A/N: I made everything better. Kinda…idk. Just R&R please!

Disclaimer: I own nothing but KM & the plot, although I think it would be wonderful to own Megamind, I mean, if you're reading this you probably wouldn't mind owning him either, right?

Chapter 10

"Megamind? Kaitlin? What are you guys doing here?" Roxanne asked when she opened the door to her apartment.

Megamind's solid blank expression gave no hints as he said flatly, "Can we come in?"

"Um…you're not going to kidnap me, are you?" She asked with a hint of amusement in her voice.

The villain shook his head silently as she moved to the side to let them in. "We came to talk."

"Oh…do you want anything to drink or…" Roxanne trailed off uncertainly as the pair made their way over to her couch.

Megamind shrugged. "Kaitlin?"

The teen shook her head, sitting on the couch and trying to ignore the overwhelmed tears that were welling up behind her eyes. The blue-skinned villain sat beside her. "No thank you." He said as Roxanne sat in the arm chair across from them.

"So. What do you want to talk about?" The reporter asked, preparing herself for any questions they might shoot her way.

Megamind took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts and steepling his fingers. "What would you do if you loved someone but your best friend hated her and you had to choose between them who to stay with?"

Roxanne stared at him, mouth agape. "What?"

"Minion…hates me." Kaitlin choked out, wiping her sleeve across her face to dry the tears pricking at her eyes.

Megamind immediately put his arm around her shoulders and tugged her closer. When he realized what he'd done, he groaned. "I don't want to have to pick one or the other! I love them both…" He exclaimed exasperatedly.

"Well…couldn't you just work it out?" Roxanne prompted hesitantly.

"Me and Minion got into a fight this morning…like, a really bad fight. We've never fought like that before…" Megamind trailed off, staring off into space blankly.

"It's all my fault." Kaitlin mumbled into the villain's shoulder.

"No it's not! I…it's my fault. I've told you that already." Megamind gently began to stroke her hair, letting Kaitlin wrap her arms around his waist and nuzzle closer for comfort.

Roxanne smiled at the pair, arguing over whose fault it was they were in love. "It's both of yours fault." She interjected.

Megamind glanced up from his staring blankly into space. "Yeah…I guess you're right." He sighed heavily. "I just…I don't know what to do…"

Roxanne smiled comfortingly. "Well, sorry to break it to you, but Mark already told a bunch of people about you guys as an item."

Megamind and Kaitlin moaned in synch. "I hate Metroman!" Kaitlin complained.

"Sorry." Roxanne repeated.

"What're we going to do?" Megamind asked.

Roxanne's blue eyes suddenly lit up. "You could just go out with it, and say she's a supervillain too!" She exclaimed.

The pair before her stared blankly. "I…I guess that might work." Kaitlin said doubtfully.

Megamind offered her a curt nod. "Hmm…I think it might."

"Okay, good!" Roxanne clapped her hands together like an excited school girl as the pair exchanged skeptical glances. "I'll make the announcement when…"

The reporter glanced at the clock, than jumped to her feet. "I'm late! C'mon you guys, let's go! You're coming with me to the station." Roxanne grabbed her jacket and opened the door, holding it open for them as they walked past.

"What about the invisible car?" Kaitlin sniffled, using the hem of Megamind's cape to dry her face.

The villain looked confused for a minute as the girl tugged backwards, holding him in place so she could use his cape as a tissue. Then he sighed and put his hands on his hips with an exasperated sigh.

"Kaitlin…" He whined as they moved down the hallway towards the elevator.

"What?" She asked defensively, wrapping herself around his arm and hugging the limb as Roxanne hit the first floor cal button. "It was the only thing I had."

Roxanne smirked as Megamind ignored her clinging and inspected his cape. "It's all wet!" He complained. "Geez Louise…"

Both Kaitlin and Roxanne snickered. "You're so silly." Kaitlin said lovingly, looking up at him through her eyelashes.

The villain sighed dramatically and rolled his eyes, the whoosh of the elevator doors sliding open ruining the moment. They threesome stepped out of the elevator, and screams rang out from the patrons in the lobby.

Carlos, the doorman shrieked like a young girl, "Someone call Metroman!"

Another person interjected, "Miss Ritchi's being kidnapped!"

Kaitlin let go of Megamind's arm and stepped away from him, and luckily it seemed like no one had noticed their closeness. "Hey! They're not kidnapping me!" Roxanne shouted above the racket. "They're doing another interview with me, geez!"

"Yeah!" Megamind agreed. "So stop freaking out!"

Kaitlin couldn't help but giggle at the villain's indignant look. "Yeah, people! Calm down! You're all like scared rabbits!"

Megamind snorted as they walked out the doors and towards Roxanne's Honda. "Rabbits?"

"It's just an expression. It's not literal." She explained quickly to the confused and amused blue-skinned baddie.

"Oh."

Roxanne suddenly realized how little Megamind knew about society. "You didn't know that?" She asked incredulously.

He shrugged. "No. It's human." He said it as if was nothing as he held the passenger door open for Kaitlin. "I'll sit in back." He said.

"What do you mean it's human? You've lived here your entire life!" Roxanne cried, face palming.

Megamind shut the back door as the reporter started the engine. "Well, I've never had anyone teach me before…" He said with a sad tone to his voice.

"Oh…" Roxanne passed, feeling stupid for bringing the subject up. "I'm…sorry. I didn't know. I mean, I knew, but-"

"I know. It's just…the first person that's ever seen me for who I really am is Kaitlin. She actually took the time getting to know me instead of ignoring me or mocking me because I'm different." Megamind thoughtlessly poured a little bit of his soul out.

"I…I'm sorry. I never looked at it that way. I just assumed you liked being evil…" Roxanne said hesitantly as they pulled into traffic and began the short drive across the city.

"Everyone does." Kaitlin said blankly. "Except me. Because I'm different too. I've always been a loner, like him."

"You guys…I never thought…" Roxanne looked at Megamind through the rearview mirror. "No one ever knew…"

Megamind cracked a smile. "Except Kaitlin." He said, and the reporter in her immediately recognized the adoration in his voice.

Kaitlin turned in her seat and smiled back at him. "Because I'm the only one stubborn enough to want to stay with you and be your assistant."

Megamind laughed then, much to Roxanne's total shock. It was a happy, loving, clear sound that just sounded good. Not like his evil laughs, the fake malicious cackles he'd perfected over his years being the bad guy.

Kaitlin grinned, the sound of his laugh music to her ears. "And stand up to you in the first place."

Megamind's jade eyes sparkled in a pleased manner, a genuine smile lighting up his face. "Besides Roxanne, you're the only one who's ever said anything besides 'omg it's Megamind, scream and run away, ahhhh'!" The villain mocked.

Roxanne couldn't help but giggle at his antics. "Aren't you forgetting Mark?" She asked playfully.

"Meh." Megamind grunted noncommittally. "He doesn't count; it's in his job description."

Roxanne and Kaitlin snorted with laughter. "You're funny!" Roxanne chuckled before she realized what she was saying.

"Really? You think?" Megamind asked eagerly.

"Well, you see me laughing, don't you?" She retorted, shooting him a grin as they pulled into her station's parking lot.
