New Kid At The Door
Wesley Graham hesitated and stopped at the gates of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. For as long as he could remember Wes had stuck to shadow. He used back entrances, he used the winds to lift himself up to second story windows and sneak in. He hadn't used the front door in a very long time. He was certain that they wouldn't open the door for him, that they wouldn't let him in. He was an assassin, a murderer. He may not have killed by his hand but it didn't matter. He was a killer and he was sure that there was a telepath inside who would figure that out and turn him away. He hoped that it wouldn't turn out that way but he didn't have a lot of hope. Wes was not good people any way you twisted it. He didn't deserve the redemption that he was looking for. That didn't stop him from calling the winds to carry him over the gates. He rang the doorbell and he waited.

	Wes looked at Lucas. He thanked him with an almost imperceptible nod and stepped inside. "I'm Wes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lucas gestures to the couches and such in the main area. "Due to recent events, things are a little chaotic around here, but one of the administrators will be free soon, I'm sure. Meanwhile, anything I can answer for you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Nothing an administrator couldn't answer," Wes said. He had been taught to always keep everything close to the vest. He would keep to that until he knew the people here better, although Wes doubted that he would ever be fully open with them. It wasn't in his nature. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lucas nods, sincere enough. "Makes sense. Dr. McCoy will be free shortly. If there's anything we can help with, meanwhile, let me know though. You hungry?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Wes was a little bit hungry, but that was not something that he was going to admit right then. "Could I get a glass of ice water?" he asked. Lucas had offered him something, it wouldn't be good manners to refuse. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Of course." he replies, heading into the kitchen and reporting their guest through the intercoms along the way. He returns with the water and a plate of cookies, setting them out on the main coffee table, not necessarily for the guest, but every indication is he's welcome to try them before others show up. "Dr. McCoy should be free in about fifteen minutes." (Reply to this)(Parent)
