chapter:5 embassressment and storys

The next morning

Rogue woke up the next morning lying against a soft warm form that was .....Pietro? She slightly blushed to herself. Thats when she realized his uncovered hand was wrapped gently around her waist.

'Oh mah gawd'

Rogue becoming panicked leaned closer to shake Pietro to see if he was okay. When her hand was just mere inches away from Pietros sleeping form, Pietro woke with a jolt causing Rogue to fall off the bed.

Thunk "Young people today." Lance told the others as he slowly shook his head.

The others silently nodded in agreement. "Pietro what in the hell do ya think your doing?"

"well Roguey its like this..."he explained the part where he found Rogue practically frozen solid in the abandoned church.

"Wow Silver! Ah never knew you cared." She whispered; still in awe from the story.

"I guess I ..kinda do Roguey.... so how come you keep running?"

"Well, Ah hope this doesn't sound stupid or anything but it all started with small things lahke Kitty taking mah stuff without permission. Then ...."

"Then-what-Roguey?? Come-on-you-cant-hide-anything-from-me! Especially-after-all-weve-been-through-together; surviving-the-wilderness-of-Antarctica-and-peguinhunting!"

"Speedy slow down. Ah was just getting to that till ya interupted with your talk of utter non sense! Okay. Anyways lahke Ah was saying"

(rogue slightly blushes)

.....she spoke in a low tone

"..Scott and Jean became an item."

"Ohhh....."

'I guess she doesn't feel the same way about me like I feel about her'

"Then Speedy, things kept getting worse; Kitty began taking more and more of mah things, and she even started to invade mah space, she was kinda like a Siamese twin....always there; Scott kinda changed...for the worse."

She paused,

"See Speedy he hit me....."

Rogue looked away so Pietro couldn't see the tears building n her emerald eyes.

".. then he went off about how Ahm not wanted or needed their....that Ah was an outsider n nothing could change that; he said they pitied me and that was the only reason they were trying to be nice."

Lance stood outside the bedroom door listening to their heart to heart conversation, it really was heart wrenching how the x-geeks abandoned one of their own. (especially his little sis)

'they are gonna pay for what they've done to her. Rogue is as good as those X-geeks,no....she was even better than them, far better.' Lance clenched his fists and slighty shoke the old unfortunate house.

He went outside to his parked jeep and started the engine. I guess great minds think alike because that was exactly what Pietro was thinking (well without the lil sis bit thou) They werent going to allow Roguey any more pain and suffering while they were still around.

"Roguey its okay. Im here for you. Trust me they wont hurt you anymore." The speedster said in an unnoramlly slow tone(for him atleast) and pulled rogue into a gentle hug. Rogue leaned against pietro as tears rolled down her face.....

"never again...." he mttured to himself, "never again............................."
