Todd walked somewhat upright, somewhat hunched over back to the noise of the ongoing party. From the other direction, Rogue and X-23 approached holding hands. "There you are.", Rogue declared. The two girls both took one of his hands in one of their own. "It was getting crowded down stairs."

X-23 nodded. "That's a euphamism for wanting to be somewhere else.", she explained. "Fortunately, not all the dorm rooms in the mansion are assigned, so some are empty enough to be left alone in."

Rogue batted her eye lashes at Todd what she hoped would be dramatically, but was actually quite comical. "Do you want to be all alone in a bed room with us."

"You're right.", Todd agreed. "It is too crowded down stairs."

The girls pulled him into one of the unused rooms, still furnished but without the personal touches of students occupying it. Instantly, X-23 had pasted herself to his back, wrapping her arms around him and burying her nose in his shoulder. Todd thought he could hear her purring as she tried to breathe him in.

"You don't mind if I take a while to get ready, do you shug?", Rogue asked from across the room. Todd nearly questioned why she was so far away (did whatever X-23 treat like catnip push her away?). But then he considered her request. By the time he returned his concentration to his eyes, he was entranced. Rogue held her gloves between her teeth. Under the green mesh gauze of her over shirt, she slowly brought her arms through the straps of her tank top and allowed it to wiggle down her body until she needed to step out of it. The color of her bra, black or forest green or some other in the dim light, he could not tell but certainly not for lack of attention. Still inside her translucent garment she unsnapped the fastener across her back. She held one arm across herself as she dragged the other through the strap, pushed her hand through her sleeve and forced her hand back into its glove. Now back in the sleeve of her outer shirt, she held that arm across and repeated the motions with the other side. The bra slipped loose and joined the other covering on the floor.

As Rogue slowly swung her hips by placing one foot directly in front of the other, holding on her hands in front of her, X-23 whispered to Todd. "Don't you want to kiss her?"

"Yes."

"Then prepare for her."

Todd was about to do just that. And then he realized. "Um, you know...if you want me to do that for you, I could.", he said.

X-23 stared hard in front of her. "That's right. You could, couldn't you. Would you? Now?"

Todd's tongue barely peaked out, as if only wetting his lips. X-23 senses fully realized what he did. The boy slightly turned his head and X-23 pulled on his body tighter. Her kiss was fueled: that was the only way he could think of it. The strength behind it, her sheer activity.

"Is there any where for me?" Rogue asked. With a too loud smacking sound, the other girl pulled away. As Todd licked the bottom of his face, Rogue continued. "Besides, isn't there something you wanted to do, shug?"

X-23 pulled her hands from Todd, giving up territory to Rogue's barely enshrouded body. With fingers to her lips in wonder, she stepped forward into to Todd's view. Rogue pressed her lips to his, but the tilt of her head still allowed him to see. X-23's arms disappeared into her leather jacket. She bent over in front of him, wiggling her butt as two hands came out the bottom of her jacket dragging her shirt down her legs. When she stood up, her whole body shimmied left and right. Again, the girl bent over and sashayed her hips as she struggled a sports bra down to join the floor. Standing, her gloved hands came out of her jacket's sleeves again and reached in front of her. The undoing of two snaps and the pull of a zipper could be heard throughout the room.

She turned and Todd could see that her jacket had just a hint of hanging open, exposing a smidgen of skin from her waist all the way through her neck while Rogue still wore her choker. He could also tell that while Rogue thought the coating on his face was invisible, X-23 could detect it quite clearly. The girl rushed the two and dragged her tongue across the side of Todd's face. She collided with such force that Todd was barely able to get an arm around her. As her tongue receded back to roll around in her mouth, Rogue noticed. "You're holding us both up in the air."

Todd was leaning backwards and felt all the weight resting through his torso on through his legs. "Well, how about that, yo?", he commented. He looked around for a half of a moment to check his leap, slightly bent his legs and flopped them all to the bed in the room.

Rogue kissed him again. His hand felt the heat of her skin through what he pretended was nearly nothing and felt her shiver as the near corpse like temperature of his amphibian like body slithered down her spine.

When Rogue pulled away, X-23 lapped at his lips. She was nearly kitten like. Todd's other hand strolled down the back of her heavy leather jacket until it fell of the end and finally met her just more than warm skin.

X-23 hissed in pleasure. Her hands moved the sides of Todd's head. Rogue nearly pulled her face away until she realized that the other girl just needed a place to put her hands, and moved hers to the boy's shoulders. Todd was able to move his other hand to join the first on X-23's back. At this the girl arched her back. "Oh, that feels so nice. And he smells so beautiful. It's so much. Keep going."

Todd moved his hands up and felt unforgiving, unyielding bumps of vertebrae and rib bones that she must have been intended to 'grow into' but not by much. Todd was very much aware of X-23's sensitivity by now, so he massaged his hands up to her shoulders and down her triceps around to her biceps and avoided her armpits entirely. Finding out what 'super ticklish' was did not seem to be the good idea for right now.

A startled Rogue barely managed to get out of the way as X-23 wrapped her arms around Todd's head. "Let's stay safe now, shug.", Rogue warned.

X-23 may have been too far gone to care. "More. Please." She let loose a garbled moan against his face.

"Are you sure?", Todd asked with growing concern but more anticipation.

The girl nodded quickly. His hands finally came over her breasts inside her coat. His motions were quickly rewarded. And even in his enraptured state he felt Rogue lying next to him, having only a thin wrapping around herself, anticipating her and her intentions. X-23 brought her forehead down to meet his and stared into his eyes. Her breath was rapid as if she was having trouble catching it. "You're so much, Todd.", she sighed. "I was so right to choose you. We were so right to choose you. I'm so grateful."

And at that she let out a moan that was half purring. Her back arched and Todd felt the metal bones in her hands and even her arms constricting around his skull. And just like that X-23 turned to putty in his arms.

"Super sensitive?", Todd asked, estimating his abilities.

"Especially to you.", the girl assured. She breathed him in through her nose, dragging her face down his and his neck and his shoulder...

"Miss me, shug?", Rogue asked. And just like that, he was making out with another beautiful girl. And while she rested her hands on his shoulders, with X-23 purring her way down his body the only place his hands could go were... "It's alright, Todd.", Rogue told him in a less playful voice. "I don't think I would've taken my shirt off if it wasn't." And Rogue was so much larger than the other girl. And he could feel the heat of her through the gauze she still wore.

Even through their next kiss, he could hear his belt becoming undone. Todd looked up with a start. X-23 was pulling at the opening to his pants like a kitten with a ball of yarn. Rogue laughed gently at the expression on his face, even as his hands failed to leave her. And when X-23 pulled him free, she inhaled and her eyes grew wide. Then a flash of maybe not dread, but certainly hesitation crossed his face. Rogue told him, "You don't have to let her if you don't want to, shug."

"My wanting to isn't what I was thinking about, yo.", Todd admitted.

X-23 spoke but took the cue from the others in reducing her usual volume. "Oh, I want to." The girl licked her lips.

Todd tried to nod from his prone position. "Okay."

Three full licks later and she was engulfing him, savoring him and his unique taste.

"Oh, I'm sorry.", X-23 stopped for a moment. "Rogue, I didn't mean to take him all up for myself. Even though he's absolutely delicious. Did you want to...?"

Rogue's smile faded a bit. "Sorry, shug. I can't, exactly."

X-23 wanted to empathize. "Well, more for me.", she declared.

Todd laid back and looked up into Rogue's green eyes. He asked intensely, "What? What can I do?"

"You could kiss me.", Rogue helped. "And maybe, just, pinch, a little. Be gentle though."

Todd took her words as commandments. And too soon in his mind, he had his arms wrapped around Rogue and whimpering in her ear. He could barely form his thoughts and more than a few of them were how he had pressed her into his chest. But still he managed. "I'm gonna...I'm going to. I have to warn her."

Rogue continued to assure him. "Don't worry, shug. She has super senses. I'm sure she heard you."

Todd still tried to hold on, desperately holding to this fantasy that he was still afraid was just that. He clung to Rogue like a life ring, his coated lips planting kisses on her ear lobe and on her neck and on her eyebrow and wherever she let his badly aimed lips meet her skin given a second chance at living. But X-23 was feverish in her efforts. And he could not hold out forever.

Rogue took in a large breath when Todd stopped squeezing her rib cage with strength she once thought only in his legs. Todd took in more as he tried to catch his breath. A loud thump echoed around the room as her metal encased skeleton and gravity dragged a suddenly limp X-23 from the bed.

"Oh, that's...that's just...heady.", X-23 assessed from the floor.

The other two raised their heads slightly. "Are you alright there, shug?"

The other girl flipped to a standing position with an even louder thump. "I think I am.", she declared. X-23 used a hand on either side of her jacket's opening to pull the leather against herself. "I get it now, the feeling that makes you dance." She swung her hips from side to side while slowly swaying in a circle. When her gaze came upon Todd again, she immediately faced away and actually twerked at him.

Rogue's head fell against his chest. "I think you finally found something that can get a healing factor drunk, shug.", she giggled.

X-23 spoke again. "Oh my.", she declared. "Daddy's coming."

Todd and Rogue looked at each other in nigh horror. "Wolverine.", they hissed at each other as if the man wouldn't hear them.

But they were teenagers. So Rogue hopped off the bed and started snatching shirts from the floor. Todd zipped himself up, planted his feet on the head board, pulled himself horizontal and would have tackled X-23 if she wasn't so much heavier than he was. She patted at his hair clumsily and smooched all over his face as he snapped and zippered her jacket closed. Rogue glanced around in a near panic and simply tossed the clothing from the floor behind the bed, hoping that Wolverine did not have the capacity to see through opaque objects.

By the time Logan opened the door, without knocking or warning, Todd was standing just in front of its swing with his thumbs in his pockets. Rogue stood behind him, resting a gloved hand on either one of his shoulders, obfuscating her 'one veil of seven' attire from the adult. X-23 was across the room, swaying to a tune only she could hear while pumping her fists in the air. "Welcome to the party, yo.", Todd greeted.

Wolverine glared at him like only he could. They were dating teenagers in a room alone together: and he wanted to come down on them. But he knew, or at least believed considering the mess of his memories, that it had taken him quite a long time to become accustomed to his own hyper sensitivity to engage in any of that so Laura assuredly had not. Rogue couldn't even touch any one, poor girl. He would have taken a few sniffs, but whatever emanated from Toad nearly visibly clouded the room. He growled, "Why's she dancing like that?"

"I'm having fun, old man.", X-23 called out in reply.

Todd felt Rogue shrug behind him. "She was feeling a bit overwhelmed, with all the people talking and the music and the food smells and everything from the party, yo. So we took her upstairs so she would be in a place a bit quieter, but didn't want to just leave her alone. Maybe she can still hear the music?", Todd wagered.

He was lucky. Logan tilted his head. "Yeah, they're still playing that junk you kids call music nowadays. Uh, you kids just leave the door open.", he said as he stepped out of the room.

"No way, old man.", X-23 said as she slammed it shut after him. The girl ignored the horrified faces of the others as she threw her arms around them. "You didn't want to leave me alone."

Todd could not help but laugh as he held the two in his arms. "How did I get so lucky?", he asked looking back and forth between the two of them.

Rogue swayed her head. "Well, you didn't exactly get lucky..."

"You smell like toxins.", X-23 blurted out.

Rogue smiled. "And you think on your feet pretty fast."

The other girl licked his face again. "And you taste like man."

"And you do defend us, even when you don't think you're brave enough to.", Rogue reminded him.

X-23 froze in a crystal clear calm. "And you make us feel good about ourselves. While it feels like everybody else is judging us and finding us at fault for just being us, you've either judged us and found us worthy or you never placed yourself in your head in a spot to judge us to begin with."

Rogue looked into X-23's eyes. "Amen to that."

X-23 threw herself into another smooching fit, covering Todd's face. Rogue shared a much more singular and deeper kiss with Todd.

"Sulfur and brimstone?", X-23 asked aloud.

Rogue rolled his eyes. "I guess we're free and clear, now that my brother is going to have Mr. Logan running all around the mansion after him and his girls.

"At least we all can get some sleep."

X-23 hugged the two tighter. "Nah, I wanna dance some more. And then we can...", she said before she broke down laughing. She tried to speak again, but ended up in giggles again. After a few more times, she managed to breathe out "Then we can all sleep together. But not a euphamism, just snoring." The girl went into a complete giggle fit at her own 'joke'.
