[10] Under the mask

Wattsons pov:

Once i reach my room i unlock the door and see the Dr messing with a few bottles of liquid on the counter, its weird to see honestly usually he does all his work in the lab like me. But non the less i take off my shoes and sit down by the table. "Good afternoon Dr. caustic!" I say with a smile. "Yes hello to you too mrs. Paquette" he says back making me smile. Acually now that i think more about it, i feel as if Caustic has been a lot nicer to me lately and im really glad he has! "Natallie? you alright?" he says looking me up and down. i flinch and laugh his question off "Oui, i am" He nods and looks back down at his liquid. "My appologies for cluttereing this area with my work, my desk was not in suitible shape for this test." He says still messing with his 'things'. "C'est bon, it's fine". 

He looks up at me once more in response and back down at his tubes. I sigh and look down at my feet, im not exactally hungry nor tired but i can't hang out with renee. I could possibly see if another legend can hang out such as pathfinder or mirage? so many options for just a days worth of time it just clutters my brain but thankfuly something came to stop me from going to deep into my thoughts. There was a knock at the door so i stood from my spot and walked over. I open the door and octane was there wearing his normal goggles and mask along with a blue shirt and black with gray decal pants. "Oh, hello octavio what brings you here?" i ask with a smile spread across my face. "Nothing much chica just ran over to see if you wanted to hang" He said putting his hands in his pockets. I think for a moment about how octane might mess with dr. Caustics work but i believe it will be fine.! maybe.. "Sure, come in." i say opening the door for him.

The adrenalin junky then walks in looking around a bit as i signal to Caustic that octane is here. I could tell he rolled his eyes but i just giggled it off. "Welcome to me and Dr. Caustics house!" I say to him. "Damn didn't know all the scientist lived together." He said nudging my soulder. I giggle putting my hand to my mouth and show him around a bit. It was the same layout as everyone elses room but i didn't really care, i liked the decorations! But then it was time for him to see my room so i opened the door and ushered him in with a bow. He laughed and walked on in first then i followed. 

I could tell that he was looking around my room but i could care less, i just hope he likes what he sees because it took hours.! "Nice place you got compadre!" He says running over to my bed and jumping onto it. "Merci, octy." I say with a tint of blush covering my cheeks. He then looks up at me and walks over quickly grabbing my hand and pulling me down onto my bed next to him. I feel my body begin to heat up and my palms get sweaty, but he still holds onto me with a pretty good grip! "u-uh.. octane?" I ask looking up slightly at the taller man. He looks down at me then away twards the celling and begins to take off his mask. I could feel my heart race, i had never seen his face before this point, was he really going to do it!? He then uncliped the side of his mask and let it fall off the side of his face as he lessened his grip on me. I couldn't help but stair at his features he had a sharp jawline with a clean shave inticating he had shaved quite recently, a septum piercing (nose ring) and a few scars opon his face. It was acually pretty hot and i don't say that about most.! He then turned his head to look at me slightly and sighed.

"Listen chica i don't open myself up very often to people and especially a person i just met but.." He said then pulling me closer to him with are faces so close to touching. At this point i was as red as a tomato feeling his breath on my face. "You seemed like an amigo i could trust, like no other legend i have met and i feel as if i could tell you anything and you wouldn't judge! So im asking that you don't go spitting out about what i look like, from one compañera to another?". I smile and nod slightly making him smile. I felt his hand on my face as the space between us was begining to close even more. I closed my eyes as i felt his hair slightly brush against my face but then there was a knock at the door. "I-I think i should get that" I say sitting up from my position on the bed and he follows to without a reply.He pulls up his mask and I then walk over to the door and open it to see Caustic looming above me. He looks over at octavio with a stern eye then back down at me. "I request that you assist me in work" He as- well said. "Oui i will be out in a minute." I say giving him a little smile. He nods and gives octane one last look before leaving. 

I sigh and close the door turning back to octane who was know up off my bed. He walks over and leans a bit over me oviously thinking about something. He then jurked up a bit "Chica, have you been around town yet?" He asked. "Non". "Well there is this great pizza place down town if you wanna go later." Octane said putting his hands in his pockets. I nod "perhaps 6:00 would be a good time for you?" i ask fiddling with my fingers. "Si, por favor" I smile and nod opening the door for him and i to exit. He then walks out with me and heads for the door. "See you later, octy" I say waving me goodbye. He then closed the door as i heard his footsteps eco across the hallway. I sighed it was sad to say goodbye to a friend even if you would see them soon but i shook off the sadness and walked over to Caustic.

"So Dr, how can i help?" i ask standing next to him. "There is a beaker filled with hydrogen peroxide to your left, i need you to slowly pour it into this jug as i add my solution as well." He stated picking up a gas mask and givving it to me. I take it from his hands and put it on making sure no bad air policules would reach me. I then pick up my beaker and raise it above the thing of, water? i not really sure what it is.. He then picked up his and we both poured are liquids in. It smelt very weird and a cloud of green gas arose from the top causing the Dr to put the lid ontop of it. "Thank you mrs. paquette." "The plesure is all mine". i say with a big smile. I then help pick up the mess me and Caustic made and move it around, and after that was done i headed to my room and got to drawing up my next big idea.
