Lance pulled into the parking lot in his old beat up jeep. He glanced back at Todd and Freddy,
"I wonder why Pietro left so early this morning?" he asked his fellow Brotherhood members - Todd desperately trying to keep his breakfast from flying out the window, while Freddie chomped away on a subway sandwich. Lance shook his head and rolled his eyes...
"I don't know why I even bother!"
While walking up to the school's entrance, Freddy's sub accidentally fell, making Todd slip and tumble forwards knocking Lance over as though he was an alley pin.
"Todd, what's the deal?" Lance looked up to were the young mutant was pointing and balled his hands into fists. He swallowed hard, clenched his jaw and yelled through gritted teeth - the ground rumbling violently,
"I'M GONNA KILL PIETRO!" He grabbed Todd by the collar and shook him aggressively.
Todd's eyes rattled inside his head, and he winced under Lance's inflamed temper. He nervously stuttered out...
" Lance man clam down yo... I... I just ate! You wouldn't want fly spew all over you!" He held up his hands, shielding himself, now seriously convinced Lance was totally unaware of his surroundings and lost it.
Lance stared angrily at the banner, his eyes unwavering. He dropped Todd and yelled again, this time enunciating every word very slowly,
"I AM GOING TO KILL PIETRO! I'M GONNA KILL HIM, I REALLY AM!"
"Well get in line!" Lance spun around to see the leader of the X Men rapidly approaching him.
Both Scott and Lance stood there staring at the banner, contemplating ways in which they should kill or cripple Pietro. Never before had the agreed on anything but now they were united with a cause, with one common goal - to KILL Pietro!
Jean, Evan and Kurt stood there with puzzled expressions plastered on their faces.
"Guys this is sort of scary! You know seeing them... together like that! Talking - getting along!" Evan flinched as if he had just seen the world's worst car accident. He tightly clutched his skateboard.
"Ja man, it's like you've got Hitler and Stalin planning strategies for the next World War or something!" Kurt chuckled slightly and then threw a glance Jean's way, who in turn gave a sad sigh at the sickening display before her. The three teenagers left the leaders standing there discussing their 'plan of attack', and entered the building for their 2nd period class.

Kitty felt a cool breeze rush right past her. When she looked again, she realized that the gush of wind didn't brush past her but rather enveloped her. She looked up at her captor and at that moment her saviour - getting her away from Scott - and smiled warmly. She had to admit to herself that it was nice being in his arms again but she quickly pushed reality back in.
They stopped behind the deserted science building, Pietro staring at her intently. Neither of them spoke, a barrier wedged deeply between them.
To Kitty, the silence was deafening. She had to say something.
"Pietro... why are you doing this?" she gave an exasperated sigh.
He cocked a brow, "what? Tell me Kitty - what am I doing?"
Kitty's eyes wandered aimlessly around as if she searched for an answer. "You... you can't change anything that's happened to us, it's over Pietro we just have to accept it." She paused for a brief moment looking a bit skeptical. "There is nothing between us!" She had stated it plainly but obviously trying to convince herself, rather than Pietro.
He was down but he was not out. He wasn't going to feel hurt or sorry for himself. Nor was he going to play the pleading card or that of a sick puppy. Rather he counter-attacked. *And ACTION!...*
Pietro smiled widely. "Are you positive there isn't anything more between us Kitty?"
"What do you mean am I positive? Of course I am! We agreed that it would be better if we go our separate ways. Pietro you said you'd leave me alone!" She folded her arms across her chest, an annoyed expression graced her face.
*Okay I think she weakening - sort of!*
"We agreed to go our separate ways?" he asked her childishly, "I don't recall anything of the sort!"
Kitty shook at her head at his impossibility. "Pietro please... let's just put everything behind us and start over - what do you say?"
He smiled devilishly. "Why of course Kitty, we can start over!" He pulled her into his arms, which caught Kitty by surprise. "Oh Kitten you don't know how happy I am that we're friends again." He hugged her tighter.
Kitty tightened her grip around him. She missed him a lot, she hadn't realised how much up until this moment. How much she had missed him calling her Kitten - a nickname she despised at first. She felt safe again but they were just friends now... friends. She cleared her throat and looked up at him, into his large blue eyes.
"Um Pietro... don't you think that banner is kind of embarrassing? What if you get into trouble?"
He smiled at her concern, "there's nothing embarrassing about it. I told you I loved you Kitty and I honestly meant it. I don't care who knows!"
Kitty blushed bright red. She still loved him, no doubt about it. But going back to what they had before would only complicate things again. Before she knew it his lips had gravitated towards hers. It was slow and blissful, as if they were sharing their first kiss all over again.
They stood there in each other's arms, neither one wanting to break apart. The bell above rang for 3rd period class, unfortunately ending their already breathless kiss.
"Oh my gosh, I'm late for class..." Kitty glanced at her watch.
Pietro laughed at her innocence, obviously she hadn't realised what just happened. "Yeah Kitten by about two hours!"
"No I can't be late Pietro... I've got a quiz this period." She picked up her backpack, "I've got to go."
He held her hand. "Kitty do you realise what just happened here?"
"Yeah... yeah I do Pietro." She looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Author's Note: Well how was it? Be honest alright. Well problem - what should happen next? Should I continue or just leave our couple there - wondering about their relationship, while Lance and Scott are planning to brutalize him. I didn't mean for it to go so far with Pietro and Kitty but when I got to writing everything just flowed out onto the page, I couldn't stop. What should Lance and Scott do? Review and let me know... please!
