Title: Devil Beside You- Chapter 1/?

Author: Sea-Songstress

Summary: Multi-ChapteredKyro fic that I have had in mind for a while. I can't really explain what it's about but basically it's them finding love with each other and all the obstacles they must face and so on. You'll see if you decide to read and hopefully in later chapters I'll come up with a better summary and title. Suggestions are welcomes for both. It has mostly romance and humor, some angst, but I'm kind of sick of angst so I'm trying to keep things light and fluffy for the most part.

Rating: Pg-13 for now I guess...

Disclaimer: I make no claim the characters I write about in this story and so on and would not liked to be sued because I like to write fanfiction. Thank you.

Notes: Sorry if it's OOC, I tried my best to stay in character. I guess I added a few characters and changed a few things...:shrugs shoulders: Oh well flame if you'd like...It's just the way I imagine them and the story. AU of course, in a way...I don't know...you'll see. Please read and review! Oh and bold is John's thoughts and italics are Kitty's because I'm cool like that. :/

Kitty tossed and turned in her bed the night before the new school year started. She had just arrived back that day from spending the summer with her sister and her new brother-in-law, even though it wasn't the ideal to spend her summer with the newly weds she was very close to her older sister and she was the only person Kitty had left of her family. She also knew from experience that there are worse places she could have spent her summer.

She was having a nightmare she had experienced many times before, just never at school. She actually had the nightmare the night she found out she was a mutant. The nightmare consisted of people fighting all around her though she could not make out the faces of those fighting. Before she wakes up she is on a metal table and there is a figure above her she cannot make it. She tries to reach out and touch whoever or whatever it is, but realizes she is in a permanently phased state. She starts to freak out in the dream leading to complications in reality.

Everyone had always made fun of the fact that Kitty was so tiny, but no one had every questioned why.. Even though she was the youngest of her age group at school, the only people in school she easily towered over were the 5-7 year olds. Other then that Kitty matched height or was easily towered over her petite 5'0 feet. People thought it was funny to make fun of her petiteness, but no one had really questioned it. They figured it just ran in her family, which was not true. Kitty also youngest in her own family, was the shortest of all of them. Her father was 6 foot 2, her mother was 5 foot 6, and her sister was 5 foot 7. So how did Kitty become the outcast of her reasonably tall or taller family?

The answer lies in the fact that Kitty was born premature due to the fact that her mother tried to

conceal the fact that she was pregnant with Kitty by smoking cigarettes. The family had been under a lot of stress with her 8 year old sister and were not ready to have another child. Even though smoking does hide a pregnancy for a significant amount of time it in the long run leads to serious health problems for the child which Kitty had experienced all her life. This included stunt growth and chronic asthma. Now that you have that information we can now go back to our story where everything will soon make sense again, anyways...

Kitty awoke gasping for air and panicking. The problem with Kitty is when she is scared of anything she has a habit of phasing, so Kitty unwillingly phased through the bed and landed hard on someone.

The person awoke at the sudden feeling of another person land on top of them and let out a grunt. Kitty moved around trying to calm down and catch her breath. When she finally did she realized the was straddling someone. Her eyes were clenched shut, afraid to open then and see who she had landed on.

Please be someone understanding and won't use this against me.

Of course her prayers were not answered as she opened her blue eyes to see bemused hazel ones staring back at her. Her eyes nearly bulged out of her head and she was to shocked to move. Her mouth hung open and she expected him to start screaming at her any minute. He expected him to wake up the whole mansion and have everyone pass rumours about her and St. John Allerdyce or Pyro as most people call him.

Instead when she looked at his face again he had that cocky sly grin plastered on his face and when he noticed he had finally got her attention he began to speak.

"Why kitten if you wanted to share my bed all you had to do was knock on my door. I would have let you in no problem."

Her mouth widened more at what he just said and she squeaked when she felt a large warm hand slowly slide up her back. Even though it was over her shirt John soon felt tingling as Kitty phased through him and landed in the pantry that was below his room. He hated when she did that, but laughed at how easy it was to make her so nervous.

Serves her right he thought as he turned over to go back to sleep. Even though he did not care to go to school the next day he knew that he shouldn't fall asleep on the first day of the new school year.

After Kitty recovered from landing in the pantry she scowled at what John just did.

Stupid John...I'll get him back if it's the last thing I do.

She silently made her way back up to her room and got into bed. She pondered over what was going to happen the next day with John. Was he going to tell people about this? Was he going to try to blackmail her so he would keep the incident secret? She didn't know what was going to happen the next day with him, but she knew that she would exact her revenge soon and it was going to be sweet.
