Deception
Rogue meets a man on the internet, he says his name is Remy, she says hers is Raven. She talks to him like any other guy on the internet but soon she starts falling for him. But how can she have a relationship with a guy across the net and one she has lied to?
It was a typical day, Rogue had awoken to a busy day in the mansion, full of teenage mutants all trying to have a decent breakfast before getting ready for school, cramming in final bits of revision and finishing (some even starting) homework due in for the day. Rogue entered the kitchen, it was packed, and everyone was scrambling for the fridge and cupboards or trying to steal each other's food. Rogue busied herself with getting her own food, being careful not to touch anyone. After giving up on trying to get a decent meal she quickly grabbed the pop tart that had just sprung out the toaster before Ray had noticed and left the overly crowded mansion into the outdoors, ready to walk to school. But no matter how crowded the mansion was, she was always still alone. For no one dared to get close to her, for either her deadly skin or her deadly attitude.
After she arrived at school the bell went signalling for first class was beginning. Not caring if she was late she took her time to get to class. When she finally got there the whole class had sat down, there weren't many seats left. So Rogue made herself comfortable at the back of the room at the end of the table, leaving a chair between her and a gothic girl called Wanda. Wanda was sitting with her twin brother Pietro. Wanda didn't mind Rogue, she was neither friend nor enemy of her, but her brother on the other hand hated Rogue because she was an X-Man and she had beaten him badly many times before.
He sniggered at her when she sat down, and muttered 'loner' loud enough for her to hear. Rogue just rolled her eyes and turned her head to watch the teacher teach them algebra. As the teacher droned on, Rogue got out her iPod and listened to her music while getting lost in her thoughts.
Soon it was lunch, even though Rogue did not have a true friend, the X-Men accepted her and she joined them. As they ate their lunch they discussed gossip and were laughing about each other's jokes but none paid any attention to Rogue unless for a comment on something or other. She sat there staring out the window, blocking out the pain.
The day went slowly and silently, Rogue sat in class alone, listening to her iPod, trying to concentrate on her work and not the sharp pain in her heart. Once the day had finished she rushed home, to avoid the rush of students coming back to the mansion and Logan's sympathy stares. She flopped herself on her bed, which was still messy from the morning where she had thrown her clothes onto it. Ignoring them she shoved them off her bed and grabbed her laptop.
Switching it on, she logged onto MSN Messenger. A message appeared. Someone had added her on MSN.
"Who's this?" She questioned. she accepted his invitation. He was online! Surprised she clicked onto his name and doubled clicked to talk him but before she could do that he had already sent her a message.
"Bonjour chere"
"Bonjour" She imitated back, still very suspicious. Perhaps it was one of the Brotherhood or X-Men trying to fool with her? Especially as they were typing with an accent.
"You speak French?"
"Oh no! I don't speak French" She replied back quickly.
"Haha, mocking me chere?"
"Perhaps" Rogue smirked to herself.
"I like someone who teases"
Rogue laughed out loud. This is definitely someone trying to fool me! Feeling in a cheeky mood suddenly she responded, "I'll tease you all night long then"
"Ah chere, I would adore such a thing but I don't even know your name"
Pfft! They know perfectly well who I am! But I can have some fun with this though…
"My name is Raven, what is yours?"
"Raven? Sounds very dark and mysterious, they are always the most interesting girls. My name is Remy"
"That's cool. So how are you?"
"Much better now!"
How corny are they going to get? This is pathetic!
"Haha, I'm sure" She responded instead.
"So, what's a fine belle like yourself on MSN during the day?"
"Apparently talking to a 'french' guy" She wittedly retorted.
"Haha! Fiery! But I guess if you ask a stupid question you'll get a stupid answer"
"Too true" She said. "So where did you get my MSN address from?"
"A friend gave it to me"
"Who?"
"John"
What? I don't know anyone by that name, they probably just made it up!
"Oh, alright then"
"Rogue!" Someone screamed through her door, a second later there was hard pounding causing her door to shake under it. "Time for a training session!"
"Shit" Rogue cursed. "I have to go, I'll see you later" She typed to Remy and signed off MSN. An offline message came up before it shut it off.
"Au roir chere"
I haven't written anything for over two years now! I know I am pathetic but I just lost it, I just couldn't write anymore so I didn't try. An idea came to me, this is just a sample of the beginning, I hope you enjoy!
Read it. Review it. Love it.
