CH.7: Realizations

(A/N: Thanks everyone for the reviews. I keep forgetting to put the rest of the people in the story.)

"Hi Piotr," Kitty greeted happily.

"Hi Kitty," Piotr replied.

"Umm...I told Lance we were going," Kitty said. "Did he take it alright?"

"Oh yea he took it fine," Piotr lied. "Better than I thought he would at least."

"That's good," she said. "I didn't want him to get too mad."

"Yea, so what does your dress look like?" Piotr curiously asked.

"That's for me to know and you to find out," Kitty replied.

"Ok," Piotr said. "You look good in anything you wear anyways."

Kitty just blushed.

Lance was talking to Fred and Toad who obviously didn't care.

"Why would she go with Piotr?" Lance said. "What does he have that I don't?"

"Maybe he's better looking, nicer,-" Toad said getting interrupted by Lance.

"Shut up," Lance yelled.

"And maybe he's not as much of a winy, cry-baby like you," Fred said.

Lance left and was really mad.

Kurt was talking to Tabitha before school.

"Hey Kurt," Tabitha said. "I'm sooo excited about us going to the dance together."

"Me too," Kurt said.

"I hope I'm not too much for you to handle if you know what I mean," Tabitha said.

"Tabitha you're not as bad as everyone thinks," Kurt said. "Just try your hardest not to do something stupid and everything will be fine."

"I guess I could do that," Tabitha said

Scott couldn't stop thinking about Rogue in his first class, he was falling for her, but the very opposite was happening to Rogue. She wasn't thinking of him as a crush anymore just a friend. They were both oblivious to what each other was thinking, however. It's kind of funny how things work out when Rogue finally gets what she wants she doesn't want it anymore.

"Man," Scott thought. "Why do I all of a sudden like Rogue? I mean for the longest time I've been so obsessed with Jean and all of a sudden I'm not. Maybe Rogue likes me I mean she did ask me to the dance. Yea but now I know jean likes me now she asked Remy to the dance to make me jealous. I think I'm going to ask Rogue if she likes me at all because now I just have to know."

Meanwhile Rogue was thinking about Remy.

"What am I going to do?" Rogue thought. "I really want to go with Remy but I don't want to hurt Scott's feelings. Well, he does like Jean better he even said so. So he probably won't mind."

Scott and Rogue didn't really talk about what they were thinking until after school because they both thought it would be a little weird bringing that up in a conversation with everyone else there. So Rogue asked Scott to meet her in the bleachers after school that day.

"Hi," Scott said.

"Hey," Rogue replied.

"I know you wanted to talk to me but can I ask you something?" Scott asked.

"Sure," Rogue said.

"Why did you ask me to the dance?" Scott questioned, hoping she would say that she liked him.

"Well," Rogue began. "Umm...I guess I should just come right out and say it. I had a huge crush on you but after this I realized we should just be friends. Do you know what I mean?"

"Yea," Scott said. "Sure."

"Do you just want to go to the dance with Jean and me with Remy?" Rogue asked.

"Well, I still want to get back at her," Scott lied so he could spend more time with Rogue.

"Me too kind of," Rogue said. "I mean she only asked Remy to get back at me. Not because she liked him."

"Yea," Scott said. "What should we do next?"

"Rub it in their faces and tell them how much we 'love' each other," Rogue said. "They'll get really mad."

"Yea," Scott said.

"Are you alright?" Rogue asked. "You seem a little down."

"Yea, I'm alright I'm just tired," Scott lied.

"Ok," Rogue said. "It's time to go."

Jean and Remy were talking after school as well. They were in his car and were going to go to the brotherhood house.

"Remy, why did you kiss her?" Jean asked. "I mean everything is practically ruined."

"I'm sorry," Remy replied. "I can't help the way I feel. I've been in love with Rogue since the first time I saw her and now I can touch her and well I really wanted to kiss her."

"It's ok," Jean said. "Maybe we shouldn't go together."

"I still want to make them jealous," Remy answered. "It was a big slap in the face when I kissed Rogue and she acted like she didn't even like me."

"Yea," Jean said. "That has to suck."

"We're here," Remy said.

"Hey," Jean said. "I just thought of something. What if I stayed over night here."

Remy laughed. "That would really work," He said.

"How are we going to make that work without the Prof knowing but Scott and Rogue knowing?" Jean asked.

"I don't know," Remy said.
