Kitty dashed downstairs, tying her hair. "Stupid, stupid, stupid alarm clock…" She cursed.
Most of the Brotherhood were still around the house. Kitty was only a newcomer but she felt she just had to scream, "Hey, aren't any of you guys going to school?"
"I am…for my own safety." Pietro zipped out of the room. Kitty didn't know what he meant by that.
Kitty sighed deeply at the other hopeless two. Blob was sleeping on the ground and toad…ok, he's eating but I'd rather not talk about it…
Kitty scanned her eyes around the house. Mystique was nowhere to be seen, just a nice aroma coming from the kitchen.
"Mmmm…toast!" Kitty rubbed her hands eagerly, and dashed for the kitchen.
It wasn't all that beautiful for a kitchen but the toast looked good.
"Lance, you can cook?" Kitty was awfully amazed.
Lance nodded, "yeah, but I only made it for you and me. Forget Blob, forget Pietro and I don't think Toad would prefer this to his flies, anyway."
Lance sat down to enjoy the breakfast with Kitty.
Halfway through their breakfast, Kitty glanced at the time and almost died, "Lance, school starts in fifteen. We have to go now, unless you want to get late on our first day."
Lance sighed and taking yet another bite, he offered to get Kitty to Bayville High…if he could find it.
Bayville high seems friendly enough. The place was bright, neat and lots more good stuff to add to that.
Kitty and Lance clutched their books and walked into the new school halls. "Nice…not bad at all." Lance said.
"Yeah, it's pretty nice." Kitty admitted.
"Look, I think I'll check out the toilets now, if you don't mind me." Lance knew he shouldn't have drunk so much water that morning.
Kitty nodded, "Ok. Here's my locker anyway. Good, it's close to the cafeteria. Early lunch for me."
Lance smiled and took off. Where the hell was the shit place?
Kitty almost bummed into someone while opening her locker. "Oh, sorry. Like, I shouldn't have been so klutzy."
"Don't worry, not a big deal." Some gothic looking girl replied as she got her books up from the ground in one quick sweep and threw them into her locker. Her locker was almost as Goth as she was. Korn, Marilyn Manson, Garbage and black looking stuff were there.
"Oh, um, I'm Kitty. I'm new." Kitty grinned.
The Goth girl looked up. "Ah'm Rogue. Not new."
Kitty couldn't think of anything much more to the conversation. "Oh, um, I'm from Illinois."
"Really? I'm from Mississippi." The Goth Queen certainly didn't want to talk much, does she?
Rogue looked up, seeing two of her friends, she followed them off. One was with shades, making him more "outstanding" from the others and he was as tall as Lance was. The other had a deep German accent and had a pretty fun streak to him. Funny how she could actually hang out with them.
"Hey, Kitty. I'm back already." Lance said.
"Oh, Lance." Kitty shut her locker.
"You'll never believe what I'm gonna' say but just now, I met a…"
"Hey, Rogue, vho vas that girl you vere talking to?" Kurt asked, taking a quick look back at Kitty. "She looks nice."
"Someone having a crush on another girl?" Scott laughed.
Kurt folded his arms, "I've never seen her before, so she must ve new. But she's with another guy…"
"Hey, don't let it get you down. Maybe she'll come to you. I've heard before love in first sights."
Rogue mumbled, "Says 'er name's Kitty. I don't know, really…"
Kurt played with hands, "Kitty? That's a nice name…" Then, he begun to wonder between the fuzzy elf and Kitty…
Scott waved his hands in front of Kurt, "Kurt! Kurt, you and Rogue have European History class and you are going to be late if you don't hurry!"
Kurt snapped out of it and dashed into his class after Rogue.
All through History, he wasn't paying much attention.
If only I could meet her…Kitty didn't have many friends to hang out with, for starters, so she could only eat with Pietro, since she couldn't find Lance.
"Cheer up, Brain-dead. He'll be here soon enough. He's just having problems finding his brain." Pietro said, smugly.
Kitty glared at him, "Don't call me that. And don't ever call Lance that too! He's a good guy and…"
Pietro chuckled, "Someone's having a crush on the Avalanche. Wow…we should air that on TV."
Kitty really wanted him to shut his trap and go away. At first, she thought that maybe he wasn't as bad as Toad or Blob, but now, she wasn't too sure.
"Shut up, Pietro." Kitty said, angrily, playing with the vegetables on her plate with her fork.
Pietro didn't even bother and that left Kitty more upset than ever.
Scott came walking in with Kurt, hoping to bag a table, when Scott caught sight of Kitty at the corner of his eye.
"Hey, there's your girl…" He nudged Kurt in the stomach.
Kurt rubbed the little aching part but his eyes were fixed on Kitty instead. Seeing Pietro, he didn't know what he should do.
"But…but vhere's someone else vith her."
Scott nodded, "Yeah, different guy too. The first one had a black vest on and brown hair. Hey, just…give it a shot. I'll go get a table and wait for Jean and the others."
Kurt nodded approvingly and stepped forward. He got beside Kitty and said, "Ja, hi! Are you…new?"
Kitty looked up. At last, a friendly face. "Yeah, I am. And you are…"
"I'm Kurt. Wagner…. um, I live on an institute at the other side of New York and um…uh…"
Pietro glanced at Kurt, shaking his head, "Pathetic. You like her, tell her. But I don't think she'll be very interested in you."
Kitty snapped back at him, "Pietro, what I do is none of your business."
She turned back to face Kurt, smiling, "Sorry, my friend's a little…crazy sometimes. Just don't bother about him."
Kurt nodded, "Can I sit down?"
Kitty said, "Yes." And he did.
Jean met up with Scott. There was Evan and Rogue, digging into their food already and so was Scott. But where's Kurt?
"Scott, where's Kurt?" Jean wanted to know.
"Hitting on a new girl." Scott pointed at them.
Jean looked closer. Yes, no mistake that Kurt had his back to her but the girl was strangely familiar. "Kitty?"
"What, you know that girl too?" Scott asked.
"Um, yeah. The professor and I were suppose to recruit her but we lost her to Avalanche."
Scott stood up, "Then, is Kurt in danger?"
"With that guy sitting beside Kitty, I'm not so sure, Scott."
Jean and Scott decided to confront Kurt, Kitty and Pietro.
"Kurt, you shouldn't be with them," Scott said, as he eyes fell on Pietro. If he dares move, I'll kill him.
"You mean…Kitty and him are…mutants?" Kurt watched Kitty's face fall.
"Yes, Kurt. But right now, she's in the Brotherhood, with mystique. That makes her our enemy. We can't trust her." Jean pulled Kurt back, as if Kitty would pick her fork up and slice through him.
"Listen Red," Lance shot out from now where, "Pick on someone your own size. Don't think you are a Telepath and a telekinetic, you can push your weight around."
Scott went on defensive for Jean immediately. "Hey, watch your words."
Lance looked like he was ready to slice Scott into half when Kitty grabbed his arm and pulled him back a little. "Lance, don't. I…I don't want to fight," her voice was shaking a little.
People were practically staring at them. X-Men v.s. Brotherhood.
Kurt could actually see it in Lance's eyes. He stopped, because of Kitty. Don't tell me he…
Kurt was upset. Lance liked Kitty. He really did. Or else, he would have already used his powers and did something, in whatever way his powers worked.
"Look, this isn't over." Lance said angrily. Kitty watched him and Pietro walk off, just as the bell rang.
She looked at the X-Men go. Kurt turned back once too.
But Kitty was already running up to catch up with Lance.
"Kurt, don't look so gloomy over her." Jean said.
Kurt nodded and when no one was looking, he silently ported off.
Kitty glanced at Lance while they were heading off to their Chem class. When she knew she was having Chem with him, she didn't know why she felt so happy inside.
Maybe it was because she was having it with someone she knew…
"Lance, we are enemies with them?" She asked.
"Yeah…" He watch Pietro zip off.
"Oh…but that boy looked pretty friendly." Kitty admitted.
Lance put an arm over Kitty shoulder. He didn't say anything.
But inside, he hoped and he HOPED she wouldn't fall for someone like blue boy.
He hoped that she'd like him instead.
Oh god...homework again...i'll die soon.
Next fic...late...
