o [Kitty's Dorm]
"I'm glad I caught them, though." Bobby Drake faked a slight smirk, his heart burning in the terrible letdown. Kitty Pryde nodded and gave him a little warm smile, trying to search for words to put up a sentence.
Bobby already had his shower - now topless with black pajama-pants. This made Kitty blush all the time, staring down at his smooth chest whenever he wasn't looking. He decided to spend this night with her - not in the wrong way, though. He just needed a friend to talk to. He felt so lonely and... betrayed.
He should've known about it a long time ago. He'd suspected Marie since the last few weeks for she was always gone in the dead of night - leaving him to wonder where she was every nightfall. And Remy - Bobby's heart crushed at the name. Remy was the only person who Marie could touch when she didn't took the cure but Bobby was too innocent to ever think about her, cheating.
Bobby shifted in his position and rested his head on his right hand - he wasn't aware that he was staring down at his best friend with an expressionless face. His impassive face always made Kitty's cheeks turned scarlet - it was sexy. Fortunately the room was sable, hiding her rosy colored gills. Kitty turned away to the side to face the window - the glittering moon was accompanied by the sparkling stars.
o [12:00 AM]
He couldn't sleep.
The clock ticked to strike the witching hour and he still couldn't catch forty winks. He kept looking fixedly at the cute teenager in his arms. She was really beautiful. Her skin was so delicate that it reminded him of the silk. He twirled some of her slightly-curled brunette hair in his index finger as his bright-blue eyes slowly gazed down at her uncovered legs - her teasing legs.
He bit his own bottom lip then blushed, violently as naughty thoughts crossed his mind.
Bobby hoped he won't get a wet-dream, tonight.
o [The Following Morning]
She woke up to find out that an icy hand was slipped under her violet top. She slowly pulled the hand out with a shiver, running down her spine. What on earth was Bobby's hand doing under her top? Vermilion splashed Kitty's cheeks even more when she saw his arm locked tightly around her waist.
She phased through the arm and rose to her feet. Snatching her towel, she opened the door and walked down the stairs, heading toward the bathroom.

o [The Lab]
"The cure will remove your powers and your superhuman skills."
Professor Xavier explained as he held up a small bottle, containing light cerulean colored liquid. "But.", he paused, dramatically. "Some aren't permanent.", he said as he lifted a brow. He situated another small bottle - with transparent water - on the lab-table and placed both of his hands on the table. "You see, my students. These kind of remedies are produced by the pharmaceutical company, the Worthington Labs, to cure our mutations and some experimented cures failed."
He waved at the cerulean liquid. "Cerulean liquid is not the permanent cure while this", he waved at the other bottle. "Is definitely yes." He inhaled and exhaled before continuing, "However, homo superiors are endangered. In the whole universe, there are only a few of us left." Pause. "This means we need to travel around the universe to find mutants."
"And we recruit them."

o [Bobby's Dorm]
She helped him to fold the clothes and arrange them in the bag, neatly.
"I can't believe we're going to Verona, it'll be amazing.", she smiled at the thought. "Especially when it's the main location in Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet.", she giggled. "Romantic, don't you think?", she asked. "'Course, Romeo & Juliet.", he chuckled. "I wonder if we're gonna share rooms...", he muttered to himself but it was loud enough for Kitty to hear. "I don't think so. You know a boy and a girl in a room is a no.", she shrugged and zipped the bag.
"Thank you, my Queen.", he winked as he took the bag. "No problem.", her cheeks became red. Darn, why did she have to blush? He was only joking.
But really, he's not.
