A warm and soft head of hair lye on his chest, rising and falling with his every breath. But completely unaware of this he didn't notice how her entire body was cuddled next to his. Legs formed around other legs and her arms folded happily across his torso. And he of course had his arm stretched protectively around her shoulder enjoying the warmth and the feeling of having her slow, steady breath follow his.

The t.v had long ago been turned off and the only light that entered the room was from the overhead light above the sink in the kitchen. But even through protest some light from the distant moon could been seen reflecting through the windows.

Toad heard her sigh as he shifted his weight. And to the exact moment could almost hear her eyes flutter open. But realizing where she was and who she was wrapped around Eva quickly found herself back to the normal sitting positing aside him. His eyes weren't quite open, but she could tell he was awake. But she smiled at the attempt, and leaning into his face just slightly she made sure he could hear her restrained whisper.

"I know your in there...you can't fool me." She whispered, but when no response came from the statement so she decided to take a different approach and smirking as she leaned into his side even more she began to sing:

"We'll make a great pair We'll stick together through and through Like glue.
I don't wanna be a cook or a fireman.
And I don't wanna play trombone in the marching band.
I just wanna be a care Bear Like you!
I just wanna be a Care Bear..."

The stupid song seemed innocent enough yet she couldn't herself to stop laughing as the peaceful look on his face turned to one that look like he had just eaten his socks.

"I REALLY hate you right now..." He stated with his eyes still closed. But couldn't help but join her a moment later in his uncharacteristic laugher.

"Well...never the less," She said glancing at her watch. "You better get going, my parents are going to be home soon."

"Yeah." He said with slight smile on his face as he picked himself up off the couch but stopped dead in his tracks as a cold rush of air hit his side where she had just been. He looked back only to see her staring at the spot where he had just gotten up. He noticed her shivering.

"Um...bye then." He stated with aggregation as he headed for the door.

"Yeah bye." Eva but her lip nervously. "You want to hang out again...some time?" She asked slowly and without the slight hint of hesitation.

"Yeah..." He mumbled with a sadder tone than she would of expected. "I'd like that.

"How about this Saturday?" She asked with a pleasant curiosity. She couldn't see him cringe with regret as he mentioned that day.
"Yeah...I'll see you then." And before Eva could reply he was out the door and had faded into the night.

Furring her brow in frustration she sighed helplessly as she slid further into the couch wondering why his mood had turned so morbid.

Friday.

Damn. Toad thought as he violently shook his head. The calendar betrayed him once again as he started blankly at the upcoming date.

Now what in the hell was he going to do? This wasn't right...

You have a job to do and you know that! Screamed the more demanding voice in his head. He sat up and began to pace the room and ruffling his hand through his hair as he had the instant memory of a certain blonde beauty sleeping at his side tenderly and undisturbed.

"This can't happen..." He muttered unaware to the body entering the room.

"What can't happen?" Asked Mystique as she gracefully made her way into the room.

"What do you want?" He asked through gritted teeth with his back still turned. She made a disapproving sound and sat at the table in the center of the room.

"Hasn't anyone ever told you not to answer a question with a question?" She asked with obvious amusement in her voice.

"Well...they obviously haven't...have they?" He replied with the scarism turned on to full speed as he stayed still not wanting to see the smile he knew was creeping up on her face.

The look of boredom quickly laced her face. "I just wanted to ask you something...Mortimer" The way she said that name made him tightened his grip on the fixture of the wall his was holding onto.

"Do you have any bad habits?" She asked not waiting for him to answer.

"What in the bloody hell are you talking about?" He replied angrily

"It's a simply question really. Do you have any bad habits?"

"Nope." He said desperate to get her to leave him alone and let him think. "I'm the exact definition of perfect! Even the pope is jealous of my manners!"

She of course didn't laugh simply kicked the chair she was sitting in across the room before exiting.

He turned sharply at the destroyed chair in the corner. Now what in the hell was that about? He asked himself yet received no answers, just the lonely images in his head of the girl he couldn't get off his mind.
