A/N- Thanks to TeenageNothing for telling me how to spell Lexa's name correctly. So from now on it will be, hopefully. Enjoy the story. I don't own Mutant X and so on.
So Read and Review please and I promise I'll put next chapter as soon as I can.
"Good evening." Alex says to the group as they approach there table.
Jesse looks up to see his childhood friends standing right in front of him.
"Alex. Betty…umm I mean Elizabeth its good to see you guys come over." He stands up to introduce them. "These is my best friends Brennan and Shalimar and my girlfriend Lexa. Guys I grew up with Alex and Elizabeth."
"Nice to meet you." they all say shaking hands and all.
The angry Elizabeth sat between her cousin and Brennan. She felt the eyes of the girls and look each of them in the eyes until they turned around.
'Be nice.' the voice of her cousin rings in her head.
'Well they started it.' she thought back.
"So how was Jesse growing up?" Lexa finally ask after they order dinner.
"A very mischievous boy." Alex says. "We use to get in trouble all the time."
"Its everything alright." Brennan whisper to the mad girl next to him.
"Yes, I am just having one of those days you know and to top it all of we bump into Jesse." she says with a fake smile.
"What? You don't like him?" he ask back.
"Oh, I didn't mean that. Its just been a weird day. So what do you do anyway?" she ask finally joining the conversation.
The two talking while a jealous feral is looking at them.
"Well we do a little bit of everything. We all met at work. Been working for a few years now." she nods taking small glances at her former friend.
"That's good that you guys can get along like that." she says smiling.
"What do you do?" he ask her.
She gives out a little laugh.
"You know little things." she says not looking him in the eyes.
He grabs her hand then.
"Come on you can tell me." he says.
"Well I inherit part of the family companies. At least one of them. My cousin runs the other." she says sheepishly.
"How did that happen?" he ask wide eye.
"We are the last living relatives." she hesitates. "Sort I am adopted." she squeezes his hand a little. "I like you. Your easy to talk to. As a friend I mean because if it was for more I know your girlfriend will claw my eyes out."
Brennan turns to see a very mad face Shalimar and lets go of her hand.
"Hey honey." he begins.
"Don't you hey honey me." she begins but at that moment the waiter comes in and places there food down.
Only Alex and Jesse are sitting talking while everyone is listening to there childhood antics.
"I'll be back." Elizabeth says getting up and leaving the table.
Shalimar gets up and follows the younger woman to the restroom. Before Elizabeth gets there someone stops her by pulling her back.
"I don't like what you are playing at." Shalimar hisses to her. "But you better stay away from my boyfriend or my friend."
"I don't know what your talking about." she growls back her eyes going gold for a second. "I am not interested in taking away your man. You can have him. I honestly think he is to old for. As for Jesse, don't worry about it. I hope to not ever see him again."
Shalimar looks at her in disbelief.
"Why?" she ask after a while.
"Why don't you ask him what he truly feels about ferals." Elizabeth says walking away from the restroom towards the table.
She doesn't sit down just whispers something to her cousin. Alex nods at her.
"Well it was nice meeting you all but I have an early morning tomorrow. Jesse." she says his name coldly. "Lexa it was great to meet you." she says just a tab warmer. Then with a big smile she turns to look at Brennan. "I hope to talk to you soon. Shalimar I also enjoy are little talk you should stop over at my place sometime. I bet you will find a lot of interesting things there."
She then nods at her cousin and walks away. The whole time Jesse keeps his eyes on her until someone smacks his arm and he turns to look at his mad girlfriend.
"You guys where just unbelievable." Lexa says while pacing around at their new home. "You were all slobbering over that, that shedevil."
She then walks over to Jesse and smacks him behind his head before walking to her room.
"What is up with her?" Brennan ask.
Shalimar just growls at him and then turns to Jesse.
"I had an interest talk with her. About something in your pass." Shalimar says looking up and down him. Would you explain what she meant with ask him what he really thinks about ferals."
Jesse turns pale for a second.
"I don't know what she is talking about." Jesse says. "Besides why are you questioning me when Brennan here was talking to her all night."
There is a bit of jealousy in his comment that made the other two raise there eyebrows at him.
"Probably because she said very convincing that she is not interested on him that way. That she just likes to talk to him and I believe her." she says looking at him like she was looking into his mind. "Besides Brennan was not looking at her like he was about to jump her and kiss her senselessly."
Jesse turns red but before he can comment back Shalimar takes Brennan's hand and they leave him alone in his thoughts.
