Chapter Two: Black as Night

[Solace]

The arm around her shoulder didn’t go unnoticed by Paige; she wasn’t apposed to Vance’s arm being draped around her shoulder. That along almost made the young mutant want to scream at herself, she was married…not just married but happily married to lovely man who was probably not entertaining any kind of feelings for anyone of the opposite sex and her she was thinking the man next to her was not half bad looking and made for good company. “If we weren’t on a mission right now ah’d make a well placed kick t’ yuh’re ass.” Paige informed Vance, though the treat was empty and her tone was playful. At times it was nice to do a bit of flirting, especially since she hadn’t gotten any kind of romantic attention from anyone since being ripped from her reality, I mean even Tessa had gotten a few ‘looks’ from Sam.

“Claws? Do ah even want t’ know?” Paige’s voice trembled just a bit as she took in all of what Vance had said, this Logan sounded dangerous which was a very unsettling thing for the blond mutant to think about. “This might be a silly question t’ y’all, but ah’m wondering do any of yuh know the identities of other vampires in the city?” Her question hung in the silence that had engulfed their group, all lost in their own thoughts most likely it wasn’t uncommon for each of them to fall into thinking about other thing when they were given the opportunity and Paige almost wondered what it might be that Hank and ‘Toria were both thinking of as they walked, but that question would most likely go unanswered forever.
