Quote of the day- 'My urination just hasn't been public enough lately.'- Cordelia (Angel: Rm W/a Vu)

'C'mon Wanda wake up!'

Wanda Maximoff, aka the Scarlet Witch is rudely awoken by someone shaking her. She mumbles something explicit and turns on her side.

'C'mon! Wake up! Do you know what day it is?'

Wanda mutters more curses and waves her hand in the direction of the voice. There is a girlish shriek and a thump. Wanda slowly sits up and looks at what all the fuss is about. Pietro is lying unconscious at the foot of her bed. Wanda yawns and looks over at her calendar. May 23rd, her Birthday. Wanda shrugs and gets out of bed, putting on a robe and walking down the stairs.

Much to her amazement the living room is decorated with balloons and several brightly coloured banners.

'Mornin' Wanda!' Felicia says from her perch atop a ladder. 'Happy Birthday!'

'Yeah, thanks.' Wanda mutters as she shuffles over to the kitchen.

'Hey, aren't you excited?' Felicia asks, pinning up another banner.

'Why should I be?' Wanda replies from in the kitchen. 'It just means that I'm a year older than I was last year.'

Felicia just shrugs and finishes putting up the banner. She walks into the kitchen and pours herself some juice.

'Sometime I don't get you Wanda.' Felicia says. 'I'd think that you'd be buzzin' that it's your eighteenth!'

'Birthday's kinda lost their excitement when you spent most of your teenage years in an asylum.' Wanda shrugs.

Felicia is about to reply when the front door bangs open.

'Snookums, I'm home!'

It's Todd! Felicia runs up to him and grabs him in a huge hug.

'It took you long enough ya big goof! Didja bring the beer?'

'Lance an' Freddy're just bringin' it in.' Todd replies.

'Nice of you to help us Todd!' Lance mutters as he and Freddy carry in the keg.

'What?' Todd asks innocently. 'I carried in the Doritos!'

'Yeah, and you ate them all!' Fred replies.

'Where's Typhoid anyway?' Felicia asks.

'She's just doing some last minute gift shopping.' Lance replies.

'That woman sure knows how to keep us waiting!' Felicia grins.

'Who knows how to keep who waiting?' Typhoid asks from the door.

Everybody jumps back with a yelp at Typhoid's sudden appearance.

'Uh, we were just talking about you sweety!' Lance replies.

'Nothin' too bad I hope!' Typhoid says, pecking Lance on the cheek.

'So what'cha brought, yo?' Todd asks.

'You'll have to wait til Wanda and Pietro open their presents!'

Wanda walks out of the kitchen and looks at her gathered friends.

'There really isn't any need to go to all this trouble you know!' She says.

'Hey-chill-out-Wanda!' A newly conscious Pietro says, zipping up to her and putting his arm around her shoulders. 'It's-our-eighteenth-birthday! We've- gotta-have-fun!'

Wanda ignores the fact that her brother is touching her and sighs resignedly.

'I'd rather have a quiet night in with my friends.' She sighs.

'But-instead-we're-gonna-have-a-kickass-party-with-beer-and-dancing-and...'

'Beer?' Wanda finishes, cocking a brow.

'Hey-if-you-wanna-get-wasted-be-my-guest!' Pietro grins.

Wanda rolls her eyes and a book is enveloped in a blue glow, flies across the room and hits Pietro upside the head!

'I'm gonna go get changed.' Wanda says.

Pietro watches her walk up the stairs and rubs the back of his head.

'You-woulda-thought-that-being-eightenn-woulda-chilled-her-out-but-nooo!'

Xavier's, later-

Kurt is running around his room in a panic.

'Vhere is it? Vhere is it?'

'Where's what Kurt?' Peter Parker says, poking his head around his door.

'I can't find Vanda's present!' Kurt replies.

'Is this it?' Peter asks, picking up a small parcel wrapped up in black paper and a red ribbon.

'Vhere did you find zat?' Kurt asks.

'It was right here on your nightstand!' Peter replies with a smirk.

Kurt just shrugs and takes the parcel from peter.

'So, are you and Rahne coming to ze party?'

'We wouldn't miss it for the world!' Peter replies. 'Do you know whether Kitty and matt are coming?'

'I don't zink so.' Kurt replies. 'Typhoid's with ze Brotherhood and she and Keety don't get on all zat vell.'

'Pity about that.' Peter replies. 'I'd heard that Kitty loves parties!'

'Ja, Keety's a real party animal!' Kurt replies. 'Mein Gott! It's almost time! I'd better get ready!'

Later still-

The party is in full flow at the Brotherhood place. Pietro's girlfriend Crystal is there too, helping Wanda get ready. Pyro's there as well, for some reason. Rahne, Peter, Jubilee, Bobby and Amara are there too. Todd is dancing with Felicia while Lance and Typhoid are staked over by the keg.

'Uh Fred?'

'Yeah Kurt?'

'Have you got any idea vhere Vanda is?'

'She's still in her room getting ready.'

'Zat's chat I'll never understand about vomen.' Kurt says. 'Vhy does it alvays take a gang of zem to get ready?'

'Just the mysteries of women I suppose.' Fred shrugs.

Kurt turns around as he hears someone walking down the stairs. His jaw hits the ground as he sees that it's Wanda, dressed in a slinky black dress.

'Vanda you look...'

'Slutty?'

'Mein Gott no!' Kurt replies, BAMFing over to her and kissing her. 'You look beautiful!'

Wanda blushes slightly and returns the kiss.

'You've got Crystal to thank for that!' She says.

'Oh no Wanda.' Crystal replies. 'I just took an already beautiful thing and out the right clothes on her!'

'Vhat ever vay you put it.' Kurt says. 'She still looks beautiful!'

'Hey, Wanda!' Lance calls from the living room. 'Let's go, the sooner you get down here and open the presents, the sooner we can have more beer!'

Wanda takes Kurt's hand and follows Crystal down to the living room. Fred turns down the stereo to a more manageable volume and the presents begin to be opened. Pietro mostly gets clothes but from Todd and Fred he gets a collection of DVDs.

'Wow! Playboy's-greatest-hits! I'll-put-these-to-good-use!'

'I bet you will, ya perv!' Typhoid grins.

Then it's Wanda's turn. She gets jewellery from Rahne, Amara and Jubilee, a book of witchcraft from Peter, shoes from Fred, flowers from Todd, the dress from Crystal and yet more jewellery from Lance. Then it comes to Typhoid's present. As soon as Wanda opens the box, she slams the lid closed and blushes furiously.

'What's up?' Typhoid asks. 'Don't you like your present?'

'It's not that.' Wanda replies. 'It's just... Well, see for yourselves.'

Wanda opens up the box and takes out a set of sexy black undies. A wolf whistle rises up from the assembled guests. Kurt however, just gapes at the sight of Wanda holding the lingerie.

'Why can't Kurt enjoy the gift too?' Typhoid asks with a grin.

Lastly it's Kurt's turn.

'Come-on-fuzzy!' Pietro says. 'Cough-up-your-present-and-it'll-better-be- good!'

'I'll zink zat I'll give it to Vanda later.' Kurt replies.

With that, Fred turns the stereo volume back up and the party begins again.

Later still-

The party has almost drawn to a close and the various couples are dancing to a slow song. Todd and Felicia, Lance and Typhoid, Rahne and Peter, Pietro and Crystal and Bobby and Jubilee. Even Pyro and Amara are dancing together, reluctantly on her part, as it happens. Wanda and Kurt however are sitting on the sofa. Wanda turns to Kurt and whispers in his ear.

'Don't you think it's time that you showed me your present?' She asks seductively.

'I don't see vhy not!' Kurt grins.

Wanda then gets up and leads Kurt upstairs.

Pietro looks over at them walking up the stairs.

'What's up sweety?' Crystal asks.

'It's those two!' Pietro replies. 'They're going up to her room, I know it!'

'Oh be quiet!' Crystal says. 'Leave them in peace!'

Wanda's room-

Wand and Kurt are now sat on here bed. Kurt takes something out of his pocket and gives it to Wanda.

'I know it's not much.' Kurt says. 'But it signifies how much zat I love you!'

Wanda takes the box and unwraps the paper.

'At least you got the colour right!' Wanda grins. She then opens up the box and gasps at what is inside. It's a silver ring with two hands holding a heart and a crown.

'I-it's beautiful!' Wanda gasps.

'It's a Claddagh (sp?) ring.' Kurt says. 'It's Celtic. If you put in on wiz ze tip of ze heart facing you, it means zat your heart is taken.'

'Wow! I don't know what to say!' Wanda says, putting it on, with the heart tip facing her.

'Do you like it?' Kurt asks.

'Yes Kurt, yes I do!' Wanda replies, holding Kurt close in a hug. 'Now for your birthday present!' She says, leaning him back on the bed.

'Uh, Vanda, it isn't my birthday.' Kurt replies nervously.

'Just think of it as an early present!' Wanda answers, creeping closer.

Later-

Pietro is walking along the corridor leading to his bedroom. He halts outside Wanda's room as he hears something.

'Oh Kurt!'

'Oh Vanda!'

'Ohh Kurt!'

'Ohh Vanda!'

Pietro kicks the door open.

'Oh-my-God!'

There is a dull thud as Pietro passes out from the visual overload of seeing his sister in bed.

'Did you hear somezing?' Kurt asks.

'Nu-uh!' Wanda replies.
