~Chapter 5~

-At the Institute-

Kitty was in her room,staring into her closet with a blank expression. She started to mumble to herself. Rogue sat on her bed,looking at Kitty strangely.

"Um..Kitty?"Rogue asked."What are ya doin'?" Kitty blinked,then turned around.

"Huh? Oh,I was like trying to figure out what to wear,"she replied.

"Well can ya stop? It's startin' ta scare me."

"Oh,alright. But I need you to,like,help me pick out an outfit,"Kitty said. Rogue rolled her eyes and got up off her bed.

"Fahn,"she said,walking over to the closet. She looked for a second,then pulled out some clothes. She spread them out on Kitty's bed. There was a crimson red tank top,a black sweater,and dark blue capris. Rogue then went back over to the closet and pulled out a pair of white sneakers. Then she dug through Kitty's dresser drawers and found a silver necklace with a heart on it.

"There. Ah'm done,"Rogue said.

"Oh my god! Thank you!"Kitty squealed. "It's perfect!"

'Wah is it always so hard for her ta pick out an outfit?'Rogue wondered. Then another thought struck her.

"Kitty,wah are you fussing so much about what ya are gonna wear,ya're only goin ta help Lance with his homework,"Rogue said. Kitty blushed.



"I'm like not really sure..."

"Don't be wastin' your tahme(time) on Avalanche,sugah."Rogue warned. "Ah don't think he's worth it."

Kitty was now really embarassed,and began to think. 'Why did I blush? I don't like Lance,right? I think I like Kurt,but I'm not sure......I'm so totally confused..'she thought.

Then Rogue glanced at the alarm clock on Kitty's dresser. It said 5:53pm.

"Kitty,don't ya have ta go ta Lance's house at six?"Rogue asked. Kitty quickly looked at the clock and screeched.

"AHH! I'm like gonna be sooo late!"she yelled,grabbing her clothes. She phased through the door and ran down the hall to the bathroom. Kitty phased through the bathroom door and was suddenly face to face with Kurt. His hair and fur were dripping,he had obviously just come out of the shower. Kitty then looked down and....he wasn't wearing a towel.

"AHH!"She yelled for the second time. She quickly turned around,a bright red color seeping into her cheeks. 'Whoa'was the only thing she could think. She shook herself, trying to get the image out of her head.

"S....Sorry about that Kurt..."she stuttered."I'm...I was..er...in a hurry,and I forgot to knock."Kurt grabbed a a towel and wrapped it around himself.

"Ah....that's alright Keety.."Kurt said,flushing a deep red,which showed up surprisingly well under his blue fur. "I'm..ah...decent now." Kitty truned around again, relief on her face.

"Besides,"Kurt said teasingly."I know you vant me Keety!"

"KURT!!!"she shrieked,about to slap him. But then BAMF! He 'ported away. Kitty rolled her eyes and began to change.'Ugh....boys...'she thought. She finished dressing and fixed her hair. Then she realized how late she probably was,phased through the floor,and ran out the front door. Scott was waiting in his car. Kitty hopped in,and they drove towards the Brotherhood's house. Scott soon began to complain.

"Why are you going to Lance's house?"he whined. He hated Lance. "This better only be about homework,or I'll blast him up his a-"

"SCOTT!"Kitty yelled. "Shut UP! There is nothing going on between..." Just then they pulled up at the house. Kitty jumped out,happy that she wouldn't have to listen to Scott's whining for a while. Scott pulled away from the curb,still muttering things. Kitty rang the doorbell,then remembered that it didn't work and phased through the door.

Wanda was sitting on the couch,watching tv.



"Hi Wanda,do you know where Lance is?"Kitty asked. Just then she heard a familiar voice...



"Oh snookums!"..and Toad came hopping down the stairs. He was almost at the bottom when he tripped and fell in a heap on the floor. He got up quickly. Wanda growled and hexed a chair,making it chase Toad around the room. Toad jumped up on a wall and the chair smashed into it.

"That was really close yo,"Toad said. Then he saw Kitty. "Oh hey,Lance is upstairs in his room."

"Thanks Todd,"said Kitty. She walked up the stairs and down the hall,wondering which room was Lance's. Just then one of the doors opened at the end of the hall. Lance came out.

"Hey Kitty,"he said. "Come on in."

"I'm like, really sorry I'm late,"Kitty apologized.

"It's alright." He looked at her. "You look nice,"Lance said. Then he stepped aside to let Kitty in. Kitty sat down on his bed.

"Thanks,Lance. So,like where's that homework you needed help with?"she asked. She didn't seem to notice the mess,either that or she didn't mind it. Then Lance realized what she had asked and began to get a little red.

"Umm....I...uh...didn't actually have any homework...."Lance said. "I wanted you to come here so I could ask you something."

"Well,like what is it?"Kitty asked. Lance mumbled something.

"Say it louder,I totally can't hear you."Kitty said.

"Willyougotothepoolpartywithme?"Lance said quickly.

"I'm....um..not sure."Kitty said,thinking.'He is hot......but I was kinda hoping that Kurt would ask me. Oh well,why would he anyway? He probably just thinks of me as his friend. That time when Logan caught us in the bathroom was like totally just an accident, right? But maybe not...I'm so confused.'

"I'll like,give you my answer tomorrow,ok?"Kitty said. She got up off his bed and started to walk out of the room. Lance grabbed her arm.

"Pleeease Kitty,"he begged. Kitty thought again. 'Well,Kurt probably won't ask me anyway.....'

"Alright,"she said. Lance got this dreamy look on his face. He leaned in close to Kitty and gave her a kiss. Kitty jerked away.

"I...um...have to go now. See you at the party,Lance,"she said,running out of the room. Lance just stood there with a confused expression on his face. Scott was waiting when Kitty came out of the Brotherhood's house. Kitty got in and slammed the door shut. On the way home,she thought about what had happened. 'Eww...he had like,such bad breath.....' Kitty shuddered. 'Oh well,at least the party will be a total blast. I can't wait.'

AN: Now you must review!! Or I'll get you with my hair spray!! -tries to look serious but fails entirely- Oh well...... And no,Kitty doesn't like Lance. At all. It's just part of my eevil master plan(muahaha)for the next chapter. Bye! -gives everyone cookies-
