Disclaimer:I don't own X-Men:Evolution or it's characters, just my OC Molly Callum and any original characters/original background characters that might pop up from time to time.
AN: Well, it's been a ridiculously long time again, hasn't it? I'm really, really sorry! I didn't entirely realize I hadn't posted anything for almost a whole year! (I guessed, but didn't look at the date of my last story until now.) I'm shocked. I feel like I had every problem under the sun for the past few months, but mostly my lack of posting was because of writers block, loss of inspiration, and not feeling like writing anything romance related recently because I was feeling down on love. Like, annoyed with anything romantic. Personal issues there that I won't bore you with. I'm back now though! I'm not sure if this is my best story (Don't I always say that?), but hope you guys like it! Enjoy!
Edit: Also, 'The Sharing' is a shoutout/reference to the front from the Animorphs books, who's powers inspired Molly's own morphing powers. I like to reference other fandoms now and then, either directly or with parody. Animorphs and the original Sharing belong to K.A Applegate and Scholastic inc.
"Ahahaha!" Remy laughed, reading the e-mail. He raced out of his room to find Molly, who he hoped was in her room since it was a weekend afternoon.
He knocked on the door and after her heard "It's open," he opened it.
"I've got some great news," Remy was all energy and smiles. Molly was going to love this.
"What's up?" Molly rolled off the bed, putting down her magazine.
"I got an e-mail from Jenna and Vincent. They want to come out for a week and bring Dylan," Remy said.
"Really! Aw, that's totally awesome!" Molly was as excited as Remy was at seeing little Dylan again. It had been months since he'd been successfully adopted by his loving, well off French parents.
"We have to run it by everyone, but I'm sure it'll be okay," Remy said.
"Well what are we standing here for, lets go! Go, go, go!" Molly forcefully shoved Remy out of the room and down the hall to Xavier's office.
They knocked on the door to the Professor's office and we're let inside. The two were so excited they couldn't contain themselves and began to talk over one another.
"Vince and Jenna want to visit with Dylan for a week. That's okay, right?" Remy said at the same time Molly said,
"We've been good, we deserve it! Please?!"
"We haven't seen you two this excited in a while," Ororo smiled, "We only caught half that. Remy?"
"Jenna e-mailed me. They want to come visit with the baby for a week. They want to come next Monday. Is that alright?" Remy said.
The teachers looked at each other, seeming to be in silent agreement as they shared smiles. "That's fine," Charles said, "I look forward to meeting them. And seeing the baby, of course."
"Yes!" Molly cheered, "We can go to the park and the library. Visit the toy store."
"Take them out to see the sights," Remy agreed, "Maybe babysit so mama and pere can have some time to themselves while they're on vacation."
"Great idea. It'll be like old times!" Molly said, "uh, thanks Professor. Thanks everyone."
"Yes, thank you," Remy said.
The two left the room all a twitter. "We should probably pick up our rooms and things like that before next week," Remy pointed out, "For cleanliness' sake."
"Yeah," Molly said, "My laundry is getting out of hand again."
"I'll gladly help you with that," Remy looked at Molly flirtatiously.
"You worry about your room, I'll worry about mine," Molly laughed.
Sunday came. Molly and Remy found themselves on pins and needles. They fidgeted all the time and just kept smiling at each other excitedly.
"Will you guys at least try and sit still for five minutes?" Jean said as everyone sat in the kitchen, "Go watch some TV or something."
"TV, right," Molly said, "We should try and relax."
"She's right," Remy said, "We've cleaned everything there is to clean. Time to settle down."
They went into one of the downstairs rec rooms and turned on the TV.
There was commercial after commercial, of course, but one caught their attention in a big way.
"Are you feeling lost in the world? Isolated?" A soothing female voice said over pictures of a cloudy sky, "Maybe because the world has turned it's back on you for being a mutant? At The Sharing, no one is alone. Join us this Saturday at noon for a fun-fair in the park.
Benefits go to habitat for Humanity and No Child Goes Hungry..."
"Should we be worried about this?" Molly raised an eyebrow at Remy as the commercial ended.
"This? Nah, sounds like fun," Remy smiled.
"Come on Remy, this has red flags all over it. Some group comes out of nowhere welcoming mutants with open arms? Smells bad," Molly said.
"Petite, you have to learn that not everyone is out to get us," Remy ruffled her hair, "You're just being paranoid.
Too much caffeine in your system."
"Maybe," Molly said, smoothing her hair out. She didn't look convinced.
By Monday morning, Molly and Remy were up bright and early, being a thousand times more obnoxious then they had been previously.
They made Kurt look manageable by comparison.
"What time is it?" Molly asked...again.
"Seven thirty," Remy answered, "Not time yet."
"Where do you want to take them for dinner tomorrow night?" Molly asked.
"Dante's. I was thinking we could go to New York on Thursday," Remy smiled.
"If you guys don't quit it..." Ray growled, his hands sparking.
"They're just excited," Hank said, "They haven't seen Dylan in months."
"Yeah, well, they're excitement is driving us all to attempted murder," Tabitha stirred her cereal.
"Hey Remy," Scott spoke up, "You two have time to kill. Can you go pick some stuff up at the store?"
"Sure thing, hommes," Remy smiled cheerily, "What?"
Scott handed Remy a long list and Molly and Remy quickly left.
"I didn't think we needed anything at the store," Kitty said.
"We don't" Scott said, "That was to get them out of our hair for a while."
"My sanity and I thank you," Rogue, holding her head and looking ready to snap, said dramatically.
