The older mutants were waiting for Kitty (sans Kurt who decided to save face and teleport to school) all a bit worried about how she'd acting after Kurt's reaction. To they're surprise she didn't seem flustered any more than usual as she climbed in the back of Scott's car.

"Sorry I'm late, I almost forget to wear the special outfit I layed out for Lance."

She wore her jean caprices and pink sweater, the same outfit she wore every Tuesday, Sunday, Thursday, and some Fridays.

"It's what I was wearing when I met Lance!" Shadowcat filled in for her companions' lack of words. "Um, aw?" Spyke offered weakly, Kurt was the one who normally put up with Kitty, despite his absence she carried on at average speed.

"So Even, don't you get your history quiz back today?"

Until lunch...

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Though out the morning Jean saw bits and pieces of Kurt, mostly him keeping his head down and dashing off to class. Unless some girl spoke within the octave of Amanda's voice; then Kurt would run full speed until he was behind the closest open door.

The German didn't even see his girlfriend until the lunch bell rang, that didn't stop him from running into: a Psychology class; a health class, and a janitor's closet. The final blow came when he finally saw his girlfriend coming down the hall and bolted for the closest bathroom...it wasn't the boy's.

With a flick of her wrist Jean knocked Kurt off course and sent him tumbling into the guy's bathroom next door. The Professor was going to call Jean to his study after school but she didn't care, no one else seemed to notice besides Amanda.

Kurt's girlfriend was clearly on the verge of tears as she rushed into the girl's bathroom; Jean wasn't far behind.

"Amanda?" The girl in question was leaning over the sink, her puzzled look told Jean she had no idea who the telepath was. "I'm Jean, I live with Kurt at Xavier's. Amanda didn't look Jean in the eye but just looked at the door. "I'm sorry if Kurt isn't acting like himself today, we've all been a bit off since the institute exploded...Anyway we've all been really cramped, less bathrooms, and well Kurt accidentally walked in on one of the girls in the shower today."

"Oh.." Amanda said giving Jean an odd look.

"It wasn't me! I haven't done anything this week!"


Yeah it looks like story alerts gets me writing too, but I prefer Reviews ;) Sorry if this ends at an odd point, this was going to be twice as long, but hey who doesn't like more chapters?
