Pietro was approaching fast and I couldn't make myself solid again. *Help me... someone please help me!*
#Kitty you need to calm down and just concentrate on becoming solid.#
Kitty stared at the red head; her eyes were shut tight and she seemed engrossed in her thoughts. Kitty did the same, shutting her eyes and concentrating on becoming visible again.
... ...
She opened her eyes and looked down at her body again, she was still transparent. She hysterically thought, *This isn't working!* She heard Pietro call out to her again, pushing his way through the throng of students.
#It isn't working because you're too tense. Now... take a deep breath, relax and concentrate.#
Kitty followed the red head's advice to the letter and soon began feeling a strange sensation. She quickly snapped open her eyes and saw that see had become visible again. She breathed a sigh of relief. The red head walked up to her smiling and inquired if she was alright.
"Yeah I'm fine and thank you. Um... who are you?"
"My name's Jean Grey and I also have special abilities, like you. The only difference between us is that I've learned to control them, turn them on and off in a matter of speaking. And you can too Kitty. Come to this address tomorrow afternoon at four and I promise all you questions will be answered." With that said, she left.
Kitty eyed the piece of paper sceptically and read out the name - Professor Charles Xavier. She wondered what she would find there. She soon felt two strong arms encircle her small waist, and a warm cheek next to hers.
"Hey Kit, what's up?" Pietro pecked her on the cheek.
"Nothing. Just waiting for the bell to ring." She chewed on her bottom lip.
The crowd of students had now dispersed and were scattered all over the hall in little groups - High School, what a trip! Kurt and his friends were quietly talking next to his locker and the red head - I mean Jean, threw a glance my way. She smiled at me but then caught sight of Pietro. Her smile soon faded. I furrowed my burrows and looked at her in bewilderment when she sent me a message,
#Everything will be explained tomorrow afternoon, don't worry.#
What did she mean by that? Was I supposed to be cautious of Pietro or something? He snapped me out of my trance by placing a kiss on my lips.
"Kitty is something wrong?"
"No I'm fine." I smiled up at him. "Hey what's your first class?''
"Uh, Geometry. And at this present time I'm flunking and need to get a B on my next test to pull up my grade curve. However, if I were to have an awesome student like you tutor me there would be no problem.''
"Do you think that's such a good idea?"
"Of course it is Kitty! We will be able to spend so much time together."
"Yeah I know but the school already has this tutoring programme set-up and I don't want to interfere. Hey maybe a tutor has already been assigned to you.''
"Who like that guy?" He randomly pointed to Kurt. "Come on Kit, I don't want someone else tutoring me when I could have you.''
"You don't even know him! Kurt's a great guy, plus he's really smart!"
"You mean he really is a tutor! Wow and here I just picked him by chance - that's funny!"
Kitty rolled her eyes. "For that remark he really should be your tutor." She scuffed at him and walked off.
Pietro stood there with a blank expression on his face, "what did I do?"
The day dragged on and on. The period before lunch was a snooze and I couldn't wait for it to be over with. The lunch bell rang and I remembered that Pietro and I planned to have our schedules changed around so we would have lunch together. I didn't want to see him. I decided to have lunch outside on the bleachers maybe even take in a little football practice.
"Hi Kit, what are you doing out here?''
"I'm performing brain surgery! What does it look like Kory, I'm having lunch.''
"Back up a sec, why are you all over me? I never said anything.''
"I'm sorry; I'm just rattled right now. My teachers are just all over my back, as usual.''
"Well for me it's just, you know, perfect.''
"Yeah I've had a glimpse into your world - it's not pretty. Do you mind? I kind of want to be alone!"
"Well see you at home.''
That was weird! Kory hardly ever talked to me in school. The day was beginning to take it's toll. I needed to take a rest, clear my head. I decided to go home sick. Dad came and picked me up and went straight back to work. We had a little talk and we were going on a vacation, just the two of us. I was excited; we hardly ever saw each other recently.
The afternoon flew by and soon school was over. I was bored out of my mind. The doorbell rang. It was Pietro. I didn't want to see him right now but I knew if I just left him there he would just keep ringing the doorbell.
"Hey Pietro, what do you want?''
"I can see you're still angry about today and I'm really sorry for that. I didn't see you for lunch, what happened?''
"I wasn't feeling to well so I came home sick. Anymore questions Matlock?''
"Sorry for caring, I'll leave now.''
"Wait I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap, please come in.''
He came in and sat down. He kept staring at the ground so I knew he felt uncomfortable. I decided to break the ice.
"So how was school today?''
"Huh, what? Oh it was all right. I flunked a geo quiz today.''
"You got a quiz the first day back?''
"Yeah and I got a tutor too.''
"Really who is it?''
"It's your friend Kurt Wagner. I've got my first session in a few minutes. Do you mind if we have it here?''
"Here? You want to have it here? Why?''
"I didn't see you all day, please Kit!''
"Alright you can stay but you have to listen to Kurt and you have to promise to do everything he says.''
"I'll behave I promise.''
The doorbell rang. I opened the door and it was Kurt. I invited him in.
"Hey Kurt!" Pietro exclaimed half-heartedly. "How did you know I was here?"
"I didn't. I just came over to see if Kitty was alright. I heard she wasn't feeling to well." Kurt stared dreamily at Kitty.
This didn't go unnoticed by Pietro though. He cleared his throat in absolute annoyance and brushed past Kurt to get his books.
Kitty noticed Pietro's change in attitude and furrowed her brows. She shrugged it off and turned her attention towards Kurt.
''So Kurt how was school today?''
''Well considering the way it started out, surprising it wasn't that bad. I didn't see much of you though.''
"Yeah, I wasn't feeling to well so I came home right after lunch.'' Kurt stared at her sympathetically for a long while and it began to creep her out. She cleared her throat. "Hey about today... I'm sorry that Kory was involved, she should know better than to be hanging around with those guys."
"It's alright Kitty. It wasn't you and that's all that matters."
"Yeah but sometimes she can be so gross. But I'm just related to her, I can't control the things she does."
"It's okay Kitty... really!"
"Well as long as you're cool with everything." He began to stare again. I shifted around uncomfortably thinking of something else to say.
"Congratulations on your first tutoring session.''
"Thanks, I just hope Pietro is not as dumb as he looks.''
"Ha, ha very funny Kurt. But Pietro's really cool once you get to know him; he's just having a little trouble with Geo. Just give him a chance, you'll like him I promise.''
And in waltzed Pietro, right on cue, books in hand. I headed up the stairs to do my homework from the four classes I had before lunch.
TO BE CONTINUED.
