@CeruleanSpeed « pass up a chance to prove once and for all she was the faster speedster...for about half their race, anyways.

Taking off as soon as she said the word, Reina dashed down the street, »
@CeruleanSpeed « her already, but she wasn't having any of that, cracking her neck slightly before turning to face in front of them, a smirk on her lips. Pietro was the /only/ person she could race and have a real /challenge/ with, and she wasn't about to »

@CeruleanSpeed Challenges were Reina's specialty. She liked to prove people wrong, and because she was so small, people often underestimated her abilities. It was /hilarious/ to watch the look on their faces when she started to show off, and whether Pietro »
@CeruleanSpeed « /him/ that.
"Please, you tell me to kiss you and you'll end with a race on your hands. Only get one if you catch me."
Knowing that he would take it as a challenge, the redhead just /grinned/ up at him, giving his hip a small squeeze. She »
@CeruleanSpeed « it would only feed his ego, as well as make him think she would do whatever she wanted him to do just because she was infatuated with him. Still, his next hypothetical orders were something she wouldn't mind, but she wasn't going to tell »

@CeruleanSpeed If there was one thing Reina was, it was proud. She only listened to a few people, and those people included her three brothers, Logan, and /occasionally/ Ororo. She loved her brothers, and she adored Logan, and denying Ororo's orders always »

@CeruleanSpeed « true for him, it was still slightly annoying, and at that coment, she actually rolled her eyes, smirking at his hand squeeze. It was a small action, and exceptionally innocent for the pair, but it was enough to cause her heart to jump some. »

Unfortunately, the fact that his ego kept up with hers meant that his /comments/ kept up with hers. She was never able to have the upper hand for more than a few seconds, and while the same was »
