if me and Peter tried to get custody of her but there was no reason for us to even try. She wasn't being abused, there was no proof of neglect and we were just 2 teenagers, we wouldn't have got custody. But I can't help but think that maybe she would still be here if me and Peter took her with us or we didn't leave, but then if we didn't leave we would've had Malia taken from us and if we did take her we would've gotten arrested for kidnapping so...but I just-I don't know" Isabella said with a sigh

Cora went and hugged Isabella at that who held her tightly.

Isabella was the mother Cora always needed, the one Talia never was. Issy was the one who tucked her in at night, read her bedtime stories, took her shopping, taught her how to do her hair, taught her to drive (although no one knows that as she was sworn to secrecy), who watched movies with her, who held her as she cried, who painted her nails, listened to all her gossip...Isabella was her mom, always had been always would be.

Isabella let out a sigh of relief holding Cora in her arms. She may not have given birth to Cora but she was her daughter, her first child and the guilt she held for leaving her, not being able to save her consumed her. The grief of losing her daughter almost broke Isabella and now Cora was in her arms again, safe, she swore no one would dare harm her baby girl again.

Laura wrapped her arm around Isabella who leaned her head on her shoulder. Yes Laura missed her younger sister more than anything but she knew it was different for Isabella. Cora was Isabella's first child, she may not have carried her or given birth to her, but she raised Cora, taught her right from wrong, taught her how to protect herself and to not to take anybody's crap. Cora was Isabella's daughter and nothing would ever change that fact.

Talia frowned at the screen deeply before looking at her youngest who was glued to Isabella's side which only caused her frown to deepen. Cora was her daughter not Isabella's.

Isabella sighed she missed her eldest more than anything and she wished things happened differently, she wished she was there to protect the girl, or taken her with her and the guilt was always heavy on her heart for failing Cora.

"It wasn't your fault" Cora reassured Isabella who looked at her with a gentle smile

"I love you Cor" Isabella said in full honesty placing a kiss on the girls head

"I love you too" Cora states with a smile of her own, she missed Isabella a lot and she felt at home being in her embrace again

Isabella soon got lost in a flashback of her and Cora.

Flashback...

Isabella was sitting on Laura's bed who was doing her makeup at her desk when Cora came running in with a hairbrush tangled in her hair and tears in her eyes

"Issy can you fix my hair? Uncle Peter got it stuck and now I look like i've been dragged through a bush!" Cora exclaims wide eyed silently praying Isabella will be able to save her hair as Peter came in

People chuckle at Cora's comment.

"I didn't mean too!" Peter defended himself looking at his niece apologetically but she just shot him a dirty look

"Of course I can, come here Cor" Isabella said softly patting the seat in front of her

Cora climbed on the bed sitting in front of the were-coyote who looked wide eyed seeing how bad her hair was and the hair brush which was stuck in it "How the hell did you manage to do that?!" Isabella questioned loudly looking at Peter wide eyed who went and sat next to her

"I don't know! It's not like I meant too!" Peter states wide eyed

Isabella chuckled gently detangling the brush from Cora's hair before carefully brushing the girl's hair as Peter watched her with a smile. Laura looked at her uncle and best friend closely seeing how their bodies naturally gravitated towards each other, how Peter couldn't tear his eyes away from Isabella staring at her as if she was the most precious thing on earth, how an unconscious smile graced Isabella's face as she glanced at Peter out of the corner of her eye and Laura chuckled softly shaking her head.

"About time" Laura mumbled with a grin

Isabella and Peter chuckle softly at Laura who winks at them amused.

Laura loved Isabella and Peter together, they were made for each other, they were perfect.

"There you go sweetheart, all done" Isabella told Cora softly, handing her the brush once she was done

"Thanks Issy" Cora states with a bright smile hugging Isabella who chuckled hugging her back, placing a soft kiss on her head

Cora then ran out of the room sporting a huge smile thankful that she didn't have to chop her hair off

"You're good with kids" Peter muttered with a smile looking at his girlfriend who looked at him with a smile of her own

Isabella shrugged "I guess" she mumbled as Peter reached over to push her hair behind her ear before a throat cleared making them jump as they look at Laura wide eyed

"Erm...I gotta-yeah" Is all Peter said before jumping up and practically running out of the room

Laura looked at Issy with a raised eyebrow and a pointed look

"What's that look for?" Isabella asked raising her eyebrow confused

Laura shook her head "I have no idea what you're talking about" she says with a smile while Isabella looked at her weirdly.

Isabella snapped out of it sighing softly before smiling looking at her kids as they were laughing as giggling together.

Yes things were different and not at all how Isabella imagined but she was happy with how things were going. As long as Malia and Jack were happy so was she.

Authors Note:

Some background of Isabella's relationship with Cora! I know this is really short but i'm having writers block with this book so in the next chapters there might be a big time skip to the next movie, i'm not 100% sure yet.

Hope you enjoy anyway!
