~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scott woke up early, as usual, to get ready for school. He was almost always up about 2 hours before school and an hour before Jean. Scott went ahead and got himself ready for school and spent a little time studying. When it was about 30 minutes until school and Jean nor Rachel had come down yet, he began to get worried. Scott just thought that maybe the two had slept in or something…
Scott made his way up the stairs and over to Jean's room. As he approached, he heard sounds like the running of feet, the movement of furniture and other loud noises. Scott ran to Jean's door and put one hand up to his sunglasses while the other banged on the door. "Jean?! Jean!" Scott yelled.
No answer. Just the sound of Jean saying: "No! Not that one!" Scott kicked the door in and looked around the room as if expecting 50 men to come at him. But all he got was a little girl scream and the angry eyes of Jean Grey!
"SCOTT!" Jean yelled as she put her hands on her hips. "What is wrong with you?!" Jean asked as the small figure of Rachel ran from the top of the bed to Jean's leg. Jean was standing in her closet looking at close and trying them on; luckily she was dressed! Nonetheless, Scott stared dumbly at Jean.
"But…! I heard…! There was…!" Scott tried to explain, but Jean's green eyes scorned Scott's every word as she glared at him. Rachel held onto Jean's leg with all her strength.
"Why did you do that?!" Rachel asked and Scott hesitated.
"I-I just wanted to see if you two were alright! Oh, man, Jean, Rachel, I'm so sorry! I just heard…!" Scott began to say.
"Scott," Jean sighed, "…it's alright, just start thinking before you decide to play hero! The door was unlocked, you know." Rachel, who had begun to calm down, laughed at the way Jean had informed the stunned Scott that the door had been unlocked. Scott felt like a complete idiot…
"I'm really sorry how can I make it up to you...?" Scott asked as he looked down at Rachel. She looked away from him, but her stomach growled hungrily. Scott smiled and bent down to Rachel's level. "How about I take you two out to breakfast?" Scott asked with a hopeful smile up at Jean. She looks so beautiful to him… she was in her blue jeans and a dark red t-shirt that brought out the real dark green color of her wonderful eyes… Scott stood up to gaze into her deep pools of green but Jean merely sighed.
"I'm sorry, Scott, Duncan already said he'd take Rachel and me out to breakfast," Jean said as she began to walk out of her room with Rachel very close behind.
"Who's Duncan?" Rachel asked, fearful. Scott followed them, just a 'little' angry from hearing the name of his 'rival for Jean's heart's' name.
"He's… a very good friend of mine, Rachel, I think you'll like him." Jean said cheerfully, unaware of the damage she was dealing to Scott. But Scott just smiled at Jean whenever she looked his way and nodded his head. Scott grabbed his coffee that he had left on the coffee table in the living room, then sat down on the couch.
"Hmph," Scott said, jealous. Just as Jean was about to tell Scott to not be such a control freak, a knock on the door sounded. Jean opened the door to reveal a grinning Duncan.
"Hello, little girl. Is you mommy home?" Duncan asked in a joking voice to get 'his girl' to laugh. He was successful.
"Oh, stop… Rachel?" Jean asked as she looked behind her. Rachel was still standing near the stairs and looked fearful… Duncan stepped in the house and smiled at Rachel.
"Hey, little lady!" Duncan said, "I'm Duncan! But you can call me your big-bro!"
Rachel smiled slightly and came towards Duncan. "I'm Rachel, big-bro…" Rachel said timidly. Duncan made a silly face as he extended his hand to her. She giggled and took it in a gentle and loose hand shake.
"Ready to go out to stuff our faces?" The college jock asked and yet again, Rachel nodded, then giggled and smiled widely.
"Alright! Let's go!" Duncan said as he took Rachel up in his arms then put her on the back of his neck for a piggy back ride. Jean smiled widely and laughed as Duncan took Rachel outside.
"Scott? Are you ok? You look flustered…" Jean said as she looked over at Scott… his face was red with anger. How dare Duncan for taking Scott's role as the father/brother figure?! How dare he for showing up and ruining every plan that Scott has to try to get Jean's heart?! As much as Scott wanted to voice these thoughts, he couldn't. He had to respect Jean and her choices…
"I'm fine. Go and have fun… I'll see you in class." Scott said, disappointed.

"Ready for your first day, Ginger?" Amanda asked the bubbly girl. She was ecstatic! Literally bouncing off of the sidewalk around Kurt and Amanda, who were walking side by side.
"Yeup! I can't wait, no I can't!" Ginger said as she jumped along side Kurt and Amanda as they walked to the college.
"Iz Ginger-daughter going to talk like zis all day?" Kurt asked Ginger as he tried to keep his eyes on her.
"Yes I am! Am I? yes!" Ginger said and smiled. Kurt and Amanda looked at each other and laughed lightly. Ginger had been talking like 'Sam I am' from Green Eggs and Ham, the Dr. Sues book. After 10 minutes, the 'family' arrived at the daycare portion of the Bayville College and it was hard to stop Ginger from running in and jumping all over the teacher. Kurt and Amanda walked around the day care with her since they, along with the others in their Juvenile Care class, had spent the past 2-3 years working in here and working with the kids here.
Kurt and Amanda showed Ginger the elementary style desks and to the toys. They told her some rules like sharing and playing with the other children, and basically told her everything the class would do with plenty of "Aww… Ginger? Can I take your place here?" from Kurt. Soon, a bright boy came up to Ginger and poked her lightly on the shoulder.
"Hi, Ginger! Wanna play?" Ben asked and Ginger nodded.
"Hi, Ben! Alright!" Ginger said, then turned to Kurt and Amanda. "Bye Amanda-moma! Bye Kurt-papa!"
"Hmm… wasn't Ben one of the children at the orphanage that got adopted?" Amanda asked. Kurt looked around the class room and saw that Hayli was in the corner playing with a Barbe doll.
"I zink so, and zere is another one…" Kurt said. He looked next to Hayli and Kitty was right there. "Ey, let's go say 'ello to Kitty!" Kurt said and began to walk towards Kitty… but Amanda had to wonder, where are Ben's parents? Then, sure enough, the voices of Lance and Rogue could be heard from outside the class room…
~
"Fine! Ya can jus split! Ah won't care! Ah cun do this by myself anyway…" Rogue said as she glared at Lance.
"Ha! Yeah, sure! And let you get all the credit?! I bet you would love to see me fail, wouldn't you? Besides, Rogue, you need me!" Lance sneered. "I wouldn't leave you alone with a child even if you DO pass all four years of this course! Remember, I have nearly 4 years of this class while you're barely going on three. You need me." Lance said as he poked Rogue in her shoulder with his index finger hard. Rogue was by no means a weak girl, but Lance is a strong guy, so she was pushed back slightly. Rogue scowled. This was the second time Lance had pushed her and she was starting to wonder if he and she would ever get along…
With a deep sigh, Rogue looked up at the light blue sky. The day was calm and there was a gentle breeze that coexisted with the warm light of the sunshine to make it a perfect day for nature…
"Rogue!" Amanda called out to the daydreamer. Rogue awoke and looked to where the voice had come from. She spotted Kurt, Amanda and Kitty walking her way. She put on a half smile as they stood beside her.
"Like, hiya!" Kitty said cheerfully. "How are you?"
"Ok… I guess.." Rogue said.
"Huh? Vat iz wrong?" Kurt asked, detecting the hint of depression in Rogue's voice. Rogue shrugged and shook her head.
"Nuthin'. How are you guys?" Rogue asked, trying to turn the conversation away from her.
"I'm doing good! Oh my god! You guys, last night Pietro scared me sooo badly! He came home late and was really loud when he came in! It totally freaked out Hayli and me!" Kitty said and giggled along with Amanda. Rogue laughed a 1/4th hearted laugh to please the 'crowd'.
"Hi, you guys!" Jean said as she ran over to the group after exiting the childcare building. "How are you all doing?"
"Hi, Jean. I'm good." Amanda said.
"We are ezellent!" Kurt said.
"Like, hiya, Jean! I'm pretty good how are you and Scott doing?" Kitty asked as Jean joined them.
"Just fine!" Jean said. Rogue merely rolled her eyes and sighed. She looked away from the group towards the sidewalk near by. "How are all of you doing with your families?" Jean asked them.
"Prob'ly not as good as you…" Rogue muttered.
"Huh?" Jean asked.
"Ah Dun't have time right now to talk about it," Rogue said.
"Oh… ok, sorry I guess…" Jean said and the group fell silent as they thought their own separate thoughts until Amanda came up with an idea.
"Hey! I know! How about we all get together this Saturday and go to the park? ALL of our families, too! So we can get to know each other!" Amanda said.
"Yeah! That totally sounds like a good idea!" Kitty said and Jean nodded.
"Vell, look at that! Beauty and brains! Zat sounds good!" Kurt said as he looked over at Amanda who blushed and laughed.
"Sarry ta crash your little idea, but what about the brotherhood ego?" Rogue asked.
"Rogue… this is a time for all of us to come together and just have a little fun… let our kids meet the other ones… I'm sure the brotherhood will understand, too." Jean said softly and Rogue just rolled her eyes.
"Whatever…" Rogue said.
"Hey! Let's invite Wanda and Todd, too! They're in our class, also!" Amanda said.
~
Sean looked around at the other kids in the classroom with uncertainty. Sure, he had let Todd and Wanda in his room and take him here… but seeing these familiar kids from the orphanage he wasn't so sure anymore. He looked back at Wanda, who was right behind him, with his one good eye and a pleading look.
"I don't want to stay here, Wanda…" Sean said and Wanda bent down to his level. She looked into his eyes with a gentle look.
"Why not, Sean?" Wanda asked.
"I just don't! Todd! Take me back!" Sean yelled, raising his voice to them as Todd entered the room and stood to the side of Wanda.
"Sean-" Wanda began.
"Hey, relax! Everything's fine! We'll pick ya up after class is out, kay?" Todd asked with his happy-go-lucky smile. Sean looked to the floor then, with out a word, walked away from Wanda and Todd and to one of his only friends in the edge of the class room; his solitude.
"Todd… I'm still worried about him…" Wanda said as she turned around and walked out of the classroom. Todd put his arm around Wanda's shoulders and 'held' her.
"It's alright, snookums! He'll open up to us!" Todd said happily. Wanda merely rolled her eyes and ignored the fact that Todd was 'holding' her. She really didn't notice it until Kurt and Amanda came up to them… Then, Wanda elbowed Todd hard in the side and Todd let go of Wanda to hold his (now bruised) side.
"Hi, you guys! Would you like to go to the park with us on Saturday? All of us from class are going!" Amanda said cheerfully. Wanda was about to turn them down, but Kurt spoke right after Amanda.
"It vould be a good time for all of our kids to meet each ozer!" Kurt said.
"…alright. Why not?" Wanda said and looked over at Todd. "We'll be there."
