"Vhat about?" Kurt demanded, "ze weather, ze science class, or ze face sucking of mine enemy-our enemy?" He crossed his arms, "eizher way, not until zis witch releases mine tail!" He swatted at June.
|
"I'll let go if you promise not to teleport away. I'm not in the mood to play teleport tag." June said sternly.
"He's not my enemy and he's not your either. Just because both sides do things differently doesn't mean we're not all trying to aim for the same thing... kinda." Celeste tried to explain. She was rather hurt by his words, holding Pietro's hand tighter. "I know you don't understand but Pietro makes me happy." |
"And I am not in ze mood for a bruised tail. How about I pull your hair and zee how you like it." Kurt retorted to June, then looked back at celeste, though it was hard not to glare at pietro next to her. "Do you even know vhat zhey do? Magneto kills anyone in his vay. He is a murderer and I would not put zat passed any of his followers"
|
"Alright your royal blue fuzzyness..." June let go of his tail.
Celeste was steaming, a sight June had never seen before. Celeste marched right up to Kurt and got up in his face, "Pietro and the boys aren't like that! You're just like Scott, always judging people before you know anything about them! Yes Pietro's father is Magento but that doesn't mean he's a killer too. You know nothing about the brotherhood, Kurt! You've let your hate and anger cloud your judgement. If you hadn't, you'd know that Freddy is a big old teddy bear whose very talented at cooking and that Pietro puts up a strong front but he's really sweet and kind, clever, a bit dorky and silly and extremely talented And he's been nothing but a gentleman to me since we started dating!" Celeste was so anger that black vines had started to grow out of the ground. |
"And maybe if you had ever gone a mission, you might zee things differently" kurt replied with just as heated a tone. "You sink we fight zem because it is fun? Because we have never tried to talk sense to zem? You sink we would not want anozer way? How has he made you sink of us as ze villain?"
|
"Wait what?No, that's not what I- Pietro hasn't done anything like that! We don't even TALK about the X-men or Magneto!" There was also a reason why Celeste never went on missions and mostly it had been Victoria who had made it clear she should hold down the fort. Celeste wasn't a contender, she was a healer.
June looked toward Pietro, this wasn't going well. Celeste was so frustrated and upset that she wasn't able to explain herself properly. |
"Celeste..." pietro placed a hand on her shoulder, "hey. Cotton candy head. Chill. He's never gonna see it any differently. That's why there his side and there's our side. But what he's not thinking of is that if he tells anybody about this then he'll be driving you away and I don't think he wants that." He eyed kurt.
"Yet would zat not work out for you so well?" Kurt retorted. "Magneto would probably love it" pietro admitted, "but if everybody here keeps their mouth shut then we won't have that problem now will we?" Kurt fell silent for a moment, looking back at Celeste. |
"Huh? Oh...right." Celeste turned her head and calmed down at the nickname. She blushed slightly realizing how pointless her tangent had been.
"Are you kidding? Eric would be singing in the rain if that happened." June blurted out before going quiet and rubbing her arm awkwardly. Celeste started playing with a strand of her hair, nervously. "I'm sorry Kurt. I didn't mean..." She took a deep breath, "Look this relationship just kinda happened. I didn't mean to yell, I just..." She swallowed hard, this wasn't easy to say, " I haven't felt this happy in a long time not since my parents..." She gripped the strand of hair she'd been playing with tighter. "I know based on our families, this relationship will be hard but... please... don't take away my happiness. Please Kurt?" |
Kurt watched Celeste for a moment, then suddenly he grabbed Pietro, yanked him away from her and BAMF, they disappeared.
|
Celeste gasped, what... what had just happened? "KURT?! Pietro?!"
June grabbed her arm, "Celeste, calm down. I can track remember? Let's give them a few mins." "How... how long have you known?" Celeste asked after a moment. "About you two? Hun, it's not hard to put one and one together. Especially when the night you were taken, you appeared outside the Brotherhood house and... SUDDENLY Pietro was in a good mood and Victoria mentioned you were feeling better too..." Celeste pouted, "So Victoria knows too?!" "Hey. Simmer. As far as we're both concerned, Pietro makes you happy. And that's something we haven't seen in a very long time... Not the kind of happy you use to be anyways. And no she hasn't told Scott." "June?" "Yeah?" "Thanks..." June smiled warmly. "That's what sisters do, Rosebud." |
BAMF
The two boys reappeared and Pietro coughed, waving his hand in front of his face, "uhg, that is nasty" he made a face as he fixed his hair, which had gotten just a bit messed up. "It is not so bad" Kurt commented from a crouched position. Much like Toad, he found it quite comfortable. "It's like a rotten egg farted" Pietro replied, looking at him. "... so... we're good then?" he offered his hand. Kurt eyed him, "Ze next time we meet, I vill teleport you to ze bottom of ze nearest lake." he rose and accepted Pietro's hand shake, "and vorse if you do anysing to harm her. But until zen, I vill not say anysing." |
"Thank you Kurt-san." Celeste bowed her head.
June had her hands behind her head, "...Don't you lot have school?" |
"Ja, we do" Kurt agreed and offered his hand to Celeste to teleport them there.
|
"Chu." She gave Pietro a quick kiss on the cheek, "I'll see you later <3" She said taking Kurt's hand.
|
Pietro gave a slight noise of protest but he let her go, "okay... see ya"
Kurt teleported them back to school. Pietro just stood there quietly. |
Celeste would have rather have let Pietro zoom her back but Kurt was going to keep quiet. She felt it would have been rude to say no. And it was clear in her face she'd rather stay with him.
"You ok?" June asked, her arms crossed as Brutus rubbed up against his leg lovingly. |
Pietro looked down at the cat, "Hmm... you and I are gonna have to have a talk later" he told the creature before sighing, "Yeah I'm fine. ... you're not gonna say anything to the guys, are you?"
|
Brutus' ears lowered, Meow? He asked tilting his head to the side.
"Why would I tell them? You can tell them yourself. As far as I'm concerned, you're happy, she's happy. I'm not gonna let anything ruin that. End of story." |
"... kay" he fell silent again. This was kinda awkward, apparently she had known for awhile and... wow, that's weird. but he really wasn't feeling like going back to school either.
|
She started heading toward the house, "You...you want me to call you in sick?" She asked, noticing his mood.
|
"You sure Dad's not gonna start catching on?" he asked.
|
She rubbed the back of her neck, "Well... your dad isn't stupid but if he does start catching on just know it's not because I've told him anything."
|
Pietro turned away, "... thanks" he replied before taking off. He needed a bit of a break after that, and he really didn't want to run into Kurt at school that day.
|
By lunch time Celeste didn't feel like being at school. She got Victoria to sign her out and headed back to the Brotherhood house.
She was taking a short cut through the not so pretty part of town when her chest began to ache a little. She rubbed it and didn't think much of it. He wasn't at school... I hope he's home. He should really get a cellphone so I can get a hold of him without passing notes in class. She thought |
((Are we really having a world where pokemon is popular and everyone has a cell phone at the same time? Lol))
