"I'll use what ever fucking language I want Callighan, I'm tired of you trying to keep me from moving up in ranks!" Kyle took a threatening step toward Callighan.
I jumped from my chair and moved back.
I didn't know whether I should intervene or sit back for the show but I did know that something was about to go down.
I stared back and forth at the pair with wide surprised eyes. I've never seen such a look of absolute pure hatred that Callighan was currently giving Kyle. Callighan was really big on respecting people older than you and old fashion things like that and he's gotten mad at me for a few slip ups in my language a couple of times but never like this. I could basically see the fumes leaving Callighan, his face was slowly getting redder and he looked about ready to strangle Kyle.
"Kyle I'm willing to let that go if you turn around and walk out of this room right now" Callighan said trying to keep a calm composure but anyone would be able to see that he was anything but calm.
"No Callighan, I'm not a coward like you are. I'm tired of you treating me differently from the rest of the scientist in this lab and I know what it's about, I know why you won't let me move up a rank, because your afraid Callighan" as he spoke a dry smirk crossed his features and Callighan's eyes widened and he shrunk back.
"Kyle don't you dare go there" he spat
"Oh what? Your afraid of your precious little experiment finding about your dirty little secret?" Kyle continued. All of the blood from Callighan's face drained and he looked at Kyle with a horrified expression, his mouth hanging wide open. It seemed that Kyle hit a sensitive spot.
"Hey, how about we all just calm down and just relax for a second.." I said attempting to diffuse the situation, but one look from Kyle and I shut my mouth and continued to watch their stare down.
"Kyle you don't know what your talking about, e-everything I've done is to keep him safe" Callighan's calm demeanor broke in seconds as he looked at Kyle with sad eyes. Whatever they were talking about must have been really important to Callighan from the he reacted.
"I DON'T UNDERSTAND!?" Kyle threw his hands up in the air in exasperation "WHAT THE F-" Kyle stopped himself and put his face in his hands before taking a deep breath and looking back up at Callighan, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"So your telling me that sending someone to some place to try and "cure" some fake disease is too keep some safe!? You've got to be kidding me!" he looked up at Callighan with a raised eyebrow.
Callighan shook his head at Kyle like he was a young child "Kyle it's not some fake disease, it's very real, just like I cured you i'm going to cure him too"
just as Kyle was about to open his mouth and most likely yell at Callighan, Who I remember to be Chris and Corrian ran into the room causing him to instead snap his towards the pair who were shaking their head at Kyle as if they already knew what was going on and what Kyle was going to say. Corrian then made her way towards me and I noticed her outfit was different from the comfortable sweatpants and t-shirt she was in early, now she was wearing a lab coat like Chris and Callighan.
She smiled at me sweetly and held out a hand to me, the arguing still going on in the background with Chris trying to calm Kyle down and Callighan now telling Chris to get him out of his office. I took her hand and she led me out of the room making sure that Chris was following her with Kyle being dragged behind. I looked back at him and it seemed that his eye was glowing and he looked livid.
Once we all made it outside Kyle shrugged Chris off and marched out of the building. Instead of following after him Corrian and Chris plopped onto the nearest couch and motioned for me to do as well.
"What the hell was that? what were they talking about? who's he? what did he mean by a fake disease? Is Kyle sick?" I started spitting out questions and when I was finished Corrian chuckled amused by my curiousness.
"Chill out Miles, your asking more questions than I can answer" She laughed while saying. I felt my cheeks grow hot and I could assume I looked like a cherry.
"Ugh your just so adorable I could just squish you" she started to squish my cheeks which didn't help with my blushing and I looked to Chris for help but he just glared at me and turned over to talk to a blonde lady that I think works in the clinic, I've taken a few too many visits there.
Corrian sighed and leaned by into the couch and looked at the ceiling as if thinking about what to say.
"Miles, there's a lot of things wrong with this place, i'm sure you know that, most of the problems are caused by Callighan. He has these strict ideas and philosophies that aren't right and these ideas have affected Kyle the most so he has a grudge against him. It's not my place to tell you about the details but just know that Callighan isn't a good guy" she finished with looking at me in the eyes as if searching for a slight hint that I understood. I nodded firmly and her serious look was replace with he usual goofy smile.
She started to leave but before she could I asked her the question I've been aching to know "Hey, are you a Kyle siblings or something?"
"Sadly we're twins" she winked at me and her and Chris got up and left me sitting with an extremely shocked face.
Of course I knew that they were related in some way but twins!? They were nearly the opposite of each other, Corrian was talkative and smiled a lot and I didn't even know anything about Kyle because all he does is frown.
While I was lost in thought Malachi waltz over to me with a wide shit eating grin. I watched as he walked over and I started to notice some things about him, he had curly dark brown hair, he had mocha colored skin but in some places his didn't have pigmentation.
He stood over me and I looked up into in caramel brown eyes that held pure mischief.
Sticking out his hand for me to shake he spoke "Listen we got off on the wrong foot, you see I was just having a bad day and took my anger out on you and for that i'm truly sorry. Let's start over, I'm Malachi"
Hesitantly I shook he hand and gave him my name making his grin grow even wider.
Why did I feel like I just shook hands with the devil?
I TOLD YOU I WAS GOING TO POST, I bet you thought I was going to forget and then not posy for another few months. Well you were wrong. I'm really proud of the fact that I actually took my time and wrote this chapter and actually got it out in a timely manner, I hope I can keep this up.
So what do you think Malachi's true intentions are?
