After a few minutes of getting a bunch of coordinates and Charles gripping onto the narrow rail. I had helped him, I connected our minds so the amount of stress wasn't to much for him to handle. The lights around the white globe had started to flicker, I had accidentally went to far and I was loosing consciousness. Erik had came behind me to keep me sturdy, I was thankful for him.

"Cut it off."

The little noise was getting louder as their voices was becoming smaller.

"Cut the machine off."

"No I'm fine, keep going."

I peeled my eyes open and looked at Charles, whatever bond we have had just became stronger because I would never do this again. After a few moments the machine had cut off, I laughed as everyone was astonished.

"Charles you are a very lucky man, I don't do that for everyone."

I was now fully leaning on Erik for support, I was watching Charles. I winked at him as Erik helped me out of the globe and across the lawn. We had gotten to the room I was staying in. I opened the door as Erik moved me to the chair.

"Thank you."

"How many times am I going to have to carry you."

"You act like I'm heavy, you could probably pick me up with one hand."

He held out his hand and I was lifted a couple inches off the ground.

"I was speaking metaphorically, ass."

I laughed as he sat down in front of me, I laid back as he grabbed my legs. He had moved them over his lap and I smiled at him.

"You and Charles don't stay gone to long."

"You afraid you'll miss us."

I know he meant it as a joke but it was true, he is the only person I have let myself get attached to and it pains me to be away from him.

"Would it be a problem if I said yes."

He looked at me seriously, he moves himself closer to me.

"I'm serious, You are the only person I have let get close to me in a really long time."

He grabbed my hand, I didn't know what to really think about it. I've done it to him a few times, neither of us was bothered by it. He didn't say anything as he watched me, I slightly frown.

"Erik, what's wrong."

He didn't say anything, he lean forward and kissed me. It wasn't a bad kiss, why would it be. I knew the anger we shared and the knowledge that we wanted was put into that kiss. We both had wanted it, he knew if I didn't feel comfortable I wouldn't have let it go on. He had pulled me into his lap and I wrapped my arms around his neck, he had gripped onto my hips. I slowly pulled away so we could catch some air, I couldn't help but smile.

"Erik..."

The door had opened and I hear a small gasp. Raven was standing in the doorway, I couldn't help but laugh at her expression.

"Raven whats wrong."

She didn't say anything, I guess she's still trying to get over the initial shock of me sitting on Eriks lap.

"Umm.. Charles wanted to speak to Erik about leaving."

She quickly leaves and shuts the door, I go to move out of his lap but he keeps me still.

"No no, don't you go thinking just because I let you kiss me means that I want you."

I use his watch to pry his hand off my as I grab the other one. I stand up and pull him with me, neither one of us breaking contact. He leans down and lightly kisses me again, after a couple seconds he pulls back.

"What about now."

"Try again later."

I laugh as I step away from him, he walks over to the door and leaves. After a few minutes Raven comes rushing into the room, she sits on the bed as she looks at me.

"So What was that about."

"What..."

"Don't actually like I didn't just walk in here and see you sitting on Mr. Grump's lap."

I laugh as I sit down beside her, she seems oddly focused.

"Is this payback for Erik walking in on you last night."

Her eyes widen and I can't help but smile, a lightly blush forms over her cheeks.

"How'd you know."

"Erik and I might have just met but we have a few things in common. During that time we formed a tight bond, he told me after he came and found me."

She throws herself back onto the bed, she keeps her eyes on the ceiling.

"What should I do."

"I think that he likes you, and if you truly like him then give it a shot. I might not know the first thing about being in a relationship but I know that you two are the sweetest people I have ever met. You two say that you need to hide your mutations but you can confide in each other. You two have something in common, use it to make a stronger bond. Who knows maybe you can be something more."

She quickly sits up and hugs me, my arms are caught at my side but I smile anyway. She jumps up and walks to the door, not saying anything. I shake my head as I kick off my shoes and sit by the window.

It's been a few days since they've left, Raven and Hank have gotten closer. A few mutants have came like a woman named Angel and a man named Darwin, Sean and Alex were next. I didn't talk to them much, Darwin and I seemed to talk the most. They were nice and cool to hangout with by I'm not going to waste my time with getting close to them. Erik and Charles should be arriving back home soon. Right now I'm just with the group, waiting for them to get back.
