About an hour and a half later Piotr woke up in his room, and groggily got out of bed. He cleared the sleep left behind in his eyes and looked at his clock. "Eight-thirty!" He quickly went over to the bathroom to take a quick shower. He got out thirty minutes later and took about five minutes to get dressed. "Katya," he knocked on her door. There was no response, he knocked again. "Katya, its 9 o'clock we have to go." No sound came from her room.
"Yo lunk head. What are you doing near Kitty's room," Piotr turned around and saw Kurt standing before him.
"I don not have time for this. Katya has a doctor's appointment at 10. Could you just pop inside , she won't listen to me." Kurt sneered at Piotr.
"Loved to, but can't. See there are rules that must be obeyed here, first is to not use our powers to invade someone's privacy." Kurt bamfed away, however, came back again, and had this to say, "By the way, Kitty left about 2 hours ago anyway." Kurt then disappeared again in a black puff of smoke.
Piotr couldn't do anything else that he would think would anger Kurt or Rogue, or even Kitty. He went down the stairs to the kitchen to prepare a meal for himself, but when he got down there Rogue was reading the paper and Kurt was pouring a bowl of cereal. Piotr froze for a second but then took a deep breathe and exhaled. He didn't speak and tried not to look at either of them.
For a few hours Kitty didn't come back and Piotr was starting to get worried. He sat by the phone, in his mind telling it to ring and be Kitty, but it never came. All he could do was wait. In the next ten seconds the front door crept open, Piotr bolted from his seat and ran over to see who came in. "Katya, I was so worried. Why didn't you wait for me?" She spoke not a word but went straight to her room.
Piotr followed not too far behind, she didn't object. Her door swung open and inside sat Rogue reading a book and listening to music. As her head rose from her book, she first eyes Piotr, but by the look of Kitty it wasn't the time. She closed her eyes, pretending she had not seen the two enter. Kitty sat on her bed and grabbed her stuffed animal, gripping it tightly. Piotr bent down in front of her and took her hands into his. Looking deep into her eyes, a smile stretched its way across her face. "I'm not about to kill an innocent life, or let someone else take care of my mistake." Rogue turned her head at this point, hearing Kitty's exact words, "We're having a baby!" Kitty said confidently and Piotr took her into a hug, then released her and looked into her big brown eyes.
"And the others . . . are you going to tell them?"
"We will tell them, but I want to wait a while. This is a big thing, bigger than Bobby getting an 'A' in science class." They had a good chuckle, Piotr looked over to Rogue, knowing she had been listening the whole time. "Rogue," Kitty said, as if barely realizing she had been sitting there. "You can't tell anyone, this has to be our secret until we're ready to tell."
"Do I honestly look like one of those gossiping girls or something?"
