To Love or To Kill
Chapter 4: Chloe meet Brady, Brady…
Belle couldn't believe her luck. Her new best friend was also the same girl her brother had practically had his mind on all day and he had never really met her before. If they had had a formal meeting together already Belle would swear up and down that Brady had liked her. But since that hadn't happened yet she was going to make it happen. Chloe would be coming over her house after she put up her clothes. All the new outfits and then after she got changed for her interview she would come over here. Belle had promised Chloe a ride to Basic Black. She knew her brother would be going and this would make for perfect timing for the two to meet. The more Belle hung around Chloe, the more she realized how shared similar thinking paths as her brother before. Before all that had happened to them. The lost of their father, his sometime evil stares whenever the name DiMera came up, or the fact he was a president to a company at his young age. He barely got to do anything with anyone nowadays. But with any hope Belle would have the two meet and she knew it would a match made in heaven.
Brady was coming down the steps of the penthouse reading company paper in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other. He took a sip and looked up to see Belle in the living room. "Hey Tink, bye Tink" he promptly said leaving the living room as quickly he had came into it.
'Nu un' Belle thought get angry. No way was he going to pull one of those moves where he barely said anything to her. "Brady Victor Black if you do not stop what you are doing and give your sister some attention, I promise she'll scream!" Belle yelled stepping heavily onto the carpet and following Brady closely into the kitchen.
Brady still never looking up asked, "What's up?"
Belle becoming frustrated as not having her brother's full attention for the second time today replied, "My foot up yours if you don't stop reading that document!"
Brady smirked behind the paper as he couldn't help but notice the way he was unnerving his little sister once again. Had he known it was this easy he would of tried it often when they were smaller. Still smiling he said, "Belle is there a reason for your sudden case of PMS?"
Belle went wide eyed as she snatched the paper from Brady's hand and noticed he had been laughing the whole time. He also spitted some of his coffee up as he laughed, and still trying to cover his mouth with his now available hand. "Why'd you do that for? Look, that is an important document you have in your hands. And I'd really like it if you would give it back. I promise to give you my full attention for at least….(Placing a finger on his chin and looking up as if pondering)… for a full 10 seconds. No more, no less. Don't think about giving me the puppy dog face either it won't work."
Belle was about to say something when she thought for a moment then commented, "What is so important about this paper anyways?" as she flipped it over to survey its contents. Belle's eyes once again flew up as she read it. 'This is about Chloe' she thought then smiled. "Ah, that brings to me what I needed to tell you Brady."
"Fine, what is it so I can get back to work," he said to her as she still was reading over the document like she really knew who or what she was reading.
"The new model is a…." Belle had started but the doorbell rang. Belle rolled her eyes and sighed at the interruption. 'This better be Chloe or somebody will be knowing the true meaning of the movie title 'Final Destination' she thought. Belle walked off back into the living room and said, "Good it is you, come" she said not evening caring to greet Chloe. She just began to drag her off into the kitchen.
While Belle had walked off Brady had finished off her statement, "a mystery" he said. This Chloe Wesley had not been accounted for the earlier years of her life. A big chunk of it was missing. Almost as if she had another identity. He had had people researching her files all day, and still nothing. So he would get his answers today at the interview.
"The interview" Brady said aloud as he looked to his watch and noticed it was 4:45 pm. "SHIT!" he said as he ran into the living room grabbed his jacket and briefcase from the couch before Belle could see him and start her PMS trip once again. He did catch a glimpse of the girl behind him but knew he didn't have enough time for a hello or good day. He jetted out the penthouse by sneaking out and taking the fire escape route out the house.
Belle on a rush to the kitchen stopped when she got in there and turned to face Chloe as she did so. Belle hadn't noticed the kitchen had been unoccupied by Brady. But someone else was in there.
"Chloe I would like you to meet the guy who gave you a ride this morning. My dear and oh so loving older brother, Brady," Belle said as she began turning around to introduce her to him, "Brady meet my new friend…" And that's when Belle noticed Brady was gone but somebody else was there, "Mom?"
