It was a small sound. A tinkling laugh, breaking the monotony. Jubilee turned around, catching Kitty with a hand over her mouth, shaking softly from repressed laughter. The giggle almost didn't even seem like a laugh.

"What are you laughing at Kit-Kat," Jubilee asked eventually, not able to handle the suspense.

"You looked so serious," Kitty answered, trying to sober her face up. She failed, however, lapsing into yet another giggle. "It was cute!"

Jubilee just stared at her, not exactly sure what to make of the situation. "I'm reading a book," she said eventually, holding up the text in question.

"But you don't ever study... is that why you went all the way to the basketball courts at night to read a book?" Kitty asked innocently, her statement pierced by another laugh.

"I don't study, and you don't giggle, Kit-Kat," Jubilee said simply. "Cute or not."

After all they had been through, it was hard for Kitty not to relate to their relationship as something that was older than it truly was.

"Piotr?" she asked sweetly, her arms wrapped around his thick waist, her head tucked against his shoulder. "Do you remember the day we met?"

He inhaled deeply at the question, and Kitty was able to feel his body expand with every breath. It was something to be relished. Just like how she could hear his heart beating as she held him like this.

"Of course, Katya," he said, reaching backwards to pull her closer to him. "It was a hectic day, but there was no way for me to forget that look on your face."

She smiled, though he couldn't see it. Somehow, that answer was exactly what she had been looking for.

If there was one thing Kitty couldn't understand, one thing that her brilliant mind couldn't grasp, one thing that simply baffled her, it was ignorance. Yet, this ignorance hit so close to home, at such a difficult time, it brought her quickly to an emotion that was even more alien to her than bafflement.

Anger. Such consuming anger that she simply wanted to hurt someone. Hurt them to the point they couldn't get up any longer.

There were tears on her face as she lashed out at the student, his only crime having been anti-mutant sentiment. Somehow, though, it wasn't the student she was lashing out at. It was the idea of the student.

She was lashing out at the Sentinel that had killed her father. She was lashing out at Cassandra Nova, for bringing a blood feud to such a cusp that innocent people, people like her father got caught in the way. Kitty wiped the tears away from her face, smearing the boy's blood off her hands.

She barely felt other students pulling her away as she froze. All she could think about was that in the name of her father, she had wanted to kill an innocent person.

What made her any better?

"Surprise," Jubilee whispered in Kitty's ear, blindfolding her with her hands as she kissed along the other woman's neck.

"What are you doing?" Kitty whined, shifting slightly, but not moving away from the attention.

Jubilee just laughed, licking at that spot where Kitty's earlobe met her ear. "I'm getting away with mischief," she said, punctuating her sentence by slipping her hand up Kitty's shirt and squeezing the woman's breast.

"But... Piotr," Kitty mumbled, shifting against Jubilee.

"Nn, so?" Jubilee asked, not wanting to hear that name. "Don't tell him."

Kitty felt dirty, but turned around anyway, kissing the girl. She craved contact. Oh, how she craved contact.

She loved Colossus, but there was something addictive about Jubilee. Her little surprises.

Brushing her hair out of her face, Kitty studied Piotr's pensive face. He seemed stoic, like he had been holding in a long hurt.

"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked suddenly. Well, obviously he had been hurting. He said those four little words. Those words that could break up any relationship. 'We need to talk.'

"Tell you what?" Kitty asked, meeting his eyes.

Piotr just shook his head, almost as if he couldn't even manage to bring that thought to words. "What did she mean to you?" he asked finally.

Oh. That. The girl paused, wondering how she could phrase it.

"She was contact," Kitty said finally, lowering her eyes from Piotr's face. "When I was so afraid because I had lost you."

They shared the awkward silence, both feeling like they had broken the others' trust.

"I never should have done it," Kitty said at the same time Piotr added, "It was my fault; you thought I was dead."

The silence continued, neither one of them sure what to say anymore.

"This is the most sordid political campaign I've ever seen," Kitty huffed, picking up the remote to turn the television off, not wanting to hear another campaign ad.

"Sordid?" Piotr questioned, looking over at Kitty.

She thought for a few moments, trying to think of another good word, but pulled out an English-Russian dictionary instead, looking up the word quickly. "It's убогий . Sordid."

He nodded, looking at the ads, almost with a sense of benign interest. "They are all trying to get elected, yes, Katya? But they all cannot be."

She nodded. "And that's why they pull such tactics, such as blatant anti-mutant bigotry. It lets them get certain people to vote for them."

The Russian paused, turning off the television eventually. "Ah, I think my comrades would find this 'sordid' as well... They want anything but the better good... they just want power."

No sooner had Kitty waved off Piotr as he left the school than Jubilee rounded a corner, looking like she was about to vomit. "We were never like that," she said, sticking out her tongue.

"We were never really in a relationship, Jubes," Kitty pointed out, wondering what the other girl was trying to get at.

Wrinkling her nose, Jubilee added, "But you're so sweet together it's sickening. How can you stand it?"

"Well, when you're in love, you can deal with such things," Kitty pointed out, staring off dreamily in the direction Pitor had went.

Jubilee didn't say anything, shaking her head as she walked off. It was so sweet it made her jealous.

"But you don't know if it will work," Kitty said, hanging onto Colossus' arm. "What if... what if it just kills you and we all die from the virus anyway?"

Piotr gave her a look. "Then I will be dead anyway."

She swallowed hard, knowing exactly his reasons for taking the vaccine into himself, even at the cost of his own life. His sister had died. What more had he to live for?

She almost wished it could be for her, but their relationship never felt like it was what it ought to be. Never since Illyana had died.

But the vaccine wasn't a risk she wanted him to take. She had taken such a big step starting this relationship... and once again, she was in this place where she didn't know the right thing to do. She had cared for Illyana... not nearly as much as her brother, of course... but still.

She swallowed hard, wrapping her arms around him, and trying not to cry. "I know. I know."

"Katherine! You are all red!"

Kitty looked over at Nightcrawler, covering up her face as red as a tomato. "It's nothing," she said simply, glancing over at Illyana as the girl left, giggling softly.

"Did Magik tell you something?" he asked, overly inquisitive as always.

Kitty gave Kurt a look, wondering how he could be so thick sometimes. "No, I'm embarrassed over nothing. Of course she said something!"

"It's about him, isn't it?" Kurt asked, in a way that was just knowing enough that Kitty threw a pencil at him.

"Shut up. It's nothing."

Kurt just laughed, shaking his head.

Theme: #40 Cleanse from x_men100

She was dirty. She needed to clean. She stepped into the shower, knowing that the hot water, no matter how refreshing couldn't wipe away the sheer filth. It wasn't something soap could cleanse. She needed something that could purify the soul.

She sat down in the shower, staring up at the ceiling as the water ran through her.

It was only a chance for them both to get out their loneliness. It was nothing else. It wasn't like she hadn't done it before.

But they weren't supposed to feel any emotion for her.

She wasn't allowed to fall in love with Jubilee. It was against the rules.
