Stranger than Fiction

"Matt come on get up. You need to get up your parents are leaving in a couple of hours come on." Rogue said shaking Matthew

Matthew snorted and opened his eyes. Rogue was already fully dressed in her purple top and ripped jeans.

"What time is it?" Matthew asked rubbing the sleep from his eyes

"It's 11:30 now come on. You been sleeping like the dead all morning. Now get your gray ass out of bed get cleaned up and go talk to your parents. If you don't you're sleeping in the damn rec room for a month." Rogue said opening the curtains and letting the sunlight flood the room

"OK I am up. " Matthew said getting out of bed and stretching.

"Good now go take a quick shower. I already have your clothes laid out for you. So just get cleaned up get dressed and go downstairs. Your parents and Carla are waiting for you in the rec room." Rogue said pushing Matthew into the bathroom

"All right I am going calm down Marie." Matthew said still sounding sleepy while turning on the shower

"I am calm you just need to hurry it the fuck up. You had no problem falling back into your friendship with Carla now I want you to at least try to be cool with your parents." Rogue said as Matthew threw off his boxers and got into the shower

"I know I know. Don't worry about that OK?" Matthew said as he started to take his shower

"OK but you better be nice to them Matthew. " Rogue said walking out of the bathroom

"You know I will be so don't worry." Matthew said popping his head out of the shower

"You better. Well, I am going to go watch TV with Kitty. If you need me I'll be in her room OK?" Rogue said

"OK." Matthew said

Matthew heard Rogue leave the room. He let out a deep sigh and went back to his shower.

* Shit what the hell am I going to do? I had no problem with Carla but this.......SHIT! Come on brain work dammit give me something to say! I had it all figured out lastnight but oh no I had to change my mind...Oh that's nice I should do that. Damn I can't believe this. Rogue is my girlfriend and I got Carla back. God I am so happy! I am so glad she took up my offer be friends again. Damn I didn't even realize how much I missed her. Marie sure did seem to notice though ..... God I still can't believe how beautiful Marie really is. It must have been nothing short of divine intervention when I was able to form coherent thought around her when I first got here. My life sure has changed. Just over a month ago I was some short chubby dork that girls never looked twice at Now I am one the most powerful mutants around and Rogue is my girlfriend no less. I still can't believe this. I been dreaming about her ever since I first saw her on that show and now I am really here with her. I know this can't be a dream now ...... This is real .... I am really here ... I always felt like I didn't belong back in my world I guess all this explains why. I belong here. *


"How did your talk with Matthew go lastnight?" Regina asked

"It was great. I think we are right back where we were when he last saw me. He sure has a good memory. He started bringing up things I haven't thought about in years. I can understand why though I mean those memoires are all he had of me and he said he used to run them over in his mind all the time when he thought about me. He even remembers what I had on when we first met. Right down to my friggin shoes" Carla said Looking at Matthew's Mother

"Really?" Joe asked looking surprised

"Yeah he even remembers how nervous I looked. That's a little creepy I mean we were only like what? Four or five? " Carla asked

"You two were four. It doesn't surprise me he remembers that. He used to tell me about things that happened when he was just two." Regina said with a smile

"Really? I never knew that." Carla said looking surprised

"He has a very good memory for someone that takes a miracle to pay attention to anything for more than five minutes. The only time he would calm down was when he was watching cartoons." Joe said

"That I remember." Carla said with a slight laugh

"Remember what Car-car? " Matthew said walking into the rec room and sitting next to Carla

"How you never seemed to calm down unless you were watching TV." Carla said as Matthew sat down

"I am still pretty much like that. I just don't really have time to watch TV now. Something is always happening around here to keep from just plopping down and being a couch potato." Matthew said with a sigh

"Oh you must be going in TV withdrawal huh? " Carla asked

"Not really. I get in a good hour or two before lights out. Normally I just sit on my ass and watch it all day but I seem to actually have a life now so I can't do that anymore. To be honest the things that go on around here are a whole hell of a lot more interesting than anything on TV." Matthew said with a slight smile

"I noticed that myself." Joe said

"Yeah I think we all have." Regina said

"SO tell me where the hell is that Russian kid Carla? I haven't seen him all day and last I recall he was hanging all over you." Joe said looking at the girl

"Oh yeah Piotr. Well, he said his good-bye to me lastnight before I went to bed. He told me he had to go out of town for a couple of days to check out a lead on his parents and wanted to say good-bye since he wouldn't be back before I left." Carla said

"Did he say anything else to you about...well you know?" Matthew asked looking to the girl

"He tried but I told him I wasn't ready for something like that and he said he understood... I think I hurt his feeling though. I swear he is just a big teddy bear under all that muscle." Carla said with a slight frown

"Well, I am sure he will be cool with just being friends. Who knows maybe when you are ready you might want him to be your boyfriend. Have yourself a knight in shining armor." Matthew said the last part jokingly

"Oh shut up I don't like him like that Matt!" Carla said blushing

"Whatever you say." Matthew said smiling

"That's right whatever I say. He's nice but come on I only known him a few days and he is already trying to hook up with me. That's just crazy!" Carla said

"It is not as crazy as you may think Carla. I am sure Jubilee told you about how fast me and Rogue hooked up. It wasn't love at first site for her either." Matthew said with a serious look

"That's different Matt. You two went through some pretty weird stuff when you two met. Plus you already had a big crush on her before then right?" Carla asked with a smirk

"Oh great everyone knows about that too?... Yes, I did I had a crush on a cartoon character at the young age of eighteen." Matthew said looking slightly embarrassed

"Nothing to be ashamed of Matty. I had a crush on Spike from Buffy for crying out loud." Carla said with a slight laugh

"You and every other girl I know." Matthew said smiling

"What can I say just can't resist those cheekbones and that accent." Carla said jokingly

"Well, I have no idea why I had a crush on the cartoon. Maybe it was the whole lonely Goth girl thing." Matthew said with a shrug

"Well, you always had a thing for the dark mysterious types." Carla said

"Yeah I guess that's it." Matthew said with slight smile

"Speaking of Marie where is she?" Joe asked

"She's watching TV with Kitty." Matthew said

"Well, I do hope she says good-bye to us before we have to leave." Regina said

"She will don't worry ..... Do you like her?" Matthew asked looking to his parents

"Of course we do Matt. Why would you ask us something like that?" Joe asked looking a little surprised

"She is real worried that you two might not like her." Matthew said

"Well, you tell her we both like her very much and we are looking forward to her coming to visit us for Christmas." Regina said

"OK I will." Matthew said smiling

"Oh that reminds me. She said you had something you wanted to talk about with us." Joe said

"oh........" Matthew said looking a little hesitant

"Well, what is it Matt?" Regina asked in her best motherly tone

"Ummm......I....." Matthew said looking like he was trying to talk but couldn't get the words out

"What's wrong Matty?" Carla asked looking a little worried

Matthew let out a sigh and got off the couch walked over to his Mother and gave her a big hug then kissed her on the cheek before walking over to his dad and giving him a hug as well.

"What was that for?" Regina asked smiling

"I have a confession to make........When I found out all of you were coming here I didn't want yall too. I know I acted nice and all but I was just doing that so I wouldn't hurt your feelings.... I was afraid If I let you in I might have betrayed my family....and an old friend's memory." Matthew said the last part looking at Carla and frowning

"You mean you don't want to see us anymore?" Regina asked looking very hurt

"That's not what I am trying to say mama..... What happened to me is in the past. That was a whole other world, A whole other life...and another person had those things happen to him. I have changed a lot since I been here. Not just physically but on a personal level as well. Last night when I was talking to Carla I finally realized something." Matthew said looking at the three people around him

"What did you realize Matt?" Carla asked

"That I belong here. That you are my family... I realized that deep down I don't care if you aren't the exact same people I knew. I was meant to be here all this was meant to happen.......and you are meant to be my family. Also Carla I am sorry I hurt you. I was just afraid Marie might take me trying to comfort you the wrong way and want to break up with me. I hate myself for hurting you like that and I am really sorry Carla." Matthew said looking to his friend

"It's OK Matt..." Carla said with a fake smile

"No, it isn't. You were my closest friend once and I should have treated you better when you came here. I don't think I will ever forgive myself for making you cry like that." Matthew said walking over to Carla

"I said it's OK. I understand that you did what you did because you knew if you didn't I might have ruined what you had with Rogue. I realize now that you aren't him. You are so much like him but you aren't the same man I fell in love with. I want to be your friend though... I really do want us to be like we used to be....and I forgive you for how you acted." Carla said looking up to him as he stood in front of her

"Thanks Carla...." Matthew said with a faint smile yet with sadness still in his eyes

Matthew sat back down and continued to talk to Carla and his parents until it was time for them to leave. Rogue was waiting in the Lobby for them as they walked in. Hank and Matthew walked in carrying their bags. Rogue made a gesture for Matthew to walk over to her. He put down the bags and walked over to her and she whispered in his ear.

"I wanna try something. " Rogue whispered in his ear

"What do you mean?" Matthew whispered back

Rogue leaned in and whispered something in his ear. Matthew got a weird look on his face then just nodded. He took Rogue's hand and walked over to his parents with her. Rogue smiled and said

"I want to try something. Hank told me it should work after he looked over some tests. It involves touching my skin is that OK with you two?" Rogue said looking a little nervous

"What do you mean? I thought you said we couldn't touch you." Joe said looking confused

"Well, that's what I though too but Hank told me something this morning and I want you two to be the first I do it with. I promise you wont get hurt...but I will understand if you don't want to." Rogue said with a sigh

"OK what is it?" Regina asked

"This..."

Rogue said walking over to Matthew's Mother still holding his hand. She reached out with her free hand and hugged her. Regina felt Rogue's face brush against hers but didn't feel anything else happen. Regina returned the hug. Rogue pulled away and the two women smiled

"See told you nothing would happen." Rogue said smiling and looking a little relieved

"I see that. Now I want you too know that me and Joey like you very much and we are proud Matthew has you to care for him." Regina said hugging Rogue again and giving her a motherly kiss on the cheek

Rogue smiled even more and blushed

"Thank you Miss....Mama." Rogue said after Regina pulled away from her second hug

"Hey I want a hug from the pretty girl too you know." Joe said jokingly

Rogue laughed and walked over to Matthew's father. She let out a little surprised squeal when he reached down and gave her a big bear hug. Matthew shook his head looking slightly embarrassed

"Hey get your hands off my girlfriend you dirty old man." Matthew said with a smirk

Joe laughed out loud and let Rogue go.

"I'll take it you like me too then." Rogue said blushing

"Of course I do. Now I want you both to know you don't have to wait around till Christmas to come see us. You two just come on down and stay whenever you want. OK?" Joe said looking at the couple and smiling

"OK maybe we will for Thanksgiving if nothing comes up. I can't make any promises though since we kind of live real hectic lives here." Rogue said looking at Joe then to Matthew

"Did you tell em Matt?" Rogue asked

"Yeah he told us a lot...Well I hate to do this but we really need to get going if we are going to make the flight...I'll leave you two alone with Carla for a moment though..Come on Regina let's go put our bags in the jeep before that Logan fella throws one of his fits I been hearing about." Joe said picking up his bags

Hank picked up the rest and Matthew's parents walked out of the mansion leaving the three teenagers alone. Rogue cleared her throat a little to loud and gave Matthew a little nudge with her elbow. Matthew gave Rogue a funny look then walked over to Carla

"Bye Car-car I will try and keep in touch with you as much as I can OK?" Matthew said standing infront of the girl with his hands in his pockets

"You better." Carla said smiling

"Oh hush you know I will." Matthew said smiling

"I know you will Matty. I'll e-mail you two when I get home OK?" Carla said looking behind Matthew to Rogue

"OK... Bye Carla it was nice meeting you." Rogue said before walking away and leaving Matthew alone with Carla

"I guess I better get going..bye Matt." Carla said starting to walk away

"Hey you ain't leaving just yet get over here."

Matthew said walking over to Carla and giving her a big bear hug. Carla smiled and hugged him back

"Bye Carla I am really gonna miss you .. But at least this time I know I will see you again after this..Right?" Matthew asked raising his brow

"Of course you will Matt. This isn't like last time. I promise you will be seeing a lot more of me from now on. Now I really need to go.....Bye Rogue it was nice meeting you too." Carla said turning her head to the top of the staircase where all the girls in the house had gathered

Matthew looked up at all the girls and gave them a rather harsh look. Even more so when he saw Jubilee. The girl in question let out a squeal and ran back down the hall.

"Bye Carla... I will e-mail you me and Matt's cell number when we get one OK?" Rogue said from the Staircase

"OK Bye..and Bye to you Matt see you soon." Carla said smiling before she walked out of the mansion

Matthew lowered his head and let out a long sigh. The girls all walked down the stairs and gathered around Matthew.

"That was very sweet of you Matt." Jean said smiling

"Don't worry I ain't gonna kick your ass for hugging her.." Rogue said when Matthew looked up at her looking nervous

"I don't know why I would kick his ass if he was my man and was feeling all over a hot girl like her." Tabby said crossing her arms and looking at Rogue

"That's because you don't know how to trust people. She is just my friend and that's all I see her as. Marie knows that ...right?" Matthew asked looking at Rogue

"Yes, I know that Matthew. If I didn't I wouldn't have let you be alone with her lastnight. Plus I trust you and know you wouldn't do something stupid like cheat on me." Rogue said crossing her arms and giving Matthew a look that said "you do cheat and you are dead"

"So you and Carla are back to being friends again." Cindy said smiling

"Yep sis we are." Matthew said smiling back

"She's pretty I hope I look as good as her when I am her age..I just might since we both have the same features." Rahne said

"What are you going to do now Matthew? You have your family back and your childhood friend. Not to mention yours truly as your girlfriend." Rogue said smiling

"To be honest with you I am to happy right now to think about what do next." Matthew said still smiling

"Well, If the rest of you don't mind I am going to go see if Bobby is finished with his training." Amara said turning around and walking off

"IS IT SAFE FOR ME TO COME DOWN NOW?!" Jubilee asked from the stairway

"Yes, Jub you can come down now." Matthew said

Jubilee came down the steps and walking up to Matthew

"Why the fuck did you look at me like that earlier?" Jubilee asked crossing her arms

"Because you told Carla about a certain crush I only told Rogue about." Matthew said sounding a bit angry

"...............sorry" Jubilee said

"Are you like talking about that cartoon thingy?" Kitty asked with a smirk

"You know too?!" Matthew asked looking at Kitty

"We all do. Jubilee told us right after you and Remy got into that argument." Jean said with a smirk as well

"What cartoon? What crush?" Tabby asked looking at everyone

"Matthew had a crush on a cartoon version of Rogue from his world." Rahne said

"Don't tell her dammit!" Matthew said covering his face

"Wait a minute. I thought you learned about us from books... You mean I'm a fucking cartoon character?" Tabby asked looking pissed

"No all of you are in the comic books. The cartoon was the copy of your reality since you are all adults in the comics. Well, expect for you Jubilee your still a teenager I think." Matthew said looking at the Asian girl

"Yeah but don't think to much of the comic book version. Matt told me that version of me has been madly in love with Remy for years. I mean come on I may have dated him for a while but no way would I be able to put up with his bullshit for more than a couple of years at the most." Rogue said curling her nose

"You're shitting us right?" Tabby asked looking Surprised

"No Like I said you are all characters of fiction in my world. You all got your start in comics. Except for Evan he only showed up in the show. Oh and that girl that broke into the mansion and threw those weird things on your heads." Matthew said

"Who the hell was that chick anyway?"Rogue asked

"She was a female clone of Logan.......don't ask me anymore it is really confusing." Matthew said looking as Rogue

"Matthew I don't think you should say anymore you could get in trouble." Jean said

"No, I won't I am not telling any of you anything personal I know just little bits and pieces ... Well, the clone thing was a big piece but I couldn't help it I can't keep secrets from Marie." Matthew said looking at the redhead

"OK then how about telling us when the comic first came out." Jean said

"1962 I think... It might have been 63 though." Matthew said

"Damn that's a hell of a long time. We must be very popular!" Jubilee said smiling

"Well, lets see you got video games,toys,movies,cartoons,books,and comic books. That ladies is just the tip of the iceberg." Matthew said

"I guess we are popular." Jean said looking surprised

"You have no idea." Matthew said with a smirk

"Oh wait you said movies.. Who played who?" Jubilee asked

"Sorry Jubilee you aren't really in the movies. Well, you are but nothing like" Hi I am Jubilee look what I can do." Your scene was kind of cut out of the first movie." Matthew said looking at the girl

"Shit...." Jubilee said looking disappointed

"I was in it though but guess who played me." Rogue said looking at the girls with a disgusted look on her face

"Who?" Jean asked looking at Rogue

"Anna Paquin." Rogue said curling her nose

"No way! She looks nothing like you!" Rahne said looking surprised

"Was Todd in the movie?" Wanda asked

"Yeah Ray Park played him." Matthew said

"The guy from that star wars movie?" Jubilee asked

"One in the same." Matthew said

"Wait who played me?" Jean asked

"Oh your going to love this one Jean...Famke Janssen." Matthew said with a smirk

Jean looked very surprised and Matthew could have swore he seen her smile for a moment.

"Oh it figures Jean gets the knockout to play her." Tabby said rolling her eyes

"Who played Logan?" Kitty asked

"Hugh Jackman...you do know who that is right?" Matthew asked looking at the girls

"He was in the movie swordfish." Jean said

"Right." Matthew said

"What about the rest of us? Were we in it?" Rahne asked

"Not really. Kitty and Piotr were but they just had very small parts. Lets see if I can Remember everyone who was in it........" Matthew said looking like he was thinking

After a few seconds he told everyone who was in the movies and who played them if he remembered their name. Leaving on certain people Like Edward Kelly and Deathstrike.

"Whoa there Storm was played by Halle Berry?" Kitty asked looking Surprised

"I was?!" Storm said walking into the room

"Yes," Matthew said looking to the Weather witch

"That's rather interesting. I never seen myself as being that attractive." Storm said walking over to the group of girls

"I bet Logan would disagree with you there....." Jubilee said with a smirk

"What did you say?" Storm said turning to the girl

"Nothing......gotta go now." Jubilee said turning around and walking off at a rather fast clip

Everyone looked at each other then to Storm.

"You and Logan?!" Kitty asked looking surprised

"No, I am not in a relationship with him or anyone else for that matter." Storm said looking slightly embarrassed

"Whatever you say." Jean said with a smirk

"I never Lie ." Storm said crossing her arms and giving Jean a very stern glance

"I am guessing Jubilee knows something you don't then. Maybe you should go ask her." Matthew said

"I will ask Logan himself when he returns." Storm said before turning around and walking towards her room

"I think Jubilee just opened up a can of worms." Matthew said

"Great now everyone is going to be getting some but me!" Tabby said looking pissed

"You know Piotr is still single." Matthew said looking at Tabby

"Yeah whatever. I am going to go watch TV." Tabby said before going back to her room



Logan had just got back from taking Matthew's Parents and Carla to the airport. As he walked to his room he caught a scent he knew all to well. He stopped in his tracks and felt a lump in his throat the size of an apple.

"Shit she found out...." Logan said to himself

Logan opened his door and just like he thought Storm was in his room sitting at his desk. She had the chair turned to the door and had a very serious look on her face. Logan walked in and shut the door behind him

"What's the problem?" Logan said walking past storm to his bed

"Someone tells me you have something you might want to tell me." Storm said with the same serious look on her face

"I don't have anything to tell you." Logan said throwing off his boots

"Logan we have known each other for some time and I know when you are lying to me. I am simply asking you to tell me the truth." Storm said getting up out of the chair and walking over to him

"I don't know what you are talking about Ro." Logan said trying not to make eye contact

"You know full well what I am talking about Logan." Storm said

Logan let out a sigh and sat on the edge of his bed

"What do you want me to say Ro?" Logan asked looking to Storm

"Just tell me the truth. Have your feeling for me grown beyond friendship?" Storm asked sitting next to him on the bed

Logan's face turned into an animalistic scowl for a moment then he took in a deep breath.

"Yes," Logan said looking like he had to force out the word

"Very well. Thank you for telling me Logan." Storm said standing up

"What that's it? I just told you the truth and you're just going to walk off like it's nothing?!" Logan asked jumping up and grabbing her arm

"Logan please let go of my arm." Storm said turning to him

"Not until you tell me why the fuck you even came in here and asked if you just planned on walking out of here when I told you." Logan said looking like he was doing his best not to let out a burst of rage

"I don't know why I came in here to ask you...... I just wanted to know. Now please release my arm. "Storm said

Logan growled and let go of Storm's arm.

"You know there is more to it Ro. You never do anything on impulse." Logan said

"I am sorry Logan... I....." Storm said looking as if she wanted to say more but couldn't

"I told you the truth Ororo now tell me. Why did you come to my room to ask me?" Logan said no longer looking angry

"I just needed to know. Because I....." Storm stopped herself again

"God Damn it Ro spill it right now!" Logan said now looking annoyed more than angry

"Because I feel the same way....." Storm said in a very low voice

Logan was sure he had come the closest he ever had to fainting in his life when Storm said what she just did. He had no idea she felt that way about him. Sure he noticed how her body reacted around him but he just brushed it off like he did the other women of the institute. Logan tried his best to speak but all he could say was

"Oh." He said still looking very surprised

Storm was surprised herself. She had never seen Logan caught off guard like that. She was sure he knew how she felt. With his abilities he should have been able to notice how she became when he was around her. She thought maybe he just ignored it as he had learned to do around the other less mature women of the Institute.

"What do we do now?" Storm asked

"I'm not to sure.... If you were anyone else I would try and get you in my bed right now But I respect you to much to do that." Logan said

"At least you are honest with me. Do you think we should just stay friends? Or do you want to move to the next level in our relationship?" Storm

"I ain't got a clue Ro." Logan said with a sigh

"Very well. Let us find out just how much our feelings have gone beyond friendship first then we can decide on rather to move on to the next level ." Storm said

"I think I can do that.....Who told you about my feelings anyway?" Logan asked

"I know you to well to tell you that Logan." Storm said with a smirk


"You for real Wanda?!"

"Yes, Todd I am." Wanda said

"Why you want to join those losers?" Todd asking still looking surprised

"I am joining for my own reasons. I just thought I would tell you because I want you to as well." Wanda said looking very serious

"WHAT?!" Todd said looking like his eyes were about to shoot out his head

"Todd you know full well if it was not for Xavier you would have lost your legs. It is the least you can do. if not for me then for yourself. You know if you stay with Mystique what will happen to you. Do you really want to die for someone like her? I am asking that you come with me. I can't do this by myself. I am not asking you to be a X-Man I am just asking that you move into the institute with me. I promise you will not be teased or hurt like you were in the brotherhood. Xavier is willing to allow you to stay there and he is also willing to help you train to learn the full existent of your powers.....Plus if you do this you won't have to fight with Rogue anymore." Wanda said giving him a "I know" look

"...........You know?" Todd asked looking embarrassed

"Yes, I know. I know she turned you down flat when you asked her out. That you made her feel so bad about it she said she would be your friend if you stopped being depressed. I noticed you always took it easy on her when we had to fight with the X-Men. I also know you still have feelings for her." Wanda said

"It's not like that Wanda. She was my first crush ya know? I didn't love her or anything ... now I just see her as a friend. Even though we can't hang out or even talk now since I am one of the bad guys. But Like I said it was just a crush. It's different with you though. I know I really care about you. I mean for fuck sake I stood up to Magneto for you. Do you think I am stupid enough to do something like that for just puppy love?" Todd asked

"No, you're not..." Wanda said

"Right you know just as well as I do I am no where near a match for your old man... I didn't give a shit though. I didn't know what he was doing to you I just had to stop it. I know you didn't really like me then but I didn't care. I wasn't going to let him fuck up your life anymore. After I found out what he did to you I wanted to tell you so bad but I couldn't cause Mystique and ya bro threatened to kill me if I did. Shit even Fred and Lance said they would break my legs if I told you." Todd said looking and sounding very angry with himself

"I guessed that was why you didn't tell me.....So are you going to do it?" Wanda asked

Todd sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. He sat there silent for a good five minutes looking to be thinking it over.

"You sure they won't kick my ass?" Todd asked

"If they do I will kill them." Wanda said smiling

"OK I'll do it." Todd said with a sigh

"Thank you Todd." Wands said smiling before leaning in a kissing Todd tongue and all

"I am only doing it for you. You know that right?" Todd asked after her kiss

"Yes, I know. That's why I said thank you." Wanda said still smiling



"What the hell do you mean they are coming to stay here?!"

"Calm Down Scott. You start acting the same way you did when I showed up and I am kicking your ass." Matthew said with a slight growl

"That's fucked up man. Wanda is one of us now? I never seen that one coming." Bobby said still looking surprised

"How did you find out Matt?" Kurt asked

"Wanda told me when she got back from the hospital. Then she said once Todd was well enough he was going to be moved to the infirmary here." Matthew said

"No fucking way is that guy staying here!" Scott said looking very angry

Matthew shook his head and let out a sigh.

"What the hell did I say? If you haven't Noticed Wanda made a 180 and I am sure Todd is willing to as well. He has no where else to go anyway and you know that. Magneto's dead Mystique is MIA, Blob is everything short of brain dead and Lance can't even remember how to spell his own name. We are his only option." Matthew said looking at Scott

"I trust Wanda as far as I can throw her." Scott said still looking angry

"You had no Problem with Marie though did you?" Matthew asked crossing his arms

"That was different..." Scott said

"The hell it was. You know just as well as I do Wanda was used even worse than Marie was. Marie was just lied too. Wanda was fucking brainwashed!" Matthew said looking angry

" Ok you have a point but I still don't trust Todd."Scott asked crossing his arms

" I may not like Todd either but I know if anyone can turn Todd around Wanda can.In case you didn't already know he stood up to Lance and even Magneto for her. So I am sure with our help he can be one of the good guys one day." Matthew said looking down at Scott

"He did what?!" Scott asked

"It's true Scott. He stood up to Magneto for Wanda. I was there. I helped him save her from her father and Mastermind. If he hadn't done it there is no telling what they would have done to her mind. I may not like him either but I think we can at least give him a chance." Kurt said

" You people need to stop keeping shit from me!"Scott said looking angry

"Well we wouldn't have a problem telling you if you weren't such a dick about everything." Bobby said

" I am not a dick!" Scott said

" Really? What the fuck do you think you were just acting like?" Matthew asked Raising his brow

Scott snorted and turned around leaving the others guys alone in the rec room.

"Remind me when he starts to show his ass again to turn his car into a pretzel." Matthew said looking to the other guys

"You got it man." Evan said
