Hey folks, how're you all doing?

So, here's my first X-Men Evolution fanfic, and it is based on the TV Series "My So Called Life". You don't have to watch it to understand this fic, but if you're watching it currently, or plan on doing that, maybe you don't want to read this fic before you do so, because the end of my fic is exactly like the ending of the show, and reading it will totally spoil your fun if you're into "My So Called Life
It's a kind of an AU because I didn't exactly follow the course that X-Men Evo followed. They're still mutants, still enemies, but I wanted to focus on their human side, so there's no mention of them using their powers or fighting each other.
Rating's to be safe. If you read the fic, plase leave me a comment to let me know what you think. Next chapters are almost finished already, so make me happy with a review and I'll post it asap :)

Disclaimer: I do not own X-Men Evolution or any of its characters, they all belong to Marvel and Fox. I also do not own the plot of My So Called Life, I just used it as reference.

(Please have in mind that English is not my mother tongue, but I'm trying my best here ^^)

Chapter 1

Kitty woke up to the sound of her alarm clock as usual. She wanted to open her eyes, but they felt swollen and itchy, she knew it was from crying herself to sleep last night - again.

A few weeks before, she and Lance had broken up. There were just too many differences between them for the sake of their relationship, and she was sick and tired of having argument after stupid argument with Lance every other day. It was like they would fight more then anything else, and it didn't feel right to her. Plus, she knew he was expecting from her something she wasn't quite yet ready to give him.

Flashback

It was a nice spring night and they were on Lance's jeep, parked at top of a small hill nearby the Institute. They had been kissing and making out for a while when Kitty felt things were starting to get under control. She could sense Lance's arms all around her, turning her on with every touch, she could feel his desperate desire with every passionate kiss he gave her. She was herself burning with desire, but she knew she couldn't go on, not like that, not at that moment.

"Lance…" - she called in a whisper in between their kisses, - "Lance" – she repeated. He broke the kiss and looked at her with those beautiful brown eyes, that were clouded with lust. – "Don't you think we should, like, stop?" – she asked timidly, blushing slightly.

He stared at her for a moment before placing a gentle kiss on her neck.

"I don't think we should stop, Pretty Kitty" he said in a low voice, "but if you want to, then we should."

Kitty smiled at him. He could be such a jerk at some times, but at others he was just like a prince charming. They sat straight and stayed in silence for a few minutes, trying to regain their breaths.

"Kitten" – Lance called softly after a good 10 minutes, looking into her big blue eyes - "You know I love you, right?"

"Like, duh!" – she said with a smile – "Of course I do! And… I love you too" she blushed a little, but kept her eyes on his.

"Then… why do you keep pushing me away?" he asked sounding suddenly very upset, and when he drove his gaze away from Kitty's eyes, she thought she had spotted a shadow of pain crossing his face. "I mean", he continued "you know I care about you and I wouldn't do anything to really hurt you… so why do you not wanna go all the way with me?"

She blinked several times before regaining control over her own voice, which she didn't even realize she had lost as he said those words to her.

"It's not that I, like, don't want to go all the way with you" she assumed a defensive tone to try and not show how hurt she was.

"Then what is it?"

"I just… I'm not sure if I'm ready, ok!"

"Do you not love me enough?" Lance asked rather rudely, making her stare in shock.

"It's not that!" she raised her voice several tones, "I, like, can't believe you would say such things to me!"

"Well, if you love me like you're saying, then why is it that you won't have sex with me?" he raised his voice too, staring back at Kitty's wide eyes.

"Because I'm not ready, that's all! And I thought you loved me enough to understand that!"

Tears were welling in the back of her eyes now, and she was shaking with shock and anger. Lance too seemed to be losing control of himself as he said in angry tone:

"What? So… you think I don't love you enough? I've been waiting for you for too long now Kitty, don't you think that's 'loving you enough'?"

"Oh my God" Kitty felt the tears flowing free down her cheeks now, "I can't believe… I can't believe we're having this discussion!"

"Me neither" Lance said, not looking at Kitty this time. "This is not going anywhere anyhow."

"Are you, like, breaking up with me?" Kitty asked in a faint squeak.

"Like, duh!" Lance said in an imitation of her Valley accent, but regretted it immediately as he saw the look on Kitty's saddened eyes. Fighting with her over such a stupid thing was not what he had intended, he only wanted to talk about it and get her motives right, but his bad temper had once again taken the best of him, and when he realized the damage had already been done.

Kitty threw him a painful look before getting out of the Jeep without saying another word.

"Kitten…" Lance called after her, meaning to apologize, but she didn't look back.

Ashamed of what he'd done, he didn't have the guts to go after her, so he just let her walk away from him. He sighed and passed his hand through his hair repeatedly before he started the jeep and drove towards the boarding house, knowing Kitty would never forgive him for what happened that night.
