Chapter 7 ~The Right Thing To Do

The tiger and the lion might be powerful, but the wolf doesn't preform in the circus ~Unknown

*****************

April's POV

"I'm horrible look at them their friendship is ruined" I cry as I look at James and Axel working on their project looking mighty uncomfortable.

"April" Marisa sighs "It was your idea to tell James to back off" she says while grabbing my hand.

"You're not helping" I whine

She sighs and gives me a weak smile "Let's look on the bright side at least Axel isn't falling more in love with James. At least now he can focus on what's important instead of developing feelings for someone he shouldn't" she says while going back to work.

"I don't like this Marisa we should have let them be. You know let things play out the way it's supposed to instead of taking matters into our own hands. We should let Axel experience his own mistakes and all of that jazz instead of dragging him off of the amazing roller-coaster known as life" I tell her.

She purses her lips "Lets just get back to work yeah" she offers

"Yeah" I mumble while picking up my pencil and go back to my worksheet.

*****************

I sigh as I sit on James bed I look around his room there's some paste on the wall obviously covering a whole that was not there when I was last here let me tell you that. James walks into his room and looks at me before groaning "You're always here" he whines.

I smirk "Let's go out tonight Jamesy" I say in a sing song voice

He scowls "No, and don't call me that" he grunts while going to his desk.

"Sir James please we must go out into the town and explore" I say dramatically as I throw myself onto his lap.

I look up at him and give him a cheeky smile he rolls his eyes and pushes me off of his lap "I'm busy I don't have time to go into town" he says while doing whatever it is he does.

I stand up and dust myself off I grumbled under my breath and look out the window and into the forest. "Hey Jamesy what about a stroll through the woods, huh" I ask.

He stops what he was doing and goes tense before he straightens up "No" is all he answers.

"But why not" I whine as I sit back on his bed and look at him.

He turns around suddenly "Why are you here April" he asks suddenly

"What do you mean James. I'm always here" I tell him.

"I know that, but you know that I'm a gangleader. And you know I have enemies and yet you're still here knowing that it's dangerous" he says

I stop and think "I guess you're right. I know the risks but that's not going to stop me because you my best friend and best friends don't give up on each other" I say back not getting the point of this conversation. 

"Then why can't I be with Axel. It'll be just as dangerous but I'll protect him just like I'll protect you because I see you like my little sister and him well he'll be my boyfriend" he says looking at me with those emotionless grey eyes of his.

I sigh "It's not that I don't want you to be with him it's just-" my voice falls silent before I can say anything else.

"It's just what April" he asks sounding a bit desperate now.
