Isaac was flying, the pepper up potion he had taken made him feel like he was invincible. He usually apparated to Flint Manour and instead flew from the nearest apparition point. Dropping to the ground, he grabbed his broom and entered the house quietly. The wards still accepted him and he headed toward the kitchens to steal something to drink before finding Isolde.
He spent nearly and hour with his sister, rubbing her belly lightly and listening to her talk. It took him that long to work up the courage to leave the solarium and head down to the work out room to find Marcus. He didn't share his issues with Isolde but he knew she already knew about what was happening in his life. It was awkward and a relief not to have to keep the secret.
Entering the workout room quietly, he stood off to the side and stared at Marcus while he worked. A sense of deja vu stole over him as he watched, he had done this before. It was different then. Everything had changed.
