"It was weird. Like being in a slow motion movie. Talk about lakes of fire and brimstone. It was definitely not a vacation spot. But I can't wait to go again." Kurt says excitedly as he is walling with Alexis, Scott and Jean through the school hallway.
"Well I am glad you enjoyed it Kurt. The important thing is that it worked." Alexis says.
"I hope this testing works out for you. The professor seemed really excited about it." Scott says.
"Yeah. That Forge is a genius." Kurt says happily.
"Sorry guys but I've gotta run. Scott can we talk at lunch?" Jean asks as she starts to walk off.
"Yeah. Sure. Outside in the quad?" Scott asks.
"Okay good. I'll see you then." Jean says as she waves and walks off.
"Yeah. I've gotta go as well. Gonna be late for class if I don't." Alexis says as she rushes off.
*Timeskip*
Later as Alexis is walking she soon sees Pietro and his group before hiding by a tree.
"Why are you watching my group?" A voice asks startling Alexis until she sees Lance.
"Oh Lance. It's just you. You startled me." Alexis says in relief.
"Well hello to you too." Lance says.
"Sorry." Alexis says.
"Why are you smiling at speedy for? Wait. Don't tell me you like him." Lance says as he sees Alexis is staring at Pietro.
"So what if I do?" Alexis asks annoyedly.
"Oh come on Alexis. You've been my friend for as long as I can remember. Even with you being one of those X-Freaks. No offense. But anyway you could seriously get any guy at this school with your looks and kindness and yet you wanna take Speedy?" Lance asks.
"Look I've liked him for a little while now. He has been kind to me a couple times. Whenever we were able to talk it was always interrupted. But it was enough for me to well... like him. I wanna tell him but..." Alexis says.
"You're seriously worried he wouldn't like you? It's not like he has many options but fine. None of us do really. If you wanna like him be my guest. I don't see the appeal but I'll support it long as he doesn't hurt you." Lance says.
"Lance could I ask a favor?" Alexis asks as she looks at Lance.
