I knocked on Kitty's door and heard her scream go away. "Kitty, it's me Alice. Can I come in please?" I asked politely. "Oh it's you, yeah come on in." she replied with a sniff. When I got in I saw her lying flat on her bed with her face on the pillow. I sighed and sat next beside her and gave her a pat on the back just to cheer her up. "I can't believe Kurt would bring up something like that. ESPECIALLY IN FRONT OF PIETRO! Like, now Pietro's going to tell Lance about how the X-Men are such jerks toward them, including me." Kitty said while her tears started to fall. "Shh, everything is going to be alright Kitty. I don't think Pietro would say such thing. He's a really nice guy." I replied with a smile.

She sat up from bed and faced me, "You really think I'm not such a bad person after I broke up with my ex-boyfriend Lance?" she asked. "Well I can't say yes, I mean, why did you break up with him in the first place?" I asked in return. She sniffed again, "Well, ever since this other mutant guy Bobby came and joined the X-Men. He started having interest in me and everyone kept pushing me and him about how we were perfect for each other. So I tried it out. I wanted to see if being us together would make me feel any butterflies, but I didn't feel any of that." She choked and started to cough, so I had to pat her back. "Alright continue." She cleared her throat and continued, "This was something I thought was private between us X-Men. Then Bobby had to show off to everyone that he was dating me."

I nodded. "Lance heard about it and was completely broken. He didn't hurt me or Bobby though. He just got over it and continued on. I wanted to tell him the truth but when I was about to, I heard his conversation with his friends that I'm only the past." Her eyes started to look watery as she said the last sentence, "he said, he's going to start finding that special girl and knows that she'll was never meant to be me." Tears sprang down her face as she started to sob once again. "Shh, it's not your fault Kitty." I told her, which was a total lie. "NO IT'S NOT! I'm such an idiot for being with Bobby and not thinking about Lance's feelings!"

I sighed and heard a knock on the door, "Kitty? Can I come in?" it sounded like Kurt and from the sound of his voice we knew he was nervous. "What do you want?" Kitty spat. "I came to apologize." He replied. I looked back at Kitty and gave her one last smile, "Hear him out Kitty, who knows? Lance might open up the door and let you in to explain how much you're sorry." She looked up at me with a crooked smile. "Well, what I'm trying to say is, what goes around comes around." I stood up and started walking to the door. "She's waiting for you," I told Kurt as I was on my way out to the hall. "Oh Alice?" he called out. "Yes?" I replied. "I'm sorry for being shock back there when I heard that you were a mutant." He apologized. "It's alright Kurt." I replied with a smile. He reached out his hand and shook mine "Welcome to the X-Men."
