Just a little oneshot about John and Kitty, because there aren't enough!
Kitty Pryde walked along one of the upper corridors of her school, 'Mutant High' as the students called it.
She sighed in irritation as she turned a corner and came upon Bobby and Rogue getting as close as they could without actually touching skin – which was very close – and turned the other way.
A little further on it was Scott and Jean, giggling – honestly, Jean giggling! – and turning into yet another corridor Kitty reflected on her lack of another half.
It wasn't that she hadn't had a boyfriend before, because she had, but none of them were… what she wanted, exactly.
On the last corridor, where her room was, she saw Logan and Storm kissing - WHAT! – and decided that was it. She'd go to the danger room, or shopping, or something. Anything to get away from all the couples in the mansion.
She concentrated, and felt herself slip through the floor towards the main corridor and stairs.
Falling down, she felt herself become lighter, as expected, in preparation for hitting the ground. What she didn't expect was to be caught by a pair of strong arms.
Looking up from her position near his chest, she saw a pair of warm brown eyes. Startled by the sudden turn of events, Kitty tried to free herself form John's arms, but couldn't.
"John, put me down now!" Kitty tried to stand, but John's arms wouldn't budge.
Damn he's strong! She thought, and then realised how handsome he was, and how nice his eyes were, up close.
"Nope. You know, you may hit me for saying this, but there's no-one else I'd rather have in my arms than you."
He winced as he said this, expecting a sturdy whack from her, but was still totally unprepared for Kitty's reaction.
She kissed him. On the lips.
Dropping her – finally! She thought – he looked at her in shock. Kitty still had her arms around his neck though, and as he smiled and bent his head to kiss her again she thought:
Hypocrite. Now your one of the couples you wanted to get away from so badly! Then another voice started up, saying Do you care, really? You're kissing John, and it's great!
A little later, the three other couples came down the stairs, and if Kitty hadn't been otherwise engaged she would have heard Jean remark:
"Honestly, can't they do it in private?"
