Chapter 6

I had arrived at about 11:10 a.m. Tore up Rogue's face at about 12:15. And by the 1:00 the rumors had spread.

The main rumor is that I'm supposed to be a damn spy for Magneto. The other main one is that Sabertooth's daughter had shown up at the school trying to escape her psycho father. The Professor had taken pity on her and let her stay. Later she attacked Rogue for no reason when Rogue was being nice to her. (gag)

I'm currently sitting against a tree at the edge of the forest eating my lunch. Since the whole 'Rogue Defacing Incident' happened, the whole school has been giving me the cold shoulder.

This one teacher, Miss Monroe, won't even look at me.

I hear footsteps but don't look up until I see a worn out pair of sneakers with black marker all over them in front of me. When I look up, I see a boy that looked like he had walked out of sci-fi punk band.

He had shaggy black hair that came to his shoulders with deep purple streaks in it. Some of his bangs fell into his face and mostly covered his left eye. His eyes (gorgeous) were strangely beautiful. The whites were deep black, and the iris was almost the same shade of purple that was in his hair. The pupils were the normal black, but his were a bit more dilated than normal. The purple part of his eyes gave off a soft pleasant glow. These eyes had long lashes and were rather big. This adding to the boyish looks caused by his narrow face and ashy complexion. He was dressed in baggy black clothes and gave off a feeling of relaxation

"Hi." He said looking casual.

Finding my voice I managed to get out an audible, yet breathy "Hi."

"Can I sit down?" He asked looking at me with his glowing eyes.

Unable to find my voice, which was off in a corner fanning itself dreamily, I simply nodded my head.

He sits down next to me cross-legged and holds out his hand.

"I'm Skylar Jones."

"Tawny Creed." I say shaking his hand as if I might break it.

We sit in a some-what awkward silence for a few moment that fell like an eternity, until he finally says,

"Is it true?"

I look at him in confusion. "Is what true?"

"That you're the daughter of Sabertooth."

"Oh that," Feeling quite disappointed I admit it. "Yes, that's true."

"Oh man, really? Is it true that you attacked Rogue?"

"No, but I got in to a fight with her."

"Why?"

"Because she was bad-mouthing me and my dad."

"Oh." He looked slightly disappointed that there weren't any gory details.

"Is it true that you are a spy for Magneto?"

Now I'm not only disappointed. Now, I'm disappointed, insulted, and annoyed.

"No, I've never met him and I never want to meet him. Is this the only reason you came over here? Because if it is, you can leave now."

A super gorgeous punk boy is talking to me, but only so he can go tell his posse what he found out!

He suddenly got an expression that people get when they suddenly remember something. About a second after it appeared it was replaced with an expression of mild shyness.

"Oh, I'm sorry. You must think I'm a real jackass now. I was originally going to ask you something else, but my curiosity got the best of me."

He looked at me with sincere apology in his eyes and I nearly had to stop myself from melting.

"What I came over to ask you was, well, would you have lunch with me tomorrow?"

He looked at me hopefully and his cheeks colored slightly.

I couldn't help but look at him in disbelief and had to use every strand of self-control in my body from jumping up and screaming in hysterical happiness.

"Really? Sure, I'd love to." OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG! (continues for thirty lines)

"Great!" He says breaking into a grin. "Meet me here tomorrow at lunch."

"Okay." I say nodding and smiling.

"I'll talk to you tomorrow," He says standing up.

"All right."

After hearing my answer he smiles and walks away.

This is great! I have a cute, potential boyfriend.

I lean back against the tree and look around. The school really is a beautiful sight. I mean, a huge forest surrounds it, the mansion itself looks Victorian. It must have been in Xavier's family for the longest time.

While I'm looking around I see that teacher, Miss Monroe, walking toward me.

Once she was close enough I could see that her muscles were tense. She doesn't trust me.

When she stopped, she was standing about four feet infront of me.

"Hello." I say trying to sound as friendly as possible.

"Why are you here." She wasn't asking a question, but demanding an answer.

"The Professor is helping me find my dad, so I can take him home."

Her cocoa complexion paled at my words and her sapphire eyes widened to the size of chestnuts.

"Why by the great heavens would he do that?"

Her voice came out weak.

"Because" I say looking her in the eyes. "He listened to me."

She gives me a suspicious look.

Getting annoyed, I jump up and grab me pack and sling it over my shoulder. Rolling my eyes when she jumps back several steps, I say, "Look, just go talk to Xavier and ask him why I'm polluting you're precious school. He'll tell you."

Without giving her a chance to reply, I walk away with a half amused, half satisfied smile on my lips.
