***************************************************
It was late at night, when Nori walked into the kitchens for a bottle of water. She was sleepy but thirsty. When she opened the door she had expected the kitchens to be dark and empty. Instead, she found that the lights were on all the way and David on one of the high chairs. Nori bit her lip.
"Hi," she muttered. David looked up and grimaced.
"Hey," he muttered back and continued with his ice cream.
Nori sighed and went to the refrigerator and looked for a bottle. She heard the door opened and closed. For a moment, she thought David had left but then...
"Hey guys," David said in a more cheerful tone.
Nori looked up and saw Josh, Santo, Cessily, Victor, and Megan. All in their pajamas and all were tired.
"Couldn't sleep, either?" asked Victor.
"Nope." Nori answered.
"What kind of ice cream are you eating?" Megan asked David.
"Cookies 'n' Cream." he said.
The door opened, once more, and everyone turned around to see Sooraya stepping in.
"Dust!" Santo cheerfully exclaimed.
"Great!" Cess said. "Now all we need is Laura and Julian to wake up and we can have a little late night party."
"Alright," Sooraya said darkly. "I just need to find Laura first."
There was a long silence after that.
"What do you mean?" asked Nori.
"That's why I came here. I'm looking for Laura." Sooraya explained. "I woke up and she wasn't in her bed."
"She's probably in the Dan-"
Suddenly, there was a low rumble from upstairs. Everyone looked up to see the lights swinging back and forth. Then there sounds of something squeaking on the wooden floor above.
"Isn't that Julian's room?" asked Josh.
Within moments all of them were running or (in Megan's case) flying to Julian's room.
"Oh God! I hope he's okay!" cried cessily.
Once they got to the door, David was ready to knock on the door but Santo pushed out of the way.
"MOVE!" he shouted and, with all his force, knocked down the door completely. Inside was Julian standing with black boxers being his only piece of garment.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" he yelled. His eyes were neon green and he was sweating all over. Behind him was a pile of blankets on top of his bed.
"Are you okay?" Josh asked, ready to heal whatever mark Julian had.
"No, I'm not okay! You assholes smashed my door down!"
"We thought you were being atta-" But Megan was cut short by the arrival of the X-Men.
Julian's eyes turned from neon green to their usual sky blue when he saw Ms. Frost and Wolverine.
"What is going on here?" Cyclops asked sternly.
"I-um...well...I-" Julian stammered.
Everyone stared at him. Emma's eyes turned crystal white and Logan sniffed the air. Then their expressions of utter confusion changed into (for Emma) annoyance and (for Logan) pure rage. Julian became even more anxious. He backed away from the crowd and closer to the bed.
"I can explain." he pleaded.
"Explain what?" demanded Nori. "Purifiers could have come in and killed him!"
"Yes," said Emma, who was walking over to the foot of the bed and bended down as if to pick up something. "And in their attempt to kill him, they got so scared, one of them left their underwear they bought at Victoria's Secret."
And with that she held up black lacy panties. The confusion increased. Logan went to the pile of blankets and began to withdrew the blanket on top. It was then did everyone realized that underneath was only one other blanket that was covering a naked Laura.
"Hi." was all she said to the astonished spectators. Julian dropped down on the bed and put his hand to his face.
"Um... hi?" Victor said.
"Laura?!" Sooraya blurted out.
"Well...um" Megan said, trying to finish her sentence.
"This is awkward." finished Cess, who was trying so hard not to smile.
"Wow, X." said Nori.
"Damn, Keller." David muttered.
"Hellion! You stud!" Santo said jovially.
"Correction: dead stud." Josh snorted.
"Enough!" yelled Logan. He turned back to his clone and her new found lover. "You two: get dressed and meet me in the Danger Room, now."
And with that, he turned to leave, pushing everyone else out of the room. Julian got up and telekinetically placed his door back into its doorway.
"I am so dead." he muttered. Laura put her hand over his bare chest.
"They're not going to hurt you," she said. "I won't let them."
Julian smiled and pulled her in to a passionate kiss.
