Mutant Crush - Chapter 6
Kitty walked in her room as usual after school. Rogue was waiting for her, "Kitty, finally. You're here."
"Um... Okay. Like what's the rush?"
"I heard something really really bad."
"Like what is it?"
"Okay," Rogue sighed, "I heard that Pietro has a thing for you."
Kitty burst out laughing, "No way!"
"It's true and he says he's gonna ask you out."
"Forget it." Kitty paused, "That's never ever going to happen."
"Okay, I thought I just warn you."
"Thanks anyways."
After supper that night, Kitty got a phone call from Pietro. "Hello?"
"Hey Kitty, this is Pietro."
"Hi, like what's up with you."
"Kitty, I want to tell you something but I'm not sure if I should tell you."
"Like what is it?" Kitty was wondering if Rogue was right.
"I like you Kitty, like you more as a friend."
There was a pause. "Kitty? Hello? Are you still there?"
"Yeah, I'm here. But..."
"I know you probably have a thing still for Lance."
"No I don't." Kitty hated when people accused her of that.
Pietro laughed, "So will you go out with me?"
"No."
"Oh okay, that's fine. I got to go now, I'll see you tomorrow at school then." Pietro hung up the phone.
He sounded really serious. Did he mean it? I hope not. Kitty thought.
Next day at school, Kitty was looking for Pietro. "Hey like finally, you're here."
"Were you looking for me?"
"Yeah, like where have you been?"
"Around, here and there."
"Never mind that's not important. I just wanted to say that I'm really sorry about last night and all."
"You are?"
"Yeah. And I'm just maybe not ready to go out again." Kitty explained, "I would still like to be friends with you and all."
Then Kitty left, she caught up with Mary-Ann and told her about everything. "I'm so happy for you."
"You are?"
"Sure. I mean you and Pietro are the cutest match."
"Haha.. I'm not so sure."
The girls giggled and went into their next class. After school that day, Kitty was walking home when she saw Sabertooth. She was frightened about what he might do to her. Kitty looked around and saw no one there that made her even more scared. Sabertooth eventually saw Kitty too, and growled at her. He was coming right at her, he attacked her, but Kitty phased through him. Accidentally, he swung back and hit her from behind. Kitty shrieked, and screamed and hollered.
Meanwhile, Lance heard her from across the park. He immediately knew who it was and tried to walk fast with his crutches. A few minutes later when Lance finally got to Kitty, he saw Pietro holding Kitty in his arms. He turned away and walked back. Maybe Pietro was right, he really liked her, Lance thought.
"Thanks Pietro."
"What were you doing here anyways?"
"I was taking a shortcut."
Pietro held Kitty tight and afraid to let her go. He kissed her on her forehead and helped her to get up. Afterwards, Pietro walked Kitty home.
