Raven let out a breath when she heard Erik's voice behind her. She straightened her spine and turned to face him. Charles might have been holding out hope that he'd stay, but she wasn't. He left. At least, he left her. Except maybe the last time, she'd left him. Neither of them had really seen fit to find the other and another ten years had gone by. She'd kept a rough track of him and he... She wasn't sure whether he'd done the same for her. If he even could have. She'd made it deliberately hard for anybody to find her.
The question was whether she wanted him to stay. For Peter's sake? Yes. She did. For Charles' sake? It might be best that those two have it out and get past their issues. But she wasn't sure how to feel for her own sake.
She still loved him to save him from himself, but she wasn't sure she could trust him to want him for herself.
"Erik. Can't sleep?" Which was obvious, but what else could she say?
