Only the Lonely

Chapter 6: Sleepy Time and Girl Talk

By

The Uncanny R-Man

Disclaimer- I don't own anything, the X-Men, Meggan and Amanda belong to Marvel.

Shout Outs-

Agent-G- Pietro torture is always fun. I hope you like the sleepover, lots of embarrassing moments with people putting their foot in it. Well, it's mostly Jean actually.

Notes- I'm afraid that the chapter after this will be the last as I have noticed a lack of reviews. I thought that I might as well give it a satisfactory finish instead of just leaving it be. I'm not sure whether there will be a sequel, but don't get your hopes up.
Xavier's-

The X-Mansion was all a-buzz as the female students prepared for their upcoming sleepover. Meggan had even invited Amanda along. Kitty and Rogue weren't really sure if it was alright to have Kurt's ex-girlfriend along but the blonde metamorph convinced them otherwise.

Only the older students were invited along to the sleep over. It wasn't meant to be a snub towards the New Recruits; it was just that Meggan knew Kitty and the others better than the younger students.

It was decided that the sleepover would be held in the rec room, as that was where the TV was. Plus, it would have meant less fuss than if they held it in one of the bedrooms as then they would have had to moved lots of furniture about.

Rogue and Kitty were carrying armfuls of snacks from the kitchen. It wouldn't be a sleep over without the nibbles. Kitty was also carrying a six-pack of soda. She was going through another diet so instead of the regular sodas that the other girls were having, she ended up with sugar-free.

Meggan walked in with a load of DVDs in her hands.

'I couldn't really decide which movies to choose.' She said. 'So I just brought a load down.'

'Please say that you chose Finding Nemo!' Kitty said as she stole a handful of chips (low calorie chips, of course!)

'Certainly did.' Meggan replied as he placed said movie beside the DVD player. 'I got a load more too.'

'Ooh, have you got Bridget Jones in there?' Jena asked as she walked in with a load of sleeping bags.

'That too.' Meggan replied as she waved the case in the air. 'Nothing like a nice chick flick.'

Rogue just snorted in disgust.

'That film is a loada rubbish. It's unrealistic and dumb.'

'Why so bitter, Roguey?' Meggan asked. 'Don't tell me the Cajun's sniffing around you again.'

'You're lucky that ah like you so much.' Rogue muttered as she rolled out her sleeping bag. 'Just tell meh that you ain't only got films about talkin' fish and women with big underwear.'

'I got Pirate of the Caribbean as a last resort.' Meggan replied.

'Now that's more like it.' Rogue said as she nodded in appreciation.

'Don't tell me you're a closet Orlando fan.' Jean said as she laid down her bedding.

'Gawd no!' Rogue winced. 'Ah like Johnny Depp more than him!'

'I hear you girlfriend!' Meggan replied with a grin.

'Any idea when Amanda's coming?' Kitty asked.

'She said that she'd be here by eight.' Meggan replied as she looked at the clock. 'It's almost twenty-to, I'd better get ready.'

'Yeah, I'd better like, join you too.' Kitty added. 'I wanna bring Lockheed down as well.'

'Geez, the way she acts around that dragon, you'd think that it was alahve.' Rogue snickered.

'Hey!' Kitty yelled as she threw a cushion in Rogue's direction. Fortunately Jean caught it with her TK and put it back in its right place.

'You remember what the Professor said, nothing is to be broken.'

'Yes mother.' Meggan snickered as she left the room the get ready.

Later-

Amanda now joined the girls in the rec room. Everybody was dressed in their respective nightwear. Kitty was wearing an over-sized pink T-shirt and purple shorts while Rogue wore black satin pyjamas along with her gloves. Jean was wearing something similar, but red. Amanda was wearing a simple white vest top with grey drawstring pants while Meggan was wearing an oversized Shrek T-shirt, green shorts and fuzzy bunny slippers.

'It was really nice of you guys to invite me here.' Amanda said as she snagged a handful of popcorn. 'I know I'm not the most popular person here, after what I did to Kurt.'

'To tell yah the truth, ah was kinda pissed at the way yah ended it but who am ah tah moan, it's not lahke ah have experience with guys.'

'Apart form that cute Cajun guy.' Kitty replied. 'What's his name...? Remy?'

'Oh, you'd better watch it Kit.' Meggan giggled. 'Rogue's gonna get jealous.'

'Can we just watch the damn movie?' She sighed.

'I'm kinda fine just sitting here and ribbing you about your love life.' Meggan replied with a mischievous grin. 'But then again, the time has come to drool over Johnny Depp.'

'And Orlando.' Kitty added.

'Get a lahfe.' Rogue snickered. 'Orlando's a pansy!'

'But he like, looked sooo cute in Lord of the Rings.' Kitty replied.

'I kinda thought that the dwarf guy was cute.' Meggan added.

The other girls just fixed the metamorph with astounded stares.

'That is what we in England call a joke.' Meggan said with a lop-sided grin. 'You guys might want to try it some time.'

After the movie-

After the girls had had their fill of Johnny Depp wobbling about like a drunk and saying 'savvy' a lot, their conversation inevitably returned to the subject of guys.

'So Jean, how far have you and Scott gone?' Meggan asked with a knowing smile.

The redhead just blushed, her skin starting to match the colour of her hair.

'That's none of your business Meggan.' She managed to splutter. 'That is between Scott and myself.'

'Then what was that squeakin' ah heard comin' from your room the other naght?' Rogue asked with an evil grin.

'There was... a mouse.' Jean replied feebly.

'Only if it could like, speak.' Kitty replied with a giggle. 'I think it groaned Scott's name a few times.'

Jean just groaned out loud and held her head in her hands.

'Yeah, that was what ah heard.' Rogue snickered once more, revelling in Jean's ridicule.

Jean then decided to change the subject.

'Kitty, what about you and that British guy? Have you had sex yet?'

'Maybe...' Kitty replied coyly as she hugged her purple plushie dragon close.

'That's a no then.' Amanda said.

Kitty just sighed and shook her head.

'I want smoochies.' She muttered.

'You and me both.' Meggan said as she patted Kitty on the back in sympathy. 'Just not together. As cute as you are, I'm just not into other girls.'

'Okay, what if you were?' Jean asked. 'If you were... that way inclined, who would it be with?'

'Ororo.' Meggan replied simply.

'Oh really?' Rogue asked as she cocked a brow. 'And ah though yah said yah weren't lahke that.'

'I'm not.' Meggan replied. 'I just think that Ororo is a very attractive woman. Not that I think about it all that much. But if I was... like that...' Meggan trailed off as she saw the amused faces surrounding her. 'Let's just bloody well watch Bridget Jones, okay?'

One pair of rather big knickers later-

Meggan yawned sleepily as the end credits began to roll.

'Sleepy...' She mumbled. 'Too much soda.'

'Surely that would make you hyper.' Amanda replied. 'Y'know, all the caffeine and stuff?'

'The sea monkeys have my money...' Meggan murmured sleepily.

'Okay, she's out for the count.' Jean said. 'Lightweight.'

Then the redhead promptly collapsed forward unconscious, snoozing like a baby.

'Heh, sucker.' Meggan chuckled evilly. 'Nobody can defeat my nerve pinch!'

'Shaddup, people are tryin' tah sleep.' Rogue mumbled as she turned over in her sleeping bag.

'Don't make me whup yo' ass!' Meggan replied.

Rogue just threw a cushion in the blonde's direction.

'Grouchy much.' Meggan sniffed as she lay down in her sleeping bag.

TBC...

During a stormy night, Meggan seeks out Kurt for comfort. Surely I don't have to explain what happens next, do I?
