The rest of the school day ended, passing by very quick but Kitty still couldn't stop thinking about Rogue.

Kitty, Sam, Laura and Kurt were waiting outside for Bobby, Jamie, Rahne and hopefully Rogue.
"Sam." Kitty said, looking up at the taller, older mutant. "Do you think Rogue will be ok?"
"She'll be fine." Laura butted in, her voice showing nearly no emotion.
"I just hope she asks for our help soon." Sam said. "Let's not rush her though."
"I vish they vould hurry up." Kurt whined. "I don't vant to have to make two trips."
"lets give them five minutes Kurt." Sam said "After that, lets just go"
"You can, like, go now if you want." Kitty said "But I'm waiting 'till Rahne comes."
"Suit yourself." Laura said "but hurry, we've got a DR session with Scott and Jean." Kurt teleported Himself, Laura and Sam home, leaving behind a small cloud of dark blue smoke where he once stood.
"Kurt can't be good for the environment." Kitty said to herself, giving a little chuckle and wafting the air with one hand and holding her nose with the other.

Bored out of her mutant mind, Kitty kicked a small lump of snow between her feet for a few minutes.
After a while, she picked up some snow in her small, gloved hands and threw it from hand to hand for a few seconds before dropping it to the floor.
"Hurry up, Rahne." She mumbled to herself.
Just then, Kitty heard the door fly open.
Kitty stood up, thinking it was Rahne but saw that it was actually Rogue.

"Rogue." Kitty said, walking over to her friend "Like, have you seen.."
Kitty was interrupted by Rogue as she walked past, pulling her hood up to both keep her warm from the lightly falling snow and to hide her face from Kitty.
"Ah have t' get home." She said coldly, not stopping or turning to look at Kitty. "Ah don't wanna be late for the Danger Room session today."
Kitty ran in front of Rogue and stopped, blocking her path. "Stop." She said "Like, tell me what's been up with you lately."
"Yah'll wouldn't understand." Rogue said, pushing past Kitty.
"Tell me." Kitty said, worried for her best friend. "It'll help, like, trust me."
"Ok." Rogue said "Ah'll tell ya." The two girls sat back down where Kitty was before. "Yah'll know how ah can't touch nobody cuz of mah powers?" Rogue asked. "Yeah.." Kitty answered.
"Just to be clear." Rogue said. " Ah'm very happy for you an' Rahne."
"Rogue, like, whats this about?" Kitty asked.
"You two got meh thinkin' bout the future." Rogue said, now looking down at the ground.
"Ah wanna have a relationship at least once!" Rogue said, raising her voice, fighting back a waterfall of tears in her eyes. "Is that so hard?"
"C'mon, Rogue." Kitty said, reassuringly. "It'll, like, be ok. I promise."
"No, its Not!" Rogue shouted "Do you know how painful it is not being able to get close to someone, Kitty?" Everybody is gonna grow up, have ah relationship 'nd a family and im just gonna live and die alone!"
Rogue began to sob quietly. "Ah guess Ah'm just afraid o' dahing alone." She said, sadly.
"Come here." Kitty said, placing Rogue's head on her shoulder and putting an arm around her vampiric-skinned best friend, letting her sob into her shoulder. "Like, it's ok."
Kitty looked down at her green-clad best friend. "Anna-Marie Carlyle, I promise to find a way to help you be able to touch but still use your powers and help the X-Men." (Author's Note: Yes, I did just use her last name from the Ultimate comics)
"Really?" Rogue asked, sitting up and looking at her best friend and wiping tears from her cheeks with her pale gloved hands. "You'd do that for meh?"
Like, of course I would Rogue. You're, like, my best friend." Kitty said. "I don't know how but I'll, like, find a way."
"I'll, like, help Beast in his lab. I'll work as hard as I can for, like, as long as I can, I promise you right now."

"Hey, girls." Bobby said as he and Jamie walked up to Kitty and Rogue. "Rahne's gonna be out in a second and I called Kurt and asked him to pick us up in a few."
"And I'm also here." Jamie added.
There was an awkward silence for the next 20 seconds.
"Uh...ok..." Was all Rogue could say.
"Jamie, you just took the mood and stabbed it straight through heart." Bobby said. "Literally."
"Hey" Rahne's voice came from behind them. "It looks like I missed something that was either hilarious or just ...not."
"Let's just say "not" and leave it at that." Rogue said.
"Rahne!" Kitty shouted and hugged Rahne.
"Kitty!" Rahne shouted back and hugged the smaller girl back, kissing her on the cheek.

Bobby picked up his phone and rang the institute.
He waited until somebody picked up one of the institute's many phones until a female voice answered.
"Hello?" He asked "Who is this?"
"Bobby, its me, Amara." Amara said "If I can recognise your voice why can't you recognise mine."
"Oh hey, Amara, I don't know but could you tell Kurt to come and pick us up?"
"Ok, just give me a second, Bobby." Amara said.
Bobby heard Amara run off in search of Kurt. "Hey Kurt?" Bobby heard Amara ask.
"Vhat is eet? I vas just about to eat zis sandvich." Kurt said and Bobby assumed they were in the kitchen.
"Um, Bobby wants you to go get them now." Amara said shyly.
Bobby noticed that she had gotten much more shy and nervous since Apocalypse and even more so since Tabitha left.
"Tell him i'll be there after I eat this sandvich." Kurt said and Bobby heard Amara walk out the room.
"Did you hear him?" Amara asked.
"Yup." Bobby said. "It's ok though, we can wait."
"Are you sure?" Amara asked. "It was a pretty big sandwich and he had two of them."
"I'm sure." Bobby said "We'll see you in a bit."
"Bye." Amara said and hung up the phone.
"Who were you talking to?" Rahne asked.
"Amara. She seemed a little sad about something." Bobby replied Kurt's coming in a few minutes. He's eating two giant sandwichs, apparently."
"Like, nobody stops Kurt when it comes to food." Kitty said.
"He'll pull a knife out on you, I swear." Jamie said. "What? Has that only happened to me?"
The group heard a BAMF! and Kurt appeared in front of them. "All aboard!" He shouted and everybody grabbed on.
The group arrived outside the Xavier Institute almost instantly.
