Here we go... If you're reading this before the latest chapter of Inner Conflicts, I suggest you read the other first. Don't know how well I did it, but afterwords you might need the emotional uplift...*evil laugh*
*coughs*
Um... enjoy.
"Oh My God...We're Gay!!""...We?"
"Lance Alvers, you are like, SO GAY!!" screamed Kitty, drawing the attention of many nosy teenages.
Lance stood in front of her, face burning bright, to stunned to say anything in his defense.
Kitty whirled around and stomred off, leaving one very dumped Lance behind.
"What'd I do?" he finally called out, after everyone had left.

Lance Alvers and Kitty Pryde were on of the most mismatched couples of Bayville high. However, they were so plain that no one paid that much attention, save for a few mutterings of "I can't see what she sees in him" and "He's just after some booty."
Lance was the typical bad boy, somewhat cute but bad news. . . and Kitty was the typical studious girl, cute and plain at the same time.
The only ones that seemed to notice them were their own crowds.
The Brotherhood were always teasing Lance on his crush.
The X-men were always nagging about what bad news Lance was, especially Kurt.
Poor boy was obviously jealous.
And it soft of made Kitty feel flattered that someone was vying for her attention. Not that it really mattered. She would only be Lance.
Although, at the moment it didn't look that way.
Lance was suppose to remember that this was their one month anniversary. And the dumb ass actually forgot!! How stupid could he be!
She tried hinting at it, gave him a silver chain and a card. Tried to see if he bought her anything. But no. . . he just thanked her and asked her what it was all for.
She tried to be patient telling him that it was for their anniversay, and he had stood there like a statue and asked "What anniversary?"
That was what made her blow up.
She broke up with him.
Well, if one could read between the lines.
After all, she hadn't exactly said she's broken up with him.
Everyone knows when one partner insults the other and walks away, he or she had just broken things off out of anger. In a few days, Lance would come to her and ask for forgiveness, which she , of course, would give, and the two would have made up and be going out again.
Kitty stopped and leaned against the lockers, a sappy smile on her face.
She guessed that in one week, Lance would come crawling back to her.

Lance was one very confused boy.
One month anniversary?
One month of what? Dancing around and hanging out? He always thought anniversaries were for like birthdays, weddings, and dating.
As far as he knew, he and Kitty never got into the dating thing yet.
Sure she hung out with him a lot lately, but she never kissed him. Gave him small pecks, like a sister to a brother, but never one of those steamy kisses that he always dreamed out.
Lance shook his head. Maybe the girl was going through PMS. If that were the case, then he was going to avoid her at all costs for the next week. And a couple more days for good measure.

Kurt was one unhappy little mutant.
He hated coming to school and watching his secret crush interacting with his rival.
Well, maybe not so secret crush.
There were a few people that new about it.
Well, most people.
Okay, everyone.
He hung around at the stairwell, waiting for Evan.
A few moments later, Evan showed up.
"Hey, how's today going?" he asked.
"The same," muttered Kurt. "Having to hear about Kitty saying 'I know I shouldn't but I really like Lance.'"
Evan remained silent for a moment, eyes blinking.
"I'm sorry," he finally said.
"No, you're not," snorted Kurt, before breaking out into laughter.
Evan could be such a dork when it came to these matters.
"Just wait until you find the right one. Then you'll see."
Evan grinned. "Hell, the right one wouldn't go out with another. As soon as she sees me, it'll be all over for the rest."
Kurt muttered something that sounded suspisciously like "Ego."

It was one boring day for Tabitha.
Things slightly turned for the better when she caught Kitty's outburst at Lance.
Ooo, she thought. Lance will be pissed that she called him gay. No one insults his manhood and gets away with it. She left the scene and made her way to the nearest stair well.
She paused when she saw Kurt waiting there.
She quickly ducked back and pulled out a mirror to check her make up and everything.
It wasn't that she was infatuated with Kurt or anything. It was just that it was so fun to tease the boy. Well, he was cute in either form, but he was like a little brother. There was no way she would go any further than that. Plus, it was so fun to watch him get all flustered with her flirting.
Tabby stepped out to go do her stuff and spotted that Evans was already there.
She shook her head and decided to walk past them.
It wasn't any fun when others were around.
As she passed the stairwell, she clearly heard Kurt saying "I know I shouldn't, but I really like Lance."
She paused.
A few moments, she heard Evan say, "I'm sorry."
Tabitha ran.
She ducked into the nearest restroom and looked into the mirror.
Oh my gosh, did I hear right? She thought wildly. Kurt likes Lance?
Then she gasped. Was that why Kitty broke up with Lance? When she said he was so gay, was it actually because he was? That would explain his dumbfound expression. He was shocked that she told his secret to the world.
The idea made her giddy.
Adter all the slash and yaoi fiction she had stumbled across in the internet, Tabitha always tried to read past several actions. Never would she have guessed that she would have actually stumbled across a gay couple.
"Yes!" she exclaimed, making a victory sign into the mirror in front of her. "This is going to be so cool! Wait till I tell my friends!"
Someone stepped next to her to wash his hands.
Tabitha froze and glanced to her right.
A very perplexed looking freshman boy stared back at her.
The door opened and several more guys walked in.
A few moments later, a very amused looking Tabitha ran out of the bathroom as shrieking boys cried out "Girl in the bathroom!!"
tbc. . .
