He was grateful to find out that the door wasn’t locked when he went to turn the mob it had just been closed. She had seemingly disappeared was quite obvious that she didn't want to see or deal with him at the moment. It wasn't till he saw a huge pile of clothes already on the bed. He knew that this was going to be the fight of his life time. She wanted to leave. She had absolutely no idea that he had been talking about her and he didn't know how long he’d been talking and she over heard.
When he could see Kelly again he saw that she looked like she was completely defeated. She wouldn't make eye contact with him at all and she wouldn't even look in his direction. She was at the point of searching for something to throw the clothes and so she could leave. There was a lot of other things that she had put on the bed as well.
Benton knew that he had to act quickly and he needed to act right now. He walked over to where she was and placed his hand on her sh

Benton had learned to be able to gauge her moods just by the way that she looked and when he walked into his own apartment, he was surprised to find her there about ready to scream at the curtains. During the day she like to open them to let the sunlight in. That was one of the ways that he could tell if she was having a bad day or not because if they were open, she didn't really have a headache but if they were closed and it was still early enough that the light was out and then she was getting the beginning of a migraine. Over the past few weeks and she'd been released from the medical Bay her headaches had been getting better but at the same time she did still suffer from the migraines from time to time when things got to be a little overwhelming.

The two of them sat there looking at each other for what seemed to be a lifetime. He knew that she still had to adjust to what he was saying and honestly at the moment he didn't know if even though it was gonna get through to her. Benton knew that he had to do something. He had to make something easier for her and he was trying to quickly figure out what that could be. He was supposed to be a huge inventor and one of the most influential people of their lifetime but yet he was scared that he was going to make the wrong decision when it came to her, and it would push her away. This is when he realized that he had no idea how to handle women in general.He had given her something to distract her and in the possibility of that being the thing that set her off he wasn't exactly sure what to say. She had begun to pour herself into the research of finding people to donate money to. However, he also saw that there was a huge downside to that and that was that people di

The next morning when he woke up, Benton knew that something was very wrong. Though there was nothing that was going on in the building, he just had the feeling that something was going to happen that day, and it was not going to be pretty. He had no idea where it was going to come from or anything like that. He looked over to Kelly, who was lying next to him on the bed, and decided that for the first time, he wasn't gonna go down to the core early and sit there and stare at it for a few hours trying to figure out how it was going to work eventually when he could figure out the new problems that had arose. This morning he was going to stay in bed for as long as he possibly could with her right next to him. The night before, the two had the rest of the night to get everything out in the open between them. Benton listened to every one of her ideas and everything that she had figured out the past few days on her own. She had come to quite a few new

Everybody in the office is cleared away for them to be in watching the monitors. That's when he saw his sister and realized that she had quite a few problems. The first thing was she must have stumbled on a Hornet's nest because she was swatting at the air and looked like she was fighting with something they couldn't exactly see. Either that or she was on some kind of drugs which he didn't really think was a possibility because his sister had always been one of the ones who was always lecturing people on everything. Next to her, she had an entire bag of things that they could see, and there were a few things that were spilling out, and he was beginning to wonder if he was trying too hard to make sense of what was right in front of him. That's when he realized that his sister was trying to set him up for some kind of tabloid scheme or something that she would take pictures of and then send in. To him, that seemed the most logical explanation of what his sister was doin

A few hours later dressed in I'll pull over shirt and some khaki pants he seemed a lot more relaxed security guards reme After Kelly woke up from her mid-morning nap that Benton had left her in. She was surprised to find him sitting at his desk off in the corner of the room. For some reason, that seemed to trigger a series of memories of being in school and doing her work pretty much in the same place in her own house. She had enjoyed going to school and learning about different things so much so that most people thought she was going to become a teacher. She loved learning. That was one thing that she could never get away from, and it always seemed to be there. If there was something that she could learn when she wanted to know about it. She had a slight smile on her face as she managed to get another cup of coffee from the little kitchenette. When she sat down at the table, and she looked at him, and he was busy dealing

A few hours later, dressed in a pullover shirt and some khaki pants, he seemed a lot more relaxed security guards remembered him being earlier in the morning. He had a grin on his face that nobody had ever seen before. Though no one was going to actively say anything to him about how he was acting. It was like a new person was in front of them. He nodded to the security guards as he walked in the door and then looked at his sister, who was sitting at the table, and she was still fuming. The look on her face was priceless when he walked in. She was almost pouting like she was five years old again. “Did you get stung by any of the bees?” Benton asked as he sat down at the head of the table and looked at his older sister, who was visibly angry. Now that he was in there and making a joke about it, she was even more furious that she had been there waiting for him for a few hours. She had no idea that he had actually just made the first contribution to the clause be

Benton smiled at her, and she knew that something was going to be coming out of his mouth soon enough that was going to end her memories from her childhood. He almost looked jealous of her memories and of some of the things that she had done. He knew that they had grown up completely different, and he had already accepted the fact that she was not like him at all. But the jealousy was still there because she had a real childhood where is he had been locked away in a compound pretty much. “I think I should tell you a few things about the way that I grew up so you can kind of understand where I'm coming from,” Benton said with a sigh as he almost unceremonially flopped in the chair at the kitchen table. “When I was born, it was after my father had been told that he wasn't going to have any children other than Penny. So, after all the tests were confirmed that I was his child, he found it necessary to pretty much keep me locked away. I was separate

A few days later, while Benton was in the laboratory, he received an emergency text from Kelly, which was slightly unnerving. He had set up Kelly's phone well, she was starting her recovery process in the apartments to have an SOS button that all she had to do was hit it, and he would come running. He knew that she didn't ever want to press that button, so when the alert came to his phone and was echoing throughout the entire base, he knew something was seriously wrong. Kelly wouldn't have accidentally pressed the button, or she would have, and she would have immediately sent something right afterward. He made his way back to the apartments very quickly, knowing that that's where she was as she was going over more files for possible donations. Sometimes she would use her phone to check personal profiles of people and also news stories to see if she could easily verify some of the details in some of the campaigns. However, the SOS button was something completely differ
