Sitting on the floor still fuming Paige glared up at Norrin and anyone else in close proximity to her, although she did take his offered hand and allowed him to bring her to her feet although the whole time the young southerner didnât really listen to a word he or anyone else was saying. To her it sounded like a scolding for her behavior, and in Paigeâs opinion she hadnât been out of line at all, although she would think twice before hitting Rogue again after the little jolt she got. Tessa, ahâm not in the mood tâ be treated like a child. Paige mentally snapped at the telepath, although she counted Tessa as one of her dearest friends on the team and her words would have calmed Paige most days. But today wasnât a normal day and Paige was in a horrid mood and really just wanted to find a small corner and curl up in it until the mission was over and she could take a quick break and see her family and Jono to make sure that they werenât being lied to again. Because once burned you tend to be a little more wary of things. Brushing her blond hair away from her face, Paige straightened the hem of her jacket and dusted her backside off as she stood silently glaring at anyone who was brave enough to make eye contact with the young woman.
Shifting her gazes towards Tessa, Paige softened her glare just a bit and noticed that the older womanâs smile didnât reach her eyes and was in deed put on for show. Look yuh out of everyone know how we Guthrieâs can be, ahâm not in the mood tâ be preached tâ or told what ah did was wrong, If mah Sammy is anything like yuhâre reality of him yuhâll know that and injured Guthrieâs pride takes a long while to heal. So do my a favor Tess and let everyone know to steer clear of me. Paige trusted that Tessa would understand her reasoning for doing what sheâd just done, and wouldnât think anything worse of her for her outburst. Though the young woman was almost tempted to find someone else she could take here anger out on that wouldnât give her such a mind jolt upon doing so. It was times like these that she really missed having Sammy around at least she could hit him and not have to worry about being scolded to badly after all everyone would have just seen it as sibling rivalry.
Without a word Paige moved away from the small group towards the stairs, slowly lowering herself down onto the top step she curled her knees up and rested her chin on them as she gazed blankly out at the wall across from her. Ahâll come along Tessa, but ahâm not speakinâ out loudâ¦because ahâm not certain what ah might actually say. And with that Paige waited for everyone to get their act together and move to wherever it was they were going to move to.
