AN- Set after X-3, obvioulsy. My first X-men movie fic, or first X-men in general. Bobby and Rouge paring, beacuse that is all i care about, lol.

Disclaimer- I own nothing in association with X-men comics or movies, or anything in general.


"This isn't what I wanted" he said.

Bobby knew that it was true. Of course to hold her hand and feel the warmth from her skin or to touch her face would be wonderful. Being with her was better than all these things, and even if he went his whole life with out the small pleasures he so desperately wanted, it would be okay, because he had her, and that was all that mattered.

Although there was the fact there was nothing more he wanted in the world than to kiss her, softly, extensively.

But she wanted this, she needed this, and for that, he was the smallest bit grateful.

She wasn't a mutant anymore; she no longer had to be afraid of simple contact. More importantly, she was able to touch and caress others like those around her did so thoughtlessly.

This was a vast turning point in their lives, and Bobby didn't want to shock her by engulfing her in a kiss right away. So instead he gently took her hand, and looked into her eyes.

Kiss me

They screamed.

Her eyes taunted him until he could no longer take it and as he leaned in, Rouge followed.

The soft pink skin of their lips caressed, for only the second time.

They had both been dreaming of this moment for what seemed like a lifetime, hoping that maybe, one day, they would be able to kiss without the threat of death lingering in the moment.

When Bobby would think of this kiss, he imagined feeling nothing. No fear or pain would be present. Her lips wouldn't suddenly become cold as his warmed up; he wouldn't feel as though all life and spirit was draining out of him.

Bobby always imagined nothing would be felt; it would be a kiss between star crossed lovers, like so many had shared before.

But his many fantasies weren't what reality proved to be.

The second her lips descended upon his own, he felt something like never before. A rush of emotions almost swept him off his feet. This was the most powerful thing he had ever experienced. His mind began to reel, he felt his face flush, and his hands, that were always so cold, were suddenly burning with passion as he touched the smooth skin on her hips and back.

Nothing mattered to him anymore, nothing but this beautiful girl who had her arms around his neck. It was a feeling of complete freedom. Bobby had never known a kiss could invoke so many different things, so many ostentatious things.

He had known he cared more about her than anyone in the world. Yet it was as though the few small reservations he had were being tossed aside, and he knew who he was in this world, with her.

That one kiss that had been waited so long for brought upon so much happiness.

It held so much truthfulness, reassurance, and joy.

That one kiss was so full of love.
