This updates a bit earlier than usual because im busy this weekend and i won't have time to update! so BLAH!

So heres a little present for you all :)


I fall into an uneasy sleep that night. Every time my eyes closed, I would be falling. It was freaking scary! In the end, I curled up in Pietro's bed. Let's just say, he was more than excited to see me.

The next morning, I phase out of his arms and teleport to room. There was no way I was going to explain this one to everyone, especially after the last time…

I pull on the dressing gown and make my way downstairs. As soon as I enter the kitchen, Wanda gives me the evils. I roll my eyes. My gaze slowly goes over to the blond in a "can't touch this" tee-shirt and jean short shorts. She gives me a lazy smile.

"Welcome to the dark side, me girl. Welcome to the dark side." She stands up and pulls me into a long hug.

"I've been wondering when you'd turn up Tab" she smiles at me as she pulls away, sitting back down on the chair.

"Eh, things to do, people to see…" she grins again, this time it's more mischievous. "Speaking of which, how d'ya get the boys in shape?" her head flings back in the direction of Toad doing the morning dishes. He's muttering something under his breath, but I simply couldn't care.

"Don't know what you're talking about Tab? One of them still reeks like shit." My gaze stays on Toads back. I watch as he freezes for a moment. "If only I could get him to wash…" I can feel the hate radiating from him, but he doesn't say anything. Slowly, Toad moves the dish that he'd been washing to the pile of clean dishes. Tabitha lets out a chuckle. No sound can ever compare to Tabitha's laugh. It's an incredible sound, something that shouldn't be on this earth, but some how ended up in a petit blonde who's crazy as fuck.

"Girl, you crack me up. No one, and I mean NO ONE, can make the Toad wash" she burst out laughing. Toad put the final dish on the pile and stormed out the room. I heard one word. "bitch." It cracked me up. I joined Tabitha in the laughing, even sharing a high five in the process.

"If you hadn't had stole my room, I may have liked you…" Wanda said over the top of her book. Her gaze flicks over to me, then back down at the book.

"Well Wanda, consider me your new best friend…" I start.

"Damn straight!" Tabby yells, standing up and knocking the chair over in the process. "This calls for shopping!" she grins at the two of us. I smile back while Wanda rolls her eyes, ignoring her.

An hour later, Tabitha piles us into the car. She climbs into the driving seat.

"This cannot end well…" Wanda mutters from the back.

"Totally agree with ya there sister…" I say, gazing cautiously as Tabitha sets the car up. She rams the key into ignition and turns it on. She quickly turns off Lance's crappy rock music and replaces it with her own.

"Oh REALLY Tabitha? Justin Bieber?" Wanda groans, leaning her head against the headrest. I laugh, not really caring what was on the radio.

"Gee, just can't win with you Wand-urh" Tabby purposefully mispronounces her name, causing Wanda to tusk from the back. With my mind, I flick the song onto the next track. Next to me, Tabby gives me a filthy look. Out of the stereo, DEV pumps out. Instantly, all our differences are settled, and we all sing along (I say sing, really we screamed along. Gaining attention from those walking. It was a lot of fun).

Tabby pulls up into the car park of the mall. We all climb out and walk towards the entrance. Before we even enter, I can tell that the x-men are present. I can't tell which ones, I just knew they were there.

We stroll through store after store. I didn't mention the x-men to the girls, knew there would simply be trouble if I did. So we journeyed on.

We walked over to Jane Norman. Clearly I was the only one who wanted to go in. Wanda and Tabitha stayed outside. I look through the cloth racks. Around me, I catch snippets of conversations. But really, I was listening into one conversation.

"Look over there Wanda. It's the little x-men." I look out the window. From where I stood, I was concealed. I could seem them, but they couldn't see me. Jean, Kitty, Rouge, Scott and Kurt strolled past. They didn't notice them at first, but Tabby had to open her big mouth.

"Hey fur ball!" she yelled. Kurt's head moved in that direction, and froze causing Scott to walk into him.

"Hey, watch where you're going Kurt…" Scott says pushing him gently. Then his gaze locks onto to Tabitha's, then Wanda. He looks around, obviously waiting for the trap to unfold. When it didn't, he grabbed the back of Kurt's shirt, who had started to make his way towards Tabby.

"Come on. We're leaving." Kurt's shoulder dropped. Slowly he turned in that direction.

"Whoa, his head is well up his ass today..." Tabitha said, not exactly quietly, to Wanda. Wanda laughed. Scott froze. His hand instantly went to his ruby quartzes glasses. Slowly he turned around, his arm dropping back to his side.

"What did you say?" he asked, his voice slow, as if he were speaking to a four year old. I groaned. Mistake number one. I may have been on the brotherhood's side, but I still didn't want a fight.

"You heard." Tabitha said, walking up to Scott and poking him in the chest. "You never let anyone do anything! You're SUCH a party pooper." Scott moves her hand away. The corner of his lip rises. "Oh what? You're trying to scare me by looking like Logan? Ha. Great one. You're as intimidating as a pussy. Which reminds me…?" She turns to Jean and speaks slowly. "You're not getting any." Jeans gaze goes cloudy.

"You say one more word and I'll make sure you never see the light of day again." Scott says his voice in a monotone. It was clear that he wanted her to say something, and we all knew she would.

"Bring it." She says, the small orbs already forming in her hands.
