It was another late night for Kiden, or early morning if you prefer as she snuck her way out onto the grounds with a lit cigarette in between her lips. No matter how many times people told her it was bad for her, she didn't stop. Nor did she stop the drugs or the drinking. Thankfully, she hadn't used anything too hard for a while though she was aching for it with each passing day. She blew a puff of smoke out as she held the cigarette between her fingers, dragging her feet along the ground as she headed for the lake. It was too chilly for a swim so she was going to settle for simply sitting by it and observing the calmness that the water held.
Upon reaching it, she quickly dropped down in the grass, not worrying if she got stains on her already old and grungy pants. She did, however, need to invest in some new clothes as her hobo attire got more stares from the students than she was comfortable with. At the thought, she picked lightly at her pants, a frown tugging at her lips. She didn't enjoy being stared at like she had a big zit on her forehead but until new clothes were found, or stolen in her case, she'd deal. Tapping the end of the cigarette off into the water, Kiden tucked her legs under her slender frame and sucked in another drag of the toxic smoke, letting a soft sigh escape her full lips as the smoke rolled out into the cool night air.

Alex was beginning to hate the way that he was wired, he woke up early but he wasn’t someone that went to bed early either. Today was an example of this, but at the same time he was glad of it as it was meaning that he was meeting more and more of the people that lived in the house with him, he had only really met old xmen the first few days that he had been at the school. Jean primarily as he had sat around with Scott and talked before he had been introduced to his sister in law. However Alex hadn’t really hung around with the students simply because he was older than a lot of them being nearly 25 he wasn’t going to hang around with teenagers all day long.
Alex decided to walk out by the lake to try and tire himself out, he had done it a number times when he ha lived with his grandparents and ended up sleeping in the yard normally on their wooden decking, so sleeping outside wasn’t that big a thing to him. Walking out by the lake he could see that he wasn’t alone. Smiling at the girl who was out there he sat cross legged not far from her.
“Hey,” he said “I am Alex.”

The lake was beautiful indeed, definitely one of the perks that she had noticed since her arrival at the school. She wasn't use to scenery like this...Trees, lakes, green grass...She grew up in the city with skyscrapers and cement, nothing like where she was now. It was very much an improvement though and a lot easier on her ears. She didn't miss the sound of traffic at all and she certainly didn't miss life on the street except for the freedom it gave her. She was lost in her thoughts as she inhaled more smoke, the act being one of the things to calm her nerves and set her body and mind at ease with the world.
But when she heard the soft sound of footsteps coming near her, she turned slightly to catch sight of a man taking a seat not too far from her. She hadn't seen him around but that didn't mean much as she hadn't been there for very long. Hey, I'm Alex. He introduced himself which was a good start. The last thing she wanted was for someone to come prancing out to the lake to bug her and tell her to put her cigarette out or something. She smiled to him, flicking the end of her cigarette again. "Kiden," she repiled quickly before bringing the cigarette back to her lips and taking another long drag. "You don't mind, do you?" she questioned, hoping that the smoke wouldn't bother him too badly.

Alex noted that the girl didn’t seem too bothered by the fact that he was interrupting her time alone unlike what some of them may have been like, however Alex could see the that girl didn’t actually mind him joining her which was a nice difference to people not wanting company around the place to Alex was glad that he could have somewhere to sit and relax and not have people question why he was there.
“No feel free.” He said when she asked if he minded that she was smoking, “so, can’t sleep. Or just not one for sleeping early?”
