Yes I'm in a frenzy, darn one shots! Ah well suffer with me!

Rogue sat at the edge of the woods of the mansion that almost reached the highway. It was time for her to move on. Her hand held the bracelet that had been the key to her finally being able to manifest the desire that had filled her heart since she had first met him. When Dr. McCoy had presented to her the gift she had been filled with joy and now her mind was full of memories that would keep her hoping that perhaps love would cross her way someday though not in the same package as before.
Professor Xavier had asked her and Scott to go to the Caribbean to recruit a young girl who had just appeared on Cerebro. When they arrived, they had become completely enthralled with the beauty of the islands and had asked to stay an extra day or two to enjoy the surroundings. Though against his good nature, Professor Xavier allowed them another day, knowing that they would probably never have the chance again.
They recruited the girl from the orphanage and set her up in the joint bedroom between hers and Scott's room. The girl had fallen asleep quickly on the huge bed after taking a much needed shower and Rogue touched the girl's sweet, chunky face before going to Scott's room to watch some television.
The wind blew through the open balcony door and stirred her hair as she walked in and closed the door behind her. She took in a breath and smelled the salty sea and wished she didn't need to go back. Embarrassed, she noticed Scott look at her and smile, and her heart quickened its beat.
He was with Jean, and she knew it but she couldn't help but respond that way. Her mind raced over everything that had occurred between them, their deep friendship and his ever trusting nature. She knew he loved her, but only in his way and she knew he would not be able to care about her the way she loved him.
The television was off and he was seated on the edge of the bed. She knew that that was the only chance she had with him and she made up her mind. He would either reject her in disgust or fear or he would take what she was willingly giving him. She knew and accepted what the end result would be and she would give anything for that one moment.
She wasn't dressed for the occasion, instead wearing a dark red tank top with black sweats and the blood red bracelet that held the key to her touch. She walked over to him and stood before him. His head turned up to her and he opened his mouth to speak, but she covered his lips with her fingertips.
"I love you," she whispered and leaned down to kiss him. He hesitantly put his hand behind her head and pulled her close to him, seeming to understand. They kissed each other, their tongue's entwining. He moved further behind the bed and she followed him. There he slowly took off the articles of clothing covering her delicately built body. She followed his lead until they were both free from separations.
He looked into her eyes about to speak again but she knew what he was saying. She merely kissed his lips and his unspoken words flowed into her mind, not because of her power, but just because. That evening their love was physically consummated, a love that was so strong that it shook every force of their being. Every taste, feeling and action was burned into their memories, and they would forever look back at it and smile at the friendship that would stand the test of time.
They had given to each other the gift that they had held, wanting only to share with someone special and it bonded them more then any couple can have. They made love till dawn where they fell asleep in each other's arms and were awoken with the soft music of the plaza that stirred Scott in his sleep. He looked at the sleeping beauty in his arms and felt another stir of desire but the night before had been pure and he refused to ruin it with his lust.
They left the beautiful island in happiness and arrived at the institute a little later in the afternoon. Everyone noticed the difference between them, but not even the Professor could pinpoint what had happened. It was something that they would guard in their hearts forever.
When evening came Scott marched up to Rogue and Kitty's room to speak to her but when he opened the door it was empty. He didn't know what had happened but a note on the bed drew his attention. He picked it up and after he read it, he kissed it and went to his room, to hide it within the most important things in his life. His extra glasses (his window to the world), his first picture with Xavier and Jean at the institute (his rescue) and now the note that would forever remind him of the deepest love he would ever be able to feel.
Rogue took in a deep breath before remembering what she had written to Scott. 'Thank you'. Nothing more was needed to say, he knew her feelings already. She dropped the bracelet in the grass before making her way to the highway and holding out her arm, ready to begin her new life.
