Emma hurried ahead of Luke, then stood just inside the Entrance Hall, waiting for him to come storming by. She sat on a bench just inside, looking over some notes for class tomorrow. Well, pretending to look them over. If she could get Luke on her side, get him to open up to her...use her powers on him...she could have Dream gone in a flash, and win some bonus points with her daughter.

Rogue was passing down the hallway, but stopped short when she saw Emma. Something was wrong here. She ducked behind a doorway and watched...

Luke marched up to the school's entrance and stepped inside. He waited a moment for his eyes to adjust to the dark interior, then proceeded down the hall. His recent experience echoing in his head. What had he done to make Dream so tetchy? He growled under his breath, oblivious to Emma Frost, sitting nearby.

"Luke..." she said softly, touching his shoulder. "Are you alright? You look so distraught." Her face showed genuine concern, lush lips gently parted. For being almost-middle aged, she sure hadn't lost her looks.

Luke started at the touch. "Oh, hi, Professor Frost." He composed himself, trying to forget about his conversation with Dream. "She's just having a bad day, I guess." So much for forgetting. "I didn't mean to hurt her feelings. I'm not used to this. Being humane to people. The last several years, I've had to hide from them and fight them. Being nice is... weird." He thought about Jack. He couldn't help but pick on him, even though he really hated that he was hurting him. I really need help. He thought.

"I understand, sit," she patted the bench next to her. "if you haven't noticed people have a bad taste in their mouth about me. I was treated poorly for such a very long time, and then in response, I treated others poorly. It was a cycle I could accept, and the one day, I realize that I had to grow up, come into my own. And I started treating people how they deserved to be treated. Unfrotunately, some people knew me before and don't think I can do this. But I can." she laid a hand on his shoulder reassuringly. "I'm sure you can, too. You can be kind to those who you care about. Making good decisions and not hurt others...help them...tell them how you feel. And when you do this, they will, in time come around and believe you. I'm just waiting for my daughters to let their gaurd down..." Emma smiled.

Luke nodded. "You're right." He stood up and went toward the dorms. He'd let Dream calm down before he approached her again. All he wanted right now was to be alone, to think...
