State of the Union

A flashback to the faculty's days at Xavier's in Salem Center, NY. However, something is different...

"Wait, what?" she asks, tilting her head in confusion. "Did you think I tried to take it back?"

"No," she said, not looking up. "But I think you thought about it..."

"I... I did, but only because I thought it had creeped you out! In that dream it was real and then it wasn't or at least not like that but I wanted it to be and I still do..." she rambles.

"And that's fine! I was just afraid that you'd get mad at me for getting a little weirded by it and not want anything to do with me, because I mean it surprised me but it wasn't like a bad surprise, just one I needed to figure out and figure out if you were serious and I just didn't know if you'd get mad that I needed time to process it..." Becca rambled right along with her.

"So... uhm... Did you figure it out?" she asks carefully.

"I figured out that I really don't care if people would say it's too soon," Becca said, making herself sound a lot braver than she felt. "I'd... just have to trust you that you knew how you felt."

"That's... a lot of trust to put into someone who has no clue what she's doing..." she smiles weakly. "But you're probably right about what other people say."

"You think I know what I'm doing?" Becca asked, smiling weakly. "I'm... scared out of my wits half the time."

"I know... But you know what what else?" she asks, leaning across the table to Becca. "I think so's everyone else. They're just really good at lieing about it."

Becca bit her lower lip, leaning in too. "I... I'm terrified when I stop to think about any of it. And it confuses me. All of it. But... I want to trust you."

"We'll figure it out. Together." she smiles. "Promise."

And then she does her own bit of 'pretending she isn't scared' and kisses Becca, trying to ignore the fact that people are probably staring.

Becca blushed bright pink, but didn't hesitate in kissing Nailah back. She didn't draw it out, being a firm believer that too much PDA was rude, regardless of genetic status or sexual orientation, but she certainly didn't try to rush it too much, either. She settled back down with a silly, happy smile on her face. "You know... one day we won't be all nervous about everything. Maybe. I hope," she said, almost giggling.

"Sure. When we're in our room and no one is watching." she chuckles weakly, her eyes fixed on Becca to avoid confirming her suspicion of being watched. "And well, I know you don't believe me but in that dream you totally weren't nervous about anything. Not even a little. Kinda like how you are now when you're teasing Sam or me." she smirks slightly.

"And you were flying," Becca pointed out, grinning a little.

"I do like to think I manage to learn how to in the next ten years or so." she snickers.
