AN: So I've started writing an X-Men AU. This is just the intro but I am hoping that I do actually continue writing. I'm sure this fic is going to be filled with fluff and humor and honestly it's just going to be fun to write.

Intro:

There are four separate apartments on the second floor of the Regency Apartment building in Portland. Three of those are taken.

Alex Summers was first to move in. After finding that paying rent was not easy on his own he offered his friend Hank McCoy to move in. Willingly he had since at the time he had still been in school and dorms just weren't his style.

A few months later Charles and Raven Xavier moved into apartment 5 which was to the right of where Hank and Alex lived. The two boys hadn't exactly left their new neighbors with the best first impression. It wasn't uncommon for Hank and Alex to get into a yelling match at any time of day (or night.) As a result, on the first night, Charles and Raven had been woken up at three in morning because Hank and Alex were yelling at one another over nothing worth yelling about. Somehow, the four had all ended up becoming friends. This didn't stop the yelling from stopping. It just didn't happen as much at night.

Alex was a writer. He was in school becoming an English teacher which might have been why both Raven and Charles and eventually been drawn to him. Raven was supportive of his creative endeavors whereas Charles felt there was a bond since he taught History at the University Alex went.

Hank was in his last year of school just like Alex. However, he was working towards being an engineer. Charles liked him because he was smart and easy to talk with. Raven liked Hank because she felt as though he could understand her better than most people.

Charles and Raven had moved from New York city to Portland in hopes of starting fresh after their mothers death. Neither children had truly lived up to the woman's insanely high standards and her death, though sad, offered both freedom.

Charles had gotten a job teaching history at Portland State University. Since high school he had always had a special place in his heart for the past. Sadly being a historian didn't exactly pay well so he had always studied education in New York. Charles really did enjoy teaching. He hadn't been doing it for long but he wasn't inexperienced so adjusting to the new position in Portland hadn't been as tough as it could have been.

School had never been Raven's strength. It wasn't that she wasn't smart; Raven was brilliant. She was just stronger out of school. Career wise, she was a part time Barista at a coffee shop a few blocks away. Full time she was a comic book artist. For the longest time it had only been a hobby but after moving Raven had decided to make a career out of it. She hadn't had anything professionally published yet but she had a growing internet comic she updated recently.

It took two years and four months for anyone else to move into either of the vacant apartments on the second floor of the Regency building. When the news reached the other residents it had been a big deal. New neighbors were exciting. Even Alex, although he said otherwise, was looking forward to a couple of new faces.

And then the two men moved in and Charles had to be the first to visit. Things didn't exactly go according to his plans...

"I cannot believe him!" Charles slammed the front door of his shared apartment. Raven didn't even look up at her older brother as he tossed his sweater onto the island and stormed into the living room.

"So you really hit it off with the new neighbor then?" She asked from where she sat on the sofa. On her left sat Hank McCoy and Alex Summers was sprawled out on the floor. They were all comfortable enough around each other so Charles didn't spare them from his fury.

"Neighbors," He corrected his sister before sinking down next to her. "Actually Sean was a rather charming young man. A little clumsy but nice enough. However, his roommate... don't even get me started on his roommate!"

Now interested, Alex rolled over and sat up.

"Okay, if you are going to go on some huge rant you've got to at least start this all off by sharing this no good neighbors name."

This earned him a scowl.

"Erik. His name is Erik."
