I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore.

Kitty walked into her room and flopped down on the bed with a huge sigh, her room was empty since her roommate was out. She had just gone out on a date with Kurt, and it had all gone terribly wrong, she loved Kurt, she really did, but he was not boyfriend material, she thought of him as more of a brother. Then there was her date last week with Bobby Drake a.k.a Iceman. That hadn't gone too well either, Bobby was so sure of himself around her at the Institute when his friends were around, but get him away from his peers and he was a nervous wreck, he was so nervous in fact that he nearly caused the coke in their cinema cup to freeze. Kitty was fed up with all of the guys around the Institute, they were all either heroes or Romeos. Personally for her she only wanted to actually date one guy, but it was forbidden apparently, she was told this by Scott Summers, but it then it hit her, of course Scott wouldn't approve, Scott thought it would be inappropriate, plus the fact that he hated the guy also came into play. That was all it took. Kitty grabbed her coat and sneakers and ran out of the Institute, not even thinking about how she looked. She ran and ran until she reached the all too familiar place she was looking for. The Boarding House of The Brotherhood of Bayville. She phased through the door and silently made her way up the rickety staircase. She didn't know which room was his, so she poked her head through each door, literally, until she found the right one. When she found him she fully phased through the doorway and walked over to his bed. She shook him lightly to wake him up, slowly he opened his eyes and was so surprised that Kitty had to slap her hand over his mouth to get him from shouting out something to his housemates, when he realised who it was his facial expressions changed from surprised/angry, to happy/gentle to see her. Kitty didn't have to say anything everything was written in her eyes. Slowly, she leaned in closer to him and he leaned in as well, their lips met and it was like fireworks had gone off in each of their heads. When they finally drew apart they were breathing heavily, Kitty lay down and rested herself into his arms where he welcomed her and cradled her in his arms.

"Kitty?" her lover spoke for the first time, "Why?" he had said so few words but she had understood completely.

"That's simple Lance" she spoke gently, "I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore."

Oh oh yeah ooh

We text as we eat

As we listen to the freaks

As we wait for the right of way

We text as we talk

We're running as we walk

Cos we're several little souls away We smoke as we choke

As we sink another Coke

And we grin when it blows on mine

We skate as we date

As we slowly suffocate

We're running, we're running, we're running

Out of time

My life got cold

It happened many years ago

When summer slipped away

So chill now oh

We've got many years to go

So take it day by day

And on the go

I lost my soul

To some forgotten dream and

How was I supposed to know

It wasn't what it seemed

And even though the last to low

Has left me on the floor

I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore

We spend as we mend

Cos we're happy to pretend

Everything's gonna be OK

We shake as we break

Never giving 'til we take

And we hate when we have to pay

We flirt while we work

To forget about the hurt

And the trash that we left behind

We sink as we swim

The ice is wearing thin

We're running, we're running, we're running

Out of time

My life got cold

It happened many years ago

When summer slipped away

So chill now oh

We've got many years to go

So take it day by day

And on the go

I lost my soul

To some forgotten dream and

How was I supposed to know

It wasn't what it seemed

And even though the last to low

Has left me on the floor

I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore

My life got cold

It happened many years ago

When summer slipped away

So chill now oh

We've got many years to go

So take it day by day

And on the go

I lost my soul

To some forgotten dream and

How was I supposed to know

It wasn't what it seemed

And even though the last to low

Has left me on the floor

I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore
