Note: This is a little spin-off of my previous story, Challenges. I wrote it down during math class. Bad me,I know.
Can You Live Without?
"You couldn't last two seconds without me."
"Could too."
"Sure." Wild Thing smirked and pushed Pyro's shoulder playfully. They were sitting on the roof of Xavier's school, debating over whether Pyro could stand living without Lara or not. Pyro glared at her, annoyed.
"I'll prove it, too. Tomorrow, I'll avoid you. I'll make sure I don't see you the entire day!" Lara grinned in amusement.
"You're on."
John woke up the next morning, prepared for the bet and ready to go. He reached over to grab his lighter and hit plain wood instead. He looked down frantically at his desk and his heart rate sped up.
"IT'S GONE!"
He ran down the hallway, burst in on Logan's fiancé, causing her to jump and mess up the painting she had been working on at the moment.
"IS IT IN HERE!" he shouted and began throwing paintbrushes out of a nearby drawer.
"John! What are you…!" He was out of the door before she could finish the sentence.
This went on for hours.
Zoom…under the bed.
Zoom…into the gym.
Zoom…into the Professor and out the door.
Zoom…through the lab.
ZOOM!
He shot down the west hallway, trampled Bobby, and ran into the records room. Not a good idea. All the files on the school and its inhabitants flew into the air during John's maniac frenzy and ended up in a messy heap on the floor.
The bruised and battered Bobby peeked around the corner, saw John's current state, let out a yelp, and hid in the closet before Pyro was able to trample him again.
It was close to three o' clock by the time John had turned into the insane person he was now. He whipped around the corner and sped into the kitchen. His jaw dropped. There was Wild, lounging in a chair and clicking his Zippo. A cocky smirk appeared on her face.
"Told you."
