Ray snickered to himself as he climbed over the fence, having just shorted the system out again in order to make a quick and quiet entrance. He ran across the lawn, and headed for the back door, that led into the kitchen. he jimmied the lock, and the door eased open without a sound. Ray withheld another smuig snicker. He was a little out of it, having spent the night partying with friends and going to a concert. He hadn't drank, heavens no! But smoke? yeah, a little...
Sam would kill him, but Ray had his reasons. He'd gotten a letter from home, and it hadn't made him a very happy camper. Everyone would just get over his deviancy like Ray had gotten over the stupid letter. At least he'd swigged Listerine and put eye drops in his eyes. No one could tell then after that.
Ray entered the kitchen, closing the door. he was still, sizing up the darkness, before finally making out the doorway and leaving through it. He made his way down the hall, and even got to the foyer. he paused again, wondeirng if the alarms were on. Then he hit himself on the head. He'd fried those already! He laughed quietly as he mounted the steps, tripping twice but catching himself. As he stumbled down towards his room, he tripped on his feet, and in his fall, knocked over a vase. The vase shattered on the ground, and Ray hit the floor pretty hard.
He was motionless, half-pickign himself up but freezing. He prayed no one had heard it, but it had been pretty loud...

Tabby was in the bathroom when she heard a crash. Wondering what was going on, she slowly opened the door and peaked out into the hallway. The light from the bathroom didn't provide much light and she couldn't see past where it ended.
Sighing, she stepped out into the hallways and headed in the direction of the sound. Tabby thought about creating a small bomb and tossing it down the hallway at random, but she didn't think causing more noise would be that wise; what if it was a burglar?
Boom Boom laughed slightly at that thought. Who in their right mind would try to break into mutant manor? No, it was most likely just one of the other students. She heard a noise behind and she turned, then tripped over something.
"Ow." She mumbled, rubbing her butt. Tabby squinted through the darkness. "Ray?"

"Careful, Tabs!" Ray whispered, voice wavering as he tried not to laugh; "I knocked over a vase, oops my bad!" then, he snickered, unable to contain himself. he tried to stay quiet, but it was hard.

Tabby glared up at him. "Yeah right." She whispered, rolling her eyes and sticking her arm out. "Mind helping me up? And what are you doing sneaking around the halls so late, anyway?"

Ray composed himself, getting up and helping Tabby up; "Ah hah, just relievin' stress, Tabs!" he drawled good-naturedly; "No reason to be so suspiscious! Not like I was doin' anything 'bad'," he embellished the last word, forming quotes with his fingers and rolling his eyes.
He needed to get a hold of himself quick, he figured.

Tabby crossed her arms in front of her chest and narrowed her eyes at him. Ray was acting really strange, which made her think he was probably high or something.
She sighed, looking at him dejectedly. "Are you gonna be ok?"

Ray waved her off, "Ah yeah," he said, "I'm peachy keen!" he added.
Straighten up, Crisp! he told himself, but intstead, he focused on trying to hide another uncontrollable chuckle.

"Sure you are." Tabby said, slightly amused; she studied him for a few minutes.
"So, where'd you go tonight?" She asked, leaning against the wall and staring at him.

"Ah, dude the most awesome concert!" Ray exclaimed, "It was a buncha local bands, and DUDE it was awesome! Then I went to a party," he added, chuckling before he could stop himself.

Tabby couldn't help but grin a little; she knew she shouldn't find it funny, but hell, it was funny. Shaking her head, she pushed off the wall and walked over to him.
"Oh really?" She questioned, linking arms with him and leading him toward his room; it probably wasn't the best idea to keep talking in the middle of the hallway where they could be caught at any moment.
"How was the party?" She questioned him as they reached his room. "I can already see you enjoyed yourself." Tabby rolled her eyes, opening his door and unlinking their arms.
"Well?" She asked, after she closed the door and took a seat on his couch.

"THank-you kindly, Miss Smith!" he said as she ushered him into his room, drawling out like Sam probably would have. He plopped down on his bed, rolling over on his stomach and tucking a pillow under his head and arms.
"The party was insane!" he explained; "It was an after party, I got in cuz I knew the bassist for one o' the bands. Anyway, There was all this stuff there: food, good music, booz, weed, and girls! Holy crap! But I didn't do a thing because I have Paige," he added firmly.

Tabby frowned. "You better not have done anything." She said, stretching out on the couch and staring up at the ceiling. "Because I'd probably have to kill you. And if I did that, then I'd be all alone and Paige would hate me. You wouldn't want that, would you, Ray?" She asked seriously, placing one of her arms behind her head while the other rested on her stomach.
"But I know you better than that." Tabby laughed lightly, turning her head to the side and looking over at him. "Hey, toss me a pillow, would ya?"

Ray nodded and tossed her a pillow, stretching out on his back as he sighed, a dreamy look on his face; "Nah, I don' wanna screw up what I got with her," he mused; "She's good for me, ya know? I'm so... chilled out whenever I'm around her. Plus, she'd awesome and adorable," he added, holding a finger up to prove a point before letting his hand fall.

Tabby grinned as she grabbed the pillow, laying her head on it and turning to lay on her side so that she faced him. "Aww, my little Ray's in looooove." She teased, before giving a slight yawn.
"How sweet." She smirked, watching him to see how he'd react.

Ray scrunched up his nose in confusing, rolling over to look at her; "Love?" he repeated; "Nah," he shook his head; "I'd know..." he sighed, lying down, face half-buried in the pillow as he stared at the floor; "I mean, she's cool, she's pretty, she's a lotta fun. But I just met her. I wouldn't let myself fall for anybody so fast..." then, he looked at Tabby; "Would I?" he asked quietly, as if she could answer him and it would make his confusion clear up.
