Dedication: I would like to dedicate this chapter to Yugoma and Lucky's Girl
Read on...
Previously...
I don't know why I believed him, he said he was going to dump her last time, and he never... It looks like he is choosing her over me... again. Looks like I'm second fiddle to Marie... again, I don't know why I'm so surprised, he may act like the brave potential leader of the future X-Men... but really he is just a spineless coward.
"John," I heard my name being called in that southern drawl. I scowled at the group of friends in front of me turning as a single tear escaped down my cheek, I walked as fast as I could without running to my room before someone could see the evidence that St John Allerdyce was actually crying.
Chapter 3
Knowing that my room would be the first place Drake would go to look for me, I had changed direction and ran towards the tree by the lake; it was after all too nice a day to be stuck up in my room where even his infernal body temperature would affect the temperature of my room. I looked out across the lake as the sun shined down on the surface the small waves causing the sun light to reflect of the in mini rainbows. It was an amazingly beautiful day; the colours around me seemed to be much brighter today... It would have been a perfect day if I hadn't realised I was being used again.
"Hey," a female voice said, I turned to look and saw a short pale brunette walk towards me, "are you ok?"
"I'm fine," I replied as I scowled at the lake, hoping she would take it as a hint to disappear.
"You can't lie to a psychic-"
"Get out of my head!" I shouted as I tried to block of all thoughts as I busied my mind with imagining a brick wall.
"I'm an empath; I have no telepathic ability... just telekinetic."
"Sorry," I replied "I... I don't like people reading my thoughts... sometimes my thoughts are confusing, they even confuse me."
"That's understandable," she said as she sat next to me, "as mutants we do tend to have a harder life then others... and so confusing thoughts," she said smiling. "I'm Eve by the way, Eve Anderson," her eyes the brightest of green seemed to shimmer as she gazed at me.
"John," I muttered as I turned back to stare at the lake in front of me.
"Do you want to talk about it?" I shook my head, instantly freezing as I heard Drake call my name in the background. "Don't move or say a word," Eve whispered, I nodded and froze preventing any muscle from moving. I saw Drake appear from the corner of my eye before he disappeared again, his footsteps getting further and further away.
"How did you do that?" I asked as I looked at her, semi aware that my mouth was hanging wide open with shock... she hadn't mentioned invisibility.
"You welcome," she replied bitterly, a scowl on her face that could even rival mine
"Thanks....but how did you do that," I asked, I watched as she the cogs in her mind seemed to work away, a smile appearing on her face before she answered my question.
"I have minor invisibility abilities, the Professor said I hadn't even reached my potential yet, so I don't really count them at the moment... but I currently use my empathy to affect the person's emotions so make them less aware... almost ignorant."
"Doesn't that go against the Professors teachings?"
"Technically, but I only do it temporarily... when the person I'm hiding from looks somewhere else, I stop the manipulating. I'll show you what my invisibility looks like without the manipulation and then with it." I watched as Eve's body shimmered, becoming duller and less solid. "See, it sucks... and now with the manipulating." I watched as her powers took over me, I no longer had an interest in watching her really, but I did manage to see her disappear from view completely. "And back again," she said grinning.
"Awesome," I said as I felt the grin mirror on my face.
"So why you trying to hide from Bobby,"
"What makes you think that?" I asked, attempting to keep eye contact to a minimum.
"Empath remember? Also, when attempting to lie, at least try and keep eye contact... so are you gonna spill?"
"If I do... you can't repeat this," Eve nodded in agreement, and so I explained the story from the beginning the day we both realised we felt the same way."
*Flashback*
"I don't get you John!" Bobby shouted at John, their confrontation in the Garage going unnoticed due to the large Basketball match occurring in the grounds. "I try my best to be a friend, but when I get you to hang out with us... you're like you are now. And if I don't try and include you, you go off and sulk... I can't win!"
"Friends!?" I'd shouted as I stopped pacing, "I can't remember when I last considered you my friend," the look of shock on Bobby's face had made me reconsider this, but it's been building up for a while and I just needed to unload. "Whenever we plan to do something as friends you invite her along with you!" I said before resuming my pacing
"Rogue? She's my bloody girlfriend John, what do you expect me to do? Just forget about her?"
"Oh, but its fine to start making out with her and forget about me when we're supposed to be doing something?"
"Is this what it's all about? You're jealous because you're not getting enough attention? Well I'm sorry I can just give you my undivided attention."
"I wouldn't give a toss if it were with any other girl! But you're making out with a girl who could kill you any second."
"It's not her fault!"
"I didn't say it was... But what's the point in having a girlfriend when you can't go all the way? You can't even have a family with her because she would suck the life from the baby!"
"You know what John? You're jealous that I can have a lasting relationship, when you can make yours only last three days tops."
"Damn right I'm jealous!" I shouted as I stopped pacing again.
"Ha, I knew it!" I walked over to Bobby and invaded his personal space, causing him to back up against the wall.
"Not of you, of her... I'm jealous of here."
"John... I don't understand," he whispered as he came to a stop against the wall, his warm breath on my voice.
I leant down as I pushed my lips to his, kissing him softly. I paused waiting for the rejection, but it never came, instead he pushed his lips to mine, the kiss started off slowly, but got faster and more passionate as time went on, our tongues entering each other's mouths.
*End of Flashback*
That of course had been when I was the taller one, just after the incident in New York... Now Bobby towered above me being a foot taller, now that I minded, it made it easier to get closer to him.
"Whoa dude!" Eve shouted out loud before whispering "Bobby Drake is gay?"
"I assume so; he's never done more than kiss Marie... that is until she got cured."
"Don't worry about a thing John, as far as I've seen they haven't got closer... in fact I would say they've drifted... I could be wrong," Eve said drifting off.
"I doubt that," I replied.
"Me too, but I didn't want to seem too arrogant," she replied nonchalantly causing me to grin. "So what you going to do about the whole Bobby thing?" I frowned and felt the familiar sadness fill me as I felt the prickling sensation in my eyes as tears prepared to launch themselves down my eyes.
"I don't know,"
"I say jealousy... get him to see you aren't going to wait around."
"Ok then, what's the plan then?"
* * * * * * * *
"I'm not so sure about this," I whispered as we sat opposite each other on the island in the kitchen.
"You're not backing out! I am helping you out here,"
"You're also getting something else out of this," I pointed out; she had admitted earlier that she had had a crush on me before I left the mansion... I admitted I'd never really noticed her before 'oops'
"That's beside the point," she said as she opened her eyes to look at me, "he's coming this way,"
"You sure?" I asked, nervous about the plan that was about to unfold. She nodded and begun to whisper a countdown.
"10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... kiss me," I nodded and leant across the narrow island and begun kissing her, carrying on the countdown in my head. I resisted the temptation to look at who I assumed to be Bobby had just entered the kitchen who had just gasped in shock, we continued the kiss for a couple seconds longer, even though it was grossing me out a little I didn't hold back on the kissing front to make this look more realistic, we finally stopped kissing and rested our foreheads against each other as we both breathed heavily and looked in each other's eyes.
"Wow... high levels of jealousy," she whispered loud enough for me to hear, I laughed as I saw the stunned and angry look on Bobby's face from the corner of my eye.
"Just so you know..." I whispered pausing slightly in the middle, "that was the worst kiss ever." I lurched forward slightly as Eve leant back and giggled slapping me lightly on the arm.
"That's dirty John," she said in between giggles loud enough for Bobby to hear, before suddenly coming to a stop. "Luck you that I like kinky sex," she said again before giggling again, I felt my jaw drop and look towards the door as it slammed shut.
"We didn't discuss that bit," I said chuckling as I turned to face her.
"I know," she said smiling, "but you would have stopped me, and it made him mad... which is good."
"If you say so," I shrugged my shoulders, "just remember I'm gay... so no strings attached."
"Oh no Johnny Boy, I've got my eyes on someone else... and I'm using you as much as you're using me." I grinned as I waited for her to explain the rest of her plan.
* * * * * * * *
A month had passed since the plan had begun; the rumour mill had gone into overtime when people had found out me the 'bad boy' and Eve the 'good girl' were supposedly dating. Next we both had to leak rumours about how amazing the other was in bed... Currently most everybody believed that I had an enormous penis (not that I had a small one) and was able to give Eve multiple orgasms, and Eve she was an incredibly flexible nympho and was amazing at giving head.
We soon became the most talked about couple within the school, even bigger than the ice cube and his previously untouchable girlfriend; we were the Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt of the mansion. Everyone thought we were the perfect couple, and according to her the guys were wishing they were me, while the girls were wishing they were her. She kept me informed of Bobby's jealousy levels rating them from zero to one hundred... we had no reached two thousand, and was pleased to announce that the guy she was after was no interested in her. At first I couldn't see what attracted Eve to the incredibly shy Warren... which I don't really get seeing as he walks around half naked. But after a while I saw what attracted her to him, and I knew I wouldn't mind licking sticky tasty substances off of his pecs and abs.
We were currently in the rec. room watching some crap that was on the TV, my arm currently around Eve as she laid her head in the crook of my neck. I don't know how I never noticed her before, she was an amazing person to talk to, a nice personality (unlike some of the pretty girls around here), and an all round down to earth person, and when asked why I never noticed her before her answer was 'you're extremely unaware of people around you,' which led me to believe she had been using her powers on me back then. I could currently see Bobby and Marie in the corner of the room having a rather heated discussion.
"I'm sensing a mix of annoyance and nervousness and extreme confusion." I was about to reply but stopped when I heard Marie shout
"YOU WHAT!?" I watched as Bobby looked around the room, looking eyes with me before turning back to Marie to whisper his reply. "You love someone else?" she asked, although it wasn't as loud as last time, it seemed to reverberate around the room.
"I'm sorry," Bobby's muttered apology also carried around the room, leading to Marie to run off crying. Bobby looked to me with a half expectant look on his face before walking out of the room.
"Said it wouldn't be long," Eve whispered as conversations begun in the room again. Eve had actually said that morning that she didn't think Bobby would put it off any longer.
"So now we come to the end of the plan," I whispered. "I'll take Warren, you take Bobby?" I asked to which she nodded, we both got up off the sofa; I went to head for the back lawn but was stopped as Eve grabbed my hand.
"Friends forever?"
"No way," I replied and watched as her face fell, "I'm adopting you as my sister," her face brightened up again.
"Woo big brother-ness,"
"Now I just need to go tell Warren that you like him, like we planned.... and then I warn him to stay away from my little sister." I added with a grin, laughing as I received a playful slap around the arm.
* * * * * * * *
"So let me get this straight," Warren said, "You two started dating to get the people you liked to notice you."
"Well if you want to simplify it and put it that way," I said, "but it leaves out all the fun bits."
"So all those rumours... they're not true?"
"Nope... well I do have a huge penis, and I imagine Eve is good in bed... empath capable of emotion manipulating, she could take you to new heights." I watched as Warren smiled.
"So who were you trying to get to notice you?" Warren asked.
"Well you see Warren... me and you don't bat for the same team."
"You're gay?"
"Urm, yeah... you want to see my dick?"
"I think I'll pass," he said with a flap of his wings causing his muscles to flex.
"You sure know how to torture someone." I said with a smile as I looked him in the face and saw he was blushing. "Now let's get you to Eve."
* * * * * * * *
A day had passed and many people found out what had happened between me and Eve.... although no one had found out who I was after, or the fact I was gay, and so people quite willingly believed that Warren and Eve were now going out, and that me and Eve had used each other to get what we wanted.... Although we didn't specify which of the rumours were true and which weren't, except to Warren to give him peace of mind.
Me, Eve and Warren were currently in the rec. room, the three of us were on two double sofas, me and Eve opposite Warren with a coffee table in the middle.
"How come you get to sit next to my girlfriend?" Warren asked.
"Because she's my sister," I replied with a smirk as Bobby sat next to Warren "See, Eve can smirk like me." I looked at Bobby and saw he was trying to catch my eye but I looked away. "So first date... where are you taking her?" I asked Warren.
"I dunno; I can't really take her anywhere public as I still haven't mastered the wing retraction thing yet."
"Fair enough," I said with smile. The conversation and banter between us carried on for ten more minutes, in which Bobby never stopped attempting to catch my eyesight. We were verging on the conversation of how Warren's wings made sex difficult for him when Marie stomped over to us and started shouting.
"You whore!" she screamed as she looked at Eve.
"Excuse me?" Eve said as her eyes glinted dangerously.
"How could you do this" she asked as she turned to Warren, who looked as confused as the rest of us. "I mean help her hide her relationship with Bobby; I know they're going out!"
"Marie, we're not-" Bobby began but was interrupted by Marie.
"Don't lie to me Bobby, I saw her go into your room yesterday, and you were in there for a while," she shouted hysterically. In my opinion Bobby was rather lucky to be alive... Logan was rather protective of Marie.
"Marie, you want me to prove to you that Bobby and Eve aren't going out?" Marie nodded because she'd lost her voice. "Ok, Warren and I will swap seats," I swapped with Warren who wrapped his arm around Eve as he sat next to her, and I sat next to Bobby.
"Ok, this proves nothing."
"Are you going to do it Bobby?" Bobby looked at me and then at Marie before turning back to face me. I watched as his Adams apple bobbed as he swallowed and leant towards me, I mirrored his movements and placed my lips on his welcoming his tongue into my mouth and ignoring the scream from Marie as she stormed out of the room.
Due to the lack of interest in this story, I thought I should end it sooner rather then later :( But on a good note, I really did enjoy writing this chapter, it may seem a bit rushed in some places, but it's 2:30am and I really want to go to bed lol.
Anyway, I hope you all approve of this ending, I thought it was quite funny :S Might do a sequel... never know, so if you want to be laerted to a sequel add this story to your alerts and I will post a AN chapter, letting you all know.
For now this will be my only X-Men Fan Fic, as I am currently working on a Harry Potter one... If you enjoy Rose Wealey and Scorpius Malfoy then you know where to go :)
