Author's note: Thank you so much to those who read my first chapter! I didn't mean for this chapter to take so long to be posted but a lot of stuff has happened in between now and February and I wasn't happy with the chapter, but I have it finished now and I promise I will have chapter 3 up soon, it is already written. Now onto the reviews.
StarNerve: Thank you so much for reading my story! Thank you so much for the advice it really helped. I'm gonna try to slow it down a little. I know where I want the story to go, I'm just not very good at getting it to that point. I'm glad you liked it.
lone ranger22: Thank you for reading my story! I promise that there will be longer fluffy moments in the next few chapters.
Now for my second chapter:
Update: March 2022: Just fixing some stuff up, same as last chapter.
Kitty woke up to find her favorite Fuzzy Elf in her face. She smiled as she sat up.
"Hey Fuzzy…" Kitty started to say when he cut her off.
"Breakfast is downstairs, I'll zee you at school. I'm leaving early to meet Amanda. Bye Keety." He said quickly before teleporting out of the mansion. Kitty just sat there in shock for what seemed like forever before heading towards the door, but instead of walking down to breakfast, she locked the door and laid back on her bed and cried softly.
Meanwhile, Kurt reappeared on the outskirts of the woods where he walked the rest of the way to Bayville High. When he finally reached the school, he found Amanda waiting for him.
"Kurt!" She called as she ran over and embraced him. They shared a kiss before heading inside.
"So, Kurt I was thinking, today we should totally go to the mall." Amanda said as they walked to class. "They have a huge sale today and I can't wait to go through every store. Can we go? Please?"
"Vell, I promised Keety ve vould hang out today after school, just ze two of us." Kurt replied walking slightly faster wanting to exit the conversation before he did something stupid.
"But Kurt, it's a sale. I need you to carry my bags." Amanda said with an annoyed tone in her voice.
"But," Kurt tried to interject before being cutoff.
"Besides I'm your girlfriend. You should be with me more than you are with her." Amanda spoke that last word bitterly.
"She is mein bester Freund, I don't vant to hurt her feelings," Kurt said, not willing to look into the icy glare Amanda was giving him.
"HER FEELINGS?!" Amanda exclaimed enraged. "WHAT ABOUT MINE?!"
"Vell," Kurt began, deep in thought not wanting to upset either girl. "I suppose Keety vouldn't mind one more day. I can zee her after ze sale."
'Yes, don't do anything stupid, good job idiot!' Kurt mentally chewed himself out.
"I knew you would see things my way Kurt." Amanda said calming down and accepting her victory. Unbeknown to Kurt he would not see Kitty until he returned to the institute at around midnight.
Kitty sat on the rec room couch as she looked at the clock.
'12. I should have known he'd ditch me for Amanda again.'
Kitty had to hold back tears when she heard the familiar noise of Kurt teleporting. She quickly wiped her eyes and turned to find him climbing the stairs quite slowly for someone as energetic as him.
"Kurt where have you been?" Kitty asked angrily.
"Vas?" Kurt said in a panicked tone as he turned around to notice Kitty for the first time. "Oh it's just you Keety. Amanda vanted to go to zis huge sale at ze mall."
"You told me we would hang out today Kurt." Kitty retorted feeling rejected.
"I know Keety but ze sale vas only for ze one day, und she really vanted to go," Kurt muttered tiredly. "How about ve hang out next Tuesday?"
"But..." Kitty started.
"Ja okay, Tuesday it is." Kurt said before teleporting to his room to rest. This time Kitty didn't even bother trying to stop her tears.
-some hours later-
"What's a guy gotta do to get a decent drink around here?" Logan grumbled as he grabbed a soda from the fridge. Suddenly the gruff X-Man froze. There was a small noise coming from the rec room.
"What was that?" He whispered to himself as he popped out his claws. He quietly made his way down the hall, where he found the last thing he expected. There laying on the sofa was a sleeping Kitty Pryde.
"Half-pint?" He slowly walked over to the sleeping girl and he noticed she was sniffling. He took a double take and found her eyes were red, she had been crying. He carefully picked her up, so as not to wake her. He carried her back to her room.
Kitty woke up to find herself, not on the couch, but rather in her own bed. She nearly jumped out of bed when she realized that she was late for the morning danger room session. She quickly jumped into her uniform as she phased through the floor.
'Mister Logan is going to kill me'
As she reached the danger room she found the rest of the team heading back up to their rooms to get ready for school.
"Mister Logan, I'm so sorry I missed the training session, I overslept, please please don't kill me!" Kitty started to explain but was swiftly cut off by the Wolverine.
"Relax Half-pint, I thought it would be best for you to sleep in today after the rough night you had." Logan calmly stated.
"Oh, thank you Mister Logan." Kitty said embarrassed that Logan had found her crying, but grateful for the extra sleep.
"Now go on and get ready for school." Logan said sternly.
Suddenly Kitty's anxious feeling returned as she quickly ran up the stairs. "Yes sir!"
"Kids." Logan muttered to himself with a small smile.
-later-
Hey Kitty, hey Rogue." Jean called her friends from where she sat with the others at their lunch table.
Hey Jean, hey Scott, hi Evan, where's Kurt?" Kitty greeted her friends.
"He's eating lunch with Amanda." Evan answered without looking up from his lunch.
All Kitty could manage to squeak out was a small "oh" as she sat down and began picking at her food.
"Hey Pretty-Kitty," a voice rang from the crowd.
"What do you want Lance?" Kitty asked in an empty tone.
"I was wondering if you would like to go out this Friday?" Lance replied with a smirk.
Kitty looked over to where Kurt and Amanda were sitting as she heard Jean's voice in her head.
'Don't do it Kitty, just tell Kurt how you feel. Trust me.'
She glanced back over to Kurt as she replied.
"I'd love to." She answered. Lance pumped his fist in the air as he walked off.
"See you Friday Pretty-Kitty." Lance called back.
Jean mentally sighed as she went back to her conversation with Scott.
Across the cafeteria, Kurt's spirit fell, having heard the whole conversation with his advanced hearing. He looked over at Kitty and sighed.
'She will never like me anyway' he told himself as he went back to his food.
The next couple of weeks went by quickly with little to no communication between the two best friends. Kitty thought this horrid cycle would go on forever, but one day Kurt came home from school and he walked immediately to her room, something strange for the blue teleporter.
"Hallo Kätzchen, can ve talk?" Kurt asked in a small voice as he sat on her bed.
"Oh so you remember my name now, do you?" Kitty grumbled, glaring him down. "I thought Amanda was too important for you to remember your best friend."
"Keety," Kurt tried to speak but Kitty wouldn't let him get a word in.
"I thought that now that you had little Miss Perfect that you didn't need me anymore." She continued, tears welling in the corners of her eyes.
"But Kätzchen," Kurt spoke before being cut off again.
"I don't want to hear it Kurt, maybe we shouldn't be best friends anymore," Kitty was furious now. "Now get out Kurt, I have to get ready for my date with Lance." And with that she pushed him through the door before shutting it in his face.
Kurt felt horrible as he trudged back to his own room. He hadn't expected Amanda to dump him and he definitely did not expect his best friend to desert him when he needed her most. But he knew he deserved it after deserting her for months. When he got to his room he flopped down on his bed and silently cried himself to sleep. Unknown to him, Kitty did the same.
So there's the 2nd chapter. Again so sorry it took so long to be uploaded. I wasn't happy with the chapter and a lot of stuff has happened since February, but I should be posting more often now. Chapter 3 will be up soon as it has already written. I hope you enjoyed and wether you did or not, feel free to let me know what you did and didn't enjoy about this story in a review. Thanks for reading.
