Middi: Oh yeah! I forgot to tells yous guys about a really good comment left on my fic! Thank you Zunpip for that good comment. When I rule the world, those who have been loyal to Kurtty, and me! Will not die such a painful death! Either that or you get spared, ehhhh I'm still mulling it over actually.

"Kurt, Kitty where were you two? You know you have to go to school, so why were you out of your beds this morning? I know Kitty and her 'no carb vegetarian diet' would prohibit her from eating the pancakes I make, but Kurt shovels through his like a person who hasn't eaten food in years. Sit down and I'll make you two some breakfast."

Ororo had been pretty spooked when Kurt didn't teleport himself into the kitchen for a few hundred of her pancakes. Nothing ever comes in the way of food and the Fuzzy Dude. Bobby once stopped Kurt from eating a gutbomb burger once, and was found a week later in the forest. He ended up in the infirmary from lack of food and was dehydrated. Kurt was saying sorry for weeks, but Bobby knew then on never ever get in the way of the Fuzzy Dude's food, or you may not live long to tell the tale.

Kurt took his seat across from Kitty. They were in the 'kitchen' dining room. It had an island made of marble for making and preparing food with a sink attached, it had a giant table in the middle, tiled and open spaced until more than 20 mutant teenagers with appetites show up to feed. After his and Kitty's' little "excursion" this morning he took a shower and put on his holowatch and turned it on. It now looked like he was wearing light brown khaki pants and a blue shirt on. His golden eyes were now hidden, but his blue "hair" on top of his head stayed the same.

"Mein apoligiez Ms. Monroe, ve vere just going for a morning stroll. To clear the head, as it vere."

Storm just shrugged it off and went back to her cooking. Kitty was munching on a granny smith apple while reviewing her school notes while Kurt was shoveling down pancakes so fast it looked like he was inhaling them. She decided to leave her past shoulder length hair down. Her two front bangs framed her face while the rest of her hair jotted down behind her. She was wearing a dark blue tank top that showed her bra, and tan cargo pants on. She looked better than those fake supermodel women in Kurt's opinion. (A/N for the hair watch "Walking on the wild side" I think. X Evo episode.)

"Where were ya'll Kit? Ah was worrying mah head off." Both Kitty and Kurt looked up.

Kurt's long time "schwester" or sister, Rogue came into the room. Dark bags under her eyes and the long white streak of hair contrasting to her red hair. It was in her signature style of white bands frame the face and the red just complimented it. She was wearing her signature gloves, and a cami under a thin layer of dark colored fabric, jeans, and black army boots. Rogue and Kitty were the best of friends; they told each other almost everything, but Kurt was Kitty's very best friend.

"YaknowhrIwasRog."

"Kit what ave Ah told ya 'bout eating with ya mouth open? Talk when ya've finished chewin!"

Kitty grinned and finished chewing.

"Sorry Rogue. But you know where I go every couple of mornings, to visit Lockheed, so you shouldn't worry!"

"Kit that's not what Ah was worried 'bout." Rogue and Kurt both frowned at this statement" "This morning Ah heard ya talking on the phone with that dickhead Alvers. Y'all okay? Ah thought Ah heard a couple oh sniffles from Miss Cheerful."

This brought Kurt back into "Angry as hell because a total asshole is moving in on my girl" mode. When it was just him and Kitty this morning he completely forgot about Kitty's make up with Lance. But it also reminded him about his talk with the Professor, and the car keys that were still upstairs. The Professor told him to talk to Ms. Monroe before he went to school today. He was going to do that after he finished eating.

"…Oh that." It sounded like Kitty didn't want to talk about it at the moment, but Kitty being Kitty never lets anyone, even her friends, let her know that she might have a weakness. So she decided to play cheery again, "Yeah I'm completely fine Rogue! No need to worry about little old me! Like, omygosh I like, totally forgot about my history textbook upstairs and I have a like, test today! Sorry guys!" She got up to leave; everyone knew it was an obvious lie because she had just been reading her history book. Kitty always went into her 'valley girl talk' when she was lying or when she was nervous. And before Rogue could stop her she phased through the table and to the door, a sad look evident on her face.

Everyone just stared at her as she left. They knew that Kitty was a really social person so why wouldn't she wasn't to talk about her feelings? Everyone just sighed and went back to their breakfast, or some were trying to cram some extra notes into their heads before the tests they had to do today.

"Aw Kit come back here! Damn, she awtta know that Lance is just gonna break her tiny little hart, so what's wrong with that gal?" A concerned look on Rogue's face showed that, even though she was tough to get to know, she really did care about her friends.

Then a mysterious, (but always sexy) voice came up behind her, wrapping trench coat arms around her shoulders.

"Oh don't worry mon Chere, Petit knows just what she is doing. Maybe is you leave her alone and pay more attention to lil 'ol Remy here like I 'kno she keeps sayin' t'do, our lil' Petit would think that you weren't out to kill me. Now…how's about cut'in off yer powers an giving Remy here a kiss?"

"Laike Hell Ah'd do that! Now get off me ya'ol swamp rat!"

Rogue tried to shove Remy off, but failed. He still kept a strong hold onto her chest.

"Ewwww! Could ya t'least wait till we've left to grope yer girl Remy?" Wolfsbane, Rahne asked.

"Non, I just want my Chere to know that little Kitty would be more opening to what's happening with her if you'd just let her come talk to you when she's ready." Remy said seriously. "You know that Gambit's right Rogue, you went through the same thing when you took everyone's powers an erupted. Remy here heard you were sent into a coma for a couple 'o days."

Kurt stopped eating his breakfast to listen to what Gambit was saying.

"That doesn't mean that Awr Kitty's gotta face it alone! Ah know she's tough, and Ah know she's just keeping her feelings 'side herself to piss may off! That little perv Lance aught to know what happens if he hurts Kit again!" Kurt nodded furiously. Rogue was yelling and then got quiet, "She's just…Kit's strong and independent, but's not in her t'keep things bottled up…it's maine."

"Listen chere, Kitty's probably just feeling the strain of everything you gotta do lately. And if Wolverine didn't start pushing her with her weapon training, and starting with machine guns-"

"Keety's doing vas?" Kurt asked suddenly. He slapped his hands on the table, surprised and furious.

Kurt had no idea about her secret training with Wolverine. He was shocked to say the least. His beautiful, pure and innocent Katzchen, using weapons, let alone guns. Well pretty much anything she could get her hands on when she was mad constituted in the category as 'weapons' but that's beside the point! The only thing that Kitty was actually 'lethal' in was her phasing ability…and her cupcakes.

"Ya didn't know?" Rogue asked genuinely surprised. "Ah thought Kitty would tell ya'll the minute it happened."

"She didn't mein schwester. So tell me."

"Well. Kitty's ban feeling a little down 'bout not being able to contribute more. Albeit, she wanted to feel laike a true part of the team. So she asked Logan to help her. Ah think it's a great idea, she can really kick some ass with those knives of hers."

"Vell…she should haf told me! I'm her best friend!"

"Well ya Fuzzball, it miaght be exactly why she didn't tall you. She cares bout you too much. And besides, ya'll just heard about it and your going ballistic, if she told you Ah don't know how freaked out you'd be."

"She's right Bleu. Listen to mon chere, it'll get in her good books. Now," he said as he rummaged through his pockets until he found something. "Aha! Now take these here keys and go get your petit now will ya?"

Kurt was shocked and a little embarrassed. He grabbed the keys from Gambit's outstretched hand and 'ported upstairs.

When he was upstairs he saw Kitty. But unfortunately, she was too close to him, and it was too fast a collision for her to phase. She landed right on top of him. And when she noticed who it was there was a small hint of a blush on her cheeks. She quickly got up and started running to her room, which was a few feet away.

'Kurt! ASK HER IF SHE WANTS A DRIVE YOU IDIOT! NOW! BEFORE SHE RUNS AWAY!'

"Hey Katzchen vait up!"

"Uh hey Kurt! Like what's up?" A nervous smile erupted onto her face.

"Um…uh…do you…"

"Kurt? What is it? Tell me already!" Tapping foot and voice raised + Kitty makes for a very annoyed Shadowcat.

"Do you have a ride for school today? If you don't…can I…um take…you?"

"Sure why not. See you downstairs in a couple of minute's k Fuzzy?" Kitty said with a smile before phasing into her room.

For a few seconds Kurt was frozen, and not because Bobby iced him…this time. Kitty just said yes to go into a car with him, for the better part of a half an hour drive to the school they would be alone. He did the 'Chicks dig the Fuzzy Dude dance' in the hall. He started climbing up and down the walls when he realized he had to talk to Ms. Monroe about something. He 'ported to the kitchen, but not before getting the black car key from his room.
