I was beginning to get a headache from all this teleporting.

BAMF!

I could see the school! I could see it! It was right there!

BAMF!

We were here, right outside the school doors.

I let go of Kurt's hand so I could hug him. Storm joined us, and we had a nice group hug.

Douglas stayed back, unsure.

I let go of Kurt and Storm, and grabbed Douglas, and pulled him close. I hugged him tightly.

Douglas's POV:

I could smell the scent of her hair, I could feel how soft it was, I was holding her in my arms, yet I couldn't tell her how I felt.

Someday, somehow, I would.

Sam let go of me, and stepped back. She was grinning, and at first I thought, Oh, no! She's a mind-reader, she read my mind!

Then she said, "It's so great to be back! C'mon, let's go inside!" She darted to the doors, and opened them. The sight inside astonished me.

A guy made of ice and a girl with a blonde streak in her hair were kissing on the stairs.

"Sam, uh, who're they?" I asked quietly.

Sam glanced at them, then smiled. "Uh, Rogue? Icy?"

They didn't notice.

"Oy, Lovebirds!" Sam yelled, "Break it up!"

The girl blushed, and stood up, pulling ice-guy with her. Ice-guy glared at Sam. Then his face broke into a smile, and he ran forward, swooping her into a hug.

"Sam!" He laughed, twirling her around.

"Uh, Bobby, you might want to not freeze her to death." The girl commented.

Bobby stopped, put Sam down, and closed his eyes. The ice faded, and he turned human. Then he hugged her again.

Yeah, I was jealous. Very, very jealous. I mean, what was it with her and hugging random guys? I mean, Nightcrawler I didn't mind once I knew he was married, but…

"Douglas, did you hear me?" Sam asked.

"What?" I asked, startled. I'd zoned out.

Sam laughed, and pulled me over to Bobby and the girl. "Douglas, this is Bobby Drake, also known as Iceman."

I nodded.

"And this is Marie, also known as Rogue." Sam continued, looking at the girl.

Rouge smiled, and hugged Sam. "You came back!"

"Of course I did! I was only gone for a few years." Sam said. "Didn't the Professor tell you I was coming back?"

"Yes, but it's been three years!" Rogue said.

Sam froze, and her eyes glazed over. A few seconds later, she smiled, and looked at one of the doors.

"Sam, what did you-?" I started to ask.

The door opened, and an old bald man in a wheelchair rolled out.

Who's the cripple? I thought curiously.

'The cripple' is Professor Charles Xavier. You can call me Dr. X, but not 'the cripple', please. A male voice said.
