"Alright Kurt. It's time." Scott says as they stand looking at Kurt in the mirror. Kurt had really tried to look good for this. He fixed his hair and wore some clothes that Peter and Scott had picked out which were then approved by Jubilee and Jean. "Remember, it's just movie night. So be cool about this." Scott says. "Right, like you've ever been cool, Hot Head." Peter says with a scoff. "Say that again. I dare you, Old Man." Scott says, referring to Peter's silver hair. "Hey, don't diss the silver, I think it's pretty cool."
"Really, it's as cool as when-"
"Can ve vocus vor a second. Bitte. I need to go. Zo give me your vinal opinions." Kurt wore a pair of blue jeans, his red Thriller jacket, and a solid black shirt. The two boys looked at him and nodded in agreement. "You look cool dude. Now go slay her." Peter says, pushing Kurt out the door. "Ah, vait!" Kurt tries to get back inside but sighs when he can't open the door, and he can already hear Peter laughing about him wussing out. "Alvight. You can do zhis Vagner." He takes a deep breath and bamfs to her door.
Knocking softly, Ginny comes to the door and smiles. "Hello Mr. Wagner. What brings you here so late?" Kurt's face lights up like a Christmas tree. "I-I vanted to invite you to- vell- my friends and I, ve're, um. Moving a vatch. I mean, ve're catching a movie." She giggles. "That sounds fun. Am I invited?" She asks, asking what Kurt seemed to be struggling with. "Uh, ja. Vould you?" She outstretched her hand to him. "If you'll lead the way, I'd love to." Kurt takes her cold hand and pulls her closer. "H-hold on, alvight?" she lifts an eyebrow but encircles her strong arms around him as asked.
In a flash they were in the lounge area of the house, where Scott, Jubilee, Peter, and Jean were debating on a movie to watch. "Hallo everyone." Kurt says, pulling the hesitate Ginny towards the gaggle of teens. "This ez Ginny." He gestures to the double-haired girl. "Um, hi. It's lovely to meet all of you. Um, you don't have to introduce yourselves, I already know all of you." She went around the circle, shaking each of their hands and saying their names until she got to Jean. "And you must be Jean Grey." She extends her hand but Jean doesn't take it. "I can't read your mind." She says bluntly. "I-I'm sorry?" Ginny awkwardly retracts her hand.
"I can read everyone's mind, but not yours, and that's... troubling." Her eyes narrow. "Jean-" Scott tries to say something but Jean cuts him off. "No, Scott, it's not right. I know what each of us are thinking. Jubilee is thinking of lipgloss, Peter is thinking about whether or not we should watch Carrie or Grease, Kurt's angry I'm saying this, and you're trying to decided if I'm jealous of her. I can read everyone, except her and I want an explanation." The room goes silent.
"When I was little, I suffered from some head trauma, and they put some plates in my head so my brain wouldn't leak out my ears. So not even the Professor can read my mind." Ginny says, her smile never wavering. Everyone's eyes and mouths go wide. "So." Ginny turns away from Jean to face to others. "Personally, I think we should watch Carrie. I think a creeper would best accompany our current mutant standings. Considering the plot and all." Glances bounced all over the room. "Uh, sure." Jubilee says, nudging Peter. "Peter, put that one in." He nods and everyone finds a place to sit. Jubilee taking the floor, Peter in the recliner, and Scott, Jean, Kurt, and Ginny sharing the couch.
Midway through the movie Jean was curled up against Scott for protection, just in case, while Kurt was still a foot away from an undisturbed Ginny. Taking a gulp of air, Kurt scooted closer to her and whispered, "You can vean on me if you get-" Ginny shakes her head. "I don't scare easy, but if you'd like, you may rest your head on my lap, it is getting late after all." Even if it wasn't the situation Kurt had hoped for, it was better than nothing, and it got twenty times better when she started to play with his hair.
Kurt didn't really know when he'd fallen asleep, but he did know that when he woke up he was still in Ginny's lap with her playing with his hair. "You're awake." She says, looking down at him. "Ja," he sits up and stretches. "Vhat time is it?" He asks. "Five in the morning." She says as she looks at the clock beside them. "Did you get any zeep?" She nods. "Of course. I feel as well rested as ever, maybe even better. Anyway, all, your friends are gone. I think they left after the movie or maybe went to get early breakfast." Kurt nods while rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. "Breakfast zounds zo good vight now." Ginny giggles. "Well, I'll leave you to that." She says as she stands. "Vhat? You're not coming vith me?" She shakes her head no. "I have an early evaluation today. But I'll see you later right? And maybe we can do this again?" Kurt nods. "Ove course." She giggles and makes her way to her room.
This went on for at least another week. Kurt would show up during his free time, talk with her, and learn something new about her, or watch a movie with her. Until he finally decided he wanted to ask her out, and take her off campus. "I say you just go for it, guns blazing." Peter says. "Right. Very romantic, Casanova." Jubilee says with a roll of her eyes. "Oh! I've got an idea!" Jean says. "Why don't we just invite her to the mall with us." Kurt smiles. It was nice to see Jean warming up to Ginny. "I get It. That way it's a date but if things go south Kurt will have us to help him out. Sounds good to me." Scott says while patting Kurt's shoulder. Everyone nods in agreement. "Okay," Peter says with a sigh. "But I still say you should give her some kind of bang to really woo her." Everyone rolls their eyes before they shove Kurt onto his mission of love.
He cautiously opens the steel door and starts off their conversation like he'd normally would by asking her whatever question was on his mind followed by him figuring out something new. Like how her favorite color was whatever the sky was at that time of day, or what living with her aunt was like, but the most important thing he learned was how her bangs had turned green.
