that this one is better. Please leave a review and tell me what you think
"So you live at the institute then?" Pietro asked walking Scout home. As hard as it was to keep to her slow pace, he was enjoying it.
"What are you getting at Pietro?" Scout asked eyeing him suspiciously.
"Nothing! It's just you seem too cool for those X-geeks." Pietro smirked.
"So they're a little dorky sometimes, but I get on with Rouge and she's cool." Scout laughed remembering Evan on fire.
"Rouge used to live with us you know." Pietro stated calmly.
"I know, she told me. She really misses you guys sometimes you know. But I didn't tell you so, ok?" Scout smiled.
"So what's keeping you there?" Pietro asked.
"Well, as I said, Rouge. And, there's the danger room and the X-jet, although it's a lame name it is so cool." Scout smiled remembering her first flight in it.
"Ok, what's really keeping you there?" Pietro sighed wishing she would stop dodging the question.
"Drop it Pietro, I mean it." Scout said coldly.
"What don't you trust me?" Pietro asked teasingly.
"PIETRO!" Scout shouted stopping and glaring at him.
"Ok, ok. I was just asking." Pietro sulked slightly. Scout sighed and began walking again, Pietro could see that they were almost at the institute.
"Look, you should come around to the brotherhood sometime. The doors always open, probably coz' Fred keeps breaking it." Pietro laughed slightly nervously.
"Yeah. Sure. See you tomorrow Pietro." Scout smiled and kissed him on the cheek. Pietro was frozen on the spot and could only feebly wave as Scout walked off.
Scout walked happily in to the institute, Scott jumped up when he saw he enter.
"You're late! What happened?!" Scott demanded.
"Nothing, I just walked home is all." Scout shrugged and walked off.
"It takes you two hours to walk home?!" Scott demanded.
"See woz washing the basketball pwactice." Even said with a mouthful of burrito as he walked by.
"Right." Scott said flicking a piece of burrito off of his jumper. He turned around to find Scout no longer standing where she had been, Scott frowned, he wouldn't let another of the Brotherhood worm their way into another of the X-girls' hearts.
"Hold it Sparky." Wolverine growled at Scout as she walked past him on the way to her room.
"What?" Scout asked turning around.
"You smell like that Quicksilver boy, what have you been up to?" Wolverine asked smelling Pietro on her very strongly, she's been around him a lot obviously, and Wolverine could tell he didn't just think of Scout as a friend.
"What is everyone's problem today?! It's no-one's business where I am or who I'm with!" Scout screamed almost hysterical.
"It's my business!" Wolverine shouted back.
"Just because you want to take an interest in my life all of a sudden it doesn't make everything I do your business!" Scout screamed now hysterical as she stormed into her room. Scout slammed the door and sent an electric charge through the door-handle, Wolverine yelped in pain as he tried to open the door on the other side. Scout turned around to find Rouge sitting on her bed reading a vampire novel.
"Bad day?" Rouge asked.
"Yeah. Where's kitty?" Scout asked as kitty was normally in the room that the three of them shared talking to lance and running up a huge phone bill.
"She's at the Brotherhood with Lance." Rouge replied looking back to her book. Scout grinned and grabbed a travel bag of Kitty's and began throwing clothes and her own things into it, she picked up her Samurai sword and tucked it into her belt.
"Where are you going?" Rouge asked looking up. Scout glanced at the door and then bent down and whispered in Rouge's ear.
"Promise you won't tell them?" Scout asked Rouge.
"Promise." She replied. Scout smiled and walked over to the window, opened it and jumped out and landed cat-like on the ground below.
The door bell rung loudly in the brotherhood house.
"You get it toad." Fred ordered looking at Todd AKA "Toad"
"No way man, why don't yo get Lance to get it?" Toad retorted and went back to eating flies.
"Coz' Lance is on planet Kitty." Fred laughed.
"Fine! I'll get it! Jeez you people are so lazy!" Pietro sighed throwing his hands in the air.
"Not all of us can move at the speed of light, yo!" Toad snapped and caught another fly.
Pietro opened the door and stood in shock when he saw scout standing there leaning against the doorframe with a slight smile playing on her lips.
"How long does it take you people to answer the door?" Scout grinned.
"What are you doing here?" Pietro asked confused.
"Half an hour ago you were practically begging me to come here and see you, what's changed?" Scout smiled staring at Pietro's blue eyes.
"I could ask you the same, you weren't exactly enthusiastic about the idea, what happened?" Pietro asked looking at the travel bag slung over Scout's shoulder.
"There's just too many rules and everyone is all over you, I can't stand it when people won't leave me alone." Scout sighed looking away.
"So you wanna stay here?" Pietro asked moving aside to let Scout in.
"I'd love to." Scout smiled walking in.
"So you live at the institute then?" Pietro asked walking Scout home. As hard as it was to keep to her slow pace, he was enjoying it.
