Freak with a pen walks out in a red shirt with a black skull on it, a pair of blue jeans and a cup of coffee in his hands.

Freak: hey I'm kinda on edge today so…Uhh…Tabby?

Tabitha: sure, freak owns nothing from X-men evolution.

Freak: thanks

Uncovered love affair

Chapter 2:

So what happened?

9:10

Lance looked around the room at his friends. Fred was looking at his feet, Pietro was rubbing the back of his neck while shift fully looking to his right, at nothing really, Todd was pretty much trying to look anywhere but at Fred. Lance sighed.

Lance: I guess I'll ask what were all thinking.

Lance sat in one of the chairs in the living room, while Pietro took the other and Todd sat on the arm rest opposite the side Fred sat on.

Lance: Sooooo… how did you and Tabb's… you know.

Fred: well a couple a weeks ago when nobody else was home Tabitha comes up to me and Sais…

Flashback

10:30 a few weeks ago

Tabitha: hey Freddy you wanna go rock climbing?

At this Tabitha held up a rock climbing harness.

Fred: I don't think so Tabby.

Tabitha: you sure?

Fred: yeah, it doesn't sound like my kind of thing. You go have fun though.

Tabitha shrugged.

Tabitha: Kay see ya.

Fred: yeah, see ya.

12:30 the same day

Fred checked the clock on the wall. Tabitha had been gone for two hours, and Fred was getting worried.

Fred: where the hell is she?

It was at this point that Fred's cell phone went off. Fred got it out of his pocket and saw it was Tabitha. He opened it and put it to his ear.

Fred: Tabitha? Where are you?

Tabitha (over the phone in a scared voice): Fred? Help, there was an avalanche or something and now I'm trapped.

Fred: oh god! Are you hurt?!

Tabitha: no, but I'm in a cave and some rocks are blocking the way out.

Fred: Can you blast your way out?!

Tabitha: I'm scared that the whole thing will come down on me. Fred, please help!

Fred: I'm on my way, hold on Tabitha!

Fred ran as fast as he could to his truck, he had it modified to fit his particular body type. He drove through three red lights but no one was at the intersections so no one got hurt. He got to the small mountain that Tabitha had found a year ago. Fred got out of the truck.

Fred: TABITHA!

Tabitha: FRED?!

Fred quickly found the cave entrance and with strength that was incredible for his standards of mutant muscle he cleared the mouth of the cave. Tabitha was curled into a ball in the cave. Fred ran up scooped her up into his arms and ran out the cave, just as the cave collapsed.

Fred looked down at Tabitha in his arms.

Fred: Tabitha?

Tabitha: I thought I was gonna die. OH GOD, THANK YOU, FRED!

Tabitha then flung her arms around his neck in a tight embrace as she cried into his shirt. Fred started to rub her back in comfort.

Fred: its okay, Tabby, I won't let anything hurt you, ever.

End flashback

Fred: that's when I realized I loved her.

The other tree mutants in the room were shocked into being slack jawed. Todd was the first to speak.

Todd: HOLY SHIT, that's crazy, yo.

Pietro: that's amazing man.

Fred just shrugged.

Fred: what can I say, man, I love her.

9:13

Wanda and Mystique walked into Tabitha's room.

Wanda: so?

Tabitha knowing what her friend wanted to know.

Well it started a few weeks when I went up to Fred and said…

Flashback

Tabitha: hey Freddy you wanna go rock climbing?

At this Tabitha held up a rock climbing harness.

Fred: I don't think so Tabby.

Tabitha: you sure?

Fred: yeah, it doesn't sound like my kind of thing. You go have fun though.

Tabitha shrugged.

Tabitha: Kay see ya.

Fred: yeah, see ya.

Tabitha decided to walk to the small mountain she had found a year ago; it had taken about a half hour.

She started to climb but about another half hour latter there was some kind of tremor and she fell in a cave, she was knocked out in the process.

She awoke an hour latter and as quickly called someone she somehow knew would save her. After she dialed the number she shook every second he didn't answer.

Fred(over the phone): Tabitha? Where are you?

Tabitha: Fred? Help, there was an avalanche or something and now I'm trapped.

Fred: oh god! Are you hurt?!

Tabitha: no, but I'm in a cave and some rocks are blocking the way out.

Fred: Can you blast your way out?!

Tabitha: I'm scared that the whole thing will come down on me. Fred, please help!

Fred: I'm on my way, hold on Tabitha!

Tabitha sat in the middle of the cave, pulled her knees up to her chest, and waited for Fred.

A few minutes later she heard it.

Fred: TABITHA!

Tabitha: FRED?!

Fred quickly found the cave entrance and with strength that was incredible for his standards of mutant muscle he cleared the mouth of the cave. Tabitha was curled into a ball in the cave. Fred ran up scooped her up into his arms and ran out the cave, just as the cave collapsed.

Fred looked down at Tabitha in his arms.

Fred: Tabitha?

Tabitha: I thought I was gonna die. OH GOD, THANK YOU, FRED!

Tabitha then flung her arms around his neck in a tight embrace as she cried into his shirt. Fred started to rub her back in comfort.

Fred: its okay, Tabby, I won't let anything hurt you, ever.

End flashback

Tabitha: that's when I finely saw it, I had fallen for Fred

Wanda: Aww, that's so romantic.

Mystique: one thing seems strange though why did you want to keep it secret?

Tabitha: I didn't…

Tabitha: so there it is

Fred: that was really good one, freak…you okay?

Freak's head is turned away.

Freak: I'm fine, I just got something in my eye, leave me alone (sniff) anyway read and review, and no flames

Freak whistles and a Cerberus-like dog appears.

Freak: seriously no flames. As always, peace to all my fellow freaks.
