Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

Thanks to all who reviewed, and thanks to all who cared about me ^_^ You guys are stars, the lot of you, lol. Yes, I'm feeling much better today, although not everything I was worried about has been sorted out, it's got better. I want a big hand for Kurt who took over doing this bit yesterday *Claps* I'll sort out review answers at the end! Please keep on reviewing!

************************************************************************

"Kurt?" Inquired Ororo, knocking on his door. She waited for a moment, then Kurt appeared in the doorway, clutching his CD player. "Kurt, come on, we're all going to the mall." She said, taking his CD player out of his hands and placing it on the small table next to his room.

"I don't want to go." Replied Kurt, going to shut the door, but Ororo stopped him.

"We're going to the mall." She said firmly. Kurt knew he had no choice, he also knew that Ororo was hoping that everyone would forget they were mad at him for the day. Unfortunately for Kurt, this didn't happen, and he didn't fail to notice the glares he was getting as he climbed in the back of Logan's jeep. (A/N I don't know if Logan has a jeep, but he does in this story.) Kitty, Evan and Jean climbed into the back of Scott's car, giving Kurt looks.

"I really don't vant to go." Muttered Kurt, as Ororo got in the car. He could see Scott arguing with Logan, and they weren't keeping their voices down. Much to Kurt's annoyance.

"Why is HE coming along?!" Demanded Scott, glaring at Logan as if it was his fault. "What if he goes berserk again and attacks a member of the public?! Attacking us is bad enough without him going for normal people!"

Logan gave Scott a look of utter resentment, realising that Kurt could hear every word Scott just said. "I don't believe he ever attacked you, Scott" He replied shortly. Then walked off to his own jeep. Logan has becoming more and more positive that Kurt had nothing to do with the attacks, but he wasn't sure.

Kurt sank lower into his seat as they set off, trying to hide from the stares that were coming at him from every direction. He hoped he could go off on his own at the mall, but he bet that they wouldn't trust him enough to do that.

Kurt decided to ask.

"Ororo? Can I go by myself at the mall?" Kurt didn't bother to try and hide the hopefulness in his voice. He watched Ororo and Logan exchange a glance his hopes sank faster than The Antonia Graza*, after it'd been blown up.

"I don't see why not." Replied Ororo cheerfully, smiling at Kurt from the rear view mirror.

"You don't?" Asked Logan incredulously, at the same time as Kurt who said.

"You trust me?" In an amazed voice. "But everyone else..." He trailed off remembering the way his team mates were treating him.

"Well, there are security camera's at the mall, and so if you do...I mean, if someone is attacked, we'd be able to see who did it!" Explained Ororo, as Logan turned into the parking lot.

As soon as he got out of the car, Kurt stuck his hands in his pockets and walked off. He heard Ororo calling 'meet us back here at 4:00!' and he glanced down at his holo-watch. Which, coincidentally and luckily, told the time as well as hiding his real image.

The last thing he heard when he walked into the mall was Kitty yelling; "YOUR LETTING HIM GO OFF ON HIS OWN?! LIKE, ARE YOU MAD?!"

Kurt wandered around for a bit, then found a restaurant and sat down at one of the tables, burying his face in his hands as he did. He was exhausted, he had hardly slept last night, worrying about the other X-men and if they hated him, the answer to which had become obvious. He didn't want to be hated, he hadn't done anything to them, he just didn't know how to make them realise this.

**The professor vasn't any help.** Thought Kurt bitterly, pouting slightly and staring at the table he was sitting at. There was a coffee stain on one side of it, which was suddenly covered by a hand.

"Yo! What do we have here?"

Kurt looked up startled to see Toad and Pietro standing by his table. Toad was smirking but Pietro was looking bored, he had his arms folded over his chest and a 'I'm-bored-and-have-pent-up-energy-to-loose' look on his face.

"It'sjustfuzzbutt." Replied Pietro, his speech so fast it was sometimes hard to catch. "Canwegonow?" He asked, really meaning 'we're going now.'

"Chill out Pietro!" Said Toad, giving Pietro a look. "Blue boy's all alone, where's the other X-geeks?" He asked, noticing the look on Kurt's face and frowning inwardly.

"Go away Toad." Replied Kurt quietly. Leaning back on his chair and folding his arms.

"Yo! I don't like that, it was an honest question!" Cried Toad, pretending to look shocked. "Have you fallen out with them or something?" He shrugged Pietro, who was trying to pull Toad out of the café, off him.

"Maybe." Answered Kurt shortly, wishing with all his might that they'd go away.

Toad and Pietro glanced at each other, then sat down smirking. The x-geeks were having a row, this was an opportunity to stir things up that they weren't going to miss.
