RATING: TBD
STATUS: In progress
Isobel hated being a kid, especially with the repeated comments about how cute she was. But even through that, one good thing came out of it--or would come once she was adult again. If she hadn't been turned into a human child, she would have never thought to ask if Peterson would be able to make her human permanently. And he was going to! All she had to do was wait out the kid thing. Though even through that, a part of her didn't believe it. She wanted to, but in all of her research of the supernatural, she had never seen stories of vampires becoming alive again. But this Peterson did have the power to do things that she had never seen before. She'd just have to test it when the time came.
She rolled over when she felt the sun on her face. She blinked her eyes a couple of times, not quite ready to get up. Since being turned into a child, she was having to get used to actually needing regular amounts of sleep among other things, like hunger. That was the second thing she noticed that morning. She was definitely starving. She hoped that some of the food Elena brought over was left.
It wasn't until she pulled back her blankets to get out of bed so that she could go to the kitchen that she noticed she had longer legs than she had the night before. She blinked, almost thinking she was imagining things, but then she went to the mirror, looking in it to see a face she hadn't seen in what seemed like an eternity, though in reality it hadn't been that long.
Hunger and exhaustion put aside, she knew it was time to put her humanity to the test. She walked over to the window and closed the curtains so that only a small strip of light peeked through. Standing off to the side so that she wasn't in the direct stream of sunlight, she unhooked her necklace and set it down before putting her hand in the stream of light. It didn't burn. She held it there longer, but nothing changed. She opened the curtains more, letting the sunlight hit her full body. While she hadn't had to hide from the sunlight as long as she had the necklace on, it was strangely freeing to know that now she didn't have to wear it. She was alive.
It was only then that it occurred to her that Ric had been a child too. Was he adult now too? She walked away from the window, leaving the necklace where she laid it--she had plans for that later--and walked toward the bedroom door. Adult or child, she had to see Ric right now. She had to let him see her as a human again.
