Kurt awoke from his nap, rested. He stretched out, some bones in his body cracking response. In the process, he accidently elbowed Haley. He had completely forgotten about what happened earilier. When he did recall, he was slightly embarrassed that he had fallen asleep there instead of leaving the room.

"Ow!" she moaned, holding her shoulder that had been hit.

He rolled over to look her in the face. "Oh, sorry, Haley. I forgot you were there. I didn't mean to wake you." His tail tiredly waved from side to side.

Haley gave a small shrug. "It's okay. I've been up…well for like five seconds…" she trailed off, looking away from his yellow eyes.

"Then, why didn't you wake me?"

Blushing, she fibbed, "Uh…well…I was too tired to move…" Well, actually, it wasn't a complete lie. When she had awoken earlier, she enjoyed his presence next to her. However, she was still very tired.

Kurt flashed her a full-fledged smile. "Well, thanks. What time is it?"

"I don't know. Let me go check…" She slid off the bed and walked over to her dresser. "It's seven forty-five-"

"That's not too bad."

"In the morning!" She nearly threw her clock against the wall. "Kurt, we have been asleep the entire night! We have half an hour to get to school!" Scurrying over to the bed she tugged on his shirt. "Get up fuzz ball!"

He groaned, slowly making his way to his feet. "We'll never make it in time. I didn't make breakfast or have any!" Kurt exclaimed, his barely awake mind beginning to function.

"Why didn't anyone wake us up?"

"I have no idea!" The two faced each other. Their eyes wide in panic.

"We don't have a way to get there!" She then looked at Kurt, getting an idea. "Could you teleport us to school?"

Sadly, the blue teen shook his head. "Not the entire way. It's too far!"

Haley sighed, looking up at him hopefully. "How about halfway?"

He nodded. "That I can do."

"Okay, well hurry up and get changed!"

Once Kurt was gone, Haley quickly changed. Not being able to take a shower, she put her hair in a ponytail and then put a baseball hat over it. She changed into a plain t-shirt and jeans, so her look appeared intentional.

Kurt was waiting for her outside her door, looking normal and all. "You're fast," she remarked, surprised.

"Image-inducer, remember?" He indicated to his watch.

She frowned. "Psh, lucky. I wish I didn't have to put so much effort into getting ready..."

He rolled his eyes. She was taking up too much time with her rambling. To shut her up he said, "Hold on." Haley took his hand and prepared for the teleporting. "Halfway to school," Kurt murmured as they found themselves in an ally. "We have ten minutes!" He shook his head. Why did girls have to take so long to get ready?

"Can you teleport us the other half there?" she asked hope in her eyes.

"Nein, I'm so tired." The demonic looking boy rested his back against the wall. Saying that had seemed to make him realize just how tired he was.

"I'm guessing nein means no," Haley muttered, frustrated.

"Oh, yes it does, sorry."

"So I'm guessing running isn't an option either?"

He shook his head. "Sorry, it looks like we're out of options. It looks like we're going to be grounded longer than we thought."

Haley had one last idea. It was probably dangerous, but it might just work. "Kurt, grab my hand," she instructed hastily.

"What are you planning on doing?" he wearily asked. Haley looked up. Kurt understood what she wanted to do. "No! You can't!"

"Why not!?" excliamed, frustrated. She did not want to have more extra training sessions.

"It's too risky. You've only recently learned how to use your power. Wait a minute! Do you even know how to use that power?"

She rolled his eyes. He had begun to rant now. There simply wasn't enough time for that. "It's worth a try. I rather do this than be stuck with more extra training sessions!" With that, she pushed off the ground, dragging Kurt with her. She kept ascending until they were above the clouds.

Kurt was nervous. "Are you sure I'm not too heavy for you?" The wind whipped against his silky fur. The sensation of flight like this was making him a little woozy as well.

"Yeah it's fine. To me, this is like swimming. In water, things are lighter, so it's easier for me to tow you with me than it would be in normal circumstances," Haley stated in manner like he had just asked if the sky was blue.

Within a few minutes, they came in view of the school. That's when Haley got tired. Her eyes began to droop. Despite having gone to sleep early, she was still mentally and pyhsically exhuasted from all the training. She wasn't perpared for this kind of thing yet. Her vision began to be invaded by black dots. The two mutants began falling to the ground rapidly.

"Shit, Haley!" Kurt cried. "You have terrible timing!" However, she didn't hear him because she was unconscious. He gathered up his energy and teleported them to a spot where they wouldn't be seen.

He held her limp body with great care. "Come on, Haley. Wake up!" Kurt shook her body, worried about her. "I told you this was a bad idea!"

She stirred, grinning wrly. "But it got us to school, didn't it?" He hugged her tightly.

"I was so worried. You are not doing that again," he scolded.

"Thanks for saving me," she replied, kissing him on the cheek. Kurt blushed. Luckily, nobody was ever able to tell.

Then, he did something that shocked them both. He grabbed her face and gently but strongly kissed her on the lips. She kissed back. And from this kiss, Haley learned a lot. She learned that she didn't feel this way about Pietro. She learned that she did feel very strongly about Kurt. She also learned that he was a very good kisser.
