In the morning I awoke to the smell of eggs, pancakes, and bacon.
"Something smells good." I said coming in the kitchen I kissed Rachel on the forehead and went to the table, she brought me a plate of food.
"I hope you like it." She said making herself a plate of food. I stared at her in the kitchen thinking how she is in my house wearing my clothes cooking me breakfast... could it get anymore perfect, and thats when the doorbell rang.
"The food is delicious Rachel." I said heading toward the door chewing the pancake i had in my mouth. I look through the peephole and its Carl. I turn back to Rachel with a worried face.
"What? What's wrong?"
"Its Carl. You need to hide now." I said pushing Rachel into my room. I went to answer the door and Carl just stepped in without an invitation.
"I told you to stop seeing the girl. She will get in the way of things."
"Carl, I like her, l liker her a lot." I had strange feeling Rachel's ear was pressed against the door
"I don't care. She is getting in the way. Look Jason, do you really think someone like Rachel could ever be with someone like you?" I swallowed hard Carl was getting to me. "You are bad, you break the law on the daily, and you want to have a future with this girl. You really think she can accept you."
"Get out." I said sternly. Carl looked at me then his eyes went to the food on the table, and he noticed the two plates.
"She is here. Isnt she? Where is she? Your hiding her from me, or are you hiding her from the truth Jason!"
"I said get out!" I yelled this time.
"Alright. Enjoy your breakfast with her Jason, who knows when it will be the last one." Carl threatened and I swung up my arm to punch him, but I stopped myself, and Carl didn't even flinch, he knew I could never do that, especially to him. "Goodbye Jason." He said and walked out. I slammed the door shut and turned to my room door. I went to the door and opened it.
"What's this?" Rachel said holding a x-arang.
"Its nothing" and I snatched it from her. She crossed her arms.
"You break the law on the daily?" She asked getting suspicious.
"Rachel please..."
"I knew it was something illegal, and I am just so stupid to think this could work." Rachel said walking fast to the guest room. She was putting all her clothes and items into her bag mumbling how stupid she was.
"Rachel stop, and just give me a minute to explain."
"Explain what? Do you kill people Jason? Are you an assassin? Are you going to kill me, cause if you don't..." She paused and gulped and looked down at her and she seemed scared. "It sure does seem Carl will." I let out a laugh. "You think this is funny! Well lets see how funny it is when I walk out that door!." Rachel said
"Rachel no. I'm sorry for laughing its just I would never kill you, i love you, and Im not an assassin, and I would never let Carl or anyone harm you." Rachel just stared at me dumbfounded.
"You love me?" Opps did that just come out.
"Ummm I..." I scratched the back of my head.
"Just tell me the truth right here and right now. Please." I stood there knowing if i told her she could walk out that door, and if I didn't tell her she would walk out the door. So which is better. could or would. I sighed, and took Rachel's hand and guided her to my room. I tilted a book forward to reveal a closet. I typed in the code and there revealed my Red X suit.
"You are red x? You're the master thief? The famous one? The one whose steals from the museums? The one who... saved me." She said the last part quietly.
"Rachel it wasn't my plan to become a career criminal...It was survival." I said and she shook her head in shock and she just walked out of the room silently, and sat at the kitchen table and began eating her breakfast. I soon joined after locking the suit back up. We ate our breakfast in silence, but I was happy for it because she didn't leave she stayed.
"So now that I know, is Carl going to kill me." She asked breaking the silence and looking at her plate. I took my hand and placed it under her chin and turned her face towards me.
"I would never let that happen" She nodded, and it was back to silence... after I finished and she finished breakfast she took our plates to the kitchen to wash them I followed behind her and wrapped my arms around her.
"Are we okay."
"Yeah." was all she said. She stepped out of arms. "I think I'm going to head home now."
"I'll drive you."
"No, no i'm good. I think a walk will do me a good." I nodded knowing what she meant. She needed time to process everything. I mean she is going out with a criminal, thats a lot to process. I walked her to the door and she went down the step.
"No kiss, bye?" I asked sadly. Was this end between Rachel and I? I told her I loved her. I told her I am Red x.
"I'll kiss you later." She said not turning around and kept walking. I didn't want to push her so I accepted her answer and went back inside, and she did say later so that was a good sign.
