Chapter 3
bathroom blues

Olivia layed in charles bed he had forced her into pretty much, she offered to sleep on the couch but he insisted

Olivia tossed and turned she stared at the wall then sat up

again the hole in her chest, was getting bigger and she just wanted her mommy

Olivia stood up and opened the door quietly she tip toed to the bathroom(Which raven had shown her before she had gone to bed) and stared into the mirror "Wow" She scanned her face touching her cheeks and nose "havn't seen you in awhile" She said to the mirror

Olivia sat on leaning against the bathtub on the floor and began to sob again she kept telling herself to get a grip but she couldn't, she felt helpless in this giant world

"Olivia?" the door opened and charles peeked in olivia looked up "Charles...im so sorry...uuhh..i didn't mean to wake you" Olivia quickly wiped her eye's "You alright?" he asked walking over to her sliding next to her.

"yeah, im okay" She nodded "I can read your mind, olivia, remember" He said throwing his arm around her "It's alright, you can cry" he nodded Olivia stared at charles, his eye's were kind and soft and she broke into tears leaning into him.

charles held Olivia the rest of the night, he held her as she cried and eventually they both fell asleep against the bathtub

in the morning Erik walked into the bathroom yawning he stopped in his tracks and stared at the two, he chuckled a bit and kneeled shaknig charles awake, charles jumped awake

"Morning, prince charming" he grinned "shut up" charles grinned teasily pushing Erik "she alright?" Erik asked beginning to brush his teeth looking into the mirror

"Yeah, she should be, now" Charles replied making alot of effort of pick her up carrying Olivia to his bedroom

he layed her on his bed and pulled the cover up, charles stared at olivia for a moment

then put his finger to his temple and leaned in a bit then froze, starring at Olivia he then let his hand fall

...

Olivia awoke alone in charles bed, she quickly sat up and looked around

she slowley walked downstairs her blonde hair a mess

everyone sat around a table, blondie stared in disbelife

"Ah, olivia come have a seat" Charles smiled warmly "really?" She asked they all looked up at her

"really" Charles chuckled Olivia sat down

Charles stood up and headed into the kitchen "So, olivia, when did you first figure out you were a mutant?" Erik asked setting his newspaper down

Olivia looked down "I was ten and i got angry at my parents...i don't even know why and well, i almost blew up my dad" She said

Raven looked at Olivia with pity "I was so scared, even more scared then he was" She nodded

Erik was about to say something when Charles walked in with a plate of eggs and a glass of milk in his hands

"here you are, luv" he smiled placing the plate down "really?" Olivia asked looking up at him

Charles smiled

really

Olivia smiled as charles voice echoed in her head

your safe now, olivia, your home.

Olivia looked back to the plate of food, then up to her new friends she gave them a kind smile "Thank you, thank you so much" she said

then returned to her plate and began to eat
