OoOoOoOo Chapter 11 OoOoOoOo
Thursday
"Hey…have you noticed some tension between Lex and Pie?" Jubilee asked Amara and Wanda as they walked down the school hallway.
"Yeah…what do you think would have caused it? They were fine last night," Amara answered. While both girls talked about the reasons that they might be like that, Wanda stayed quiet and wondered about it as well. Last night she had seen X-23 leave in a hurry, a while after she went to check on Pietro find him laying in bed just looking at the ceiling. She had asked him what was wrong but he didn't even looked at her or answered.
'Maybe…I was right…' she thought to herself as they made their way to the usual spot. When they got there they found John, Ray and Roberto already waiting their arrival.
"'Hey luv," John greeted her with a kiss.
"Hey," she answered looking slight dazed.
"Something wrong?" John asked her.
"NO…where's Remy? And Lex and Pie?"
"Remy disappeared I don't know where and I think your bro and X went off campus…why?"
"No reason…just thought it was weird they weren't here…" she answered slowly.
"By the way Luv…did you hear?"
"Hear what?"
"Crystal broke up with Danny…"
"WHAT?"
"Yeah…it's even rumored that she had been planning it since the weekend after they came back."
"Crap…does Pietro know?" she asked him.
"I don't think so…but you know how it is around here…nothing stay's a secret for more than an hour."
"When did you find out?"
"During 4th period."
"Crap crap crap…"
"What?" he asked. "Isn't this what we wanted?"
Wanda stayed quiet thinking about it. 'It was what they wanted…this was the goal…but then why do I feel like there's danger to this?'
"Yeah…it is…" she answered quietly and looked at Amara and Jubilee who were telling the guys to stop asking what they were going to wear the next night. She then stared on the opposite side of them where she saw three blondes; Emma on occasion would look up at her and glare.
'WTF…hmm…' "John…has Emma tried talking to you?" Wanda asked her boyfriend.
"No…why?" he asked.
"Never…mind…" she answered and thought, 'What are you planning' while looking at the golden locks of hair. Things felt…so wrong…
OoOoOoOo Gothic Alley OoOoOoOo
Rogue smiled at Betts who was talking full speed about the movie 'Saw', she had watched it about three times with Warren and she couldn't help spoiling it for the others. She then looked at Lance who seemed lost in his thoughts, she got up ignoring Betts and walked over to him.
"What's up with yah?" she asked.
"Nothing…can I ask you something?" Lance asked.
"You've never asked to ask…what is it?"
"I feel…like…your keeping something from us…" Lance answered hesitating a bit.
Rogue looked at him without saying anything for a while, then she asked, "What makes yah think that?"
"The fact that we're best friends…I can kinda just feel it…then you're never home nowadays so you don't hang with us a lot of after school…and also…that…" he finished and tilted his head to the side.
/I could lose my heart tonight/
Rogue looked to where his head was pointing and her eyes widened a bit in surprise as she watched Remy Lebeau walk towards them.
"You've got something to tell us?" Lance asked watching as the 'prep' got closer.
"Ah…don't know…ask meh again in five minutes," she answered and walked towards the Cajun.
/If you don't turn and walk away/
They reached each other after a couple of steps, "Is somethang wrong?" Rogue asked wondering why the handsome boy was talking to her at school.
"Non…" he answered.
She looked around and noticed that a lot of people had in fact noticed this weird event. "Then why are yah…" before she could finish he interrupted her with something that surprised her beyond belief…he kissed her.
/'Cause the way I feel I might Lose control and let you stay/
By now Betts has finished talking and was looking at her fellow Goth…who had her lips pressed to someone who was way opposite of them.
"Am I seeing what I think I'm seeing?" Betts asked Tabitha.
"I don't know…some one pinch me and I'll tell you…" as she finished Bobby pinched her making her howl in pain.
"What? You told me too…" he told her making her glare at him. Lance watched stoically, he knew Rogue well…so he wasn't surprised about it…after all they were a lot a like. Didn't they both fall for people they shouldn't have? As he thought about that question his mind drifted to a certain brown haired geek…'His' geek.
Amanda looked at Rogue and smiled, "All for Lexa huh? That liar…" she mumbled to herself.
Remy pulled away from the kiss and noticed a blush from the southern Goth even with all that makeup.
Rogue opened her eyes and glared at the people who were now staring at them as if she was an alien.
"What was that fohr?" she asked with difficulty.
"Nothing really…Remy jus…I wanted to know…if…maybe you wanted to go to the dance avec moi tomorrow night," he answered nervously.
Rogue blinked a couple of times, "And…yah couldn't ask meh this later?"
"I…was just tired…" he answered making her get a puzzled look.
"Tired of what?"
"Of 'aving dis feelings and not having y' nor anyone else know about 'em…"
Rogue was still blushing much to her annoyance.
/'Cause I could take you in my arms/
"So…what Y' say chere?" he asked.
"Uh...ah…" Rogue stuttered still a little shocked, after a minute of absolute silence she smiled and answered, "Ah'd…love tah…"
Remy smiled and then grabbed her hand, he gave it a little kiss, "We'll talk later den…"
/And never let go/
"Yeah…" she answered and the watched him go. She then turned and walked back to Lance who had hid eyed closed, he slowly opened the as she got near. Betts and the others were staring at her their jaws hitting the floor.
"So…you gonna explain luv?" Betts asked.
Rogue looked at her surprised and asked, "Explain what?" Lance smirked at her and shook his head; they both then got quiet and enjoyed each other's company.
OoOoOoOo McDonalds OoOoOoOo
Lexa and Pietro sat across from each other in the small two-sitter booth. Pietro was stirring his McFlurry while looking very thoughtful. Lexa was putting fries into her mouth loving the taste of the skinny salt substance. She was also deep in thought…
/I could fall in love with you/
Things had gotten very quiet since last night, she thought they should talk about it…but he wouldn't bring the subject up…and neither would she.
/I could fall in love with you/
Finally getting tired of their dazes and tension she said, "It was payback…" Pietro broke out of the trance he was in and looked at her curiously not getting what she meant.
"What?"
"Last week…at John's party…you kissed ME…you stole my first actual kiss…and…last night I…stole one from you…even if it…wasn't your first," she told him stuttering and blushing.
/I could only wonder how/
Pietro stared at her thinking that was the stupidest excuse he's ever heard, but against his own will he smirked and laughed. She stared at him wondering if she should be insulted by his laughing, after a couple of seconds of staring she went ahead and joined him. The people around them stared at them as they laughed thinking they were metal. When they finally stopped they took deep breaths…the tension had left…for now.
/Touching you would make me feel/
"You are weird…you know that?" Pietro asked her.
"I've been told but I don't really listen," she answered smirking. He shook his head and sneakily his hand traveled over to…her…FRIES!!! Lexa caught on to this and as he was about to get one she smacked his hand.
"OOWWW…what was that for?" he asked pulling his hand back and rubbing it where she hit him.
"That was for trying to take my food," she answered smirking.
"I was trying to help you…"
"With what?"
"Well…you know…eating fast food everyday isn't good…" he told her looking away playfully.
Lexa's mouth opened, "Are you…trying to tell me you think I've gained weight?" she asked her eyes narrowing at him.
"Oh of course not," he answered innocently. Lexa's mouth was still opened; she then smirked and kicked him under the table and the hit made contact with his knee.
"Owa…" he yelled and rubbed his knee. "I never knew you were this aggressive," he told her smirking. Lexa looked at his smirk and shook her head getting the double meaning.
"You are so…"
/But if I take that chance right now/
"Charming…hot…smart…gorgeous…sly…sweet…" he interrupted her giving her suggestions.
She smiled, "Annoying…"
"Ouch…that one hurt," he told her with a fake pout.
"Whatever…" she told him and watched as his hand started making it's way back to her side of the table. She eyed it and got ready to smack it but was surprised that instead of going for a French fry he got a hold of her hand, he slowly brought t p to his face and gave her knuckles a soft kiss making her confuse.
"Aww…remember when we were like that?" was the next thing Lex and Pietro heard before Lexa could say anything. Both turned sideways to find an old couple staring at them. Lexa blushed as the two elders started at them. Pietro looked at them but the started getting up.
"Come on…or else we'll be late for the rest of the periods." Lexa nodded and got up, Pietro walked out first as she threw away her trash. As she walked out the door she heard the old woman say…
/Tomorrow will you want me still?/
"Young love…" making her cheeks burn hotter then they already were. Lexa caught up to Pietro and the then got into his car and sped towards school.
About seven minutes later they arrived and right on time since the bell rang. Lexa started walking towards her classroom and was surprised to see Pietro was following.
"Where are you going?" she asked him. "Isn't your class all across campus?"
"Yeah but I thought I'd walk you," he answered shrugging. Lexa looked at him curiously but then just smiled. She then for the first time grabbed his hand instead of having him grab hers. Pietro looked down at their hands and then at her. She smiled making him smile not knowing the reason.
"Well…here we are," Lex told him stopping in front of the door to her classroom.
"Yeah…" Pietro replied and looked at the door and then looked down at Lex who was standing in front of him. He then leaned down as her head rose and they gave each other a couple of sloppy tongues kisses before taking full domination inside of each others mouth. Some people stopped to stare, others ignored it having seen it for a week, and some girls stared enviously at X-23.
/So I should keep this to myself/
They parted both with misty looks in their eyes, "Guess…I'll see you after school…" Pietro told her. Lexa slowly nodded her head her eyes slowly opening making it seem like she was either high…or sleepy. Pietro smirked at her making her smile and he then turned and bumped into someone.
Lexa turned to the person and found Crystal staring up at Pietro.
"Hey Pie," she greeted huskily.
"Oh…hey Crystal," he answered. Crystal opened her mouth to say something but Lexa got in between then and got kissed Pietro on the cheek.
"You better go before you're late," she told him.
/And never let you know/
"Oh yeah…" he answered and gave her a peck on the lips then turned and walked away without giving Crystal another look. Lexa watched him and then turned to go inside her classroom when and icy hand gripped her wrist.
She turned and faced Crystal, "Pietro was mine…and he will be mine again," she told her in a low whisper.
"Really? Well I don't see your name on him," Lexa snapped back getting her hand free.
"It's somewhere you haven't been," Crystal answered cockily.
"And where would that be? Cause I've seen everything and I'm sorry to tell you I haven't seen shit on him," Lexa countered making Crystal growl in frustration and then stomp off. 'Good riddance…I just hope she doesn't find out I was lying' Lexa thought to herself and then walked into her English class.
OoOoOoOo After School OoOoOoOo
Pietro was inside his car waiting for Lexa, his mind deep in thoughts…about Crystal. He had heard…that she had broken up with Danny…the plan had worked…but for some odd reason he wasn't jumping for joy like he should have.
His thoughts were interrupted as the passenger door opened and Lexa peered in before getting on. They remained quiet until she said…
"You've heard…"
"Yeah…" he answered quietly.
/I could fall in love with you/
The tension was so thick they could have cut through it; both just sat and stayed quiet as they stared out the window in front of them they.
"What now?" she asked him quietly.
"I…um…have to go get my Tux for tomorrow," he answered making her turn to look at him. 'He's…still gonna go with me?' she thought to herself. 'Why…our mission is accomplished…we got what we wanted…right?'
/I could fall in love with you/
"Do you wanna come with me or drop you off at your house?" he broke her train of thought.
"Um…I'll go with you," she answered slowly.
"You sure? I got mine a couple of towns away…it might take a while," he told her.
"It's fine…" she answered and he started the car and took off.
/And I know it's not right/
OoOoOoOo Hours later Lensher House Hold OoOoOoOo
"Hey whereas Pietro and X?" Amara asked as the girls were in the kitchen getting snacks ready since they were ready to watch a movie.
"I'm guessing to get Pietro's outfit for tomorrow…he always waits till the last minute," Wanda answered all of a sudden seeing Crystal and Pietro in her head, she shuddered and continued on putting the popcorn in the microwave.
"What movie are we watching?" Rogue asked as she walked into the kitchen.
"Oh hey Rogue…when did you get here?" Amara greeted and asked.
"Couple seconds ago…"
"Oh ho ho…we heard about you and Remy," Jubilee told her and winked. Rogue ignored her and looked around at them.
"I think we're watching Van Helsing…or is it White Chicks…" Amara answered Rogue's first question.
"Hey I thought we were going to watch Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban?" Jubilee asked.
"We watched that the day before yesterday," Amara replied.
"So? It's a good movie," Jubilee whined.
Amara rolled her eyes at her and said; "You only want to watch it cause you like seeing Ron and Hermione hold hands and hug…"
"What's wrong with that?" Jubilee answered smiling. Rogue ignored the rest of their conversation and walked to Wanda.
"What's wrong with yah?" she asked her friend.
"Nothing…i'm just wondering what'll happen now that Crystal and Danny broke it off…"
/And I guess I should try to do what I should do/
"Isn't it obvious?" Rogue asked.
"Not really…this is what they wanted it…but is it still what they want?" Wanda asked making everyone stay quiet and think.
Jubilee broke the silence by singing, "There maybe something there that wasn't there before."
All of them turned to stare at her, "Did you just quote 'Beauty and the Beast?'" Amara asked her best friend smiling.
Jubilee smirked and walked out singing the phrase again; Amara shook her head and followed her carrying the drinks.
Rogue looked at Wanda, "We can see what's going on as easily as blinking…now it's time fohr them tah figure out what's going on…whatever happens next…is up tah them…" she told her.
/But I could fall in love/
Wanda nodded, "Yeah…I know…" they both then got the popcorn and chips and headed back to the living room where they heard the beginning of the movie they were gonna watch.
Wanda groaned as she recognized it, "Harry Potter?"
John, Remy, and Roberto were on the floor while Jubilee sat on Ray's lap on the couch. Amara was shaking her head at the three guys on the floor.
"What happened?" Wanda asked her.
"Nothing…but when it comes to what Jubilee wants, Ray can be very persuasive" she answered. Making Rogue and Wanda smirk at the fact that Ray had somehow beaten their men just so Jubilee could watch her movie.
OoOoOoOo Later that Night OoOoOoOo
/Fall in love with you/
Pietro rubbed his eyes as he kept driving, once in a while he would look at the sleeping girl next to him. They had gone for his Tuxes about 5 cities away but he hadn't bought it…why you may ask…well…
OoOoOoOo Flashback OoOoOoOo
"Well how do I look?" Pietro asked modeling his outfit. Lexa stared at him for a couple of seconds and then…she laughed.
/I could fall in love with you/
"You…look…like…a…PENGUIN!" she told him wiping tears of laughter that were in the corner of her eyes. Pietro frowned and went to change.
OoOoOoOo End Flashback OoOoOoOo
/So I should keep this to myself/
Pietro sighed but smiled. Instead of getting the tux he had picked fancy black pants and a matching jacket. As he thought about what he was gonna wear his mind drifted to Crystal…she was single again…this was what this was all about.
/And never let you know/
But he couldn't help asking himself 'What should I do?' he thought this was a stupid question though. He knew what he should do, get with Crystal…but something was stopping…he just wasn't sure what that was.
/I could fall in love with you/
He stopped the car when he noticed he was home. He then turned to Lexa and felt bad that he was gonna have to wake her up since she looked very pretty sleeping.
/I could fall in love with you/
'WTF am I thinking?' Pietro asked himself and slowly nudged her to get her up. Lexa looked up as her eyes opened and found herself looking into Pietro's sapphire orbs.
"Where are we?" she asked in a raspy voice.
"Home," he answered while she looked around.
"Oh…is it late?"
"It's 12," he answered making her eyes snap open and getting all the sleepiness go away.
"WHAT?"
"It's…12..."
"Oh shit…my daddy's gonna kill me…" she mumbled and got out of the car. Seconds later she found herself in front of him getting ready to walk over to her house.
"You want me to tell your parents it's all my fault?" he offered not wanting her to get in trouble.
Lexa smiled, "Nah…my dad already has a bit of dislike towards you so I don't think we should increase it."
He nodded, "Probably right about that…'
'Yeah…"
/I could fall in love/
She looked up at him and suddenly felt her sleepiness come back as he eyes closed and her head leaned up. Pietro's eyes also closed and he found his head moving down, as they were about to make contact they heard…
"LEXA HOWLETT GET YOUR ASS IN THIS HOUSE NOW!!!!" Lexa opened her eyes, as did Pietro.
/I could fall in love/
She smiled and said, "I got to go…goodnight…"
"Night…" he answered and watched her leave.
'What is going on with me?' was a question on both their heads as the image of each others face flashed in their minds.
/With you…/
OoOoOoOo Friday OoOoOoOo
Crystal smiled softly as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. Emma, Belle and herself where in the restroom and it was lunch, her other two blond friends weren't smiling.
"Come on guys…cheer up…they were ours once and they will be ours again," Crystal told them.
"I don't know Crystal…I knew that there was something going on between John and Wanda before I even met her. The way he would say her name and talk about her…" Emma answered glaring at the wall as she remembered.
Belle stayed quiet lost in her thoughts, "What's wrong with you?" Crystal asked her.
"Mercy isn't talking ta me…" she answered her eyes darkening.
"Isn't she the girlfriend of Remy's brother?"
"Yeah…"
"Why isn't she talking to you?"
"Because I tried getting info about Remy and that bitch out of her, she asked why and I didn't answer so she went to Remy who told her to stop talkin ta me," she answered grumpily.
"Why are you so happy?" Emma asked Crystal wondering why she was the only one with a smile on her face.
"Because tonight's the dance…"
"So?"
"So don't you see? This is the opportunity that we're waiting for…you want them back…then go after them tonight."
Emma finally understood and smirked, while Belle looked up and thought about it.
"I…could get him back?" she thought out loud.
"If you try," Crystal answered.
Belle then also smiled and shared a look with Emma, "Then…tonight it will be…" she mused and the three smiled evilly at each other.
OoOoOoOo after school OoOoOoOo
The Girls
"Why are we here so early?" Lex asked as all the girl walked into Wanda's room in a hurry and started getting things ready.
"You haven't been to a dance before huh?" Jubilee asked smirking.
"No…" (Rogue)
"Not really (Lex)
"You have a lot to learn," Amara told them while plugging in a hair straightner and then a curling iron.
Lexa looked at little scared at all the things they were taking out while Rogue also looked at all the things wearily. 'It's just like the makeover' Lex thought remembering day when Rogue and Wanda had died her hair.
"Don't look so scared," Wanda teased as she looked over at them and then went into her closet.
"Ok…everything ready," Jubilee told them grinning.
"We should go home though," Amara told them while making sure the curling iron was on.
"Fohr what?"
"To get our outfits," Wanda told her.
"Wait…we're getting ready for the dance…now?" Lexa asked looking at them and then at the clock that told them there was still 5 hours till the dance even started.
"Like I've said…you have a lot to learn," Amara repeated smiling at her.
"Come on," Jubilee said linking arms with Lex and dragging her down towards the car.
Wanda and Rogue were the last to walk out of the room.
"Are yah gonna leave those on?" Rogue asked looking at the straightner and curling iron.
Wanda looked at them and shrugged, "Yeah…" Rogue gave her a look and she added, "If we leave them on now they'll be ready by the time we come back.
"Oh…" Rogue answered understanding.
"Do you know what you're wearing?" Wanda asked her.
"Yeah," Rogue answered.
"Is it at your house or Lex's?"
"Mahn…"
"K…then we'll head there first…" Wanda answered and walked outside where the other girls were already waiting.
"Hmmm…maybe tonight won't be as beautiful as it should," Jubilee mused making everyone stare at her.
"What makes you say that?" Lex asked.
Jubilee pointed up at the sky, "It looks like rain…" she mumbled as the sky did a low rumble like lightening.
"Lets hope you're wrong," Amara told her, "I don't feel like getting wet…" she added and they all got in the car and drove towards Rogues.
OoOoOoOo 5 Hours later OoOoOoOo
The Guys
"Ha…I got you now Mate," John yelled triumphantly.
"D'esole homme mais Remy don tink som" Remy answered.
"Can't you guys see I'm the one who's' winning?" Roberto asked the other while rolling his eyes.
"Not anymore you're not," Ray yelled as he stabbed Roberto's character. Pietro was walking around behind them ignoring them as they played on the X-Box. While he walked he looked down at his feet and pants to make sure he looked good. The other guys were wearing almost the same thing he was but theirs were either darker or lighter shades of black or blue.
They were at John's house since the girls were using his house as a huge dressing room. He sighed and walked to the window that was facing the house next door. As he looked outside he noticed the dark clouds that were in the sky, 'it's gonna rain' he told himself and smiled at the thought.
He liked the rain, the smell it brought with it, and he also liked the feel of the wet drops on him. Rain calmed him…Pietro took a deep breath and then looked at the clock on top of the TV.
"Oh…shit," he mumbled out loud.
"What?" Roberto asked.
"Wait for it…"
"Wait for what?" Ray asked and right after that all the guys cell phones started ringing.
"Whoa…freaky," John muttered.
"Y' can say that again."
"Whoa…"
"Shud up John," Remy answered rolling his eyes.
"But you said…"
Roberto ignored them and started turning his phone on…while Pietro went 'NOOOOOOO' in the background.
"Hello?" Roberto answered and then quickly pulled his phone away from his ears. Amara's voice was plainly heard; the other guys looked at their phones nervously and started getting up.
"Tell dem we're on de way," Remy told Roberto and almost ran outside.
"What? Why me?"
"Cause stupid you answered," Pietro answered and walked after Remy alongside with John. Ray shook his head and then left Roberto alone with the fuming Amara still on the phone.
Less than 3 minutes later they got to the house and opened it only to find the living room empty.
Pietro rolled his eyes and yelled, "We thought you were done…"
"We were until you guys were taking forever just to get here," came Wanda's response.
"But luv…we're late to the dance."
"And whose fault is that?" came the distant response.
The guys groaned but before any of them could answer a soft voice did.
"It would be yours," she replied making Roberto snap his head up at her. He blinked as he looked at her and then smiled.
"Hey…" he greeted slowly while checking her out.
"Hey," Amara answered and walked up to him. She was wearing a tight white dress that went a little below her knees, it had long sleeves that were very tight around the arms but when it came up to the wrists it was loose. Roberto couldn't find anything to say, all he could do was look at her, he however got snapped out of that daze by giggling.
"What do you know…you did leave him speechless," Jubilee mused as she started at her best friend and her boyfriend. Ray smiled and walked over to her.
'You look great," he murmured as he kissed her cheek.
"Thanks" she answered shyly as he looked at her up and down. She was wearing a yellow dress that went down to her feet, the straps that were on her shoulders were pretty thick, on her chest area there was a diagonal slit but it didn't really show anything. There were also diagonal slits on her bellybutton area showing her pierced bellybutton.
"About damn time," Wanda snapped walking down the stairs followed by Rogue, John and Remy looked dreamily at them as they walked down.
"What took yah so long?" Rogue asked while Wanda also looked at them for a response.
The two boys just stared at them lost of words.
"Hello?" Wanda asked snapping her fingers in front of John's face.
"Anyone home?" Rogue asked as she waved her hand in Remy's face.
"Uh…yeah…" John answered not even knowing what they had asked.
"Chere…you look…tres…bon" Remy answered. Rogue was wearing a green dress that went down to her feet, the straps were thin and the dress had a deep v-neck to it. Wanda was wearing a dress that went above her knees, and had a lace design going around her chest area. Her hair was very straight and gracing her shoulders.
Pietro looked at his best friends and how they were goggling at Rogue and his sister. Really…'those boys are WHIPPED' he thought to himself and kept his eyes on them but his mind wandered off. Most of that whole day he was wondering what to do…the pretending game should have been over yesterday…but there he was waiting for X-23. As he thought about this his mind went to dark blue eyes and pretty golden locks of hair.
'Crystal' he thought…did he still want her? Of course…after all…wasn't this all for her?
"Ahem…" Pietro snapped out of his thoughts and turned around to where the voice had come from only to look down into pretty ice blue eyes. His eyes widened as he looked at what Lexa was wearing, it was a back dress that really looked more like a skirt and shirt. The bottom half went down to her knees and on the right was a big slit that went up to her knee, the top was looked as if it was separated because it wrapped around her waist and connected to the skirt behind her but lest a lot of stomach showing.
"Well?" she asked as she looked up at his face.
"Uh…you…um…you look…beautiful," he whispered making it so only she could hear.
Lexa blushed, "Thanks…but in a way I guess you should be thanking your sister cause she's the one that suggested I buy it. She said you'd like it and that it really showed my figure."
"She wasn't lying," he responded.
She kept her blush and looked down at her back heels finding them very interesting all of a sudden.
"Hey guys we should go before it gets any later," Jubilee told everyone snapping them out of whatever their conversation was about.
"Oh…yeah. Come one we're taking my car," Pietro told her and watched as she went and took his black jacket and put it over her good-looking figure. She then walked back to him and without hesitation grabbed his arm and held it close to her. Pietro looked at her and smiled then they walked outside side by side.
"Aww," Jubilee giggled softly and Ray held her hand.
"If someone was going to tell me we would see them like that on the first day we went to the mall I would call them big fat liars," Amara commented as everyone watched them leave.
Wanda stared with a smiled but it disappeared as she shivered. "You cold luv?" John asked her and she shook her head.
"Then what is it?" he asked, before she could answer Rogue beat her to it.
"Something doesn't feel right…"
The people who were still there stared at them curiously before walking outside to leave.
OoOoOoOo 1 Hour later OoOoOoOo
The Dance
Rogue and Remy where sitting down at a table talking to Lance, Kitty, Betts and Warren. They moved their heads to the music but the guys refused to dance a lot. When they did that the girls just rolled their eyes and thought, 'Men'.
On the dance floor were, Amara, Roberto, Jubes, Ray, Lex and Pie getting their groove on to the music and getting a little to dirty then the principle appreciated.
Wanda and John had gone to get drinks and soon went back to where Rogue and Remy where. They all talked about nothing really important but things they could all relate to even though they were from different groups. They all got quiet after a while and soon Jessica's Simpson 'Take My Breath Away' came on.
That's when Rogue noticed Belladonna was making her way towards them, she watched her until she stopped right in front of the table and looked at Remy.
""Ey Remy…wanna dance?" she asked huskily while sitting on the table making sure he's get to see how much thigh the dress she was wearing showed.
Remy stared at her from head to toe and then got up, Belle smirked at Rogue with devilish eyes which disappeared as Remy answered, "Non…mais…I would like a dance wit de fillie dat does take my breath away," and with that said he put his palm out in front of Rogue wanting to dance.
Rogue looked at his hand expressionless but then went ahead and took it letting him help her up. Not even giving Belladonna another look he held Rogue from the waist and took her to the center of the floor. When they stopped Remy put both his hands on her waist as she put her hands around his neck.
"Y' wanna know somting chere?" he whispered softly to her.
"What?" she answered.
"Y' really do take mon breath away…" he whispered into her ear, she blushed and then moved her head to rest on his shoulder not wanting to stare deep into his captivating eyes which started at her with such intensity.
Belle watched them with a glare as she still sat on the table, she them turned to Wanda and John who were smirking with a perked eyebrow mocking her. With a growl she got up and ran over to where she was sitting.
John shook his head, "What is it with them and trying to get us back tonight?" he asked remembering that while they had gone to get the drinks Emma had shown up from no where and started dragging him to the dance floor while John shouted a loud No and then called for Wanda.
"Don't know but hopefully some have learned their lesson," she answered with a smirk and wondered if Emma's eye was getting bruised thanks to that nice little fist that met it.
John looked at his smirking girlfriend knowing what she was remembering and kissed her cheek with a butterfly kiss and then moved down towards her neck.
"Remind me NEVER to get you so mad that you wanna punch me…cause I've seen you do it…and it's not pretty."
Wanda smirked and looked into his eyes, "Well don't piss me off…cause I won't give you a warning."
"Ouch…I'll just remind myself."
"Good Idea," she answered smirking.
Yards away from that couple were Pietro and Lex who had no stopped dancing cause they were a bit tired from the non-stop dancing.
"So…what do you think of this?" he asked knowing it was the first time she attended at school dance.
"Not bad really…everyone's moving a lot."
"Well duh," he teased, "It's a dance…what's the point of coming if your not gonna get up and shake what you got."
"What if we don't have anything to shake?"
"I know you're not talking about yourself," he replied.
"What's that suppose to mean?" she asked with a smirk and perked eyebrow.
"You…know…it means…that…you have things to shake," he answered not sure why it had been so hard to tell her that. She smiled at the fact that he had just admitted that he had checked her out, making her wonder just how many times he might have done it. Jessica's Simpson's song with off and the tune to another slow song went on.
"This is for all you love birds," the DJ announced as Aaliyah's 'One in a Million' went on.
/Baby you don't know, what you do to me.
Between me and you, I feel a chemistry./
"You wanna dance?" Pietro turned to Lexa and asked.
Lex looked at him a little surprise, "Yeah…" she answered quietly as both walked back to the middle of the dancing floor. He slowly put his hand around her waits as she rested her arms around her shoulders, after they both looked at each other's eyes. Lex blushed for no specific reason, she just felt very shy all of a sudden.
/See no one else love me like you do.
That's why I want to spend my life with you./
She then thought that the reason she might have been feeling a little nervous and shy was because this was their first time they danced to a slow love song. Yeah they've danced to songs with slow beat like 'superman' and 'take me home' among others but all of those were sex related. This was the first song they've danced to that was about…love, and she couldn't explain why but she felt like it was so right.
/Your love is a one in a million it goes on and on and on you give me a really good feelin all day long./
She blushed as she thought this and then she decided to start ranting inside her head. 'I can't think about him like this…or however it is I'm thinking about him. This is Pietro…someone's who's been mean to me for about half my life…he's a stupid conceited ass REMEMBER? Yes I do remember…but why is heart beating so fast…and while do I feel tingly at his touch…why…am I addicted to the touch of his lips…'
/Turn me inside out make my heart speak.
Don't want nobody else you are all I need./
As Pietro looked at Lexa's eyes he so they were sort of misty, as if they were off somewhere else. He smiled at the look thinking she looked pretty cute…but then again, nowadays he found himself thinking that about her every single day. Whether she was wearing something as sexy as she was wearing now or whether she was wearing baggy pants with an oversized shirt. She somehow made everything she wore look good…making him realize that she had even looked good as her days as a geek. Yeah she had the glasses and the braces but…the geek personality was still there unless they were in a crowd of people that didn't know about their plan.
/Personality in everything you do
Makes me love everything bout you./
She acted like she was something she wasn't on the outside but in her heart she was still that geeky girl he had loved to piss of. Even with their pretending and spending time together making them grow closer, sometimes they still fought and annoyed each other to no end. He smiled down at her…there was something about her…
/Your smile your style so fly I can't deny I got a crush on you and that's true indeed./
Lexa got herself out of her thoughts and blinked a couple of times to then saw Pietro smiling down at her with a gentle smile. 'He has a nice smile' she thought to herself and then found herself adding, 'and nice hair…and a nice body…and beautiful eyes…and a…sweet personality…the things you miss when you judge a book by it's cover…' as she thought these things her eyes closed and she knew the feeling she was getting was familiar, she didn't know how familiar thought until she felt the soft familiar lips that belonged to Pietro.
"I'm gonna like get cavities with all their sweetness," Kitty commented as everyone except Amara, Roberto, Ray and Jubilee who were dancing watched.
Wanda smirked, "They make it so obvious," she commented while Kitty and gave a sigh and goofy smile at her friend.
"They make it obvious…but thay are still blind," Rogue commented not whether she should smile at her sister or frown at the fact that Crystal was one person who was also watching them.
"You think so? If they haven't seen it by now they ARE blind," Betts commented as she held Warrens hand.
"Well…Lex did wear glasses," he commented making Betts smile and give him a kiss in the nose.
"Like come on Lance," kitty said getting up and then dragging the brown haired cutie to the dance floor as the song ended.
Lexa and Pietro pulled away.
"You know…tonight has been…lots of fun," Pietro told her softly.
"Yeah…" she answered and thought, 'almost magical'. "You wanna keep on dancing?" she asked him.
"Sure…"
"Alright but I'm gonna go get something to drink…you wanna come?"
"Nah, I'll just wait for you here," he answered smiling.
"K…do you want anything?" she asked before she left.
"Not really," he answered and then watched her go until she disappeared hoping she'd come back soon.
After about 2 minutes he felt someone hug him from behind to smirk at Lexa but instead of finding Lex he found Crystal.
"Hey Pie Pie," she greeted seductively.
"Hey…Crystal," he answered.
"Dance with me?" she asked not waiting for a reply as she held on to him and started swaying to 'I'm Still In Love' by Sean Paul.
/I'm still in love with you boy…/
"So how have you been?" she asked trying to get the grip she had on him a bit loosened up.
"Ok…I guess…but you know…a little lonely now that I'm SINGLE…"
"Oh yeah…sorry to hear about that…"
"Really…"
"Uh…ya…you know…cause you're a special person…friend and stuff," he answered.
She smiled mischievously at him, "Pietro…I have something to tell you…"
"Uh…what?" he asked looking around once in a while looking for his 'date'.
"I broke up with Danny…cause…I want you back…"
/I'm still in love with you boy…/
Pietro looked down at her face with a perked eyebrow, before he could say anything she continued.
"And I know you Pie…so I know that that thing you have with that stupid geek is just to spite me but know guess what? You don't have to do it anymore cause…I'm all yours…again…"
"Crys…" before Pietro could talk Crystal pulled his head down and stuck her tongue into his mouth kissing him roughly like old times. A part of Pietro told him this was wrong and that he should stop it, but another part of him was enjoying the old feeling of Crystal in his arms…that side won as he started to reply. After a couple of minutes they broke up breathless, Crystal smiled at him and then turned her head to the side. Pietro watched her and then did the same thing…the last thing he saw as he did was blue hair…running out of the gym.
/Blessings loving from the start but you know we had to part/
OoOoOoOo seconds/minutes later OoOoOoOo
Rogue walked outside the gym at a quick pace and looked around for any sight of Lexa. She found none but she did find that it was sprinkling and the wet drops were getting heavier by the minute. Remy's footsteps then were heard and she heard him stop behind her, she started walking forwards.
"Chere…where Y' goin?"
"After her…"
"What about de dance?"
"FUCK The dance!!!" she nearly yelled but then calmed down as she looked at Remy's face. "Gawd…this is all mah fault…ah should have stopped her from ever making that stupid deal…grrr…ah got involved to make sure she didn't get hurt…but ah failed."
"Don blame Y'self chere…Kurt warned us all dat something like dis might happen…"
"But ah was tah stupid tah listen tah him…"
"Don worry bout it chere…come on lets go in and tink bout this…"
"No! Yah go…but ah'm gonna look fohr her."
"Chere…"
"No…this," she started and pointed at the decorated gym. "Isn't mah place…and it wasn't hers eitha," as she said that she took of the coat she was wearing which was Remy's and started walking away at a fast pace hoping to find Lex before the rain got to bad.
Remy watched her go; with a sigh he took one last look at her and went back inside.
/But a man gotta do what a man gotta doo…/
OoOoOoOo seconds/minutes later OoOoOoOo
Wanda walked outside and hugged herself as the cold rain poured over her. John walked behind her and hugged her as she sadly looked around but didn't find Lex or Rogue.
"You're gonna catch a cold," John mumbled to her worriedly.
"I don't care…" she answered as the rain started falling harder on them.
"Fine…but I'm not gonna let you get a cold alone," he answered and held on to her tighter as his feet stood firmly on the floor.
/I don't know why/
Seconds later they heard footsteps approach but didn't turn around to look at the person.
Pietro stared out at the empty campus…somewhere out there was X-23. In Pietro's hands was his jacket, the jacket she had worn, the jacket she didn't have on as it poured. He held it tighter between is hands making them go white and then looked at Wanda and John who hadn't said anything to him, and he felt Wanda wouldn't be saying anything to him for a while.
He sighed and looked back at the vacant school, then he looked up at the sky letting raindrops fall unto his face. He loved the rain…but at the moment it was only making him worried and…nauseous.
/I love you baby/
Rogue hugged herself as her dress started getting soaked. 'Maybe giving Remy his jacket was a bad idea…' she thought to herself as she blinked raindrops out of her eyes. After walking for a bit more she stopped giving up. 'Who knows where Lex is by now…'
She stood still and closed her eyes, she even stopped caring about that fact she was getting soaked to the bone. After a couple of minutes she started to notice that she was no longer getting wet but the sounds of the raindrops hitting the pavement was still loud. She opened her green eyes and noticed that she wasn't getting wet; when she looked up she noticed a black umbrella over her head.
"Tis a shame to be getting such a belle dress wet mon amour…"
Rogue turned and faced Remy, she then ran right into him as she hugged him and buried her face in his chest. He hugged her back with his unoccupied arm and then heard her mumble.
"It's all my fault…"
"Shhh…" he told her and lifted her head up by putting a finger under her chin. "It ain't Yo fault chere…sometings are jus meant to 'appen…to make others see tings dhey be blinded to."
She looked up at him not knowing whether she should listen or go back to blaming herself. As if reading her mind Remy bent his head and gave her a gentle butterfly kiss on the lips which turned into more, making her forget all about who to blame.
OoOoOoOo Lexa OoOoOoOo
/I don't know why/
She didn't know where she was…and she didn't really care. All she knew is she had run until her feet got tired and now she was here, in front of a large brick house sitting on the cold wet steps.
Why she had run…she didn't know. Why had she felt devastated as she watched her 'date' kiss Crystal she also did not know.
'I'm not suppose to feel this way…why did I run…why did it hurt me? After all this is what we wanted…we wanted to get them back and it worked. He's with her…but if this is true…then why do I feel like the day Danny made pretend he didn't know me? It feels like that day…but…10 times more painful,' she told herself and held herself tight as she fought the tears that wanted to fall out of her eyes.
/I don't know why/
She stayed still and without thinking anything, until suddenly her head snapped up in realization.
She looked up at the dark sky, 'I…feel this was…because…'
"I…love…him" as she admitted it out loud to herself with a shock expression she let the raindrops hit her face mingling with the tears running down her cheek.
/I'm still in love…/
