Erev Shel Shoshanim
Kitty Pryde smiled giddily to herself as she practically floated down the stairs of the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters. Last night had been the best night of her life. She pleasantly reviewed the events in her head. Bram had picked her up right on time. They had gone to see Titanic at the drive-in, and had a great time. Bram even kissed her when it was over. He was perfect, smart, sensitive, and totally hot!
Kitty dreamily phased through Kurt on her way to Scott's car.
"Keety? Are you ok?" Kurt asked worriedly.
"I'm totally fine Kurt. I'm better than fine. In fact, I'm perfect. Just perfect," replied Kitty.
"Oh.okay." said a very confused Kurt.
Kitty went outside and got into the backseat of Scott's car. 'Yes, perfect,' she thought. 'Completely perfect. I've got a hot new boyfriend who really likes me, and the added plus of Lance being so totally jealous.' She smirked to herself.
************************* AT SCHOOL.*********************************
Kitty was dreamily walking down the hall on her way to lunch when she bumped into Pietro Maximoff.
"Jesus Pryde! Why don't you watch where you're going!" He snapped peevishly at her.
"God Pietro, it was an accident. You don't have to be so rude about it," Kitty said, glaring at him
"You were completely zoned out Pryde. Thinking about you're loser boyfriend? What's his name again?"
"His name is Bram, and he is NOT a loser. He very sweet and considered, not like some people I know."
Pietro smirked at her. "Please Pryde. I bet you're dates are totally boring. You probably sit in the mansion and play Scrabble while the Professor chaperones."
Kitty bristled. "Hey! I only did that once! And that was at your house, with Lance!"
He smirked again. "I rest my case Pryde. You date stupid guys and do boring things on dates."
"I date stupid guys? What about your girlfriends? They're lucky if they have 5 brain cells between them. Whom are you dating now? Gwen? That stupid bimbo cheerleader? She's hardly going to be considered smart Pietro," Kitty smiled wickedly at him.
It was Pietro's turn to glare. "Just because she doesn't spend all of her time obsessed with school like you do doesn't mean that she's stupid. At least she knows how to have fun!"
"Are you actually defending her intelligence?" Kitty yelled, shocked. "She couldn't pass high school is her life depended on it! And I do to know how to have fun! Just because I don't go out to some drunken party every night doesn't mean I'm boring."
"Yeah, you just keep telling yourself that Pryde. You wish that I would take you to one of those parties. But then, you really don't fit in with my crowd. Better just stick to Scrabble, eh?
Kitty gave him her meanest glare; ready to throw back a retort when he interrupted her.
"I've got better things to do than stand here and waste my good looks on you." And with that, Pietro loped off to the cafeteria.
"Jerk!" Kitty screamed after him. "Stupid, arrogant, full of himself, annoying, loser JERK!" she muttered to herself.
Kitty stomped off to join her friends in the cafeteria, her good day ruined by Pietro's stupid smirk and overly arrogant attitude.
**************************After School...********************************
Kitty stalked out to Scott's car, still PO'ed about the earlier incident with Pietro.
"Something wrong Kitty?" asked Scott. "You seem made about something. Has that jerk Alvers been bothering you again?"
Kitty groaned. Scott could be so annoying, especially when she was in a bad mood.
"No Scott, nothing's wrong. I'm fine, ok? Just peachy keen. God, can't a girl be mad about something and not get the 3rd degree about it?"
"You know Kitty, Scott's only looking out for you," Jean said gently.
'Stupid Jean' though Kitty. 'Always jumping in to defend Scott. Can't she see how annoying and dumb he is?'
**********************At Home..****************************************
Kitty sat on her bed thinking about Pietro. He was so rude and arrogant. And how dare he make assumptions about her personal life! He didn't even know her! The nerve.. But on top of all that, Kitty couldn't help but think about how gorgeous Pietro really was. And smart, and funny, when he wasn't making fun of her.
'Oh God,' Kitty thought. 'Don't tell me I'm falling for Maximoff. I can't be. I've got Bram, and he's perfect for me.'
But she couldn't help thinking that Bram, cute and sweet as he was, was no Pietro Maximoff. Pietro was smarter (and he didn't need the grades to prove it), better looking, and probably more fun. Pietro lived dangerously, something that Kitty had never experienced. He didn't care for the rules, he did what he pleased when he pleased. To Kitty, it seemed like a great way to go through life. Everyone thought that she was so predictable. Always the model student, top of her class, nice and kind, dating the right boys. Well Kitty was tired of being that girl. She was tired of being the little one, the weakest one. She was ready to become the person she had always wanted to be.
'Pietro is wrong about me,' Kitty though to herself. 'And I'm going to prove it to him and to myself. It's time for some change.'
And who knows, maybe, just maybe, the new Kitty would be someone that Pietro Maximoff was interested it.
"I can only hope," Kitty said, giggling to herself. "I can only hope."
Well, was that truly awful? Please please please read and review. Any criticism is welcome, as are ideas, comments, concerns, etc.
