Forever, Mitchell - Episode 32

 

"You don't want toast?"

Xavier asks again and I shake my head, snuggling into the bed.

"You haven't had a bite since yesterday Mitchell, wanna tell me what's wrong?"

"I don't know, my stomach just hurts"

"Want me to tell Lucy to make you some broth? help you get back your appetite"

I think this over.

"Are you going to join me?"

"Yes Mitchell"

He says and I nod.

I close my eyes and drift again, I hate this bed, the one at the main house that is.

We came back here when I became sick yesterday, Xavier didn't want to leave me alone in the house since he will be going to work.

I feel like roadkill, my sinuses hurt and all I want to do is sleep.

Later I feel my body raised from the bed and I know my broth is ready, although I have no appetite I'm going to try to eat, that's gonna get Xavier off my case.

He sets me down on the dinning chair and I see that all his siblings are present.

It's been 2 months since that incident with Tyler and I havent seen him since then. He's in front of me now and instead of feeling anxious I just nod at him.

"You okay grams?"

Bryant asks and I nod.

"You look like roadkill"

He continues and I throw a piece of bread at him.

"You look like mum did when she was gonna have Valli"

Bryant says absently, using jam on his bread but every one in the room freezes.

Even the staff, they all turn to me.

Bryant raises his head and looks at everyone before turning to me.

"Ohh, you didn't know you were pregnant? I mean you look fat and also it isn't farfetched, from the amount of s*x you and Xavier have a day"

"Shut up Bryant"

Tyler scolds, nodding at Valli .

"What? I know what s*x is, I'm being thought s*x Ed."

Valli says, sipping her broth with a spoon.

"All of you shut up"

Xavier says and we all do.

"First of all, Valli, you are banned from saying the word s*x in this house, secondly, Bryant, stop picking on my wife, thirdly, Tyler I hope to hell you've gotten over your crush on her, if by chance this is true, I don't want you breathing close to her with any of your residual feeking"

He says, holding Tyler in a stare

. Tyler nods, going back to his meal and i Joe he just lied, but he's going to try.

"Good, Mitchell.. Finish your broth, I'm going to call a doctor"

He says getting up to make his call.

I turn to Bryant and I bug my eyes out, he just shakes his head and throw a bread crumb at me.

Xavier Knox

This guy... He's lucky... I'm in a good mood. I've been In a good recently, I think that's probably the reason why this scrap of a human thinks it's right to do his work half-assed.

"Sirrr...."

I turn to my secretary.

"Make sure he clears out his office today, get someone to his position by tomorrow"

"Yes sir"

Kim Says, writing down the information and turning to old Gabe who thinks passing his work his subordinates and getting the fat paycheck is the way to go.

I would have overlooked this who charade if the fool did not loose a multi-billion dollar deal.

He begins to apologise but I just send Kim a look and she understands, my phone rings and it's bambi.

"Hey"

She says as way of greeting, her voice high and breathless.

"What are you doing Mitchell?"

"I'm going to go see Kenny... Do you know where my pink flats are?"

She asks, her voice far-off, telling me she's dressing.

"I told you not to move from the house today didn't I?"

"I'm bored out of my brain Xavier, it's enough work now that I can't fit into any of my dress, you don't get to tell me not to move" "Mitchell..."

I start but she sniffles and I stop.

She crys at the drop of an hat these days, she's 5 months and in her second trimester and she's looking as big as.... Full stop right there.

She hates how she looks and have apparently devoted her time to making me jealous and mad over the fact that she is still friends with the actor/shop owner.

"I'm tired of staying in doors ghostie"

She says and for the life of me I have no idea where she got that name from.

"Fine, go see the a*shole but take some guards with you"

"Okay"

She says, not even arguing about the insult.

"So do you know where my pink flats are?"

"You threw them out mitch, you said they hurt your legs"

I say and she groans disconnecting the call.

I shake my head going back to my work, my phone rings again after some time and it's her.

"Mitchell.."

"Xav.. Xavier.."

I sit up straight at the terror in her voice.

"What's wrong"

"Wallace..."

I clench my fingers, that bastard.

"He killed max Xavier, he hurt Kenny"

"Are you hurt?"

I ask.

"No, I'm at the hospital"

I immediately rise to my feet, Wallace is gonna die, but first I have to make sure my wife is okay.

AN

Bonjour! Happy Monday.

I think I've only learned how to greet in French. Lol
