I look at Eric. We have got to have some some time today. Surely if I could talk them into not fighting him and showing him to join the team, that I could get some alone time with him.

"What are you thinking about, Charles?" Eric asks me.

"Nothing of importance." After all, it was hard to convince Logan. I did it for us. I at least deserve a kiss, right?

"You aren't paying attention. What are you thinking about?" He acts so different around me than when he's around anyone else. I do too, of course.

"It's nothing." We act like children, but we're certainly not.

"You are." We just play childish games to get each other in the mood.

"Am not." To get the other one to want to kiss them.

"You are." To get each other's attention.

"Am not." To get the other to play.

"You are." To loosen up before a quick kiss.

"Am not." We're so close now. We have to be.

"You are. You're thinking of this," he leans over and kisses me. I knew it.

"What is going on in here?" I hear a woman's voice say. Looks like we've been caught.
