UPON waking up the next morning, Lyra found knocking at her door. If it's Logan again, Lyra thought in annoyance, opening the door. She never finished her thought when she saw her twin half siblings at the door. Pietro and Wanda Maximoff.

"Well, well, if it isn't my favourite little sister," Pietro said, grinning.

Wanda hit his shoulder. "I thought I was the favourite sister."

"You're my favourite twin sister. Lyra's my favourite little sister."

"It's like six in the morning, what are you doing here?" Lyra signed, eyebrows furrowed. Not that she was not happy to see them, but, well, she had stayed up late the prior night. After her date with Ororo, they went back to her place where they had a couple drinks and just talked for hours into the night.

"We just came to visit," Wanda said. The Romani girl walked inside as soon as Lyra stepped aside, Pietro running in after her (and with his super speed, it was more like he got in first).

"Wouldn't want you to miss us for too long," Pietro said, throwing an arm around Lyra's shoulder. When he got to her side, she did not know, but chose not to question it. His super speed was a headache as it was.

"Lyra, who-" Ororo started, walking out the bedroom after hearing the commotion. Seeing who was there answered her own question. "Oh. Hello Wanda, Pietro."

Pietro gasped rather dramatically. "Are you guys together?! Finally?!" he asked. Lyra nodded.

"Congratulations," Wanda said, smiling.

"Why are you guys here?" Lyra signed, once again.

"We can't just visit our sister?" Wanda said, tilting her head.

"Usually, when people show up at my door at six in the morning, they want something from me," Lyra signed.

"I don't," Ororo supplied.

"Yeah, but you're my girlfriend, so it's different."

"And we're your siblings! Really, we just came to visit," Pietro said, putting a hand on his heart as if swearing on it.

"...But also we heard, from Scott, that Ororo was in town and we need a ride back to New York," Wanda said, smiling sheepishly.

Lyra rolled her eyes. "This couldn't have waited?"

The twins, as if reading each others mind, shrugged in perfect sync. Lyra just sighed.

Lyra walked into work and was greeted by, surprisingly, Rossi. "Morning, Lehnsherr," he said. Lyra eyed him suspiciously. Why was he being so formal and polite? She put her stuff down at her desk.

"Hey, Little Red," Morgan greeted. "Rossi."

Rossi nodded back in greeting. "Nice restaurant choice. How was your date?" he said, looking at Lyra with a hint of a smirk on his face.

"Date? Lyra, you went on a date and didn't tell me?" Morgan exclaimed, sitting down on her desk. While he currently had more important things to worry about, this was his new priority.

"How do you know about that?" Lyra asked Rossi. Morgan translated.

"I go on dates too," Rossi said, shrugging. "Someone tell Prentiss I get two more points," he said, walking up to his office.
