A/N: Takes place after 'Joyride'. It's been a week since Lance rejoined the Brotherhood. Kitty is having conflicting thoughts and feelings ever since. Her brain is stating the obvious, stay with the X-Men. But her heart has a completely different idea. Lancitty R&R.

Kitty's Joyride

Kitty lied awake staring at the ceiling. She looked at her clock, 11:49. Why can't I sleep!? She yelled frustrated at herself.

You know why. Her heart said.

Shut up! Her brain said.

Why? You know it's true.

But, he's

Brotherhood? That never stopped you before.

But…

She looked at her clock again just as it turned to 12:00.

He tried to help me when we first met. He's saved my life more than once. He even gave this life a try for me... It's time I did the same for him.

Her heart made up, she grabbed her duffel bag, filled it with clothes, changed into a long-sleeved shirt and jeans, and grabbed her stuffed dragon Lockheed before phasing to the main floor and out the front door.


Hope I don't end up regretting this. Kitty thought as she phased into Lance's room. She smirked at his room, surprised to see it was actually remotely clean.

She walked up to the bed and saw Lance. She was surprised at how peaceful he looked. "Lance," she whispered.

"Hm? What the? Kitty!?"

"SHH!" she said clamping a hand over his mouth.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

"We'll sort that out tomorrow. For now I'm going to change and go to sleep."

As she left to change in the bathroom, she left Lance to wonder. He was surprised when she came back into his room in her nightshirt.

"Kitty?"

"What?" she asked as she slipped under the covers next to him, snuggling close.

"Never mind." He said and held her close as she used his chest as a pillow. Soon they slipped into the most peaceful sleep they could remember.


Lance blinked as sunlight hit his eyes. He looked down at the angel sleeping in his arms and stroked her hair.

"Go back to sleep Lance." She mumbled.

"I'd love to, but I'm kind of hungry."

"Well then I should tell Fred to make another plate."

Lance and Kitty looked at his doorway to see Tabby smirking at them, "Peitro's gonna love this!"


Peitro looked like he was gonna blow a fuse. "Someone please tell me why there is an X-geek in our house!?" he demanded.

Fred had made eggs and bacon for everyone. Kitty just sat there calmly eating as Peitro raged.

"Cause she dropped by for s social call. How you been?" Tabitha asked.

"lonely. What about you? How do you handle these guys?"

"Please, life here is paradise compared to life at the mansion. Actually, why are you really here?"

Kitty finished her eggs, stood up, crossed her arms, and with a smirk said, "I want to join the Brotherhood."
