Chapter 4
This is great. My ex and my could-be crush in the same area. "Kurt." Both boys were glaring at each other menacingly. Before a fight could break out I cut in.
"So hows the past five hours been with out me Lance? Didn't you know this was going to happen?" I was being rather bitchy but Lance was getting what had been coming to him. "You know us breaking up because you were jealous of my family and yes I'm talking about the X-MEN." I was glaring at him fighting back tears. Stupid bastard. His face softened.
"Kitty. I didn't mean it. I just thought you were ditching me." Kurt was being awfully quiet. Which sort of made me uneasy.
"So now you can't trust me?" Lance looked taken aback. The big doof tried to open his mouth but I beat him to it. "You've been doing this for weeks. Trying to get me to break. Make me worship you and forget about my family just 'cause you can't trust me, but you know that won't happen and it never will. Good bye Lance." I walked away and marched towards the party Fuzz ball at my side. I was surprised to see him smiling. "What? You think me and Lance fighting is funny?" Kurt shook his head.
"Kitty I would never think that was funny." He snorted. "It's just did you see the look on his face?" I thought about it and then started laughing. He looked just like a member of The Brotherhood and it was funny because they're all idiots. Every last one of them. Wanda's crazy, she's The Scarlet Witch, The Blob is just a big goofy goon, Quick Silver or whatever is just a dork, Toad is just a creep and Lance or Avalanche is just a big ignoramus! I mean the look on his face was embarrassingly stupid! The stupid ass stood there looking at me all shocked. Eyes wide, and jaw almost touching the floor. I'm surprised he wasn't drooling I mean come on! I can't believe that I used to call that idiotic prick my boyfriend!
Wow, glad I got that out. Back to the story.
"Yeah you're right that was actually pretty funny." I said after we entered the party. The room was dark with a disco ball hanging from the ceiling. Yup this definitely was Duncan's party. Orange and black streamers galore. Complete with fake bats, and spiders suspended from fishing line that was taped to the ceiling. To go along with that the dark room was clouded with fake fog, and fake tombstones , it gave the room a ghastly look to it. "Cool party. The music isn't that bad either." I started dancing and Kurt joined in. A few minutes later the music stopped and so did we.
It was Duncan. Everyone turned to look at him. "Is this a kick ass party or what?" He was speaking through a small black microphone. The crowd roared in response. Everyone except for Scott was having fun. Poor guy.
All of us institute kids, except for Jean who was to busy kissing up to Duncan, were all crowded into one corner staring at that jerk Jean calls her boyfriend. I swear we only came for her. I don't think any of us would have showed up if Jean wasn't his girlfriend.
Kurt's P.O.V
I don't know what Jean see's in that dude. He's such a . . . . Cool a snack bar!
Back to Kitty
Kurt headed to the snack bar and not long after that I noticed Rogue standing in the opposite corner staring into space. I sighed reasoning with myself should I go talk to her or let her be? Unfortunately I have a conscious. You better go and talk to her. My conscious said. She looks more depressed than usual. I sighed and walked silently towards Rogue. Tonight she was clad in all black, and had skin so pale it stood out in the darkness. Rogue was leaning against the wall, arms folded across her chest, with her head down.
"What do you want?" she asked in her heavy Louisianian accent as I approached. "Can't you tell I'm an out cast, a pariah?" The whole time she talked her head was down, with her hair hiding her white face. "So go away."
I took a deep breath I wont let her push me out like that and I sure as hell am not going to let her do this to her self. I'm not going to be the old Kitty who sits around and let's everyone deal with all of the bull shit going on in their lives by them selves. I'm going to be stronger and more caring from now on. "No. No I won't." I looked at her willing her to look at me. It worked. "Tell me why you do this to your self." To my surprise she laughed.
"You don't get do you." she stopped leaning on the wall, stood up straight and got in my face making sure she kept her distance. "I can't get close to people. I'll only hurt them. Do you get? Can you hear me or do you need me too use sign language?" With a flick of the wrist to prove her point she turned around. "See ya Kitty." The old Kitty would have let her walk away. Not this new Kitty. I was going to prove it to myself and the world.
"I do get it. I'm not asking you to go around and hug people like a crazy person." She turned and looked back at me, Rogue looked like she might actually listen. "I'm trying to get you to open up. Talk to people. Be out going. I know how you hide because you think that what ever you do you'll hurt someone, but you won't." I paused once more to see her face grow shocked at my outburst. "Just consider it." Then I walked away.
Later I was sitting on a sofa next to Kurt. The party is okay but. . . it kinda gets boring after the first two hours. We were now into our third hour of partying and I was feeling a little sick. I needed to go out side. "I'm gonna go outside for a second."
"Are you feeling okay Kitty?" I nodded and turned around heading for Duncan's balcony. When I got outside I walked over to the end of the high balcony. Looking out over the water of the pond below me I saw familiar reflection in the water.
"What. Do. You. Want." I growled at Lance with out turning around.
"I want to make up." I whirled around and glared at him. Was he serious? Did he think that I was really going to go back to him after he had ripped my heart out and put it in a blender set on high? Well, if that's what he thinks he can go die!
"Well I don't! I hate you Lance! You-you bastard!" I threw my hands up in exasperation! "Just go away and leave me alone." I was about to go back inside when he grabbed my wrist and yanked me towards him.
"Take that back Pride." Fazing my wrist through his hand I pulled my hand away and raised it ready to slap him, but something blue and fury jumped in front of me. "Argh!" Lance rose slowly from the ground. Blood was dripping from his lip where Kurt had punched him. Slowly he wiped it away. "Wrong move you Blue Freak." The he started an Earth quake. . .
Dun dun dun! What will happen next? Sorry this one so long!
