I'm just preparing you for the jump because next Chapter will be 11 months later!

"What?"

"Are they kissing?" Lydia and Nightwing were mildly confused at what they had just witnessed from the car window.

"It looks like it," Nightwing added, rather sarcastically.

"Wait, who's that?" Lydia asked pointing to a figure that had walked out if the door."Oh, he's cute!"

"You're single right? You should go talk to him!" Nightwing said. Lydia bashed him on the knee.

"Wo. What's happening"

"Uh oh." They both got out of the car wanting to stop the fight.

Connor and Xavier

"Who are you?" Connor asked full of distaste.

"Xavier. Anna's actual friend,"

"What do you mean 'actual'?" Connor asked.

"I was the one there helping Anna when she was upset every night. And what did you do? Huh? Going to bars? Picking up other girls and you think you could come here, kiss her and make that all go away?...Jerk,"

"Xavier!" Anna said in shock.

"No, Anna it's ok. If this pretty boy wants to be the big man, let him. I can't be bothered. Lets just go home."

"She can't" Xavier added.

"Oh yeah? Because you have feelings for her?"

"That's not the point"

"You have feelings for me?" Anna asked thinking they were just close friends.

"Course, what you kiss your other friends and wear their hoodie when your cold?"

"I...umm" Thinking about it Anna had thought she had quite a close relationship with Xavier.

"Right, that's it. I don't care if pretty boys got feelings for you. We're going home." Connor interrupted.

"I can't, I've got to finish my course. If I leave I won't be allowed to come back and my power would be drained!"

"Stuff that, we're going," Connor added tugging her by her sleeve.

"No. I cant. You know that!"

"Anna you get in that car, I swear to the Gods." Connor laughed out. He got so close.

"Let go of my arm!" Anna wrenched her arm out of his grasp. "You go back. For good. Don't expect me to do as you say. Come on wuss. Lets go." Xavier put his arm around Anna and they went back into the common room. Connor watched them cuddle on the sofa while Anna sobbed gently. He kicked a massive dent in a blue BMW and went for a run. Cursing himself for his anger to get the better of him. What had she called him? Wuss? They even had cute nicknames for each other. He couldn't help but notice that they looked cute together. He was more handsome than him. Older and mature. He realised what he had done. If he had lost Anna before. Now he had really lost her and he hated himself for it.

"Well done" Nightwing congratulated Connor sarcastically as he pushed through the couple. Lydia and Nightwing watched him run off with his hoodie over his head. They thought they saw a tear making its way down his face.
