X-Men: The Heart Of A Steel Man

Chapter 30: Happy birthday

"You...won't ever leave me right?"
"Why would I..? You are...an amazing person that I love...don't listen to what other people say, don't listen to other stories like ours...just let us live in the moment and love each other..."

"I'll take your word on that then.."  Placing both her hands onto his face she stepped up on something and kissed him.

"Mmh.." Nina smiled into her pillow and reached her hand over, instead of fill the usual large warm chest she felt a cold dented in spot on the bed.
"Piotr.." she mumbled and turned her head.
Ever since he sleep in her bed, one side of the bed had been now forever dented in wards, placing a smile on her face but soon stopped wondering where he was.

Taking in his longing scent before she got up she turned into her back and turned her head, his keys where still there along with a big wad of cash and a note. Sitting up she took the note and read.

Nina
Enjoy, it's all yours my love.
Piotr

She did a soft smiled but Sighed softly and tapped her arm for a second. Her eyebrows being furrowed and placing her arms around her knees setting the note down.

"Okay.." she mumbled and burned her legs over and walked to her closet. For the past few weeks he had been distant from her, thinking about their relationship. It got her thinking about the age difference once. He's 30 while she's 18, would t occur to him that she's young and wants to be with others? Is that what he may be afraid of and stopped talking to her for a while? She hadn't known what to think, only knowing that something was going on.

Grabbing her clothes she had taken off her or...his shirt most likely and placed it on the floor. Turning on the hot water in the shower she closed her eyes softly and let the water hit her face. Grabbing her sensitive shampoo she placed some I. Her hand and began to wash her antlers, knowing she had to keep them clean since they where a bit fuzzy and contracted dirt easily.

She hummed to herself and let the soap fall from her antlers onto her body. Sitting down for a bit she sighed and tapped her arm.
"Lonely..." she mumbled.

"On all days of days" standing up she turned the water off and had gotten some nice clothes on. She looked at the time.
"2:30.." furrowing she brows she had no idea she had slept for that long, probably because she worked very late at the animal shelter.

Walking or if her room it was a bit quiet. She walked down past some students and tried to fine Piotr, not able to find him she went for her father, then Rogue, then Jean and so on. Not able to find a single person.

This slightly made her wonder and her arms went around her self.
"I'll just go out then..." she mumbled and had gotten her mini purse and her keys, thinking and grabbing some cash and leaving some behind, and piotrs keys instead. Going to the she drove off and shrunk in her seat, only pulling over for a minute feeling her eyes swell with water.

She wanted to not cry, probably overthinking this entire situation but she could t help it. She had always spent this day alone with her grams but truly expected t to be bit different, she wasn't asking for a grand queen day or anything but just something from the people she genially cared about.

Placing the back of her hands on her face, wiping the falling tears she shook her head.
"My dads not even..." she blew her cheeks up and grabbed her wallet, seeing how much she had and counted, having just enough cash to go shopping. As she drove she calmed down, she knew that she would still love them, she knew hat they would...probably still love her even if some people forget things.

Feeling this was she stopped at the mall and grabbed her jacket going inside to shop only for a bit. Buying just small trinkets and some new clothes plus jewelry. As she walked passed a few things she saw rings, beautiful diamond rings just plastered in the case. A slow smile arose in her cheeks.
