Okay guys, sorry for not updating. I've been in PA for the weekend! But most of you guys have been asking, what is bella up to? And what will she do to poor eddie? Well only one way to find out!
Chapter 6 I Have To
E POV
I walked to the library next to Jean and Natalia talking the entire way, though my thoughts were in other places. I still couldn't wrap my mind around the fact that Bella knew that I was training to be an X-Man and she was acting so… indifferently. She seemed really and truly frustrated, though I couldn't figure out why.
"What are you thinking about" Jean asked me, pulling me away from my thoughts.
"Oh, nothing" I lied. She looked at me for a minute and Natalia sighed.
"He's lying. I bet he's thinking about Bella" she said. I gaped at her and she shook her head "Knew it"
"Edward, what's going on between you and Bella" Jean asked
"Nothing" I lied. She looked at me skeptically, unbelieving and I sighed. It also must run in the family to know when I'm lying. "Listen, before the well… accident, you promised me to watch after Bella. And she told e that since she's an X-Man I can't always protect her…"
"And you figured that if you became an X-Man that you would be able to protect her" she guessed. I nodded my head and she shook her head "From what I've seen and heard about Bella, I'm pretty sure she can protect herself"
"I know, but-"
"but nothing. Bella's a big girl. She can handle herself" she told me
"You tell him, Jean" Natalia said. WE looked at her and she smiled innocently. I rolled my eyes and turned back to Jean.
"I know she can, but I just feel like I have to" I admitted sheepishly. Jean sighed and looked at me.
"It always feels that way, but you can't always do that. She will ask if she needs you" she told me.
"I suppose your right" I sighed
"You know I'm right" she said smirking. Yup, this was definitely Bella's mother.
"Yes you are" I said "I should most likely apologize"
"That would be best" she said
"It would" Natalia said and Jean scolded her.
"Where do you think she is" I asked ignoring Natalia's comment
"I'm not sure. Why don't you go ask around" Jean suggested. I nodded and went off to find her. It wasn't that hard though. She said she was going to the Danger Room unless she really didn't go. But I doubt that she would lie to me. Though if she did I wouldn't blame her. After all I did go behind her back and train when she said she didn't want me too. I sighed knowing that I should most likely apologize for that.
I ran off down to the sub-level to see her walking out with Logan. He looked over her head to look at me and raised an eyebrow at me. I shook my head and walked towards them. Bella looked towards me and sighed.
"I'll give you guys some alone time" he said. Logan gave Bella a serious look ad she nodded. He walked towards me and put a hand on my shoulder.
Compromise, was his only thought then left. I sighed and walked towards her.
"I know you're mad and I'm sorry"
"Okay"
"I- wait a minute? Okay? That's it" I asked
"Okay. You wanna train train. It's fine with me" she shrugged
"I know you aren't fine with it" I sighed
"Well what do you want me to say? You already know I'm pissed a Hades. What more do you want from me" she asked
"I just don't want you mad at me" I said
"I'm not mad at you. I'm pissed at you" she joked though I could hear the anger in her voice.
"Bella-"
"Listen, if this is want you want to do, do it. I just don't want you to feel obliged to do it, kay" she asked
"Okay" I said and she smiled
"Now let's go. I'm hungry" she said grabbing my hand leading me towards the elevator. I cast a quoick glace back at the Danger Room and wondered.
"Will, I ever go in there" I asked hesitantly
"Oh you will. In due time" she said cryptically. I stared at her and wondered what she was up to and if I was going to live through it.
will eddie live through it? will he make amends with bella?! And why are the x-men singing?! and what is reagan hiding?! oh crap, that's the next chapter! oh well, now you know what's gonna happen next. and i wanted to surprise you all. oh well till next time!
