~ "One of these days I wont be afraid of staying with you."
-Michelle Branch
Things would be different if I owned the characters featured. More
Lancitty, more slash, more people would like Tabitha, less fuzzy blue
bamfer angst.
A/N: I apologize prior for the format. If anyone knows how to get the story to stay the way it was originally typed in word please please tell me in a review! (I'm not above begging about this. I know how much of a bitch it is to read when it's all smooshed together!) ~
"I notice that the Iron Chef is now marinating the surf clams with a mixture of soy sauce and white wine. What is that? Iron Chef Sakai has now added eel bladder to the mixture! 30 minutes to go and Kitchen Stadium is bursting with enthusiasm and new concoctions!"
Scott sat down on the couch beside Kitty, turning his attention to the dubbed kitchen show on the television. He mentally noted never to eat any Asian 'cuisine' again as a small man wearing an oversized chef's hat squeezed a gray goopy substance from what looked like an eel.
"Ewww! How grody is that?!?!" Kitty swiped the remote from between the cushions, quickly changing channels before anymore squeezing could be done.
Scott chuckled as Kitty rapidly surfed through the channels before reluctantly stopping on the local news. Kitty's eyes grew wide with shock as a large picture of Lance was seen in the right hand corner of the screen. Scott leaned forward, not knowing what to make of picture. He reached over and took the remote out of Kitty's grip, and turned the volume up.
"In other new today, local teenager Lance Alvers has been put on suspension by the city mayor. What makes this case unique though, is instead of Juvenile detention; Mr. Alvers will be sent to Xavier's School for the Gifted in hopes of being turned into a productive citizen."
The news anchor tucked her brassy blonde hair behind her ears, continuing to read other news from the teleprompter. Neither Scott nor Kitty heard what she said. They were in such a state of disbelief they didn't even notice Jean and Ororo entering the room.
"Are you two okay?" Jean ran her fingers through her long red hair, intent on Scott's face.
Without warning, Kitty and Scott burst out in a fit of laughter. Ororo turned to Jean, and they exchanged confused looks. Trying to regain his composure, Scott took in several deep breaths, grasping his stomach.
"Alvers. Ooh hoo hoo hoo. He,hoo hoo hoo, *snort* He-he's coming to the Institute!" he then gave in and cackled along with Kitty who was now in tears. Ororo nodded her head to verify what Scott had attempted to say was true.
"Mr. Alvers has long been a person that Professor Xavier has wanted a chance at. We both believe that if guided in the correct direction, Lance has amazing potential."
Jean's look of confusion was instantly replaced with what could only be identified as disdain. Scott and Kitty had finally regained their composure. Kitty stood up and faced Ororo.
"Mrs. Munroe, when is Lance coming?" her voice was laced with interest and a good amount of affection. Ororo smiled at the girl who was now borderline giddy.
"I expect he will be escorted here sometime in the late afternoon." She then glanced at her watch and began walking towards the door. Turning towards the three she warmly smiled again, "I'm sorry I need to go attend to some business at the grocery store. Could one of you please remind Mr. Logan that we are having the feast tomorrow and he needs to get his items before then since stores close early on Sunday? Thank you."
After she had left, the three remaining waited in the silence for several moments. Scott then turned to Kitty, smirking.
"Well Kitty, you sounded awfully excited when you heard the news about the delinquent coming to stay. I thought you were past that whole infatuation."
"I am not excited about it! I was just curious! C-u-r-i-o-u-s! Curious!" Kitty wrinkled her nose up in disgust as she turned on her heel and left the room in a rush.
Jean and Scott grinned at each other. Kitty was more than easy to get rid of.
