A/N: You guys, I am really sorry about these short ass chapters! But I was
already writing this story when I figured out how to get it on FF.net.
Things will be a lot better after a couple more chapters! I promise! But I
need your help. I'm going to start another story with all my favorite
couples and I really, really need your help! Please, if you have any ideas
on scenarios I could use, I'd be really happy! Just email them to me! (All
my favorite couples are listed on my profile.) Thanks!

Chapter 8: Making Deals with the Use of Kung Fu
Lance sauntered toward Jubilee. She had her back turned and was looking at some weird picture with a worried expression. 'Wow, she looks upset. Maybe I should introduce myself.' Lance thought. Lance slowly made his way over toward her. Just as he was going to tap her she whirled around, grabbed his arm, and threw him across the room.
"What the hell do you want?!" Jubilee shrieked. By now everyone in the room was staring at her and Lance. Lance groaned. He wasn't expecting that. He had hit a wall and landed on his head. Jubilee was about to repeat herself when she realized who she had thrown. She recognized him as the boy she drooled over earlier. Jubilee gaped at Lance as he tried to get up, but to no avail. Finally her legs began to work as she ran to help lance to his feet. She grabbed his arm and steadied him.
"Oh my God! Are you okay? I didn't mean that!" Jubilee cried. Lance looked at Jubilee's expression. He desperately wanted to know her name.
"What's your name?" he asked rather quickly. Jubilee was a little surprised that he hadn't responded to her apology.
"Jubilation Lee. But my friends call me Jubilee. Are you okay mister um..."
"Lance. Lance Alvers. And yeah, I'm fine. That was some throw Jubilee. I'm impressed." He said with a smile. Jubilee blushed at his complement.
"Thanks, I guess. So Lance, what are you doing sneaking behind poor defenseless girls?" Lance laughed at her joke.
"Well I remember seeing you at the dock and just wanted to see if you were okay. You looked like you were worried about something. Anything I can do?" Jubilee looked away. She knew he was part of the brotherhood and that the brotherhood were the X-men's enemy.
"Why are you trying to help me? I know where you come from and so do you. So why?" Jubilee blurted somewhat confused. Lance shrugged.
"I dunno. You looked like you were worried so I thought I'd be a good person and try and help you. And besides, we're on vacation. It doesn't matter what our backgrounds are. And plus, I've never seen you before. So you wanna tell me what's wrong?" Jubilee shrugged and continued.
"Well, as you know Kitty, Rogue and Bobby came with me on this vacation. Me, Rogue, and Kitty were gonna share a room." Jubilee paused. Lance looked at her expectantly.
"So, what's the problem?" he asked gently.
"Well, we can't share a room with Bobby. And I was worried because we don't have enough money to buy him a room. And we don't know where he's gonna sleep." Lance chuckled at Jubilee.
"C'mon, I have an idea. We have to find my friend Pietro." Lance grabbed Jubilee's wrist and started to walk away. Jubilee was confused.
"Who's Pietro?" she asked.
"My friend. C'mon!" he replied. As they were running, Lance turned around to look at Jubilee. Her face was flushed beautifully and for some reason she was frowning. He still thought she was beautiful. But Lance soon found out why Jubilee was frowning. For he soon collided with none other than Rogue.
Rogue screamed as she, Lance, and Jubilee were knocked to the ground.
"What the hell is wrong with yuh! Watch where yuh goin'!" Rogue fumed. She took one look at Lance and mouth fell open. Lance was on top of Jubilee with his arms on either side of her, his face was inches apart from hers. Jubilee looked horrified at Rogue. But at the same time, she felt her stomach do a backflip as a smile slowly made its way across Lance's face. Jubilee grinned back dumbly. Suddenly she heard Kitty gasp along with Pietro and Bobby. Lance and Jubilee glanced at Pietro and Kitty. The look on their faces was a mixture of amusement, horror, and even more amusement. Bobby was about to laugh. Lance slowly rose off of Jubilee, regretting every second of it. Jubilee, also regretting it, got off of the floor. Rogue just sat there, bewildered. Then, anger took over.
"WHAT IN THE HELL IS GOIN' ON HERE?!" she yelled. Jubilee was about to protest when Rogue cut her off.
"Is everyone out tah get meh today? First, Kitty teases meh about a stupid picture, then Bobby pours ice down mah shirt, and now this! Am I really that prankable?" Rogue cried while getting to her feet. Bobby began to blush after Rogue made the ice comment. He really felt bad about what he did. Although it was pretty funny to see Rogue run around in circles screaming "Cold! Cold! Cold!'
Pretty soon, Rogue had calmed down and it was they're turn at the key desk. Rogue grabbed the key numbered 609 from a blond lady who repeatedly kept giggling at Bobby. Rogue didn't know why but she suddenly felt like ripping the girl's head off. But she pushed the thoughts to the back of her mind as she stormed off toward Kitty who was being pestered by Pietro non- stop.
"Pietro, go away! I really am trying my hardest to like, be nice! But all that can change you know!" Kitty snapped at Pietro.
"Aww, kitty-cat's getting' mad! C'mon Kitty, you know you want me! Admit it, then I'll leave you alone!" Pietro smirked.
"You are such a playboy! What makes you think I want you! I'd probably get cooties or something like that!" Kitty retorted. Pietro stared at Kitty then broke out in a fit of laughter.
"Cooties! Oh my god! You are such a valley girl! I haven't heard that word since-"
"Last week when you gave them to one of those bimbos you call dates?" Kitty finished for him. Pietro glared at kitty and then stormed off toward Lance who was chatting with Jubilee and Bobby. Rogue impatiently tapped her foot.
"Are ya'll yahoos ready yet?" she snapped. Lance stepped up to Rogue.
"Hey Rogue, Jubilee told me that you guys were having trouble finding a way to bunk with the popsicle over there. I offered to share mine and Pietro's room with him since it's only the two of us. Is that okay?" Lance asked. Rogue looked at Bobby who gave her a thumbs up and winked at her. Rogue's stomach did a somersault as she felt her face heat up.
"Yeah, um... whatever. It's cool wit meh." Rogue stumbled over her words. Lance grinned.
"Cool. Just make sure he has all his stuff, okay? And rogue, I know you have a thing for Bobby. But don't worry, we'll take good care of him." Lance whispered jokingly in her ear. Rogue turned bright red. Lance had pinpointed her feelings exactly. How the hell did he do that? Rogue was confused. She turned on her heel and stormed off toward her room with the rest of the gang close behind.
'This is gonna be a long cruise' Rogue thought.
A/N: Rogue's right! It is gonna be a long cruise! I haven't decided on my new story's name yet, but I will! Oh believe me, I will!
