Temptress.

I don't know what these feelings are. I don't know whether to chalk it up as another sin and try to forget it or to just leave it be and see what it evolves into. I'm running out of room for anymore tattoos anyway. Whatever I decide, I don't think I'll just abandon it. Even if it is sinful, it makes me strive for something. Strive for her.

I don't know if it's love, or just pure lust. When I first saw her in my sanctuary, the church up in Boston, I watched her longingly. It was just lust at the point. Watching her curvy figure sway to and fro, as she walked towards me.

I doubt she shared the same longing for my body, though. On the outside, I am a hideous creature. I have blue skin, from head to toe, and although I can hide it most of the time, my other features aren't too appealing either. I have three fingers, all of them twice the size of a normal human's. My teeth are pointed and sharp, like fangs a three foot long tail that helps me greatly in conflicts, but not when I'm trying to attract her, the women who all these confusing emotions are directed towards.

I'd like to think that on the inside, I am different. I would like to think that on the inside, I am beautiful. Almost as beautiful as my temptress. But how could someone with so many sins have a pure soul? One tattoo for each sin.and I have a lot of tattoos. They scar my body, reminders of how much redemption I need.

When she asked what they were, I told her. She seemed to actually care. And later, when we she asked me to teleport into the room Xavier was locked in, I was hesitant at first, I didn't want any harm to come to her, but when she told me that she had faith in me, my heart took a leap. Hearing those simple words, coming from her, had a wonderful effect on me.

I don't know if I will be able to get the redemption I seek. Maybe if I'm lucky, she will forgive me for the thoughts I have whenever I see her. The overwhelming feeling to hold her, to kiss her.have her kiss me back. That's the best I could hope for from her.forgiveness.

But maybe someday, she'll love me back.

My Temptress.

My love.

Ororo.

A/N-My first X-Men fic, that was a short story I thought up after seeing X2. I don't know if it's just me, but I thought it was obvious that Kurt/NightCrawler had feelings for Ororo/Storm. Please Review.
