I became very confused when we pulled up to the large metal gates. "I thought you said we were going to a school?" I questioned.
"We are," replied Logan. "It's just through the gates."
Holy crap. Maybe the school wouldn't be too bad. The gates opened and Logan drove the motorcycle through. My eyes widened as I saw the school through the trees. It was a large stone building, which looked almost like a castle. We pulled up to the building and the motorbike stopped. The school at least looked awesome .
"Hey kid, you can get off now." I let go of his back and hopped off rolling my eyes.
"I told you my names Hailey so stop calling me kid."
"I think kid better." He quipped as he got of the motorcycle. I reached over and smacked his arm. " That's my line." I complained.
"Don't hit me kid." He said bluntly opening the doors effectively killing the banter.
I slipped in behind him...
And was almost knocked over by a kid running by. I frowned. The place looked like it would be busier than I thought it would be. Which I guess is both good and bad.

The inside, from what I could see was almost as nice as outside. There was a huge stone fireplace on the wall facing me. The walls were covered in wooden panels and the stairs were made of the same wood. A group of teenagers walked by whispering and casting glances at me. I pushed my shoulders back to stand tall, to disguise my anxiousness. That was another rule, don't let people know that you are scared. However somehow Logan sensed my nerves and sent me a reassuring smile. I stared at him in shock.
"My god, he smiles! Someone grab a camera this needs to be documented!" I said smirking slightly. His smile faltered for a moment then he rolled his eyes.
"Like I said kid, you really are something."
That was twice he had said that.
"What is your definition of something then?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

Before Logan could answer a girls voice rang out in the hall. "Logan!" It cried.
I turned and saw a pretty girl with a white streak through her hair run forward and hug Logan.
"You miss me kid?" He asked when she pulled away, a smile on his lips.
"Not really." She replied sweetly with a shrug.
"Hmm. How are you doing?" Logan asked affectionately. It was the first time I had saw him really look happy.
As they talked in the corner of my eye a boy walking slowly towards the two. I turned my gaze to the approaching figure and my eyes met a pair of striking, icy blue eyes. The person who these eyes belonged to was a tall brown haired boy who sent a warm smile towards me with his eyebrows raised, questioning my presence. I simply smirked at him knowingly.
"Oh! Who's this?" I heard the southern accented girl asked shyly. I turned towards her with a small smile.
"Rogue this is Hai...."
"I'm Hailey." I interjected. "Who can introduce herself, thank you." I turned from the girl to glare at Logan.
"Are you joining the school?" She asked .
"I guess that's up to your......principal?"
"Professor X." She supplied smiling.
I narrowed my eyes and looked puzzled at her.
What kind of name was Professor X?
A laugh rang out in the hallway and I glanced over to see the boy I had noticed earlier throwing his head back in laughter.
"What's so funny?" I asked irritated.
"Oh your face." He chuckled.
"Who's this?" Asked Logan nodding at the boy.
"Oh this is Bobby he's my......."
"Boyfriend..." supplied the blue eyed boy who reached out to shake Logan's hand. A quiet crackle could be heard as ice began to form on Logan's hand. My eyes widened as I stared at the phenomenon. Bobby then turned to me with a wink. I narrowed my eyes at him. Suddenly I was overwhelmed with an urge to, for the first time in my life, use my...well my abilities on purpose. Not when I was threatened but for fun. For some reason I didn't want this boy to look down on me. Subconsciously I wanted his approval. And it made me kinda mad.
"Awesome party trick." I deadpanned.
"You're just jealous new girl."
"As if." I scoffed.

Yay! I managed to update in less than a week 😌
I'm going to attempt to update more often and it should be easier now that I'm actually onto the movie plot.
I am going to elongate the time between the events in some of the film.
