Lora sat at the bar, legs crossed, enjoying an afternoon drink and watching football on TV.

Gideon walked up behind Lora, and gave her a quick kiss before sitting down to order a drink.

"Is this the part where I say I don't get soccer?" Gideon asked with a smirk.

"Do any Americans?" She grinned. "It is not my favorite, but, you know. 'Tis the World Cup season."

"That it is," Gideon said, "But for an American I'd say I fared pretty well in my first major soccer exposure, other than worrying about getting killed by the soccer ball if Ronnie had gotten another kick in."

"All in a days work for an X-Man," Gideon smirked. "Haven't seen you in a while. Been buried in books recently, eh?"

"Finals are coming," she said by way of agreement. "As much as I enjoy it here, I am so ready for the stress of classes to be over."

"You and me both," Gideon said, "Hopefully the world cup will go smoothly, and I'll have time to study instead of being deployed to some new disaster."

"By saying those hopes out loud, you do realize that you just doomed yourself and the rest of us, no?" She grinned.

Gideon chuckled.

"Only if I'm dreaming and this has become a movie," Gideon said, "Though if I've just doomed us all then at least I'll have you here with me, Дорогая моя."

"No, it will be a slow doom. But rest assured that our odds of getting through the finals in peace are almost nonexistent. Not that they were very high to begin with. So, are you looking forward to what happens after the exams as much as I am?"

"Traveling across Europe? Meeting your parents?" Gideon asked, "Spending all that time alone with you?"

Gideon looked like he was deep in thought as he took a sip from his drink.

"Why would I be looking forward to that again?"

There was a slight stirring deep in Gideon's mind. A dark stirring.

"It sounds positively dull when you put it like that, Милая моя." She smirked, then put a hand on his leg. "But I will make it worth your while..."

Gideon felt the stirring and smiled.

"I'm sure you will," Gideon said, "And it will be a trip to remember. Especially after your father bites off one of my limbs."

"I will make him be nice. I guarantee that you have a 65 percent chance of getting back here without losing so much as a finger." She nudged him.

"65%, eh?" Gideon said, "Suppose I can't complain too much about those odds. Especially since I'll have lovely company in the hospital if things do go south, eh?"

She nodded cheerfully. "Maybe we can even get someone in Mutant Town to grow your limb back."

"Or we could ask our resident mad scientist to build me a new one," Gideon smiled, "Make it harder for him to bite it off the second time around, eh?"

Gideon paused for a moment to take a sip from his drink.

"I am really looking forward to our trip. A bit of time away from campus will be good for both of us."

"I'd never really done it either, until I went to Genosha," Gideon said, "Got easier after a while, but was nice getting to go home."
