Lawrence narrowed his eyes. Another benefit of his chosen position was that he could see anyone entering the area and what they were doing - you know, so he could be ready if they wanted to have a conversation with him while he was busy 'working' on his lesson plans. He had known Donovan and Oren got along reasonably well, but when the three gathered close together and started whispering he knew something was going on. With how nervous and hurried Oren was in leaving and how legitimately invested he and Melinda appeared to be in Donovan's yarn, Lawrence knew it was probably something bad. It helped that Melinda was less than quiet about the whole exchange.
He quickly looks over the work he's done so far. Good enough for now, most students don't even show up for the first half of classes after the lunch break, much less pay that much attention. He hits the print button and retrieves his notes from the librarian's desk as they come out of the printer, then casually turned towards the two students.
"Well, I'm just about done here. You two alright? Mr. Ashton looked a bit upset, has something happen-"
It is then that he is interrupted by both Melinda and Oren shouting things out at practically the same time.
Superpowers? Exposure? Had he been found out?
Lawrence began to panic a little.
"Wait, what's going on? What do you mean, powers and chemicals?"
