Don't own it!

Thanks for all the reviews and sorry it took so long.

Ch. 12 - Goodbyes.

School started tomorrow. That was a fact Rogue wished wasn't true. All the students had returned and some new faces were added as well. The weather hadn't turned very cold yet and Rogue was on the bridge reading a book. Out of the corner of her eye she saw someone coming up behind her.

"What do ya want?"

She asked without looking up. Darren stood next to her and looked over her shoulder.

"Noth'in, what ya read'in?

"A book."

"I figured that much, what's it about?"

"A girl who goes crazy and kills her boyfriend cause he asks her too many questions."

"Ha ha, very funny."

She put her book down and turned to Darren. She brushed some hair out of his eyes and tapped his nose.

"What are ya doing here furball?"

"I'm going to be gone for a couple of months, me and the others have to take care of something's in Japan for Magneto."

She stared at him for a moment and then pulled her gloves off.

"How long are you gonna be gone?"

"Two or three months at least."

She grinned and ran her hands down his arm and nuzzled the crook of his neck. He ran his hands through her hair and kissed the side of her face. She started to remove his coat when a helicopter could be heard overhead. They looked up and saw John throw a rope out the side of the copter and motion for Darren to take it and to hurry up.

"Hay Rogue, how's it been?"

He yelled down as Darren re-adjusted his coat.

"It was go'in great, thanks a lot John."

John laughed at this and waited for Darren.

"We'll finish this later?"

He asked her as he prepared to climb the rope.

"Yea."

She kissed him and he took hold of the rope, he pulled a thorn less rose out of his pocket and handed it to her.

"I'll see you later and that's a promise."

She took the rose and smiled at him. She watched him climb the rope with ease and after the copter was gone she tucked the thorn less rose behind her ear and picked her book up. She walked home to the mansion smiling and school didn't seem so bad anymore.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I know its short but that's the best I could do for an ending. I'm taking a break from writing for a couple of weeks and I'll have the next part of the Rogue and Bobcat chronicles up when I get around to it.

Thanks for all the reviews, yall were great!
