The roaring argument of Rogue and Gambit exploded from the kitchen. The argument pricked the ears of Logan, who was working on his bike on the paving outside the garages. He growled at the thought of another argument between the lovers – wondering why the hell Rogue hadn't dumped that stupid Cajun, Gambit, already.

"Mah gawd, Gambit!" Rogue yelled, punching a hole through the wall. "Ah'm leavin'!"

She skidded out of the kitchen, her body shaking and tears fleeing down her face as soon as her back was turned to Gambit. She slammed the door behind her and flew out of the mansion.

"She not the only one who can leave this damn place!" Gambit growled to no one but himself, slamming the beer bottle onto the counter, making the dregs at the bottom of the bottle splash and crash against the glass.

With a swish of his worn, dark brown trench coat, Gambit left the kitchen, Jubilee, Kitty, Alex and Kurt staring at him in awe and confusion.

"Do you think that they're, like, over for good now, or what?" Kitty asked Jubilee.

" Like, they're always fighting but this one seemed different. More final, you know? I really think the golden couple are over!" Jubilee replied.

The girls looked at each other, sadly.

"That's sad. Poor Rogue must be so upset. Venever she and Gambit argue, she tells me of all ze feelings she has. She really loves him. Poor, poor Rogue." Kurt sighed, genuinely sympathetic towards his older half sister.

All of a sudden the girls grinned, Jubilee clapped her hands and they beamed at Kurt, their eyes wide and almost too happy. Kurt looked at them, clueless.

"Kurt!" They both cried, together. "Rogue's your sister! You can find out what's going on!"

"Ack, vat? You're going to use the cute blue fuzzy dude just so you can gossip? Vat type of friends are you!" Kurt gasped as each girl gripped onto his arms.

"We're not trying to gossip, we just want to know if Rogue's okay - and she'd talk to you, you're her brother. The only other person she'd talk to here is Storm, and we can't ask her to spy - I mean, check on Rogue for us." Jubilee smiled.

"Vhy are you so interested anyway?" Kurt questioned, oblivious to Jubilee's slip up.

"Because, stupid, this is Rogue and Gambit. They've always been together - okay, so they've not officially been together, but they're Rogue and Gambit. They're always with each other - if anybody is meant to be together forever, it's those two. And if they're not together anymore, what does that say about love? I mean – they care for each other so much, they overcame not being able to touch each other – not hold hands or kiss or anything. If they can't make it, who can?" Kitty gushed.

"You saying rove onry exist if Gambit and Rogue are together? You say rove isn't real if Gambit and Rogue are seperate?" Shiro asked, in broken English, his accent still thick and Japanese.

"Yes! See, Shiro understands!" The girls beamed. "They're two halves of a whole, Rogue and Gambit, and if they're not together then that's GOTTA mean that true love isn't real, you know?" Kitty added.

"Ack, I still don't understand zis, but fine. I'll go find Rogue." Kurt sighed, before teleporting away with a pop and a whisp of smoke.

"You know, they're not gonna appreciate you messing about in their business." A gruff, growl of a voice said, striding passed the three remaining teenagers. "Even if blue boy can't see your feeding him lies, you're still shoving your noses somewhere they don't belong. When they find out you're butting into their business, Rogue and Gambit will show you a thing or two – which is a lot less than what I'm gonna do to Gambit when I find out what he's done." Logan smiled, darkly, to himself.

"Logan, do you know what's going on?" Jubilee asked, meekly, ignoring everything Logan had just said. "Ya know, between Rogue and Gambit."

Jubilee, Kitty and Shiro's eyes followed Logan as he strode through the kitchen, each of them filled with anticipation and nerves, and, in Shiro's case, a fair bit of fear. Logan had been working on his motorbike and oil and grease covered his jeans and black tee-shirt with the ripped off sleeves. He had seen Rogue leave the house, pushing the mansion's front doors open with such force as to blow the two heavy oak doors from their hinges. He'd seen Rogue fly over to the garages, where he was working, with tears flowing down her beautiful, angry face. He'd asked her what was wrong and all she said was his name - Gambit. He smiled, darkly, at her, as she kicked her motorbike into life. He gave her the coordinates to a nice fishing hole he went to whenever he needed calming down. As soon as Rogue had disappeared, Logan decided he could do with a nice cold beer, and maybe seeing Gambit on his way to the kitchen.

"No, but even if I did, I wouldn't go telling it to you gossiping kids. I have a lot more respect for Rogue than that." Logan growled, grabbing a beer from the fridge.

"Don't ya mean Rogue AND Gambit?" Jubilee asked, amused.

"If I meant them both, I would have said so. I'll tell you nosey shrimps one thing: I don't respect that stinking Cajun. I never liked him - I only tolerated him coz Rogue loves him. And now Gumbo's gone and broke Rogue's heart." Logan hissed, stabbing through the wall with his claws.

"Love not exist if Rogue and Gambit are separate!" Shiro pointed out, urgently.

"Oh, is that right, bub?" Logan smirked, releasing a loud, rasping roar of a laugh – Kurt wasn't the only idiot kid manipulated by the two teenage girls. "Well, ain't that something."

Logan left, again.

"Like, someone's a bit too happy Rogue's single." Kitty noted on Logan's departure.

"And here I thought Wolverine was crushing on Storm." Jubilee agreed.

"Do ya think he likes Rogue?"

"If he did, that'd suck. I mean, Logan seems to like crushing on taken girls – first Jean, then Rogue."

"Yeah ... Like, I always saw him more with Storm, ya know?"

Kitty and Jubilee looked at each other.

"We should set them up!" They squealed.

"Like, first we'll find out what's wrong in paradise. Then we can match up Storm and Wolverine!" Jubilee grinned, as she and Kitty hurried out of the kitchen and up the stairs.

"Desu yo?" Shiro sighed, walking into the sitting room and flopping onto the couch.

"Wassup, dude?" Evan asked, throwing the X-Box controller at Bobby after Bobby beat him, again, at Soul Calibur 2. "I thought you went to get chips and sodas?"

"Rogue and Gambit broke up." Shiro replied.

"Heh, yeah, I think everyone heard that, dude." Bobby sniggered, tossing the controller onto his lap.

Shiro held onto the controller and stared at it.

"Jubilee and Kitty said-"

Bobby, Evan and Alex interrupted him by laughing.

"You can't seriously believe anything those two say. The only things that matter to them are clothes, shopping, gossip, boys and messing with people's relationships. Whenever anyone breaks up, it's like a life or death situation with them, and then they broadcast it on the ten o'clock news. They're crazy. That's why I like Kara from school – she's quiet, but when it comes to anything physical, you can't stop her." Alex smiled, smugly.

"I thought you were with Amber?" Bobby asked.

"I thought it was Michaela." Evan grinned. "Now she's got a great ass."

"Who says I'm just with Kara?" Alex grinned, proudly. "Dating, dudes. You get all of the women and none of the commitment."

"Dude!" Bobby and Evan beamed in unison.

Shiro stared at the television screen blankly.

"Desu yo?" He sighed again.
