You sighed looking through your window at the bright sunny day outside. All around the mansion, the young mutants were enjoying the day off they had, playing, reading, laying under a tree and appreciating each other’s companies. You loved to watch other people.
As a child you were never really allowed out of your house, mostly because your parents were ashamed of you being a mutant. And you couldn’t really hide it because your skin had a really unnatural color. It was like the Universe wasn’t cruel enough to only make you a mutant. It had to make you a walking freak. At least that’s what your parents made you feel about yourself. So you were content with only watching people from afar.
You were so caught up watching Jean and Kurt chat happily that you didn’t notice someone approaching you. Sneakly, said person made their way to your back, finally grabbing your sides and almost giving you a heart attack.
“HOLY SHIT, ORORO!” you yelped, smacking the laughing mutant in the arm “T-That’s not funny!”
“It actually is, beautiful...” you blushed at the nickname she often used to refer to you, especially because it sounded so nice with her accent that she could get anything she wanted from you just by asking like that.
You and Ororo had a complicated relationship.
You’ve had a crush on the mutant for a while. Something to do with the way she was such a badass and had actually saved you from your shitty family. You weren’t used to have friends and people close to you so most of the times your insecurity had the best of you, but Ororo almost made you feel beautiful in a way that you never tought it was possible. Almost. The first time she learned that you hated your appareance, she made sure that it was crystal clear to you how beautiful she found you to be. And after that, she just kept reminding you all the time even thought you still couldn’t make yourself believe in her.
In a weird impulse you pecked her sweetly on the lips when she walked you to your room after a training session. You remember widening your eyes in despair at the thought that she would probably feel repulsed by you, that you’d lose her friendship that you fought so hard to keep, especially because Ororo was so damn popular now with everyone in the Mansion and you barely could compete in friendship terms with anyone let alone in any other way. And now you had ruined everything becau-
Your rambling thoughts stopped when she pressed a gentle kiss against your lips before smiling and walking away, leaving a dumbfolded you at the door.
And you never spoke about it.
And it just kept happening.
On the beginning you felt really awkward near her. You couldn’t act normally, especially after Jean sent you a knowing smirk during lunch when Ororo sat next to you and actually called you “beautiful” in front of everyone else.
But after some time things started to become natural.
And those small pecks and kisses kept happening but were never mentioned as your friendship remained.
But you wanted to talk about it.
But you couldn’t. Because what if she stopped? What if she thought that you wanted something serious with her when she was only having some fun or some kind of distraction?
No, you didn’t want to ruin this.
“You still there?” she waved her hands in front of your face, making you come back to reality “Good. Thought I had lost you for a moment...”
You laughed slightly, looking outside again as Ororo settled by yourside, also staring at the others.
“You shouldn’t barge into someone’s room like this...” you said playfully, nudging her with your shoulder “It’s not polite!”
“The door was opened...” she replied, arching one eyebrow while her dark eyes rested on your face again “What were you thinking?”
“By... leaving my door opened?” you answered slowly, your brows furrowing when she laughed.
“No, silly. Before I came in. You were really focused...”
“Oh...” you blushed “In my defence your question came out of nowhere...”
She shruged, still waiting for you to tell her whatever was on your mind. Ororo loved listening to you talk about all your thoughts. You were fascinating for her.
“Well... I was just watching the others enjoying their evening. It’s bright and warm outside. I like seeing them do their stuff...” you laughed as a boy tripped and feel while playing futball with another “I don’t know... I think it’s just an habit that I have. Watching people and all since I didn’t really managed to make friends back when I was a kid...”
“Why not?” she asked innocently, making you bit the inside of your cheek. It was a delicate matter for you, but it was Ororo, so you didn’t mind sharing.
“Because of this...” you gestured to your hole body and she knew you meant your appearence “My parents didn’t let me out of the house...and the few times I ran away people just stared at me like I was some kind of freak... so I always ended coming back. And then my parents would just lock me away again. So you can guess what I became. Zero social skills plus weird ass looking thing... I was a disaster when trying to make friends with anyone...”
You saw Ororo’s hand clench in anger as she remembered your parents. Your hands went to her fisted ones comforting, showing her that you didn’t care about them anymore. She knew you didn’t. But she also knew you still thought of yourself as a freak and that’s what she hated the most. The fact that they made you believe you were weird and ugly when actually for her you were the most beautiful creature she have ever seen.
“I think that’s mainly the reason even here at the mansion I can’t make many friends...” you whispered, her hands lacing your fingers together, making a huge blush spread on your face, because it was the first time that happened and also the first time you shared this part of your feelings with anyone. But with Ororo it felt right “I was locked during most of my childhood. I never experienced so many things that people like to talk about... simple things, but most of them so important... things you go through when you’re a child. Even made a list in the end...”
“Well... I never fel off a tree. Hell actually I never even climbed a tree to beggin with. I never played outside with friends until dark. Never slept over in a friends house. Don’t have a childhood friend to share stories with or from. I never ate a bug, played with my mom’s make up or got scolded for playing outside in the rain... I never even did feel the rain...” you heard Ororo gasp at your last sentence, laughing at her reaction.
You stayed the hole afternoon in your room with her, talking about the past. You knew she didn’t had an easy childhood either and was actually really gratefull when she shared it with you. Then you started to talk about things you wanted to do and you told her about your other list of things that you wanted to do before dying.
Finally when it was already pitch dark outside and everyone was already on their rooms probably sleeping early for the classes tomorrow she smiled mischievously at you.
Motioning for you to stay silent, she grabbed your hand after closing your window and pulling you outside, towards the hallways. Silently you followed her, wondering what the hell she was ploting. You sneaked through a window to the backyard and walked a little bit until the trees hid you from sight of anyone in the Mansion.
“What the hell are we doing?” you asked, making her laugh.
“I can’t do much about your childhood, but I think at least I can give you one of the experiences that you said you never had. Except for climbing a tree, really, because that you can do on your own. And maybe you can take something off of your other list...” she still had a smirk plastered to her lips as her eyes turned white, signallying that she was using her powers.
You watched her breathlessly for the first time so up close while she opened her arms wide, looking towards the star filled sky. She was so mesmerizing that you wanted to burn that image in the back of your mind for when she finally got tired of hanging with you. Because who were you fooling. Ororo could have anyone she wanted at her feet and yet she stick to you. It was only a matter of time.
The thoughts left your mind when you felt the first cold drop hit your shoulder. It felt really good against your warm skin. You looked up, finding the sky now completely clouded as more droplets fell into you. The rain increased but you were completely marveled at the sensation of the cool water hiting your skin. Soon you were totally drenched, but still couldn’t care any less.
You wondered how that would have felt to little Y/N. How would have you felt as a little girl, seeing the rain for the first time. Playing on the rain with the friends you always dreamed to have?
I would have been so happy...
The thought brought small tears to your eyes, but you swallowed the urge to cry, looking at Ororo again. Her short white hair was now sticking to her face and she watched you tilting her head to the side lightly. Her eyes were back to the natural dark brown you loved so much and her skin glistened completely wet.
And before you could decide against it your body moved on it’s on accord, your arms resting around her shoulders as you pulled her, whispering a small “thank you” and hugging her tightly. Immediately her arms circled your waist, sticking your bodies even closer together, her breath warm against your now cold skin. You buried your head on her neck, feeling the smell of her skin mixing with the smell of wet earth.
“I mean it...” you whispered, still clinging into her, her arms making no movement to let you go either “Thank you...”
"I really want to answer you properly but...” her thick accent sent shivers down your spine and when her arms tightned on your waist you knew she felt it too “I can’t think straight with you so close.”
You had no idea who moved first, you just knew that as soon as she finished speaking you were kissing. A proper kiss this time. Not a sweet peck or a light kiss like you used to. A kiss that rendered you breathless really quick. The taste of Ororo’s lips mixed with the taste of the rain sneaking between your bodies. She bit into your lower lip while you allowed one of your hands to travel to the small of her back, the other tightly secure on her white strands of hair. You whimpered against her when she gave your waist a firm squeeze while her tongue swirled around with yours inside your mouth.
Ororo broke the kiss with slow and tempting pecks, brushing her lips slowly through your jaw, stopping right were it met your ear and leaving a small bite there, making you shiver against her body. It took all of her self control to not hungrily start kissing you again.
She hold into you until both of your breaths calmed, humming content in your shoulder, rocking your bodies from side to side slowly, as if you were dancing to a tune that only played in her head.
You finally broke the silence.
“Dancing in the rain?” she smiled at your statement.
“Well, we just kissed in the rain...” Ororo pulled away a bit so that you were now staring at each other.
“Yeah... I guess I can cross that from my to do list!” you seemed really excited about doing so, missing the glance of pure adoration in Ororo’s eyes “Awn, look at us! We’re basically a couple already!”
As soon as the words left your mouth you regretted it, pushing away from her and slapping your hands against your mouth.
Stupid mouth, stupid mouth, stupid mouth. You cursed in your head, thinking that now you had really messed things up because the other mutant never said anything about wanting something to do with you.
“What’s wrong?” she asked, not understanding why you looked like you were about to cry when you were so happy just a moment ago. She made the rain turn into a simple drizzle so she could hear you better.
“I-I’m sorry...” you said but even though she could her you perfectly, Ororo approached you again, without touching you “I-I know you probably don’t want anything with me... I just g-got caught in the excitement of the moment... I’m really sorry, that was not what I wanted to say... I-”
“Hey, beautiful, calm down. Who said I don’t want anything with you?” you looked at her stunned for a moment.
“B-But I’m... I’m... just me... and you...”
“I’m just me.” she repeated your words with so much confidence that almost felt like she was saying something completely different “Do you think I’d be around you this much if I didn’t want anything? Or that I would do all of this just for the sake of a friend? You are the best thing that happened to me, Y/N. Hey, don’t look down like this...” her fingers went to your chin as you had looked embarassed towards your feet. How could you be anything like what she was saying? She lifted your face “I know how you feel... I know that your family fucked you up. But believe me when I tell you that you are the most beautiful person I have ever met. Both, inside and outside...”
“Shh...” she kissed you again and you could feel a smile back in her lips even with your eyes closed “I think in the end you can cross something else from your list too...”
“I might or might not have read the list while you went to the bathroom...”
You whacked her head but smiled back when she laughed, the sound making your heart flutter in your chest and the small droplets of gentle water cooled down the warmth from your cheeks.
