So we went to the mall and we talked a bit about well everythin really we got to know each other better and she told me about her other friends that lived at the institute and I tried to look remotely interested but really I didn't care. I looked over at Rogue and she look how I felt absolutely bored outta me mind I mean ok there's shopping and then there's like going over the top I mean Kitty just bought everything she thought was uh "cute" and I didn't really mind I mean my friends back home were kinda like this only there where something's they didn't buy I just felt like shouting "WHY DON'T YOU JUST BUY THE WHOLE DAMN STORE! SO WE CAN GO HOME ALREADY" but its me we're talking about so I didn't I just sat there bored waiting for Kitty to finish trying on the whole shop or store or whatever the hell you want to call it.

I think Rogue noticed I was bored when I started giggling to myself because I was day dreaming about what kitty's face would be if the only shops in the mall sold mine and Rogue's kinda clothes I think it's safe to say she would die. Rogue came up to me she hadn't actually said anything to me since we left the school anyway she gave me a funny look and asked what was so funny so I told her obviously (I mean people at home think I'm crazy don't need complete strangers who I'll kinda be living with think that aswell). Rogue seemed to think it was funny too and we started talking mostly about how she didn't like and I quote "Perfect Jean Grey". Of course at that point I hadn't met her so I just stayed silent and nodded occasionally to show I was actually listening or pretending to listen. Anyway Kitty FINALLY finished trying on all the clothes and asked why I hadn't got anything so I had to explain to her that most of this store had alot of pink in and I do NOT do pink.


We went back to the institute, the scary guy from before was cleaning his bike (well I think he was he was defiantly doin something with the bike) and he looked at me well more like glared which kinda scared me (come on if he looked at you like that you'd be scared too). "Found yer little friend then half-pint?" he said well more like he sorta half said half growled or somethin I just looked at kitty who explained that she'd called just before they came out of school to see if I was at the institute. This guy really gave me the creeps and I kind of started inching closer to Rogue who of course gave me a funny look I mean wouldn't you give a short English kid who day dreams about kitty having to wear mosher/goth clothes started inching towards you? (I know I probably would and I'm the short English kid). Well anyway I think he noticed and he kinda smirked at me, which scared me even more so shit, do something quick! I did the old smile and wave and began to move myself behind Rogue, I figure hey if he's gonna hurt me he'll have to get through her and my guess would be that he (I hope) liked her enough not to. And at that point Kitty decided she would grab my arm and drag me inside which for once in my whole life I did not mind being dragged by a girl in pink that says 'like' more than me.

Ok so. I've been stuck on a plane next to god knows who for god knows how long I think I may have fallen asleep (That or I zoned out more than usual), then when I got to Kitty's place a scary guy answered the door said she was still at school and all I could say in a really tiny voice when he said I could wait for her "no I'll find her at the school I think I past it on the way over here" and ran off before he could say anything else. Then I fell off a wall because I was day dreaming and then was bored outta my mind at the mall then the same guy scared me and now I was being pulled around the institute by a over excited girl in pink. Well this was defiantly the strangest day of my life and believe me my life is very very strange.


After the rather boring tour of the mansion we ended up in the kitchen and to my rather unfortunate luck there was alot of people there and of course they all turned to look at me. While Kitty introduced me "This is like Clover you remember her that English girl I've like been talking to" there were a few oh yeahs and waves and of course me being me I just waved smiled and turned bright red oh the joy of being me. Then if that wasn't bad enough the scary man decided to at that moment walk in and stand right behind me. Well this day just gets better and better don't it, the girl kitty said was called Jean looked at me which also freaked me out why is she looking at me does she know what I'm thinking, uh hey one paranoid mosh girl over here ok I really need to get away from the scary guy think think dammit think aha "H-hey Kitty y-you didn't sh-show me your room," I said well more stuttered quietly.
"Oh right sure like come on" and she led me away back up the stairs and just as we got to the stairs I gave a sigh of relief.


Meanwhile in the kitchen -Narrator POV-

"Is it just me or did she seem like she really doesn't want to be here?" Ray asked in between eating his peanut butter sandwich ((mm peanut butter uh oh where was I oh yea))
"She's afraid of Logan" Jean stated like everybody knew
Logan at that point raised his eyebrow "what?"
Jean looked up from the magazine she'd been reading and everyone was looking at her "uh well she was uh thinking uh she just thinks of you as the 'scary guy' and apparently she's uh not having a good day"
"She ain't even one of us and your goin through her head! That just ain't right" Rogue said crossing her arms over her chest "and what did ya do to her to make her afraid of ya?" she asked looking a Logan suspiciously. Logan glared at Rogue "all I did was answer the door not my fault if the kids a wimp"
