Kevin Looked at MsForst with widened eyes thinking that she knew what was going on with him and Chase. he was'nt sure but he felt a little imbarased being caught flirting, not that he was a shamed of himself being gay, but because it was kind ofa sleezy thing to be doing, betting on 'favors' with winks and lip bitings. It was just this side of tacky and he was blushing as she turned away.
Oh,Kev what are you gonna do now? Emma might know, looks like she did and she was tryin to say to be careful with that boy. He looked at how the Headmstress caried herself and was taking notes, he would be like that one day. He wanted to be as elegant and graceful as her and as powerful. Not powerful with his mutant power, allthough that would come he knew, but powerful as a person with confidence and self insurance.
Just like with Kris, got to play it smart. This boy is difarent though he's not as open and that makes it strange, but that's his game, and I need to play MY game or I'm gonna be the loser in this one. He thoht about it a bit more, nibbling on the pretzel he had taken. He found his voice then and his confidence "Uh, no I don't think I want to bet. It does'nt make it any more fun for me, and besides if you want something from me you should ask me. Really, you need to do better than that." He smiled and winked at Chase and his tone was more of a mater of actly one than the flirty one he had a minute before. He was not going to get taken uh vantige of, not after MsFroat just told him to be careful.

The new kid looked really scrawny and not attractive at all. Bet he doesn't have a hair on his balls yet. She snickered at her joke but then stopped once she remembered that Frost was in the room. Lian's type in guys were the muscled badass ones, like Dante. She had her own share of guys back home but that was different now. Now guys were way different here than in L.A., and from her own neighborhood in Compton. She acknowledged him with a respectable nod before looking back to the table. Luckily her attention was caught by the proposal of a certain card game.
Smacking the table with great anticipation, Lian was more than into playing a good game of Bullshit. "Yes," she said enthusiastically. "That is a game we can play. Five people to the max, so who's in besides me?" Lian was finally going to be able to use her poker face. She wouldn't be getting any money, but she did always come up with completely awesome bets when she would play with Sky, Chase and Riker.
A sly smirk krept on her face as she adjusted her seat in her chair and got ready for the new game. Bluffing was a talent of hers, and it was in her blood. She watched Maddy and how good she seemed to be at cards. Lian also saw her and Dante looking at each other a couple of more times than they should have been. Ah another add to the challenge, she thought triumphantly. Alright then... let the games really begin. She folded her arms and prepared herself for the devious game ahead.

"Why Ms. Frost ma'm, I'm just playing as innocently as possible," Sky had said to Emma just as she started walking away, smirking wickedly. She gave Kat the thumbs up sign, and giggled at Gavin's reaction to getting pinched a good one on his behind. "Nice one!" she said with a giggle and tipped her head back to finish her soda, letting out a loud burp when she finished that shook her whole body. Sky patted her stomach, grinning widely at the group. "I will now and forever remain THE champion," she said with a grin and stuck her tongue out at Chase.
She hopped up on the edge of the pool table and brought the pool stick behind her to take her shot, balancing her the stick and lining it just right, with the cue ball. "Check it out Kev, this is how ya do it," she said with a wink to him and hit the ball with a careful amount of force, sending it flying across the table and sinking two balls in one hole and having the cue ball stop right in front of the pocket. "Booya! That's right boys, we got one more ball to sink in and we win!" She said and hopped off the table.
Sky twirled the pool stick from side to side and pointed at Kat. "C'mon Kat, bring us home and show me the money!" She hopped up on the window ledge and looked outside with a grin. She was planning on checking in with Austin before his bed time came, and she had a bit of time. Whenever she played pool, Sky found herself missing her family like crazy. Being the only girl in a family full of guys was no easy thing, but Sky loved it. Her brothers were all characters, ranging from her shy baby brother Milo, Rex the professional thief, Jude the corporate business man, and Gabriel her brother with a green thumb that lived in the middle of a huge botanical garden in their grandparents backyard. Then of course there was her parents, her mother who owned an organic food store/deli and her father who spent his time at home leading people to journeys of spiritual enlightenment, whatever that meant. And Sky loved everything about her wacky family.

With the Ace of Spades on the table, Dante wasn't going to throw in a heavy hitter since they already got it anyways. He placed the three of spades on the pile, giving the book to Niki again. "Breaking Spades huh? I dig it, take it away girl," he said and leaned back in his chair, looking up at the Headmistress as she came over to them. Dante had to dig the way she walked like she owned the room in those impossible high heels. He had seen the X-Men on TV a couple of times, remembering only thinking that the women were lookers like anything else.
Then again there were a lot of girls here that were lookers, even at the table he was sitting at. At the same time, it was like the biggest mix of class he had ever seen. All the rich girls were together, and all some kind of lookers. Veronika was just wow, one of the cutest little figures he had ever see. Her tall friend Ana was too thin for his tastes, but not unpleasant to look at. The only thing he saw though was that they were all squares, and he knew when he was outclassed. It was just something he didn't bother with, seeing many of his own friends mess with the more elite of Chicago as a playtoy. That wasn't his thing.
He nodded to the Headmistress politely, not saying anything else being the quiet observant one. Dante minded his business and was the type that spoke only when needed or when he wanted to make a point. He didn't have much to say now anyways, he was only itching to go out and have a smoke, maybe have a chance to collect his thoughts on things.

"Shussshhh Ripple I'm tryin to concentrate." k'8 said as the tip of her tongue stuck out the corner of her mouth. "Uh, I'm confused partner," she said to Maddy as she moved her cards around in her hand grabbing her last spade, the ten, and pulling it up "does that mean you're out of spades? It does, right? Since Niki led spades."
She threw down her ten and folded the rest of her cards together to place them face down on the table. "Uh, I'm out too so I guess we lose, right? Sorry, I just don't like this game as much as it seems you need to to make it fun and since everybody's showing up now maybe we could switch it up to include Lian and Jasper?" Her eyes got wide and blinked a cute please to Dante and Niki. "I promise you both to learn and then we can play again, and Maddy'll learn too, Okay? Okay Maddy? How about it, poker sound good to you guys?" She smiled at her partner as she conceded the game to let Dante and Niki win and the rest of the group join in.
Sliding her seat to the left she waved Emma over. "Oh please play with us Miss Frost, I would love to play with you- OH! And Kitty...Kitty! Hey-" she waved to her. She could tell as she had seen her watching the game from off just a ways, that she was trying to not be nosey but she wanted to join them. The look on her face was how she got at some of the team practices when she would get right in and mix it up with the New Mutants. "Come on, pull up a chair."
Katie was done being anti-social and she scooped all the cards up pulling the rest of the cards from Dante and Niki's hands with a 'Thaaank you." and holding out her hand for Maddy to place her cards on it so she could shuffle. "Okay! Everybody comfy? Great the game is Five Card Draw," she pulled the jokers out and put the two red cards back into the deck "One-Eyed Jacks are wild." She waited for everybody and anybody who wanted to play to take a seat before she began to deal but the look on Jasper's face was too precious so she concieded yet again "Okaaaay, we'll play Bullsh- uh" looking up at the two teachers she blushed "BS, okay? Unless you guys would rather play poker. Oh, hey Maddy? You wanna divvy up those chips so we can like bet and stuff? Wait is there betting in BS?" she said as she shuffled the cards.

"PFffttt! Yea, I do do better than that little dudette-man." Chase said getting up from the window ledge seat to slink up behind Skylar and grab the hairs at the nape of her neck in his lips. "RRrrr, shey shexy." he said out of the corner of his mouth. He tugged her hairs gently before letting them go. "You trying to kill me over here? I had all kinds a stuff swimmin in my head here. Like you in one a those giant martini glasses wearing a little lime flavored, Paragon green, bikini." He let his mind wander back to the image he had been enjoying as the stripper scene had evolved into something a bit more wild. Chase was a little upset that Kevin had reacted the way he did. He wasn't going to give himself away though, even if the kid was hot in his way, it just wasn't worth it to him to out himself. He was going to have to rethink his strategy and play it way more hands off. He glanced back at Kevin as he sniffed Sky's neck. "Hmm what's that you're wearin? Is that barbecue sauce? Ahhhhahaa!" He closed his eyes as he bit her neck. "You know I can't resist the sauce." He looked back again at Kevin hoping the kid wasn't too pissed about what he had said. He still wanted to get with him though, there was something about the little guy that Chase was hot for. Then in his mind the image of Sky changed, morphing from her in the giant martini glass swirling around in some bubbly water to- Oh my god, no. No waaay. Duuuude

"Here you go miss. You owe me for being the nicest person on earth." Ricki teased, sticking her tongue out at Ivy as she passed on one plate of Chilli-Cheese toast to Ivy. Ricki wasn't the best cook around, but she knew could whip up a few nick-nacks to make sure that she didn't starve. She called noodles and chilli-cheese toast her specialities seeing those were just about the two things that she could get spot on right. "Hey, you wanna sit and watch the game? 'Cuz I feel like going and annoying the others and seeing how the pool game and cards stuff is coming along." There weren't too many people left watching the baseball game anymore, and it was dulling up a bit for Ricki.
She knew Ivy was fairly serious about her baseball, so she didn't really want to force her to get up or anything if she didn't want to. "I'll head off to go annoy those peeps, come along once you're done with your game miss dwayne, and critisize my cooking all you want!" Ricki giggled as she spoke and straightened up from her half leaning against the arm-rest of the couch position. "Or you could just come along now, and have Ian tell you the score." Ricki grinned at Ivy, before turning on her heel and skip-walking over with her plate of chilli-cheese toast to go have a look at the game of cards that was going on.
She was tempted to join the people when they'd decided to sit down to play initially, but Ricki didn't really think that she was good enough yet to play with these guys, 'cause hell, she'd just learnt the basic rules of poker this morning. She just didn't know the tricks of the trade, hence didn't want to get herself stuck in something that she was just going to fail miserably in. "Heeelllo! you guys don't mind if I watch, do ya?" Ricki chirped as she came to a halt behind Jasper, on the table, before picking up a peice of her chilli-cheese toast and taking a small bite.

"I'm good with either game, but I'm sitting the first round out," Dante said taking the glass to down the last of the sweet tea. It tasted even better the Arizona one he used to buy in a can back home, but then again he knew from experience that things tasted better made from scratch. He may not have gotten much growing up in his neighborhood, but he never went hungry living under his parents roof with him mom and dad constantly cooking and bringing food from their small Italian restaurant. No one could find better Italian Food than at Nicola's, his family restaurant. When Dante had dropped out of school, he worked there a couple of days a week and his mother taught him to cook.
"I'm going out back for a bit." He glanced at Emma Frost when she was near and stood up. He was really itching for a smoke, and he would adhere to the warning to keep his habit out of sight. Dante nodded his head to the new people at the table, trying to show some manners his parents taught him. "S'cuse me," he said to the group and turned around to leave without another word, heading out of the rec room and to the back door. He wanted to go by the lake and have a smoke, maybe think on some stuff and get a break from the crowd.
Granted, Dante was gradually getting used to the place, being here for only three days now, but it was similar to the feeling in Juvie, how after a couple of days you had to know your way around there or you didn't survive. Here it was actually similar, just on a different level. Either way, he kept to himself and minded his own business respectfully. He didn't know how long he was going to stay here, but however long it was he wasn't looking on making a permanent tie if he could help it.

Glancing up through her long dark lashes at the group, Veronika smiled mysteriously at the group. "I do have one more photo shoot this upcoming weekend, but after that it should be ready in a month. I do love having a mother who owns the agency and a the best nutritionist and trainer in the country," she said with a giggle and flipped the page of the magazine she was looking at. "Do not worry, you will be the first to know when it comes out!" She winked at them and giggled again, sitting up.
"And Kris darling, do not go crazy with Tia, she wants elegant chic short, not Studio 54 short," Veronika said gently to her dear friend, winking at Tia. Kris had a tendency to get carried away when he got an idea in her head, and she didn't want Tia to end up with blue streaks. It's bad enough one person in the school looked like a smurf exploded on his head, the last thing this school needed for its image is two. As if there are not enough freaks at the school.
Tossing her hair to the side, Veronika scoffed at the ongoings at the Pool table. It was positively demeaning that her best friend let her guy carry on like that. The way Veronika saw it was that it was always good to give your guy some room to breathe, but never let him forget who holds the balls in their hands. Granted, Veronika only had one boyfriend in her life, but she used her mother as the prime example, watching how she managed to work a room and still handle her Papa so well. She let out an adorable sigh and sat back in the chair, pouting slightly as she thought of the new kid that Emma Frost brought it. "Why can we not have more good looking new boys?"

"That's Game Point..." he spun his men and drove the ball home into the goal just squeaking it past Fleet's goalie "..right THERE! Young man, and you need to watch that 'old man' stuff or next time I won't take it so easy on you." He reached a hand over the table and tousled Kyle's hair before holding out his hand to shake.
"Ahh I'm teasing, you played great! You had that run of three goals in a row and I could tell you even listened to what I was trying to tell you." He smiled at Kyle as he reached over to zero out the scores. "So, you a baseball fan?" He asked as he glanced over at the television. "I'm gonna grab a drink and then watch the rest of the game." He started to walk away and said "Oh, you do need to watch the old man comments. In the heat of the moment I can overlook it but Kyle don't forget yourself. Respect is a two way street."
He cupped a hand on the boy's shoulder to let him know he wasn't mad or upset, but concerned for him before he walked off to the kitchen. Seeing the room empty he walked to the refrigerator and pulled out a bottle of water before walking back to the rec-room and sitting down on the couch. "Alright so, who's winning?" He looked at the faces of the students watching the game and could tell some were not happy at the way the it was going. "What inning are we in?"

Gavin yelped loudly when Kat got a good grab of his behind and had missed his shot. He was currently very unhappy and glaring at Kat. "This," he motioned his hand around his whole body. "Is not the All you can eat buffet. You gotta EARN this, yea that right. And BOTH of you are very naughty, naughty girls." He put a firm and hurt look on his face, although the whole time he was holding back a smile. "I can't work like this, this is too much pressure. I have a fragile soul you know," Gavin said and made a dramatic move of shoving his pool stick at him and putting a hand to his forehead.
"You can take my money. You can take my innocence, but you will never take.... MY CHERRY COLA!" He grabbed the bottle of cherry coke from the window sill and made a show as if he was running for his life. "FREEDOM!" Gavin yelled and ran right to Heather, tackling her to the floor and holding the bottle of cherry coke to her neck like it was a knife. "You steeeal mah cherry coke mami, I KEELL your famlee," he said in a ghetto Spanish accent. He sat up and held her down while looking at the others in the group, shaking the bottle at them as if it was a knife. "And that goes for you too eses." He added in the same accent.
After giving them the crazy eye stare for a minute, he got off Heather and sat on the floor as if nothing happened. "So whatcha guys doing, what's all the gossip? Like O-M-G I love your hair!" he said in a really girly and silly voice, stopping to laugh. "No seriously what's up? And I'm not sharing my cherry coke, I don't care how you torture me."

"I see" he said to Chase "but it looks to me like she's slumin" he said the last bit under his brethe but he knew that Kat and his very own Riker would hear him. Then he spoak regulur "So I would have bet on you girls but I did'nt think it was fair because, well just look at you two, gorgous you both of you." He felt it best to chose sides and stick to his own, girls that is, plus he wanted to make things difficult for Chase now that he knew the boy wanted him.
It was way too obveus, the way he kept looking over at him and how he had tried to play him with the betting for a favor. Kevin knew just what kind of favor Chase would ask for and the truth was he did'nt know who would be worse to hook up with Kris or Chase. Kevin wanted more then he touht ether of them could be for him, he had standerds and he did'nt want to comprumize.
On the one hand he had Kris who was probubly more a girl than him. That queeny Kris would make him do all the boy stuff to him and not give Kevin any of the kinds of action he was after and that would'nt be any kind of a fun time to have at all. Then there was Chase who would treat him like the girl as far as he could tell, but he wondered about that too. There was always the thing about touff acting bi-boys that they wanted to be a boy with the girls, and be taken like a girl by the boys, so Kevin was totally conflustered over him. At least with Kris the two of them could be out in the open about it, but it just seamed hardily worth it.
He shook his head at Chase's put on act of kissing a girl and walked off to spend some time with Veronika and the rest. He was cuncernt for Ana and he needed to see what Kris was up to. There was too much drama and the new kid was sure to be something to ask about to take his mind off of things with Rumble and his friends. He half wished Niki had done something to hurt him because he did'nt want to think about that guy messing with Ana or Loralaie anymoare or when Aideen got back how he would treat her. She had saved his life, and Loralies too, so for him she was great and he hoped she was having fun wherever she was. "Hey what have I missed?" he asked as he sat near the fireplace and looked at Tia and Kris. "Oh, no not her hair Kris. It's too nice to hack apart." he could see how he was looking at Tia's hair and he knew what that look ment.

Heather looked at Veronika, content at the fact that she was going to be featured in a magazine. It was beyond cool to the New Mutant and she was so happy for her best friend/roommate. Heather was actually lucky enough to get the photographer's name, thanks to Veronika's generosity, in case she wanted to show him some of her designs and feature them in the magazine as well. Heather needed to think about it of course. The whole fashion designer within her was currently at a halt and most of the work she drew were still-life or visions she had. It had been a while since she used her oils and actually painted her own work. It was a part of her that she missed dearly.
"Veronika you have to take us next time you have a shoot," she finally said enthusiastically. "It must be so amazing... having a life of glamor like that." Unlike her friends, Heather came from a middle class family. Her dad's firm was good with business but he didn't make any kind of extravagant money. Veronika, Kris, Ana and Tia however, were all wealthy; something Heather once hoped to be until her "puberty" changed all that.
Taking her magazine, Heather rolled it up into a tight blunt object and smacked it against Gavin's chest. "NO.... NO," she said in a mocking way. Gavin was about to receive a can of "whoop ass" just then. "Bad Gavin," she continued. The whole point was to treat Gavin as if he was a bad dog. She liked demeaning him since he had the upper hand in strength. Heather was working on that of course and Kitty was helping her out a lot. Soon she was going to start gymnastics training. It was basic in order to understand flexibility and movement that would advance her knowledge in martial arts.
After finishing, Heather dropped her magazine and grabbed the cherry cola out of Gavin's hand. "Looks like I got your cola," she replied with a smug smirk. She pretended as if she was going to open it, wanting to see if it would make Gavin try anything. She was ready for another brawl since the fight in the stables wasn't over. That battle was lost however the war was still on.

"I do not think that her hair short would be horrible thing," Ana said from her place on the floor, after giggling at Gavin's little entrance. She always found him incredibly cute, and so funny, but not enough to make an effort to get him for herself, even if Heather didn't like him. "I still like it long though. And are we even allowed on photo shoot?" She asked and winked at Tia, flipping the magazine full of the top 100 best looking celebrities in the world. Ana had a variety of a taste in guys, not very much like anyone else's in the school. She liked the tall model guys with lean muscles and long limbs, hair covering their eyes and on some guys, she loved the dark eyeliner. At the same time though, Ana went crazy for bad boys, the kind that would horrify her parents to know that she was even interested in. Something about them just made her feel so deliciously naughty inside, and her and Veronika positively drooled over them.
Just like now as her breath hitched looking at the spread on Brad Pitt, blue grey eyes lighting up in delight. "Oh my, Brad Pitt... now he is very uh... what is word, versatile? Kris come look so you see what I talk about," she said to her best friend and scooted over so he could see with her at the magazine. He was her best friend, and for the life of her Ana never understood what he saw in pretty boys he was into, especially when Ana knew several of the gorgeous rougher looking boys through her functions that she knew would just love Kris with his classic good looks and dressed like he stepped out of a GQ magazine.
"Look see Brad Pitt is uh pretty yes? Clean cut here," she pointed to a picture of him in The Case of Benjamin Button. "Hair nice yes? Not as pretty as that Chad Michael Murray you like but very nice." Ana grinned at him and the put her thin finger on another picture. "Now look at him here in Fight Club! with that cigarette in his mouth shirtless with tattoos covering his very beautiful body. Oh and here from Troy! Oh my look at him with long hair! Oh he is dreamy, like a Greek God yes?" Ana gushed looking at the picture of one of her favorite celebrities. "What about someone like him looking rough? It nice yes?"

"Oh Gavin, you make me laugh!" Kris mused, chuckling at Heather's boyfriend and rolling his eyes. "But Heather sweetie, you must not let a man treat you that way!" he added, his tone teasing her, before shifted himself a bit to get a better look at the pictures Ana was showing him. "Oh my Anna! Is that Brad Pitt?! I have not seen that picture before!" Kris' eyes widened for a moment as he stared at Brad Pitt. Daamnnnitttt. Kris'd always categorized Brad Pitt as too much of a tuff guy to pay much attention to him, but woaaah these pictures made him look downright smexxy.
Kris was beating himself up on the inside now- why, why why had he not decided to google Brad Pitt before? He'd seen the picture from Fight Club before, and that was when Kris'd decided to but Brad Pitt in the 'reserves' category. Well, wasn't that a big mistake? Any guy who was capeable of looking good with three different hairstyles, and some completely different Aura's sure as hell had Kris' attention. If only he'd seen the first picture before... mmmmm.... "Oh Ana, I need that poster for my room!" Kris said, his voice dreamy, to match Ana's words. "I think it's time to call my mother yes? Is there anything you want from England? Oh I just have to get all of these posters now!"
Kris hadn't thought it possible for any hot boy to look pretty or visa versa- but Brad Pitt here, he was just... w-oah.
"Mmmmmmmm........" Kris sighed deeply, before his eyes vaguely flickered upwards to see dear Kevin standing there. For the briefest of moments, Kris tried to imagine Kevin with his hair cut crop short and tattoos covering his body and a cigarette in his mouth. The image just wouldn't form. Kris sighed - well there was a disappointment, but Kevin was still a cutie. "I'm sorry, what was it you asked earlier Kevin darling? I'm just a bit dazed...." his eyes dropped back to the magazine, and Kris tilted his head to lean against Ana's shoulder.
In all honesty, Kris was so caught up by Brad Pitt at the moment, he couldn't even take offense to everyone going off on him like he was about to murder poor little Tia's hair.
