Hello people's, you know, i really like reviews, so Reveiw!
Disclaimer: don't own sky high, but i would like a piece of Steven Strait.
Lori used her telekinesis to deposit her safely on the ground near the house, she knew that no one would be home and solved the problem of the locked door by breaking down the back one.

She stalked up the stairs and into her room, setting her CD player as high as it would go, she laid down and fell asleep.

When she woke up, she could hear voices downstairs, partially attributed to the fact that someone had turned her CD player off. She fought back the voices of the surrounding neighbourhood and their thoughts and sat up as someone walked into her bedroom, flicking the lights on and blinding her.

"Hey!" she snapped.

"Sorry." Said Warren. "Are you alright?" he asked.

"No, that hurt." She complained.

"I meant about today, the way you left." He said.

"You would too if you had all these thoughts in your head." She said, rubbing her eyes.

"Maybe we shouldn't practise at school." He said.

"I second that motion." She said.

"Wanna come round to my place for dinner?" he asked.

"Sure." Lori accepted as she stood up and looked around for clean clothes. Finding a pair of pants, she was about to change when she realised that Warren was still standing there. "Turn around." She ordered, he obliged as she pulled the pants on.

Running a brush through her unruly curls before tying them back with a ribbon.

"Okay, lets go." She said.

They walked to Warren's apartment, talking quietly as they did about things like school and their parents. When they got there, Lori was surprised to find that he had made them a three-corse meal that agreed totally with her empty stomach.

"Did you make this all yourself?" she asked as they finished.

"My mom helped a bit." He admitted.

"Let me guess." She said. "Your idea of cooking is throwing something in a fireproof dish, holding it and lighting your hand on fire?"

"That's about it." He said.

"My mom sucked at cooking, as soon as I was old enough to light the stove on fire I was making my own meals." Lori told him.

"Were your parents around a lot?" he asked.

"There was always one of them looking out for me, sometimes I was left with a babysitter or one of their evil friends, but I was always taken care of." She said.

"I remember the time I spent with my Dad, he was evil, yes, but he was a good father." Warren said.

"I love my parents, but I don't agree with them." Lori said sadly. "Can we change the subject?" she asked.

"Sure, want to watch a movie?" he asked.

"I'll probably fall asleep." She warned.

"You better not snore then." He said. Smiling, she walked into the living room with him.

as she predicted she fell asleep, she didn't wake up until the next morning, blinking, she was wondering why her alarm hadn't gone off. Looking next to her, she saw Warren and then she remembered that she had fallen asleep during the movie.

Sitting up, she walked to where she vaguely remembered the kitchen being, she stopped when she saw Warren's mom standing at the bench reading a paper.

"Morning." Said Kate brightly as Lori walked into the kitchen.

"Good morning Ms. Peace." Said Lori, reaching for the coffee sluggishly.

"Not a morning person?" asked Kate.

"Not really no, I usually get up and go." She explained.

"the bus comes through here in half an hour, I swung by your house last night and got some clothes for you." She said, holding up a bag.

"Thanks, how did you know I was staying the night?" Lori asked, taking the bag.

"Warren called while I was at work and explained how you fell asleep." She said. "The bathrooms down the hall."

"Great." Said Lori, in the bathroom she discovered that the bag held not only clean clothes, nut her toothbrush, hairbrush and a headband.

Quickly showering, she dressed in the long black skirt and black singlet shirt in the bag. For a change, she pulled all her hair up on top of her head, pinning it in place and allowing a few stray curls to hang around her face. She noticed that as she applied her makeup, her skin tone had paled more.

Stepping out of the bathroom, she let an impatient Warren in, she smiled at how much of a morning person he was, not much more than her. when he got out, she was looking for her boots, which she had taken off and put somewhere, she had just pulled them from underneath the sofa when Warren pulled her up and kissed her.

"Warren, Lori, the bus is coming." Called Kate. Warren rolled his eyes and grabbed his bag as they walked out the front door.

"Bye Ms. Peace." Lori called as they left.

When they got on the bus, Lori received several looks from people as she sat down near the back, lowering her mind shields, she realised that they were jealous that she was getting on the bus with Warren.

No one really paid them much attention after that, Will and Layla smiled in their direction, but they didn't sit near the back like Lori and Warren. Arriving at school, Lori escaped early to go hand in homework to the teacher and explain why she hadn't attended yesterday's class.

Hearing the bell ring, she walked off to Weapons and Tactics class, sitting next to Warren she pulled out her book and began taking notes. The class was interrupted by a knock on the door, Lori didn't bother to look up, but used the time to strengthen her mental walls.

"Class we have a new student." The teacher, Mr. Payne said from the front of the room. "His name is Joshua Peterson."

Lori's head shot up to look at the new student, who spotted Lori and smirked. Lori put her head down again, hoping that he didn't notice the empty chair on the other side of her, her good luck had run out, he spotted the chair and walked straight to it.

"Lori Lea, been a while." He said taking a seat.

"Do you know Lori?" asked Warren from the other side of her.

"He used to." She muttered, doing her best not to look at him. "Don't look him in the eye." She warned.

"Lori Lea, being so defensive, anyone would think you liked the guy." He smirked again.

"It is possible Josh, for me to like someone other than you." She said, still not meeting him in the eye.

"Why do you call her Lori Lea?" asked Warren, looking forward in a gesture that might have been pretending to pay attention to the teacher, but was actually heeding Lori's warning."

"Her full name is Lorandrea Lea, didn't you know that?" Josh said. "I'm Josh by the way." He introduced himself.

"Warren." He said, pretending to take notes. "How do you know Lori?" he asked.

"Me and her go way back." He said. "Remember Lori Lea?"

"Shut it Josh or so help me there wont be a part of you left by the time I'm finished." She warned, she looked up and straight into his eyes.

His were a starling green colour, they had the appearance of being so deep, one could get lost in those eyes, but that was the point.

"What's the matter Lori, what's with the defensive walls?" he asked.

"You're getting lazy." She said, looking away. "Time was you could have seen straight through them."

"I don't need to do that to know what's on your mind." Josh told her. Lori felt her blood run cold.

"How did you get hero placement then?" she asked, "Because last time I looked, being an asshole wasn't counted as hero powers, even for someone as good at it as you."

"What are his powers?" Warren asked Lori.

"He looks into your eyes, and he can do anything, use your powers, spill your biggest secret, take total control of you, kill you." Lori explained. "Things that take people with telepathy years to learn."

"Lori Lea, nice to know you remembered." Josh leered at her.

"It's Lori now, and don't you dare think for one minute we are back where we once were." She said.

"Nice to see you got over me quickly." Josh muttered.

"It's been over a year, give up." Lori said scathingly.

"And if I don't want to?" he asked.

"Then I rip you to pieces." She threatened, standing up as the bell went.

"See you later, Lori." He said, sneering her name.

Warren walked with her to Hero Maths, a class that didn't deserve the hero title, being maths all the same.

"What was that about?" he asked Lori.

"I knew Josh a while ago, we grew up together, we had a thing, it ended badly and he never got over it." She explained quickly.

"What kind of thing?" he asked. Lori winced.

"Our parents were both villains, when they went out, we spent a lot of time together and we were a couple for a while, then he decided that it would be fun to be evil, I didn't agree so I dumped him." she said.

"That's it?" he asked sceptically.

"I'm not going into the full details of our relationship, he will no doubt do that for me when he wants to piss me off." Lori said. "And for the record, yes I dressed up in a maids outfit, but it was just me and him not a room full of people, see you later." She said, walking into the classroom.

"Wait, what maids outfit?" he asked. Lori shrugged innocently as Warren left for his classroom.

"Did I hear maids outfit?" asked a voice in her ear.

"Yes, you did, you also see the maids outfit whenever you look at the pictures you refuse to give back to me." Lori said scathingly to Josh.

"What can I say, one day a magazine will pay lots of money for them." He said in threatening voice.

"One, I was underage when they were taken, no magazine will buy them, two, you really need a new girlfriend, three, I will hurt you if you don't back off." She threatened.

"Yes, but I'm sure the male population of the school would enjoy them if I posted them around." He said, a smirk not far from his lips.

"You wouldn't live to see another day if that happened." She said, not looking at him.

"You think you can take me on?" he asked.

"Yes, remember who my parents are?" she said.

"I do, but do you remember mine?" he asked.

"Miss invade your brain and Mr. Charming?" Lori asked innocently.

"Play nice Lori." Josh whispered as the teacher came along.

"Bite me." she muttered. "Miss I don't feel well, can I go see the nurse?" she asked the teacher.

"Sure Lori." She said, letting her out of the classroom.

Lori sent the rest of her class in the nurse's office pretending to be sick, as soon as the bell went for lunch, she miraculously became healthy and walked to the cafeteria.

"Hey." Said Layla, dropping her tray across from Lori. "Why did you skip out on class?" she asked.

"Was it anything to do with the hot guy sitting next to you?" asked Magenta.

"Yes and no." Lori said, her head buried in her book.

Warren sat down next to her. "A maids outfit?" he asked.

"Two words." Said Lori. "Never and Again."

"What was that about a maid?" asked Layla as she traded sandwiches with Magenta, who then swapped with Zach.

"Nothing." Said Lori.

"Hot new guy at three o'clock." Magenta muttered. "He's walking over here."

"Not if I have anything to say about it." Warren muttered.

"Hey, you must be Lori's friends." Josh said, piling on the innocent act.

"Yes, who are you?" asked Magenta, I could see Zach looked a little hurt.

"I'm Josh, one of Lori's old friends." He said.

"Yes, so old he's prehistoric." Lori muttered. Layla shot her a look.

"Peterson." Came a voice from behind us. "What are you doing here?"

"Hey Lash." Said Josh. "Speed." He nodded.

"Trust them to be friends." Lori commented.

"Do you two know each other?" asked Zach as Josh finished talking to Lah and Speed and had decided to sit down, next to Lori.

"Okay, back off." She said, motioning for him to move over and Warren as well.

"I forgot you weren't a fan of being touched sometimes." Josh said, rubbing it in.

"No, that's just the effect of having you around." She snapped.

"Really, because I was under the illusion that you like being touched by me." he said.

"I did, then you became an asshole." She said. Layla looked between them confused.

"Don't look at his eyes." Lori snapped and her eyes diverted to the table.

"Peterson, what the hell are you doing with my cousin?" came a voice.

"Will Stronghold, I see you got powers." Josh commented.

"How do you see that?" asked Magenta.

"Because he wouldn't be here if he hadn't." Said Josh.

"Fair enough." She shrugged.

"You, Up." Lori ordered Josh, dragging him to his feet and out of the cafeteria.

Outside in the hallway she used her powers to slam him against a locker.

"Don't you dare ruin what I have going here, don't you dare. Stay out of my life, stay out of my pants, not that you will ever have the opportunity to go back their, leave me and my friends alone." She pushed him back up against the lockers. Then she let him go and walked back to the cafeteria.

"You know." He called behind her. "Lucas is on his way, few days he'll be here."

Lori stopped, feeling her blood turn to ice. She shook her head and walked on, wondering how she was going to explain Lucas to her friends.


Oh, the past comes back to bite her on the ass. Now review, thankyou
