FYI: Sabine, Angelique and Desiree are mine, they others aren't……

Professor Xavier's POV is in this chapter.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Desiree:
The past few months have been the best of my life. I'm "coming out of my shell" as Dr. Grey calls it. Her, Professor Xa --- Father, Mr. Summers and Ms. Munro are happy about that. And now that I am "coming out of my shell," all the guys are noticing me and all the girls want to be my best friend. But no female can take upon the role as my best friend. Sabine already has that role. And I pay no heed to any guy but John. I don't know why all these things are suddenly happening but they are. And for once I fell happy.

Dr. Grey and Ms. Munro took Sabine and I shopping about a week after mine and John's first kiss. We had told them that they clothes that they had bought us were either too big or too small and indeed they were. They took us to all sorts of places. And thanks to Father's credit cards, we now have a whole new wardrobe. EVERYTHING from flirty blouses to tee-shirts, tank tops to spaghetti straps, leather pants to blue jeans, nice slacks to short shorts, mini skirts to full length skirts. Not to mention tennis shoes, shoes with heals, leather shoes, boots and then a lot of "sexy" lingerie. PLUS, hair accessories, earrings, jewelry boxes, rings, bracelets and necklaces. A typical outfit for me now, instead of baggy jeans and a baggy sweatshirt, is my very long, very soft and shiny blue hair hangs down past my butt, not in a bun, one of my new shirts, usually a tank top, and most of the time, a pair of jeans. I love it.

For some reason, I am no longer ashamed of my scars. While at breakfast one morning in my new clothes: a tank top belly shirt that said, "Shut up and Dance" and a pair of blue jeans, I told people about what happened to Sabine and myself. Everyone was sympathetic but they didn't seem to dwell on it. Not only did mine and Sabine's wardrobe get an extreme makeover, but so did we and so did our room. The day after we got a new wardrobe, Dr. Grey and Ms. Munro took us out for a "day of beauty." Our hair was trimmed by an inch, our eyebrows were plucked, and we went for a wax. Man, did that hurt! We all also got a manicure and a pedicure. I really don't care how my hands or feet look, but Dr. Grey and Ms. Munro insisted. I could tell that they were just trying to get on our good sides.

The day after the "day of beauty," we went shopping to give our plain white room a boost. Thankfully, Father let us stay in our room and not get two new roommates. We went to FYE in the Westchester Mall and listened to just about every CD there. I like a lot of them and so did Sabine, so we bought them. We now have about 150 CD's a piece. We also got a stereo from Target and several lamps, including a lava lamp. We bought a few rugs that were strategically placed in the bedroom to "tie it together." We got new bed sets, mine with suns, stars and moons, Sabine's was tie-dyed. To finish the room off, it got a paint job. It now has all sorts of shapes on it. Including handprints, footprints, suns, stars, moons, inter-locking circles, and just a whole bunch of weird designs. Stuff that was done in two days. But it still looks cool. I can't really describe it, other than that.

In the past 3 months, mine and John's relationship has gotten hot and heavy. Every chance we get, we are making out. I'm late to 3 of my classes everyday due to mine and John's make-out sessions, and the other 3 I'm not. That's because John and I have those three classes together. All in all, my life is perfect right now.

Sabine:
I'm relieved that Desiree has decided that we have been outcasts long enough. Out of respect and love for her, I dressed and acted the way she did. Quiet and reserved, talking on our telepathic link and nothing else. I look up to my sister, and I followed her lead, knowing that one day she would grow out of it. I'm so happy that she finally has.

We have had some major changes done to ourselves, our wardrobes and our room. Our room is no longer plain, but has many colors and is funky. I think it is a combination of our two personalities. We went to FYE one day, and bought about 150 CD's a piece. I bought just about everything, except for rap. Desiree didn't buy rap either. She says she doesn't like it, and I don't either. We bought CD's like: Rooney, The Beatles, Avril Lavigne, Kiss, Queen, Poison, ICP, Slipknot, Metallica, Kittie, Linkin' Park, Reba McEntire, George Strait, Alan Jackson, Martina McBride and a whole bunch of others. We had a waxing (which is something I will never do again), and a manicure and pedicure on our "day of beauty." Our wardrobe now shows off our curves and our scars.

Desiree has grown a lot of self-esteem since she met John. She isn't afraid to be beautiful, as God had intended her to be. She showed off her scars and wasn't ashamed by them. She even told everyone at breakfast one morning about how we got the scars. We now where outfits that are beautiful. A typical outfit for me is: my long, pink hair is free flowing, leather pants, and a very small, very tight shirt. I've taken to wearing a black leather trench coat and people say it suits me just fine. Desiree's self-esteem obviously isn't the only one's that has boosted since John.

We no longer hide, in any way, shape, or form. Our bodies, obviously, because of our new clothes. We don't sit in the back of class and avoid everyone at all costs. We sit in the middle row now and answer questions when called on. We even volunteer for questions.

Since we got our new clothes and have started talking, people really want to be our friends and are nice to us. They invite us to join them when they play foosball and when they are watching a movie. They say, "excuse me, please," and not, "get out of my way, freak," to us now. It is really great.

The best thing of all, though, was how blown away Professor Xav --- Father, Dr. Grey, Ms. Munro and Mr. Summers were when Desiree and I took an intelligence test. Their faces were priceless when they found out that both of us could speak 8 languages. Though, really, what did they think we were doing in our room the entire summer. They knew that we were smart because we always got "A's" on tests, quizzes and regular assignments. But they never knew that we were that smart.

But the only thing that I really am having trouble with is accepting the fact that my sister isn't only mine anymore. I have to share her with John. It's no longer Desiree and Sabine. It's Desiree, John and Sabine. I kind of feel like the 3rd person. And I have always heard that 3s a crowd. So I stay out their way as much as possible. Let them have as much "alone time" as possible. I found out how "alone time" was really spent. I walked in on them one day, and I never want to do that again. Not because it was disgusting, but I just don't want to see that. John was on top of Desiree and his hands were all over her. And her hands were all over them. Needless to say, I was very embarrassed and so were they.

But other than my sister's little neglect, my life couldn't possibly be better.

John:
If I thought that Desiree was absolutely gorgeous before, then I don't know what she is now. It absolutely mid boggling how she can look so……magnificent. But that's not even the word for it. I can't even name the word for how stunning she looks.

The changes started about a week after our kiss. She disappeared one day and came back with bags of clothes from at least 2 dozen different stores. EVERY kind of clothes imaginable. Leather pants, blue jeans, mini skirts, short shorts, tank tops, belly shirts… the list goes on and on. I am VERY thankful that everything shows off her curves. And she has very nice curves. As any fool can see.

The next day, they went out again. This time, for a "day of beauty," as she later told me. When she came back, I noticed her face looked a lot better. She said she had her eyebrows plucked. She also said her hair was trimmed, (though I couldn't see a difference), and she had a manicure and a pedicure. She later told me that Dr. Grey and Ms. Munro insisted that she and Sabine get one. She didn't care what her hands and feet looked like.

The day after that, she went out, yet again. This time she came back with bags and boxes full of stuff that I later learned were for her room. I saw the room before the "make-over," and it was a plain white, with plain white everything. I saw it after, and it was much more colorful. Every piece of furniture had been painted at least 3 colors. And the girls couldn't of been happier. The first day they painted everything, so they couldn't sleep in their room that night. Sabine slept in a spare bedroom that had been setup for both of them, but Desiree snuck down to my room and slept with me in my bed. Nothing happened, she just curled up next to me and slept. The next day, they put all of their new "items" in their room. And, by day's end, it looked just like a teenagers room should look. Unique. VERY Unique.

Desiree's sexual side, I guess you could say, has had a major boost. More than once Mr. Summers has caught us making out on the couch in front of the TV. More than once have I been late for class because of a "between-class" make out session. But truth be told, I could care less. I haven't yet found all the words I need to tell her, but I think she understands.

I am very happy that Desiree is smart. I hate when girls are all looks and don't have the brains to back up their looks. But Desiree isn't like that at all. She can speak 8 LANGUAGES!!!! If that's not smart, then I don't know what is. I didn't fall for her looks. I fell for her smile. The fact that she has the personality and brains just added on to the reasons that I love her. And we share a lot of common interests, which we found out together over the past few months. We both like pizza, rock and punk music, The Simpson's, and horror movies. Kind of like two rebel badasses. I can't say "American" because she told me she was born in France and then moved to England.

I have been talking to some people and they say that we seem like the "match made in Heaven." Two people, who have gone against what others said and did their entire lives, have finally found each other. I must agree. I can't remember ever being this happy before.

Professor Xavier:
The changes in Desiree and Sabine have been remarkable. They have gone from completely mute students who stayed out of everybody's way to outgoing, popular teenage girls. They have even decided to come to me a few times a month to just talk. I owe John Allerdyce a great deal of thanks. I must make a note of the things that have changed with in the girls.

"Oracle" as she was called now prefers to be called Desiree. Her full name, she revealed to me in one of our sessions, is Desiree Marie-Rose LaFluer. She then added on that since I adopted them her new name was, Desiree Marie-Rose LaFluer Xavier. Quite a tongue-twister I should say. Desiree, instead of wearing the baggy jeans and sweatshirts, now prefers to wear "tight jeans that show off" her "curves" and tank tops. The scars on her back are very severe. They cover her back, neck, shoulders, thighs and some even go down to her calves. She was quiet and fearful, but protective in a silent way of Sabine. I hope she grows out of the quiet fearfulness of everything around her. She is now very active in sports, including: softball, soccer, swimming and basketball. Yet, also finds time to participate in her other interests, such as: drawing, painting, sculpting and photography. I've seen some of her artwork and it is very good. Then there is also her languages. She seems to have a natural talent for foreign languages and I strongly considered that she be a European and Oriental diplomat. The languages that she can speak are: Romany (as her first language), French, English, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and German. She also has a natural ability of persuasion which I believe would help the "mutant co-existence" cause. Her powers are among the strongest I have ever seen in a teenager, and the most dangerous. She has the ability of elektrokenisis, she can create and control electricity; she can see into people's past, present and future just by a touch, in other words, foresight. The bad part about this power is the fact that people remain inside her head and I believe it will get crowded for her. Her final ability is more sisterly as she has a psychic connection with Sabine.

"Hydra" now prefers to be called Sabine. Her full name, revealed to me shortly after her sister revealed hers, is Sabine Gianna-Violet LaFluer Xavier. I believe it is also a tongue-twister. Sabine revealed to me that the reason she wore the baggy clothes was because she loves her sister more than anything else in the world. She would never have let Desiree be isolated and alone because of her scars. Like her sister, her wardrobe has upgraded. She now typically wears leather pants, with little shirts and a black trench coat. For some reason, it suits her. The scars are less severe on Sabine, just on her sides. Unlike Desiree, Sabine runs he mouth every chance she gets. She is not afraid in this world and tells people "how it is." She doesn't beat around the bush, which is rare these days. But, like Desiree, she is also very active in sports, but tends to lean towards singing and dancing. She is very talented about that. She has other interests, obviously, as well: writing poetry and songs (mostly about the past seven years), practicing her guitar that I bought her and playing the piano. She is more musically inclined that I first anticipated. Like Desiree, she has a natural talent for languages and can speak five, including: Romany (as her first language), French, English, German, and Italian. She tends to use her feminine wiles to get what she wants. Her powers, while more minor, are more numerous. She has Aquakenisis, which is the ability to create and control water; she can sense other mutants; a powerful empathic ability; and a psychic connection with Desiree. A powerful mutant she will be.

That's all for now folks…sorry it took so long for me to update…thanx to those who reviewed.
