Chapter Ninety two
I immediately go beet red with embarrassment and regret. I want to argue but I know it’s pointless and Cyrus has already made up his mind about me anyway.
“What do you want me to do?”
“Just stay here and familiarize yourself with the room but don’t get too comfortable, you’re only going to be here for a few.” Cyrus says as he gets out of the room.
After a while Margret comes in and greets me with a tight smile that doesn’t quite reach her eyes, so I know she is not happy about something although I have a few hints. She comes with my clothes and some of my things and start placing them in the bathroom and Cyrus’s closet. When she leaves after cleaning up the room while I took the time to put on something comfy and having made no conversation with me the whole time, I get up and decide to go down for breakfast since I am hungry and I didn’t get to eat last night.
When my feet meet the floor my mother in law rushes in telling me I should save my strength and asking what I need while Cyrus puts the breakfast tray for me on the bed. Just as his mother is fussing over me, he gets a call and after exchanging a few words he hurries out the door.
“There has been an emergency at the warehouse, I have to go.” Cyrus says as he comes back into the room while pocketing his phone.
“I hope it’s nothing serious, I’ll just stay here with Bella until the doctor arrives.” His mother answers.
“He can’t make it today, there has been a fire and people were inside who are taken to the clinic. It’s going to be hands on I am afraid.”
“Okay then, well just go to the hospital.”
“No. mom look, just let Bella have some rest and I will come back later and take her to be checked. She is doing a lot better already.”
“Okay son whatever you say. You should hurry though, time is ticking.” His mother answers and Cyrus studies her for a minute before relenting
“I think I forgot the sugar when I brought Bella breakfast. I don’t mean to bother you but do you mind heading down to get it while I get dressed up?”
“Of course dear.” His mother answers too sweetly as she walks out the door.
Cyrus goes to dressing up before he comes back to give me a warning before he leaves. “Tell her your feeling better and you have taken some pills so you need to rest until I get back. Get rid of her this morning, I don’t want her here longer than she has two and I don’t trust the two of you together.”
“She is your mother, not an enemy. Stop talking about her like that.”
“I love her but I don’t want her around you. Don’t try to use my mother against me Bella, you won’t like the outcome. What you have done with Cullen will look like a walk in the park.” He threatens looking me straight in the eye and I get the massage, he is serious and it is a promise.
When he leaves his mother comes upstairs and coaxes me to eat, I feel terrible about lying to her and my situation right now but I try putting on a brave face. She then tells me about my father in laws birthday party and I am so disappointed I missed it, it was the first time I did miss it, I remind myself to get him a present for the next time I see him. After I have had breakfast, I tell Cyrus’s mother what Cyrus wanted me to say and feign to be tired and try to get some sleep.
A few minutes later when I wake up my mother in laws seems to be taking inventory of Cyrus’s room, I thought she had already left. Cyrus won’t like this.
“Hey your awake, did I make too much noise?”
“Not at all, I guess I have just been sleeping a lot lately.”
“Mmh! How are you feeling?”
“I feel great actually; you don’t have to worry about me anymore. I’ll be fine.”
“Speaking like Cyrus. Which reminds me, how do you like your bedroom?” She asks looking around. I look around too not noticing the problem.
“It’s okay.”
“It looks too masculine. It screams bachelor pad, haven’t you thought of redecorating it when you moved in? There is no sign of you in it but I could tell you designed the guest room because it was so you.” She is quiet again before she says “I know what we should do, we should decorate the bedroom. It will serve as a nice surprise.”
“I don’t know if that’s a good idea. I will have to get Cyrus’s approval he….”
“His approval? It’s your bedroom more than it is his. You spend more time here than he does and you deserve to be in a place you love.”
“I am okay mom, really.”
“And while we are doing that Margret can oversee the whole thing while we go to the hospital. I am not leaving until I know what is wrong with you.”
“It’s okay mom, Cyrus is taking me later when he gets home.”
“And when will that be? Come on wake up and get dressed before the designer comes in and we can finish off with that before we leave. Okay?”
“Uh..okay.” I want to argue but I know she won’t listen to me and I really want to get out of the house.
When I get downstairs there is a commotion since the guards didn’t want to let the designer and her assistant in until Cyrus approved and he was not taking his calls. My mother in law pulled rank and got her inside, she showed us a few things while we told her what we were hoping for and left a scowling Margret to oversee the changes.
Getting out the door was something I had been thinking about and I wasn’t surprised when the guards stopped me from leaving. My mother in law though was another story altogether.
