There was a time when Hayden’s biggest worry had been making sure that she had enough money to keep paying for her anti-rejection medication and keep on top of her school work at the same time. So much had changed since Hayden had arrived in Mystic Falls and not all of it was for the better but now things were definitely looking up and she would be the first to admit that a lot of that was down to the people that she now had in her life. For as long as she could remember she had always tried to be strong, it was the only way she had been able to get through the loss of her parents and Jasper and then her grandparents when they died as well. Hayden was used to feeling like she was always waiting for the other shoe to drop but now things were settled and she knew that she wanted it to stay that way for as long as possible. In a year things were going to change when she, Liam, Jasper and Erica all graduated from Whitmore but until then they had another year of normality at college and Hayden knew that she wanted to make the most of it. Scott, Stiles and the others had already graduated and were working their way towards the next chapter of their lives but Hayden had another year left before she had to worry about that and she knew that she wanted to make the most of it while it lasted. It hadn’t all been smooth sailing, she had been brought to town by the Dread Doctors, experimented on and turned into a chimera. She had reunited with Jasper and then been almost killed by someone who had wanted to claim the bounty that was on her head following the release of the hit list. Had Scott not bitten her and turned her into a full werewolf then she knew that she would have died but he had saved her at Liam’s request and not a day went by when she wasn’t grateful to both of them for it. Now things were going well between her and Liam, it had taken them a while to admit how they felt about each other but ever since then they had been going strong and she knew that that was just as it should be. He had been there for her through all of this and it had made the feelings she’d had for him grow more than she had thought possible. Hayden hadn’t planned on falling for Liam but now she couldn’t imagine her life without him in it and she knew that no matter what happened when they graduated, they would make it work. As it was that day they had been out in the woods searching for any sign of the Dread Doctors and Hayden gave Liam’s hand a gentle squeeze as they walked. “I want to find the Dread Doctors as much as anyone after they took Jasper and experimented on me but I swear Derek’s obsession isn’t healthy,” she sighed. “Is Scott any closer to talking him into letting it go?”LIAM DUNBAR

— the world is a bird cage, faded in color — Liam paid close attention to his surroundings while walking with Hayden, their hands clasped together and when she offered his hand a squeeze, he brought his attention to her, his eyes filled with curiosity as he waited to hear what she had to say and as he listened to her next words, he released a soft sigh before nodding his head slowly. “I'm starting to think that vengeance is something that fuels the Hale family more than anything else.” Liam said in a soft voice, his eyes relaxing ahead once again as they walked, focusing his senses on any change in the environment that would give away that they are getting closer to their goal of finding the Dread Doctors. Liam honestly felt as though they were chasing ghosts at this point, but he was a patient guy, not to mention determined, too. He's more than willing to continue chasing those ghosts if it meant that by finding them, they'll stop the Dread Doctors from experimenting on anybody else.
“I think there are things that even Scott can't do.” Liam pointed out with a brief chuckle falling from his lips not long after, though he did sound a bit exasperated. He understood vengeance, he had felt the same way before and with his anger issues, he'd felt it twice as hard, but he had people in his life, very important people, who helped him see past the anger and realize that he'd be losing himself if he gave into the anger. “I get it, though. I get how he feels.” He broke the silence with that statement, his eyes relaxing on Hayden once more. “And I hope that by finding the Dread Doctors, he can finally move forward.” He brought his attention up ahead again, waiting to see if he could notice anything different about those woods, but thankfully, everything seemed the same. For now, that is.

Hayden knew why Derek was so obsessed with the Dread Doctors, he wasn’t the only one who was taken by them and turned into something else but she was doing her best not to let it consume her. She hadn’t even known about the supernatural world when she was turned into a Chimera and the Dread Doctors had taken Jasper away from her for a long time. She had more reason than most to hate them but Hayden had spent too much of her life feeling angry and resentful about the things that had happened and she knew that she didn’t want to fall back into that habit now. Still, Scott had asked them to do this and Hayden knew that she wasn’t going to say no anymore than Liam would. “I think you might be right. Someone needs to teach him how to chill out,” Hayden said, rolling her eyes playfully as they walked. Knowing where they were Hayden was always on alert and her eyes kept scanning their surroundings looking for anything out of the ordinary but so far they hadn’t seen anything and she wasn’t sure whether that was a good thing or not. “I would say he’s the Alpha so there shouldn’t be anything he can’t do but Derek is stubborn so you’ve got a point there,” Hayden laughed. Derek had been a part of this world for longer than any of them, he was born into it while the rest of them were bitten so she could understand why he wanted to get back at the people who took away something he was born with but right now they weren’t getting anywhere and it was frustrating at times. “I know, I do too,” Hayden admitted as Liam said he got how Derek felt. “They’ve messed with so many lives but not everything that has come from it is bad,” she shrugged. They had brought her to Mystic Falls after all and if they hadn’t done that and thrown her into the supernatural world at the same time then she knew that she might not have reconnected with Liam and she might not have found Jasper either. “I hope so too although I don’t even know what that will look like for him,” she admitted. Derek had been searching for the Dread Doctors for such a long time that she didn’t know what he would do once that was over. “Anyway, enough about Derek. How are you doing?” she asked as they walked. LIAM DUNBAR

— the world is a bird cage, faded in color — Liam let out a chuckle at that just because the thought of someone teaching the Derek Hale how to chill out was so absurd to the point where it was funny. "I think he needs divine intervention at this point." Liam said in a light-hearted voice as he continued walking, keeping an eye out for any changes that might give away the fact that they aren't alone right now, but so far, nothing seemed to stand out to Liam, so it helped him relax a bit and focus on the easy conversation that he was building with Derek. "He's far too stubborn." Liam wrinkled his nose and shook his head. He doubted that even Scott's True Alpha status could change that about Derek. He just hoped that with him finally getting his hands on the dread doctors, Derek would be able to move forward with his life and focus on something other than vengeance.
Liam nodded his head slowly as he listened to Hayden explain that not everything that has come from the dread doctors was bad. "I get what you mean." Liam gnawed on his bottom lip for a moment. "Yeah... Or how long that kind of peace will last." In a town like Mystic Falls, he can't guarantee that something else won't happen that will instead bring that vengeance back to the surface again. It would be one hell of a destructive cycle, that's for sure. "Me?" Liam thought about Hayden's question for a moment before his shoulders lifted and dropped in a quick shrug. "Can't complain. I have everyone I care about around me." Liam said with a gentle smile resting on his lips. "Life is good. Well, as good as it can get in a town like Mystic Falls, but I'm good." Liam said with a quick nod of his head following, his eyes relaxing on Hayden once more. "What about you?"

“Oh, I dare you to say that to him next time you see him,” Hayden laughed, knowing that Derek’s reaction would be priceless. He really did need to learn how to relax but the truth was that she didn’t see it coming at all. Derek had been almost obsessed with the Dread Doctors for a long time and Hayden could understand in a way since she’d been taken by them and experimented on too and the Dread Doctors had taken her twin brother away from her for a long time but she had learned how to put that behind her and Derek needed to do the same. Hayden knew that life was far too short, her parents and grandparents had been taken away from her so suddenly and so had Jasper. Add to that the fact that she had almost died thanks to the hit list that was being circulated and she had finally learned that holding a grudge wasn’t always the best thing to do. She had blamed Liam for what had happened to her parents and Jasper for a long time but she had let that go and she was doing her best to do the same with all of the Dread Doctor stuff. “You’re right about that. I guess it runs in the family though, at least he’s not psychotic like Peter,” she shrugged. She had heard a lot about the things that Peter had done and the truth was that she didn’t particularly like him but Derek at least was a good person. The Dread Doctors had changed so many lives during the time they had been experimenting on people but Hayden knew that it wasn’t all bad. If they hadn’t taken her from Beacon Hills and brought her here then she might never had been reunited with Liam or Jasper and she couldn’t imagine her life without the two of them in it now. Some good had come out of it for her and she hoped that eventually others would start to see the silver lining too. “Exactly. There’s always something going on in Mystic Falls so it’s probably only a matter of time before the next supernatural drama presents itself,” Hayden nodded. She knew that was just the way that life in Mystic Falls was, things settled down for a while but it was usually just the calm before the storm and she was pretty sure that this time wasn’t going to be any different. It was easy for Hayden to ask how Liam was doing as they walked, he always seemed to have everything together and she really did envy him for that. He seemed to be taking all of this in his stride. “You deserve that and so much more,” Hayden said as Liam said he had everyone he cared about around him, a smile forming on her face as she looked over at him. He had been her rock through everything since she had found herself in Mystic Falls and she knew that she wouldn’t have been able to get through any of this without him. “I’m glad. If that ever changes you can tell me, I’m here for you,” she said gently, knowing that she wasn’t going to turn down the chance to return the favour if it presented itself. “I’m pretty good, there are still times when I wake up thinking that having you and Jasper back is just a dream,” she admitted. It always took her a few moments to realise that it wasn’t a dream it was actually her life. “Time seems to be flying by right now though, it’s crazy to think that we’ll be graduating next year.”LIAM DUNBAR

— the world is a bird cage, faded in color — Liam's eyes widened at Hayden's dare. "Oh no, thank you." He shuddered visibly at the thought of saying that line again in front of Derek. He'd rather keep his own limbs attached to his body or his face void of any bruises, thank you very much. Liam released a small hum at Hayden's next words before he released a scoff. "I don't think anyone can be psychotic like Peter." Liam frowned slightly at the thought of the other man before he turned his attention to Hayden. "It's like I'm waiting for the alert for a zombie outbreak or something." Liam breathed out. There was just nothing impossible when it came to Mystic Falls.
Liam smiled a little at Hayden's words. "Thanks." He replied softly. "Of course. Same goes for you." Liam added a moment later, wanting Hayden to know that she could do the same thing and come to him.
Liam was quiet as he listened to Hayden. His expression soon softened. "It's not. We're really here, we always will be. Or, I know for a fact that I always will be." Liam said with a gentle smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "Oh, yeah." Liam shook his head in disbelief at the idea of them graduating next year. "It feels so surreal." Liam added a moment later. "Do you know what you're gonna do after we graduate? Cause I sure as hell don't." Liam said with a brief chuckle following.

“I never thought you’d back down from a dare,” Hayden teased although if she was honest she really couldn’t blame him. Derek was often in a mood at the best of times and she could just imagine his reaction if Liam did say that to him. “Don’t worry, I won’t make you do it. I’d rather my boyfriend stay in one piece,” she laughed, patting his arm gently. She knew that she didn’t want to see what would happen if Derek lost his temper with Liam. She loved Liam and she knew that she didn’t want anything bad to happen to him. “You’re right about that, he’s in a league all of his own.” Peter was unhinged but he was Derek’s family and that counted for something. As Liam said he was waiting for an alert about a zombie outbreak, Hayden winced. “Please don’t say that, nothing would surprise me with this town anymore,” she breathed. There was always something going on and some threat that they had to face but if zombies were going to turn up anywhere then she knew that it would be here, just like everything else. As Liam said he was there for her as well, Hayden felt a smile touch her lips. “I know you are,” she said, giving his hand a gentle squeeze. They had been through so much together and she knew that she wouldn’t have made it through any of it without him. They were a team, he was her boyfriend and her best friend and Hayden knew they would always be there for each other. As Liam said that he was always going to be there, Hayden’s smile widened. “You’d better be, otherwise I’ll hunt you down,” she teased even though her heart gave a little flutter as her eyes met his. She knew she could count on Liam, even when she had been acting like she’d hated him he had never given up on her and he had saved her life that day at Whitmore. As Liam asked if she knew what she wanted to do when they graduated, Hayden let out a small sigh of relief as Liam then said that he didn’t. “I’m so relieved to hear you say that because I honestly have no idea,” she laughed. “How are we meant to know what we want to do with the rest of our lives at this age?” Hayden knew there were some people who did and others who knew before they got to this age but she was still trying to figure everything out and she knew that it was the same for Liam.

— the world is a bird cage, faded in color — "I like doing dares, as long as they won't cost me a few limbs." Liam said with a brief chuckle falling from his lips not long after. "Oh, thank you for having some mercy on me." Liam shuddered at the thought of saying any of this to Derek's face. Then, the talk drifted to Peter who was even worse and honestly, he was starting to wonder if the Hale family were just filled with... interesting people. "I really shouldn't jinx it, huh?" Liam breathed out, scratching the back of his neck sheepishly.
Liam chuckled when Hayden mentioned hunting him down. "I mean, that does sound pretty hot, not gonna lie." Liam commented with a small smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. Her next words made him release a soft hum because he honestly had the same question. "Guess we just gotta figure it out step by step and day by day. Nothin' is chasing after us to figure it out right away." Except their mortality but, hey, that's just life for you, right? "Don't worry, we'll figure it out. Together."

"Good point, I wouldn't be surprised if Derek tried to remove one of your limbs if you crossed him," Hayden admitted. Derek was a member of the pack and that meant they all looked out for one another but she still knew better than to get on his bad side and she knew that Liam did as well. The only people Derek seemed to listen to a lot of the time were Scott and Erica and even though Hayden knew they could all count on him to be there when they needed him, she knew that she was never going to be as comfortable around Derek as some of the others were. "I always do. I don't know if you realise this but I happen to love you," Hayden said as Liam thanked her for having mercy on him, a smile touching her lips as she looked over at him. She might joke about him saying these things to Derek but she would never expect him to actually go through with it. Derek's whole family seemed a little crazy and Hayden knew that it wouldn't be a good idea to cross any of them. As Liam said that he probably shouldn't jinx it, Hayden shook her head. "Definitely not. If zombies are going to show up anywhere, you can prtty much guarantee it will be here just like everything else." Beacon Hills had been a magnet for the supernatural from that Scott and the others had said but Mystic Falls was so much worse so she knew that it wouldn't be a good idea to go taking any chances. "Of course you would think that," Hayden said, rolling her eyes playfully as Liam said that her hunting him down sounded pretty hot. "If you're into games, all you had to do was say," she added, a mischevious smile forming on her face as she looked over at him. It was strange now to think back on the times when she'd convinced herself that she hated Liam, she knew now that it couldn't be further from the truth and she liked being able to mess around and have fun with him like this. "That's true, we have time to figure it out," she nodded as Liam said that nothing was making them have to figure it all out right away. "Oh, I know we will. We always do," Hayden agreed as Liam said that they would figure it out together. "One thing I do know is that I don't want to spend anymore time away from you than I have to so how would you feel about us getting a place together after graduation?" she asked. She knew that it was a big step but she had some money saved from her job and she was pretty sure it would be good for them to have their own space. Right now she was still living with her siblings and Liam was still living with his parents so both places could feel a little crowded at times. "No pressure though, if you're not ready I understand," Hayden assured him quickly, not wanting Liam to feel like it was a deal breaker. LIAM DUNBAR

— the world is a bird cage, faded in color — Liam shuddered visibly as if the thought just made cold shivers rush down his spine. He shook his head to dismiss the thought before it could fester and grow. "Well, turns out today is your lucky day because, I, happen to love you, too." Liam teased with a small smirk on the edge of his lips. "I feel like I'd be a pretty bad-ass zombie killer." Liam commented with a small hum as if he was imagining himself yielding a weapon and just killing some zombies.
Liam grinned at Hayden's words before his shoulders lifted and dropped in a quick shrug. "I guess you just know me that well." Liam replied with that same grin still resting on his lips. "Oh, y'know me, I love games." Liam soon added. He listened to Hayden intently with a small smile resting on his lips before his expression turned into surprise when Hayden asked how he'd feel about them getting a place together after graduation. "Oh, shit, really?" Liam's voice showcased he was pleasantly surprised by Hayden's suggestion and so did his expression. "Oh hell yeah, I'd love that, honestly. I think I've been ready for this step for a long time now, trust me."

It seemed strange now to think back on the days when Hayden had told herself that she hated Liam, she had held a grudge for the longest time because it had been easier to blame him for what had happened to her parents and Jasper than it was to accept that they were gone but she knew that had been a huge mistake. He had been nothing but kind to her since she’d arrived in Mystic Falls and the truth was that she knew she wouldn’t have been able to get through any of this without him. She had tried to do things on her own for such a long time after her parents and then her grandparents died because she hadn’t wanted to be too much of a burden on her sister Val but Liam had given her someone that she could count on and she had appreciated that more than she could ever put into words. Now it felt like the worst was over for them for the time being at least and even though the Dread Doctors were still out there and Derek was still obsessed with finding them, Hayden knew she just had to believe that everything would be fine in the end. “I should hope so,” Hayden said, a smirk forming on her face in return before she leaned forward and pressed a gentle kiss to his lips. “Otherwise I might have to rethink those nights you stay over and I stay over at yours,” she teased. She knew that she never would but she couldn’t resist teasing him nonetheless. As Liam said he felt like he would be a badass zombie killer, Hayden felt a smile touch her lips. “You would. That would actually be pretty hot,” she admitted, knowing that she could definitely get behind that. “I should do after all this time,” Hayden laughed as Liam said she knew him that well. As he said he loved games, she rolled her eyes playfully. “Then who knows, maybe we can come up with a few of our own,” she teased. Liam had said the idea of her hunting him down was hot and that was something that could definitely be arranged if he wanted. Hayden knew that asking Liam if he wanted to get a place with her was a big step but the truth was that the two of them had been together for years now and they had known each other most of their lives. Liam was someone that Hayden trusted completely and she already knew that she wanted her future to include him so it was the logical next step. Soon enough they would be graduating and starting the next chapter of their lives but Hayden knew that she wanted them to do that together. “Really,” she nodded as Liam questioned it, unable to deny that she was a little nervous about how he might react. He seemed surprised by it and she thought that was a good thing but her nerves were clouding her judgement and she couldn’t be sure. As he said he would love that and that he thought he’d been ready for it for a long time now, Hayden let out a breath she hadn’t realised she was holding. “Really?” she asked, her question mirroring his from a few moments before. “I’ve been ready for a while too, I just wasn’t sure how to bring it up,” she admitted. “Everything has been so crazy with school but when we graduate we’ll be free and it feels like perfect timing.” They already spent plenty of time together right now anyway but having their own place would be that much better. “I have some money saved up already so we should have some options,” she added, knowing that they wouldn’t have to go for the cheapest place out there to make it happen.
