Pairing: Logan/Rogue friendship, I want them to be a couple but angst is amazing too
Author: Me! Warning, lacking of beta-er so anything wonky, I blame my lack of proof-reading skills and the computer spell checker.
Note: my First XMen fic, so, be nice! This is a short ficlet! one shot!
Summary: Set after XMen 3, after Rogue talks to Bobby she goes to tell a certain Wolverine about what she did (which I am mad that she did…grr) Logan POV
I was lying in my bed that night, reliving everything that happened in the past few days. I killed her, I killed Jean. No. I didn't kill Jean. She was already dead, I killed Phoenix. Phoenix killed Jean. I heard someone at my door, I sat up quickly and put my bare feet on the floor. The air was cool that night, all I was wearing was a pair of X-Men sweatpants. I looked up. It was Rogue. She stood there in a wife beater (a/n: it's a type of white tank top) and pj pants. I stood up.
"Did you…" She walked over to me and hugged me, her skin flush against mine, but nothing happened. I did not feel my life being sucked out of me, no, I felt…all I felt was the rhythm of her heart beating against mine. I relaxed into the hug and pulled her head against my shoulder.
"Marie…" I started to pull back, but she held on.
"No, can we, can we just stay like this, just a little longer?" So, I stood there with her. It seemed as though we had been there forever. Her death-grip on my back became weaker, and I could tell that she was getting tired.
"Marie, you've gotta go to bed, darlin'."
"Cant I just stay here? Please, Logan?"
I did not say a word. I picked her up and laid her on my bed, then I laid down behind her. She grabbed my hand and brought it over her body, hugging it against her chest.
"Thanks Logan."
"For what?"
"Keepin' me safe."
"Made a promise to a girl once."
