Chapter Text
Charles startles from his book, which he was reading to a class, as you swing open the main door, running through the halls and up the stairs.
Charles gapes for a few seconds before pulling himself together,
"uhm" he clears his throat "so well, Jubilee please read from the second passage" trying to quickly distract them from his slight moment of hesitation.
While Jubilee reads the passage he thinks, you were crying, you had tear tracks down your face.
"Professor!" Jean cuts in, Charles snaps out of his thoughts just to see the whole class staring at him slightly confused.
"Oh sorry, sorry" he scans outside in the hall, miraculously spotting Hank. With a sigh of relief he calls him over "Hey Hank!" Hank whips his head around, obviously not expecting to be called because everyone including teachers, besides him, were in class.
Charles wheels over to meet him at the door, turning back to the class "You all can chat for a few" before he turning to face Hank "Hey Hank would you mind taking over the class for a bit?"
Hank stutters for a moment, "Uh yea of of course Charles"
"Just have them read the passages out loud please" Charles wheels out of the room turning just to see Hank walk in and continue his class
