-Hallway outside of the kitchen-

Upon hearing the discussion-taking place, Kurt spun around and stared at Scott attempting to gauge a reaction from his leader. Scott was beside himself on one hand he held a righteous fury that he wished to take out on Wanda, yet on the other hand he felt happy that Jean found someone to share in those most intimate moments with.

Kurt looked at Scott's granite like face, a face that showed nothin of the inner turmoil that plagued his leader, "Umm… Scott ve could alvays get something to eat another time."

Scott opened his mouth to respond, but was silenced when a heavy hand landed on his shoulder. He turned to look at the muscular Russian that is Piotr. "Hello my friends. Would you like to join me for a snack?" he asked with a big smile on his kind face.

Scott sighed, "Yeah come on." He pushed open the door with Kurt and Piotr following behind.

Piotr smiled and waved to the occupants of the room, entirely oblivious to the conversation that had just taken place, "Hello my friends." Piotr walked to the fridge and gathered various things to make a sandwich.

Pietro cocked his head to the side, "Hey Pete."

Jean turned around and looked at Scott expectantly, "Oh Scott. Hi… I think we should talk."

Scott stopped in front of her, with his fists balled up, but he spoke in the most sincere voice, "Of course Jean, we can talk about anything." He began to eye Wanda when he finished his sentence.

Piotr was struggling to open the mayonnaise jar, so he decided to change into his armored form. This action gained him instant access to his desired prize. Guilt gripped at Jean as she spoke to Scott, "Scott… I… Wanda… We…"

Scott held up his hand signaling for her to stop, "Take a breath Jean." He smiled at her, "And just tell me."

Guilt wrapped itself around Jean's heart, "I thought I liked you…" Scott's smile dropped into a frown, "But the things I've experienced with Wanda… They make it all seem so much more… real."

Scott still eyeing Wanda began to grind his teeth. The anger he once felt steadily beginning to boil to the surface, "So… you cheated on me? With a woman no less, and even worse with a member of the Brotherhood."

Wanda sat on the counter next to where Piotr stood as he took a bite of his sandwich still clad in his armored form, "This is better than the soaps St. John would make us watch at the old Acolyte base." Wanda nodded and smiled in response.

Jean stared at Scott apologetically, "I'm sorry… I'm just so sorry."

Wanda's eyes widened, "Wow I've never broken up a relationship before." Piotr chuckled at her and took another bite of his sandwich.

Scott glared at Wanda through his ruby quartz glasses. Piotr looked at Scott's glasses and noticed something odd, they were beginning to crack; "It's okay Jean I don't blame you." Suddenly Scott's optic blast burst through its confinement, "I blame her."

Piotr stepped in front of Wanda and took the blast head on, "My friend you must stop this!"

Scott quickly closed his eyes and faced Piotr's general direction, "Piotr… Jean… Wanda… I'm sorry."

Anna looked at the once proud leader of the X-Men, "Wow Scott you almost blew a new hole right through Wanda."

Kurt put his hand on Scott's shoulder, "You didn't mean to did you?"

Scott sighed, "I think I did Kurt. I honestly think I did."

Piotr ripped off what was left of his shirt; "You are acting very strangely my friend. I'm so upset I can hardly finish this sandwich," He held up his half-eaten sandwich and took a bite, "You know my friend I think it would be best if I stood between you and Wanda until you calmed down."

Jean looked around the room, "Where is Wanda?"

Anna glared at every single person still in the room, "Pietro ran out of here with her."

-The Brotherhood room-

Lance was busy sleeping in his armchair, until a certain silver-haired speedster and his disgruntled slightly lesbian twin sister rudely awakened him. He stared at the twins Wanda appeared to be in shock, while Pietro appeared to be on a level of pissed off he'd never seen before.

Lance peeked an eyebrow, "What did you two do this time?"

Pietro calmed down a bit before talking, "One-eye tried to kill Wanda after she stole Red from him!"

Lance nodded not really caring what he had to say until the words finally sunk in, "Wait one damn minute! Wanda's a lesbian?"

Wanda hexed his armchair and it crumbled back into its natural elements, "Focus! Summers tried to kill me!"

Pietro sighed, "Can you watch her until I get back?"

Lance looked down at the rubble that was once his chair, "Fine I'll protect your psycho sister."

Pietro smiled, "Good I'm going to go get Todd."

Wanda peeked an eyebrow, "Why do we need Todd? Lance is that jackass's equal and besides I'm way more powerful than any member of the Brotherhood is."

Pietro started walking towards the door and shook his head, "That's why you looked like a deer caught in the headlights when that blast was heading towards you."

Lance chuckled, "I can't believe it. I missed the Scarlet Witch freeze up."

Wanda glared at him, "You can always watch her turn you into a rat!"

Lance got up and moved to the couch, "I don't know why we need the rest of the Brotherhood. I can take Summers by myself."

Wanda sighed and sat down next to him, "I don't know. There was something different about him. Like he just snapped."

-Outside Ororo's room-

Pietro sped up to Ororo's door and knocked on it. 'Please have clothes on, please have clothes on,' He thought to himself as the door began to open.

Todd opened the door wearing a black and white bathrobe, "What's up yo?"

Pietro shook his head, "Put some pants on we're going to protect Wanda from one-eye."

Todd sighed, "What she do this time?"

Pietro crossed his arms, "I'll tell you when we get up to the room." Suddenly Pietro's jaw dropped.

Todd peeked an eyebrow in confusion, "What are you staring at yo?"

Pietro pointed into the room and tilted his head to the side, "Do you think she could teach Anna how to do that?"

Todd looked into the room, "I'll be out in a minute yo." He walked back inside and closed the door.

-A few minutes later-

Todd finally stepped out of the room wearing his normal street attire, "Don't worry Cuddlebumps I'll be back as soon as Wanda is safe."

Pietro was tapping his foot impatiently, "If one-eye got to my sister, I'm going to tie your tongue to the back of the jeep and drag you down main street." He grabbed him by the shirt, "Now hold on." Both teens were gone in an instant.

-A few minutes later in the Brotherhood room-

Todd sat wide-eyed with his mouth open on the couch, "Wow… Just wow. Didn't think Mr. 'I can lead anyone into battle' could crack like that."

Pietro sighed while Wanda flipped through the channels, "So now you know why we need the Brotherhood to protect her."

Lance nodded in agreement, "If we keep her here she shouldn't get into to much trouble."

Wanda glared at her brother and his friends, "How far away do you think I am?"

Pietro stood up, "We'll watch the door together and I'll clean you guys out in a friendly game of Indian poker." He smirked and shuffled a deck of cards.

-A few hours later-

Wanda stood over the bodies of her drunken protectors. They lied on the floor surrounded by beer cans and playing cards.

She shook her head and kicked Pietro; "Great they're supposed to be protecting me and they're asleep."

"Wanda?"

Wanda looked around, "Who's there?"

"Wanda, it's okay its me Jean."

Wanda instantly calmed down, "Thank Elvis. I thought I was going crazy… again."

Jean chuckled, "No. Listen I have Scott here and he wants to tell you something."

Wanda rolled her eyes and crossed her arms; "If he's going to threaten me I prefer he do it in person."

Now Scott's voice could be heard in her head, "Listen Wanda. When I found out about you and Jean I… I was furious."

Wanda shook her head, "That's the understatement of the year."

Scott sighed, "I deserve that, but I've been talking to Jean and she's gotten me to realize that I shouldn't be mad at you. That I should be mad at her but I could never bring myself to be mad at her. So, I'm going to wish you two the best of luck while I spend some time with my brother and think about things."

Wanda's eyes darted back and forth, "Umm… apology accepted."

Jean then entered her head, "I'm so glad we could work this out. Maybe later you can stop by my room."

Wanda smiled, "I'll be there around eleven."

"See you at eleven then."

She looked down and glared at her personal slightly drunk bodyguards, "Hey idiots wake up!"

Each one woke up, sat up straight, and looked at her, "Scott and I are okay now."

Todd smiled and shook Lance and Pietro's hands, "Good job team. We protected the target and everything worked out perfectly."

Lance sighed, "But I wanted to pound Summers' face into the banister."

Pietro looked down at his watch, "If I sober up, I can still make that date." He sped off.

Wanda shook her head, "He's got it bad." She then went to sit on the couch, "Then again so do I."
