AH HA!
Scott answered the glass front door, as he heard the doorbell ring. He raised an eyebrow at the unfamiliar young man standing on the doorstep of the institute. "Uhm, yes?"
"Yo, is Betsy around?" Toad asked.
Toad still wore his image inducer. Scott raised his eyebrow higher, "And who's asking?"
Toad rolled his eyes, and switched off the image inducer. The only changes were his eye color returning to his normal glass yellow color, and his skin tainting to a greenish color, "It's me, Toad."
Scott's mouth dropped. "What'd they do to you?" He gasped.
Toad shrugged, "Gave me a makeover. Is she around?"
Scott nervously nodded, and moved aside, letting him inside the mansion. Toad looked in the foyer in front of him, and smiled as he saw Elizabeth walking alongside her twin brother Brian, from the kitchen into the foyer. "Betsy!" Toad called.
Elizabeth looked up, and smiled, "Hi Toad!" She grinned.
Scott stared at him suspiciously, as Toad made his way to Elizabeth. "I need your help on something." Toad said, as he reached Elizabeth.
Brian smiled at Toad, "Looking good, Tolansky."
Toad slightly smiled at him, "Thanks." He then looked at Elizabeth.
"What is it, Toad?" Elizabeth asked.
Toad's mouth curved to a slight smile, and he held up a CD in front of Elizabeth's face. "Dancing."
*~*~*~*
Kitty switched on the stereo in Elizabeth's room, and let out a laugh as she heard the opening of the cliché song, "Livin' La Vida Loca". Elizabeth raised an eyebrow at the sound of the music, "Why this song?"
Toad shrugged, "I bummed it off of Wanda."
Kitty and Elizabeth looked at each other, and let out a laugh. "Okay, Toad, sit on the bed, and watch me and Betsy." Kitty smiled.
The two girls faced each other, and began dancing to the music. Toad sat on the edge of Elizabeth's bed, watching. He watched the two girls grab onto each other's hands, twirling each other, and beginning to move their hips to the music. "Livin' La Vida Loca!" Tabitha sang as she opened the door to Elizabeth's room.
Tabitha looked up, and let out a laugh, as she saw the two girls dancing. She danced into the room, followed by Rogue, who just plainly walked into the room, closing the door after her. Tabitha shut off the stereo, causing the two girls to stop. "What's going on here?" Tabitha asked.
"I need help with dancin', yo!" Toad sighed.
Tabitha looked at him, "Slow dancing? Or just dancing in general?"
Toad shrugged, "I don't know. Whatever I guess."
Tabitha cringed, "Then Ricky Martin is not your best bet!" She then dug through Elizabeth's collection of CD's, "Here's one!" She smiled, pulling out a CD.
She replaced the CD in the stereo with the new one in her hand. She grabbed onto Elizabeth's hand, as Rogue and Kitty sat next to Toad, "So, how'd your first day as a major hottie go?" Kitty smiled, looking at Toad.
Toad shrugged, "Kinda weird, if you ask me." He sighed.
Rogue raised an eyebrow, "Why?"
Toad shrugged again, and then looked at the two girls at his side, "You really think I'm hot?" He nervously asked.
Kitty playfully nudged Toad, "Of course! And with the right attitude, you'll like, totally be the most sought out guy in school!" She smiled.
Toad smiled, and then turned his attention to Elizabeth and Tabitha, who began dancing to the replaced song, "Can't Get You Outta My Head". Tabitha looked at Toad, and smiled, "Come on, Toad! Get over here! You're not gonna learn by sittin and watchin!" She smiled.
Toad nervously stood, and Tabitha pulled on his arms towards her and Elizabeth. He stood in between the two girls nervously, as they danced with him. "Now, start moving your hips, Toad!" Kitty instructed from the bed.
Toad looked at her nervously, and began to move his hips to the rhythm of the song. Rogue shook her head, smiling, as she glared at poor Toad, trying to dance. Elizabeth smiled, and grabbed onto Toad's hands, and moved them up with hers, as they danced. "Okay, now start freakin!" Tabitha snapped at the two with a smile.
Toad gulped, as Elizabeth took his hands and put them to her back. "Relax, and move with the music." Elizabeth smiled.
Toad closed his eyes nervously, and then opened them, as he noticed Elizabeth grinding herself against him. "That's it!" Tabitha smiled, as she began dancing behind Toad.
Rogue and Kitty couldn't fight their laughter. They noticed Toad beginning to relax, and dance with Elizabeth and Tabitha, and he looked up at the two girls on the bed, and grinned. Rogue and Kitty smiled, giving him a thumbs up. Kitty leaned towards Rogue, "What do you think?" She whispered.
Rogue looked at Kitty with question, "About what?"
Kitty gestured to Toad and Elizabeth, "Them two?"
Rogue looked at her best friend with the newly made over mutant, "Well, I don't know. It seems just too weird." She then looked at Kitty, "But, Toad is a lot nicer than Pietro!" She smirked.
The song ended, and Toad and Elizabeth smiled, stopping the dance. Tabitha gasped as she heard the CD switch to an N'Sync song, "Dirty Pop". She then pushed Toad, "I love this song!" She snapped.
Toad fell onto Elizabeth on the floor, letting out a squeal as they fell. Tabitha began dancing to the song, an obviously synchronized dance that she had made up. "Tabitha!" Rogue and Kitty snapped.
Tabitha ignored them, and continued to dance. Toad looked down at Elizabeth, and they stared at each other as he was on top of her, "Whoops. Sorry." Toad nervously gulped, "It was an accident this time, I swear." He told her.
Elizabeth smiled, glaring up at him, "It's okay!" She grinned.
Rogue nudged Kitty, and gestured to Toad and Elizabeth, who still lied on the floor. Kitty looked, and exchanged glances with Rogue. "Oh oh." Kitty smiled.
Everyone turned their attention to the door, as it swung open. "Ah ha!" Pietro growled.
Toad stood up, and helped Elizabeth to her feet. "Pietro! What are you doing here?!" Elizabeth snapped.
Pietro walked towards Toad, "So, you think you're the object of Betsy's affection now, huh?!" Pietro hissed.
Toad rolled his eyes, "Look, you're going with someone else to the dance, Quick Whiner!"
Pietro grabbed onto Toad, trying to shove him. Toad immediately grabbed back onto Pietro, and they stood, trying to push each other. "Oh geez!" Rogue snapped. She then grabbed the two fighting boys, and pulled them apart, "Stop it you morons!" She growled.
"No, you all just leave me and little Pietro alone for a moment! I need to have a little talk with him!" Elizabeth snapped, grabbing onto Pietro's arm.
The others in the room looked at her, and walked out. Toad was the last to leave, and he closed the door behind him. Pietro then turned to Elizabeth. "Please do not tell me you're going for him!" Pietro snapped, gesturing to the door that Toad had just closed.
Elizabeth crossed her arms across her chest, glaring at Pietro, "Pietro, he's my friend. He needed a date to the dance! Besides, you took four girls to the dance last year! And you had a little fan base this year! Toad was hoping to go with someone this year! I felt bad for him!" Elizabeth growled, "Besides, he's a nice guy, Pietro."
Pietro rolled his eyes, "Fine, if you wanna go with the wart face, that's no problem by me! Don't go complaining and bitching to me about how I act with my date if you get jealous!" Pietro snapped, as he turned to the door.
"Oh, believe me, Pietro, I won't!" She finished, as he left.
