Everyone thought she was going to be hurt by Pete. He was a roguish character, and many couldn't see how someone gentle like Kitty could have fallen for him. It was a simple encounter.

She was walking to a restaurant; all the members of Excalibur eating out that night. She stopped, about to put her parcel down to open the door when Pete, grinning at her opened the door and said in his charming British accent, "Ladies first."

She looked up at him, a blushing lightly and entered the restaurant. She found that being treated like a lady, not a Comrade, was nice once in a while.
