It was a beautiful Saturday morning, and an unusual one at that. It was the day that the students had all been waiting for for quite some time, which was a trip to the somewhat nearby amusement park, "Coaster Town USA". They all had just arrived and even though they were there early, there was still a line a mile long. They all got their tickets and got there place in line while waiting for the gates to open, which was in about 20 minutes or so. They figured they had to make the best of their wait and conversed with each other, which mostly consisted of the person in the immediate front or back of them, as it was kind of hard to talk to a friend that was standing 2-3 people back. Evan, who was standing in between Kurt and Kitty, exclaimed, "Oh yeah, this is going to sick, man! You know the size of the coasters here? I've heard they have one that's like, 300 ft tall and goes 100mph!"

Kitty shuddered, as the thought of getting on any coaster, much less one that large, made her feel sick. "Yeah, like, that's never going to happen."

Kurt questioned as he directed his question past Evan, "Was? You don't like roller coasters, Kitty?"

"Nope. I remember I like, got on one as a kid, and I was totally freaked out! Haven't even thought about getting back on one ever since."

Evan laughed, "Ok, and that was what, 10 years ago or something? I think you'll be fine, dude, start small."

Kitty chuckled, it wasn't often she had been referred to as 'dude'. "Yeah, totally not happening."

Kurt added, trying to encourage his friend. "Aww, come on Kitty. It'll be fun! If it makes you feel anymore comfortable, I've never been on a roller coaster before. But, I'm excited to do something I've never done before. And I was... um, hoping maybe you'd ride with me? I can't ride without one of you in the car with me...", Kurt toned down his voice, "..you know, the 'fur' thing... That's all I need is to freak out a complete stranger. But not only that, I really want a good friend to be there with me."

Kitty felt a little pressured. On one hand, she was terrified of just the thought, but on the other, she didn't want Kurt to miss out either. She also didn't want to miss an opportunity to spend some time with her blue friend, who she had been having increasing feelings for lately. Would it really be so bad just to try? She convinced herself that it wouldn't be so bad, for both her friend and her own reasons. "Alright Kurt, you've convinced me. BUT, I want to start on the smallest one I can, well.. besides the children's section I suppose... and work my way up, you know?"

Kurt smiled, "That's great Kitty! I'm a little scared too you know, I've never done anything like this before. We'll be scared together!"

Kitty nearly blushed. He always said the cutest little lines, and his German accent made it all the better. She was admittedly nervous about the roller coasters, but she was very happy as well, what better way to spend the day than with her fuzzy friend?

The gates had finally open and the group made their way into the park. The professor gathered the students around to discuss the meeting time. "Students, please feel free to travel anywhere in the park, as well as split up anyway you would like. The only stipulation is that you all meet back at this space at 5:00. Until then, have fun, but please be careful with your powers. Don't do or get on anything that would place you in a highly stressful situation, as your powers may become more unpredictable. Use your best judgment, as my students, that is what I trust you to do."

Scott stated, being his usual 'in control' self, "Not a problem Professor, right guys?" Everyone agreed.

"Very well then. Have fun everyone." Everyone soon split up into their own little groups: Scott and Jean; Kurt and Kitty; Evan and Rogue. While the others started to split into their own directions, Kurt ran over to a visitor's stand to grab a much needed map of the park.

Once he made his way back over to Kitty, he asked, "Hmm, where to first? What do you think Kitty?"

Kitty replied, "Well, I know I said about trying a roller coaster and all... but like, how about we get warmed up first? What other rides do they have besides coasters?"

Kurt scanned the map for a ride that might appeal to Kitty. "Ah! Here's one! It's a flying swing ride, looks very mild."

Kitty laughed, hoping she wasn't seeming like too much of a wimp. "Ok, yeah, lets do that. Is it around here?"

"Ja, should be right around the corner." The two started to make their way towards the ride. Once they got there, they were quite relieved to discover there was a very short line. By the time they got in line, the previous riders were exiting and they were being let in. They tried to find the 'perfect' seat, and of course, took two seats right next to each other. The two took their seat and latched themselves in, which was soon followed by the ride attendant double checking their safety bars. Kurt exclaimed after seeing the attendant exit. "Yes! I'm so excited! My first ride!"

Kitty laughed at the childhood innocence of her friend. Her giggling was quickly interrupted by the safety announcement over the intercom. "Welcome to the Soaring Carousel, please enjoy your ride. Please secure all loose articles and keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times."

Kitty turned to and poked fun at her friend. "I didn't hear them say anything about tails, Kurt."

Kurt chuckled, but then remembered that these rides were designed for the 'tailless sort'. The seats of the ride had a solid back, but there were very large openings on the sides of the seat and in front to allow legs to hang from. His tail, which was invisible because of his image inducer, was hanging out from the side. He said to Kitty, a little uncertain, "Uh... I think I'll be ok?" Kurt paused, looked down to where his tail was, and said, "Eh... just to be safe." He coiled his tail tightly around his ankle to ensure it was out of harms way. "Thanks for bringing that to my attention, Kitty!"

Kitty smiled, "Don't sweat it!" The ride suddenly started to move, which sort of startled the both of them. "Here we go!" The seats slowly rose off the ground until they got about 50ft up in the air. The large center base of the ride started to rotate as it sent its passengers soaring around. Kurt was so facinated, he had never been on anything like this. Kitty turned to him and shouted to him from up in the air, "So, like, what do you think?"

"This is amazing!" Kurt closed his eyes as he enjoyed the feeling of the wind gusting through his hair and against his fur. Kitty smiled at his serene expression. The two continued to go around for several laps until the ride finally stopped and slowly made it's way back to the ground. Once they were given permission to exit, Kurt couldn't start talking about it fast enough. "That was wunderbar! If that ride was so cool, I can't wait to try the others! Say we take it up a notch, Kitty?"

Kitty laughed at her giddy friend. She loved seeing him so happy, it was almost as if he were reliving a childhood he never had. She was going to try her best to put her fears aside to make this day as special as she could for her blue friend. "Ok, but not too much!"

Kurt pulled out the brochure to look for their next adventure. "Ok Kitty, what about this one? It's called the Rodeo! You sit in a bull, 2 riders in each, and it whips you around as it takes you in a circle as well. Sounds like fun, ja?"

Kitty didn't think it sounded too bad, so she agreed. The two then headed off in the direction of their next destination.

A/N: So, I thought this was a pretty original idea I had so I figured I'd give it a shot. Hope you are enjoying it so far! It's only going to be a few chapters, so it shouldn't take me too long to get completed! Please let me know what you think of it so far! Review, review, review! :D
