Chapter 11

Jean, Ororo and Scott sat in Xavier's office. Jean had told them that Yuriko was here. Ororo and Scott weren't happy with the fact that Yuriko, one who was a bad one some month ago, was now living with them in one house.

"We should bring her back." Scott said.

"To where?" Jean asked him. "She has nowhere to go and Lita's happy that she's here and so is Yuriko. Lita is the only family member for Yuriko and so is she for Lita. I don't think she's bad anymore. She has changed. Stryker doesn't control her anymore."

"But she could possibly only play the good and helpless girl." Ororo noticed.

"Do you want to make Lita unhappy? Her parents are dead. Yuriko's mother could be dead too. They only have them." Jean said. "If Lita goes back to Tokyo in some months, Yuriko can go with her."

"In some months?" Scott said outraged. "She's still here for about nine months!"

"Scott, please." Xavier demanded. "Yuriko seems to have changed. I think Jean's right. Yuriko is going to stay with us; either until Lita will leave and she'll go with her or until Yuriko doesn't want to stay with us longer."

Ororo looked at him urgent. "I'm sorry for the question, but, are you crazy?"

"No, I'm not and besides, Lita was kidnapped, we don't know what happened to her. She could turn into a bad one too, but we keep her here. So, I don't see a good point why we shouldn't keep Yuriko here. We have to give her a chance."

Scott sighed and shook his head. "I won't take any responsibility for anything that will happen."

Xavier nodded. "I know and just that you know it, I'll take every responsibility for what could happen or not."

"I hope nothing will happen." Scott whispered and left the office.

Ororo looked at Jean and then at the professor. "Where's Yuriko now?" She asked.

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

"And that's me when I was two." Lita said and showed Yuriko a picture.

"You look so sweet!"

"Yeah, but I think the horse didn't like that I was stretching his ears!" She started laughing and Yuriko followed her.

They sat in Lita's room although Yuriko had her own one. They talked about the old times for about two hours now and in Lita's view they could talk about those times for the next few days. Lita knew it would take a long time until they would know each other like they were raised up together, but this conversation was possibly a good start for this.

Lita turned the page of the small photo album she had taken with her. Yuriko looked at the pictures. She pointed at one of them. "Who are these girls?"

"Friends of mine. They're here too. Well some of them not all."

"Do you miss your friends? I mean those ones who are not here?"

"Yes I do, but I know I'll see them all again. It will take a while; I mean ... if I'm right I'll stay here nine month yet."

"This is a long time." Yuriko noticed. "What about your friends here? I mean, these guys here in school, they are your friends or?"

Lita nodded sadly. "Yes, they are. I don't know what'll happen to them when I leave. Sometimes I wished I could stay here forever, but then I recognized I would leave my friends in Tokyo alone and I know I can't do this. I love them like they were my family and although the people here seem to become my family as well; I would never leave my friends."

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

Logan sat in the kitchen. He had put his face in his hands. When Rogue entered the room he looked up. "Hey." He said.

"Hey." Rogue answered. "Are you okay? You look like ... well, you look disappointed. What happened?"

"You know Yuriko's here?"

She nodded. "Yeah, Jean told me. Is that a problem for you?"

"No, it's just ... I heard a conversation between her and Lita; coincidentally. I mean I stood in front of the door and it was open a little bit. I heard that Lita said that she would never leave her friends in Tokyo because they were a family for her."

Rogue shook her head confused. "What's the problem? Everyone knew that she would return to Tokyo some day." She made a pause. "Wait, this has something to do with the kiss between you and her, doesn't it?"

He nodded disappointed. "I don't want to lose her and I don't know what I'll do when she's gone."

"Have you ever thought what she feels like? You're just like Bobby. He just thinks about himself. Because of my mutation I can't touch him, I can't touch anyone. He has a problem with that, but what about me? If you see it from my view it's a bigger problem for me and for Lita the problem of leaving us, you, is bigger for her too. First she left all her friends in Tokyo and than she has to leave us! Her loss is bigger than yours."

Logan looked at Rogue. She was right.

Rogue walked over to him and put her hands on his shoulder. "Enjoy the time with her as long as she is here. Go out with her, take her to the cinema or take her out to a restaurant. Have faith in yourself and ask her."

"Your right and maybe you should do the same with Bobby."

"But he has to ask me. He's the guy; he has to take me out on a date. This is an ... ."

"Ancient truth, I know, Lita told me already about that kind of stuff." Logan stood up and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going?" Rogue asked.

"I'll see what kind of restaurants Lita likes." He answered and smiled. Before he left the kitchen, Bobby came in. Logan grabbed his arm. "I'll give you a good advice: Take Rogue out on a date. It would be better for your relationship."

With that he left the kitchen. Bobby looked at Rogue confused. "What was that?"

"He's going to ask Lita for a date."

"Oh." Bobby answered. "Do you want to go on a date with me?" He asked with a smile.

Rogue widened her eyes and smiled at him. "Sure."

"Okay, I'll look for a restaurant." He said and left the room. Rogue sat down at the table and smiled to herself.

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

Logan knocked at Lita's door. When she answered him, he entered it. Yuriko was still in there, but she didn't recognize him as the one who killed her months ago. Lita looked at him surprised. "Hey, what provide me the honour?" She asked smiling.

"I want to ask you out on a date. Tomorrow. In a restaurant of your choice."

"Is this your seriousness?" She asked and raised an eyebrow.

He nodded. "Yes it is. So, what's your answer?"

"Wait. I have to think about that a moment --- Okay, yes, I want to go out with you, but you can decide where we go. You live here longer, so you know the good restaurants."

"Okay, tomorrow is okay for you?"

"Sure, it is."

"Okay, I'll catch you up at eight o'clock."

"Sure."

"Bye."

"Bye."

Yuriko looked at her sister. "What was that?"

"This is the successful try of a nervous guy to get out on a date with a girl." She said and smiled. Then she lay down on the bed and looked at the ceiling. "I'm finally having a date with him." She said happily.

Yuriko shook her head and smiled. "Sisters."

Lita sat upright and faced her. She grabbed a pillow and threw it right against Yuriko's face. Yuriko turned round and looked angrily at Lita. Lita took the hand in front of her mouth. "I ... I'm ... sorry." She said and started laughing before the same pillow hit her head.

"Hey!" She said and she and Yuriko started to throw on each other with the pillows.

Ororo and Jean stood in the doorframe and smiled. "There goes your bad girl." Jean said.

"Maybe I was wrong." Was Ororo's response. "And, hey, they also start acting like they were sisters that lived together their whole life on."

"Stop it!" Lita demanded while Yuriko started to tickle her, but Yuriko didn't listen to her. She was happy that she had found her sister and she swore to herself that she would never leave her again.

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

The next day had come sooner than Lita had thought. The school was over by now and she had finished her homework with a little help of Ami. Right now Lita stood in front of her closet and she had the one problem: She didn't know what to wear.

Yuriko, who actually wanted to talk with Lita, gave her sister a confused look. "Can you answer me one question?" She asked, looking at a black top which Lita had thrown on her bed.

"Sure." Lita answered while she was trying a blue dress.

"You have a date with Logan; today, but your date is at eight pm and we have just four pm! Why are you making yourself ready so soon?"

"Nearly every girl does it."

"But what's the reason?"

"Maybe because we're afraid that we don't look good enough" She sighed as she looked into a mirror. Then she took of the dress and threw it back into the closet. "There's always something that isn't right in our eyes: the outfit, the make up or the hair. I don't know why we act like this." She answered and shrugged.

Yuriko stood up and walked to Lita's closet. She picked out a short black dress and handed it to her sister. Than she took the hair slide out of Lita's hair. "This will look good. You're going to wear that. Understand me?"

Lita looked at the dress and nodded. "What am I doing now?"

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

Meanwhile Rogue had the same problem, though she had no one who helped her to decide what she should wear this evening. Rogue asked herself what the professor would say to Bobby's idea: Eating in the town. She was unsure if it was a good idea at all.

"Damn." She said and threw some clothes on the ground. At the same moment someone knocked at the door. "Come in." Rogue said.

To her surprise Lita entered the room. "Hey, what are you doing here? I thought you have a date with Logan. You should get yourself ready."

"I know, but Yuriko said what I should wear today, so I'm 'rescued', but I think you need a little help, don't you?" She asked and pointed on the clothes.

Rogue nodded sadly. "I don't know what to wear."

"Nervous." Lita noticed.

"Don't tell me you aren't nervous at all!?" "I am, but if I want to, nobody would ever notice that. I can control myself quiet well. Not always but sometimes; depends on my mood." She answered while she tried to walk to Rogue's closet without stumble over her clothes. When she finally reached the closet she looked inside and recognized that it was empty. She looked back on the ground. "Don't tell me that's all you have?"

"It is and nothing of this stuff is suitable for the date today!"

"Okay, well, I don't get why you don't have more things. Well, I don't have so many clothes as well because I'll leave you someday, but you ... know what? Put the clothes back in the closet. I'll be right back." Lita said and left the room. A few minutes later Rogue started to put her clothes back into the closet.

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

When the door opened Yuriko nearly got a shock. Lita looked at her confused. "Did I scare you?"

"Some kind of. I looked at the pictures again and I was a little bit distracted." She answered and looked at Lita questioning. "I thought you wanted to help Rogue with the clothing?"

"Yeah, but Rogue has nothing for today and with nothing I mean nothing!" She said and started to rummage through her clothes. "I have to find something for her."

"What about that blue dress you tried just now?" Yuriko asked.

Lita turned round and widened her eyes, than she searched for the dress and ran out of the room again. "Thank you! You just rescued Rogue!"

"No problem." Yuriko answered and started smiling.

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

Lita opened the door to Rogue's room without a word. Rogue was just finished with tiding up. She looked at Lita with big eyes. "You were fast."

"You too. I found a dress."

"A dress? You know about my mutation don't you?" Rogue asked her disbelieving. "I'm going to kill the waiter!"

Lita couldn't avoid smiling. "Forget the waiter. It's your first date in town, with Bobby. The motto for today: Forget your mutation. I know it's difficult, but I think the dress will fit to you. Come on, just this time." Lita said and smiled at her.

Rogue nodded reluctant. "Okay, but if someone gets hurt, your responsible for that."

"If you want to. Now try the dress." Lita answered and threw the dress right into Rogue's arms. Rogue looked at it and went into the bathroom. After some minutes Lita heard her voice.

"This dress is short!"

"It should reach to your knees." Lita replied.

"It does, but it's short anyway."

"Would you like a long dress or is it too short too?"

"It wouldn't be THAT short."

"Do you like it?"

"What? The dress?"

"Yes."

"Yes."

"So where's the problem, apart from the fact that you could kill the waiter?"

"This is not funny." Rogue replied and came out of the bathroom. Lita scrutinized her. "Hey, you look good . . . and don't worry about the waiter."

Rogue smiled. "Looks like I have an outfit for this evening. What do you wear?"

"A dress too." Lita answered and let herself fall on the bed. She sighed. "I wonder how Logan and Bobby explain the professor the fact that we have a date in town."

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

"Are you two kidding? You can't be serious if you're talking about a date in town." Xavier said and shook his head. "It's too dangerous. What if someone touches Rogue?"

"We're going to be careful!" Bobby promised. "Professor, please! I know it could be dangerous, but it don't has to be! Only because of her mutation you can't forbid us to go out in the town!"

Suddenly Xavier nodded. "Okay, you two can go."

"Yeah! Thank you, professor!" Bobby said and jumped into the air happily. Than he ran out of the office straight to Rogue's room. Logan turned to the professor. He was angry. "Why did you allow him to go out with Rogue? Don't tell that was a good argument?"

"I allowed him because he really wants to go out with his girlfriend and it was a good argument. We can't put a disadvantage on her just because her mutation. I just wanted to look how Bobby would react, if I would say they're not allowed to go out."

"And I want to go out with Lita, really. Professor, please!" Logan said sarcastically imitating a teenage voice.

"The answer is still no." Xavier said and began to write something.

Logan walked towards him and put his hands on the desk. "Professor, listen to me. I don't know why you don't allow me to go out with Lita, but I really want to. She just stays here for one year and nearly four months have past. She will return to Tokyo someday and the only thing I want is to go out with her."

Xavier looked up. "Okay, I'm convinced. You can go, but you and Lita will go in the same restaurant like Bobby and Rogue."

Logan widened his eyes. "This is your seriousness or? We have to play the babysitter for them."

"Yes, it is my seriousness and I want you to go with them so that I can be sure nothing will happen. Go and have a nice time, but be careful. And don't return to the mansion too late in the night and no stress with other people in town. Get that?"

"Yeah, I get that. The only thing I don't get is how you make your decisions. But I don't need an explanation. I'll go now. And again, thank you!" Logan said and left the room immediately.

Xavier shook his head and smiled. "Guys and their dates!"
