AN: Sweet! I've actually gotten a couple of reveiws! Yea! Listen, you are going to HATE the shortness of this chapter (feels very guilty), but hopefully I can post another one for you all tonight when I'm able to get home (around 11:00ish)...check in and see, I'll do my best.
paprika90: Thank you so much! I was scard that the chaps were too short- they will get longer!
Jem: That's fantastic! It's always good to see readers on the dge of thier seats...bwa-ha-ha!
fireinu: (blushes) Okay, sadly enough, I had to look up what a Mary Sue is...but, thanks! I'm glad you agree that rose is not one. I think it's stupid to have a perfect caracter...where is the drama? spiderman, for example: why do we love him? Not becasue he's perfect, but because he gets his butt kicked, then still manages to get up and find a way to save the world. (and, hopefully, make next month's rent!)
Thanks, everyone! I hope you continue to R&R!
Discliamer: I don't own nadda, zip, zero, zilch, or the X-men.
Chapter 4
A while later, Rose and Marv stepped out of the office.
Rose looked around as the principal turned and said "Well, I'll see you tomorrow then, Rose! 7:45 sharp! Glad to have you here." The door shut softly behind them as they walked for the door.
"Well," said Marv, "I reckon you're a Bayville high-schooler now!"
Rose smiled, then sighed, and said, "I just hope I'll do alright. I've been studying ahead of my grade for a while, so I should be okay scholastically...but I just hope I can fit in." She watched as astudent passed by with a indifferent look.
"Now don't you worry, Rose, how could anyone not like a pretty thing like you?"
Rose glancedatMarv. "I'mnotso sure." She thought, nervously.
"Come on, let's go back to the diner. Aggie's probably burnt the place down by now."
Rose smiled at his concerned look. "Well" she thought, "Even if this isn't the town I'm looking for, at least Marv keeps me busy...and amused!"
