Her eyes widened from the kiss, surprised by it. Here she was, standing in front of Blackout, a girl she had barely spoken to before, and was receiving a spontaneous kiss out of no where. There was no warning at all. She didn't even recognize that she had frozen time until seconds had passed with Blackout not moving. Blushing, she started time up again and allowed Blackout to pull away. Surprised, blue-gray eyes looked into Blackout's eyes, unable to concentrate at first. This was her second kiss since coming to the school; Her second kiss since she was a pre-teen. It was something she still wasn't used to.<br/><br/><strong>"I, uh... I don't know if I'd ever be comfortable enough to walk around naked. I'm not even sure how I managed to get changed in front of you. I totally blanked for some reason," </strong>she replied, not sure what else to say. She couldn't help but feel like this was a dream. Was this whole school just a dream? No, it couldn't be. She had already had repeating days, like she did out in the real world. It couldn't be possible, could it?<br/><br/><strong>"Is this real? Like... Is this school real? Cause I'm starting to feel like maybe I'm dead and in heaven or something,"</strong>she admitted. It was hard to believe that there was a place like this in the real world. How was it that someone like Charles Xavier existed and brought all these mutants from different parts of the world together in a big mansion? And how was it that she, who hadn't had a single friend in years, was making friends so easily and even having the potential for a relationship? It was all so amazing. And while some people believed this to be something of a prison, Tessa couldn't help but feel like this was the best thing to have happened to her in her entire life. It was a dream come true.<br/><br/><strong>"I just... All of this... I can't wrap my head around how all of this is real. When you go from being punished for having powers to being accepted like this... It's so much to take in. I don't know what to believe." </strong>She couldn't help but question if all of this was truly happening.<strong>"What... What were things like out there for you? Where did you call home? Did you have friends?</strong>"
