The Countdown Begins
It was less than two short months away until Saturnalia and Christmas and that meant Cait had to start getting gifts for her family. Thankfully the family combined both holidays to make the gift buying easier on everyone, but it was still tough. Cait had very little money as always, so she had to get inventive and make her own gifts.

She knew the perfect thing for Corey, she just didn't really have the skills to make it. It was down to bribing someone to help her. Cait knew the perfect person.

Humming and armed with a plate of freshly baked cookies, she went hunting for His Royal Highness.

"Well, because...well it's me. The tomboy. The one who gets into mud fights with her brother. The one usually wet or covered in mud. A big formal bash isn't me."

"All right, all right, you just have to say no." He grabbed another cookie and leaned back on the bed. "Maybe Winter Guard has a JV team somewhere that can spare a girl for the weekend."

Cait shook her head. "No, I'll do it. I'm the one asking you for a favor and it's only right I do one for you." Corey better appreciate this gift. Otherwise she'd dunk the twerp into the lake in the middle of winter.

Now she just had to figure out where to get a dress to wear.

"It won't be so bad, I promise. The bonus is that you know me well enough that any change will be noticed. Mom will probably take you shopping. It's not as scary as it sounds."

The next cookie on the plate looked lonely, so he put it out of its misery. "I'll owe you big."

"Are you sure? If I have to take you down I'd have to use my powers and...well will they be okay with a mutant among them? Then I'd be facing charges for assaulting you."

Cait wasn't too intimidated by the prospect of going shopping with Misha's mom. Really. Okay, she was. She had spoken to Mrs. Stark on a few occasions and the woman didn't seem that frightening.

"They've got a mutant among them and already know it. Which is why the Kremlin is probably bouncing for joy at Mikhail is getting married. Less chance for me to end up on the throne if he starts breeding fast."

"Well for what it's worth, you'd make a good tsar. But what if I get arrested for assaulting you? Do I get a 'get out of jail free' card? Or I spend the rest of my life in a Russian prison?" She was mostly teasing, but she did have to think about all possibilities.

He closed his eyes and he swallowed hard. "My mother will make sure nothing happens to you if it came down to that. Xavier's working with me, but I worry that he won't be able to disarm the trigger in my head. You'll be my back up."

"I'm sorry. I was joking, but it wasn't a very good joke. I'm sorry you had to go through that, but if anyone can help you, it'd be the Professor."

Misha nodded. "He's trying. At the least, you'll get a trip to Russia and your picture in the media. It's worth being seen with me to get inside the royal palace, right?"

Cait smiled. "Yes, but it's worth going just to hang out with a friend. Thank you so much. I couldn't get the twerp something for the holidays without out."

Cait nodded. "Literal royal pain," she grinned. "I should be able to get the building supplies this weekend. Then we can get started. Thank you again. I really appreciate it."

"No problem." He rolled off the bed and onto his feet. "Spending the weekend at my mom's. If all goes well, I'll be back Sunday night. If not, I'll be in one of the detention rooms in the sub-basement here."

"Everything will go well," she assured him. "You're too nice of a guy to hurt anyone you care about."

"Thanks." He squeezed her shoulder and reached for another cookie. "These are great."

"You're welcome." She blushed. "Thanks. Here, these all are for you." She offered him the plate with the rest of the cookies on them.

"I'll see you Sunday evening then and we'll go over what you bought." He kissed her cheek in thanks for the cookies and swiped up his bag.

"It sounds like a plan," she said with a smile. "Have a good time at your mom's." A pause. "Don't give your sister too hard of a time." She smiled again. "See you later." She disappeared out the door.
