Chapter Twelve

Kathy sat on her bed, while Kurt sat next to her. Kurt gave her a weak smile.

"Are you sure your alright?" Kurt asked.

"I'm fine," Kathy said," Why do you keep asking?"

Charles and the others were in the kitchen making something to eat.

"What's this?" Kitty asked, taking something green out of the fridge.

"It's bracoli," Charles said.

Kitty dropped it and made a face. Lance gave a small laugh while the others made some sandwiches. Kurt came in a minute later and two of the sandwiches off the pile they had made. He quickly ran back upstairs, while the others watched him.

"They must be hungry," Logan said," Wonder why Kathy didn't come down and get it herself."

Charles looked up the stairs to see Kurt come back down. He went back into the kitchen, grabbed a glass, filled it with water, and went back upstairs.

"Okay," Todd said, taking a bite of his sandwich." Looks like he is going to be busy."

Kurt came back down, but this time he sat down in one of the chairs with a sigh.

"What happened elf?" Logan asked, sitting next to him.

"She is just a little mad," Kurt muttered.

"I'll go talk to her," Logan said, standing up." After all, she is my daughter."

Logan walked out of the kitchen, up the stairs, and into Kathys room. Kathy was sitting on her bed, looking at the ceiling. Logan sat down next to her.

"You alright?" Logan asked.

"WILL YOU PEOPLE STOP ASKING ME THAT?" Kathy shouted.

Logan jumped alittle when she shouted at him, but he stayed where he was sitting.

"Come on," Logan said," We need to talk."

"About what?" Kathy asked, looking at Logan, who looked alittle shocked at how fast he voice changed.

"Well," Logan said," You've been quiet alot and I just wanted to know if there was anything I could do for you."

Kathy gave a small smile, then said," You really think we'll be safe here?"

"If Charles said so," Logan said," Then of course we'll be safe."

"Is there anything to worry about?" Kathy asked.

"No," Logan said, putting a hand on Kathys shoulder." We'll be safe here."

Kathy put her head on Logans arm and closed her eyes. Logan gave a bigger smile.

"Do you want to go down stairs?" Logan asked.

"Not really," Kathy said.

Kathy laid down on the bed, while Logan put a hand on her stomach.

"It kicked," Logan whispered.

Kathy gave a small smile, but closed her eyes and went to sleep. Logan gave her a small kiss on the forehead and left the room. He went down the stairs to see that everyone was in the living room now. He sat down next to Kurt, who looked at him.

"Vell," Kurt said," Vhat happened?"

"She is sleeping," Logan said, then gave a small smile." I felt the baby kick."

"Really?" Todd asked.

"Yup," Logan said.

"I've felt it kick before," kurt said.

"Me too," Will said.

"Has anyone else?" Todd asked.

Todd was shocked to see everyone else raise their hand.

"Tough luck," Pietro said," She kind of got mad when I touched her, but she got over it."

"She let you touch her stomach," Todd yelled," How come every time I want to touch her stomach, she slaps my hand away?"

"Because she hates you," Logan said.

Everyone, except Todd and Charles, burst out laughing. Todd shook his head and sat farther into his seat. Jean stood up and started to head upstairs.

"Where are you going?" Charles asked.

"To talk to Kathy," Jean said.

They watched as Jean disapeared heading up the stairs.

"I wonder why she wants to talk to her, yo," Todd said.

"Because she can talk to her," Kurt said.

"It's not fair," Todd said," That could be my kid and she won't even talk to me or let me touch her."

"Because she hates you for doing vhat you did," Kurt said," I hate you for the same thing."

They were silent for about five minutes. Todd kept giving Kurt an evil look, which he returned with an evil look too.

"This is getting stupid," Scott said," We should get along. After all, we could be here for the rest of our lives."

"That won't happen," Charles said," Soon, they'll think all mutants are gone and we'll be able to come out of hiding."

Just then Jean ran downstairs, a look of worry on her face. Everyone looked at her as she stopped to catch her breathe.

"Kathys water just broke," Jean said.

Storm and Beast quickly ran upstairs. Everyone else was about to follow.

"Everyone stay here," Charles said," They'll take her to the infirmary."

"But," Kurt said," I vant to be there."

"I know Kurt," Charles said," But you can't. Logan will be with her though."

Logan quickly ran to help them out with Kathy.

"Okay," Charles said," Follow me."

Everyone followed Charles to the door, where the infirmary was. He turned to everyone.

"Just sit down in the chairs that come out of the wall," Charles said," I'll be back to tell you what's happening."

Charles wheeled into the room, without another word. Everyone pulled out chairs and sat down. Kurt sat as far away from Todd as possible. Charle would come out now and then and tell them what was happening. Kurt was looking very worried, while Todd was smiling. Kurt hoped it would be over soon.
