(I forgot this in the last chapter; please don't anyone throw me off for it! I DO NOT OWN THE X-MEN, nor any version thereof! I am really sorry for forgetting, and will grovel at your feet forever if you forgive me! Promise!)

Kurt sighed as he made his way to the door. He hadn't meant to lose his temper with Kitty like that – he hadn't even realised how much her playing that Cher CD had annoyed him. He wondered what he had done with it. It wasn't like him to forget something like that…it wasn't like him to do something like that…and he could tell that he'd better remember soon, if he ever wanted Kitty to smile at him again…but that isn't the only thing you need to remember, Kurt. There's a lot more going on here then just memory loss…he pushed the voice away.

"Come in, Kurt," the professor called. The door opened, and a blue face peered around the edge. "Professor, I'm sorry. I – I'll find her CD, I promise. I just – need some time," Kurt began, his tail twitching nervously as he walked forwards. The professor smiled at him reassuringly, but his eyes were concerned. He had been keeping a channel to Kurt open since Jean had caught him in mid-leap, and he knew that Kurt had no more idea of why he had behaved like that then anyone else. Such behaviour was unusual for Kurt at any time; not even realising that he was doing it suggested that something was seriously wrong.

"I know, Kurt. Do you have any idea of what you did with it?" Professor Xavier asked. Kurt blushed darkly, and shook his head no. "Then perhaps you had better buy her a new one, just in case." Kurt nodded, but remained silent. The professor sighed slightly, puzzled by his behaviour. Normally, he'd have expected Kurt to say a lot more, and get very excited. Now that he thought about it, Kurt had been acting subdued for the past week. Perhaps his sudden change in character wasn't so sudden, after all…

Kurt watched the professor carefully. He wasn't sure what he should be saying. How could he apologise enough for – for whatever he'd done, he filled in, realising that he still didn't know. The last thing he remembered was trying to go to sleep, because he was so tired, and hearing music from Kitty's room – and then he was suspended in mid-air, in the middle of the living room, and Kitty was yelling at him that he was a psycho…he shook his head, trying to remember what he had done – or forget what she had called him.

Xavier frowned. Kurt truly had no idea of what he had done; the memory was not buried, it simply – didn't exist. And how could that be possible? He had done those things. Jean and Kitty could both bear witness to that. And everyone remembers when they do something so out of character…unless it isn't them doing it. He considered the idea for a few moments, then shook his head. If Kurt were schizophrenic, then there would have been other signs. He would have felt the 'new' personality in the house, and there had been no strangers recently. Perhaps he should just look further…

"Kurt, I believe that it might be a good idea if I were to try and help you remember what you have done," he said, coming to a decision. Kurt froze, looking more scared then Xavier had ever seen him. "NEIN!" he cried, the terror he was projecting so great that Xavier flinched back. "Nein, no, professor, I promise I'll be gut, I'll buy Kitty a new CD, I'll do eferyone's chores, I'll nefer lose my temper again – please, professor, chust – don't do it!"

Professor X stared at him in astonishment. Kurt blushed darker then before, wondering why he had reacted so strongly to the suggestion. Professor X wouldn't have made it if he didn't feel it was necessary, after all. And yet, just the thought of having someone else inside his mind right now terrified him beyond all imagining.

"Very well, Kurt. I would never force you into something that you are so afraid of," the professor responded at last. "I think that perhaps you had better try to get some more sleep now."

"Ya, zat sonds gut," Kurt agreed thankfully, yawning hugely. "Danke, Professor." He turned and walked out of the room, much to the surprise of Xavier, who had expected him to teleport.

Scott! Logan! Ororo! the professor called as soon as he sensed that Kurt was asleep. We need to have a meeting about Kurt, now!
