NOTE: Thanks for the reviews and keep on reviewin. My mind was going crazy about whether to add Remy or not so I thought and thought and thought and I added him, happy now?
"Hey! Wait!" Jean called out to Rogue and Kitty who were running in front of her. ~Why is Rogue wearing a cheerleader's uniform?~ she thought in surprise. ~Whatever just happened, I just know these two were responsible~ she thought stopping when they phased out through the wall. ~Where are they going?~ she asked herself when she came out and followed them to the parking lot.
"What in the—" Jean's eyes almost popped out when she saw Logan kiss Rogue.
"Rogue! I love you!" Jean heard someone scream behind her followed by a noise similar to a stampede.
"O My God!" she screeched quickly floating up to avoid being trampled by a stampede of boys.
"Rogue! I can't live without you!"
"Rogue! Come back!"
"What the hell is going on?!" Jean shouted, looking down at the boys as they passed by. In the crowd she spotted Duncan, Ray, Roberto, Sam and almost every other male she knew. At a distance, she got a brief glance of Rogue and Kitty drive away in a car with the mob following them. Some of the boys went into their cars to keep up with them while others just chased them on foot. "Hey! Duncan!" she shouted after landing on the ground. "Wait!" she cried when she saw him get into his car. "Wait!" she screamed. But he just sped away. Jean quickly flew up and landed herself in the backseat of his car, unnoticed.
"Duncan what is going on?!" she asked coming to the front seat.
"Huh? Hey! Get out!" Duncan shouted when he noticed Jean sitting next to him. "This place is reserved for Rogue!"
"What? Why are you going after—Ahhhhh!" she screamed when he pushed her out of the car.
"Those two have got a lot of explaining to do!" she groaned, rubbing her butt.
"T-T-This is horrible!" Rogue cried, touching her face as she gazed at her reflection. "I-I'm K-Kitty!"
"Help!!!" Rogue turned around and saw herself running with a whole crowd of boys after her. "Like somebody help me!"
"And she's in my body! She messed up the spell!"
"Rogue we were meant to be!"
"I was born for you!"
"Like Ah'm not Rogue! Ah'm Kitty! Leave me alone!" she screamed running towards a wall.
"What is she doing? Doesn't she know that she couldn't— " Rogue stopped when Kitty bump hard into the wall and fell back. "Phase."
"Kitty?" a voice asked her. "Is that you?"
Rogue slowly turned around to face a middle-aged woman. "Kitty dear what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at school?"
"I-uh…" Rogue trailed off recognizing the woman, Kitty's aunt.
"I hope you're not bunking classes," she said folding her arms and giving her a stern look. "You know we can't stand losers in the family."
"N-No we umm…" she trailed off when she turned around to see Todd leap on Kitty. ~Uh-oh!~
"Yes?" her voice snapped Rogue out of her thoughts.
"Our school has closed down for repairs," Rogue just blurted out. ~Great! What a perfect excuse!~
.
"Well… since you're here, we can both go to the beauty parlour."
~Glad that wasn't me~ Rogue thought when Todd was kissing Kitty.
"Kitty?"
"Huh? N-No I can't, some thing important—"
"Kitty, there's nothing more important than family and right now you're coming with me!"
"But my friend—" she protested turning around to see no sign of Kitty.
"Not another word from you young lady!"
Rogue sighed. "Ok," she muttered and followed her. ~Can't argue with our elders~
"No! Stay away!" Kitty screamed trapped between a wall and the crowd of boys.
"Rogue I lo—" the boy was cut short when suddenly someone jumped in front of him.
"You should listen to de lady," the figure said as he backed away then threw a glowing card which landed near their feet and exploded making them stagger back. "C'mon!" he said quickly grabbing her hand and led her inside a store room before the smoke from the explosion cleared off.
"You have a habit of gettin into trouble, don't you chere?" he said as he closed the door.
"Stay away!" she screamed delivering a round house kick.
"Whoa! Take it easy chere! I'm not gonna hurt you!" he said putting up his hands and backing away.
"Hurt? Who said anything about hurtin? Ah meant ya takin me ta some cheap hotel room and seducin me!"
"Chere, I would never do dat! Without your permission dat is!"
"Like who are ya?"
"You forgot Remy already?"
"Ah have like never seen ya in mah life!"
"You break Remy's heart chere," he said making a sad facing. "Remy was de one who saved you twice, remember?"
"Ya mean once! Now leave me alone!"
"If it's bout dese powers…" he said holding up a card which started glowing. "Then Remy understands."
"Powers? No, No! It's about ya goin crazy over me!"
"Chere, you need some help, you talkin funny!"
"Funny? Ah—Ah…" Kitty fell down on her knees and started sobbing.
"O chere, don't cry!" he said kneeling down beside her. "I didn't mean to—"
"Ah messed up everythin! Everyone is after me! Ah've been kissed by the most disgusting mutant in the world! And Ah don't even belong in this body!!" she wailed.
"Aww chere! Dat's not true!"
"How do ya know?! All ya're thinkin of now is how ta get me ta bed!" Kitty said between sobs.
"Nooo! Chere! Stop cryin and listen!" Remy said. "You can't judge a book by its cover, then how can you say dis about Remy?"
"Well…." she sniffed and wiped her tears. "Ah kind of tore the pages of all the books! And now—now…" Kitty covered her face and again started crying.
"Not again! Chere for de last time, I won't hurt you in any sense alright? So stop cryin!"
Kitty finally stopped and started wiping her tears. "Scary eyes you got there," she said after getting a good look at his face. "Ya're a mutant right?"
"Yeah."
"Me too," she said, slowly getting up.
"Remy can guess what your power is."
"Really? What?"
"Attractin people."
"Ok, this is really weird, ya aren't insanely in love with me?" Kitty asked when he wasn't making any attempts to kiss her or commit any kind of sexual activity.
"Chere! If you feel dat way bout Remy—"
"Just tell me dammit!"
"Maybe a lil attraction, but not what you would call 'insane'."
"Alright, that's good! One out of all the males in the world is not after me." Kitty said grabbing his arm and dragging him outside. "Plus your powers could come in handy right now," she stopped and looked sideways to see if the coast was clear. "Whatever they are! What are they?"
"We charge de card," he said as he took out a card from one of his pocket of his trench coat then threw it in a corner. "And it explodes!" he said when it exploded.
"Explodes! Great ya can kill anyone who comes in mah way! So let's make a deal here. Ya help me find mah friend and a lady so that Ah could like, remove this stupid love spell so that Ah could get mah body back and Ah'll let ya join the X-men so that everyone will be proud of me so that Ah won't get grounded like, forever, ok?"
"Chere, you definitely need professional help," Remy said, shaking his head.
"Listen uh…Aunty..~Whatever your name is~…I don't wax, I shave, easier and painless." Rogue said casting a nervous glance at the woman who was applying wax on her arm then slapped a piece of cloth and started rubbing it.
"Since when? You've always preferred waxing," Aunt Molly said who was getting her hair trimmed.
"Uh…as long as I can remember. Listen, I gotta find my friend, it's an emergen—Ahhh! God that hurts!" Rogue shrieked when the woman pulled back the cloth.
"Hurts? I thought by now you've gotten used to the pain."
"I'm just not feeling myself toda—Aowouch! Please! I really have to go now! My friend—"
"What is your rush? It's not like your friend is going to commit suicide or something."
"Stay back or Ah'll jump!" Kitty screamed as she tried to balance herself on the railing.
"Rogue don't!" a boy screamed.
"Nooo!" Fred screamed.
"Don't do it yo!" Todd screamed. "I'll do anything you say—take a bath everyday, any—"
"Unless ya want to see me alive, ya all better stay back!" she again screamed. "It's a long fall! Ah'm not sure if that fountain has enough water ta save me!"
"Ok Rogue, I'm going back see…now please get down from there," Duncan said as he backed away.
"No! Ya'll like, get out of the mall first!" she screamed.
All the boys looked at each other then at her then slowly started moving towards her.
"Ah'm jumpin!" Kitty said as she removed one foot from the railing "Now!"
"Alright!" a boy said. "I'm going!"
"So am I," another boy said and with that the whole crowd soon dispersed.
"Phew!" Kitty sighed climbing down.
"Looks like your idea worked chere," Remy said coming out from behind a pillar. "Now dat everyone's gone, how bout we get to know each other betta? How about on a cup of—"
"Hey! Ya like, said ya weren't in love with me!"
"I didn't mean hundred percent," Remy replied grinning.
"Reality check! This is not mah body!"
"I'm sure your friend won't mind ch—"
"No!" ~Ugh! Great! He has a crush on me or Rogue or whatever!~ she thought shaking her head. "C'mon!"
"Alright! Finally!" Jean said stopping in front of the mall to catch her breath after a long chasing of boys to the mall. ~What is going on in their heads? Bunking school to go shopping?~ She was about to go in when she caught sight of a crowd of boys heading towards her. "Not again!" she groaned and floated up. When she turned her head, she got a glimpse of Rogue running inside in one of the windows.
"Oh, no you don't!" Jean said stopping her in her tracks.
"Hey!" Kitty screeched when she couldn't move her legs.
"What's wrong chere?" Gambit asked when she suddenly stopped.
"Jean!" she exclaimed when she saw her float in and head towards her.
"Friend of yours?" Remy asked.
"Not right now!"
"Ok Rogue, now what is going on? And where is Kitty?" Jean asked
"Kitty? Ah don't know probably at school," Kitty lied. ~Please don't read mah mind please don't ..~ Kitty started praying.
"Tell me the truth Rogue!"
"Ah like, don't know alright!"
"Mon ami, she's havin a rough day, you—" Remy was saying to Jean when she interrupted.
"Who are you?!" Jean asked after for the first time noticing that he was there.
"De name's Remy," Remy answered bowing. "Remy LeBeau."
"Oh, so now you're making new friends and bunking school!" Jean said to Kitty.
"What friend? He's just some guy!"
"Whatever! Why did you two come here anyway?"
"Uh ..just some important stuff we have ta take care of…" Kitty answered.
"Aha! So she is here!"
"Umm—Why are ya here? Shouldan't ya be at school or maybe ya're bunk—"
"Well, if I wasn't busy saving the cheerleaders from whatever you two did, I wouldn't be here!"
"We didn't do anythin!"
"Ok then, why did all the boys went ballistic and attacked them screaming your name?"
"Whoa chere! You do have a habit of creatin trouble!"
"Cause the cheerleaders attacked us," Kitty said.
"And why did they attack? Its not something to do with the cheerleader's uniform you were wearing, does it?"
"Umm… yeah…sort of....listen, Ah really need ta be somewhere else right now, so please unfreeze me!"
"Sorry, but you're not going anywhere until you tel— " Jean's voice got caught in her throat when her eyes fell on the diamond ring on her finger.
Kitty noticing her strange behaviour, looked down at her hand then was struck with a perfect idea. "Ok, now ya like know why Ah'm here. Ah was hopin ta break the news ta everyone later, after Scott had made all the arrangements."
"Scott? Arrangements?" Jean still staring at the ring, choked out.
"Yeah, isn't he a cutie?" Kitty said giggling. "Ah like, couldn't believe he wants us ta get married so soon. But what can Ah do? He loves me soooo much that Ah just couldn't break his heart. Well, now ya know and since ya're here maybe ya could help me select a wedding dress."
"Chere, you never tell me you were gettin ma—" Kitty elbowed Remy in the ribs before he could finish his sentence.
"And this is the…" she said grabbing his arm. "Weddin planner."
"No, you must have mista—" Remy was saying when Kitty again elbowed him. "Whatever you say," he muttered, shrugging.
"Rogue! You-Y-You, Y-You can't marry Scott!" Jean grabbing her by the shoulders, blurted out.
~This is goin ta be fun~ Kitty thought smiling to herself. "Why not?"
"You can kill him and you're only fifteen!"
"Sixteen," Kitty corrected. "Ah can't let mah powers bother me in matters of love."
"That still doesn't mean you can marry him!"
"Why? Is there some other reason? Ya should speak now or forever withhold your—Holy O Mah Gawd!!!" Kitty screamed at something behind Jean.
"What the—Kitty?!" Jean exclaimed turning around to face Rogue, in Kitty's body whose hair was now short hardly reaching her shoulders and had white streaks.
"Wh-What did ya do ta mah hair?!" Kitty screamed at Rogue.
"She resembles you chere, she your sister?" Remy asked Kitty.
"You!" Rogue exclaimed on seeing Remy.
"Pardon?"
"At the jewelry store, it was you wasn't it? Who are you?"
"Remy, and you are?"
"Rog—" she was about to say when Kitty again screamed.
"Hey! Why and what did ya do ta mah hair!?"
"Since I'm going to be stuck here for—I don't know—forever, so might as well change the style," she answered, stroking her hair.
"Do ya have any idea how long it takes ta grow hair that long?!"
"Well, I wouldn't have had it cut if your 'Aunty' hadn't come out of nowhere and dragged me to the beauty saloon!"
"Aunty? Which Aunty?!" Kitty asked, then slapped her forehead. "Oh! Aunt Molly! Ah totally forgot she was comin!"
"What are you two talking about?" Jean asked totally confused.
"Dat's what I was thinkin," Remy said.
"What are we talking about? Why don't 'you', tell her what we're talking about, 'Kitty'," Rogue said, making Jean extremely confused.
"Kitty?" Jean said, looking at Kitty then at Rogue. "What do you mean?"
"Or better yet, why don't you read our minds?" Rogue suggested and Kitty gave her a I'm-going-to-kill-you-for-this look.
Jean shrugged and put her hands on her temples. She gasped in shock after reading their minds then looked at Kitty then at Rogue. "What the—?" she again tried and got the same reading. "You're Kitty?!" she asked in bewilderment looking at Kitty in the body of Rogue. She then turned around to face Rogue. "And you're—Wait a second!" she turned around to face Kitty again "You're Kitty?!" she asked again, this time angry as ever.
Kitty gulped. "Umm…yeah… Hi Jean—Um... ya know Ah was kiddin before—Uh… Jean, ya're turnin red."
"Ahhhhh!" she screamed and delivered a punch at her.
"Whoa!" Kitty exclaimed, ducking in time.
"Ladies ladies!" Remy said coming in between them. "Dere's no need for fig—" he was unable to complete his sentence when Jean pushed him aside with her TK.
"Can't let my powers get in matters of love huh?! I'll show you love!" she screamed lunging for her.
"Hey! Stop it!" Rogue screamed coming in between them but was unluckily hit in the face by Jean's TK punch.
Remy caught her in time before she hit the floor. "You ok?"
"Yeah…thanks," she said as he helped her back on her feet. "Your eyes..." she trailed of staring into his red and black eyes.
"Hey! How dare ya hit mah face!" Kitty screamed and leapt on Jean.
"We betta stop your friends from killin each other," Remy said snapping her out of her trance.
"Huh? Oh right!" she said shaking her head. ~ What's the matter with me?~
"No! Wait!!" Jean screamed when Kitty was about to punch her. "You'll absorb my—" Kitty punches her on the face. "Oww! What the—?" she exclaimed, when she didn't get her powers drained. "Wh—Hey wai—" Kitty punches her again. "Oww! Would you stop that!" she screamed and hurled Kitty off her with her TK.
"What's the matter?" Kitty asked, getting up. "Give up?"
"Ok that's enough Kitty!" Rogue said grabbing her. "Instead of fighting maybe we should go and find the lady or do you prefer being stuck like this forever?"
"You should listen to your friend," Remy told Jean after helping her on her feet.
"R-Right…Ok,ok.. now," Jean said rubbing her face and straightening her hair. "How did this happen?"
"Kitty-Kat here decided to give me an extraordinary gift which didn't have any instructions on what to do if something went horribly wrong!" Rogue answered glaring at Kitty.
Jean shook her head, still not understanding. "Listen, we should just go to the Professor he can—" Jean was saying when Kitty interrupted.
"Well, Miss-Ah-know it all! We can't! Cause one look at me would cause him ta fall insanely in love with me!" Kitty said. "And that would be so icksome!"
"What?!"
"Wait a minute!" Rogue clicked. "If that spell is still there then why isn't he in…."
"Insanely in love with her? Dat puzzles Remy too," he said, grinning at Kitty. "But I could be wrong…"
"Could ya guys excuse us for a minute?" Kitty said between gritted teeth then started dragging Remy away.
"Second!" Rogue shouted as she watched Kitty and Remy stop outside a hardware store. ~Hmmm…He looks so—No! No! What am I thinking?~ she thought her cheeks growing hot. ~He's just an ordinary guy nothing else, he—~ Rogue stopped and looked at Jean who was looking at her with a curious expression. "What?"
"Oh nothing!" Jean answered turning away and Rogue could have sworn she was grinning.
~Ugh! Damn telepathy!~
"Listen Pepe Lepeu!" Kitty snapped.
"Remy LeBeau, chere," Remy corrected, grinning at her.
"Whatever! Let me make it clear ta ya! Ah'm her and she's me!" Kitty said pointing at Rogue. "Meanin, Ah like, don't belong in 'this' body and she doesn't belong in 'that' body. So either ya like, go flirt with her or wait till we're back in our own bodies or don't do anythin at all! Meanin ya have no right, whatsoever ta try ta kiss me right now!" Kitty shouted when Remy's face was getting way to close to hers.
"Oops! Sorry chere," he apologized, backing away. "I'll try ta remember that."
"And another thing! Stop callin me chere!" Kitty shouted.
"Ok che—Ok!" he said.
"Good! Now let's go!" Kitty said as she walked towards the others.
"You know, I'm gonna miss havin ta call you chere, mon ami."
"Whatever!" she said rolling her eyes.
"Hey! Wait!" Jean called out to Rogue and Kitty who were running in front of her. ~Why is Rogue wearing a cheerleader's uniform?~ she thought in surprise. ~Whatever just happened, I just know these two were responsible~ she thought stopping when they phased out through the wall. ~Where are they going?~ she asked herself when she came out and followed them to the parking lot.
"What in the—" Jean's eyes almost popped out when she saw Logan kiss Rogue.
"Rogue! I love you!" Jean heard someone scream behind her followed by a noise similar to a stampede.
"O My God!" she screeched quickly floating up to avoid being trampled by a stampede of boys.
"Rogue! I can't live without you!"
"Rogue! Come back!"
"What the hell is going on?!" Jean shouted, looking down at the boys as they passed by. In the crowd she spotted Duncan, Ray, Roberto, Sam and almost every other male she knew. At a distance, she got a brief glance of Rogue and Kitty drive away in a car with the mob following them. Some of the boys went into their cars to keep up with them while others just chased them on foot. "Hey! Duncan!" she shouted after landing on the ground. "Wait!" she cried when she saw him get into his car. "Wait!" she screamed. But he just sped away. Jean quickly flew up and landed herself in the backseat of his car, unnoticed.

"What? Why are you going after—Ahhhhh!" she screamed when he pushed her out of the car.
"Those two have got a lot of explaining to do!" she groaned, rubbing her butt.
"T-T-This is horrible!" Rogue cried, touching her face as she gazed at her reflection. "I-I'm K-Kitty!"
"Help!!!" Rogue turned around and saw herself running with a whole crowd of boys after her. "Like somebody help me!"
"And she's in my body! She messed up the spell!"
"Rogue we were meant to be!"
"I was born for you!"
"Like Ah'm not Rogue! Ah'm Kitty! Leave me alone!" she screamed running towards a wall.

"N-No we umm…" she trailed off when she turned around to see Todd leap on Kitty. ~Uh-oh!~
"Yes?" her voice snapped Rogue out of her thoughts.
"Our school has closed down for repairs," Rogue just blurted out. ~Great! What a perfect excuse!~
.
"Well… since you're here, we can both go to the beauty parlour."
~Glad that wasn't me~ Rogue thought when Todd was kissing Kitty.

"Funny? Ah—Ah…" Kitty fell down on her knees and started sobbing.
"O chere, don't cry!" he said kneeling down beside her. "I didn't mean to—"
"Ah messed up everythin! Everyone is after me! Ah've been kissed by the most disgusting mutant in the world! And Ah don't even belong in this body!!" she wailed.
"Aww chere! Dat's not true!"
"How do ya know?! All ya're thinkin of now is how ta get me ta bed!" Kitty said between sobs.
"Nooo! Chere! Stop cryin and listen!" Remy said. "You can't judge a book by its cover, then how can you say dis about Remy?"

"Chere, you definitely need professional help," Remy said, shaking his head.
"Listen uh…Aunty..~Whatever your name is~…I don't wax, I shave, easier and painless." Rogue said casting a nervous glance at the woman who was applying wax on her arm then slapped a piece of cloth and started rubbing it.

All the boys looked at each other then at her then slowly started moving towards her.

"De name's Remy," Remy answered bowing. "Remy LeBeau."
"Oh, so now you're making new friends and bunking school!" Jean said to Kitty.
"What friend? He's just some guy!"
"Whatever! Why did you two come here anyway?"
"Uh ..just some important stuff we have ta take care of…" Kitty answered.
"Aha! So she is here!"
"Umm—Why are ya here? Shouldan't ya be at school or maybe ya're bunk—"

"Chere, you never tell me you were gettin ma—" Kitty elbowed Remy in the ribs before he could finish his sentence.
"And this is the…" she said grabbing his arm. "Weddin planner."
"No, you must have mista—" Remy was saying when Kitty again elbowed him. "Whatever you say," he muttered, shrugging.
"Rogue! You-Y-You, Y-You can't marry Scott!" Jean grabbing her by the shoulders, blurted out.
~This is goin ta be fun~ Kitty thought smiling to herself. "Why not?"
"You can kill him and you're only fifteen!"
"Sixteen," Kitty corrected. "Ah can't let mah powers bother me in matters of love."
"That still doesn't mean you can marry him!"
"Why? Is there some other reason? Ya should speak now or forever withhold your—Holy O Mah Gawd!!!" Kitty screamed at something behind Jean.
"What the—Kitty?!" Jean exclaimed turning around to face Rogue, in Kitty's body whose hair was now short hardly reaching her shoulders and had white streaks.
"Wh-What did ya do ta mah hair?!" Kitty screamed at Rogue.
"She resembles you chere, she your sister?" Remy asked Kitty.
"You!" Rogue exclaimed on seeing Remy.
"Pardon?"
"At the jewelry store, it was you wasn't it? Who are you?"
"Remy, and you are?"
"Rog—" she was about to say when Kitty again screamed.
"Hey! Why and what did ya do ta mah hair!?"
"Since I'm going to be stuck here for—I don't know—forever, so might as well change the style," she answered, stroking her hair.
"Do ya have any idea how long it takes ta grow hair that long?!"
"Well, I wouldn't have had it cut if your 'Aunty' hadn't come out of nowhere and dragged me to the beauty saloon!"
"Aunty? Which Aunty?!" Kitty asked, then slapped her forehead. "Oh! Aunt Molly! Ah totally forgot she was comin!"
"What are you two talking about?" Jean asked totally confused.
"Dat's what I was thinkin," Remy said.
"What are we talking about? Why don't 'you', tell her what we're talking about, 'Kitty'," Rogue said, making Jean extremely confused.
"Kitty?" Jean said, looking at Kitty then at Rogue. "What do you mean?"
"Or better yet, why don't you read our minds?" Rogue suggested and Kitty gave her a I'm-going-to-kill-you-for-this look.
Jean shrugged and put her hands on her temples. She gasped in shock after reading their minds then looked at Kitty then at Rogue. "What the—?" she again tried and got the same reading. "You're Kitty?!" she asked in bewilderment looking at Kitty in the body of Rogue. She then turned around to face Rogue. "And you're—Wait a second!" she turned around to face Kitty again "You're Kitty?!" she asked again, this time angry as ever.
Kitty gulped. "Umm…yeah… Hi Jean—Um... ya know Ah was kiddin before—Uh… Jean, ya're turnin red."
"Ahhhhh!" she screamed and delivered a punch at her.
"Whoa!" Kitty exclaimed, ducking in time.
"Ladies ladies!" Remy said coming in between them. "Dere's no need for fig—" he was unable to complete his sentence when Jean pushed him aside with her TK.
"Can't let my powers get in matters of love huh?! I'll show you love!" she screamed lunging for her.
"Hey! Stop it!" Rogue screamed coming in between them but was unluckily hit in the face by Jean's TK punch.
Remy caught her in time before she hit the floor. "You ok?"
"Yeah…thanks," she said as he helped her back on her feet. "Your eyes..." she trailed of staring into his red and black eyes.
"Hey! How dare ya hit mah face!" Kitty screamed and leapt on Jean.
"We betta stop your friends from killin each other," Remy said snapping her out of her trance.
"Huh? Oh right!" she said shaking her head. ~ What's the matter with me?~
"No! Wait!!" Jean screamed when Kitty was about to punch her. "You'll absorb my—" Kitty punches her on the face. "Oww! What the—?" she exclaimed, when she didn't get her powers drained. "Wh—Hey wai—" Kitty punches her again. "Oww! Would you stop that!" she screamed and hurled Kitty off her with her TK.
"What's the matter?" Kitty asked, getting up. "Give up?"
"Ok that's enough Kitty!" Rogue said grabbing her. "Instead of fighting maybe we should go and find the lady or do you prefer being stuck like this forever?"
"You should listen to your friend," Remy told Jean after helping her on her feet.
"R-Right…Ok,ok.. now," Jean said rubbing her face and straightening her hair. "How did this happen?"
"Kitty-Kat here decided to give me an extraordinary gift which didn't have any instructions on what to do if something went horribly wrong!" Rogue answered glaring at Kitty.
Jean shook her head, still not understanding. "Listen, we should just go to the Professor he can—" Jean was saying when Kitty interrupted.
"Well, Miss-Ah-know it all! We can't! Cause one look at me would cause him ta fall insanely in love with me!" Kitty said. "And that would be so icksome!"
"What?!"
"Wait a minute!" Rogue clicked. "If that spell is still there then why isn't he in…."
"Insanely in love with her? Dat puzzles Remy too," he said, grinning at Kitty. "But I could be wrong…"
"Could ya guys excuse us for a minute?" Kitty said between gritted teeth then started dragging Remy away.
"Second!" Rogue shouted as she watched Kitty and Remy stop outside a hardware store. ~Hmmm…He looks so—No! No! What am I thinking?~ she thought her cheeks growing hot. ~He's just an ordinary guy nothing else, he—~ Rogue stopped and looked at Jean who was looking at her with a curious expression. "What?"
"Oh nothing!" Jean answered turning away and Rogue could have sworn she was grinning.
~Ugh! Damn telepathy!~
"Listen Pepe Lepeu!" Kitty snapped.
"Remy LeBeau, chere," Remy corrected, grinning at her.
"Whatever! Let me make it clear ta ya! Ah'm her and she's me!" Kitty said pointing at Rogue. "Meanin, Ah like, don't belong in 'this' body and she doesn't belong in 'that' body. So either ya like, go flirt with her or wait till we're back in our own bodies or don't do anythin at all! Meanin ya have no right, whatsoever ta try ta kiss me right now!" Kitty shouted when Remy's face was getting way to close to hers.
"Oops! Sorry chere," he apologized, backing away. "I'll try ta remember that."
"And another thing! Stop callin me chere!" Kitty shouted.
"Ok che—Ok!" he said.
"Good! Now let's go!" Kitty said as she walked towards the others.
"You know, I'm gonna miss havin ta call you chere, mon ami."
"Whatever!" she said rolling her eyes.
