"Well, what do you expect? A strange guy turns up, and I'm meant to know that he's your date, jeez, it isn't my fault he looks like a criminal. He didn't even know remember your name" Jesse ducked as Emma aimed a good- natured swing at his head, grinning.
"He wasn't my type anyway, so I'll forgive you."
'Why thank you queen Emma.' Jess smirked, and then nonchalantly walked to the wall and phased out in order to go straight to his bedroom. Usually he used his abilities minimally, only when he absolutely needed to, but for the last few months nothing had happened around Sanctuary or the New Mutant Network, and he was relaxing a bit. In fact, he was even beginning to enjoy his abilities as much as he could, and had learnt the sanctuaries passageways seamlessly in order to make the most of his phasing. As for the dojo, he was the only one to give Shal a run for her money which made everything so much more exciting. He sighed a contented sigh, and realized that life definitely was great.
Collapsing on his chair he put his mobile on the desk and clicked on his mouse to recall any mails on his computer. That moment Shalimar's voice, restless at having nothing to do, came across, beckoning Jesse. Jess grinned, stood up, and positioned himself between his cabinets and bed, exhaled and walked through the wall to emerge under the stairs. It had taken him a while to perfect that one, as there wasn't much space and misjudging would be painful. Edging forward slowly, he kept an eye on Shalimar, who standing with her back to him on the stairs. He crept forward, ready to grab her unaware. However, Shalimar, deciding that he couldn't trick her again with this flipped gracefully from the second step and landed just behind Jesse, who had just emerged.
"Nearly," Jesse began, as Shal smirked and replied "I think not"
"You want to grab a bite to eat at the pizza place with Emma and me, now you scared her date away?" Shal asked grinning, flicking a few blonde hairs over her shoulder. "You're driving"
Jesse grimaced. It was a standing rule between them, that when one told the other to drive, they would also have to pay. Shal got him nearly every time within the month and Jess was beginning to wonder whether his money would hold out.
"Okay, but I have to get my keys, and tell Adam," Jess told her.
"I'll get your keys. You tell Adam," Shal said quickly, knowing that Jess would get permission much more easily than her.
Jess stuck his tongue out, and phased through the wall opposite, to arrive just outside Adams door, while Shal made her way to Jesse's room. She scowled humorously as she entered his immaculate room. "Why can't mine be like that," she muttered as she thought of her messy room, with clothes strewn everywhere. Going over to the desk where she knew the keys would be she caught site of a name on the screen. An email. She frowned, and looked around, not knowing what to do. She sat down quickly, and clicked on the name 'Noah Kilmartin' and scrolled down the mail. It was from Jesse's dad, and by the look of it, he was asking Jesse for forgiveness. She shook herself. It was none of her business what emails Jess got. She wondered what Jesse would say. He hadn't contacted him since the business with the disk. She considered telling him, then she shook her head scowling. No, she would give Jess a brilliant night out, and forget about the mail herself.
Racing out of the room, she grabbed her coat and made her way to the car. She couldn't help but wonder though, what Jesse would make of the mail.
