Nothing to see here...

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

Nothing to see here...

One might well ask why Samantha had left the dorm in her pajamas that night. One also might ask why it took her awhile to get back, particularly if they saw the silly grin on her face as she tried to quietly come back in...

Unfortunately, Becca and Nailah seemed to have noticed the open door to Sam's room and the empty bed and thus had turned the couch towards the door and were sitting on it, waiting for her to come back.

"Where do you think you're sneaking off to in the middle of the night, young lady?" Nailah asks, having a hard time not snickering.

"Don't think that you're too old for us to put you over our knee, either. Better make this good!" Becca added mock-severely.

"Gah! Uhm... I... heard a noise?"

It was mostly true.

"From where? Were you having a slumber party next door and didn't tell us? I thought we were friends, Sam..." Becca pouted.

Nailah gasps. "You were with Mike, weren't you?" she asks, giddy for her shy friend.

Becca didn't say anything, but got that 'I now have teasing ammunition to last me for at least a week' look on her face.

Samantha got a blush to her cheeks, but then narrowed her eyes at Nailah.

"...wait, how did you know?"

"Because you wouldn't have that dopey grin if it had been a girl," Becca suggested with a little teasing smile.

"Well I've been curious since she came home and said that she'd spent the afternoon in his dorm, but I'm glad that you've caught up with me," Becca said with a smirk.

"Well he's got a bit more reach than me, but late at night his shields start to get a little weaker as he gets tired, and he just can't help but get some of the emotions around the campus."

"And he notices that a lot of people get kind of lonely at night, so he goes up there to kind of try to... help?"

"I know it sounds weird, but it's really sweet of him, I think."

"You're making it sound creepy. That's not really what he does. It's just like... okay, say you're feeling really lonely and you just get this sort of warm sensation, and you don't feel so all alone. He's not changing anything just... backing you up?"

"Aaaand... that wasn't supposed to sound creepy?" Becca asked uncertainly. "Giving the kids a 'warm sensation'?"

She sighed.

"I'm probably not explaining it right, but it's seriously nothing creepy. I mean, it's like white noise."

That comparison seemed to pacify Becca a bit. Then she frowned. "You know, Nailah... that still doesn't explain that goofy smile she had on her face, does it?" she mused, her smirk returning.

Becca started giggling uncontrollable. "So... just remember, whatever Sam says happened? It was actually a lot more than that. THat'll be good to know for the future!"
