*Story of Us* Young! Charles Xavier x reader

Chapter 1

A/N: looking back this chapter and the next is way too long but don't worry chapters do get wayy shorter and hopefully the more I write this story my writing would get better.
Y/n POV

Two months ago you were discharged from hospital since then you got your act together got a loan and moved back to New York where you stayed at your brothers house until your job saved some cash. Now it has been almost three weeks since then, and You were seated on your favourite bench in the park which was a custom for you every day after work, sipping your drink while watching the bird in front of you try fit half a sandwich in its mouth.

The bench shifted as too young men sat beside you. You went to stand as a reflex but found yourself sitting back down, which was the opposite of what you wanted. "Hi there I'm Erik Lehnsherr" the tall lean man with short brown hair and blue eyes spoke with a German accent, you glanced warily in his direction. The gentleman to your left introduced himself as Charles Xavier. You almost choked on your drink when you head his name. the name familiar from that alleyway months ago, a distinctive British accent the one who saved yourself from the gang. You smiled politely, "I'm y/n l/n". You ended up having a lot to discuss with these men.

Time skip bought to you by _______
You were seated next to the window gazing at the world below you. You had only been on a plane twice let alone a private jet taking you to what was called Divison X. Fancy you thought. Looking up you were greeted by Charles who went to sit opposite you. You smiled shyly at him and he replied with almost boyish smile yet so serious. You haven't talked much to him, or anyone for that matter, living on the streets didn't exactly give you great social skills. You tucked a stray piece of hair behind your ear as the professor started properly introducing himself. You noticed you were always somehow glance at his eyes. The bluest eyes you had seen they seemed so wise as if they had seen pain all over the world. You got lost in your ocean of thoughts yet again,only to be pulled back to reality by Charles addressing your mutation.
"Y/n I'd love to say your mutation is truly unique. I hope I'm not overstepping but you have solar manipulation if I am correct?" Charles informed you, gosh you loved his voice.

"You are indeed, how did you.." you replied shocked that he knew your secret. You felt very self conscious what else did this new man that you knew hardly anything about know about you. You looked at Charles in disbelief and he corrected himself immediately
"Apologises love, I am a telepath and as you had already seen how I know so much about you or anything without sounding too cocky and my friend here Erik has metal manipulation." He gestured to the tall lean man drinking a whisky a few seats back. You nodded slowly grasping this information, it was a lot to take in consideration almost two hours ago you believed you were alone.
"I must say it's all quite overwhelming I thought I was alone" timidly you spoke up looking straight into his eyes. You could get lost in them.
"My dear you are far from alone." He spoke as he walked of to speak with Erik.

At the Division X headquarters...
You had settled in nicely , Raven and Sean immediately took to your liking when you first meet, you were also intrigued by this silent brooding Summers kid. You made a mental note to learn more about him. TodayCharles, Moira and Erik had gone of to do business not telling you what no matter how many times you tried bringing it you o to Charles. The rest of the new mutants meet up and you were excited to get to know everyone more.

You sat next to Sean on the couch drinking some (beverage of choice) while the others talked to each other.
" we should all have codenames now that we are government agents." Raven piped up.
Intrigued you leaned forward eager to hear what your code name would be. "I want to be Mystique" Raven declared smiling,
"Aw ,I wanted to be called Mystique.." Sean moaned childishly you laughed at this and playfully punched the boy next to you.
"We'll, tough, I'm way more mysterious than you" cheers broke out as Raven turned into Sean mimicking him.
"Banshee."
"Angel"
"Darwin"
Havoc" all these names suited their owner completely with their mutation.
And lastly, you presented to your class you gift. Making your way outside you held you hand out palm facing the sun. Closing your eyes you focused on the sun, the warmth hitting your face, the rays bouncing of your skin and everything around you, the light that casted shadows over the ground. The sky fluttered between dark and light as if the sun was trembling. Your eyes opened as you formed the warm energy into a ball tossing it from hand to hand grinning at your revelation, "I manipulate solar energy using it to my advantage, to shield, heal or attack" you stated as you turned ball turned orange as you through it across leaving a smouldering hole the ground giving the amazed teens a taste of your destructive side of your powers. Showing of just a bit.
"That awesome y/n!" Sean/ Banshee yelled, you felt a faint blush warm your cheeks, compliments you were cautious of as most spectators of your powers tried to beat you or kick you out. Disown you. Abandon you.
"We shall call you Flare." Raven yelled giddily  pointing at you and you smiled repeating the code names picked for you testing if it suited.
You accepted the name and to them, you were known not only as y/n but as Flare the master of solar manipulation.
