Hangover Hell

Chapter Five: Rationalizing the Situation

*******

Jubilee sighed. Bobby looked at her angelic face and stared at her, almost apologetically, "Uh, Jubes Toad's calling should we.er." he began awkwardly then trailed off.

"You're hungry aren't you?" Jubilee asked quietly. Bobby gulped, she seemed pretty much in shock but she seemed to be faking a calm look. He nodded silently, she laughed sarcastically, "You're thinking about food at a time like this?"

"Jubes it's not that-" Bobby retorted defensively.

"Nah, it's okay, we'll have breakfast then sort this through, deal?" Jubilee suggested nonchalantly, piping her head up to see Bobby's reaction, which was a warm smile, "Deal," he replied.

They went downstairs where the brotherhood got all excited. "Hey yo, look at all this food! We all worked a little extra and ate a little less so you'd have an awesome breakfast!" Toad hopped excitedly.

Behind him was a mini buffet with all sorts of food that even Bobby or Jubilee never saw in the mansion. 'What ever happened to a normal breakfast?' Jubilee wondered feeling guilty if she and Bobby were to just leave the brotherhood. By the look on Bobby's face Jubilee could tell he was feeling the same way.

"We all cooked it and bought it especially for the newest members!" Fred's dopey voice exclaimed.

"Don't worry, it's not toxic, poisoned or half eaten, we made sure that Toad and Blob didn't get too close" Wanda laughed.

Lance came from behind with this friendly grin and welcomed them by saying "Welcome to your 'Welcome to the brotherhood' breakfast! We know you were all spoilt back in that mansion of yours so we're going to do our best to make the change easier on ya"

"Umm. really there's no need-" Jubes voiced out inaudibly but Wanda did hear her, "Actually there is, we're so glad that you guys came and joined the brotherhood, now go eat! Stuff yourselves crazy and Fred can have the leftovers"

*******

After exchanging looks Rogue turned her attention back to the alcolytes, "Whut tha hell are yuh saying? That WE did that!?" Rogue yelled angrily while her hand shot out to the mass tower of ruble.

"Yeah" Sabertooth growled viciously then moved his attention to Remy, "That was OUR base, yours AND mine!" he growled even more ferociously the lunged at Remy, thankfully he dodged and Sabertooth skidded on the ground behind Remy.

"Cut it out you two, I don't think they remember, well at least the sheila don't" Pyro intercepted.

"Remy don't think so, can't seem t'remember wiping out the base, y'sure it was us?" He asked.

"Positive" Piotr confirmed in his think Russian accent, "You know any possible explanations as to why ya mighta can't remember destroying the base?"

"Uh, we were drunk?" Rogue put forward uncertainly which gave them even dirtier looks from everyone.

*******

"Aww, that's so cute!" Kitty marveled flipping through one of Pietro's photo albums and referring to a picture of him as a 2 year old reaching out for a teddy bear.

"As long as you don't go around telling anyone" Pietro warned jokingly making Kitty giggle and flip the page.

"Why don't you keep many pictures of yourself? This whole album probably has 5 pictures of your entire childhood and the rest feature your sister" Kitty queried quizzically.

"Most our albums burnt down when my foster parents died and our house burnt down" He replied truthfully.

Kitty was surprised, she didn't really know much about his history, "I'm sorry to hear that." she spoke trailing off.

"Don't be, I don't go around feeling sorry for myself so neither should you, besides I'm over it really" Pietro explained lightening up the mood of the conversation.

Kitty grinned at him, glad that he practically ended that whole 'miserable' subject. She then went back to flipping through his album.

*******

After stuffing themselves to the fullest, Bobby and Jubilee sat on the edges of their seats leaning far back and clutching their bellies. That had been one awesome breakfast, better than any they ever had in the mansion and there was still so much left over on that mini buffet table.

"I don't *pant* think we can eat anymore" Bobby drew out still clutching his stomach and giving it a small pat, "That's been the best breakfast of our lives, right jubes?"

"Totally *pant* thanks so much! This has been incredible" Jubilee thanked.

"No problemo, yo!" Toad said bouncing on a seat and sitting. Fred's eyes widened and drool was hanging on the side of his mouth when his attention caught the large portion of the untouched mini buffet.

"You guys better not watch this, you might vomit, but I hope you guy's will get used to watching Blob eat.. Someday" Wanda advised with everyone nodding in agreement.

"In that case, we'll be upstairs, thanks again everyone"Jubilee smiled going up the stairs followed by Bobby.

***

When they reached their bedroom, Jubilee slammed the door shut and locked it, then turned back to Bobby, "Okay, how do we get outta this now?"

"You can't possibly even THINK of just ditching the brotherhood after THAT!" Bobby countered.

"Believe it or not, I have a conscience too! And I know there's no way we can leave them without feeling horrible!" Jubilee snapped back heatedly, not liking the way Bobby made it sound like she didn't care about what the brotherhood did.

"We're stuck!" Bobby declared with a sarcastic laugh raising his hands up for a second.

"What are you talking about, we can still get a divorce" Jubilee retorted

"Yeah, with all the legal stuff and papers and lawyers and solicitors, we'll get through that without anyone getting too suspicious huh? We'll just go to court get the papers and we're done" He scoffed sarcastically, "If we go try to get a divorce, don't you think by the time it actually happens, EVERYONE will know?"

"Shut up Bobby, at least I'm trying, besides are you saying we're going to HAVE to STAY married!?" Jubilee yelled

"Unless you want Jean and the professor zipping through our brains to rack it out, we have to act normal, pretend everything's the same!" Bobby notified crossing his arms.

Jubilee groaned, "And about the brotherhood?"

"Don't think I like our situation any more than you do! This is fucking up my mind okay? I don't have a friggen clue on what to do know" Bobby shouted in frustration.

"Great, just great!" Jubilee whined sarcastically, "Can we get anymore screwed?"

"We're leaving for school guys!" Came Lance's voice, "Hurry up!"

"Listen, we go through the day like nothing's changed, but we're with the brotherhood okay?" Bobby suggested

"What!? .errr. Fine" Jubilee replied reluctantly.

*******

"We should all kill you right now!" Sabertooth hissed menacingly. Rogue flinched at the malice of his voice. Then the alarm on her watch went off, this was the time she'd usually be getting up to get ready for school. Remy caught that right away and grabbing one of her gloved hands, he charged a piece of ruble and used it as a hoverboard to exit the scene and get Rogue to school.

*******

"We should get going right about now" Pietro announced huskily helping Kitty up from the couch.

"Well, I'm ready!" Kitty sighed.

They walked together until Kitty came to a stop seeing the flashy black convertible before her eyes.

"Oh my gawd, is this like yours?" Kitty admired circling the car.

"Yep, but let's talk about it on the way to school kay?" He answered opeing a door for Kitty.

"Never knew you were like such a gentleman" Kitty complicated getting in the car while Pietro did the same on the other side.
