When we landed, I was so tense that it would take surgery to unclench my genetically modified hands.
My shoulder brushed Iggy's as lightly as possible but we both jumped about a foot in the air.
Silently, All five pairs of flock eyes landed on me.
My eyes met Fangs and I quickly looked away, burrowing my hands into my eyes.
I was aware of someone-Rogue-taking my arm and pulling my gently down the ramp.
She showed me around campus, introducing me to students on occasion.
So far, I'd met a Piotr, a Bobby, (Whom seemed to be the object of Rogue's interest) a Kitty, (Who seemed to be pretty nice, to small to be an Eraser at least.) and a Logan.
The voice Rogue used when she said Logan's name held disappointment, but also admiration.
"And this is John." She said as we walked up to guy, about my age, maybe a little older, flicking a lighter with a shark design on it.
He looked me up and down and I could feel myself blushing. For what reason, I have no idea.
Finally he looked up at me and nodded his head.
"Hey John! Your supposed to come down to the Danger doom with Piotr and I." Bobby panted as he jogged up.
"C'ya Rogue, Ah-" He looked at Rogue then me then Rogue again.
"Max," I blurted before Rogue had the chance.
He smirked, chuckling to himself and walked away after Bobby.
"That's John for you," She shrugged and I giggled.
Giggled!
What was this mutant school doing to me?
