The heat didn't bother her. And while summer hadn't quite come full force, the temperature still hanging about 80, there was certainly heat when the sun beat down on black leather. And Laura wore a lot of black leather. But she had endured much worse than heat in the life that she lived before Xavier's. Much worse. Things were different now, something that still amazed Laura to this day. When she woke up and she wasn't afraid; that she never felt cold, lying sleepless and hungry at night. There was hope now. If only she could convince herself that she deserved it, if she could push down that voice that reminded her of what a monster she had been. What a monster she still was. Laura heard Jubilation's footsteps from far away. She stood straighter up. She never looked happy, but she knew that things registered on her face, those dark thoughts had their own shadow on her features. So she pushed them away. Nothing was worse than being asked about them. She tucked her hair behind her ear and looked up at the sun, and then stood up. |
