Nadius's weight made the bed dip down more as he pulled his wife closer. He kissed her forehead slowly. Hos voice has a track of mock shock. "Go back and save him?  I don't have time to be a superhero, this is true. However, haven't you always said that Henry is your favorite nephew?"

"He's my favorite when he is not stopping me from getting what I want. Right now he is not my favorite."

Nadius kissed her deeply before pulling back and looking at her with an amused expression. "I can't seem to remember what we were doing last night. It's slipped my mind, I should get back to the city."

"Oh no you're not." Sheng Mei tackled him so she was above him. She leaned down and began to take off his s.h.i.+rt. Nadius felt his inhibitions begin to leave him as he found his mind begin to comply with his wife. Sheng Mei had a point. Henry was not in any immediate danger from a lovely woman. He on the other hand was very happy to be in danger from this beautiful woman.

Instead of students in this case it was every ethniciy, age, and s.e.x huddled together in front pf the reception desk. In the corners of the room gangs of children had set up fighting rings were tousling kids tried to tear off each others s.h.i.+rts. No one was supervising these boxing matches. There was a little study group as a acned teenager read aloud from Campbell's biology and fielded questions. Next to them a pair of older overweight Arab men were smoking a hookah while arguing loudly in Arabic about the football game that was playing on the wall opposite at maximum volume. Then in front of the empty desk was a swath of mothers who were arguing in badly accented english about whose baby would see the doctor next
