A/N Well, it's Thursday and you know what that means...new chapter! Yeah! Thanks for everyone who has favorited, reviewed, or is following me or this story.

Lula182: Ha, ha, I swear it's a total coincidence!

DGMSilverAirhead03: You'll just have to see how she deals with him.

The following morning I woke up and quickly got dressed. Rogue was gone, probably to shower. I didn't bother, I like taking showers at night so I didn't look like a drowned cat during class. I somehow found my way to breakfast by myself and sat down next to Piotr, who was munching on an apple. Kitty soon joined us, and then Rogue and Bobby. John didn't come in until five minutes before class and only grabbed a granola bar before we all headed off to class.

As we entered the classroom I saw Professor Munroe standing next to the chalkboard. I instantly recognized her as the woman who had answered the door. Rogue and Bobby sat behind Piotr and I as Professor Storm started the class. The class wasn't horrible, but math wasn't my favorite subject.

Once the bell rang, the four of us proceeded to Mutant History with Jean, I mean Dr. Gray. I liked her already and thought she was good for Uncle Scott. Speak of the devil, I happened to see my uncle running out of Dr. Gray's class just before we reached it. The class itself was really interesting, I've always loved history and this was about my own species.

During the half hour break, the four of us met up with John and Kitty before Kitty and I started for Ethics with Professor X. I swear I've never been in a more stimulating class. The Professor was an amazing teacher and I really enjoyed his class. However, it all ended too soon and I was off to P.E. Even though it was taught by my uncle and Storm and it would help me control my mutation… it was my only class that I was alone, with John. 'Oh, this is gonna be so much fun.'

When I walked into the exercise room Professor Storm handed me a black tank top and a pair of gray sweats. 'These are way better than the uniforms back at my old school.' I quickly changed into them and headed outside where Professor Summers and the rest of the class were. Uncle Scott told us to run two laps around the entire mansion. We set of, me in the lead but John was right on my heels. I had run track at my old school so I could run the laps no problem.

I collapsed on the grass when I was finished, at least half the class had a whole other lap to go. I put my knees up and had my hands above my head as my breathing and pulse slowly went back to normal. I closed my eyes.

Suddenly, impossibly hot hands grabbed my wrists. My eyes flashed open to find John's arrogantly smirking face right above mine, only upside-down. 'Damn, why does he have to be so cute?'

"Aww, it little Shocky tired," he cooed in a fake baby voice.

I glared up at him, his proximity was entangling my thoughts, "Get off of me, hothead."

"Naw, I like this angle." I narrowed my eyes as I shocked him. "Ow!" He released my wrists and jumped back. I rolled onto my knees. The matchstick sent me a glare as I smirked at him.

"Serves you right, flame boy."

"This isn't over, Charge."

"Wouldn't dream of it.

Neither Uncle Scott nor Storm noticed our exchange and soon the class continued. We lifted some weights before working on our individual mutations. Storm was trying to teach me how to radiate the electricity all over my body instead of just my hands and wrists. It kind of worked; by the end of the class I could radiate it to my shoulders.

John and I walked to the cafeteria for Lunch, after changing out of our sweaty P.E. clothes. Rogue, Kitty, Piotr, and Bobby were already there. I practically devoured my Lunch; I was extremely hungry from the physical exertion.

The conversation was very lax and friendly. We laughed at each other's jokes and listened to each other's complaints. I was quickly becoming good friends with all of them, even John. Soon enough Piotr, Rogue, Bobby, and I were off too Mutant Biology with Dr. Gray. It was kind of interesting, but I didn't really want to know what was going on inside my body or DNA.

Afterwards I joined Kitty in Professor X's classroom once again, this time for Literature. Again, I was seriously impressed with the lecturing and overall instruction of the lesson. I already loved reading and this was just the icing on the cake of my school day.

Finally, I went to Study Hall with Bobby, Piotr, and Rogue. The class was quiet as we all worked on homework. About twenty minutes in, John burst through the door.

Uncle Scott glanced at him, "Do you need something, John?"

"Yeah, I got transferred here," John answered as he walked over and handed Professor Summers a note. Uncle Scott nodded and gestured for John to sit at the table consisting of the four of us. I was slightly surprised that he actually started working. A few minutes later John pushed a piece of paper towards me.

Hey Shockster. I glared at him but figured I might as well write back.

Don't you have better things to do then bother me, Charcoal? John merely smirked at my reply.

Ooh, good one. You didn't seem to mind earlier Shorty.

Oh, so now you're gonna make fun of my height? And in case me shocking you early wasn't enough of a hint, stay out of my personal bubble unless you're invited.

Will I ever be invited, Sparky?

If you play your cards right, Smokestack.

We stopped writing to work on our homework before the school day ended and we were able to relax for a while before dinner.

That night after dinner I climbed into bed content, but slightly confused. John's face ran through my mind. He was the source of my confusion. I sighed before falling into a deep sleep.

Review!
