this conversation could be between any of the x-men: evo characters. well, not logan or ororo or mystique or magneto, but any of the kids really. its kinda sad, but I dunno. I like it.



I know.

were you scared?

I'm always scared.

are you scared now?

*nod*

of us?

*nod*

why?

coz you might just ditch me, like everyone else does.

youre afraid of losing us?

*nod*

we wouldn't put you through that. I wouldn't put you through that.

you wouldn't?

no. why would we? youre one of us now. this is where you belong.

I know. its just that-

you want to trust us but youre afraid of getting hurt?

*nod*

why?

every single time that I've trusted someone, every friend I thought I had.. they just turned on me.

we're not gonna do that.

why?

coz we want you here. we need you. you're the one who kept us all together. if you werent here, I doubt that we would be either. we would have given up a long time ago. now we got somethin to live for.

you really mean that?

yeah, course we do. you're family. we love you… I love you. you know that, don't you?

*nod*

and we'll always love you.

I know. and I want to love you too. I want to. and I think I do, but I just don't want to get hurt anymore.

you wont get hurt. we'll protect you. you're safe with us. I promise. I'll take care of you. always.

I know.

are you tired?

*nod*

every night im afraid to go to sleep, afraid to close my else.

you don't have to be afraid anymore… im here, and im never gonna let anything hurt you.

will you be here when I wake up?

yes. im not gonna leave your side. every morning when you wake up I'll be there.
