Hi! It'd the 5th chap. and the longest one yet! I'm so happy I got his done! Once again, I love reviews more then anything, so *please*! ****************************************************************************
"For the last time- NO!"
"But Wanda-"
"NO! Now get out!"
"But-" Todd's argument was cut short when Wanda picked him up using her powers and flung him out of the room, slamming the door in the process. He landed on his back right in front of Lance, who had been heading upstairs.
"What'd you do?" Lance asked.
"I just asked her out, yo! I'm tellin' ya, that girl's wacky!" Todd said, picking himself up.
"No duh" Lance said irritably
"Yo, why are you so grouchy?"
"Guess"
"Kitty?" Lance nodded and started to leave.
"You should ask her to the dance, yo! *She's* not gonna fling ya down a flight of stairs!" Todd called.
"What makes you so sure?" Lance said, and then walked away.

Trent wasn't particularly happy about his date, but he'd rather take Kitty than no one. He hoped that she was better than he remembered; Jean
had said she was, but somehow he didn't believe her.
"Hi" Trent turned around to see Kurt Wagner, one of Kitty's friends if he remembered correctly.
"It's Trent, right?" Kurt asked.
"Yeah" Trent said.
"I heard you taking Keety to ze dance" he said.
"Yeah, why?"
"Nozing really, I vas just vondering. See, I thought zat Keety already had a date." Kurt replied, hoping this idea would work.
"Jean said she was looking for someone" Trent said.
"Ja, vell, Jean doesn't alvays have her facts right"
"So, you're saying that Kitty's already going with someone?"
"Um, ja, I'm pretty sure."
"Well tell her if she doesn't call I'm gonna find someone. She got my number?"
"Ja" Kurt lied and walked away.

Jean looked at the answering machine. She hit play and a mechanical voice said 'one new message'. There was a beep and a voice came on.
"Um, hi. It's Pietro. Um, Wanda's not going and Todd's dateless, so I don't know what he's doing. And, I kinda got turned down by every girl I could think of, so I was wondering if any of you X-Girls were available. Not to really go out! Just for the plan! Okay- bye"
*What the hell?* Jean thought and just to make sure she wasn't hallucinating, she played the message again. Now sure that what she heard was real, she ran out of the room to find Scott and the professor.
Rogue stepped outside of her bedroom and started walking down the hall when...
"Jean! What the-?!"
"Sorry Rogue, I wasn't watching" the red head apologized.
"Why are you in such a rush?" Rogue asked.
"You'll never believe the message on the phone!" Jean exclaimed. She pulled Rogue into a nearby closet and told her about the message.
"Oh!" Rogue said pretending to be surprised "that's really weird"
"Yeah" Jean agreed "I need to go talk to the Professor about it"
"No!" Rogue said impulsively "ya can't tell the Professor!"
"Why not?"
"Um..."
In short, Jean didn't like Kurt's idea. But Rogue didn't get the short, she got the long, as in the very long list of reasons why it was a bad idea.
"And Scott won't like it..." Jean said.
"O' course he won't, he hates Alvers' guts! But who cares about him? Besides, no one's obliged t' tell him." Rogue interrupted.
"And it's never good to meddle with people's love lives, you should let them try to do this on they're own"
"They're not gonna get anythin' done by themselves"
"They might"
"Your bein' unrealistically optimistic" Rogue retorted.
"And there's another problem" Jean said.
"What?"
"Um, I kinda promised Kitty that-"
"You would find a date for her? Yeah I know, Kurt's taking care o' that." Jean shook her head.
"Rouge thinks about it: Kitty Pryde, Lance Alvers; Shadowcat, Avalanche; X-Men, Brotherhood- they're total opposites!"
"So?"
Jean sighed. She would never understand Rogue, even if she was a telepath. ****************************************************************************
?_?- Rest assured, I shall fix it. Not quite yet, but eventually.
Rebecca- Happy B-day! And keep checking for updates.
