A/N: I decided to shift gears here, and try a Lance/Kitty fanfic, because they're one of my favorite couples. It's kind of a song fic but then again it's not. Well look, you hear parts of the song in the story so technically... oh whatever, you people don't care. As always reviews are happily accepted!

Disclaimer: Sadly, I don't own any Xmen characters or this song, if I did, do you really think I'd be spending my time writing fanfics? No, no, no...

Kitty picked up her bags and slipped on her headphones as the bell rang, signaling the end of third period. It was a half-day, so school was over for the day and she trudged to her locker.

My grades are down from A's to B's, I'm way behind, In History. I've lost myself in fantasies of you and me together. I don't know why but dreaming is all I do. I won't get by on mere imagination! Upside down, bouncing off the ceiling, Inside out, a stranger to this feeling. Got no clue, what I should do, I'd go crazy if I can't get next to you!

The song really made Kitty feel worse, it was describing her perfectly. All she did now it seemed was dream of her and Lance Alvers. It took up most of her time, so her grades were dropping. And to makes matters even worse she knew her dreams would never come true. Sure, she thought he liked her, but it was so hard to tell what was going on in that boy's mind.

Twirling the padlock on her locker to get her book, the stupid thing refused to open. "Ooh!" She yelled in frustration beating on the locker door. Looking right and left to make sure no one was there she phased through and took out the book she needed. Her day had been pretty bad, she'd forgotten her homework for World History, flunked a test in Biology, and then she had to deal with her stupid locker.

Walking to the exit she saw the taillights of Scott's car as it pulled out of the parking lot, leaving her behind. "Ahh! Could this day, like get any worse?!" She yelled and threw her stuff down on the sidewalk and felt the burning behind her eyes, a warning that tears were sure to fall soon.

"Jeez, Kitty, no need to take it out on the pavement." A voice said from behind her, and she whirled to see Lance bend to pick up her books.

"Lance! What are you, like still doing here?" She asked and he got up holding her things.

"I was looking for you. Told Summers to go ahead so I could give you a ride home." He took her by the hand and led her to his Jeep and opened the door, picking her up and set her on the seat with her stuff. (A/N: Sometimes shortness can be a good thing... lol) Lance got in and looked at her through his rear view mirror and saw that her eyes were glistened with unshed tears.

"What's wrong Kitty?" He turned to face her but she simply turned her eyes away.

"Just had a bad day... that's all." She mumbled and he reached over and caught her chin in his hand and turned her face so he could see her eyes.

"You won't have any bad days if you agree to be my girlfriend Kitty. I can promise you that." He whispered and her eyes widened. Choking back a sob she threw her arms around his neck and whispered, "Yes, you've no idea how long I've wanted to hear you say that." Lance smiled into her hair and pulled her into his lap and just held her until she calmed down.
