OoOoOoOo Chapter 2 OoOoOoOo
"Every day sin is deeper in your heart, Screaming souls, deeper and deeper...Come in me like a knife on my skin, But you can... never die... never die," Lexa sang softly into the air. Her eyes were closed and her head moved side to side.
Anna watched her; she was sitting in a chair with her feet on top of the principal's desk some of the dirt from her boots dusting the soft wooden top. She would have joined in the signing but liked how the song rolled out of Lexa's mouth. The girl knew how to sing. She stopped looking at her younger friend though when the door opened, she expected the old bald teacher but was surprised to see a woman with short black hair.
Lexa though hadn't noticed a thing and continued singing, "Every tear... you'll cry…Everyday... I'll die. With my blood you can survive. And we live forever... into hell…"
"What kind of song is that Laura Lex?"
Lexa stopped singing and looked up at her Math teacher, before she could answer though Anna spoke up.
"Ah thought we were waiting for Xavier? Not for a lecture from yah."
The older woman glared at her, "Do not give me attitude Anna. I specifically told you I didn't want to see you in this room this semester before you got out of the car yesterday and look at this…it's not even the first day of school."
"Ah'm sorry mother…but ah guess something's just can't be helped."
Raven Darkholme glared at her daughter only to have it returned by the younger girl. Lexa stared from one to other wondering, which would stop the staring contest only to have it interrupted.
"Oh Raven…I didn't know you were in here. Could you leave me alone with the girls please?"
Raven turned away from her daughter, "Of course Charles…I'll be outside if you need anything."
"I'm sure I won't but thank you," Charles Xavier answered and watched her closed the door behind her. He then turned to the two sophomore girls with a small smile. "I wasn't expecting you two in my office this early ladies…do you know why you're here?"
"Cause I wanna be a striper?" Lexa answered.
Professor Xavier chuckled a bit, "No Ms. Howlett…you're both here because you disrupted the orientation assembly. Did you honestly believe that saying that wouldn't cause some kind of reaction?" Both girls stayed quiet. "I didn't think so…you girls haven't done anything wrong…" he told them as he saw how serious looking they were. "I'm just afraid you might have given the freshman an idea that it's ok to make an outburst like that…and it's not. Ms. Howlett if you want to be an…entertainer…the school really doesn't have to know. Are we clear on what's happened?" Both girls nodded. "Good…I think we're done here. You both still have a clean slate at school since school doesn't really start until tomorrow. I hope we don't make these visits frequent…you're dismissed."
"We won't…" Anna answered getting up and walking towards the door.
"Bye headmaster," Lexa answered and followed Anna. When they were out of the office they gave each other small smirks which quickly disappeared when they saw Ms. Darkholme watching them carefully. Lexa nodded at her while Anna passed her with a perked eyebrow.
After they were gone Raven shook her head and mumbled, "What am I going to do with her," to herself.

"Do you think they've been expelled?" Jubilee asked after they had gotten back to their room.
"I doubt it…I don't think it was a real big deal," Wanda answered.
"What exactly is this stripper thing?" Amara asked making both other girls look at her like she was a weirdo. Amara blushed, "Sorry…it's just that…everything is different from where I'm from. We're very isolated to the rest of the world…"
Wanda smirked, "A stripper is someone who is very attracted to a poll…" she answered.
Jubilee giggled a bit then answered, "A stripper is an entertainer that takes off her close for money…I'm sure she was just kidding when she said that though…right?" she asked turning to Wanda.
"With that girl…you never know," she answered and sat on her bed. As if knowing she was being talked about seconds later Laura Lex Howlett appeared.
"We're home…did you enjoy you the funeral?"
Wanda rolled her eyes, " It wasn't that bad…how it'd go with you two?"
"Got bitched at and that's about it," Anna answered and propped herself down on Lexa's bed. "Anything interesting happened?"
"Not really…" Jubilee answered and looked at the school pamphlet they passed out while they were walking out.
"Ya uh…that guy come up and talked to you remember? And then a girl with purple highlights come over to us too…"
"What guy?" Lexa asked looking over to the Asian.
"What did the girl with the highlights want?" Anna asked at the same time.
"I don't know…just some guy…I forgot what he said his name was but he had brown eyes and blonde hair…Benji…Bailey…maybe Brandon…"
Amara giggled, "I think it was Bobby…"
"Oh…ya…"
"Bobby Drake?" Lexa asked. After a while at staring at the younger girl she just added, "Be careful…" Jubilee looked up at her with a confused expression but before she could ask Anna spoke up again.
"Ya…back to the main subject, girl with the purple highlights what did she want?"
"She was just saying something about you two," Wanda answered.
Anna's eyes narrowed, "lakhe what?" she asked in a dark voice.
OoOoOoOo Building 2B Dorm 3 OoOoOoOo
Amnesty eyes looked out a window. The day was getting dark and soon would end to mark the beginning of the school year. 'How grand…' Elisabeth Braddock thought as she looked at that darkening sky. She looked over to the side where some of her roommates were talking and gossiping about some of the new people at school.
"Did you see those new girls rooming with Laura Lex Howlett and Anna Marie Darkholme…don't you just feel bad for them having to room with such weirdoes," a blond remarked as she organized her stuff around.
"Like ya…poor things. I bet that's what like Bobby was being nice to that Asian one…maybe he was warning her to stay a bit away or soon she'll be dressing like a wannabe Goth too…" a small brunette answered and both started laughing.
Elisabeth rolled her eyes at both, she was getting annoyed with the chitter chatter about her ex friends but she knew when to hold her tongue. If she spoke up then one of the two would go and snitch to Jean. She turned back to the window while wondering if joining the popular crowd was worth the split she had with Lexa and Anna at the end of last year.
"Betts?"
Elisabeth turned and looked at Katherine Pyrde who had called to her. "Ya?" she asked
"What were you like telling those girls anyway? I saw you talking to them."
"Nothing. Just what you guys were just saying…to watch out for them," she answered.
The blond girl smirked, "Well I'm going to to go over and talk to Jean, why don't you two make our friends here feel comfy," she stated and looked at the two dark skinned girls that had moved in that day. Kitty smirked and walked over to them.
"So you're Amanda and you're Danielle right?" both girls nodded and Kitty stated babbling to them how great the school was and asked them question about their personal life. Elisabeth watched them and then watched as Emma Frost walked out of the room towards the room next door.
OoOoOoOo Dorm 2B Room 2 OoOoOoOo
'Knock Knock'
"Come in…"
"Hey," Emma greeted as she walked in and looked around to many familiar faces. "Wow you guys are lucky no new roommates?"
"Actually…" another blonde girl spoke up and signaled towards the corner where a girl with shirt red hair stood.
"Oh…hello."
"Hi," the girl greeted meekly.
Jean who had been staring at her reflection smirked and turned around, "Meet our new freshman roomie…Rahne Sinclair."
Emma nodded and then turned to the blond friend that had spoken earlier, "Have you talked to you're lover?" she asked.
Crystal Amaquelin smirked, "Of course…and I told you he'd miss me, I'm sure they were talking about me before I got to him cause it seemed like they were."
Emma rolled her eyes, "You can never be to sure with a player," she answered.
"Well every player needs a tamer. Maybe Crystal finally tamed Pietro" a new voice asked making all the girls look at the voice.
A girl with pale blond hair smirked at them from the doorway.
"Hey were did you go?" Emma asked as the girl gave her a quick hug.
"To get something to drink," she answered and shook her drink in front of her face. "How was your summer?" she asked.
"Like you care Vertigo."
Vertigo Essex turned and glared to the last girl in the room who was lying down on a bed. She had short blond hair, light blue jeans and a pink shirt. "Don't you have something better to be doing Tabby?"
"As a matter of fact I do," the girl answered and got up. "I haven't talked to my best friend yet," she stated as she walked towards the door.
Vertigo smirked, "Best friends?…wow I didn't know best friends do what you two do…"
Tabitha Smith smirked, "Then you're not living life to the fullest" she answered and walked out the door.
OoOoOoOo Building 2B Dorm 5 OoOoOoOo
Anna sat on her bed. Below her, the others were talking about their personal life, likes and dislikes. She would have joined them but at the moment her mind was on other things, the more dramatic part of her life at the moment. One of those being her ex boyfriend and the other being her ex friend.
It was odd coming back to school and having things be this different than before. Elisabeth had been one of her very best friends and she had stabbed her in the back the worst way possible, by joining 'her'. She knew how much she detested Jean yet she became friends with her and soon afterwards joined the "popular" crowd.
'What a fucken sell out…' she thought to herself darkly. What got her even more pissed off was that she still had the feature that made her fit in with her and Lexa…the purple hair. She took a deep breath and shook her thoughts out of her head. Now that her thoughts were away from Betts they went towards Scott.
Scott…she wouldn't lie…she did miss him, but there was that old saying, "There's nothing like a women scorned" and at the moment she was also feeling a lot of hatred towards her ex lover.
She smirked as she looked into space, 'Scotts gonna get what's coming tah him…' she thought evilly. For some reason as she thought of this a vision of Jean's current boyfriend came to mind. Her evil smile disappeared as her head turned to an angle and she wondered about the older boy.
Remy Lebeau…he was attractive and looked like he was everything Lexa described him as. It looked like he was one of those guys that could get any woman he wanted. Yet when she had talked to him the day before at the student services he seemed pretty kind. To say she wasn't interested him would be a lie…there was something captivating about him that made her want to investigate him. She smirked at the idea and shook it off, she wasn't a stalker.
"You know I'm starting to get the idea you might be nuts…"
Anna looked up to see Wanda staring at her with a perked eyebrow.
"What?" she asked.
"Well you just went through four different expressions. First you looked mad, then you looked a bit depressed, after that it was evil and you just got this goofy kind of giddy thing… are you psycho?"
Anna smirked, "Maybe a little," she answered. "Yah need anything?"
"Ya we're going down to the cafeteria to get snacks and whatever. Lex is also demanding that we should take Amara and Jubilation out for a tour."
"Fiahne…" the green-eyed beauty answered and started getting up, "Yah nevah know what we might bump into…" she added. Wanda perked and eyebrow at her and soon followed as the others walked out of the room.
OoOoOoOo Building 2A Dorm 4 OoOoOoOo
Blue eyes glared at the darkened side of the room. The bed sheets were black…his outfit was black…and he even seemed to be wearing make-up.
"Bobby…if you look at that guy like that for any longer you might burn a whole through his head."
"What kind of guy dresses like that?" Bobby snapped as he kept staring at the tall guy with blond hair and orange bangs.
"He does?"
Bobby rolled his eyes, "I bet you he's a fag…and here we are sharing a room with him."
"I think you're overreacting since he's different…"
Bobby opened his mouth and was ready to reply when there was a knock at the door. Instead of saying what he was originally going to say he said, "Get the door Scott."
"Why me?" the older boy asked annoyed.
"Cause you're standing up," Bobby answered with a shrug. Scott looked at him through his ruby glasses but then went ahead and opened it.
"Hey you're not suppose to be here. If you get caught we'll all get in troub…"
"Stop being such a stick in the mud Scooter…" a feminine voice answered and pushed hit out of the way.
Tabitha looked around the room and smiled at the new boys she didn't know. "Wow, you guys got some cuties this year…" she told Scott and Bobby while winking at a short boy with light brown hair who blushed. "And who are you?" she asked.
"His name is Jamie and he's a freshman so leave him alone you child molester…"
Tabitha smirked at Bobby, "Nice to see you too…" she told him. She then looked at the other two new roommates they had. One was a blond with longer hair than boys usually wore it; he sat quietly on a couch chair and paid little attention to her. The other one was staring curiously at her with his dark blue eyes. She eyed him up and down and gave him a sly smile, "Dark and handsome…I like."
Bobby got up from where he was leaning on a wall and grabbed her harshly by the wrist and dragged her into his room.
"Bobby let go you jerk that hurts!"
"Did you just come to check out the new guys or what?" he asked letting her go and closing the door behind him.
"No…I came to see you...they were just a bonus," she teased.
Bobby rolled his eyes and propped down on his end. "So what did you want?"
"Wow you're cold today. That Goth guy is pretty cute but you know that's not my type of guy…is that what's bugging you? Or are you just in the mood for Chinese?"
Bobby smirked at her. "What do you care what I'm in the mood for?"
"I don't. Anyway I just came by to say hi to my best friend but since it seems I'm unwanted I'll just go," she answered.
"Wait…don't. I haven't talked to you a lot this summer…you know cause my parents sent me on that stupid European trip. Anyway stay and talk to me."
"Just talk?" Tabitha asked with a smile.
Bobby smirked and shrugged, "Whatever you want…" he answered.
Tabitha smirked and on got on the bed. Soon she was straddling him and looking down at him. "We have all year to talk…" she stated and went down towards his face.
OoOoOoOo Cafeteria OoOoOoOo
The girls walked into a large circular looking room. Wanda looked around and was surprised to see that there wasn't a lot of people around.
"Where is everybody?" she asked.
Anna shrugged, "Probably giving new roommates a tour or something…"
"That or their checking the opposite sex out," Lexa added with a smirk and looked around to check out the guys.
Amara giggled and looked around, "So what is there to eat around here?"
"Go around and find something…they serve anything you'd pretty much want but if yah aren't hungry then yah can just come back later. The cafeteria doesn't close till midnight and opens at like 5 am. Plus there's vending machines all over the time for during the times it's closed."
"Come on…I'll show you were the good foods at," Lexa told them and put an arm around their shoulders and dragged them away towards a corner of the large room.
"Do they serve anything hot around here?" Wanda asked as she watched them go.
"Hot? Ya…Ah'm in the mood for sumething spicy mahself…" Anna answered and started walking in the opposite way that Lex had gone. The reached a long silver counter with see through glass covering the food there was about a dozen different things to pick from so the observed the food carefully.
After about five minutes of just looking Wanda asked, "Well what do you recommend?"
Anna opened her mouth and was about to respond when a male voice spoke up and said, "Well that one looks pretty good luv…"
Wanda's eyes narrowed at the word 'luv', "Who are you calling…" she stopped when she turned around and saw who it was. The voice had sounded familiar with the Australian accent but as she turned around she saw why, Pietro's friend.
John smirked at the short girl seeing some agitation in her eyes. Wanda looked at his smirk and countered with her own.
"Thanks…" she answered sweetly and eyed him carefully. Anna gave a quick glance to the guy that had spoken and then at Wanda before turning back towards the food. A couple of seconds later though she felt as if she was being watched. She glanced at Wanda again but saw that she wasn't paying attention to her; she was making small chat with the orange-headed boy. She then started to slowly turn around but when she did all she saw was black.
Her eyes rose a bit and looked into dark brown ones that in the light looked a bit reddish. Her mouth started carving into a smile when she saw that it was Jeans boyfriend. He was wearing a black shirt with loose gray shorts that reached down below his knees.
"Bonjour…" he told her in an appeased tone.
"Uh…hi…" she answered.
"That was a nice little stunt you pulled in the assembly…" he told her with a smirk.
She chuckled a bit, "Ah try…" she told him with a sly face. He kept smirking at her and was about to open his mouth to reply when something suddenly attached itself to him. Anna turned to it and saw blue eyes throwing daggers at her.
Anna rolled her eyes, "Yah know what Wanda? Ah've lost my appetite…see ya…"
Wanda turned to Anna and watched her start walking away, she then turned to the guy that had been behind her and recognized him as another one of Pietro's friend. On his arm was the red head that got on Lexa and Anna's nerves and she was surprised to see some blondes behind her. She eyed all of them carefully before starting to step backwards and then turning away and following Anna without a goodbye to John.
John watched her figure walk away carefully before he felt an arm on his shoulder. "Sorry to tell you this man…but she's way out of your league…"
John shoved the arm off and turned to the blond haired guy that was with the girls, "What makes you say that Duncan?"
Duncan Mathews laughed, "You serious? She just blew you off without a word Johnny boy…"
John smiled at his 'friend', " Look Duncan if I want her I can get her ok…"
"Ya right…"
"I am right…"
"Prove it."
"What? How?"
"I'll make you a bet…you think you're a big shot that can get her right?"
"Ya…"
"Then how bout I give you two weeks to do it."
"What?"
"Ya…I dare you to try and get her to date you and you have two weeks to do it…"
"No way."
"You chicken?"
"No…I'm just not an asshole."
"Looks like some one is a chicken!" Duncan stated and started making chicken sounds. Remy rolled his eyes and tried getting Jean off him so he could go and smack Duncan but it was no use. Jean's grip on him was tight.
After some more chicken sounds John rolled his own eyes and said, "Shut up already…anyway what's in it for me?" he asked.
Duncan stopped and thought for a minute, "Anything you want…and I'll even add 500 dollars."
John laughed, "You're so cheap…" he answered but thought about it and after a while said, "You know what…you're on…"
"You seem confident…" Emma Frost stated looking at John through narrowed eyes. She watched as he smirked, she hated how confident he was about it…it was almost as if he was really into that girl. Her insides roared with jealousy at the thought…everyone knew she wanted him…except him. She sighed and then glared at the direction the raven-haired girl had gone.
"I'm confident cause I have an advantage," he answered after a while.
"Oh ya like what?"
John smirked and looked at Remy knowing his best friend would know the answer. Remy mirrored John's smirk and said, "She's Pietro's sister…"
All the girls' eyes widened and then all of them turned to see the girl walking out of the Cafeteria. Feet away from her was Pietro leaning on a wall watching her leave.
OoOoOoOo Meanwhile OoOoOoOo
"Hey wait up," Wanda called out to Anna who was still walking.
"You know they were watching you like vultures…"
Anna stopped at the voice. Wanda stopped a couple of feet away and looked at the girl who had spoken. She was sitting alone at a small around table sipping what looked like coffee. Wanda then turned around and saw that John, a blond boy and the blonde girl with shoulder length hair were staring at her.
"What do yah care?" Anna asked.
"I don't…"
Anna kept staring at the girl and looked around trying to see why exactly she was alone. A couple feet away a muscular figure caught her attention. The blond hair on the male confirmed her thoughts and she smirked. "Yah know Betts…Ah told yah this last year and ah'll do it again for old time sakes…Warren isn't gonna come tah yah…if yah want him go tah him." Anna then stared at Wanda and commented, "Ah hate when girls don't act on their feeling forh men…it's pathetic," she finished and looked at Warren who was now joined by a black haired girl, it was his girlfriend Candy Southern. Anna stared for a second and started walking away.
Elisabeth watched Warren and Candy but called out to Anna making her turn towards the purple haired girl. Betts turned her head to her and said, "How's Scott?" with a devilish smile.
Anna glared at her and answered with, "Touché." She then turned away and both her and Wanda started looking for Lexa and the others. They didn't have to look far, a couple feet away was Jubilee and Amara drinking a shake.
"Hey…yah like?" Anna asked the younger girls. Jubilee nodded happily while Amara threw them a thumbs up.
"Where did you two go?" Jubilee asked taking the straw out of her mouth.
"To get something to eat…."
"What did you buy?" Amara asked.
"Nothing…" but answered in unison. The younger girls looked at them with perked eyebrows wondering why if they wanted food.
"Where's Lex?" Anna asked. Both of them pointed to the side making the older girls turn and find Lexa looking angry. Her mouth kept opening and closing as if she was shouting.
"What's wrong with her? Wanda asked trying to see who she was talking to.
"She's been like that since she went over there. I guess the guy that was in line behind us really annoys her and they both started arguing and got out of line and have been like that ever since…"
Anna closed her eyes, "Please don't tell meh that he's taller than her, has silver hair, blue eyes and a killer smirk…"
"My lips are sealed then…" Amara answered and went back to her drink. Anna sighed and started walking towards Lexa noticing that Wanda had gone before her. Amara and Jubilee looked at each other before getting up and running after them.
"You have no damn respect. Making that stupid comment at the assembly. You just have to get all the attention don't you? You are gonna grow up to be a whore…"
"Sorry Pietro but I'm not a mirror. Plus I was thinking more towards the line that I'm the hooker and you're a whore."
Pietro chuckled a bit but the anger was noticeable in his eyes, "Oh so you get paid for that?" he said pointing to her body. "How much do you get? A penny a day? And here I used to think you gave it up for free…"
"Do I look like your girlfriend?" Lexa asked looking confused.
Pietro's eyes glared at the shorter girl and started walking towards her in an aggressive manner. Laura Lex stood her ground her head started to raise, as he got closer so her eyes could still meet his. Before they could make contact though a body stepped in between them and there was a…
"Why don't you mess with somebody you're own size…"
Laura Lex looked up and saw the familiar hair of Julian Keller. She rolled her eyes as she stared at the black hair of the junior who had a crush on her. She quickly walked out in front of him and squeezed between them throwing him back away from Pietro since they were glaring at each other.
"Julian Hi! Nice to see you…how was your summer?" she asked. Julian opened his mouth to answer but before he even said anything she said, "Ya that's nice…anyway thanks for coming to my rescue but…" her eyes narrowed a bit and her tone got stronger. "I'm not a damsel in distress…I don't need a protector…" after saying this she noticed that her hand was still in the air symbolizing that she wanted him to keep his distance. She also noticed that her back was pressed up against something lean and warm. She moved her head back to look up and stared into sapphire eyes.
She then quickly moved forward in the middle of both boys. "I don't need a man to protect me…" she repeated again looking at Julian and then turned to Pietro, "Or to satisfy me. You know what? I don't think I need men at all…" she finished and started walking out the large room.
The other girls looked at the boys who stood dumbfounded. Anna smirked liking the way Lex hand handled things and started walking to their room. Jubilee and Amara looked from one guy to the other trying to see which one would look better with Lexa before taking off after both girls. Julian looked at the direction Lex had gone, glared at Pietro and then walked away. Pietro glared at him too then turned towards the exit where the girls had gone through seconds earlier.
He walked backwards until he hit a wall and leaned on it. His gaze then returned to Julian Keller who was eating with some friends. He never noticed that Wanda was still there and watching him.
"Tell me…what irritates you more? The fact that someone stood up for her? Or the fact that it's someone who's interested in her?" she asked making him realize she was there.
Pietro watched his twin closely. Her mouth was closed but her eyebrow was up waiting for a response, which never came. She shook her head and started walking out of the room, Pietro watched her while running the question in his head over and over again.
OoOoOoOo Building 2B Dorm 5 OoOoOoOo
Wanda walked into the room to find that Lexa was in bed looking at the ceiling. Jubilee was looking at the calories of her shake, Amara was still sipping hers and Anna was nowhere to be seen which meant she was up on her own bed.
"You ok?" she asked and sat on foot of Lex's bed.
Lexa looked at her, "Ya why wouldn't I?"
Wanda shrugged and then smirked, "So who was that guy?"
"Hmm…who?"
"That guy that was ready to get Pietro."
"Julian Keller? Just some guy that wants to get with me."
"You like him?"
"Phfft…she likes him as much as she likes Peanut Butter…" Anna replied from above.
"Hey everyone loves peanut butter. Don't they?" Jubilee asked.
Lexa smirked, "I'm allergic to peanut butter…"
They all stayed quiet for a while before they burst out laughing.
"Poor guy…" Amara commented as she threw away the drink into the trash bin.
"He'll get over it," Lexa answered. "And who knows…maybe I'll want a makeout buddy in the future."
"Your so bad…so if you don't like him…what's going on in your love life?"
Lexa looked at Wanda. For a while she just stared at her, but as she did Wanda noticed that it looked like Lex was looking straight through her but her eyes was fixated on her sapphire ones. She finally snapped out of it and looked back at the ceiling, "I have no love life…"
Wanda stared at her for a moment and then realized that Anna had gotten up from her bed and was looking down at them from the rail. Things had gotten quiet so Wanda got up from the bed and took her phone out.
"It's to quiet and we have no TV. Let me call my dad and fix this problem…" she walked over to the corner of the room and her voice was the only sound as the others lost themselves in space.
OoOoOoOo Building 2A Dorm 2 OoOoOoOo
The sky was getting darker and darker. There were a couple of stars out already and soon the day would end to start their year in hell. It was a beautiful vie though…one of the reasons he had gotten used to this dorm. The view from the hallway window soothed him.
"'Ey what's up with ya? Yah 'aven't been yourself since we came back from de cafeteria," the Cajun voice asked.
Pietro didn't bother turning around, he just kept looking out the window and answered back with a "Nothing's wrong."
"He looks a bit love struck…maybe Crystal did him some favors," John commented. Remy smirked but shook his head.
"Non. Jean told me that the girls were together all day catching up. I don't think they even talked today."
Before any of them could make any more comments the door opened and Warren walked in.
"Hey," he greeted. The others nodded and Pietro just waved his hand at him without turning.
"Where did you run off to?" John asked.
"Hung out with Candy for a bit, but then I went down student services and found out what was going on with out new roommate"
"And?"
"We don't have a new roommate…"
"Ya a free room…" John shouted.
"Not exactly…"
"Huh?"
"It's not a new roommate…it's an old friend…" Warren answered and then they heard…
"The fuzzy one has arrived let the party begin!"
Remy perked and eyebrow and looked at John, "Do we know anyone fuzzy?"
" I don't think so…" he answered and as he did a boy with dark blue shoulder haired walking in.
Remy squinted his eyes as he slowly recognized the person, "Kurt? That ya mon ami?"
"The one and only," came a reply and Kurt Wagner got closer to them.
"Hey!" John greeted and stood up to do their special handshake. "What's up and hey…you have stubble…" he stated noticing the small beard appearing.
"That would be why I called myself the fuzzy one," Kurt answered and laughed. "It'll be gone tomorrow though."
"What are you doing here? Isn't your dorm 3 doors down?"
"Nah. I was on vacation in Germany and my flight barley came in so they gave my old bed to some new kid and here I am."
"Sounds like we're gonna have a lot of parties," John joked.
Kurt nodded and then looked at Pietro who hadn't said anything, "What's up with him?"
"Who knows, he's been weird since we came back from the cafeteria."
"The cafeteria?" Warren asked and looked at Pietro. "Did Laura Lex poison your food or something?"
"Laura Lex?" Remy asked and looked at Warren.
"Ya, you know that girl that came this morning with her other friends. I think one of them is Pietro's sister…I saw them talking in the Cafeteria."
John and Remy smirked. "Oh really…" John stated and looked at Pietro who had finally turned around.
Pietro rolled his eyed and walked into his room not saying a word to any of them.
Warren and Kurt looked at the other two puzzled.
Remy nodded, "He's just butt hurt that John said he looked love struck and now we happened to know who he was with since we knew it wasn't Crystal."
Warren smirked, " I don't know about love struck…they were pretty much insulting each other with every breath they had."
Kurt walked over to the fridge after dropping his bags and got a bottle of water, "People show attraction in many different ways…" he stated and took a drink while the others stayed quiet and thought about it.
OoOoOoOo Next Morning OoOoOoOo
'Beep beep beep SLAM'
Hazel eyes lazily opened and looked at the alarm clock. 7:20. They re-closed and opened what seemed like a minute later but the clock read 7:40.
"SHIT!"
Jubilee sat up startled from the yell and then watched as Laura Lex jumped off her bed and towards her drawers. "What's up?" she asked sleepily.
"We over slept 20 minutes! We're gonna be late!" She yelled and started undressing. Jubilee popped up in bed and then walked over to Amara shaking her.
"5 more minutes Isabella."
"Amara get your butt up or we'll be late!" Amara's dark eyes slowly opened. "Get up get up get up!" Jubilee yelled and pushed her off the bed.
"Ow…what the heck?"
"Get up!" Jubes yelled again and started taking out her uniform.
Lexa watched them and after she slid her skirt up she walked over to Wanda's bed and pulled the covers off only to be surprised and find that instead of finding Wanda she found pillows.
"What the…"
"What is it?" Jubes asked putting on her tie.
"She's not here…I better tell An…" she didn't finish because as she climbed the stairs towards Anna's bed she found it empty and already made. Her eyes narrowed and she yelled "DAMMIT!"
OoOoOoOo Cafeteria OoOoOoOo
Anna's leg bounced up and down from it's resting place on her knee. "Yah think they're up yet?"
"Probably," Wanda answered and took a sip of her hot coffee. "Lex's is going to want to kill us when she sees we got up without her."
"Well it's not our faults their lazy assess," Anna answered. Wanda smirked at the answer and watched as more students in uniform walked in. All the girls wore the same thing, a black skirt, matching black thin jackets, sky blue long sleeved shirt and a red tie. The guys wore the same thing except instead of skirts they wore pants, and their jacket was longer and looser on them.
"You think the guy who made this had any fashion sense?" Wanda asked as she loosened her tie.
Anna smirked and was about to answer when a cute small brown haired boy walked towards them meekly. He stopped in front of Wanda and held out a red rose. Wanda stared at it strangely and was going to ask what it was for when the boy spoke.
"Mr. John Allerdyce wishes you a good morning."
"Who?" she asked and watched as he turned and pointed. Her eyed landed on a red head individual and dark blue eyes that were watching her. Wanda smirked and took it, "Tell him the thought's appreciated…" he nodded and ran off leaving Wanda to sniff the flower.
Anna watched and rolled her eyes before turning towards the direction where John was. When she saw him she saw that he wasn't alone. Pietro was on his left with a confused face looking at him and then at his sister. On his right sat Remy Lebeau staring right at her. She held his gaze for a bit before getting uncomfortable and getting up.
"Come on…the bell's about to ring. Ah'll show you to your first class."
"Fine," Wanda answered and got up. Together they left the large dome looking room and ignored the 2 pair of eyes glaring at them from a far a way corner.
OoOoOoOo Minutes later OoOoOoOo
"Here it is," Anna stated and stopped in front of the computer room. "The teacher likes to be called Selene…she likes to act more like a friend than a teacher. It's an easy A, anyway good luck…"
"Thanks…" Wanda answered and walked in. The room was half full and she didn't know anyone so she walked to the back and sat on the seat closer to the window. She looked outside and waited for the bell to ring. A couple of minutes later she felt someone sit next to her the smell of cologne filled her nostrils. Her nose twitched but she didn't turn.
"I didn't know you were a junior…"
Wanda's eyed widened a bit and answered, "I didn't know you were a stalker."
John laughed, "How can I be a stalker if I didn't even know you were in the same grade as me".
"How could you not know? We're twins!" Pietro's voice joined the conversation making Wanda finally turned. She groaned as she saw that Pietro and his friends surrounded her. Many them of them she recognized as girls that Anna didn't get along with.
"Don't look so disappointed…we won't torture you to boredom or something…just because Anna doesn't like us doesn't mean we can't be friends."
"Anna and I are a lot of like…so believe me, whatever irritates her about you…is likely going to get to me too…" Wanda replied to Elisabeth who was sitting in front of her.
"That's to bad…something tells me we could have been great friends…"
Wanda looked at the blond with shoulder length hair. Her blues eyes pierced daggers at her and Wanda noticed that her gaze would sometimes land on John. Wanda smirked and turned away to turn on her computer. She looked for the switch but didn't find it causing John to chuckle and turn it on for her. She gave him a thankful smile and noticed that the blond was still glaring at her.
"And so hell has began…" she whispered making John smirk.
"It's not that bad…" he replied and they shared a look before Selene started the class.
OoOoOoOo 1st Period- English OoOoOoOo
Lexa rushed through the door to her first period and as soon as she did the bell rang.
"Miss. Howlett please be on time tomorrow."
"Yes professor Wyngarde," Lexa answered and walked to the empty seat in the room, which was reserved for her.
Anna smirked as Lex walked towards her; it quickly disappeared though when she got kicked in the shins. "Ow…you whore…and after Ah saved yah that seat too…" Anna whispered angrily at her.
"That's what you get for letting me oversleep…" Lex answered.
"It's not my fault you can't wake yourself up," Anna answered. Lexa mimicked her and then stick her tongue out at her only to hear…
"Miss Howlett…PAY ATTENTION!"
Lex snapped her face to the white board. "Yes sir…" she answered. Vertigo, Tabitha and Bobby all gave her smirks and giggled at her. Lexa rolled her eyes but before she could say anything Anna brought her hand up and flipped them off as the teacher turned his face back to the board. They glared at her but turned away from them.
"Did you take Jubes and Amara to their first class?" Anna whispered.
"Ya...that's why I'm late," Lex answered and started copying down Anna's notes. Her friend nodded and they both stayed quiet as Mr. Wyngarde started the class.
OoOoOoOo 1st Period- P.E OoOoOoOo
Amara rolled up her black shorts as Jubilee finished putting on her gym uniform.
"I can't believe we have gym first…this sucks we're going to be sweaty before the other classes start."
"It's not that bad…when it's really hot in spring we won't have to be under the scorching sun…" Jubilee replied looking at it in a positive way.
"Ya but when it's winter we're gonna be freezing our asses off," Amara replied as they started walking towards the field.
Jubilee started opening her mouth but they both turned around when the heard a, "Hey you two!"
"Yes?" Jubilee asked as a blond hairy man walked towards them.
"You're late," that booming voice told them.
As he said that the bell rang, "I guess we are…are you the tardy police?" Amara joked.
"No I'm your teacher…" he answered making Jubilee glare at Amara who mouthed 'whoops' to her. "And you guys have just earned yourself a mile jog…you have 8 minutes to be back."
"But sir…"
"NOW!"
Jubilee grabbed Amara's arm and started running towards the track, "That guy is scary…" Jubes told her.
"Tell me about it…what a way to start the year."
OoOoOoOo 8 Hours later OoOoOoOo
Anna walked into the dorm room she shared with the others. Laura Lex was right behind her and looked wiped out. They had just had P.E and weren't on great terms with the teacher, Victor Creed. When they opened the door they saw that Wanda was on her bed and putting lotion on her hands, which looked a bit red. Jubilee was on her bed with a math book opened on her lap and a pencil in hand; Amara was nowhere in sight.
"Hey…" Lexa greeted and walked to her bed only to fall hard on it. Jubilee answered with a 'hey' without looking up and Wanda just nodded as Anna limped up the stairs.
"What's wrong with you two?" Wanda asked.
"P.E teacher is an ass," Anna answered and disappeared from sight.
"You?" came a muffled reply from Lexa's bed.
"I got bored during Civics so Pietro and I played bloody knuckles," she answered.
"You win?"
"Of course…you know how weak he is," she answered.
"Where's Amara?" Anna asked from up the stairs.
"Dunno…she left somewhere pretty excited," Jubilee answered and seconds later Amara barged in.
"Hey!"
"Hey," came the unenthusiastic replies.
"Wow you all seem pretty dead. Guess this means none of you are gonna be joining the after school classes."
"No way," Lexa answered. Wanda shook her head and a loud 'HA' was heard from Anna's bed.
"Aww come on…I wanna join the drama class but don't want to do it alone. Jubes?"
"No can do. I have a ton of homework and homework is my number one priority…"
"Aw please?"
"No."
"Please please please…"
"Nooo."
"Please?"
"NO!"
OoOoOoOo 5 Minutes later OoOoOoOo
"Welcome to Drama class. I am you're teacher Agatha Harkness, call me Ms. Harkness. You're here because you want to be so I except good behavior if not I will kick you out and you will not be able to take this course…in this class you will learn to…"
Jubilee smacked her head with a script book that was handed to them at the door, "Why am I here?" she asked.
"Cause you're a great friend," Amara answered with a huge smile.
"Ya ya ya…" Jubes answered and looked around. After what seemed like an hour, which was only 10 minutes, Jubilee got up only to feel a hand on her wrist.
"Where are you going?" Amara asked.
"To pee," Jubilee answered and left. Amara watched her and then turned her attention back to Ms. Harkness.
"While you're here I want to HEAR you…I want EXPRESSIONS! I want you not to SAY the lines but BE the lines…BE your characters! Anyway for your first assignment you need to get in pairs and well do a quick dialogue just to get to know everyone. Pick your partners."
Amara looked around frantically, 'Great time to go to the bathroom Jubes,' she thought to herself. She then got up, as did all the people in the theater and stood in place waiting.
"Looking for a partner?" A voice asked behind her.
"Not exactl…" she stared and turned around only to stare at a dark skinned boy, black hair, light brown eyes and a killer smile. "Hi…"
The boy smiled, "Hi…"
After a while of silence Amara snapped out of her daze and realized he was still waiting for an answer, "Oh…I…don't have a partner…"
"Would you like to be mine?"
"Sure…" Amara answered.
"I'm Roberto Da Costa," he told her and reached out his hand out for her at shake.
"Amara Aquilla," she answered and took his hand only to have him raise it and kiss it. Amara blushed and gave a small smile.
"Hey I'm back."
Roberto turned to an Asian girl who appeared all of a sudden and looked at their entwined hands with a perked eyebrow.
"Oh, hey Jubes…this is Roberto…my um…partner…"
Jubilee's jaw dropped, "Hi…" she greeted the boy and then glared at Amara who had a sheepish look on her face. "Well…I'm gonna go over there now…" she stated after a couple seconds of awkward silence. Amara gave her a mouthed 'thanks'. Jubes just shook her head and walked over to Ms. Harkness.
"I don't have a partner…" she announced when she finally got her attention.
"Perfect, he doesn't either you can pair up," she answered and pointed to a boy hiding in the shadows.
"O…k…" she answered and walked over to a tall lean boy.
"Hi…" she greeted when she got close to him. He nodded but didn't say anything. Jubilee looked around and after a while turned to her partner, "So…I'm Jubilation Lee but you can just call me Jubilee…"
His blue eyes explored her body up and down. When he was done he looked into her own blue eyes. Jubilee felt shivers up her spine, his gaze was so intent, it seemed to be doing something to her.
Before she could pin point what it was he opened his mouth and said, "I'm Ray." She smiled at the sound of his voice but before either could say anything else Ms. Harkness voice spoke through a microphone.
"Let us start…please open your scripts of Romeo and Juliet."
"Romeo and Juliet…" Jubilee echoed to herself and looked at the script in annoyance.
"Don't like tragic romances?"
Jubes turned to Ray, "No it's not that. I just get tired of reading that play. We've been studying it since 6th grade," she replied. "I feel bad for whoever gets stuck doing with the tragic lovers parts."
"You two in the corner…"
Ray and Jubilee looked up to see Ms. Harkness pointing at them. "Study the parts of Romeo and Juliet…" she stated and turned to another pair.
Jubilee's eyes widened and then closed them and let, "Shit" come out her mouth.
Ray chuckled besides her and said, "Isn't irony such a bitch?" she glared at him before opening the small script in her hands and starting to read Juliet's part when she was on the balcony with Romeo.
