Genre: Angst, & Romance. Hurt/Comfort as well.

Length: 651 words.

Pairing: Piotr(Peter)/Kitty.

Rating: Pg.

Summary: Piotr is sick of being unneeded, and craves more than he gets. Is it wrong for him to want more though?

Author's Note: I've noticed that both in the movie, and comics that Peter/Piotr isn't as important or noticed. I felt sorry for the guy, and also felt that he really suited this sin the most, because when you have nothing, you always want more.

Special Memo: To all my readers, thank you very much for reviewing, I'm glad you enjoy the series, since it was a spur-of-the-moment kind of thing. I'm grateful to all your reviews. And if you'd like, you can request some pairings if you'd like. Though I warn you that they will take some time, as I'm busy writing original stories, and updating my other fandoms. Thank you for your time!

Greed ate people up, Pete knew that. The desire to be noticed only grew within him every day. He didn't think it was greedy of him to want attention, to be important to the team. 'Was it wrong?' he wondered, 'To want to belong, is it a crime?' The feelings of sadness refuse to leave him, and he knows it, because of his fight with Kitty earlier that day, it wasn't his fault, but apparently it's always his fault. He wishes he was more important to the team, he wishes he could become a source of comfort like Wolverine was, he wishes he could be important as Scott or Ororo, he wishes he could lead the team.

But Peter, or rather Piotr isn't anything but a soldier, only used for attacking, or defense, and nothing else. Ororo may have been always kind to him, Jean as well, but they didn't understand. He wanted to be worth something. He wanted to be valuable, an asset to the team instead of being something disposable. It wasn't greedy of him to want more, but still he craved to be something important.

'Was it odd?' he sometimes thought, and told himself "Of course not", everyone wanted to feel like they were worth something, and even if they weren't, the feeling was comforting at times.

Piotr sighed as he knocked on Kitty's door, he was going to apologize to Kitty, because it was his fault, according to Kitty anyway. And when the door opens, Peter is surprised to find himself being hugged by Kitty. He was going to ask her if she was fine, but she began sobbing, as tears slipped past her pretty hazel eyes.

"I am so sorry Peter, it's not your fault at all, sorry for yelling at you, its just that I feel so frustrated with myself at times" she begins nervous or anxious -Peter isn't sure which-, and whatever she might have said becomes a mumble that he can't help but overhear "and the fact that I may have my period may be why I yelled at you…" and Piotr laughs softly. Kitty is sometimes so sweet and childish that he can't help but wrap his arms around her, and lift her, slowly twirling her around.

He presses his temple to hers, before telling her softly "My dear Kitty, why would someone as wonderful as you, feel frustrated with herself?" and then Kitty begins to babble about how her powers weren't useful in dangerous missions, and how Piotr always protected her, she was no good in defense or offense, she couldn't protect anyone or hurt anyone, "it's kind of sad", she admits in a heartbeat.

And Peter smiles at her, before kissing her chastely, and telling her "You are not useless Kitty, you've made me smile, and every day seeing you smile is what makes me happy, you may not be good at offense or defense, but you're good at stealth, you are useful, and you're needed very much, because I love you, and nothing else matters".

Kitty only blushes, before murmuring something "Aww~ thank you, you gorgeous hunk; come here and give me a kiss~" before grapping the edge of his shirt, and yanking him closer. The kiss is heated, and passionate, and full of love that Peter can't help but want more of Kitty.

He thinks he may be greedy, but in this world, where humans have uglier sides more than beautiful ones, Peter cannot help but want more of Kitty's beautiful one, because with Kitty in his arms, nothing mattered, and nothing hurt Peter. He supposes that wanting too much of happiness was wrong, but with Kitty so close, all he wants is more, and he doesn't give a damn if he's being a greedy bastard -he was entitled to that after she accepted his proposal, 2 months ago…

Better to want more love, than less, right?
