Chapter twenty-five

Strange looks?

Lorena followed the two boys who practically trampled her on the way down to breakfast. Kurt the blue fuzzy one, and John, the ordinary looking boy with a constant grin plastered on his face. Just as the trio reached the group a small boy squeezed his way out of the hub of teens, followed by a boy who looked to be guiding a girl with white stripes in her hair. At first none of them noticed Kurt, Morph or Lorena approaching, and for Lorena's sake it was a good job. As Kurt and Morph would tease her for many years to come, she was 'practically drooling over him'. Lorena stared at the tall, dark-ish haired and tanned boy in front of her, He's completely hot! Oh, why can't be the one he's talking to? Bet that's his girlfriend. All the good ones are always taken… I wish I was her, she's pretty too… it's just not fair!

Morph noticed Lorena checking Remy out, nudged Kurt. Who after looking back at Kurt with the same mischievous smirk carved in his face? Asked the infamous, silent question which, would characterise the two for the rest of their lives. 'You or me?'

Morph nodded, stepping up next to Lorena said in his 'business' voice. "Photographs last longer you know? I could recommend many digital cameras for you why not take a look at our special offer? Oh and may I offer a tissue? You seem to be drooling a tad."

Lorena virtually jumped out of her skin and unconsciously reached to wipe her mouth. Turning to face the two boys she saw them laughing their heads of, scowling and shooting a dirty look at both of them she mumbled. "I wasn't staring, just … never mind." Regaining some of her senses she turned back to Morph opened her mouth to say 'and I wasn't drooling!' when someone shouted, "whoa! You are so cool!"

Immediately making the trio look down at a small boy, with messy brown hair, and dark blue eyes. He was wearing clothes that looked a little too big on him. He had a light blue, long sleeve top, with some sort of sports logo in white on the front and a pair of darker blue jeans, rolled up at the bottom and a pair scruffy trainers which, looked ready to fall apart. His neck was craned up, his small face housing two big, bright eyes, which were sparkling in childish curiosity, studying Kurt intensely.

Morph simply burst out laughing and Lorena had an amused grin on her face. Kurt however was blushing furiously, causing his cheeks to look like a bunch of raspberries and conscious of the fact that his tail was swaying, and trying desperately to keep it still. Trying to look anywhere but at Jamie he looked to the two teens that squeezed there way out behind Jamie. The girl looked curiously at Kurt; the boy however looked at him… normally. Kurt had never experienced this before; even morph had been momentarily stunned by his real appearance, however what Kurt didn't know was that Remy had been momentarily 'surprised' (as Remy would say years later), he was just used to not showing those kind of emotions for more than a fleeting second. In fact to see Remy LeBeau surprised you would have to do one of four things A. do/see something earth shatteringly strange/incredible. (In his words), B. be Rogue (how she did this no one not even Remy himself would ever know), C. have the mutant ability to slow down or stop time or D. know him really, really, really well.

Smiling broadly, Remy greeted the blue fuzzy elf. "Bonjour homme. 'M Remy, de petit wit de big, starin' eyes who is currently non-responsive is Jamie."

Rogue who had regained the power of speech realised Remy had allowed her, to introduce herself. "Hi, Ah'm Rogue."

Kurt smiled broadly, quickly regaining his friendly, cheerful character. "Guten morgan! You must be ze new guys, nein? I'm Kurt, zis is Morph and Lorena, zey are new too."

"hi."

"good morning! lovely to meet you all, i am Morph, or John or whatever. you guys had breakfast yet? i'm starving! c'mon lets get something to eat!"
