CHAP 9

"I have something to tell you." Confessed Aurora.

"Vhat is it? Oh! I know! You vant to go for another hamburger?" guessed Kurt.

"no, not quite.."

"no, really, let's go, Aurora!"

"Kurt, it's night.."

"so vhat? Let's go!" Kurt grabbed her hand.

"Kurt..what is this all about?" asked Aurora.

"Vell, Aurora, I have a bad feeling about this thing the professor needs help on."

"Kurt, I'll be fine." Stated Aurora. "honestly."

"Please, let's just go out for hamburgers, and ve'll just..relax tonight. I really

have a bad feeling, and I vant to have fun with you before anything really bad

happens.." Kurt gave her the sad puppy dog look. Aurora heaved a sigh.

"ok, but just for a little while." She finally agreed.

"Wunderbar!" Exclaimed Kurt, and teleported them away. They re- appeared at a

burger place not too far away.

"open all night!" exclaimed Kurt excitedly.

"you mean we're going to eat hamburgers all night long?"

"Vell, I really could eat hamburgers all night long..but for your sake I von't."

"how generous of you." Smiled Aurora having a seat. They had the whole place to

themselves aside from two others. Aurora sighed a sigh of relief. No creepy bad guys

tonight. Just her and Kurt.. and their hamburgers. The atmosphere was peaceful,

which was a large change for her. She liked it. She looked over at Kurt who had already

stuffed three hamburgers in his mouth, and giggled.

"Vhat?" mumbled Kurt through a mouthful of food.

"nothing...you know what, Kurt?"

"hmm?" asked Kurt, stuffing another burger in his mouth.

" You and I, we're a lot alike." She leaned over the table to look more closely at

him. His messy hair, his soft features..

"I don't think so. You are beautiful, and I am..."

"no, I'm not beautiful. Look at all these huge scars. They're grotesque! Now

you..you are beautiful, Kurt." Kurt blushed at her words. Beautiful, huh? Too bad

everyone else didn't share her views. Even Kitty was a little shocked by him when she

first saw him. Kitty...that was the first time he had thought about her in a long time. He

looked at the Blonde haired girl sitting across from him, silently looking out the window.

He wondered what she was thinking. Was she happy, there, with him? Or just bored out

of her mind? She took his hand and gazed into his eyes. He knew she saw him. Kurt

Wagner, the human being, not Nightcrawler, the blue demon. She did not see him as a

monster.

"I want you to know, Kurt, that no matter what happens with this whole thing, I

care about you...I always will. If we somehow...temporarily lose each other...please

don't forget me. 'kay?"

"oh Aurora! I could never forget you! Ever!" exclaimed Kurt.

"glad to hear it, fuzz ball." She smiled. "now I challenge you to a game of

Tekken 3!" She nodded towards the arcade games.

"you're on!" he exclaimed, and ran for one of the joysticks.
