Phone Convo

"Tell me about it. Like, this morning is going to be a living nightmare."

"Hasn't it been that already?"

Lance asked with his groggy, slightly teasing voice. On the other end of the phone, Kitty muffle a giggle.

"Now that you mention it...it has been. Kurt and his band of manics have been at their wake up call for...."

There was a quick pause as Kitty glanced over at her alarm clock.

"About an hour now. I still don't think they've managed to get Rogue up...."

Her voice trailed off as she gave a quick listen to the chaos outside in the hallway. One quick scream from Jamie told all...the queen of darkness had been awaken before noon. Amazing as it was, Kitty only gave a quick smirk and started listening to Lance drone on about his morning.

"What are you X-geeks going to be doing today?"

Lance finished off teasingly. He heard Kitty give him a testing sigh.

"Like, I don't know. I know I'm totally going to hit the pool. What about you guys, Lance?"

"I don't know...I think Wanda will be playing 'Kill Todd' for the better part of the day. Other than that...your asking the wrong person."

"Well, like, why don't you drag them down here to hang out? I'm sure the professor won't mind!"

Lance debated for a moment, then nodded to himself.

"Sure, I'll bring them down for a while. When do you want us to be over there?"

"Oh...like, maybe an hour or two?"

"Alright, I'll see you then I guess."

"Cool! Bye Lance!"

Kitty hung up the phone quickly, forcing herself out from the sanctuary of blankets and into the arctic temperature to get dressed.

Lance wandered aimlessly downstairs, looking at the small group in the living room and kitchen.

"Get up and lets move. We just got an invite to crash the mansion."
