Disclaimer: I don't own any of the girls that starred in the X-men film and sadly, none of the guys. :( Then again, I'd never hold any hottie against their will.......cough*I'm a liar*cough
*sniff* I'm very sorry it took me so long! I was once again away from civilization *sigh* For patient people, I'm sorry. For impatient people, God Bless You for waiting. But luckily, I have two weeks till I leave again so, it's all good. J R/r!
**************************************************************************************************
Training was not going very well for Pyro and Psych. This time, their assignment just happened to be learning to trust your partner, in which your partner would do whatever they could to stop a stone, about the size of a pool ball, from hitting you. This was obviously not their task because either of them wanted to work with the other and when they were forced to, found other ways to inflict as much pain as possible. For about an hour, they dodged the stone that can flying straight toward their face and ended up hitting one of the other kids. This annoyed the X-men very much but they decided to keep practice going as usual.
Twenty minutes overdue, Scott dismissed them from training for the day, but asked Psych and Pyro to stay.
"I expected better behavior from you two, letting your personal feelings get in the way! I mean, look at you two! (Psych's left eyes was swollen and Pyro had a bloody nose.) What if this had been a life and death situation? Now, I want you two to stay here and practice until you two can learn to put your pettiness aside and work with each other." Pyro stared right back at Scott with a sort of resentment in his eyes and Psych stared at her feet. "Who wants to volunteer to watch these two?" No one volunteered for a while until Nick finally said, "Okay. I will." Psych looked up then rolled her eyes when Scott said, "Okay then, it's settled. Nick will stay out here and watch John and Tamara until the both successfully destroy thirty stones." Then everyone walked back up to the mansion, leaving the three standing there.
The first fifteen went fine, and except for the occasional glare, Psych nor Pyro communicated with each other. A little later, Nick started to yawn and doze off and when he awoke he asked, "Would you guys mind if I went in to hit the sack? I mean, could you guys please complete this without supervision?" Psych looked at him and said, "Sure." Then, rubbing his eyes, he walked inside. Pyro waited another minute or two before he said, "This is bull!" "You just realized that?" Tamara remarked. He glared at her then blew up another stone.
"Gosh, you've always been so rude to me! And for what?! Huh?!"
When there was no answer, she shook her head and laughed, "OH, and to think I thought you were nice that night in the ra-"
"You think you're so high and mighty, don't you!? Miss come into the mansion and think you can change everything!"
She snapped, "Don't you dare make this about me!"
He scoffed, "Bet that's the first time you've ever said that."
Tamara looked at him in disbelief for a second, then said, "First off, you don't know anything about me, and second, where do you get off being so mean to me? I didn't do anything to you! Gosh, I can't believe I ever thought that there could be something between us."
Psych started to walk back up to the mansion before she heard Pyro say, "Would that be so bad!?"
She stopped and turned around then without meaning to, said, "What!?" Stepping closer, "Did you just say?"
He seemed to be choosing his words carefully, "Would it be so bad if there were something between us?"
Completely abashed, Tamara managed to stammer, "Are-Are you saying what--"
He interrupted her by saying, "Oh, forget it." then grabbing her and kissing her.
After a good couple of minutes, Tamara pulled away and they both started laughing. "We're crazy."
*************************************************************************************************
The next morning, Psych woke up earlier than Rogue and crept downstairs. She peeked into the kitchen and was surprised to see Rain sitting at the table by herself. "Wonder where he is," she thought. This was quickly answered because two hands grabbed her and pulled her into a broom closet.
"Good Morning."
"Mornin'"
"So, I was wondering if you'd meet me out by the east court around 11:00 tonight?"
"Why?"
"Because I wanna take you somewhere."
"Okay."
They kissed again then Pyro walked out, and a few minutes later so did Tamara.
After a day of not paying attention in class and coming up with the best break up line, the time came. After her class was dismissed, she told Rogue to hold on, then went to get Colossus. She found him coming out of his classroom. "Hey babe."
"Hey, umm we need to talk."
"Okay, what's on your mind?"
She pulled him aside, and after making sure they were out of earshot, said, "There's something I need to tell you."
"There's something I've been meaning to tell you too."
"Well you go ahead," she said, wanting him to say whatever he had to before she broke up with him.
"Well, I've been doing a lot of thinking about us, lately, (he grabbed her hands) and I feel like it's time for us to go our separate ways. Believe me, it's not you, it's just--"
Tamara cut him off, "No, please don't go on. I'm fine. I understand."
He stopped, "Oh, well, you had something you wanted to tell me, do you still want-"
"No, it doesn't matter."
"Oh, then I guess I'll see you around then."
"Yeah. Sure"
Colossus let go of her hands and walked off. Psych just stood there with her arms still hanging and with a sort of did-that-just-happen? Look on her face. Rogue came by and asked her if she was alright. "He broke up with me! He actually dumped me." Rogue looked at her apologetically, "But I thought that's what you wanted."
Still shocked, she responded, "It was, but having it actually happen was a little weird."
"Oh, it'll be alright. This gives us an excuse to stay up late and pig out on goodies."
Suddenly snapping out of her shock, Tamara remembered her promise to Pyro. "OOO, I can't. I have somewhere to go."
Rogue gave her a quizzical look, "Where?"
"I volunteered helping Storm on grading some tests while she's away on business."
"Oh, okay."
The rest of the day, nothing more was said about it, and finally one thing was on Psych's mind: where in the world was Pyro going to take her?"
After dinner, she spent hours trying to figure out what to wear considering she didn't know whether the circumstances were formal or come-as-you-are. Finally around 10:30, she decided to wear a slacks and a maiden top. Then around 10:50, she quietly set out toward the east court. When she got there, no one was there until she heard someone calling her name. It was Pyro and it was coming from behind a tree. "Psych, hurry come here!"
She ran over quickly and stood there. "Hey." "Hey, you dressed up." "Not really, I didn't really know wha to wear-" "Ssh! We gotta be really quiet." She agreed and he set a distant tree on fire once again as a distraction.
They stole one of Scott's cars again and after ten minutes of silence, decided to turn on the radio. They turned it on and found that a Celine Dion cd was playing. They both started to laugh and Tamara said, "I really do hope that's Jean's." Pyro changed it to a local rock station and they listened for a few minutes before Psych asked, "So, where are we going anyway?"
"No need to ask because we're there," he said.
The place was small and was covered mostly by trees. Not until they got to the door did Tamara realize this was a diner. Immediately, Psych felt overdressed and young because everyone seemed to be staring at them, but Pyro just walked by like he didn't even notice. They sat down and a waitress arrived. "What'll it be kids?"
He simply said, "Hey, Betty. I'll have the number one and she'll have----" he stared at her and she looked at her menu then said, "The number four with cheese." "Alrighty kids," said the waitress, then she walked off. Psych took the time to ask, "So, do you come here a lot?"
"Pretty often"
Her eyebrow raised and noticing, he said, "Only with other friends and no, I've never brought a girl here before."
She laughed and their food was brought out.
When much time flew by and little conversation, Psych asked, "So, do we tell other people about us or not?"
He ate a French frie then said, "I dunno. I mean they'll think we're nuts."
"I think we should just not tell anyone right now, then."
"OO, like sneaking around?"
"Yeah, until they see that it is possible for us to get along."
After eating and saying goodbye to Betty, they decided it was time to get back to the school. The ride home was full of singing along to the radio and asking questions about likes and dislikes. When they finally got back, they managed to get back over the fence and hide behind a bush. "When I count to five, take off running and stop when you get past the light," advised Pyro. She nodded and was about to start running when a rustle came from the bush. Both Psych and Pyro sat there dead quiet, hearts beating rapidly. When the guard walked by, they both took a deep breath and prepared to run again. He managed to count to 4 and right before take off, a light shined over them and a voice said, "Who's there?!"
**************************************************************************************************
OOOO, caught again! Can these kids ever get away with something? Also, forgive me for the cheesiness, I don't usually write anything romantic or let alone, that makes sense. Once again sorry for the delay, (Great! Now I sound like a pilot or stewardess!) and I'm working hard not to let it happen again er anymore.
*sniff* I'm very sorry it took me so long! I was once again away from civilization *sigh* For patient people, I'm sorry. For impatient people, God Bless You for waiting. But luckily, I have two weeks till I leave again so, it's all good. J R/r!
