*Elena's POV *
I stare at the ceiling above me overthinking everything . This plan didn't really worked out as simple as I thought . I have a mutant teacher and a mutant roommate . A guy who knows I am a girl because he has many sisters . A slutty girl that likes me. Mmhm..yeah it isn't what I have actually thought would happen. And Kyle I haven't heard about him any single thing and I felt bad for not asking about him last time Dad called . I was so worried about his request that I actually forgot to ask about my brother...great sister , aren't I ?
Hmph , let's just stop thinking about that . I will text holly's brother now and ask him about how Kyle is .Just as I sent my text and shut my phone , he replied intantly .
" Kyle is great , El . He was asking about you by the way..how are you ?"
He asked about me ? Now I feel a thousand times more guilty .
"Really , he is? Is his mental condition good ?? And I am fine..I guess . Tell him I miss him."
I reply , crying for some reason..well if it wasn't for his grades , I would have been there in Germany finally .Well , you know , mom and dad didn't allow me to travel with them . They said I should stay here at home to enjoy my vacation..as if that would happen .
"He missed you too. Are you sure you are fine ? You can tell me if you want to . I won't worry , Kyle , I promise . "
He replies and oh he is like the nicest in our family . But I won't bother him with my problems . He doesn't need to worry plus Ian isn't the type who would just hear you and tell you "it is okay you can get through this " , no he may do anything reckless just to save you . Knowing him , he may actually come in Kyle's school by any way possible and help me .
I was just typing my reply when I felt my phone getting snatched from my hand . I look up and it was Cameron , when did he even come ...? I tried to make sure he wasn't here in the room , did I assume wrongly ?
"Hey! Give me back my phone! "I shout , getting seriously annoyed . I hate that move .
"Who's Ian ?""What the hell?? None of your business! Just give it to me!" I struggle to take it back but he raises his hand up high and well I am very short compared to him .
"Who.is.Ian ?" He sounds stern and annoyed .
"Why do you even want to know ??"
I ask and looking into his eyes , I read his thoughts .
She was freaking smiling while texting him . Who's that freak?!
Hey , why is he calling him a freak ?! Ian isn't a freak okay ? And what's wrong with me smiling ? I was happy about how concerned he is .
"Just fucking tell me!" Wow ..he is so mad huh ?
"He is my cousin okay?"
Is he satisfied now ?
He stares at me for a couple of seconds and just throws my phone on the bed in the most awful way . I hate that kind of treatmemt , okay ? Who does he think himself is ?
"What's wrong with you?" I ask sighing .
"Just leave me alone ." He says , his voice softening a bit .
"...Cameron.." I say as I walk up to him so I can have an actual proper conversation with him.
"You don't understand anything leave me!" I can hear his voice cracking up...I can hear the sadness in it yet anger...it is full of rage but it is like he can't do anything about it..
I don't understand him..I don't get his weird actions...not just today , he acts differently alot .
I walk closer to him and try to say something when he gets up and moves towards the door .
"Cameron! Wait!" I call him trying to stop him . I want answers. I want to know about his past ..whether he tells me or I ..try my best to see events in his eyes : his past events . Which is something I have never tried before but yeeaah let's be a bit optimistic .
I stand in front of him and look directly into his eyes . "Can you please tell me what's the matter ?"
I am jealous okay ? How can you not notice , God! You were all goofy smiling while texting him .
...wait what ??
Shall I tell her ? What if she likes him ?
"It is just nothing.." he says but I don't believe it . His thoughts even hide something . I mean..he can't be JUST jealous ..he said I don't understand anything and his tone was sad and full of rage .
...why is he jealous though? That's another thing I am wondering about .
"Cameron , tell me ." I want to hear it from him . To hear EVERYTHING from him . I even want him to tell me that he is a mutant even if I already know . I need him to trust me ."...It is complicated." His voice is so calm now .
"I want to know ." I say , crossing arms .
"You should sleep , it is late .""No . When you tell me first.."
I insist .
She won't understand . Me being a filthy useless mutant who wants everything for himself .
"Cameron..I am changing rooms if you are going to keep hiding stuff and act in that way!" I won't change rooms but well..I am just trying to threaten him or something . Like we are friends , right ? Maybe he'd care ?.."No , no...I'll tell you..." he pauses and looks at me .
God, I don't have enough courage to tell her everything...just imagine her reaction..what have I done?Okay , I have had enough of this .
"Trust me , Cameron ."
Yeah , I revealed my mutation . I telepathized with him . He has a problem with telling me he's a mutant? Then I am gonna show him I am one myself .
He stares at me shocked for a moment like he was sure my lips haven't moved but he seems to shake it off as he is shaking his head.
"You are not delusional , okay?"
I speak again inside his mind and now he believes me enough that he is holding his head and his jaw drops . "You..you are..a..." he trails off .
"Yeah . A mutant...too ." I say . I don't know where I had got that courage and stubbornness from -I am always very awkward and clumsy - but I guess it is because he has been acting really weird and I am concerned about him ."Wow...now that explains why you stare all the time..." he gives a slight laugh and rubs the back of his neck nervously .
"So like ...thing is I am a mutant as you have already known I guess?...and...I don't know where to start..." he rubs his hands on his pants because they are really sweating hardly . He suddenly sits on the floor and gestures for me to come sit beside him . He held a notebook and a pen with him too .
"Don't laugh , okay ? That's the only way I can explain in . By holding a paper and a pen and just draw or write down what I say." He says , somehow smiling .
I grin and wait for him to explain .
***And I have never been shocked and sad at the same time that much in my whole life . Cameron's story was far more interesting and unexpected than I have thought . Let me explain .
When Cameron was a little kid , seven years old to be exact , he was a laboratory rat . He was sent to some mad scientist by his parents when they discovered that he can be invisible . They freaked out and practically gave him their son to treat him . But he imprisoned Cameron there and he didn't work on his genes and his mutation...he used him for an experiment . He made surgeries and experiments on a kid and actually succeeded . He technically 'played' in his brain , he messed up his brain's functions 'intentionally' which led successfully to messing up his behavior . His personality then seemed to change to a different new type . He'd be the shy awkward then outgoing bad-tempered...sane calm understanding then careless mad irresponsible...opposites of personalities would appear on him and his behavior would suddenly change multiple times a day . That explains his sudden change of actions that Professor Xavier was talking about...that is the missing point , Professor , you were right . He practiced controlling it after he escaped but sometimes it is too hard that he'd lose it and he would act very differently . He could have escaped earlier -As he escaped when he was 15- using invisibility of course...but since that scientist was the only person he saw and talked to for years , he grew trusting him and getting convinced by everything he says by time . He kept putting the thoughts of society hating him if he was free out of his 'shelter'...he told him people would try to kill him . He was being abused and tortured , and there was no sign that his parents were searching for him or something. He is now good at controlling his mutation , he practiced for years and he discovered he can even do magnetic fields that can be impenetrable , used for protection perhaps or other reasons . He improved his powers but he never showed it . Deep down , he still feared of the society so he is hiding . He never had family or friends , he was all alone . He actually had panic attacks when he first saw groups of new people in front of him after he escaped .
He had a hard life , a very hard life . I was speechless for literally half an hour now trying to digest all of this . Oh , Cameron...And then it suddenly hit me!...mmhm what if I get him to that school of mutants??
