Chapter Three

     As Lance was about to fall asleep, the final bell of the day rang.

Finally, school was over. Lance could go home and take his mind off of Kitty

Pryde.

     Lance walked to his locker. Standing in front of his locker was…Kitty? You must show more control, Lance told himself.

     ~Lance,~ The brown haired girl said.

     ~What?~ Lance mumbled.

     ~I wanted to tell you… I wanted to tell you that…I…love you?~Kitty said.

     Lance's mind shattered like ice crystals. Those were the very words he had always wanted to hear, but she could be duping him again. Plus she was going out with Furry Boy.

     ~It's too late~ Lance said after an eternity.
