Story
Summary: Amanda has broken up with Kurt and somehow he�s not as bothered by
this as he probably should have been. Toad on the other hand has always been a
rather lonely guy with little luck in life. The two are unexpectedly brought
together only to discover things about each other, not to mention themselves...
Chapter
Summary: This chapter is in Toad�s point of view. Toad sneaks into Wanda�s room
to watch her sleep. He hears her murmur someone�s name and sinks into a depression
as to who she might be dreaming about. He goes out to the bleachers for a smoke
only to find himself someone else was already there.
A/N: This
story is written in first person and will be flip flopped between characters. I
will make sure to be clear who is the focus at the
moment. Kurt is German, as many of you know, so I do try my hardest to
implement his accent into his speech as well as using actual German words and
phrases. Any of these will be followed by an * to indicate there is a translation
for it at the end of the chapter. Don�t worry, all
words will be translated even if they have already been mentioned before. They
will also be in the order that they first show up in the chapter.

It was pretty late now, all the lights in the house off.
Maybe I can chance it now� I take a deep breath then stand up, my bare feet
settling on the the cool floor. I walk over to the
door to my room, taking hold of the door knob and slowly turning it. Pushing it
open with a quiet squeak, I peek outside, looking up and down the hall. I can
just hear the T.V. on downstairs. Pietro doesn�t
sleep much with as much energy as he has� He must be watching something to pass
the time� Very likely several somethings�
Hyper bastard� How he can watch half a dozen channels all at once I�ll never
understand. I turn my attention to the door not too far down the hall, figuring
it was safe. I creep over, my webbed hand taking hold of the knob and opening
the door silently, slipping inside. I shut the door without a sound, crouching
low to the ground as I wait for my eyes to adjust. Slowly I can see her
silhouette in the darkness and I sigh contently. I get up and walk over
quietly, standing over by the end of her bed. There was the center of my
universe, the love of my life. I smile softly as I watch her sleep, painfully
resisting the urge to reach out and run my fingers through her bi-colored hair.
Bleaching and dying like she did often damaged and burned your hair, but she
kept such good care of it that it was always soft. �You�re so beautiful�� I
murmur softly to her making sure not to make too much noise in fear of waking
her. She�d be real pissed if I wake her up�

I can�t resist the urge any longer, so I creep closer,
crouching at the head of her bed. Wanda really is lovely� I don�t stand a
chance, but� I have to try! She�s so pretty and she�s one of the few people
that really seems to care about me, at least a little.
Sure she blows me through walls half the time with the whole Hex Bolt thing,
but... Then there�s the other times when she just sits down and watches T.V.
with me. She doesn�t change the channel or anything,
she just sits and enjoys the show with me! And sometimes when we both get
hungry at the same time, she�ll sit down and eat with me. While we�re eating,
sometimes she�ll talk about the stuff she wish she had the money for at the
mall or stuff she wants to go out and do that day. Sometimes she even talks to
me about the things that are bothering her! I always try to help here however I
can, but there�s a lot of things I just can�t do
anything about� She doesn�t really seem happy here, but she doesn�t really have
anywhere else to go. I wish I knew what I could do to make her happy� I try so
hard all the time, but it never seems to be enough. What does it take to
impress this girl, huh?!

She shifts onto her side and I freeze, staring wide eyed.
Did she wake up�? I don�t dare move for several moments, but she seems to have
just changed positions. I relax as I watch her sleep, a smile returning to my
lips as I take in her lovely face. She looks so peaceful when she sleeps� Oh�
She�s smiling! She looks even prettier when she smiles� I wonder what she�s
dreaming about. I didn�t have to wait for long, but the answer that came wasn�t
one I like.

�Nnn� Johnnn��

John?! Who the fuck is John?! Why does that name sound
familiar? I know I�ve heard it before� Who do I know named John,�?
I can feel my heart breaking all over again as I stand, looking away. This
�John� guy must be great if she likes him enough to dream about him� I�m going
to have to find out who he is. For now, I don�t feel up for sticking around�
Not anymore. I turn around and quietly open the door once again, peeking over
my shoulder at her still contently sleeping form before slipping back out and
closing the door silently. Fuck� Who the Hell is this guy�? How am I going to
compete with someone I don�t know? Time for bed I guess� With a sigh I come
over to my door and go into my room, shutting the door again quietly enough so
as not to bother anyone. I lean my back against the door, closing my eyes
tightly. I don�t know what to do� Fuck� I got school tomorrow, but� I really
don�t want to go� But if I don�t people will ask why and I can�t answer that.
Better just to bite the bullet I guess. I push myself up and shuffle over to
bed. I pull my shirts off and let them fall to the ground, unfasten my belt and
lazily push down and step out of my ripped jeans. Crawling into bed in only my
boxers I bundle myself up in the thin sheets I have and squeeze my eyes shut.
How am I ever going to sleep�? Sleep did come eventually I guess, but I don�t
know what time it was when I finally dropped off.

I groan softly as music gently pulls me awake, my large
eyes opening only a little to look at the alarm clock. Time to get up I guess�
I let the music play on as I pull on the same clothes I was wearing yesterday
off the floor. I really don�t feel like looking for some clean ones right now�
Pulling on my socks and then my shoes I head downstairs. Pietro
is already in the kitchen with a bowl of cereal, always the last to get to bed
and the first to rise. �Mornin�
Pie.� I murmur, but he only gives me a distracted wave. He never really
paid me much mind unless he needed something or had nothing better to do than
torment me. Meh. All the better that he�s distracted
by the news paper he�s reading. I�ll never understand him� He works at speeds
faster than the speed of sound, yet sometimes, on rare occasions, he chooses to
do things at a normal pace like everyone else. Training he says� Whatever� I
pour myself a bowl of cereal and milk, eating quietly. The others slowly come
around and join us, Freddy cooking for those who wanted a hot meal. I didn�t
feel much like eating. I didn�t talk the whole time, no one striking up a
conversation with me anyway. Wanda was the last to come down and I suddenly
feel very uncomfortable. Normally this is the highlight of my mornings, but�
Today is different. As much as I always want to see her, I�m not really up for
it just yet. No one seems to notice I�m not tripping over myself to try and
please her this morning. Heh� She�s probably enjoying
that fact.

Soon enough, Pietro is trying
to hurry us along, wanting to get out of the house. He�s never really liked
school much, but there�s a Hell of a lot more things for him to look at and pay
attention to all at once then there is at home. At least that�s what he tells
us. I go upstairs to grab my backpack and by the time I get downstairs again, I
have to run to make sure Lance doesn�t leave my ass behind. Bastard� Oh well�
At least I didn�t have to walk to school this time. The ride was filled mostly
with Pie trying to get Lance to hurry up and drive faster, nevermind
the fact we were braking the speed limit as it was.
Why doesn�t he just run his ass to school anyway? He always bitches about how
long it takes to get there so why does he bother coming with us at all?! Must
just like to hear himself talk�

We get to school and I split off on my own when no one is
paying attention, not that they ever really pay much attention to me� I put
some of my books into my locker before class starts, not really looking forward
to any of it. Still, if I was going to help anyone else with their home work, I
was going to have to pay attention at least enough to grasp what the lesson was
about. Class came and went, my mind absorbing just enough to get by. My
teachers don�t care that I�m not really paying attention much as I�m not
exactly their star student. Some of them seem shocked at the fact that I�m
passing at all and I think a couple suspect that I
could be doing much better, but I�m simply not bothering. They�re right� Still
that didn�t mean I was about to start shooting for honor role or something�
Particularly now with how distracted I am. Who the Hell is John and why does he
sound so familiar! I know this should be someone I should be able to remember!
I�ll have to ask the guys if they remember, maybe they�ll jar my memory� I
can�t do it with Wanda around though so I�ll probably just get around to it
sometime during school.

Lunch time finally came around and I had no money� As usual� Fuck� I�ll just have to wait till I get home. This
sucks� I step out of the main building and head out to the football field,
feeling the need to relax a little. I�m stressed out normally as it is and this
whole thing with Wanda was pushing it. I come up to the bleachers and pull out
a pack of cigarettes from my backpack. Opening it as I step up a few steps, I
slip one into my mouth before squatting and slipping myself down between the
seats and into the shady area bellow them. I land with a dull thump only to
freeze as I realize someone�s already here. I blink, my lips going a little
slack as I take in who is here. Dark blue shoulder length
hair, brown stripey sweater with a white shirt under,
jeans and sneakers. Great� The last person I need to see right now is Fuzzface� What was he doing out here by himself and not
eating with his friends? Something was up� It might be fun to find out what it
is, get my mind off my own problems. I smirk as I speak, cigarette staying in
place thanks to my somewhat adhesive saliva. �What you doin�
out �ere, fuzz butt� Shouldn�t you be sittin� wit� th� othah X-Geeks?� I bait,
knowing already that I�ll have my hooks into him soon enough. It never takes
much to get a rise out of this guy, at least not for me. I pull my lighter out
of my pocket and flick it on, starting to bring it up to the tip of my cig as I
wait for my answer.

�I don�t see how it�s any of your business, but� I am not
really in zee mood for company�� He grumbles, unable to look at me as he says
it. My hand stops just short of lighting up at the answer I got. I�d expected
the �none of your business� bit and maybe a �go away Toad� which I would have
promptly ignored, but� The fuzzy blue social butterfly not
wanting company of any kind? I narrow my eyes suspiciously at him as I
cock my head to the side. Something is definitely wrong with the blue haired
teen and I fully intend to find out what would put him off so badly. Probably
going to take some digging, but I have all lunch period to do it. �What�s got yo� tail tied in a knot, yo?� I
ask before quickly�
adding, �Ol� One-Eye ain�t puttin� out no more?� Can�t
let Fuzzy think I�m worried about him or something� Besides, any insult that
even suggests he might be gay always gets a rise out of him. Straight guys are
so much fun to mess with like that�

�Amanda broke up vith me�� He
murmurs sadly without a hint of anger in his voice. I can feel my own chest
tighten a little at the unexpected answer he gave me. His eyes widen in shock
at his own words, quickly looking away from me. Amanda broke up with him? But
they seemed to have such a good thing going! How did that happen? Shit� This is
hitting way too close to home for me now�

�She did? Wow� That sucks man.� I murmur, looking down at my
cigarette for a second. The smell sticks in his fur right? I make a quick note
on the direction of the breeze and move myself down wind of him, sitting down
and finally lighting up. Ahhh� That�s better� �She give you a good reason?� I tack on, turning my attention to
him now that I finally got my cigarette going.

He stares at me for a moment, apparently surprised that I would
show sympathy. Geez� Does he really think I�m that heartless? Finally he speaks again, voice soft as he looks out
at the football field. ��Vell� Her parents
are sending her to a private school in London. She didn�t feel comfortable vith such a long distance relationship. I have to agree, I vouldn�t do
vell eizher� Ve are still friends though and she promises to visit vhen she can.� Wow� I didn�t expect him to actually answer
me.
�Yeah, that�s rough� At least you�re
still friends though, coulda worked out worse, yo. Personally, I got no such luck�� I grumble before
sighing out what smoke it left in my lungs. �Wanda�s not interested in me at
all, doesn�t matter what I do, yo�� I admit, feeling
the pain well up in my chest. I try so hard to make her happy, but nothing is
ever good enough� The whole, �it doesn�t matter what you look like, it�s what�s
on the inside that counts� crap is so idealistic� Bullshit� You can get away
with it if you�re at least average or plain looking but when you look as ugly as
me, it seems no matter what you do, it�ll never be enough. What�s more, now
she�s dreaming about some guy?! Any chances I might have had are probably gone
now�

�Mmm� I
know vhat you mean� I vanted
to date Kitty vhen I first saw her. Didn�t vork out at all� For zee better I suppose. You should
consider searching elsevhere. I mean, Vanda is very
pretty, but� She treats you very badly�� He points out what I already know, but
I doubt he knows how I feel. Sure, Kitty didn�t take an interest in him, but
they became best friends anyway. Wanda�s not my best friend� I know Wanda
treats me like dirt too� But� But still!

�Yeah I know, but� She�s th� only girl that�s evah given me th� time ah day, ya know? And she�s so hot�� I murmur back, a soft smile
pulling at my lips as I think about her, taking another drag of my cigarette.
She really is so beautiful� Aquamarine eyes, pale skin, black and crimson hair,
perfect make-up� She wears the Goth like some kind of Goddess� Her tendancy towards mid-drifts can be maddening and those skin
tight leather pants! Shit� I should stop thinking about it so hard before I
embarrass myself.

�I�m sure she�s not zee only girl in
zee vorld zhat vould do zhat. You should find a
girl zhat vill treat you vell und* vould like you for who
you are.� Yeah, that�s not a predictable answer at all� Why does everyone
always point that out? Sure it�s easy to say that, but that doesn�t mean that
�someone� would just drop into your lap. It�s not like he hadn�t been looking
or not trying!

�Heh. I�d take
anybody at this point, yo. Ain�t
nobody that would want my ass though. I mean, Freddy
isn�t interested and I�m not really either, Lance is with Kitty and Pietro wouldn�t date anyone that isn�t a fuckin� supermodel and has a female pref. like Lance does anyway,
so yeah� I�m pretty sure Boom-Boom was out to kill me either directly with her
bomb things or indirectly by making me implode from sexual frustration,
Rogue wouldn�t look at me if she could help it and would avoid me utterly when
she could� Ah don�t got much in dah
way of choices, yo.� I make plain my utter failure
and lack of a love life as apparently he hasn�t realized how hard I have tried.
I stare off at nothing as I try to think if there was anyone else I knew that I
was in regular contact with, quietly puffing at my cigarette. A shiver short
down my spine as a very lovely blue face came into mind. �Oh� Right. And ya Muthah
is terrifyin�. Seriously,
she scares the shit outta me, yo.�

I smirk and look back at him as he
freaks out at the image of me having sex with his mother which no doubt had
popped into his head. Yeah� That would totally never
happen, but it was worth daying for no more reason
than the reaction I got for it. �I vould really
razer not
think about my Mozher like zhat,
danke*�� I snicker softly as he shakes his head to
rid himself of the image before speaking again. �But� You, um� Like� Guys�?�

�Yeah!� I laugh again at the thought. It�s not like I try to hide
it. I mean, I don�t go and flaunt my sexuality at people, but I still like to
sit �too close� to lance when I get the chance. Then there�s the fact I sit on
Fred�s shoulder all the time, or when I set on the back of the couch just so my
legs hang right up against someone. Hell there was even a time that Lance sat
down and let me put my legs over his shoulder as we watched T.V.!� Well� I guess Kurt wasn�t there to see some
of those, but still. �I�ve known sense I was thirteen, yo.
All th� better I guess, betters my odds of not dyin� alone, ya know? What about
you?� Talking about my own sexuality got me curious about Fuzzy�s
here. He seemed to only go after girls from what I�ve seen, but some of the
things he does doesn�t exactly confirm his �straightness�. Maybe he�s metrosexual or something�

�O-of
course not! Vhy vould
I?!� Whoa� There was a lot more fear in that yelp of an answer than
there needed to be� I slowly smirk as I let this sink in. Either Kurt was
homophobic, which I doubt with as open minded as he generally was or I was very
mistaken about Kurt being straight.

�No kiddin�?
Straight as an arrow? Why don� I believe ya?� I murmur, deciding it was time to test and see which
one it was. I shift so I can lean in closer, watching the panic rise within
him. This was just way too much fun!

�J-Ja*�
Straight�� He weakly tries to convince me, further confirming that I had been
mistaken about his sexuality. The panic had a firm grip on him now it seemed.
If I push a little harder, I might get my answer. I doubt it though� This isn�t
something that many guys will admit to if they�re not ready.

�Yeah� Right.�� I flick what was left of my cigarette away,
shuffling right up next to him now. Closing the distance between us is going to
really put him on the spot� Let�s see if I can�t get him to brake� �So! Ya evah �ad a crush on a guy?�

�Nein*!� He yelps out, looking like he might die of fear. He
couldn�t possibly be straight with how panicked he was� It would have turned to
anger instead at this point! This was a secret Kurt didn�t want out, that much
was obvious.

�Who was it?� I prod again, ignoring the answer I had been given. I can feel his
unusually hot breath brushing my lips as well as smell the mint on his breath.
The urge to steal a kiss hit me, but I reined it in for now.

�I-I�� He stutters badly the pale
cheeks of his holo quickly starting to tint red. I
wonder if the blush is out of embarrassment or because of how close we are�

�Well�?� I lean in even closer now,
our noses almost bumping now. There�s that urge to steal a kiss again� Maybe if
he doesn�t answer, I�ll at least get that much out of him as punishment for
holding out on me�

A hot sigh puffs out against my face
before, surprisingly, my answer finally came. �Scott��

I blink my large eyes, truly not
having expected him to cave. Was the thought of me kissing him really that bad?
And why Scott of all people?! �Fuck, does everyone have a crush on that
guy? I guess I can see what you see in �im, but shit,
yo� You can do better than that.� One Eye had saved
me from a beating in the past so I guess he can be nice enough, but at the same
time he can be so full of himself! And what�s with that crazy car fetish of
his? Besides, he�s so obsessed with Red that he�d never notice anyone else
unless they resort to kicking him in the balls� Or threaten to scratch the
paint of his car�

��You can do better�? Zhat�s all you have to say?� He asks in shock. Was there
something more that needed to be said?

�Yeah,
why? I mean, I�m bi too,
I can�t really make fun of you for it, yo. Well, I
guess I could, but I�d be makin� fun of myself too,
so that would be kinda stupid, ya
know?� I shrug lightly as I settle back down into a sit, giving him a little
distance again.

�I�m not bi�� He mutters suddenly,
looking down at the ground, his hidden blue ears drooping enough for his holo to just make it noticeable. That�s unusual� And why
would he suddenly deny being bi after having admitted a crush on a guy?

�Dude, you�re not a very convincing
straight guy if you had a crush on th�
Boy Scout�� I roll my eyes as I point out the obvious, wondering why Fuzzy felt
the need to try to cover it up all over again.

�You don�t understand� I�m� Vell...� He stutters, curling himself up so he could hug
his own legs. What don�t I understand?! �I�m n-not straight eizher��

�Th� Hell
you talkin� ab�� Wait� Oh.
OH! I look over to him in shock as the information he�s given me falls into
place and finally makes sense. �You�re gay�� He hides his face from me, not
saying a word. Fuck, who would of thunk it�? Fuzzy�s been desperately trying to get with girls to hide
the fact he was gay. Poor guy� That�s terrible. I�m surprised he�d tell me
something like this with as much as it seems to be tearing him apart. A smile
slightly to myself as I remember what a hard time I had when I first came out
of the closet. No need for Kurt to feel the same solitude and utter loneliness
I felt. I chuckle softly as I notice he�s peeking out at me as if expecting me
to insult him. I wonder what he would do if� Before I can stop curiosity, I�m
crouched again, leaning in close. My webbed hand cups the back of his head
lightly as I press a kiss there. As a second thought to lighten the mood, I
ruffle his deep blue hair as I speak. �I�m sure you�ll find a great boyfriend
someday.� That said, I stand up and start to walk away, waving lightly over my
shoulder.� �See ya
later, Fuzzy.� I crouch before leaping away, quickly heading back towards the
school.

The rest of the day is uneventful
really, but� I don�t know� Even when we all pile into Lance�s jeep and go home,
I still feel better than I did this morning. I hop of the jeep and head inside,
going straight to my room. I don�t really want to bump into Wanda again so my
room is the safest place� I look at myself in the mirror for a moment,
smoothing down my hair feebly. It�s been a while sense I actually cared about
my looks� Not sense Wanda first came to live with us. I wonder if things are
going to change�
