Chapter Seven:
Rogue
"Now is the time for precaution,soon it will be too late"
They had all re-boarded the plane, Remy taking the empty seat next to Rogue and putting Kaitlyn in his lap. Kitty, Piotr, John and Wanda sat as far from the family as possible. Kitty was trying to be as small as possible and had sat next to Piotr and behind John to go unnoticed. Wanda was sitting next to John, with a bored expression on her face. John too was bored, but Wanda had thought to take his lighters,promising to give them back when they got home. Xavier looked curiously at them as they boarded. All of them looked to one degree or another, like they'd just gone through a battle. But the fighting had been over before the four of them had gotten in the would be sure to ask them when they got home. After he finished his puzzle. and his tea. He wishes he'd thought to bring his tea.
Logan was wondering about the level of quiet that the 'kids' were using. They were never quiet unless they were up to something... or hiding something. He was going to talk to them when they got home. After he finished his presentation for Charles. Because the Giant was sitting way to close to the midget. So was that boy;that boy was sitting way to close to Stripes...and whispering something to her. In a tone to low for him to hear...maybe he should talk to her first... NO! no because that other boy just kissed that girl that was Stripes friend! This. can. not. happen. Who cares if those two don't live with them. The same rules apply. He knows. He saw the chart. If they have one, that's just one step closer to the baby apocalypse The charts must be respected! Now is the time for precaution,soon it will be too late.
Wanda didn't really understand why Kitty had flipped out like that. But the people at the institute always seemed to be freaking out over something. How could Rogue stand to live there? They were all high-strung. Just look around and you know it. There was Kitty nervously biting her nails and glancing between Rogue and Piotr. Then there was the Professor, he was clearly intoxicated, and humming to himself. Rogue herself seemed fine, smiling at Remy and Kaitlyn. But Logan.. If he held throttle any harder it would break. And why did he keep looking back at her in the mirror?
John was bored again. Completely bored. Wanda had his lighters. He didn't start that fire earlier! Or at least he doesn't think he did. Wanda had let him kiss her cheek when they got on board, but now she was ignoring him. And he was bored. Who cares why these people are acting all weird and twitchy. They're always twitchy. At least as far as he can tell. Every time he tries to talk to any of them they get like this. Maybe he could talk her into giving him back just the small one?
Kitty was biting her nails staring at Rogue and Poitr. She didn't know who she wanted to watch more. Poitr was really interesting and she could admit to herself but no one else (ever) that she had a slight, teeny tiny...okay massive crush on him. And he was right here next to her! She should be completely excited. But then there was Rogue...Rogue was scary today. Scarier than usual. First there was the plane. That was terrifying Kitty hadn't been that scared in months. It was awful. There was also that thing this morning at breakfast. Where Jamie had accidentally spilled his milk on Rogue. And ran, of course. Come to think of it someone should probably go get him out of his hiding tree. But the scary part was she just laughed. Someone spilled on her. and she laughed. Rogue. Then There was the whole cabin thing... but Kitty didn't want to think about it.
Poitr didn't really notice Kitty's glances or Wanda's staring. Because he was wondering if Remy was going to kill him. For telling Rogue. Because even if she wasn't mad,he still would be. And Poitr couldn't tell if she was mad. You kn ow Russia wasn't really all that bad. Now that he thought about it, he couldn't remember why he decided to stay. Oh that's right now he remembers. Because Remy was stalking Rogue,um I mean dating Rogue. And Rogue hang out with Kitty. And he had a crush on Kitty. But he didn't know if she liked him. And most of the time he can't remember her name. ... in fact he's pretty sure he just learned her name. But still. On the other hand, Russia really isn't that bad.
They finally arrived at the institute Everyone was getting off the plane, Logan still wondering what had gotten into all of them and wondering if he could finish his talk with Charles before he gets to drunk. Wanda leads John away,promising him a whole stack of firewood at the Brotherhood house. Xavier, still humming to himself went off in the direction of his office. As Logan was about to follow him he heard Kitty behind him " That right there. That's what I was talking about. It's ,like, the scariest thing I've,like, ever seen" He turns around to see what she's on about... And screams, screams like Kurt. He screams like Kurt on a sugar rush. Like Kurt on a sugar rush with his tail closed in a car door ( it has happened... four times). Because there right before him, for the whole world to see , was his worst nightmare come to life.. Remy. Kissing. Rogue. Remy kissing Rogue and not passing out. Now he understands why Kitty was so scared. Because THAT BOY was kissing his Stripes. This could not happen. Because kissing led to other things... things that lead to babies... and babies were dangerous. Far, far more dangerous than anything else he'd ever had to face... And he knew Sabertooth AND Deadpool.
He needed to talk to Charles now! . Before he was drinking his 'tea' . Remy and Rogue stare after the retreating Logan. Everyone else soon follows. "...and that's why I didn't tell them when I gained control last week." Rogue states.
