He gazed at Rogue from afar. "why were they here again?" he thought, "Oh, yeah yet another effort from the X-geeks to show us how great they are and to "attempt" to show us the light and join them. How pathetic! But, hey since when has the Brotherhood refused going to a party? A: there's free food, pretty good too may I add; B: the X-geeks can be okay to hang with but even more fun to torture; C: well I cant think of a C right now."

The Brotherhood boys and Wanda were invited to yet another event at the Xavier's Institute for Gifted youngsters. The event: New Year's Eve/ Happy Holidays type of party.

"There trying to acknowledge the fact there is people out there that don't celebrate Christmas and what a better way to add more members to the team then to invite them over on holidays. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside." Gags

Pietro sat a good distantance from Rogue.

Pietro's POV

I just hope for once shed notice me….WHAT AM I SAYING!!??? I could have any girl in the whole school, heck the world, but yet I'm in love with the school's gothic bitch…

Pietro's voice of reason spoke up again: "Aww you know that's not true. She IS beautiful but she hides it with all those gothic clothes and makeup from Hot Topic, not like hot topic aint a good store, but you have to get past the looks Pietro, I kno this is all soo cheesy heck even stupid but shes both beautiful on the inside and out you just havnet found that out yet. Also, otherwise you'll never met a nice girl aka maybe even Rogue, and settle down, start a family…"

Pietro accidentally shouted out loud…. "STUPID VOICE! I'M HOW OLD? 17!! IM DEF. NOT THINKIN BOUT SETTLING DOWN RIGHT NOW! IM TOO BEAUTIFUL AND YOUNG!! WHATS WRONG WITH YOU? WHERE DO U HEAR ALL THIS BULLSHIT FROM??"

Just about everyone in the whole mansion was staring at Pietro with shocked expressions. Strange enough, Lance being the older helpful brother to the Brotherhood he walked up to Pietro and put his arm over his shoulder.

"Man, you know one day the voices in you head wont be there to help you out, or there'll give you the wrong advice and you'll do something stupid like break up with Kitty Kat then drink away the pain, and almost drive yourself over a cliff to just end the pain."

Lance was at the point of (yet another) breakdown. He had big fat tears rolling down his face and he was practically hyperventilating.

"Its gonna be okay Lance. Trust me I know it. Kitty has been starin at you all night. She wants to be with you as much as you do. So stop that cryin and go win her back! AND that's an order too."

Lance wiped away his tears with his long sleeved shirt

"Im sorry bout that Pietro. I was supposed to come over and help you with problems but instead you helped me. I owe you now. I cant believe I thought you were the one who was insane when I just had a mental breakdown, right here in front of all those X-geeks, you guys, and Kitty Kat; not cool. Well I better go find kitty. Cya later Pietro."

"Hmm…maybe I should use my own good advice towards Rogue." he whispered to himself. He let out a evil laugh just loud enough for a few of the Newer recruits to back away just abit, or 20 feet.
