Sure Things
Chapter 2: The Dinner
Kitty sat through dinner eating in 'extremely small portions' she called it when others asked why she didn't eat a lot. She looked over at Kurt who was sitting next to Beast discussing genetics.
She felt eyes of another staring at her. She knew it wasn't Xavier, he could read her mind I'm pretty sure he got a firm grasp of the things going through her head I don't think he could bare to look at her.
She felt the stare from her right and looked that way just. Sitting next to Xavier was storm dressed in all white she looked at her smiling widely and winking.
Kitty looked confused. 'What in the world is Stor- CRAP!' She thought cutting herself off and her eyes widened and her pupils shrunk. Her light brown eyes turned dark brown as she tried to hide her face and she slouched through her chair just wanting to phase away.
'I can't believe she caught me staring at Kurt nonononono not Storm she's like my mother. I wonder if Xavier told her anything and is trying to get her to help me. Damn great I can tell I'm going to get the headache tomorrow. Unless I can avoid her long enough to make a really good excuse, but if I was making that face I usually make then I'm sunk.'
She waited for a distraction to happen so she could leave but people just seemed to have endless questions. While she was answering Jeans' question about tinting hair she saw a potential way out of this mess. She smirked inwardly rushing to finish her sentence.
When she was about to finish she slipped her shoe off under the table and extended her leg under the table feeling for the button underneath. She ran her toe against the Veneer of Padoek, and expensive wood. She found the button and bite her lip smiling. Jean giggled at the thought of the tinting of ones' hair and Kitty seized the opportunity. She pressed the button and the table split in half.
Everyone freaked out and jumped all eyes in the room went to the center of the table were kitty was not. She smiled and phased through the floor. Kurt was the only other person that new exactly what happened and frankly he wasn't as happy as Kitty was. He teleported away.
Kitty ran in her room giggling and kicking off her shoes. She sat down on her bed and sighed slightly. 'I kind of want that chicken now.' She giggled again and began putting her plushies in a bag. 'Almost 19 and I have 300 plushy dolls I think a 9 year old would like theses better.' She slumped. 'Damn that's a decade difference, I'M SO OLD!' she giggled finishing up and putting her plushies in the closet.
She began to change when she heard a knock on her door. She rolled her eyes 'damn I thought I got away should I answer it?' She opened the door figuring she could always make some sort of excuse if they asked her to help clean.
Instead of seeing some annoying kiss ass X-Men trainee she saw him. Her eyes widened quickly and she took a step back. "K-Kurt?" she squeaked. "W-what in the h-hell are you doing here?"
He frowned deeply storming into her room. "I know what you did. The button under the table, yea I'm not stupid we made that button together back in the day." She turned around recalling the events she put her shoes in her closet. She sat on her bed with the angry furry man still standing in her doorway.
She looked up at him into his eyes and her heart fluttered but she did not change her facial expression.
"What do you want from me Kurt, huh?" She continued to look at him as she took her earrings off.
"I want to know why Kitty?" he said calming down. She heard him say her name and her heart skipped a beat.
"Why?"
"Yes, why would you do that? The dinner was for you and everyone is excited to see you again after 4 long years the least you can do is stop faking a smile and think about others for once instead of yourself."
She sat there eyes widened and her earrings fell out of her hand. He had just yelled at her and she was on the verge of crying and screaming she was still deciding which to do. She stood up slowly and walked to the door and slammed it shut. She turned around abruptly getting into his face.
"Stop thinking about me! How can I? All I have to do is watch out for me keep myself from drowning. Out there," she pointed to the door. "Kurt no one cares no one gives a shit if you're hungry! Why the hell am I gonna respect a bitch who doesn't even deserve it! She doesn't want to know about how to tint her freaking hair she just wants to use me and get crap out of me! Fake smile you call it? Well I call it protection so people don't use me again!" she gulped taking a breath still in his face staring in his shocked golden eyes. "Why am I going to be nice to anyone of them for real until they prove I can trust them? There are only 4 people in this house I trust with my life that's you, Xavier, Storm, and Wolverine. That's it! Now if you came here to scold me get out of my room now because I don't need this. This is my home don't stress my out I'm trying to relax for a change."
She took a deep breath in as she returned to her normal height of 5'3. "If you truly cared enough then you would've asked me how 4 years of college went, but sense you're more concerned about others the door is right there leave if you please."She walked past him and put her hair up in a pony tail.
He stared at the floor of where she just was yelling at him. He felt terrible and guilty. He thought about everything she said agreed with most of it besides he was only a year older then her and he didn't have dreams like she did. Then it hit him. He turned around facing her to see her bare back and her head facing down on the back of her neck it looked like a red mark along the Back of her neck.
He reached his three fingers out and touched it. It was bruised skin and the looks of rope burn. He frowned and his hand slid down her spine. "Kitty, what happened to you?"She felt the tingly sensations again.
She frowned. "It's really hard all by yourself in the real life, trying to pay the bills, and feed yourself. I just wanted to pass and it got complicated and I-I just" she sighed feeling Kurt wrap his arms around her.
He whispered. "You don't have to anymore Kitty, you are home now."
She turned around and hugged him pressing all of her into his muscled physique. Feeling her against his fur he enjoyed the hug closing his eyes he rubbed his hand up and down her back realizing she wasn't wearing any top his eyes shot open and he blushed deeply as he felt blood rush below his waist 'Seitzen' he thought trying to find a nice way to get out of the situation and take a nice cold shower. Her awkwardly pulled her off looking at the ceiling. She looked at him smirking glad he couldn't see her face because she was blushing.
They both spoke at the same time and she giggled.
"Go ahead Kurt I know you are just dying to help clean up that mess down stairs." she smiled.
He got up and walked to the door more waddling than anything he mumbled foots asleep and looked slightly back but not enough to see her body or face. "I am going to clean up your mess, just like old times" Within her blink and between her opening her lips to yell at him he was gone. She smiled in the direction of where he was then the smile turned to a smirk. She rolled over sideways thinking about what he came in here to do then her smirk quickly turned into a frown. She was not proud of her behavior tonight but she didn't want to be there so it was time for her to go before she exploded.
She rubbed her hand on the back of her neck squeezing her eyes shut. She shook her head and whispered a solemn no and stared out the window.
"I need to get some sleep, tomorrow is going to be a rough day."
Kitty closed eyes and within moments her dreamer mind was of its own will once again.
