Michael nodded as well, agreeing. "That's what I was thinking, too. I just needed to stop and sort of look around." After a small pause while he studied her face, he asked, "Are you okay with all this? I mean, I believe you are, since I'm an empath and all, but still..."

"I'm okay with all this. I promise." She said with a nod and smiled.

"Good," Michael said. He looked around once more. "So, where are we heading?" the question came out rather ambiguously, but he was only referring to the actual walking down the street.

Maya shrugged and looked up and down the street. "Hm...Let's head this way." She said and pointed to the direction they were walking before.

Michael took Maya by the hand and they headed in said direction. They walked in silence for a few moments, and he simply enjoyed her presence and the touch of her skin.

Maya's fingers entwined with his and she just enjoyed the walk in silence. She had missed this, just being with him in a comfortable silence.

"I was thinking of getting a job," Michael said after a while. "It might help with the boredom."

Maya nodded. "That sounds like a good idea. What kind of job, something in auto mechanic work?" She asked remembering that he had once told her he was good at that.

"Yes," Michael nodded. "It probably won't be much money, but what little I get, I might just spend on a car." He could keep an old car in good condition, so that meant it wouldn't have to be anything expensive.

"What kind of car would you get?" She asked with interest. Ava had had a slight fascination with cars and with the merge a bit of that had stuck.

"I have no idea," Michael said. "Probably something old, rotten and falling into pieces."

Maya laughed softly at that. "So you can fix it, right? I'm not going to have to worry about you getting into a car accident in some old, rotten thing that's falling into pieces, am I?"

"Well, yes," Michael said to the first part of her question. "Getting into an accident certainly won't be in my plans."

"Okay, good." Maya said with a small nod and a sigh of relief. Unconsciously, giving his hand a small squeeze.

Michael squeezed Maya's hand back. As they walked, a few small posters glued to a wall nearby drew his attention. Repeated on the wall several times, the same printed sheet announced that there would be some kind of a public rally concerning the rights of mutants. Michael slowed down his pace to take a better look.
