Chip to my heart

Chapter Twenty – Protecting Him

Bpov

"How are you" Esme asked sitting on the chair facing me.

I shrugged my good shoulder something about her was making me feel uneasy.

She acted so cold towards people, she was all business and that frankly scared me a little, because it was like she had no emotion. She saw her mission and did it, damn anything else, or anyone else who got in her way.

"Good work on securing Alec, we got some information from him that is going to very useful" she said leaning back in the chair.

"And Tanya, did he give any information on her" I asked holding my breath waiting for the answer.

"That isn't of your concern, and you'll do well to not let Edward go on another wonder session looking for her" She said glaring at me.

"She's his sister" I argued back "what ever you think she did, that fact will never change you can't keep him from her"

"I get it you know" she said looking up "Why you want to help him with this, with your own family history and all" her face watched me for my reply.

"Don't you dare" I hissed out she continued though. "But your job is to keep it safe" she said looking at me.

"Him" I hissed out.

She recoiled back as she looked at me, if the situation we was discussing wasn't so sensitive I might of laughed at the look on her face, she looked like I had slapped her, but I wasn't finished making my point.

"Him safe … Edward ….. My job is to keep him safe, not the chip him … he's a human being"

"Do you need to be reassigned Agent Swan" she asked standing "Are you becoming to involved with your detail to do your job properly"

I chuckled standing up walking towards the window. "Does this look like I can't do my job" I said pointing to my back in the reflection of the glass.

I stood staring out the window willing my emotions to calm down.

"I'll keep Edward safe, but I won't lie to him, and I won't stop him from getting the truth, I will how ever make sure I'm there to protect him, even from himself." I stopped turning to face her, she looked shocked that I had answered back yet again.

"I suggest you step down Agent" she said walking around the room "I could have your job for this"

"You wont fire me from a job I didn't apply for, A job that in my first day I took a bullet securing two agents lives, I was chosen for this job, and I'm going to do it, but I'm going to do it my way." I stopped taking a breath before I spoke again "The other reason I know you wont fire me is because you don't believe Tanya was a traitor just like you don't believe she's dead, your just worried that Edward will rebel against you all for hiding the truth" I spat out still looking out the window.

The last few days I had, had a lot of time to think, and things hadn't made sense to me for a while, I'd come to a number of different conclusions but the look on Esme face and the way she was handling the situation proved me which one was the truth.

"You're walking a dangerous line Isabella" she said I chuckled in reply shaking my head.

"Next week were still on leave I'm going to help him bring Tanya back, one way or another" I called out, I herd her feet stop at the door.

I waited for her reply but got none, a minute later the door slammed shut.

I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding as I walked back to the coach practically throwing my body down as I closed my eyes.

I sat in the quite room words going over and over in my mind of the conversation that just took place.

"That was either incredibly brave or incredibly stupid" I herd his voice say as he sat next to me I nodded in reply my thoughts thinking the same thing.

A/n Leave a review let me know what you guys think of this chapter, Im curious to if anyone expected this or something else at this meeting , sorry for the non-reply this week I read each one I will try and reply to them this time as well.

I love LOVE this chapter. I had so much fun writing it, I love how she's standing up for Edward, and making it known she's on his side, this is a huge shift in there relationship, I'm struggling with chapter 30 at the minute it's not going how i want it to, so there might be a delay in updates for a few day's I'm going to clear my head tomorrow and sit down and try it again.
