Victoria couldn't help but chuckle, "Oh Logan, there will be plenty of time for that... I imagine we won't be able to hide from Savage our whole lives... And when that day comes... we'll kill the shit out of him."

He stopped and turned to her, a suddenly serious look in his eyes, "Savage does not just die. I thought I stabbed him through the heart once... and he's still standing. He's as tough as me, and ten times as ruthless... and I won't let him near you lot" he promised before slumping into the passenger seat of Scott's car.

"I know... I was his wife in a previous life." She said softly not looking at him before belting herself and starting the car.

Logan was pretty much passed out. He'd probably snap out of it in half an hour or so.

When he did come around, he was still in the passenger seat but it was parked in the garage and a blanket had been placed over him.

A note lay on him saying, "Night Uncle Logan. -Victoria."

Logan looked at the note and smiled a little bit. He climbed out of the car and headed inside.

"I'm heading out." She called, putting on her new jacket and backpack. Most of the teens were still getting ready for school or had just woken up. But Celeste had been heading to school early every couple of days.

"Getting an early start?" Xavier asked as he rolled by.

She smiled warmly, "Yup, there's a few things I'd like to get done before first period."
Like helping my boyfriend with his homework <3

"Well I hope those things are treating you well" Xavier replied casually, "I wouldn't want anyone else to get involved unless they had to."

Celeste paused and turned around and gave him a kiss on the forehead, "Thanks Charles-sama, have a good day!"

"You to!" he called after her, giving the sidewalk a quick mental scan he smiled, Pietro was waiting for her just out of view.

Celeste was running when she came around the corner.

And Pietro was there to scoop her up into a hug, "Goooood morning" he greeted, planting a kiss on her.

Celeste giggled and returned the kiss, "Good Morning Speedy-san <3" She purred. "Oh..." She pulled her favorite turquoise scarf out of her bag and wrapped it around his neck, "Here, since I took your favorite coat, you can have my favorite knit scarf... I even added a little skeleton on the bottom to make it look manly, <3"

He grinned, "Ah, seems like a fair trade to me" he agreed, throwing the end over his shoulder with a flare. "Shall we?" he offered his arm to her.

She wrapped her arm around his, "Yes, lets."

And they headed off to school.

"No, you have to add those two numbers together." Celeste explained, reaching under Pietro's arm and penciling in the proper way to solve the problem. See? Easy peezee lemon squeezey."

"I'd rather squeezey something other than lemons" commented the speedster as he watched her.

She gasped, "WhaT? Is there a zit?" She asked tapping her face in a panic.

"No" he rolled his eyes, "you're perfect. I was talking about these" he gave her breast a 'squeezey'.

Celeste slapped his hand away and quickly looked around, her face turning a bright shade of a blooming rose. "Pietro!" She hissed, "We're at school." No one was around yet, it was still pretty early, Mr. Lee the janitor was always here but he was usually listening to the radio at this time in the morning.

"You...You can't just go around, squeezing...>////<"

Pietro laughed, "chill. Nobody's gonna see. And I thought you liked it when I showed an interest" he grinned at her, inching his face closer.

It was true, Celeste did enjoy the attention Pietro gave her. Just... not when it got her all warm and bothered in a public place.

"I'm I really such an open book?" She asked leaning in.
