Blake Misaki had been taking a long walk through the streets of Westchester, thinking to herself about the events that had recently transpired in her life. She had gone through a break up for reasons that she still wasn't even clear on and worse one of her good friends had made an attempt on his own life.
In the heat of the moment on the day of Jamie's suicide attempt, she had disclosed the darkest secret that she had to everyone she knew. She spent every day fighting the demons she had been hiding since the day she escaped from Weapon X.
She had made her way to the enterance to the city park when she spotted a familiar face down the path.
Sitting against a tree, looking rather solem was Pietro Maximoff. Her first instinct was to turn around and walk away till a thought crossed her mind.
"He was the only one who never judged me for my mistakes... or for anything really..." She thought before she took a deep breath and walked over silently, sitting down beside the speed demon. He turned his head slowly to look at her, then after a beat he finally spoke.
"Hey..." He half whispered, brows rising as he noticed small tears forming in the corners of her eyes.
"H-Hey..." She spoke at an almost inaudible volume as the tears silently began to fall.
"Everything ok?" He asked her cautiously recieve just the shake of her head in response. Nodding back he motioned for her to move closer. Next thing either of them knew she was nearly in his lap, wrapped comfortably in his warm embrace.
"I've missed you..." She whispered into the crook of his neck feeling him barely nod.
"You too B!" He replied gently as he felt something wet on the skin of his shoulder.

While Blake was off having her moment with Pietro, Max was walking toward Shylow and Jamie's dorm with several of his Ex-Boyfriends books. Shylow had asked Max to return them and despite protests from his best friend Trinity, Max felt it would only be right if he just go politely return them.
When he approached the door he noticed it was open but still knocked lightly to give the other warning of his arrival.
"Come in!" He heard Shylow's voice call to him.
"Um... Hey..." The blonde male greeted him slowly as he entered the bedroom.
"Hey Max" The older responded, "How have you been?" He asked with a little awkwardness in his voice.
"I'm ok, how about you?" Max responded feeling a tickle on the back of his neck for reasons he wasn't aware of.
"You know... dealing with a lot of things... School... keeping an eye on Jay..." The older told him recieving a nod, "I hear you've been seeing someone new, mind if I ask you a question?" He asked carefully hearing Max sigh heavily.
"If you have to Shy!" Max told him rolling his eyes.
"Will it bother you if I start seeing someone too?" Shylow asked trying to not be offended by the blondes attitude. Max looked up with a surprised expression.
"Even if it would why does that matter?" Max retorted still appearing somewhat confused.
"Cause I care about your opinion... believe or not I'm not the worlds biggest asshole or anything!" He spoke back venomously before they both heard Max's phone go off. The blonde pulled out his phone and sighed again.
"It's Troy... see you later Shy!" He told the raven haired boy as he set the books on the desk and walked away.

Kurt and Blake were in the latter's room packing up her clothes that she would be taking with her on their spring break trip.
"So I saw Pietro yesterday..." She spoke after several minutes of silence seeing the elfin mutant nod.
"How did that go?" He asked her as he handed her a shirt that she had folded a few minutes before.
"Really well actually... He asked me to have dinner with him when we get back..." She told him in reply, "He's been having a rough time lately and I know he knows that I of all people know what thats like... Can I ask you a quick and somewhat stupid question?" She asked him getting just a nod.
"Why are you still talking to me after I told everyone that I'm a murderer..." She wondered aloud scowling when he laughed a little under his breath.
"Because you're my best friend" He responded smiling softly, "Besides we all have things we aren't proud of..." He added just above a whisper.
"So the fact that I'm your future sister in-law has nothing to do with it?" She asked him with a laugh. He rolled his eyes and shoved her shoulder as she continued to chuckle at him.

"You sure you don't want to go with us?" Bobby asked his best friend as they were packing Bobby's things, "Wait I saw a packed bag in your room that I know wasn't Shy's!" He added turning to see the other nod.
"I'm going to spend the week on Muir Island with and Sunwave..." He told the other boy who sighed.
"Jay I'm sorry!" He half whispered as he sat down on his bed. Jamie raised an eyebrow at the others sudden proclaimation.
"For what happened to me?" He questioned the other, "Bobby you had know idea what was happening with me!" He added. Bobby just shook his head before he started to speak only being stopped by Jamie interrupting him.
"I was shutting other people out and trying to detach myself... I guess I thought it wouldn't hurt you guys as much if I told you that I was ok... But I know that things are going to be better someday and that I don't have the right to just give up without a fight!" He told other with a very serious and sincere look.
"I've been meaning to ask you, is there anything I can do for you?" Bobby asked him, "Like to help you recover?" He continued seeing the other stand up to leave.
"I heard about what happened in the Prof's office... you had no right to attack someone or blame them for what happened to me... especially not the person who saved my life!" He responded turning enough that his working eye was glancing at his friend, "I need to appologize!" He said sternly.
"I will eventually I-" Bobby started being abruptly halted again.
"No, don't wait... Do it now while you know you have the chance!" Jamie told him.
"I already try to live like it's my last day Jamie I just-" He tried again.
"Forget your own last day... Do it like it's hers!" Jamie replied before he left the other behind.
