The knock at the door made John jump; he wasn't used to visitors since he had moved out of the double room he'd shared with Bobby for 4 years
The knock at the door made John jump; he wasn't used to visitors since he had moved out of the double room he'd shared with Bobby for 4 years. After the 'cure' had been announced most of the kids at the academy had been pulled out by there parents in an attempt to have them 'cured'. The thought of such a substance made him feel sick, how could you turn down your birth-right? The upside was this left a lot of rooms empty and the offer had been posted on the notice board in the rec. room to have single rooms for anyone who wished, John had jumped at the chance, ever since Bobby had been going out with Rouge there friendship had been rocky and when Bobby had stolen his lighter last semester John had snapped, smacked Bobby and left for a room of his own.
'Maybe its Bobby, maybe he finally broke up with that bint he calls a girlfriend' John shook himself, where had that come from? Since when did he care about Ice and Rogue? God he was going senile on his own.
John had become somewhat a recluse over the last few months no one talked to him and he saw no reason why he should waste his time on fruitless attempts at conversation with the rest of the upper class, all he did was save there asses in danger room sessions anyway.
"Yeah, who is it n what d'ya want?" he yelled at the door.
Jubilee poked her head round the door "what's got you in such a good mood?" was he sarcastic comment of the day, before John could answer however she said "Never mind, I don't really care. I just came up to tell you Professor Xavier wants to see you ASAP."
On the floor below Robert Drake was fuming about his girlfriend to Kitty Pryde, the closest thing he had to a male friend at the minute, not that he would tell her that she would kill him.
"She's just such a control freak, I mean if I didn't love her so much I'd have broken up with her ages ago!" as he trailed of into muttering Kitty hugged him.
"Don't worry about it it's just her way of showing she loves you." Kitty stated matter of factly "probably…" she added lamely.
"Thanks Kitty that helped soo much" he replied sarcastically, with a raised eyebrow.
"Well sorry for trying to help!" Kitty shot over her shoulder as she stormed out the room, not even bothering to use the door, rather to phase through it, just exacerbating how mad she was. She did not noticing the figure standing in the shadows by the door.
As she stormed of down the corridor of the boy's dorms John stepped out of the shadows by his old room. 'So trouble in paradise' he thought as he left to go see the Professor.
Standing outside the door to Xavier's office was more daunting than John had anticipated, while he stood there wondering whether or not to knock the Professor's voice sounded through his head 'are you coming in or not John?'
"That's rather intrusive Professor" John said as he opened the door, accepting the mental question as an invitation. "So, you wanted to see me?"
"Yes, I wanted to talk to you about your increasing independence and lack of socialization with other students. You may not see this as a problem but you are increasing any risk factor there is in any of the danger room programs by no communicating with your fellow students and consequently increasing the risk too other students who are in the same training regime as yourself, so I must ask you to change your social habits toward your fellow danger room students or stop participating in the sessions." John stood in shock. His first thoughts were how one person could say all that in a monotone voice before the implications sank in.
"WHAT?!" He yelled, "How the hell do you get to say that I'm putting people at risk?! What happened to 'the danger room is completely safe, nothing can go wrong?!' YOU FUCKING HIPOCRIT!!" He shouted as he slammed the office door on his way out.
'John, please, I did not mean to offend you…' the Professor tried to get John back.
"Stay out of my head!" John bellowed back down the corridor toward the office he'd just left, with that he was left in peace with several unsavoury thoughts about the founder of the academy.
Next day:
"John, the Professor wanted me to tell you he wants you to move back in with Bobby." Ororo Munroe stuck her head into John's room without knocking.
"What? Why?" were the only things John was capable of saying as he instinctively reached for his lighter.
"He said something about how you two used to be friends you might help him through his break–up with Marie. Anyway pack your stuff your moving." And with that she walked out the room, not before the smirk had spread across John's face.
'well then time for a little fun.' he thought as he slipped his lighter into his back pocket and took a few bin bags from his cupboard and started to shovel clothes it to them.
Bobby sighed as he walked back to his dorm room; all he wanted was a shower and sleep so he was already pulling of his t-shirt when he stepped through the door to his room and stopped dead as he saw John looking at him with a raised eyebrow. Needless to say he turned white and took the temperature down about 5 degrees with him.
"Shit. Bobby it's not like I haven't seen you topless before." John smiled, while his breath clouded in front of him "also I'm fire remember so calm down your freezing my nuts off over here."
"What the hell are you doing back here?!" The shock was evident in Bobby's voice which made John wonder why the Professor hadn't told him that he was moving back in.
"The prof. thought I was being a bit to anti-social in my room so he put me back in here, oh, he also thought I could help with the break-up."
"Huh?" was all the answer John got "Me 'n' Rouge haven't broken-up."
"That lying son of a…" John was interrupted by a knock at the door.
"hay Bobby, you wanna go for a walk or somefin'?" Rouge walked through the door and did a double take "wha' the hell is he doin' in here?!"
"Hi to you too." John said as sweetly as he could when faced with her.
"Whatever, come on Bobby were goin'." And with that John was left alone in there room. Again. He sighed.
"Just like old times." He said to no-one in particular, laying back on his old bed, and taking out his lighter and messing with it.
"Okay, okay, calm down Rouge it's not like I knew he was back either." Bobby said trying desperately to calm his girlfriend down, as she stormed through the grounds of the mansion.
"But it was his choice to get a room of 'is own! Why'd they have ta move 'im back in wit you?" She said with a pleading look "Any way they know how badly we get on an' 'dat I'm in ya room a lot these days, they must 'ave known we'd run in to each other eventually." The Sothern accent becoming more prominent as she got angrier, Bobby just gave up as Rouge started to sulk.
"You could take it up with the professor but you probably wouldn't get very far." Bobby said "If it was his decision to move John back in with me then he's probably there to stay."
"Your right Bobby we'll just 'ave to find somewhere else." Rouge sighed "still annoyin' though."
"Yeah," Bobby chuckled "He always was."
It had taken awhile but Bobby was finally getting used to having John as a room-mate again. Not that he was happy about it though. Like the old days he way being dragged into John and Rouge's arguments over just about anything. He and John didn't spend much time together outside there room but when they both happened to be in it at the same time they talked about random things, if they were both in a good mood that is. If John was in a bad mood he just sat and bitched about Rouge and if Bobby was in a bad mood John was usually nowhere to be seen.
"Night Rouge." Bobby stood at the door to the room "Yes I'll talk to you tomorrow at breakfast. No I'm not just saying it, okay goodnight." The last was said very pointedly as he finally closed the door. "Okay she is driving me nuts!!" he burst out to the empty room.
"Break-up with her then." John's voice came from behind Bobby, making him jump off the bed.
"Gezz, next time tell me your in, okay." Bobby said to John's head which was sticking round the door to the bathroom, dripping water on the floor.
"Urgh, yes Mom." John said in a patronising tone. "Anyway how she driving you nuts?" he said with a grin.
"Oh, just shut up will ya, I'm not in the mood!" Bobby snipped as he threw a pillow at John's head. It missed its target as John had quickly withdrawn his head into the bathroom and shut the door.
The cars on both sides of the street were blazing wrecks, not that John was helping on that front Bobby thought, as another fire ball went flying past him hitting one of the advancing mutants.
"Great." he muttered as one of the many jumping mutants went flying toward Rouge, he shot a blast of ice toward the mutant who fell out the sky and shattered by Logan and Piotr, who had needed to change to avoid injury.
"One down, a hundred to go." John said as he ran past Bobby with Kitty in tow. He jumped toward one of the mutants holding onto Kitty, went straight through it and threw a fire ball at its back, as it was engulfed in flames Kitty smacked him round the head as she shuck him off and ran at another mutant who was about to attack Storm from behind.
While all this was going on Logan had been knocked to the ground with a foot of metal pipe shoved through his stomach, before he could remove it Rouge came flying at him and the pipe went through her leg, as Logan yanked it out of them both Rouge's forehead fell forward and rested on his, causing the wound to heal.
"Thanks." She said and swiftly kissed him on the mouth. Bobby just stared, everything around him started to freeze over, the first anyone noticed was when one of John's fire balls froze in midair and instead of engulfing the mutant in flames it knocked him out cold.
"Wha'?" John stared at Bobby, who was obviously loosing control of his powers "Hay, Storm we got a major problem over here!" he shouted. She turned toward him and didn't even need to ask as the burning debris around Bobby had started to form stalagmites of glittering ice.
As the room shifted back to its original form nothing around the angered teen would change the ice pillars had reached the ceiling and were starting to spread across both the roof and floor.
"Okay, everyone out. NOW." Storm shouted. "We'll just have to wait for him to calm down." She added to Logan as everyone filed out of the danger room and Storm locked the door behind them.
"What was all that about?" Kitty asked to the group at large. Everyone responded with some variations of a shrug.
All bar Logan, who had disappeared.
