Kurt smiled slightly as he waved to the kids. He slipped over to the otherside of the car and opened the door for Wanda out of simple habit. "Vell, maybe soon the vorld vill be ready to see it," he said with a slight smile.

Wanda smiled and slipped into the car. "Yeah, well, I wouldn't hold my breathe waiting for maybes," she murmured. "Sometimes you just have to forget what everyone else thinks."

Kurt smiled and shut the door gently after Wanda had slipped in. He walked over to the other side and opened the door for himself. "Vell it vill happen. It has to," he said optimistically before he put the keys in the ignition and started the car. He looked behind him as he started to back out in reverse.

Wanda smiled slightly, buckling her seat belt. "Eventually. Maybe not in our lifetime, though," she murmured. "Hopefully, in theirs," she nodded towards the boys in the back.

Kurt nodded as he finished backing out. He put the car into drive, but buckled his seat belt just before taking his foot off of the break. He straightened the wheel before easing up on the break and putting his foot on the gas. "Not hopefully, it vill happen."

Wanda smiled slightly, leaning back against her seat back. "It's nice," she murmured. "That you're so optimistic... I don't think I could be."

"Vell, looking on the bright side tends to keep me from thinking about vhy I should be a pessimist," he said with a shrug as they turned out of the parking lot. "And it's not as hard as it looks. It's quite easy... I just happen to make it into an art," he added with a laugh.

She shrugged slightly and ran her hand through her hair. "I dunno... I don't think I could be an optimist. It's... hard. Maybe it's because of the asylum... or, I don't know. Growing up with Magneto. The Brotherhood. All of it just stops the optimist right out of a person."

Kurt laughed. "Vell, maybe the optimist in you vill be reavakened at some point," he said with a smile. "You never know. There could be an optimistic Vanda just vaiting to come out," he said jokingly as he came to a stop at a red light. "You haf the rest of your life to live after all."
He wasn't going to lie and say his heart didn't sink a bit at the mention of the asylum. After all, he wasn't made aware of that part of Wanda's history until not too long ago. It was the same way with the testing too. "I can't say I know how it feels, but I can say that I vould understand not being an optimist vith those situations."

Wanda smiled a little bitterly and looked over at Kurt. "You're lucky you don't know it feels," she murmured. Shrugging slightly, she looked out at the window. "And you're lucky you can be an optimist still."

"I am sorry you do," he said quietly with a sympathetic gaze over at the Scarlet Witch before looking back onto the road. "Trust me, if I could svitch places so you vouldn't haf to go through that, I vould," he said with a slight sigh in his voice as the light turned green and he went.

She shook her head slightly. "I wouldn't let you or anyone else do it," she murmured softly. "Nobody deserves that kind of hell."

Kurt put a hand on Wanda's shoulder briefly to provide some form of comfort (which he assumed was quite weak). "Ja I guess," he said quietly. Not even you, he thought to himself.

Wanda smiled weakly, looking over at Kurt again. "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?" she asked softly. "Besides, it's getting better..."

"Right," Kurt said with a grin. "See? You're becomming optimistic already," he teased with a smile.

"It's not optimisim so much as a coping mechanism," Wanda admitted, smiling back.

Kurt laughed. "You say tomato I say tomahto," Kurt said with a smirk as he took his hand from Wanda's shoulder.

Wanda shrugged slightly, leaning against the door with one shoulder pressed against the window. "I guess you have a point."

Kurt let out a slight sigh as he went back to driving. This time around, he stayed quiet. He did not, after all, want to pry into something he should stay out of or say the wrong thing.

Wanda fell silent, alternating before looking at the back seat and looking out the window. The twins seemed to have fallen asleep, and she was glad for that.

"The boys asleep?" Kurt asked, finally breaking the silence.

"Yeah," Wanda nodded slightly, looking over at him.

Kurt nodded as he went back to his driving, again, in silence. He couldn't think of anything else to say at this point. After all, it was hard to make light of Wanda's situation. Nor did he have the courage to since he didn't want to anger the Scarlet Witch.

Wanda rubbed her arm self-conciously, looking over at Kurt before looking back out the window. "Do you think the others are going to freak out if I stay?"

Kurt smile slightly as his eyes shifted to look over at Wanda. "I don't know... they might for like a day or so... but then everything vill be fine. After all, we vere fine vhen Rogue moved in."
