She surged when he said that it could be nothing Stella always jumped to conclusions be for all the logic was laid out in front so maybe nothing would happen and he’d be fine in the end.
She lessen as he spoke on what he felt about mutants Stella hoped it was true and he wasn’t just trying to be nice he heart jumped when he asked if she was one, that wasn’t something people just asked out of the blue and when you where one it normally involved you know spending the night on the street or getting kicked out of the restrant
Stella stood up and took a couple steps back, he figured it out he knew she was a mutant now, it was just the natural reaction when someone you didn’t know for sure was a mutant to act scared Stella had hurt so many people if Ian wanted to she could get arrested and she was under the ligule age to be living on her own. Even if he thought he might be one and talking about mutants made him comfortable.
“Ian I don’t want you afraid of me, I am I can make thinks implode by knowing what it looks like so a window, flashlight I did that with out thinking, when I really think I can destroy larger more completed things a moving car, a person, a hole building ”
She stepped a few more steps away form him scared that he might go back on his word when he realized how powerful she really was and how little control she had. She didn’t want this feeling to get in the way of being with him and wanting to be his friend, but how could he be so sure on his feelings for mutants when he didn’t even know him self.

He sighed a little as the silence fell over them. He wondered then what exactly he was running from or why he would be so scared of something. When she stood up and started backing away, he stood up and looked to her with worried eyes.
"What? What did I say wrong? If I upset you at all I'm sorry."
Then she started talking about her powers and he was stunned. He tried to picture her walking by something and blowing it up. It absently made him think of the movie Carrie, which brought a smile to his face. He had met a that has the power to blow things up?
"So you can blow stuff up? That is so cool!"
He didn't know why he didn't put things together earlier. He knew she was angry, but didn't know that it meant that her blowing up windows fit in until now. He wasn't even sure about mutants until she brought up the topic. Now he was standing in a room with a who literally had e powers.
"So you can blow stuff up when ever you get angry? Man, remind me not to get on your bad side."

“I lose control when im angery I don’t have to be angry to actually to implode something, and tecnally imploding is different then blowing something up but it doesn’t really matter unless you had a slow motion camera they look the same”
When he smiled she was confused she just told him that she could hurt him if not kill him just by thinking about it and he was smiling as sweet as it was that he didn’t care it wasn’t she gave him an odd look he was nut to really think that was cool
“why are you smiling at me”
She was confused with this guy she hoped that he was a mutant either that or he needed to be checked into a mental hospital for being insane enoth to think that a girl who if she was in the right mood could lose control and pop goes his head.
“I don’t want to hurt you, I don’t want t get anger at you again your nice and not bad looking and different form anyone I’ve meet before I like it when you smile and… ”
Stella eyes widen when she realized what she had just said she didn’t mean for it all to come out like that but now the cat was out of the bag. O man he’d probably think she was a freak now for liking a guy who didn’t even no if he had been in a reaslionship before or anything like that.

"I just think it's cool that you have powers. I wonder what kind of powers I would have if I was a mutant."
He continued to smile at her, even after she seemed worried about why. When she started talking again, telling about her feelings towards him, he couldn't help but smile at that. He couldn't remember the last time he was told something like that, but if she was right about yesterday it must've been a long time. He walked up to her, deciding to throw caution into the wind and kissed her cheek.
"I...think you're cute to, Stella, and you have a great smile."
He didn't know why he just suddenly walked up to her and kissed her that way, he just figured it was a good way to show her he didn't mind her saying those things about him. After all, if he had somebody that he could remember, a friend or the like, then they would've tried to find him by now right? The rain continued to come down outside, and the sheet was getting wet. Thankfully it was big enough to still cover the window and keep the cold air out.

If Stella was blushing before it would of seemed small compared to now he checks where full with color, his lips had been on her check for a small moment but still his lips had touched her. She didn’t mean for all the things to come out of her mouth right then like that but it didn’t seem he cared and if he did he wasn’t showing it to her.
A small shy smile creep on to her lips she was silent as the wind blew standing next to him for a moment taking in the silence. He said she was cute, and she had a great smile now she really wanted to change into something more attractive this beat up clothes weren’t cutting it, she couldn’t change in front of him and she didn’t want to kick him out just so she could change into a different top and take off the old coat. She figured that even if she wanted to look better for him right then it be a little awkward if all of the sudden she asked him to leave so she could change into something more comfortable she she’d have to bare with the old beat up clothes for now.
“….so what do you want to do now”
It was the only think that could come out of her mouth she was lost on what to say or to things where happening fast not that she mind it, infact it was hard to believe that she hated in not long ago now she wanted them to be more then friends. But they couldn’t just stand there in silence and not do anything.

"I dunno, I just feel like smiling I guess."
He honestly didn't know why he was smiling, whether it was just a feeling or something else. The silence that came between them was a bit uncomfortable, so he was glad to hear her break the silence by asking. He just shrugged and moved to the makeshift window, pushing the soaked sheet aside to look out.
"Look's like the rain is letting up though, maybe we can go outside and look around."
The pouring rain had died down to only a small drizzle, and even that was starting to come to it's end. He moved the sheet back and walked over to her, gathering up his things as he did. He didn't know where they would go next, he just wanted to get out of the building that seemed to almost want to crumble down around them.
"Have you ever been around Italy?"
He knew it was a stupid question to ask, but he wasn't sure if she'd been in Italy before, even though he did meet her here. Maybe she was running away like he was or was with her own family. He wouldn't mind her company either way, just to know someone was with him.

When he mentioned the rain letting up slightly she smiled not that there was any reason to really smile he was just easy to smile around , she smiled the idea of walking around seemed much better then being up stuck in side all day.
“Nope never been I’m hear by mistake really snuck on the wrong boat hoping for a free ride somewhere in the states and ended up hear been living off the things in my pack tell I can find a free way back to the states really just to pick up my the rest of my things and then take off again”
She was about to take off with him right then but then she looked back down at her out fit she wasn’t going out in public in this there was no way
“O.k but if we go out im changing I’m still in pj’s…you might want to see if you can get some of that crap off your skin if you can” she grabbed her bag and moved to the next room quickly changed took her big coat off stuffed it in to her bag changed in to a a bright green top with a strange design on it. Some legging that where the same blue as her hair with green poka dots and a sort black skirt. she didn’t relize this but she had put Ians jacket on in the rush, Why she was in there also pulled out a map and an umbrella form her bag and then ran back in to the room with Ian in it.
“Okay so we are in Rome right now the capital of Italy the rain will scare most the tourist away but that’s fine means less crowds for us to fight so anything you have in mind we can go see the Arco Di Constantino, the Pantheon, the La …Bocca dell….Ha English ok the…The Mouth of truth, The Spanish steps, St. peter’s Basilica, San Clemennte, the Trevi Fountain.”
She smiled up at him, she was in one of the most romantic cities in the world with I guy she liked it was like some cheesy chick flick where they just happened to meet something that only really happens in movies with out anything going wrong.
He might of noticed that she only listed the free things to do in the city not anything that cost them money even if he had a bank card who knew how much was on it unless they went to go check so doing free things was the safest bet as far as she saw size there where a lot of free things to do.

"Really? Well if you want we can find a way to get back to the states. It could be an adventure."
He smiled, the thought of going on an adventure seemed to sound fun to him, even if it meant going back to where he figured he ran away from. He looked at her when she said she was in her pj's and was thankful the stuff of his face hid the slight red on his cheeks. He felt embarrassed that he was dirty and didn't pay it no mind until she pointed it out to him. He looked around but couldn't find anything to clean himself off. He finally chose the sheet that was soaked from the rain and began to clean off the dirt that was on him.
"Sounds great, I think we should do the mouth of truth first. Who knows, maybe it'll show me something that I'd forgotten, like why exactly I'm here instead of New York."
He knew it was probably just a building with a name, but he couldn't help but wonder if it would help him see something he may be missing. Besides, the name itself sounded cool, and when he caught her smiling at him again, he looked to her and smiled back.

Stella smiled at Ian when he offered to help her find away back to the states, an adventure, it would be sneaking onto a boat wasn’t easy if they went by boat, plane was impossible for her. So finding a way to get to the states would be an adventure in its self with out getting caught. “Life is always an adventure you just have to find it, I’d love to find a way back to the states with you sometimes but that’s sometime latter now we are going to see the sights” She grab his hand, took him to down stairs as soon as they where outside she opened the umbrella so they wouldn’t get wet on the way to the mouth of truth, the walk there wasn’t long at all once they where under the small little roof that protected the statue form the rain Stella let go of Ians hand and closed the umbrella. Once they where there Steela picked up a borsure that was in English and started reading threw it, there wasn’t much that stood out to her it was a stature of some river made of some marble the only thing that really caught her was why it was called the Mouth of Truth. “they say if you put your hand in its mouth it will bit it off if you lie with your hand in it” Considering that she had called him a liar and yelled at him all morning this would of not been her first place is to take him to a graint statue that was a suppose to be a lie detector Stella gave a wicked grin to him “you want to put your hand in there” Stella didn’t believe that an old statue could really bite someone’s hand off if they where a lier I broke so many logical rule the hole was small enough someone could get there hand stuck in for a bit if they had large enough hands but besides that stone couldn’t bite someone’s hand off Hears a link to what the mouth of truth looks like www.italyguides.it/us/roma/rome/aventine/santa_maria_in_cosmedin/the_mouth_of_truth/bocca_della_verita.htm |

"That's true, but I don't know if I've had much adventure."
He didn't even know if he was the adventuring type, but going out exploring seemed like something fun to do. When she took his hand he felt a little nervous, but walking with her was a nice experience. They approached the mouth of truth which didn't seem like much to him. He looked over and read the brochure with her, giving the statue an odd look when it read that it would take someone's hand off.
"Um, no thanks, I don't think I really should."
He rubbed his hand absently while looking at the statue. Though it didn't look like much, he didn't really like the idea of possibly losing his hand. He looked over the brochure and tried to figure out a different spot.
"Let's go to the Spanish Steps next. Wait, what are Spanish steps doing in Italy?"
Though he wasn't very good on memory, he was very sure that Spain wasn't close to Italy, in fact he was positive it wasn't on the same continent as Italy in the first place, was it?

When Ian said that he wouldn’t put his hand in she shrugged it off, he was scared it would work that the Romans had actually made something that would hurt someone if you lied when you put your hand in or if you hole life was a lie. She didn’t understand why he be worried it wasn’t like she was asking for him to lie and put his hand in.
Stella waked up to the statue, she looked threw its mouth stuck her hand threw and shot it back out again stared that it might really bite her hand off if she lied with it in there. But her hand was safe for now and that’s was really important no point to go to the ER when there was more to do.
Stella thought it was cute that Ian wouldn’t put his hand in the statue, only reason she did was she was to curiosis for her own good and wanted to know how everything worked. When he said the Spanish steps would be a good spot next she smiled took his hand and opened her umbrella and walked with him to the Spanish steps she gave a small little laugh when he asked why they where called the “Spanish” steps when they where in Italy, she had do idea why it was called that to be honest infact the name did seem odd.
“I don’t know, guess where going to find out aren’t we”
She grabed his hand again and they walked to the Spanish Steps once there Stella found a plack that explained the history of the steeps, what they where made out of that there where 138 steeps tell you got to the building on top witch was called the Trinita Dei Monti and where they where now was called the Piazza Di Spagna, it was made by some French guy and the reason they got there lovely name from the Spanish Embassy cause there was something called the Holy See in the Piazza it was contected to and the Spanish owned the Holy see or something like that.
Stella was not to impressed at all, She’d seen to many romantic comedies set in Rome these steps was the classic seen where the two ‘lovers’ hold hands and run up the stairs she never found that romantics to begin with and now seeing the steps she wondered how in the world they where even on the map she tried to hide hear feeling by giving a small smile as she looked at Ian when she was done reading
“Spanish steps made by the French set in Italy go figure”

He watched as Stella made an attempt to put her hand in, and even drew a breath when it actually went inside. He was more then a little relieved when she immediately drew it back out. He tried to hide it though and when she turned to him and suggested that they were going to find out about the steps, he was more then willing to take the walk.
He read the plaque with her and couldn't help but wonder about the steps. When she looked to him and smiled, commenting about the three different ethnic groups all tied into one area, he couldn't help but laugh a little bit.
"Yeah, now that's confusing."
He stared up at the steps and his legs began to tense up as he continued. Something about these steps made him want to take off up them. Without him even stopping himself, he did. He ran up the hundred and thirty eight steps all the way to the top, then ran back down to stand next to Stella once more. The odd thing was, he wasn't out of breath at all, he felt like he only ran two steps.
"Wow, I just ran those steps and I'm not even tired. That's weird huh?"

She smiled at him when he said that it was confusing really the word was lame that she was thinking about but he seemed to like the steeps more then the statue for earlier maybe because the steeps didn’t have and ‘If you run up these steps your feet well never feel again if you think about sin why running on them’, they where just steps.
When he took off running up the steeps Stella stood and watched he was fast not supper fast like maybe he did track or something before so there was no way Stella could catch up.
When he came back and said he wasn’t even tired Stella gave him an odd look how couldn’t he be he just ran up over a hundred steeps and he didn’t even break a sweet, looking at him he wasn’t that fit most anyone who ran would feel something and Stella and him and been walking around for the past little bit.
“Your not even sweating or sound tired Ian, do you think that’s the fastest you can run, when people run fast they always are tired that’s strange” She was smiling at him the hole time that was a 138 steeps and he didn’t look tired at all like it was an everyday thing

"I don't know if that's the fastest I could run, I've never really tried. I wonder how many laps I could do on these steps."
He was extremely excited about the fact that he wasn't sweat, so he turned and ran up the steps once more, running back down. Each lap up and down the steps he went faster and faster until finally he just looked like a blur running laps along the stairs. A few more minutes and he was actually beginning to kick up some wind, causing a minor twister.
From his own point of vision, he began to see things a lot slower. To him he was just running normally, but people began to slow down more and more until it looked like they were frozen in time. He finally decided it was time to stop, and when he was making one more pass, he stopped right next to Stella. The people began moving again and the dust that he had kicked up began to settle back down onto the ground.
"That was fun! I felt I could've ran over a hundred laps on those steps. It was like everybody was frozen in time while I was running though." he looked at the steps, seeing a few people looking at him. His cheeks began to redden slightly, "Um...maybe that wasn't a good idea."

She watched as Ian ran up and down the stairs at first she thought that he’s quit soon he’d have to sit down witch was o.k with her they could sit the see had enough on her to by a small something for them to eat; but he kept going faster and faster speeds that where humanly impossible She tought about telling him to stop before to many people noticed but she wanted to see him go faster and faster even to the point where there was no way she could catch a glimpse of him.
As soon as he stopped Stella right next to her she blinked a few times he didn’t slow down or anything he just stopped right next to her he could of run into her, she looked around and saw a few people stopping and pointing at the two the rain had let up enough they went all alone anymore tourist where coming out to see the sights.
Stella grabbed his hand and started walking away form the steeps like nothing had happened, he was a mutant there was no doubt about that know no wonder he wasn’t afraid of her when he found out about her he was a bloody mutant him self.
“Why don’t we go somewhere where there a little less people Ian”
She wasn’t rude as she said it, the words came more out as lets get the hell out of hear before we get in trouble. Stella had been the center of attsion so many times using her power or not but for Ian this would be the first time as far as he knew and the world hated people like them so not knowing how to act wouldn’t be helpful.
She turned in to an small little ally and looked at him up and down for a second like she was trying to diside what to do she wasn’t angry at him he didn’t know and he even taught maybe he might be one asking about if a mutant can forget they are one and that type of stuff, she wasn’t happy either what ever had happen to make him forget he had really forgot everything and who was to say he wouldn’t forget when he woke up tomorrow and they’d have to start all over again from square one.
“well now we know a bit more about you a mutant there’s no way a normal man can run that fast”
Stella looked at him a bit more she still thought he was good looking and he was nice too she liked the way he blushed and he was well toned and a mutant she gave him a small smile and held his hand a bit she blushed at bit but looked at him in the eyes.
“Ian I want to help you find out who you really are at less the parts that you want to find out if ....someone was after you I don’t want them to find you again”
