Chapter 7
Pietro's back was about ready to break even though Kitty was the lightest thing he had ever carried. Suddenly he felt a light pressure on his shoulder and a quiet snoring nose erupted from on his back and he stole a glance behind him. Kitty was sleeping peacefully and Pietro couldn't help but smile. She looked so sweet. He tried to walk more smoothly so as not to wake sleeping beauty. But Lance suddenly stopped abruptly, causing a chain reaction. Pietro slammed into Freddy's back and Kitty suddenly awoke. Pietro cursed inwardly. Lance's gaze was glued to the sky where dangerous gray clouds rolled into the sky silently. Lance cursed under his breath.
"Well we better find shelter before the rain starts pouring," Lance said walking on. Kitty rubbed her eyes and yawned, which Pietro thought was incredibly cute.
"Do you need a rest Pietro? Like, from carrying me?" Kitty asked leaning forward to speak into his ear. Pietro shivered in pleasure as her lips brushed against his ear.
"No, it's ok. You're really light so I'm ok," he lied. His back was aching terribly and he thought he might collapse if they didn't find shelter soon. Lance stopped abruptly, once again causing a chain reaction. Pietro growled and Kitty began to giggle. He looked behind him and glared at her playfully.
"A cave, nice place to take shelter before it rains," Lance mumbled and headed into the cave. The others followed suite. Freddy lye down far in the back and fell asleep almost instantly. Todd sat in the corner hugging his knees tightly and rested his head in them, falling asleep as well. ~~They must all be tired, but not half as tired as I am~~ Pietro entered the cave and set Kitty down gently on the cave floor. Kitty smiled up at him.
"Thanks," she said, immediately pulling her knees up to her chin, just like Todd had done. Lance had left the shelter a while back to gather wood. Pietro absent mindedly sat beside Kitty and began rubbing his arms up and down in an attempt to keep himself warms. Kitty shivered involuntarily and Pietro looked at her.
"Cold?" he asked and without a reply whipped off his jacket and placed it gently around her shoulders. She smiled wider and thanked him quietly. Suddenly there was a loud clap of thunder and Kitty jumped, closing the distance between her and Pietro. Pietro tried to control the fierce blush that was slowly creeping up his neck. There was a soft patter of rain from outside and it grew increasingly louder by the second until it was pounding inside their ears. Pietro and Kitty suspected Storm of this but didn't say a word.
"I hope Lance is all right," Kitty said quietly, quickly glancing out the mouth of the cave. Pietro shuddered but remained silent. Suddenly Lance came bounding into the cave his jacket stuffed with wood. He was grinning widely. He unzipped his jacket letting the wood fall to the cave floor with a loud clatter. Freddy and Todd stirred a bit but never woke. He quickly put the wood in a small pile and rummaged through his backpack, and took out a box of matches.
"Hey!" Kitty cried, "That's against the rules y'know. They said only the things THEY provided were allowed." He smirked.
"Well do you want a fire or not?" he asked striking the match against t a rock, igniting it immediately and throwing it onto the fire which burst into warm flames. Kitty shut her mouth and reluctantly scooted closer to the fire and held out her hands to warm them up. Pietro sat at a distance from the open flames his arms folded across his chest and leaning against the wall. He was very sleepy and he didn't think he could keep his eyes open any longer. That is until he realized he would be leaving Lance alone. With Kitty. His eyes snapped open and he stood up and walked to the opposite side of the fire than Kitty, sitting down beside it. He noticed that Lance was closer to Kitty than he had been before. Pietro noticed that Lance was slowly creeping over to Kitty. By the uneasy look Kitty was giving Lance she was noticing it too. Lance casually draped an arm around Kitty's shoulder and she shrugged it off.
"C'mon Pretty Kitty," he grunted forcefully planting his arm around he shoulders once again. Kitty tried to pry him from her shoulders but he just wouldn't give in.
"Lay off," Pietro mumbled. Lance's head snapped up and he pulled her closer glaring fiercely at Pietro.
"Why don't you make me," he snarled ignoring the struggling Kitty. Pietro stood up, his eyes blazing with anger.
"I said LAY OFF, she's obviously not interested," he growled glaring back equally as fierce. Kitty had stopped struggling and was looking up at Pietro.
"How many chicks have you kept at when they said lay off, Maximoff?" he barked also getting to his feet, dragging Kitty with him. He said Pietro's last name as if it were an insult. Pietro took a step closer.
"None, actually. I know how to take a hint!" he said angrily. Lance took another step closer as well, so that the two were face to face.
"If I didn't know any better I'd say you LIKED Kitty," he growled. Kitty looked at Pietro urgently. Would he say no? Or would he hint at it? Or maybe he would even give a direct yes.
"And what if I do?!" he asked a dangerous edge in his voice. Lance's eyes widened momentarily but were once again set in a dangerous glare after a moments time. Before Kitty realized it the arm around her had disappeared and Lance's fist was flying at Pietro's face. But of course Pietro was too fast and ducked, missing the punch by inches. He swung immediately and punched Lance in the stomach. Hard. Lance doubled over and looked up at Pietro, his brown eyes gleaming dangerously.
"You're lucky you got that stupid power of yours," he grumbled before staggering off into the back of the cave with Freddy. Kitty looked up at Pietro her eyes glistening with tears.
"Why-why did you do that?" she stuttered a small tear slipping out of her eye and running down her cheek, falling silently form her chin.
"I-I don't know," Pietro muttered averting his gaze to the cave floor, "I just have to go." Pietro slowly stumbled out of the cave. He was about five minutes into the forest when he felt a small delicate hand on his shoulder. He turned around to face Kitty. A sweet smile was playing on her perfect pink lips. He smiled back at her weakly. He had after all hit his best friend over her.
"Pietro, I-" she whispered but was soon cut of by a light pressure over her mouth. She knew what it was but refused to believe it until he released her from her blissful state. His eyes were filled with a certain emotion she could not quite put her finger on but it looked very cute on him.
"Thank you," she said quietly, not wanting to break the atmosphere, "For sticking up for me like that." She kissed him quickly once again and then left him standing in the moonlight.

Kurt rushed up to Scott his eyes urgent and worried.
"Scott! Scott, Keety is missing!" he shouted. Scott stopped unexpectedly everyone bumping into one another.
"What!?" Scott gasped. He quickly scanned the group for a bobbing ponytail but there was not a sign of the perky brunette. He was quickly filled with panic. Where had they lost her? What had happened? Was she injured? Scott shook his head and without a word ran in the other direction, prepared to retrace every step they had taken. After all, he was responsible for everyone. Including Kitty.
