A/N: Ah, the joys of being bored and having study hall... You can thank the Friday release of X3 for this one. Oh, and most of the interaction with the girls has actually taken place. Multiple times, as a matter of fact. You just can't make some of this stuff up. Yeah, we have issues.

X-Obsessed

"Today should be Friday..." a girl complained, rubbling her eyes with her knuckles.

"Today is Friday, you dumbass," another girl, slightly older than the other, corrected. And indeed it was. After one of the longest weeks in high school history, it was finally Friday. And not just any Friday, either. No, it was the Friday before a wonderful, glorious, spectacular, much needed four day weekend.

"Well, in that case..." The first girl, Ashley, pulled out a few loose pieces of paper from her backpack and slammed them down on the desk in front of her. "We should continue with this, then."

"Oh, God..." a third girl slumped back in her seat in exasperation. "Not this again."

"Oh yes, this again." Ashley grinned widely and gestured for the second girl, Sarah, to give her a pen.

"Don't worry, Celia," Sarah said, "We're almost done with the synopsis of the second movie."

"And I think we'll get away with not doing the third one," Ashley chimed, "Seeing as how you're going to be seeing it in... four days anyway."

Celia sighed and let the other two go to work.

"All right, so yesterday we left off with..." Ashley flipped the papers over until she found the previous day's ending point. "Rogue. Ick." There was a pause as the X-obsessed girls thought for a minute. "No, that's not right."

"Yeah, we did Bobby and those people and the complete synopsis of the first one yesterday."

"Right." A light-bulb clicked on. "Right right right! But we had to do them on a different paper because..." Ashley delved back into her backpack. "I temporarily misplaced the original." With a flourish, she produced the correct piece of paper. "Voila!"

"Good for you," Sarah clapped comically. "All right, so where were we?"

"Um... at the part in X2 where Pyro's blowing stuff up and is being awesome and cool and blowing up cops which pisses me off because I love cops, but it's Pyro so I deal with it."

"Okay then. So they come in the jet to rescue them and-"

"Ah, hold on!" Ashley exclaimed, scribbling frantically. "I can't write that fast!" Sarah waited patiently for her counterpart to be finished. Two minutes later, she realized something was wrong, considering Ashley was still writing very quickly.

"Ashley!" Sarah exclaimed, having figured out what was going on.

"What!"

"Stop writing about Pyro!"

"No! Just because I'm not done saying exactly what he does at every moment in the scene does not mean I can stop in the middle!"

"Ashley!"

"Fine! Just give me a few more minutes, all right?"

"Fine."

"Thank you!" With that, Ashley put her head back down and resumed what she was doing. Eventually, she put the pen down and cracked her knuckles loudly. "All right, I'm good. Moving on."

"All right, so they come in the jet and save them-"

"-After Rogue succeeds in pissing me off more than usual by touching Pyro-"

"Right, and some other fairly unimportant stuff happens-"

"-Mainly because Pyro doesn't do anything worth mentioning-"

"Sure, and eventually they go to Alkali Lake (that's the place in Canada from the beginning of the movie)-"

"-All this, of course, happens after about half an hour of footage that we just completely skipped because we're trying to work in time constraints here and we know you just don't care that much-"

"I appreciate that," Celia said, looking more and more like she was regretting allowing her friends to do this by the minute.

"And then-"

"-And then Pyro walks in the classroom and Ashley has a freaking heart attack."

"I'm relatively sure that's not in the script," Sarah commented with a laugh. It took her a moment before realizing that Ashley was staring in the general direction of the front of the room with a rather confused look on her face. Given, that was the look that she had most of the time, but it had actually seemed to have intensified.

"Padfoot?" Celia used her friend's nickname as she waved a hand in front of the other's face. "Are you still here?"

"No..." the answer was vague and sounded distant. "I'm not."

"Ashley, what are you-" Sarah cut herself off upon following her counterpart's line of vision. "Huh?"

Celia followed suit, never one to be left in the proverbial dark.

"Hey," she said intelligently, "Isn't that that guy? The one you're obsessed with?"

"Ah, there are so many of them" was the answer that should have come. But it didn't. Instead, the only response that Celia got was a strangled "Uh huh" before Ashley passed out from the shock.

All right, yes, I realize that ranks right up there on the list of Ashley's Crappiest Endings, but hey, when I can get two chapters out of one, I jump at the chance. Speaking of which, the next chapter should be slightly more entertaining than this one was. Peace.
