Chapter 5
Kitty yawned as she shoved a tooth brush into her mouth. Foam bubbled, and after gargling a few times, she spat into the sink. She reached behind her head and freed her brown locks from the hair band that held them so tightly, running a brush through it a few times. Leaving the bathroom, she re-entered her bedroom, glancing around to inspect her work.
"At least I can move around without tripping over a box," she mumbled to herself. Her back ached a little from all the leaning over she had just performed; all she wanted to do was shut her eyes and not wake for another nine hours. She stripped out of her day clothes and slipped in to her nightgown. Turning off the light, she walked over to her bed silently, falling onto it and snuggling into her pillow.
She sighed, smiling. She felt lucky. Today she met Kurt, a totally cute boy that MIGHT even like her. Kitty turned over in bed. She also couldn't believe that Lance was here... Before she moved, all she wanted was to go out with him. She wrote all about him in the journal she kept in her laptop. She remembered in math class - he could barely keep his eyes off her. And he was so fun to be around, because he was so...dangerous. She laid flat on her back and her thoughts drifted...
To Toad...
She laughed to herself, remembering the first day they met. How funny he looked when she told Duncan to take a hike, kind of suprised by her actions. Kitty also suprised herself that day; she never expected herself to do that... It was just an impulse... She just wanted to save him... Kitty wanted to delve further into thought, but unwillingly drifted to sleep...

'I'm flying!' Kitty thought. She soared through the air, over tall buildings and into the sky. Her nightgown billowed in the cool night's wind, and she laughed as she dove through the clouds.
"This is amazing!" she cried, attempting to go higher, but something went wrong.
"Ahhh!!!" She cried out, slipping from the caress of the night, falling towards the ground. The street below came closer and closer and...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"AHHH!!!" Kitty yelled, popping up out of bed. Her back hurt worse than last night, like she had slept on the floor. Kitty reached for her blanket, but it was nowhere to be found. She blinked, looking around. The couch sat next to her, and the kitchen was ahead.
"Why am I in the living room?" she wondered, and picked herself up off the floor, but her back protested. She grimaced and sat down on the couch. She couldn't figure out how she came to be downstairs... She couldn't remember getting up, and even if she did, why would she lie on the floor?
She took a minute to think, recalling one of those dreams where you're flying and you fall.
'Did I sleep walk?' she questioned to herself. She must have...otherwise why would she be down there?
"Kitty? Where are you?" her mother called from upstairs. Kitty got up from the couch, regretting it the moment she carried out the task.
"Mom, I'm down here!" she replied, going towards the stairs.
"Honey, why are you down there?" she asked, her head appearing over the railing.
"Uhh--- breakfast?" She couldn't tell her mother she was sleep walking; her parents tended to overreact with Kitty. As a small child, she would run around the house naked, so they sent her to a therapist for the next six months.
"Oh." Her mother's head disappeared back behind the railing, and Kitty sighed.
At school...
The Nissan pulled up to the school's curb and Kitty stepped out of the vehicle.
"Thanks for the ride mom!" Kitty waved. She walked over the curb and up the main stairs. Kitty then went over to her locker.
8...12...30...
"Hey Kitty!"
"Bah!" Kitty cried. Why was it that every time she went to her locker someone always snuck up on her?
"Toad, hey," She said, shutting her locker.
"What are you doing?" he asked, leaning against the wall.
"I was just like, putting away my chemistry book."
"Heh-- wanna go get a breakfast burrito? I missed breakfast," Toad suggested.
"Sure, I'm totally hungry." After Kitty spoke with her mother, she realized that she had about twenty minutes to get ready. Her mother had offered a ride to ensure she wouldn't be late.
The two walked down the hall, getting stares from onlookers. They all wondered why the cute new girl was hanging out with...well...Toad.
"Toad, something weird happened last night," Kitty began, worry touching her face.
"What?" Toad asked, he suddenly pictured Kitty in her bed and blushed a little.
"Last night, I had one of those dreams where your flying and you, like, fall."
"Yah---"
"Well, I had one of those but, when I woke up I was on the floor."
"Hah, I think you might have just fallen." Toad laughed
"No, but I was in the living room..." Said seriously, closing her eyes.
"Oh, so, what you sleep walk or something?"
"Well I have never done it before... so I don't know..."
They stopped, having arrived at the cafeteria. Kitty and Toad were about wait in line when they heard, "Hey."
Lance sat a table alone, Kitty smiled shyly and walked over. Toad felt a stab of jealously, but brushed it off.
"Hey Lance..." he muttered, staring over at Kitty.
"What are you doing here?" Kitty asked
"Waiting for you."
"So what classes did you get?" she asked after giggling. He opened his mouth to speak but was interrupted.
"Hey Kitty! Zere you are!"
"Kurt?" Kitty asked turning her head. He and Scott came toward the table, stopping when they noticed she was sitting with Toad and Lance.
"Kitty, vhy are you sitting vith Toad?"
"What's that supposed to mean blue boy?" Toad said getting up. Lance sat not sure who they were, but was getting the impression he wouldn't like them.
"Hey what's going on?" Kitty asked, not sure why there was such a tension in the room.
"Kitty I don't think you should be hanging out with these two, I don't think it's very safe." Scott said sizing up Lance. The Professor had told them that the Brotherhood had added a new 'member'.
"Hey Shades, I think maybe you should leave," Lance said.
"Stop! Why are you guys, like, fighting?" Kitty protested.
"Because I happen not to like the X-freaks," Toad said, directing his comment at Kurt, the boy who said he smelt like dirty ladeurhosin. Kurt began to walk towards him but Kitty stepped in between.
"Stop it, I don't know why you're fighting, but like quit it!" She shouted.
BRRRIIINNGGGGGG
Scott sighed, and looked to his friend.
"Kitty's right. We have no reason to fight. Let's go."
"Fine." He turned to Kitty. "I'll see you at lunch Kitty?"
"Okay Kurt," she replied with a smile, and then to Lance and Toad, "I've gotta go but I will see you guys later!"
Kitty's exit was soon followed by Lance, but Toad sat at the table. That smile that she gave Kurt stuck in his head. It was bad enough with Lance, but now with the Nightcreeper... He sighed and buried his head in his arms...
*Read and review* Ohhh... the plot thickens! I think some people got the wrong impression from the last chapter. I hope that this rectifies my mistake! Thank you all!!!
