Scott and Emma entered wordlesely, both retiering to their desks to file their reports of teh incident earlier.
"Come in." Emma said. Outside she sensed Laura and two of the new students, Morgan and Crystal.
Laura opened the door and closed it behind the girls when they entered.
"Have a seat ladies." Emma told them
Crys sat down in front of Emma, seeing as there were only two seats, and Emma was the HeadMistress. It was she that Charles Xavier turned to to take over the school on the telepathic part. She sat down and looked at her
Morgan sat in the chair next to Crys.
This is a beginning to a great school year..., she thought sarcastically.
Scott looked up from his paperwork and sighed quietly. Already this school year was off to a good start. It was only hours ago that everyone arrived and already they were fighting
Morgan remained quite. She had gotten into trouble before in other schools, she she basically knew the whole ruetine.
"Scarcasm will get you no where." Emma said as she continued to type her report. "I've already scanned your minds so I know about your little tiff. As you may have noticed the student body this year is rather small. Much smaller than previous years. We have maintained a roomate system for the last six years. This year we where going to let all of you have your own rooms. This is still the case for the remainder of teh student body. You two however will remove your belongings from their current rooms and place them in a currently unoccupied room. Together. You will remain roomates until the end of the term. You will be civil to one another, comprimise on your living arangements and I am to hear nothing more of your fighting. If I do you will both be expelled." She looked up from her monitor "There is no use trying to hide it from me. I'll know and you'll both be gone. Am I understood?"
What? No co-ed dorms? Lame... Morgan thought, forgetting that she can mind read. "Fine." she said with a slight, angered tone.
Crys had seen what Emma Frost could do. She was dubbed the White Queen and she deserved the title. She nodded, "Understood."
"Absolutly no co-ed dorms." Emma said "You may leave now."
Crys stood up and bowed her head to Emma and then to Scott. She didn't know how to respond, whether or not to say thank you for the 'just' punishment or what?
"You don't have to say anything." Emma told Crys.
"Heh..yea, of course not."
Morgan said, backing out of the room.
God-if their is one, SMITE ME!! This suck-oh wait, she can read thoughts. Ok, stop thinking...stop thinking...Would trying to not think count as thinking?
"Yes it would." Emma said absent mindedly as she continued typing.
Morgan was a bit wide eyed. She ran straight out of the room so she couldn't read her thoughts.
Crys turned and walked out of the office, back into
the main entrance hall
Casey sauntered in, casting a quick look around for Ghost. "Yo, lady. Seen Ghost around?" she asked Emma.
"Welcome back Casey." Scott replied. "If Ih ad to guess, you could probably find him with his wife."
"I was just with Daine, she didn't know either, but thanks,"
Casey said, ducking out of the office.
"I wonder what she's looking for Ghost for." Scott mumbled, looking over at Emma
"Probably so he can make teh walls bleed for her again." Emma said still typing.
"A strange request, but I suppose it holds some meaning." Scott said with a nod.
Scott sat behind his desk on this particular saturday afternoon. He was typing on his computer and rifeling threw papers while Emma did the same on her side of the room. nether spoke but seemed very busy.
There was a knock at the door followed by the presence fo
Delaney and Kurt not waiting to be shown in.
"If it isn't our rescuers themselves." Emma said dryly. She had apparently heard or telepathically skimmed a few minds concerning the apparent atrocaties that would have happened about an hour for now.
"About that."
Del said sporting a 7 month pregnant belly. She looked to Kurt to finish her statement which they had both prepared in their room.
"We want some time off so that we can have the baby at our home."
Kurt told Scott, not really daring to say it to Emma. To be honest, even though he was appointed second in command, telepathically speaking, she still scared the shit out of him.
"Your vacation time dosen't become active till May." Emma said not looking up from her files.
"Maternity leave then."
Del said
"Fine for you but what about Kurt." Emma said still concerned with her file.
"Would you at least look at me when you refuse me?"
del asked sternly
Emma looked upo with a steely glare.
"I don't give a rat's ass about vacation time. It's not like we're being paid to be X-men, Emma."
Kurt told her, growing slightly annoyed with her misplaced focused. He grabbed a hold of her file and Scott's with his shadow, pulling them from their hands. "Enough paperwork. This is more important."
"Apparently...
" Scott replied, looking up at him. "You shouldn't be so bold to a superior, Kurt."
"Superiority is in the eye of the beholder, Scott." Kurt told him, glancing over to Emma as he said that, it went double for her as it did for Scott
"Considering the aparent events surounding to day or what would have happened today and your being lost in time wouldn;t it be safer to stay here during the end of your pregnancy?" Emma asked "Considering something might happen."
"Lyra assures me that it's a very normal pregnancy." Del said "And I want to enjoy the end of it with my husband who missed most of it."
"Besides, tradition states that she should have our child at home. Right Del?" Kurt said, looking at Scott to be the voice of reason.
"Reason dictates that safety-" Emma began
Scott cut her off. "They're right." Scott said
"Excuse me?" Emma said seemingly abashed that Scott didn't agree with her
Del's mouth hung open in shock.
"They've been here a long time. " Scott began "They deserve to take the time off to have their baby. Besides if anything does happen Kurt can shadow-port both of them back here. It would take you what? Four, Five ports for that kind of distance?" He sked looking at Kurt.
"I can do it in one, but I'd be out of commission for a while afterwards. So I wouldn't suggest that. But yeah, around four or five for safety." Kurt. replied, glad to hear that Scott was with them on this. He never did like the guy, but he had his moments
"Then it' setteled." Scott said "Logan and laura can take your classes. I think between the two of them they can handel it. I might give Rogue a call to take care of the music department. All in all I think we're ok."
Emma sat transfixed at her desk. Shocked that Scott was undermining her athority.
"Did... did that just happen?" Del asked tuggin on Kurt's sleeve "Kurt... he's scareing me..."
"Emma? You'll cover my half of the telepathy courses? There really isn't much going on in the music portion of my classes, but thank you for giving Rogue a call about it." Kurt said to both of them. He was as surprised as everyone was. He smiled as he watched Emma with her mouth hanging open. That was a sight to remember for the rest of his life. He turned to look at Del. "I guess that means we have a go then." He took her hand and squeezed it gently.
Scott chuckeled as they left. ":NOt a problem."
"Thanks."DEl sid
"Scott I don;t know if I told you this but you really are a beautiful man." Kurt winked as the door closed behind themm.
Stumble!
