Disclaimer: I own the plot. That's all. I own nothing else.... The sadness of it....PAIN! SADNESS!!...okay I'm done.
"This is Pietro talking quickly(I'm just so sick of having to double take on his sentences, so this'll be easier)."
'Thoughts'
"The BOLDs are stressed."
-Telepathic speaking-
Italics like this are flash backs.
'This is when they write notes to each other.'
"This is Pietro talking quickly in the flash backs."
Self Possessed Rietro Style: Part one!
Pietro leaned against a tree and looked around at all the teens who would give him looks and then look back at whatever they were doing, not wanting him to know that they were looking at him.
It had been like this since they had found out that he was a mutant.
Pietro watched as the X-geeks walked by. His eyes lingered on Rogue. He and her had been good friends before she'd betrayed them.
Of course, they'd lost that friendship when she joined the X-men and began to act like an X-man....
It bothered him to no end that she could change so quickly to fit in with a group, when she hated being around people.
Pietro had felt betrayed, like the others had when they'd found out from Mystique that she had left....
Mystique walked into the house. Pietro and the others gathered around.
It was late, and Rogue should have been back by now, even if she had gone on that field trip. "Where's Rogue?" Pietro asked.
"She's with them." Mystique said as she headed up the stairs.
"With who?" Lance asked, as him and the others turned to face Mystique. She turned and glared at them all.
"With the X-men. None of you are to speak to her, or show any sign that you care, understood?" She asked sharply. A very cold angry look on her face, and in her eyes.
"But she's-" Todd started, he was cut off by a glare from Mystique.
"Right..." They all said....
The memory was still fresh in his mind.
Pietro missed Rogue a lot.
Pietro missed the nights that they would stay up and talk.... just talk about the way things were, about how hard it was to go through everything the way that they had.
Pietro opened his eyes, and listened closely to the noise coming from the room next to his. It was that gothic girl.... Rogue? Yeah… that was her name....wasn't it?
Pietro rolled over and tried to block out the thrashing noises, and cries and shouts that came from her room.
But he couldn't. For some reason he felt like he knew what it felt like to have nightmares that would do this to a person. And he did.... The nightmares of his sister crying out to him and his father for help, not to leave her there....the nightmares of what it was like to grow up with a family that wasn't his own.
Pietro figured that he had handled it his whole life, so she could handle it on her own too! But after a few minutes he couldn't take it anymore and got out bed.
He walked, slowly for him, to her bedroom door. At first he hesitated to do anything. But he opened the door and walked in.
Rogue was thrashing around in her bed, mumbling something...but he couldn't understand what it was.
Pietro walked over and sat down on her bed, and looked at her. A worried look on his face. He felt like he knew what she was going through, he really did want to help her.
"Rogue?" He asked, his hands on her covered shoulders, he shook her lightly, repeating her name.
After a moment her jade eyes open and looked into his sapphire eyes, with fear and distrust. She pulled away from him, while sitting up. "What are ya doin' in here?" She asked quickly.
"You were making a lot of noise, I was wondering if you were okay..." Pietro said. Rogue just looked at him suspiciously.
Pietro had never been told what her powers were, so he didn't know why she was so covered up, even when she was sleeping. Most people slept in one article of clothing, a baggy t-shirt for girls, and a pair of pants or boxers for boys....
Heck! He himself was only in a pair of black boxers.
She on the other hand wore a pair of black tights, and a long sleeved t-shirt.
Rogue grabbed a pair of gloves on her night-stand and quickly slipped them on. "Sorrah if ah woke ya." She said, looking up at him.
"No big. I was just kinda worried, ya know? You seemed to be having a bad nightmare..."
"Yeah....nightmare....Rahght." Rogue said as she looked down at her covered hands, she looked up at him.
Pietro had to admit, she was quite beautiful without all the make-up on. She didn't look like she was going to kill the first person who talked to her. "Ya wanna talk 'bout it?" He asked.
"No...." Rogue replied, as she seemed to find great interest in the many posters on her walls.
"Oh, well then, I'm gonna go back to bed." Pietro said as he stood up.
He stopped when Rogue grabbed his wrist. "Please don't go… Ah, Ah don't wanna be alone..." She said, her eyes begging him to stay and not leave her alone.
So Pietro sat back down, and had a nice long conversation with her, the two spoke of many different things.
Their favorite colors, and foods, and things like that.
Pietro pushed away from the tree and walked into the school. He was planing to go to class...it was really the only thing he could do! This town was boring! There was movie theater and a mall....and that was about it.
Rogue sat in her drama class, she was bored out of her mind! There was utterly nothing to do. Her teacher was droning on and on about some play, she couldn't remember which, nor did she really care.
Scott was sitting in front of her, taking notes, while Pietro sat behind her writing something on a piece of paper. She doubted it was notes. Since he never took notes.
Pietro used his super speed and gave her the note. Rogue looked down at it, after making sure that the teacher had his back to the class.
'Rogue,
I was wondering if maybe we could talk outside?
Signed, your lovable handsome speed demon, Pietro' Rogue smiled as she read it. She always said if his ego got any bigger he was going to end up exploding.
Rogue turned the paper over and wrote on the back of it. She then handed it back to Pietro and let him take it.
'When?
Ps. Get yer head outta the clouds Pietro, ya aren't perfect! And ya definitely aren't lovable!'
Pietro wrote something and handed it back to her. 'Aww! Come one Rogue! Ya know ya love me! Who could resist me? Certainly not any of the girls in school! So why do you resist the charm of Pietro Maximoff?
And I was thinking maybe lunch time?'
Rogue read it over and had to put her hand on her mouth to keep from laughing at what he'd wrote. She slowly ripped a page of black paper out of her notebook, and wrote with her green gel pen, before handed the paper back to him, along with a blue gel pen for him to use.
'You are so full of your self, ya know that?
And where do we meet at lunch time?
Ps. I want the pen back when yer done with it! So don't think of stealin' it speedy!' Pietro read silently to himself. He smirked, she was going to meet him somewhere to talk! Finally!! And she'd even called him speedy! Even though he hated the nickname, it was nice to know that she was going to consider him a little bit of a friend.
He wrote quickly, on the paper. And handed it back to her.
Rogue read it over, 'How about out side, in the back, on the tracks? That way you don't have to worry about Ol'one eye bein' there? And I don't want your pen. I like blue, but I'll stick to writing in black.'
Rogue smiled, she wrote something down and was about to give the paper back to him when the bell rang and Scott turned to her. "What class do you have next Rogue?" Scott asked.
"Umm....Ah....have..." Rogue said a little panicky, she hid the note behind her back. Pietro quickly grabbed the note, and handed Rogue her pen. Rogue smiled at Scott, even though the smile was for Pietro. "Ah thahnk(think) Ah have gym next." Rogue said, stressing the 'gym', to make sure that Pietro heard her.
Scott nodded. "I think Kitty has that class…" Scott said as he stood.
Rogue gathered her books and walked away. Pietro had waited for Rogue and Scott to be out of sight before he left too.
