I do not own Mutant X, I am just borrowing them. Thank you to all of you
that reviewed my story. I would like to apologize for misspelling Jesse
this whole time. I guess sometimes what you think in your head is not what
you type. Hahaha! Thank you EarthTreddingStar for pointing that out to me.
The Conversation
"Brennan!" Emma called out trying to rush to him. He stopped and let her catch up with him, but didn't look at her. "Aren't you happy that Shalimar is ok?"
Brennan wanted to run and hide. He knew where this conversation was headed. "I don't want to talk about this Emma. So I would appreciate it if you would just back off and leave me alone." He turned away from him and walked into his room.
Emma blinked the surprise out of her eyes. Yep, something definitely happened between then, and it was up to her to fix it. She gave a little grin and went to find Adam.
"Adam, we need to do something about Shalimar and Brennan."
"Why, what's going on between them."
Emma looked at him like he was crazy. "You mean to tell me that you don't feel the friction in the air every time they are near each other. Ever since they got back they have been acting odd."
Adam sighed and nodded. "Yeah, I've felt it. I don't see anything that we can do about it though. We just need to wait and let them work out their differences."
"Yeah, and they will kill us in the process." Emma snorted. "I have a better plan." Adam leaned in close to listen to the plan. "This is what we do..."
Brennan grabbed a basketball and started shooting hoops. How dare Emma ask if he cared about if Shalimar was better or not? How could anyone possibly think that he wanted her to be harmed? He slammed the basketball onto the concrete then threw it extremely hard to the net. It bounced off the ring and came back to him.
"Loosing your touch there aren't ya big boy." Shalimar said coming up behind him. He ignored her and kept shooting the ball. She shrugged her shoulder and grabbed the ball after his shot. "You cannot just ignore me the whole time."
"I can surely try." He muttered. "Now give me the ball."
She shook her head. "Not until you tell me why you are acting like this."
"Dang it Shalimar I have nothing to say to you. There is nothing between us so grow up and face it." Pain enclosed around his heart ad he watched her wince and then her eyes turn to anger. He didn't want to hurt her. 'No, your just thinking about yourself." he mind yelled at him. Shalimar through the ball at him and then started to walk away. She stopped suddenly and turned to look at him one last time.
"Or maybe you're just to chicken to face what could be." He stopped and watched her as she walked away. They seem to be doing that a lot lately, hurting each other and walking away. He stared down at the ball in his hands and threw it at the wall in anger. She was right. He was just to chicken to find out what would grow between them if they followed their feelings.
