The Next Avengers

Chapter 37: Cody?

Then why are you still holding the bloody tissues to your nose, Claire says. just in case it starts to bleed again. the take the tissues away from your nose then, Eric says. No! Why, Jake ask. Never mind that just do it, he says. Or you can tell us where you really went, Claire says. Fine, I yell. I just walked down to Fury's office. Why, Jake ask. Just to pick up some files. Then where are they, Eric ask. I dropped them of in my room. Why would you walk all the way from Fury's office to your room and then here, Claire ask. I didn't feel like carrying them around. Bailey, what your saying doesn't make sense, Claire says. What ever, I say as I walk away.

I was surprised Jake or Claire didn't run after me. Oh well. I walk down to Fury's office and really do get the files. I start to walk back to my room.

As I walk down the hallway Claire steps out in front of me. Are those files you are holding, she ask sarcastically. I try to step around her but she steps in my way. Ok, fine! Yes, they are files. I understand you not wanting to tell Jake or Eric what you really did but I'm your sister and I want to know, she says. I dodged her and start walking again.

She graves my arm. What is going on, she ask. I will tell you but not here. Ok then where will you tell me, she says. Later tonight out in the roof.

We start walking back to our rooms together. When Cody walks by with his bags. Oh crap, I say in my head. You got Cody kicked of the team didn't you, Claire asked. Shhh! I glance over to see if Cody turned around. He was gone. I start walking again. Yes, yes I did. But you can't tell Jake or Eric that I did, I yell in her face. Ok, as she leans back.

I walk into the kitchen to find Jake and Eric sitting at the table. I open the fridge get a water and close the door. I run in to Jake as I turn. Bailey what I'd going on. I turn to go out the other door but Eric stops me. He says nothing. I turn back to the other door and try to slip by Jake he just steps in my way.

He graves my arm. Let go of me, I say. He does giving me a wired look. Bailey what is up, he ask. I stop at the door. It can't be as bad as you think it is. I turn my head to the side just so I can see his face. His big brown eyes are looking right at me. Fine, you don't have to tell me but when your ready I will listen.
