Jeffery stepped in. "Anxious to get back to cla- ho s**t!" He jumped, recognizing Kat without the blood all across her face. "Ah, ahem, right. So.. yes."

Kat jumped back, properly startled by Jeffery's exclamation. She caught herself from going into a defensive stance, or attempting to hit him, which was another temptation. She let out a breath calming herself and slipping down from the nurse's table. "Well good."
"As a responsible teacher, you should probably walk me back to class." Kat said, heading to the door.
She glanced at Tidus, and gave him a small wave, not quite willing to thank him for the help that she'd insisted she hadn't needed.

Jeffery nodded, helping her up and out of the door. "Make sure to get to class, Tidus." He called to him.
"What the hell are you doing here? What the hell were you doing making out with one of my students? What the hell?" Jeffery said in a hushed voice as he walked down the empty hall with Kat.

"Assuming you're a teacher here, I made out with a good handful of your students." Kat said, also keeping her voice down a notch. "Believe what you want, but I'm trying to keep them safe.....kissing to gather information is technically the only fancy tool I have."
Kat turned her eyes to the hallway as they walked. "Before you bring up legal stuff, I'm not going to sleep with any of them...and when they try to cop a feel they get themselves batted on the ear. So what's with the 'holyshit!' reaction back in the nurse's office? Not expecting to see me any time soon?"

"I don't care what they do with who, I thought you were dead! All of you! I heard Roxanna's house blew up, I thought you all bit it. And then you show up in my school with a bloodied up head."

Kat stopped in her tracks. "Well, damn, hadn't thought much about that. I.." She paused, and started walking again to keep from blocking the hallway. "Roxy said you wanted to stick with a normal life, I didn't think to contact you, and I sort of assumed you'd have just known, I guess."

"You guys died! Or at least, the house did! That's big stuff!" He waved his hands before catching himself, not entirely sure why he was freaking out either. "I assumed you all had died, and then you show up here in the school? What are you after?"

Kat reached up and gave him a quick snap on the forehead with a pencil. "Quit drawing so much attention. And yes, it is big stuff, but we didn't die. I'd rather you be freaking out over the fact that we did die rather than the fact we didn't in the first place. It's less mean." She stuck the pencil behind her ear and continued to walk. "I'm after information. I need to know who is developing what abilities in hopes that I can keep them from harm. Your football player, Sam, is one of those we need to keep an eye for. They've already tried to make a grab for him."

"Sam? The football player? But he was here at school today? I haven't heard anything about that." He shrugged. "So what have you learned then? Is Roxanna alright?"

"He got lucky last night, things were botched by the team that was to get him, and the cops got involved enough for them to back off. He might not be so lucky next time." Kat gave him a nod, "Roxanna is fine, last I checked. She bailed on us last night. As for what I've learned.." Kat was about to say, then paused, giving Jeffery a careful look. She really wasn't sure if she could trust him. Or if it was him at all.

"Huh, well.." He paused, giving her a strange look. "What?"

Kat leaned forward to kiss him, but caught herself and pulled back. "It would probably not be a good idea to get you fired."
She leaned back on her heals. "Who the hell are you, Jeffery? I don't know anything about you, and technically I've been handing out a lot of trust based solely on the fact that you helped me out on the beach. I want to trust you, but it's not about just me any more, and I've got to be more cautious these days."

Ruby St.Claire Kat leaned forward to kiss him, but caught herself and pulled back. "It would probably not be a good idea to get you fired." She leaned back on her heals. "Who the hell are you, Jeffery? I don't know anything about you, and technically I've been handing out a lot of trust based solely on the fact that you helped me out on the beach. I want to trust you, but it's not about just me any more, and I've got to be more cautious these days." Jeffery made note not to comment on the missed kiss. "I'm a guy who was at the right place at the right time to save your life." He shrugged. "I don't know what you want, I'm not even sure what I'm supposed to do." He shrugged again, waiting with her.

Kat let out a soft sigh, "It's not about what I want, or what you're supposed to do, Jeffery. I don't sign up people who don't want to help out."
She paused, glancing back at him, "if you do want to help out, then you'll have to kiss me, and give me a bit of something to trust."

She paused, glancing back at him, "if you do want to help out, then you'll have to kiss me, and give me a bit of something to trust." Before she left, Rook had insisted on her using some of her gains from the previous evening to get them each a cheap cell phone so they could keep in contact without copious uses of her kiss power... And that phone vibrated insistently in her pocket, Rook having sent her a message.
