Xander pulled his jacket closer, and reluctantly shuffled out the door. He didn't want to leave the building. He just knew that if he did, she would be there.
Marie. His latest dangerous, freaky female stalker. But she was a mutant, not a vampire, demon, mummy, or bug lady. Hopefully, it meant that she wouldn't be planning to kill him.
She was pretty, with dark hair, and gorgeous eyes, and a nice body, as much as he could tell with the way she always wore layers of clothing to cover every inch of her body. Skin contact activated her mutation. And she couldn't control it.
So why, he wondered, was she following him?
"Hey Xander." A soft voice, like honey.
"Marie." He smiled weakly.
"Some of us were headin' out for a movie, want to come along?" She was smiling at him, and there was something there…
"I…. suppose." The words pulled themselves out.
"Great!" She leaned in, giving him a quick hug, her hair brushing against his cheek, smelling like flowers. "It'll be fun."
"Yeah…" Xander wondered what in the world had possessed him. Then he saw her smile. She was so happy … He was officially a sap.
