Chapter 16
The Professor was able to convince Principal Kelly to let Kurt out of his last two classes (his teachers just gave him the homework), so that Kurt could see Hank early and talk about what had happened in the library that morning.
Principal Kelly always seemed to jump at any chance he could get to remove one of the mutants from his school.
Scott had some time in between his afternoon classes, so he was there in front of the school to pick Kurt up.
"How's it going buddy?" Scott asked as Kurt threw his backpack into the back of Scott's convertible.
Kurt growled. "I've certainly had better mornings." Kurt continued to grumble as he let himself into the passenger side of Scott's car.
Scott grimaced at Kurt's obvious bad mood. "What exactly happened this morning? The Professor wasn't exactly too specific with me."
Kurt sighed. "Aside from the fact that mein Mutter posed as Amara."
Scott nearly rear ended the car in front of him out of surprise. "You've got to be kidding me Kurt!"
Kurt through Scott a look that seemed to say 'does it look like I'm kidding.' "And the worst part is, she was listening to Rogue and my conversation and ... Scott I ... I think she knows about ...," Kurt paused and looked away sheepishly, but Scott was still able to pretty much figure out what Kurt had been about to say.
Scott groaned and sped ahead as the light over the intersection turned green. "Mystique knows about the baby?" It was actually more of a statement from Scott than a question.
Kurt closed his eyes and dropped his head back onto the seat. "I'm pretty sure she does Scott. After all, she heard practically the whole conversation between Rogue and I."
If Scott hadn't had to wear the red pair of shades, Kurt probably would have noticed him rolling his eyes in exasperation. "You just can't seem to catch a break, can you?"
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Scott basically only had enough time to drop Kurt off at the front gate and Kurt was in no mood to talk.
Kurt walked right down to the infirmary where he had agreed to meet Hank after school, and was brought up short by the sight of the Professor already there waiting for him.
"I hope you don't mind if we talk while Hank examines you Kurt," the Professor said in reference to Kurt's semi shocked expression.
Kurt shook his head and looked at the Professor. "No Professor, it's fine I've just had a horrible day so far."
The Professor nodded in understanding. "That's alright, Kurt I can certainly understand. Just lay down on the bed and let Hank examine you while we talk."
Kurt nodded tiredly and tossed aside his backpack on the floor, switched off his image inducer, and flopped down on the bed. "Es ist nur der Nachmittag und ich bin sehr müde."
The Professor smiled. "It's alright Kurt. We'll let you take a nap when after this examination."
"Danke Professor," Kurt said with a sigh as Hank silently started his examination.
"Now Kurt," the Professor started, "why don't you tell me exactly what happened at the library this afternoon."
Kurt sighed once again. "Vhat's to tell. Amara sat down with me and Rogue at the library. She seemed to ignore us for awhile and then suddenly jumped up and darted out of the library. Both me and Rogue thought her behavior was extremely weird. Until both Amara and Tabitha claimed she wasn't in the library at all during that period."
The Professor nodded gravelly. "Then I'm afraid you were right Kurt. Mystique is back and most likely trying to figure out what Magneto did to you."
Kurt growled low in his throat. "Why does she always do this?! Is it too much to simply come up to me and ask me what is going on? To maybe show a little concern and affection instead of resorting to spying on me! Ich bin ihrer Sohn!"
The Professor closed his eyes at Kurt's outburst. He didn't understand why Mystique did this either. Kurt for one, would have been more than willing to talk face to face, but she seemed to feel that wasn't necessary. How was it that Mystique had even ended up with such a beautiful son like Kurt?
"Kurt, I'm sorry," the Professor said, "I know this has got to be very difficult for you."
Kurt nodded, with tears forming in his eyes, but didn't otherwise say anything.
The Professor looked thoughtful for a moment and then spoke up. "Would it make you feel better if I contacted your foster parents and asked them to come?"
Kurt looked up in surprise. "You haven't told them yet?"
The Professor, for once gave a sheepish smile. "I wanted to give you some time and ... to be honest I got a headache just telling the same story over and over again to the other students."
Kurt gave a short snicker. "I guess it is pretty unbelievable."
The Professor nodded, but didn't laugh. "What did you want me to tell your foster parents?"
Kurt stayed silent as he thought about it. "I honestly don't know how to explain this situation Professor," Kurt confessed, "but, I vould like my parents here vith me, so you might vant to ask them here soon. It might take them awhile to get things together and come over to the states."
The Professor nodded. "I'll talk to them later tonight ... and don't worry. I can explain the ... circumstances to them. Truthfully I'm getting quite used to it."
Kurt smiled. "Again, danke Professor."
Kurt then turned his head up to look at Hank. "Do you know vhat's vrong Herr McCoy?"
Hank had a weird look on his face before he turned to regard Kurt with a semi amused look on his face.
"Kurt, what exactly do you know about ... normal pregnancies?"
Kurt shrugged. "Not much."
Hank smiled. "Well, women typically have less muscles and more body fat than men do for the very reason that their bodies are designed for childbirth. Muscles tend to resist the necessary changes that take place during pregnancy."
Kurt groaned as Hank's words sunk in. "So, I'm going to be having muscle cramps for the entire pregnancy?"
Hank shook his head. "More than likely they'll just be off and on. I'll give you a heating bad to keep in your room for when your stomach cramps are more intense. If they get really serious come see me. For right now the resisting muscles aren't hindering the babies growth, but if does start to I might be able to find a muscle relaxant for you."
Kurt nodded as he slowly sat up from the bed. "Danke Herr McCoy. If it's alright can I just go up to my room and take a nap."
The Professor nodded. "Of course Kurt. Feel free to."
With a short nod and a 'bamf' Kurt was gone.
Hank waved his hand over the bed to clear away the smell of brimstone and sulfur, and then grinned as he looked at the floor. "Kurt must be tired ... he forgot his backpack."
The Professor barely spared a glance for the backpack on the floor. "Hank, why don't you drop his backpack off in Kurt's room ... I've got a phone call to make to Kurt's parents."
Hank nodded and pointed with his hand to a phone across the room while picking up Kurt's backpack with his other hand.
"Feel free to use the phone in the infirmary."
The Professor wheeled over to the phone sitting on the desk as Hank walked out of the infirmary.
'How am I going to explain this situation to them?' the Professor thought as he dialed the necessary numbers to reach Kurt's parents in Germany.
"Vagner" a voice answered from the other end of the phone.
The Professor took a deep breath before answering. "Hello, Mr. Wagner, this is Professor Xavier ... I have something to tell you about Kurt."
There was silence from the other end of the phone and then Kurt's father hesitantly asked: "Is Kurt okay?"
The Professor sighed. "No he's not. He's needs you."
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Kurt dozed through pretty much the entire afternoon. All he was tired lately. Of course, even the short teleport up to his room had managed to zap him of some energy, so that when he'd popped into his room he'd barely had the energy to crawl under the covers before sleep claimed him.
He hadn't even notice in the slightest when Hank quietly walked in the room and set his backpack on his desk.
When Kurt finally woke up from his nap and groggily glanced over at the clock sitting on his nightstand. The glowing red numbers read, 6:30. Kurt groaned as he sat up and rubbed his eyes. However, he wasn't afforded much time to pull himself together, since at that moment the door to his room quietly eased open and Rogue stuck her head in.
"Hey, Kurt do you think that I could talk to you?"
Kurt nodded groggily at her and then froze when he saw who Rogue had dragged into the room with her.
"Keety?"
Kitty looked at the floor and blushed. Suddenly too shy to even look at Kurt. Luckily Rogue was there to speak up for her.
"Look, I'm sorry I got involved in ... whatever it is you two are involved in. But I was worried about both of you."
Kurt and Kitty said nothing and just looked at Rogue, waiting for her to go on.
"Anyway, I really think you two should talk it out amongst yourselves. Whatever, you guys decide to do, I'll be a friend and support you," Rogue said. She then turned around and walked out of Kurt's room, closing the door behind her.
Kurt and Kitty both remained silent for awhile, neither knowing what to say. Finally Kitty mustered up her courage and broke the silence in the room.
"So, ... what are we going to do Fuzzy?"
Kurt sighed. "I wish I knew Katzchen. But I do know that I never want to lose your friendship and at the same time I have all these feelings for you. I think I've always had these feelings for you."
Kitty blushed as she walked over to the bed and sat down beside Kurt. "I know what you mean. You've always been the greatest friend I've ever had since I came here to the Institute ... even when I wasn't being particularly nice to you. But ... what I feel for you know has nothing to do with friendship Kurt. I never even felt this way about Lance."
Kurt released the breath he'd been holding. "So, vhat do we do Keety? I mean Rogue does kind of have a point. The further this pregnancy goes along the more difficult things are going to be and the more emotional I'm going to get."
Kitty nodded and added to his point. "Not to mention the fact that there's some creeps out there who want to kill this child!"
Kurt shuddered at Kitty's words and placed a hand over his stomach. "I don't even want to think about that Katzchen."
Kitty responded to Kurt's shudder putting her right arm around Kurt's shoulders, her left hand over his so they were intertwined over his stomach, and hugging him close to her.
"I'm sorry Fuzzy. I shouldn't have said anything," she then paused as she looked down at their hands intertwined over his abdomen. "You're really going to love this child to death aren't you?"
Kurt smiled. "I'm already starting to Keety. Just like I'm developing feeling for you."
Impulsively, Kitty pulled Kurt's face towards her and kissed him lovingly on the cheek. "I'll tell you what Fuzzy, I have us down for a date ... when you can get a babysitter," she said with a mischievous grin on her face.
Kurt looked up at her in complete surprise. "Katzchen, ... I'm not asking you to wait for me."
Kitty nodded. "I know you're not. That's part of why I like you. You're so completely selfless. And I think I owe you the same. I'll be here for you through the whole pregnancy Kurt. And I'll be there for you afterwards," Kitty paused before looking directly up at Kurt and then continuing. "I have a feeling you'll be worth the wait."
Kurt honestly didn't know what to say. So he lightly kissed Kitty on her lips before resting his forehead against hers.
"Danke Katzchen. You've just given me a great gift."
Kitty smiled. "I'd do anything for you."
"Hey Elf, Half-Pint, are you two in there? Dinner's on the table."
Kitty and Kurt both grinned at each other as Logan's voice came through the door. Kitty raised an eyebrow at Kurt in amusement. "Hungry?"
Kurt laughed in response. "Vhen am I not ... besides in the mornings?"
Kitty laughed as the two of them jumped off the bed and walked out of the hall towards Logan.
Logan raised an eyebrow at the two of them laughing, but then shrugged it off and fell into step with the two of them. "It's nice to see the two of you are in a much better mood."
"Well, ... we had some things to work out," Kitty said, exchanging a look with Kurt. Logan noticed the exchanged look, but didn't say anything as the trio walked downstairs towards the dining hall together.
The Professor was waiting for them when they arrived.
"Kurt, you should probably know, I contacted your parents when you were sleeping this afternoon," the Professor said, getting right to the point of why his waiting for him outside the dining room.
Both Logan and Kitty looked at Kurt as the elf tensed up. "How did they ... react?"
The Professor smiled at Kurt. "Well ... they were ... surprised, I won't lie to you about that. But they love you Kurt. They have a few things to get in order, but they're going to be coming to the states within a month."
Kurt visibly relaxed at the Professor's words. "Zhey're ... okay vith it?"
The Professor wheeled forward and placed his hand over Kurt's, unintentionally mimicking Kitty's earlier action.
"Whatever Mystique may say or do, you do have a family that loves you."
Logan and Kitty each put a hand on Kurt's shoulders in response to the Professor's words. "That's right Elf. We won't let anything happen to you," Logan replied gruffly.
Kurt blinked to keep himself from crying at their words. "Zhanks guys."

Meanwhile, across town, Pietro had his feet up and was watching TV at the Brotherhood boarding house. He was for once enjoying a break from Lance's constant questioning over what the heck had happened at the park that day. They would all know in time.
However, suddenly the front door burst and a loud voice yelled, "Where is Pietro?!"
Pietro winced at the voice. 'No. It couldn't be.'
"Yo Mystique, what are you doing here?" Toad's voice asked.
Pietro winced and immediately took off before anyone could tell Mystique that he was there. His father's orders had been quite clear. If Mystique showed up asking questions, just leave. She'd learn in time, but she couldn't interfere with what was to come. Nightcrawler had a duty to perform.
"What do you want with my brother, Mystique?" Wanda asked from the kitchen.
Mystique ignored her at first as she headed towards the living room. "I believe he might have some clue as to where your father is Wanda! And if not, he might even know what he did to my son!"
By that point, Mystique had reached the door to the living room and burst into the room. No one was there.
"He was in there the last time I saw him," Fred said from the doorway.
Wanda ignored all of the guys as she looked at Mystiques. "What is going on?"
Mystique sighed and rubbed her head as if she had a headache. "I'm not sure."

Okay. I got this chapter up before the weekend. Yeah me! Anyway I don't have much to say since there was no questions in the reviews and it is fairly late at night when I'm finishing this.
Raskolian Phoenix, I think I actually found some of your stories this week, hee hee, I'm not planning on throwing Kurt and Kitty into a traditional relationship. It's going to be more like Kitty greatly supporting Kurt through the pregnancy and then their feeling grow throughout that time. I figure a situation like this is a kind of test that would either make or break a couple. But since Kurt's going to be confined to the Mansion for most of the pregnancy, this is not going to be a 'traditional' relationship. I'm trying to make this somewhat different from other Kurtty's ... I'm trying to make Kitty a little more mature.
Also to UltraBrattan: Do you want me to bring Azazel in? I might in a different story of this series, but I'm not sure what to do with it. If you have an idea please let me know.
Anyway that should be all, Oh yeah! The German:
Es ist nur der Nachmittag und ich bin sehr müde. It's only the afternoon and I'm very tired.
Ich bin ihrer Sohn! I am her son
danke thanks/ thank you (I'm sure most people already knew that one).
Please, please, review. I enjoy reading your reviews!
Thanks
