"Some Assembly Required" by manic_intent | Charles/Erik | Alex and Hank are two teenagers who frequently fight in school. One fight gets so bad that the principal calls in their fathers for a conference. This was how Charles and Erik meet. | ~15.000

Hank might be far too smart for school, Alex realized, with a sense of awe, but Erik was devious the way only a total asshole could be devious. Sure enough, after an endless moment of dread, Erik abruptly tilted his head to the side, his eyes a little unfocused, as though listening to a voice that nobody could hear. At Alex's look of growing horror, however, Erik merely smirked, rooting in his pockets and tossing him a coin, before sauntering off, looking for all the world like a cat that had not only gotten the cream, the milk and the canary but had ripped the poor little singing fuck to shreds over a priceless carpet.

HILARIOUS! Oh my God, it's so, so hilarious.
