Hey sorry it took so long to up-date. I hope you like it. Please tell me what you think when you're done reading, i love any kind of input.
Jamie wakes up with Adam smiling down at her.
Adam: Hey, how are you doing?
Jamie: Okay I guess since what happened.
Adam: If I knew this was going to happen…
Shalimar: You wouldn't have let her go.
Adam: That is correct. Jamie has been through so much already.
Jamie: Hey, I decide when I have been through too much to do anything. It's my life you know.
Adam: I know, I just worry sometimes.
Brennan: Sometimes. You worry all the time when it comes to Jamie.
Adam: Thank you for pointing that out.
Shalimar and Jamie just laugh. Xavier rolls into the room and turns to Jamie.
Xavier: I see you're doing well.
Jamie: As well as I can be.
Kaddy walks in a little nervously and looks at everyone very quickly.
Jamie: Hey Kaddy did you get enough sleep.
Kaddy: Better than I've had in a while.
Xavier: I'm glad. If you want to talk more you know where to find me.
Xavier turns his wheelchair around and heads out of the room.
Kaddy: He's very interesting that Xavier.
Adam: Yes Charles does have that about him.
Adam smiles at Kaddy.
Shalimar: Sweetie do you want some breakfast. French toast, pancakes, bacon and eggs.
Jamie: Actually I feel like making the breakfast myself.
Adam: Jamie you should just take it easy for a while.
Jamie starts getting out of bed and stands in front of Adam.
Jamie: I'm quite capable of doing it myself.
Jamie grabs the robe at the end of her bed and put it on. Jamie started walking toward the door, she then stops and turned to Kaddy.
Jamie: Kaddy would you like breakfast?
Kaddy: I haven't had a real breakfast in ages.
Jamie: Then let's get cooking.
Both girls walked out of the med lab with Shalimar smiling after them.
Shalimar: You know Adam you have to stop coddling her. She is not a child anymore.
Adam sighs.
Adam: I know. I just can't help it.
Brennan: You're like her second father practically. That's what dad's do.
Shalimar: And you know this?
Brennan: As if you don't remember, I thought I had a son once.
Shalimar: Yes we know. I just think it is funny how you got that father thing down really fast.
Brennan: No it isn't funny.
Shalimar: I know. I'm sorry, please forgive me.
Shalimar lays her arms around Brennan's neck and places a soft kiss on his lips; Brennan smiles.
Brennan: You're forgiven.
Adam walks out of the room smiling and chuckling a little at his two team members.
-Meanwhile in the kitchen-
Jamie: So, pancakes or french toast?
Kaddy: What about waffles and sausage?
Jamie: Yeah with hot cocoa.
Kaddy: That sounds great. I'm already drooling. Let's get started before I drown in my own drool.
Jamie laughs and agrees. The waffles were nearly done when Rogue, Bobby, Jubilee, Logan, Storm, and Scott came in.
Storm: What smells so good?
Jamie turns around and smiled.
Jamie: Waffles and sausage. Have a seat everyone breakfast is almost done.
Rogue: Wow it looks really delicious.
Bobby: Yeah, can we start eating?
Jamie: Of course, please dig in.
Everyone started piling food onto their plates. Jamie handed Kaddy a plate full of piping hot food.
Jamie: The first three will go to Kaddy since it was her idea for making these wonderful waffles for breakfast.
Kaddy smiled and thanked Jamie. Jamie had taken a plate for herself and sat down next to Kaddy. Then the whole Mutant X team showed up.
Jamie: Hey guys, there's waffles if you're hungry; over there on the stove.
They all smiled and went over to get their plate to fill the yummy food onto. Jamie was the first to finish her breakfast. She started to clean up when she had a flash back of the horrible day before. Then she remembered something more horrific that happened many years before. She dropped her plate and the loud shatter of it shook her back to reality with everyone looking at her.
Jamie: Must have slipped. Sorry for the scare.
Jamie walked over to the closet and found a broom and a scoop and started cleaning up.
Adam: What happened?
Jamie: I told you it slipped. I'm just clumsy and I wasn't paying any attention to what I was doing and the plate fell. It is not a big deal, I will replace it.
Adam: Are you sure you're alright?
Jamie: Adam I'm not that little girl anymore. Stop obsessing over ever little thing that goes wrong.
Jamie threw the broken plate away in the trash. Adam was about to follow her when Kaddy stopped him.
Kaddy: She doesn't want to be followed.
Brennan: How do you know that?
Kaddy: I was able to read her.
Xavier wheeled into the kitchen.
Xavier: You were able because you are learning to control your abilities more. You also believe you can control them.
Kaddy: Um, I also got a different vibe from Jamie, but I don't think I should tell you though.
Emma: Then don't tell us.
Brennan: Emma we have to know.
Shalimar: No Bren, Emma is right. Jamie will tell us if she want us to know.
Brennan: But…
Jesse: Sorry Brennan I have to agree with the girls on this one.
Brennan: Lexa?
Lexa: I have to agree with the rest of the team. It's not our business, but I think Kaddy should talk to her about it.
Kaddy: Are you sure? Maybe she won't want to talk to me about it.
Shalimar: I think you are the only one that she will speak to right now.
Kaddy: Okay I will try my best.
Kaddy puts her dishes in the sink and leaves the kitchen.
Brennan: I hope you're right Shal.
Shalimar: Me too.
-Outside-
Jamie was sitting on the bench when Kaddy walked up and sat next to her.
Jamie: I thought you heard what I was thinking at the moment.
Kaddy: Yeah, and I don't even know how.
Jamie: Thanks for not telling them.
Kaddy: They told me not too.
Jamie: Except Brennan.
Kaddy: Yes, except Brennan.
Jamie laughs because that is so like Brennan.
Jamie: I need to tell someone this secret or I will explode. I need to tell someone who is close but not too close. You are perfect because you're not anyone that is inside at the moment.
Kaddy: Are you sure?
Jamie: I trust you.
Jamie told Kaddy before she began.
Jamie: It happened a long time ago when I was eight years old. I was taken to someone who said they could help with some problems. In the end he caused more than fix them.
Kaddy: What happened?
Jamie looked at Kaddy and tears started to form then fall down her checks.
Hope you like the cliffhanger. I will explain just like i will explain the Emma and Xavier talk later in the story but you will have to be patient and wait. Please tell me if this story/chapter was good or bad. Your reviews will help me in later ones. Thanks for reading. Please R&R.
