Chapter Seven.
A/N: Here's the next chapter...
I don't own X Men Evolution.
Monday was finally here. It was the longest weekend ever, especially since I spent half of it thinking about Kitty. I couldn't wait to see her, to talk to her. I wonder what she did this weekend. Well there was only one way to find out.
"Hey guys what's up?"
"Pietro my man, what's shaking?"
"Nothing much, how about you Rogue?"
"What do you mean? What did you see? I didn't do anything!"
"Chill Rogue, I was just asking."
"She's a little jumpy, too much sugar, you know."
"And you would know all about that wouldn't you Lance?"
"Come again?"
"Drop the innocent act guys. I saw you in front of Levis, all smoochy and lovey and stuff."
"I told you we wouldn't be able to fool him for long Rogue! He's our best friend, we should have just told him in the first place."
She gave him a sharp jab in his side with her elbow.
"Yeah Rogue! What, are you afraid that I would embarrass you guys or something!" Pietro stifled the urge to laugh, although he wasn't doing a very good job of it.
"You see that Lance. That's exactly why I didn't tell him!"
"Don't sweat it Rogue, I knew you liked Lance all along. All that talk about not leaving you alone with Lance and his sense of humour, a dead give away."
"Great now everything's out in the open I don't have to hide and put my arms around you, like right now for example. Wait a minute, what's wrong with my sense of humour?"
Pietro shook his head in disbelief. Sometimes Lance was just all too clueless. "You are such an idiot man. Although Rogue, it does hurt that you've been ragging on me about Kitty and it turns out, you like this joker!"
"Yeah Rogue you've totally been... hey!"
"Come on Pietro. Lance is just Lance and Kitty is... well she she's just... weird."
Pietro knitted his eyebrows together. Although he had to admit that he didn't know Kitty all that well, he still had a strong urge to defend her. "Look I've accepted your relationship with Lance, however dysfunctional it may be, now it's only fair that you give Kitty a chance."
Lance looked at her questionly, "what have you got to lose Rogue? I mean Pietro does seem to like her and he hasn't ended up in the lake across town yet so maybe we should just give her a chance."
Rogue cocked a brow and after a slight pause she gave a long sigh. "Alright then, I just don't want to see you get hurt. Just be careful okay!"
"Hey you know me." I offered her my famous trademark smirk.
"Yeah I do and please, just be careful!"
Lance and Rogue, who would have guessed it? It was sort of disgusting though, afterall they were my best friends and it's always weird when your two best friends get together. Anyways they've made a love connection and now it's time that I did too. However I do need the girl to make a connection with, who I wasn't seeing.
Okay this was weird. The day is over and I've seen no sign of Kitty. Was she sick or something? Was she hurt? What if she was in an accident or something? What if she fell and hit her head and was lying somewhere in a ditch? Okay now I'm just being paranoid. Oh man I'm hanging around Lance too much.
I headed home straight after school to see if I could get some work done on my speech but I just couldn't. It keep nagging at me and nagging at me, where could she be?
"Knock, knock," Dad poked his head through the door, "can I come in?"
"Sure Dad, what's up? Wait a minute, shouldn't you be resting."
"I just wanted to check on you. Lately you seem sort of distant."
"I'm fine Dad, just a little nervous about graduation. Getting up there in front all those people."
"You'll do fine. I want to talk to you about something."
"It sounds serious."
"I'm afraid it is son. Today I went to see another two specialists and..."
"And what did he say? Did he find anything?"
"No he didn't find out what's been going wrong with me all these years but he did find out something else."
"What? What is it?"
"I don't exactly know how to say this..."
"Just say it."
"My body's deteriorating Pietro, fast. The doctors said that it's all happening so fast that they don't know how much longer I'll...
Pietro eyes went completely wide.
"...have to live."
"No! No... this can't be happening! This can't be true! We'll get another another opinion."
"I've been to over a hundred doctors in the last five months Pietro – no more... no more."
"But what if..."
"These two doctors can't be wrong Pietro, they both gave exactly the same outcome. I'm tired and I just want to spend the remainder of my time with my son."
Pietro drew in a deep breath as he fought back the tears and the chunks about to rise up in his throat. All he could do was sit there and stare at his father. He was rendered completely speechless.
"I... I don't know what it is you want me to say exactly." His gaze fell to the floor. There was dead silence in the room.
"I'm gonna miss you Dad... I love you..."
