Dance on, Kietro, Dance on
By: XMENobsession (HeeHee, that's me!)
AN: Thank you sooooo much to the two people who reviewed: rose and kietrolvr1! You are now my 2 favorite people in the world! Yes, this is going to be a Kietro story. I love Kietro, and they're really fun to write about because they hate each other. So far it has been about Kitty and Pietro seperately (except for the very beginning) but I promise that they'll talk to each other in the next chapter. Read this one and try to figure out why! REVIEW!
DISCLAIMER: I don't own the X-Men or anything related to them. I am merely a fan. A very big fan, but a fan nonetheless. If I had the money, I'd buy Marvel comics and I'd make them make more X-Men evolution shows and put Kitty and Pietro together. But sadly, I can't. (
Chapter 2
"I'm Not Crazy!"
The bell rang to signify the end of the school day, and Kurt Wagner raced down the hall to his friend's locker.
"What's with you?" Rogue asked him, seeing that he was having a very hard time containing his excitement.
"Today Kitty and I are going to our first dance lessons!"
"Oh, right. Kitty told me about that. Why do ya wanna enter that competition anyway?"
"Vell..." Kurt looked embaressed.
"Ah, c'mon, blue-boy! Ya'll can tell me," Rogue said, grabbing her bookbag and closing her locker.
Kurt looked down at his feet and said, "Zhe 3rd place prize is a gift certificate to Uncle Bill's Burger Hut." He looked up with a very serious look on his face. "It vill be mine!"
Rogue laughed. Kurt was a comedian, but he never joked when it came to food.
"Oh, is that why you chose me for your partner? You think I'm only capable of winning 3rd place?" Kitty joked as she walked up to her two friends.
Kurt shook his head fervently. "No, no, no! I think zhat you are capable of winning 1st place, but paired vith me you're only 3rd best." His cheeks turned pink as Kitty and Rogue tried to stifle a laugh.
Then Rogue said good-bye to the dance partners and went to meet the other X-Men at Scott's car as Kurt excitedly grabbed Kitty's arm and pulled her down the hallway toward the gymnasium, where the dance lessons were being held.
Across the hall from where the three X-Men had just been standing was Lance Alvers and his fellow Brotherhood member, Pietro Maximoff. Lance closed his locker and Pietro, who was leaning against the other lockers, said, "Finally, we can go home." He started to walk away, but quickly noticed that the rock-tumbler wasn't with him. "Are you coming?"
Lance ingnored him and asked, "Did you hear that?"
For about a second Pietro actually listened...then he lost interest. "C'mon, I wanna go home!"
Lance just kept staring at the corner that Kitty and Kurt had just turned. "Kitty...she's going to some sort of 'lessons' with the elf. I couldn'y really hear, you were complaining in my ear too much."
Pietro decided to let that one go and stared down hallway as well. He didn't see anyone. He raised an eyebrow as he turned to his friend. "Seriously, you need to seek proffesional help."
Instead of arguing with the speed demon, Lance simply grabbed his arm and started pulling him toward the direction Kitty had gone.
"Hey! Whatdoyouthinkyou'redoing!"
"We're going to an...extracurricular activity."
"What about Freddy and Todd? You're their ride home."
Lance stopped. "Oh yeah..." He looked around the desrted hallway. "Where are they anyway?"
Pietro shrugged.
"Well," Lance said. "I told them that if they were late to meet me one more time, I wasn't driving them home. So, I guess they're walking." He turned to walk away. "C'mon, let's go!"
Pietro crossed his arms over his chest and said defiantly, "No way! Not until you tell me where we're going."
"If I did that..." Lance held out his hand and shook the earth underneath the speed demon's feet. "It wouldn't be a surprise!" Pietro fell flat on his rear end and Lance grabbed the back of his shirt and dragged him away.
Meanwhile...
At Lance's Jeep stood Freddy Dukes (The Blob) and his freshman friend Todd Tolensky (Toad). Todd looked at his watch. They had been waiting there for almost 20 minutes. "Where are they, yo?"
Freddy just shrugged.
Kitty and Kurt entered the gymnasium. There were only about 10 other people there and on a stool near the far wall was a stereo. They didn't see an instructor of any sort so they figured that class hadn't started yet and began to wander around the room.
For the first time since Kurt had heard about this dance competition, he looked nervous. "Don't worry," Kitty told him. "I'm here with you." Kurt gave a weak smile. "I know, it's just...I really can't dance!"
"That's why we're here, remember?"
Kurt nodded and scanned the room. "Amanda?" His face brightened up when he saw the girl he'd had a crush on for months. Amanda turned away from talking to her friend and smiled at him.
"Hi, Kurt! What are you doing here?"
"Taking dance lessons, vhat else?" He gave Kitty a slight push to tell her to get lost while he talked to Amanda. She got the hint and made a very smooth exit. "I've got to go...somewhere else." She side-stepped away and began to search for someone else to talk to.
Lance and Pietro abruptly stopped in front of the gym doors. There was a sign next to them.
" 'Dance Lessons' ?" Lance read out loud.
"What was that?" Pietro wasn't really listening but he thought he heard two words he really didn't like.
"Uh...I said...'chance messons'?...Yeah, Chance Messons. He was a friend of mine back at my old school." With a speed that Quicksilver would admire, he turned the sign around before Pietro could read it.
"What made you think of him?" the speed demon asked.
"Um..." Lance's hand was on the door, ready to enter the room. "I...I always think of him whenever I see a door." He began to stroke the door to emphasize his lie. Pietro just stared at him. "I'm not crazy!"
Pietro raised his hands in defense. "Never said you were, Lancey." Lance walked through the door and he added. "Definatly thought it, though."
AN: Okay, I'm actually pretty happy with this chapter. I try to make it funny, but sometimes I really fail. But there is no reason to be mean to the humorously handicapped! Just review their stories!
