Normal day at the mansion?
Rogue was up before dawn. She was running round the grass, the wind gently blowing through her brown hair. She felt fresh. She had slipped out early to avoid the crowds, so she wouldn't have to wear gloves and thick clothes while running, which, as anyone could imagine, wouldn't be the best thing to run in. She stopped under the trees and sat down with a contented sigh. She liked it best this way. At first she cringed when she was alone, feeling that it was because of her power. But now she lived for the few quiet moments in the day where she could ponder over the days happenings, or in this case, any random thoughts that happened to come to her.
Today it was Logan and Scott. Logan couldn't bear for her to even speak to another boy, it seemed. He disliked bobby with intense, although their friction had simmered down after the incident at Bobby's house. However, Logan's behaviour with Scott had re-lighted. At first, everyone had thought that they would be united with the separation of Jean, and surely enough they had been strangely civil towards each other. But as the school life had gradually got into a normal routine, their behaviour seemed to be even worse than before, bickering at the smallest things. Last night it had been over the 'babysitting' as Logan had called it. Both men resented the job, but both had to take on their duty and do it. After the loss of Jean, the punishments seemed to get worse for the smallest thing wrong. Scott had told Logan to baby-sit, as the others were going out, and Logan resented the fact. In fact, Professor Xavier himself got involved, as it was turning out to be a stand up fight, and many students were watching with mild interest.
Rogue sighed. Why did she feel she needed to get involved? She did it without thinking. She had hurt Logan twice before, she knew the feeling, but still she touched him to stop him from lunging at Scott. No one blamed her. Even with Logan lying in the hospital wing had anyone blamed her? Which was why Rogue felt she needed to get away. It wasn't the first time.
She glanced up. Bobby was strolling towards her, a look of concern at Rogue sitting all by herself. He sat down near Rogue, but she edged further away a realization seeped into her mind, after the initial happy thought of company. She hadn't brought a coat, or even her gloves with her. She couldn't hurt anyone else, especially not Bobby. Dear old Bobby.
"Rogue." Bobby began
"Don't" Rogue replied. "Look at me. I have so much skin showing. It can't work. I can't hurt you.' Tears came into her eyes as the look of desperation came into his.
"I can't hurt you.' Rogue replied, whispering as she stood up and made her way to the mansion, to get ready for breakfast and class.
***
Maybe it was Bobby's action at dawn, or the one of the previous day, but Rogues frenzy of wearing as many layers as possible, as she walked into her first lesson. She had opted to miss breakfast. She wasn't hungry. Besides, she didn't want all of those stares from her classmates from the night before with Logan, who, consequently, was now out of the hospital wing, and looking for her.
She was receiving a strange looks from wherever she went, especially as it was a boiling day outside, but Rogue didn't care anymore. Best be safe rather than sorry in her case. Scott was taking the lesson. Actually he was covering from Professor Xavier, while he was talking to another student. He glanced at Rogue as she came in but said nothing. She spent the rest of the lesson looking out of the window, which was unusual for her, as she tended to like science, and listened most intently on the normal day. But it wasn't a normal day. She had used her powers to hurt someone. It was her fault. And she had to live with it. At the end of the lesson Scott called over the departing children, 'Rogue, one moment please'. Bobby looked at Rogue, and they walked to the front, holding hands, Rogue having got over Bobby's comments earlier. Scott gave Bobby a chilling glare, although Bobby returned one much more icy. They never did get on. Rogue whispered that she wouldn't be a minute, and he left, frowning, only to get told of by Logan for not looking, as he rounded the corner and bumped into him.
Scott, however, was only passing on a message to Rogue. 'If you'll go to Professor Xavier's study now. He's expecting you.' He gave rogue a withering look. 'Maybe you don't need All of those layers.' Rogue said nothing. She nodded at his first comment, and walked out of the room, her head down. What was he going to say? She had a feeling it wasn't going to be good. Perhaps he was going to expel her. She gulped as she turned the corner to his study. However, before she could knock, she heard a call from behind her. It was Logan. Rogue froze. 'Don't get near me, Logan. Don't.'
'Rogue.' Logan began. But Rogue cut him short. She was shaking ever so slightly. 'Please don't, oh please. I'm so sorry for what I did. You can't come near me. I can't hurt you again. It's all my fault. I didn't mean to. I just.'
'Rogue, we know you didn't mean to' A voice came from behind her. Xavier had the door open, and he beckoned her in. she was still shaking.
With one glance at Rogue, he sent out a message for Storm. 'We may need you Storm. Make your way over.' He sighed. He'd have to tell her. He wasn't looking forward to it.

Sorry it doesn't have a real story so far, nor does it incorporate all of the characters. I will add the others in during the story. My first fanfic, so please be lenient. Reviews as well, have something planned, but other ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!
