It All Started That One Day~ A Peter Maximoff Fanfiction

You Didn't Tell Me

• So instead of having ten years in between Days of Future past and Apocalypse I've made it five months for storyline purposes, and Peter, Kaitlyn, Jean, Scott, Kurt, and Ororo are all sixteen.

Kaitlyn's POV

It has been five months since I last saw him, five months that I've kept this a secret, five month since I last saw the welcome mat with the burn mark and I still don't know what happened to it. Everyday I walked towards his house, but I haven't ever made it this far. Now that I'm standing here all I want to do is run because there had to be a reason for why he broke up with me after two years. He obviously didn't want me around, and if he didn't want me then he wouldn't want our child.

With a sigh I pathetically glance one last time at the door before spinning on my heel ready to leave. randomly the door is thrown open a gust of wind nearly knocking me over, and I turn around ready to yell at the idiot who was stupid enough to throw it open that quickly. Instead I am met with the face of the guy who I truly love but will never return it. His pale face reads an expression of shock as he stops mid step. "Kaitlyn?" He lightly gasps stepping towards me, and it takes all of my will power not to step away. "So its Kaitlyn now?" I ask half jokingly, but I can't help the bitterness that slips out. "It's always been Kaitlyn" He chuckles halfheartedly staring down at his usual sliver sneakers.

We both pause scared of what to say, so I take this as my chance to peek at him. The first thing I notice is that he got his hair cut. Its no longer his usual shoulder length silver hair instead it is parted to the side and seems to be a darker silver. It makes him look much older, and I wonders how he changed so much in five months. Other than that he's still wearing his usual flashy jeans and jacket, but with goggles which is new. I stare into his dark gray.eyes getting lost in the deep pool, but I feel him stare into my own lighter blue ones and neither one of us can seem to pull away.

Something jolts within him though and he rips his gaze away to stare at his shoe aas he scuffs the ground. "What are you doing here?" He asks dryly still avoiding my gaze as if he's afraid of me. "I came to see you" I finally whisper after awhile of disbelief on how harsh and careless his words seem. He finally looks up horror crossing his face "I thought I told you..."

He's interrupted by the whirling of helicopters and a booming voice that echos throughout the neighborhood. "Peter Maximoff come with us or we will open fire" the demand sends a chill down my spine as I look to Peter for an explanation or reassurance. I'm not sure which one but I just need something here. "Shit" he mumbles before he grabs me by the neck and back without hesitation. "Peter what are..." my voice is drained out by whatever is happening, and a minute later we are in front of an old school. "Peter what the hell" I shout freaking out about the growing bean inside me. "Excuse me I just saved our lives" he retorts back and I roll my eyes because he's oblivious. I mean I know I'm not quite showing yet but still.

I groan lightly walking away a few steps to get some air since he was still holding my back, and the familiar feeling makes me sick. "You didn't answer my question. What. was. that?"I shriek turning back around my face probably in flames as Peter shrinks down a look of regret crossing his face. "I should probably start from the beginning" he sighs walking over to me and interlocking our hands, but I pull away completely confused by his mixed messages.

"When I was twelve my powers came in... I'm not sure what happened all I remember is that I was running around in my backyard and I couldn't stop. Carl was the first to see me and the first words out his mouth were..." He stops looking down at his hands as if he's scarred whatever Carl said to him was true, and I join him to see that his hands are shaking but not normally in fact they're more like vibrating. He gulps taking a shaky breath before continuing. "He said I was a monster, a freak of nature, and after that day he would threaten me and abuse me. Once he even said I was just like my dad and back then it meant nothing but now it scares me. I never told my mom though worried of what would happen if I did."

"That is one of the reasons I never told you when we met because I was worried you would think the same of me that Carl did, but once I got to know you I knew you never would. The problem came in when people started to threaten mutants, and if you would have known then you would have had a target on your back and I didn't want that. However these three guys came to me asking me to help them with a jail break, and once I found out where I was breaking into I knew they were going to find out who I was because there was no way of preventing it, so I decided to end things with you hoping to keep you out of this life but..." He trails off again gazing into my icy blues eyes with so much emotion all I want to do is hold him. For some reason I don't though.

"Peter what jail did you break into to cause helicopters to land in your front yard?" I ask even though I know I don't want to know. He pulls his gaze away probably for the hundredth time today. "I broke Magneto out of the Pentagon" He whispers to the point were I barely hear it, but I do and all I want to do is erase my mind so I never heard it. "You did what?" I shriek clutching his shoulders with more concern than worry. "Granted I didn't know who he was, but that's not the end of the story" he attempts his cheeky smile that always makes me swoon, but I'm to deep in my own thoughts to notice.

When I don't answer but continue to clutch onto his shoulders for dear life he decides to take that as a cue to finish. "He's my dad" he says more confidently than he has said anything else, and though I shouldn't I choke on absolutely nothing because my ex is the son of a terrorist. "Your dad is a... a terrorist" I stutter looking into his eyes for any sign of his teasing. Instead he drops his head in his hands with a light groan "I think there's something good inside him" he whispers only half convinced making me scoff, but he returns the gesture with a glare making me shut up.

"Yes everything he has done was wrong, but I know he did it for people like me so we can survive. Yes he did it completely wrong but he's my dad and there is something pulling me towards him." his voice is stone cold but he's looking into my eyes with so much love that I know I made the right choice to come back. "I know your real dad was never there, but Carl wasn't..."

"Carl is not and will never be my dad" he shouts and I swear a few tears slip from his eyes "And no one can be a worse father than that son of a bitch." This time a few stray tears do slip, and this time I do pull him into a tight hug because not only does he need it I need it to. "I know he has done so many wrong things, but I am not judging him until I hear the full story from him, and maybe even Charles." This time I don't question it instead I nod into his shoulder my arms still tightly woven around his neck because I have missed his strong form holding me tightly against him like this is our last day to live.

"I'll be back" he blurts staring out over my shoulder before zooming off. Is it just me or does the super speed make him like ten times more attractive. I run up the gravel path as I see Peter zooming in and out of the building with different people in his arms, and by the time I'm up there I see everyone staring at him with wide grateful eyes. He is speaking with a man when I finally catch up, man super speed would be dandy. "Peter" I huff as I lean up against his much taller form. I open my mouth to make a snarky retort that I know would make him laugh, but the man cuts me off.

"Who are you?" he asks taking a step closer urging the younger children to back up as if I am some kind of threat. Is this how all mutants live when it comes to humans? Peter looks to me as if to urge me on, but I am completely frozen this time because what am I supposed to say. Hi I'm Peter's pregnant ex girlfriend. He must notice my lost in time look that he has to have come to recognize because he starts sputtering off nonsense for me.

"She's my girl... I mean we just... Or we are... She's with me" he finally settles for looking to me sheepishly. If they're not okay with me being here they don't say anything instead they turn to the blue woman who I recognize as Mystique. I blush when I feel Peter rest his head on my shoulder his arms wrapping around my waist. "We're gonna have to talk about that later" he whispers his hot breath tickling the hairs on my neck sending a shiver down my back. He knows what he does to me because I see his smirk he sends me from the corner of my eye. "I missed you" I whisper a glowing feeling growing in my stomach. "I missed you too" he mumbles against my hair making me blush a deep crimson.

I'm so caught up in the moment I forget to mention the small bundle growing inside me, and I forget about everything Peter just confessed to me, and most importantly neither one of us notice the landing helicopters blaring robotic voices similar to the one we heard earlier at his house.
