Chapter 1
The sun beat down harshly over the campus grounds, forcing most of its residents inside on an unusually warm, late-August afternoon. The only mercy shown for the two mutants outside was the protection of a large, shady, oak tree farther out and away from the courtyard.
Under it, you and Kurt layed down; your back up against a curved up root, and his head laying in your lap.
"Hätt` einer auch fast mehr Verstand."
"Als wie die drei Weisen aus dem Morgenland."
He read aloud from a book you didn't recognize in a language you hadn't a clue to speak correctly. Not that it stopped you from humming to the sound.
"und ließe sich dünken, er wäre wohl nie."
"Hmm.." You stroked his pitch black curls-soft and fuzzy in between your nails.
"dem Sternlein nachgereist," He continued, and you sighed. "wie sie; dennoch, wenn nun das Weihnachtsfest"
The words entralled you; the way his tone would heighten and lower spanning into a uncanny pattern across his syllables, or the sharp intakes of breath when pronouncing a vowel and quick slips of the tongue for more prominent words in a sentence; it all made the language seem much more mystical and memorizing.
"seine Lichtlein wonniglich scheinen läßt,"
You sighed deeply, eyes closed and heart beat lowered. The warmth peeking out from behind the willow leaves comforted you. The harsh rustling in your veins that never ceased, no matter the circumstance, was in a rare state of calm-one the Professor was in the middle of trying to help you with, less any horrific damages occurred.
But for now, it was at least sedated-a constant thrumming of electrical currents just under the surface of your human flesh. Indeed, everything was perfect.
"fällt auch auf sein verständig Gesicht, er mag es merken od-..." He paused. "Are jou falling asleep?" His accented english gave way to a playful cheekiness.
Your smile grew immensely, and you finally allowed your eyes to flutter open, blinking heavily in order to once again be used to your shaded sanctuary being poked through rays of sunlight.
E/c met a brilliant gold.
"No..." You muttered, only to give way to a yawn immediately afterwords. Kurt sat himself up, proficiently moving his head away from your hands-which you couldn't help but pout at.
He quirked an eye. "And vhy do I not believe jou?" The blue-skinned mutant took up seating beside you on the tree root.
You took this oppurtunity to nuzzle softly into his neck.
"I don't know." You murmured with a chuckle. "And here I thought you trusted me."
Your remark was obviously sarcastic, but Kurt still removed himself anyway, concerned with looking you in the eye to make sure you were only joking. Luckily he took your continued chuckling as truth and returned the sentiment by pressing his lips to yours.
When his lips met yours, those volts strumming down your veins began sparking inside you, but you made quick work to force them back down. The last thing you needed to do was accidentally electricute your boyfriend.
You finally pulled away, but kept your head pressed up to him.
"Ich liebe dich." He muttered, almost a whisper, like a promise he only desired for your ears alone.
That sweet, airy lightness of joy filled your chest, so that you could only give out a deep nervous breath before answering. But when you did, you made sure to move your lips towards his ear-you know, just to make sure he'd hear you. "I love you too." You kissed the side of his face, before reaching his eyes again. "So much."
You went back to nuzzling his neck, gratified with the sweet sound of a purr-something you had only recently found out that your beloved did when in this state of physical attention.
It only got better when you began to place small kitten kisses around the collarbone and up towards the chin. No matter how many times you two were together, you would never be tired of that quick tenseness in his shoulders, or the adorable little gasp of surprise Kurt had-as if he didn't expect you to do something like this when you two were alone.
Then he'd relax into your touch. You could feel the smooth coil of his tail at your calf, rubbing up and down your leg, the way a cat would claim its favorite human.
"Liebe..." You could feel him rub his face into your hair, no doubt tangled from laying up against tree bark for so long. Kurt's tail had moved up to your waist making you shiver and once again focus on controlling that spazzing heat vibrating inside you.
"Read to me." You asked, placing a few more kisses in the special spot right above the collarbone, giving way to another cute gasp from him.
"I don't understand jou're...hmm.." You gave a little nibble, stopping his train of thought for a moment.
"...jou're fascination with my reading liebe...jou don't understand vhat I'm saying vhen I do." He spoke quickly before your administrations could distract the sentence further.
"True." You gave one last kiss before pulling away, and pulling a needy whine from Kurt in the process. "But that doesn't mean I don't love to listen." You stated, straying a hand towards his arm. "I happen to find your native tongue beautiful." You gave your fingers a spider walk up his arms.
"Y/N?" Kurt asked concerned.
"Yes." You batted your eyes innocently-letting the spider crawl that was your hand, continue its journey to his shoulder.
"Vhat are yo-AH he, he...heh HA HA HA."
A few weeks prior you found out your favorite mutant had a ticklish neck; a fact the dear young man seemed to always forget about whenever you were with him. Not like you wouldn't mind reminding him from time to time. "HA, HA, Ha...Y-Y/N!" At this point you had already allowed your hand the assistance of its partner, and you had proceeded to practically straddle Kurt in the process. His sounds of laughter made you follow note and giggle along-though yours could be considered much more voluntary.
"Yes sweetie?" You giggled, letting your fingers dance across his neck in a delicate fashion-you just had to make sure any voltage wasn't trying to break out.
BAMF
*Oh no* You thought.
BAMF
"Liebe." His mouth was now right next to your ear, you could see the shadow of his body behind you, a shade within the shade. You cleared your throat with a nervous chuckle in return.
"Yes Kurt, sweetio-H-AH HA, HA, HA, HA!" You bolted out into laughter at the sensation of six large fingers trailing up and down your stomach in untraceable patterns.
"I'm sorry." Kurt mumbled with fake sympathy behind a hearty laugh. "I can't understand jou Y/N." You in turn could only keep laughing and laughing until tears were flooding your eyes from the sensation. You tried focusing on Kurt's laughter, the joy you gave him in this moment, but you could already feel the energy pilling up, tiny pin pricks of restraint not withstanding, sharp, hot, sparks-to your complete horror met the surface. "St-StO HA, HA-P! KURT!"
Suddenly his hands were off you and you could breathe again. You took big gulps of air and focused on forcing the electricity back inside; you sealed it up the moment you had the chance to put together your thoughts coherently.
Your eyes widened, and a pit began forming when your turned to look at Kurt. "Are you okay?!" You demanded. "Did-did I hurt you?"
Kurt shook his hand, and made his way towards you. "No, no it wasn't like that." He reached a hand for yours but you flinched away. "I saw a sparking around your palm. I didn't mean to make you lose control like that."
"You're not hurt?" He smiled and shook his head again. "Not even a scratch." He showed his hands. "See. You have much more control over them than you care to admit." Kurt put an arms behind his neck. "Though it vas my fault." He grinned. "You just look so cute when you laugh."
You perked up and gave him a weak smile.
*You almost hurt him.* *He' s okay.* *By luck.* *It doesn't matter.* *Yes it does*
His cheeks were already in a deep lavender with blush.
*No. He's okay, he loves me, I'm getting better.*
You grabbed his hand to pull his up on his feet with you. "C'mon. If we stay too much longer Jean will have our heads." Kurt looking concerned. "Are jou sure jour okay." The response he got was a kiss on the cheek.
"Does that answer the question?" You quirked an eye. Kurt's smile immediately returned. "Maybe..." He drawled. "Perhaps extra convincing is needed." A large laugh bubbled out of you and of course, you seceded with an added peck to his lips.
He in turn pulled you close and in a matter of seconds your senses were flooded in a wave of blues and red drenched in the smell of sulfur.
