Title: There Are Times

Rating: R ..as you know for Wolverines thoughts.

Author's note: This is a Wolverine's POV..and is a bit angsty. No smut in this one…perhaps the next one, enjoy.

I own nothing…really..just some things I have to work out

Rogue:…So..is it true…

Wolverine:…Yeah..

Rogue:..Where does that leave us?

Wolverine:..deep breath..As long as we got each other…we will be fine…

There are times, when I knew this would happen, but I went ahead with it anyway.

See me and pain are old pals, believe me, but when I met her, well let's just say she made me believe.



Things would be different, so I gave her my last piece of my heart, worn out as it was it's the one thing that cant heal, and I was happy. Guess that should have thrown up some red flags for me huh?

I was in to deep that I didn't notice our relationship was changing, guess love will do that to you.

When she came to me..I felt it, saw it coming, like I said been through enough to know what she was trying to say.

I didn't fight it not because I didn't want to, there was just nothing to fight for…she already made up her mind. She said something about still being friends and gave me a half hearted hug, and as quickly as she came into my life, she was out of it.

Don't remember much after that, the next few days I was a bit numb. Thankful of my bad ass rep, that most people avoided me anyway. I mean it's not like anyone thought that I might be hurting, they were more concerned about Marie, that I would be the one to break her heart, little did they know huh?

A few of them are even glad we broke up, oh sure I have a few on my side Storm and that kid in the yellow, one of her friends no less, kinda respect her for that.

So now here I am again, alone in the woods behind the mansion, just trying to get through another night, especially when Marie and her currant dick…well I hate to say it but he does treat her well, probably more then I could, because he knows that if he don't…sigh..why do I do this to myself…and why can't I stop thinking about her.

Maybe I should…go. Wait what the fuck am I saying…I'm Wolverine dammit..I'm not going to be chased off by what could have been the love of my long life. I just have to learn to be the guy I once was before all this, before her again. Easy right.

Perhaps it's better if I am alone…I mean in the long run, I have been around for a while and I more then likely outlive whoever I have in my life…Damn girl making me think like this…like One Eye these pansy thoughts.

Still it might be nice to have someone there waiting when I come back, you know, like and I can't believe I'm saying this Scooter and Jean have. And I smell the desire coming off a few of them, but that's a story for another day, as well as going through all this again, and between you and me I don't. It was less painful when Buckethead pulled out all my metal. Well enough of this girlie crap I got some beers to drink to try to drown out her moaning in my ears. You can see yourself out.

Wolverine..HEY NOW WAIT A FLAMING MIN…

Rogue:..Don't worry sugah..I'm still here..bites back a smile at his caring outburst

Worlverine..that's not funny…what are we going to do now?

Rogue..takes his hand in her's Let's go see where the day takes us.

They both walk off into the sunset
