I woke up pretty late this morning and noticed Kitty was up and Rogue was too. I got out bed and went down stairs to eat something. As I came out of my room I saw Jean and she had a very worried look on her face.
"Jean? What's wrong?" I asked tapping her on the shoulder
"Oh Jade, Lance isn't doing so well and Kitty has been sitting with him since 10 this morning." she began.
"Oh god, what did they do to him?" I asked
"We're not sure, but he seems to be getting better." she smiled
"That's good, but I hope Kitty is ok." I said
"Yeah, she'll be ok, anyway I'll see you later." and with that she walked off into the bathroom.
I went down stairs and into the kitchen to get some breakfast or lunch, which ever.
As I opened the fridge, I saw a plate with my name on it. I took it out and took off the plastic covering. It turned out someone saved me eggs, bacon, and orange juice.
"Hey Jade, Nick is here." Rogue said coming into the kitchen, "He has something for you." she smiled.
"I wonder what this could be." I thought walking out of the ktichen. As I came into the main room I saw Nick.
"Hey what brings you here?" I asked hugging him
"I just wanted to give you these." he handed me a boquet ofred roses.
"How sweet." I said smelling them.
"So can you want to come out or something?" he asked
"Yeah, just give me a few minutes ok?" I asked running up stairs
I ran into my room, and since i showered last night I just got dressed. Then I ran back down and jumped into his arms.
"That was fast." he said holding me tight.
We left and went out for lunch and then a movie. He and I had such a good time I didn't want the day to end. As we came out of the theater I saw the Brotherhood. Tabby looked like she was waiting for someone or something to happen.
"Jade who is that?" Nick asked pointing to Tabby
"That's just Tabatha, she's part of gang known as the borhterhood." I whispered.
Suddenly she came over to us and stopped us in our tracks. She looked mad, but then the others came out from a back alley.
"So JubalationLee where is Lance?" she asked, "I mean he is still with you isn't he?"
she asked
"He's with us Tabby. What is it to you?" I asked
"Well, it just so happens he's mine." she said
"I don't understand." Nick said
"No, she and Lance met up last night Kitty got worried and went after him and..." I paused
"What?" Nick asked
"Lance is cheating on Kitty. I remember that night at the Pizza place, he like it." I cotinued.
"He sure did, so you can tell him to come back to his girlfriend." she turned and walked off down the street.
"We have to get back." I said to Nick.
"How did you know what she was thinking Jubalation?" Nick asked as we got into his car.
"I guess my secret is out." I smiled
"What secret? Jade just tell me, and I'll try to understand." he said smiling.
I couldn't hide it anymore, Nick sooner or later would find out and I had to tell him.
"Ok, let's just say I'm not like normal people." I began, "I have powers, that I inherited from my parents." I paused.
"So what are these powers of yours?" he asked as we drove off back to the institute.
"I can read people's thoughts and make fireworks, which are really hot and dangerous." I paused again, "You must promise me you won't tell anyone." I started again.
"Jade, you have my word." he said
"I know you're fingers are crossed. No one!" I said
"Ok my fingers aren't crossed." he laughed as we pulled into the institute.
"Good, then come inside ok?" I asked
" Sure." he said getting out of the car.
We went inside to see the Prof. and Mr.Logan talking. We walked up to him and they turned to see us.
"Jade, who is your friend?" he asked
"This is my boyfriend Nick." I began, "Nick this is Professor X-avior and Mr. Logan." I continued my introduction.
"Nick, nice to meet you. I take it that you know about Jade." the Prof. smiled, "As long as you don't tell anyone, you are welcome here." he paused.
"Something wrong Charles?" Logan asked
"Yes, Nick why don't you and Jade come into my office." he said and we followed him inside.
"What's up Professor?" I asked as we sat down in two chairs.
"I sense something about you Nick." he said, "Don't worry I won't hurt you." he came around and placed his hand over his forehead and the other hand on Nick's face.
It grew silent, but then the Prof. suddenly had a smile on his face as he looked at me.
"He's one of us." he said using his telepathy
"Oh what can he do?" I asked
"He can morph into a dog." he replied.
"Really... just ask him about it." I said
"So, Nick tell me about the late nights you morph and go out?" the Prof. began.
"Oh shit!" he whispered
"I know all about it." he said.
"I wasn't able to control it, but I have tried to supress it." he began.
"Yes, the many nights I spent." he said.
"Why don't you come stay with us and we'll help you, control your powers." he said holding out his hand.
