Mutants 101
..Scott III
by Michiru
How could I resist going to decorate when it was Jean who asked me to go? I guess I'm a sucker for… well, for her.
I really should bite the bullet and ask her out sometime.
"A little higher on the right, Scott," she calls out to me.
I move the painted banner up a notch.
"Perfect," she beams. Thumb tacks float up to put the banner firmly in place. Not too obvious a show of her power. Not as if she was holding the banner up…
"Um, Jean?" I ask, looking over at her. Kitty's gone to the bathroom, making this a perfect time to talk to Jean.
"Yes, Scott?" She smiles at me and pushes her hand through her hair. She hops off the chair. That marvelous hair of hers swirls about her. Wow. She's so beautiful.
"I… Well… For a while… You see…" I begin lamely. "We've kinda known each other for awhile."
"Yes, I suppose we have," Jean laughs softly (wow) and smiles at me.
I jump off the chair and almost fall on my face. Real smooth, Slim.
"Well, you see," oh, damn, "I just wanted to know… well, if you'd… go out on a date with me."
Ever get so nervous your palms sweat? Well, I'm past that. My EYEBALLS are sweating.
She smiles. Wow. "You're asking me out on a date? What about Taryn?"
"Who?" I ask, momentarily clueless. "Oh," I add as she giggles. "Taryn. Well, it's not like we're going steady or anything. She's a nice girl. But I… well, I wanted to go out with you for awhile now. But you were dating Duncan," I shrug.
"We're not going steady or anything," she smiles mischievously. Wow.
"Seeing as he's going out with Kurt now, that's a good thing."
She looks startled. Guess she didn't know, huh?
"With… KURT?" her green eyes blink.
"Yeah," I told her, truthful to a fault. "Logan even caught them kissing."
"Oh. Well, if that's what he wants. Though it would have been nice if he had TOLD me," Jean shrugs. Jean shrugging is the eighth wonder of the world.
"Will you?" I ask hopefully.
She smiles again. That smile is the ninth wonder of the world.
"Yes, Scott," she tells me, eyes glimmering.
"Wow," I grin. "Awesome. Oh, great," I'm overenthusing here, but hey, it's not everyday the most beautiful girl in the world agrees to go out with you.
"Calm down, Scott," she laughs, "It's not as if I've agreed to marry you," she winks. "Yet."
Insert Brain Fart here.
Omigosh, she said marriage… oh wow, oh…
I wrestle to get hold of myself. Obviously a bit of time has passed. Kitty's back and talking to Jean.
"They're in the parking lot!" Kitty's chirping, and bouncing about.
Wow, Jean and I are going out on a date. Not just my day, but my life has been made.
The group starts coming in, going past the streamers and balloons, laughing and excited. Kurt's come in and is grinning at the banner. "Cool job, Scott!"
"It's not bad," I grin foolishly.
"Ah hate this kinda thing," Rogue is complaining as she walks in. She stops as she sees the banner.
Happy 16th Kurt and Rogue!!!!
"Yer kiddin," Rogue states.
"Happy Birthday, Rogue," Jean smiles warmly (wow).
"Who told?!" Rogue looks shocked.
"Uh, don't remember," Kitty giggles.
"Hey, is this where the party is?"
I look over to see…
"Lance!" Kitty cries.
"Pietro!" Rogue gasps.
"Hey, Kitten," Lance gives Kitty a smile.
"Remember, you said you'd behave," Kitty hugs Lance. Sigh. Why? Why does Kitty like LANCE of all people
"No prob," he grins. "Hey, Rogue, Happy Birthday, girl."
"Thanks, Lance," Rogue sighs.
"Hey, Roguey," Pietro is suddenly beside her.
"Hey, Hummin'bird," she says quietly. I'm just close enough to hear them.
"I see you got it," he's grinning like a fool. The fool.
"Why, Pietro? Ah'm havin' a bit of trouble with all this. It went down bad last time," Rogue sighs.
"Cause I was wrong. See, big day. I'm admitting I'm wrong. I miss you. If Lance and Kitty can be Romeo and Juliet, why can't we?"
"Romeo and Juliet killed themselves, Pietro," Rogue says flatly.
"Look Rogue," Pietro takes Rogue's gloved hand. "I was dumb, stupid and a typical teenaged guy." I've never heard him like this. His tone is quiet and serious. "I really do miss you, and I want to patch things up."
Whoa. Rogue and… Pietro? They used to go OUT together?
"Ah've missed you, too," Rogue confesses. "Maybe…" she toys with a silver ID bracelet.
"Sealed with a kiss," Pietro grins and actually kisses Rogue on the lips. It's REALLY a QUICK kiss, but he's still standing. Hooooo-ooooly.
"Pietro," Rogue murmurs, touching her lips.
This is one crazy day, everyone.

**Disclaimer**
Some of the situations aren't necessarily always out of just my head. As Haruka and I do a lot of role-playing, if you read her stuff, you might find a general theme with our stuff once in a while, even though she does write much better than I do =3
I do not own any of the characters within this fic. This is just a fic, not gospel, and situations that may be within the show don't necessarily make their way here. And vice versa.
