It isn't really that happy, but I tried.

Peter watched the so-called Ice Queen. Her h/c hair was down and hiding her face. She wore a white shirt and ripped lose jeans with f/c converse. Her face was blank and held no sign of what's she was feeling, as always.

Her name was Y/N. She was always pretty, for as long as Peter had known her. She just always was. And no matter how cold and blunt she was, it didn't seem to stop the endless confessions arriving every week for a male student who thought he actually had a chance.

Peter found it amazing how people never fail to give up hope. And it was a pity to see their feelings squashed as she walked away, indifferent. That's another reason why they named her that, and her ability to change the temps true if everything she could touch.

"Hey, Y/N." Peter said, walking next to her.

He was her childhood friend, and knew her really well. They were not really close though because she always kept her distance from people. It was just her, and she was happy with that.

"Hello, Peter." She said as they walked into class.

As they sat down, he spotted a group of guys eyeing them. Mentally sighing, he knew that one of them would confess.

"Doesn't it bother you?" He asked as she unpacked her books.

She shrugged, not really paying attention or caring.

"I mean, what do they find so attractive?" He asked again. He inspected her and found that she want really that appealing. Sure she was pretty, but don't they care for other things also?"

"Some just like the 'mysterious' aura, or so they say." She answered. "And some just wants a trophy girlfriend."

Peter wrinkled his nose as he glanced back at the group of boys. "It's pretty pathetic."

"Like the random selection of girls that confess to you?" She had a dry smile on her face. "You can't insult my suitors without insulting yours."

"So you do care for these guys?" He asked.

"I'm not completely heartless." She rolled her eyes. "I just don't want to get their hopes up."

"So you shoot them down."

"Yes."

He chuckled. "Right, not heartless."

Ignoring him, she began to listen to the professor talk.

Peter watched as another suitor was shot down. She walked away from him, going back to reading her book from earlier. Peter jogged out of catch her.

"So you going to the library?" He asked.

"Actually, I have to meet someone." She said, closing her book.

Peter raised a eyebrow. "Really?"

"Yes, he wants to talk to me about the science project." She continued. "And he's one of those rich mutants."
