Thing is Cameron's face wasn't sad when he was telling me about his story . In fact , it wasn't angry either...it was emotionless . Like he has had enough of everything that's happened to him that he feels nothing now . I guess I am the first person he had talked to after all ...Although it makes me feel special , I wish I haven't known.. Believe me , I am happy he had gotten this whole lot out of him to me but it is just so sad . And I don't want to crack up for this because he is strong and all what he wishes for is to stay strong . So he will probably feel 'pathetic' if I cried . I just stay silent until he gets up and says , " I have got some things to do . Sleep ." and he walks towards the door but I stop him , I need to tell him about the school . He'll fit there so well and he'll be that popular mysterious guy and it'll just be great . He'd have fun there...and fun is one of the things he never had .
"Cameron! "
"yeah ?.."
"Look , remember Professor Xavier ?..Look he is a mutant as well.." I say..sorry Professor , I had to tell him without your knowledge..
"What ? Really ?"
" yes. And he has a school. Not just an ordinary school . It is a school for gifted youngsters . For mutants , like you and me . " I say , hoping he agrees or at least gives it a thought . I didn't expect his reaction though , his face brightened up and his eyes started glowing as he said , " Oh my god a freaking school ?! so there are other mutants ..that means they are many ? what do they do in these schools ...oh wait I can imagine it a school for mutants then it is not normal it is like depending on improving our powers!" aww , he is really excited . "Can I go like now ?" he asks .
"haha , I don't know . Let me ask the professor and tell you ."
he smiles and now goes to his bed , he is not leaving to do whatever he wanted to do .
I was really sleepy so I just rushed to bed too . We said goodnights and slept .
***
Next day , I told Professor Xavier about everything and he agreed to take him after the year finishes , just as the exact time of my visit . Because it would make a big fuss if Cameron left the school now . He said he still wants to see him and talk to him . And we studied for a while , trained for telepathizing then I went to my dorm . He wasn't as cheerful as he always is and he was always putting up this straight face , just a few slight smiles now and then . He probably had problems or something ..I mean he has a school and he is a professor in a university , he helps me in a way like private lessons so he has a lot of pressure . I actually feel guilty ,reaaallyy guilty because I am putting pressure on him for my own benefit...Hmph , I guess I am handling he curriculum pretty good now right ? I mean I have been working so hard and he was too , so I can tell him I am able to pass the exams by myself right ?..It'll be okay for me . Exams are actually after 4 days .
I sigh . Okay , I can depend on myself . I am gonna tell him and I am gonna pass them and Kyle won't fail the year . And I will travel to him , I will see him and we'll be happy again . I will help him to be as okay as he has ever been before . When Leo was still here . Anyway , I get out my phone -as I took a rest from studying - and decided to call Ian . Ask him if it is possible to talk to Kyle . But then my phone started ringing and it was an unknown number . "Hello ? Elena ?" it was a familiar voice .
"yes ? who is this ?"
" haha yeah good it is you , I thought I have mistaken the number . I am Erik , remember me ?" Oh , Erik . Maybe the professor gave him my number or something .
"Yes! I remember you Mr. Lehnsherr ."

"Great! So , have you noticed Charles acting weird today ?"
"Um , yeah of course . " I hear him murmuring something as "true love " but I guess I am imagining it because he was chuckling for some reason .
"Do not tell him about this call , but well , he is pretty tired . And he doesn't eat or drink ..technically he has no time for it , he is so busy these days...some mutant problems going on in this world..so I wanted to tell you to take care of him ?"
Ooh , mutant problems...wow...

"Oh sure , of course I would! " I say , cheerfully...I mean Erik called me specifically to take care of Charles- I mean Professor Xavier so I feel somehow special like a close person .
"Thank you very much . Now , bye Elena . " "Byee" I say and he hangs up . Well , it is still early now somehow , just 7 PM . I can go to his office at around 8 perhaps .
