Brian banged his fist onto his sister's room door. "Alright, already!" He heard her yelling.
Elizabeth swung open the door, and Brian grinned at his twin, "What are you dressing up for Nathan?" He jokingly accused her.
Elizabeth examined herself. She wore black Capri's with black Mary Janes on her feet; she wore a dark blue spaghetti strapped tank top, with a thin silver choker around her neck. Her long silky dyed purple hair was put up in a series of twists, pinned with clear claw clips; the strands falling in the back. "What's wrong with it?"
Brian shrugged, smiling at his sister, "Nothing. Ready?" He asked, wrapping his arm around her shoulders.
Elizabeth nodded, closing the door after her, following her brother down the hallway.
*~*~*~*
"Where are you guys going?" Jean asked Rogue, curiously.
Rogue stood next to Nathan next to Elizabeth's silver BMW, in the carport. "Brotherhood house. They're having a party." Rogue answered.
Elizabeth, Brian, and Kitty walked into the carport. Peter, Tabitha, and Remy soon followed. "Hey, wait for us, chere!" Remy said.
Jean looked at them as they walked past her towards Peter's black Escalade, and Elizabeth's silver BMW. "I didn't know there was a party." Jean pouted.
"Well, maybe they didn't invite you for a reason, luv!" Elizabeth hissed, as she opened her car door.
"Ooh! Feisty!" Tabitha laughed, as she hopped into Peter's Escalade.
The group split up, between Peter's Escalade, and Elizabeth's BMW. "See ya!" Rogue yelled, waving her arm out the window, as Elizabeth started her car engine.
Elizabeth then peeled out of the carport, towards the mansion's gates. Peter soon followed, with the carport door closing behind them.
*~*~*~*
The house was crowded with people; the Brotherhood; and students from school. Elizabeth and Rogue squeezed past the crowd towards the kitchen. Nathan followed them, after Elizabeth had told him she would like to introduce him to the other 'mutants'. "Wanda!" Elizabeth squealed.
Wanda squealed from the counter, and rushed towards Elizabeth, throwing her arms around her. She gave her friend a tight hug, "Oh, I'm so glad you guys could come!" Wanda smiled.
Wanda pulled away, "You're pissed, luv, aren't you?" Elizabeth asked her with a smile.
Wanda shrugged, "Maybe." She then glanced at Nathan, who stood behind Elizabeth, "Is this him?" Wanda asked.
Elizabeth turned, gesturing to Nathan, "Yes, this is Nathan Brashear. He's new to the Institute. Nathan, this is Wanda. Wanda Maximoff." Elizabeth introduced.
Nathan and Wanda shook hands. "Hey." Nathan greeted.
"Well, hello!" Wanda smiled. She then examined him, "Hey, are you related to Rogue in anyway?" She asked, regarding his hair.
Nathan and Rogue glanced at each other, "Don't know." They said in unison.
Wanda shrugged, "Oh well, beers in the coolers there, there's also some hard liquor in case you guys want any." Wanda smiled.
"Okay, cool." Nathan smiled, as he walked towards the cooler.
Wanda, Rogue, and Elizabeth glared at him, "He's cute." Wanda smiled to her friends.
"Yeah, Betsy thinks so too!" Rogue teased.
Elizabeth scoffed, "No I don't!" She snapped.
Rogue lightly pushed her friend. Wanda glared at her, "Oh shut up, I know you do. You know you do." Wanda smiled.
Nathan returned to the three girls, with three beer bottles in his hands. "Here." He smiled, handing Elizabeth and Rogue their beer bottles.
"Thanks!" Rogue grinned, grabbing onto her beer.
Elizabeth smiled up at Nathan, taking the beer. Wanda and Rogue glanced at them, as they noticed the two mutants staring at each other, as they both began drinking out of the bottles. Wanda and Rogue snickered, "We'll leave you two alone!" Rogue grinned.
She grabbed onto Wanda's arm, pulling her through the kitchen. "So." Nathan grinned, walking to stand in front of Elizabeth.
Elizabeth looked up at him, "So."
"Who are the other mutants around here?" He asked.
"Babycakes!" They heard from behind Elizabeth.
Elizabeth turned, and smiled, "Toad!"
Toad hopped towards her, and stood in front of her, giving Elizabeth a hug. Elizabeth hugged him back, and glanced at Nathan, "This is Nathan Brashear. Nathan, this is Todd Tolansky. But he's known as Toad." Elizabeth smiled.
"What's up, yo!" Toad grinned.
"Hey." Nathan smiled, shaking Toad's hand.
Toad looked at Elizabeth, "Hey, Pietro's lookin' for ya." He said.
Elizabeth scoffed, rolling her eyes, "Goodness. What for?"
Toad shrugged, "Dunno. But I'm gonna go around saying what's up to everyone, I'll see you two later!" He grinned, before rushing into the crowd.
Elizabeth shook her head, drinking her beer. "Who's that?" Nathan asked suspiciously.
"Pietro? Oh my ex boyfriend." She sighed.
"You two just broke up?" Nathan asked.
Elizabeth shrugged, "Yeah, I guess you can say that." She then looked up at him, "Come on, let me introduce you to everyone else!" She smiled.
*~*~*~*
Pietro walked down the staircase, and looked into the living room. A young long haired blonde girl stood at his side. She linked her arm through his, "Say, Crystal, why don't you go into the kitchen and get us some beers?" Pietro told her.
"Okay!" She smiled, as she turned to walk into the kitchen.
Pietro saw a crowd in the living room, with the music blaring from the stereo. He saw an unfamiliar young man standing next to Elizabeth, as they talked with Remy, Rogue, Tabitha, and Brian. He soon saw his own sister, Wanda walking towards them. He made his way through the crowd, and nosed into his friends' conversation, "Hey!" He greeted.
"Hey, Pietro!" He heard them greet him cheerfully.
Pietro glanced at Elizabeth and Nathan. "Who's this, Betts?" He asked, gesturing to Nathan.
Elizabeth stuttered, "Oh, uhm, Nathan, this is Pietro, Pietro, Nathan." She quickly introduced.
Pietro and Nathan glared at each other. "He's new to the institute." Tabitha added with a grin.
Pietro grunted. "Where you from?" He asked.
"San Francisco." Nathan answered him coldly.
Pietro and Nathan continued to glare at each other. Pietro then looked to his side, as Crystal returned to him with two beer bottles. She handed him one, "Thanks doll." He smiled at her, as he wrapped his arm around her shoulders.
Elizabeth shook her head with a smirk, as she drank out of her beer bottle. She heard Nathan's voice in her mind, And when did this guy break up with you?
Two weeks ago, She answered him.
And he finds someone already? What a prick, Nathan's voice growled through Elizabeth's mind.
Elizabeth smiled, and placed her hand on his back, rubbing up and down on it. He glanced at her and smiled, I'm all up for makin' him jealous with you right now, if you want, He telepathically told her.
Elizabeth shook her head, "That's quite alright." She smiled.
Nathan only wrapped his arm around her shoulder. Elizabeth accepted it; she wrapped her arm around his waist. Rogue and Brian glanced at each other, with grins. Shut up, you two!, Elizabeth's voice burned through the two mutants' minds.
AN-Okay, okay, my brain is EXHAUSTED! Hehehe, I'm so tired. I'm trying to pull my mind back and forth between this story and my To The Futures one....I'll try to get a chappie posted on that one by tomorrow night at the latest...right now, my brain's too tired....now, Nathan's pic is back up on my profile; Fanficition fixed the problem with people not being able to see profile pics....so, by the way, the power of his telekinesis is evident through his left eye. It glows when he uses it. Kinda like Elizabeth's crimson red mark, which glows when she uses her telekinesis. So yeah, enjoy! More chappies to come on both stories, containing fluff, and smut, and humor, and on this one, FIGHTS! WOOHOO! DIE JEAN DIE! Okay, that's a lil over the top, but yeah.....WOOHOO! *passes out on her keyboard snoring*
