Claira shrugged and watched him walk back inside. She climbed higher and higher in the trees, entering the hidden treehouse she and Georgie had built when she was eight. Grabbing a dusty pillow and blanket from the corner, she laid down, deciding it was the best place to spend the night.

(Lol)
Elisabeth, aware she was being followed, turned the corner and walked quickly in the wrong direction for some time.

Andion wasn’t stupid, he knew what she was doing and stopped following, going the other way. He knew this place like the back of his hand and hoped to cut her off at some point.

Isobel is stomping around the halls, cursing Xavier as she went. She was unbelievably mad at him.

Xavier walked the halls and in the distance saw Isobel walking down the hall and quickly hid. "Shoot." He didn't want to see her right now, well, more like she didn't want to see him. She would definitely kill him this time of she saw him wandering around.

Isobel's nostrils flared when she saw him walking around. "Xavier Burne, what the hell do you thi k you're doing out of bed?!" She stomped her way over to him. "Has it not crossed your mind that you're seriously injured and that if you keep this up you're going to lose function in your arm?!"

"Whoa, I must have been sleep walking." He turned around so he wasn't facing her. "I best be on my way now." How did she see me, it's like she has some kind of Xavier radar on her.

"Sleep walkers just mutter nonsense to themselves. Nice try though." She grabbed his uninjured arm. "What the hell are you doing out of bed?" She repeated her question.

"Would you believe me if I said I was possessed?" He smiled innocently. He still didn't understand why she cared so much. Was his injury somehow going to ruin her life? Although, he wasn't going to lie, having someone care wasn't that bad.

She gave him the "are you stupid" look. "What were going to do is, I'm going to take you back to the infirmary and you're going to stay there. If I have to sit on you to make you stay then that's what I'll do alright?"

"Isobel, I though we talked about this." Xavier shook his head. "I'm in love with someone already." He thought back to the moment in the tree. "Even if she doesn't feel the same." He mumbled looking at the ground. Stay positive Xavier. Its hard to stay positive when your heart basically just got crushed.

"You're unbelievable!" She threw her and up in exasperation. "Here I am, concerned about your health, since you obviously aren't and someone needs to worry, and you think this is the right time to start joking?! I swear to god I'm going to kill you one day."

"Okay.. I get it come on, let's go." He started down the hall towards the medical room. He was sure Isobel was going to follow him to make sure he actually was going to where he needed to be.

Isobel followed behind him, glaring at his back. She was muttering about how foolish and stupid he was, loud enough so that he could hear.

How much is she actually going to call me stupid? "I get it Isobel I'm stupid. I just wanted to spend some time with Claira." Not like Isobel is going to care about that, she'll probably just call him stupid even more.

"Well you could have spent time with her I'm the infirmary. If she's the one for you and all that, she would have made sure you stayed put. And now I have to pick up the job and make sure you dont render yourself completely useless."

"Claira is a busy girl, she doesn't have enough time to come to the infirmary to see me." He entered the door and got back in his bed and sighed. Now he is going to be stuck here for a while.

"The right person will make time for you." Isobel sat down in the chair next to his bed. She was going to stay there until he got released, to make he didn't leave before then.

(Claira is casually sleeping in an empty abandoned treehouse.

In case anyone was wondering.)

"You mean…. someone like you?" He grinned. Isobel was way to much fun to mess with. Xavier enjoyed her reactions very much.

Isobel snorted. "Why would I ever want to be with someone as stubborn and idiot as you are?" She picked at her nails. "But I am serious Xavier. The right person won't drag you around everywhere. They make time for you."

"Are you hinting that Claira might not be the right one? And for your information I'm a joy to be around and I keep things fun, so you would be missing out, and I'm not always like this you know, I am serious when I need to be." Xavier looked over at Isobel. Was she seriously going to sit here with him the whole time? Because it will give people the working impression and she obviously hates the idea of being with him, so it might cause some trouble for the both of them.

"I'll let you figure out on your own if Claira isn't the one for you. I was just giving some advice. I do have some experience." She rolled her eyes at him. "When have you ever been serious? I have only ever seen you act like a thirteen-year-old boy." She glared at him.

"Then you don't know me as well as you think, Isobel." He snapped back. He hated when people took him lightly and thought of him as some joke. People could go ask Andion or Victoria, they know how hard he tries to keep this place together. He maybe doing it under the table so most people don't know how he really is, but he doesn't take his job lightly. "If I wasn't serious do you think I would have this injury, no. Its because I was serious that I stayed behind to fight to keep everyone safe, that includes you."
