agape [Sean Cassidy×Reader]

4. The Circle of idiots

Charles and Erik had been gone for about 7 hours, it was around 5 pm. Raven, Hank, and I were hanging out in the lounge room when the phone in the room rang. I picked it up. It was from Charles. "Hey would you mind coming to recruit this one guy Cassidy."

"Why?" I asked.

"This guy is different, he's your age I think it would be best if you helped recruit him." Charles said.

I sighed into the phone and agreed. I grabbed my coat and called a cab, he was only 30 minutes away, he was at an aquarium apparently.

After I arrived I met up with Charles and Erik. We were near the clown fish exhibit. A guy and a girl were standing next to the glass I assumed they were there on a date. The girl walked away from the guy. The guy in response did something to the fish in the fish tank. They all were taken aback by what looks like a powerful ripple that came from the guy. "These fish?" The guy asked the girl.

She turned around and looked at the empty aquarium, rolling her eyes and she walked away. The boy turned back to the glass tank. Charles nudged me. I sighed and walked forward towards the fish tank. "You probably just killed all of the fish in there." I muttered standing next to him.

He looked at me. He had freckles that littered his face, a head of the reddest hair I'd seen in my life, blue eyes, and red lips. He was oddly attractive. "So?" He asked looking at me.

"They're an endangered species." I said.

"So what do you work here too?" He asked.

"No, I don't work here. But I know something extraordinary when I see it Sean" I say. Turning back to the tank.

"Wait how the fuck do you know my name?" He asked freaked out.

"Im like you calm down. I'm not gonna hurt you. I can read minds, so chill out. My name is y/n." I say.

"Thats a beautiful name, for a beautiful lady. Pleasure to meet you y/n. You already know my name though." He said charmingly.

"Well thank you Sean. I'm actually here with some people that are putting together a special team of people like us to kick some guys ass. I was wondering if you'd like to join." I ask looking at him.

"Would you be on the team?" He asked.

"Yes." I nod.

"So I get to be like a superhero and I get to look at a pretty girl at the same time, count me in." He says.

"Really that's all the convincing it took?" I asked.

"Don't make me doubt my decision." He chuckles.

I motion to Erik and Charles to come forward. "This is my brother Charles Xavier, and this is Erik Lensherr. They're like us. They're gonna take us to a CIA building where you can meet the others they've recruited." I say.

Sean looks sort of intimidated by Charles and Erik, but shakes their hands nonetheless and Charles and Erik take a separate cab from Sean and I. Sean and I sit in the backseat together. Luckily the cab driver isn't really in the mood to talk. So I just tell him the place we're going and he closes the plastic barrier. "So how old are you?" Sean asked me.

"Seventeen. I turn eighteen in December." I say.

"Same, I turn eighteen in August though." He smiles fidgeting with his hands. "You act way older than you are." He says nervously.

"Thanks?" I question. "I don't know how I'm supposed to feel about that but thank you."

"Well I can't just say your hot, cause that's obvious. And unoriginal, so like I'm trying to not be unoriginal." He says.
