Chapter 1: Ditching

It happens everyday. I pass them in the halls. And I could always tell what they were doing; planning more mischief. They would look back at me, but only with scowls on their faces. They're thoughts of me; 'Traitor!' because of what I did. I betrayed.

Did I?

When I was with them, it was like I wasn't even there in the first place. I mean; it's like I was invisible to them. And now that I've moved out, they pay attention to me, but not in the way I wanted them to.

In this new place, nothing has really changed because I'm still ignored; I'm still the last in the crowd. Only this time, it's with new people. Who keep telling me it's better here.

I don't believe everything I'm told.

I move to the beat of my own drum. That is cheesiest thing I've ever heard. Yet, it says so much. I've done things on my own. I didn't believe I needed help from anyone.

I've pushed everyone away from me.

And that's why I feel alone.

Abandoned.

Do you feel this?

I do. I feel lots of things. Many portions of emotions. Most of them that aren't even mine.

I hate it.

-Rogue
"Bitch."

She heard one of them mumble behind her. She ignored it and tried to finish her test.

"X-geek." They snickered.

'Just ignore them. Just ignore them. Just ignore them.' She kept repeating over in her mind. She really hated that this kept happening whenever she came in contact with any of them.

"Gothfuck." They silently continued to laugh.

She couldn't take it. No matter how hard it was; she couldn't restrain herself anymore. "LOOK, ASSHOLE! Ya got something to say to me?! Then say it to my face! NOT BEHIND MY BACK!!"

"Miss Jordan! Please-"the female teacher was cut off by another student.

"Calm your ass down, Stripes! We were talking about the girl in front of us! Not you!" exclaimed the silver haired boy.

"What the hell are ya talking about?! Ah'm right in front of ya!"

"Exactly!"

"Pietro, that doesn't make sense!"

"Oh, it makes perfect sense to me."

"What are ya-?"

Both were put into silence when two yellow pieces of paper were put in front of them. "I really hate to interrupt your conversation, but you may finish it in detention." The teacher said calmly as he walked back to his desk.

The class entertainment was over and everyone went on with their work as if nothing happened, with the exception of the two who were exchanging glares.
"Damn. Scott's gonna be pissed." She said as she left class.

"And what am I going to be pissed about?" Scott had appeared in front of her.

She jumped a little. "Don't do that!"

"Do what?"

"Just suddenly appear like that! It scares me." And thought 'It reminds me too much of Pietro.'

"Okay. So do you have something to tell me?"

"Huh? Oh yea, ah got a detention." She said the last part almost inaudible.

"You got a what?"

"Ah got a-"Someone had cut her off.

"Hey Stripes, don't forget. We got our little detention to go to." Pietro said as he sped by.

Scott turned his head from Pietro to "Rogue!" he said in annoyance.

"What?" she tried to act as if she didn't do anything wrong 'Because I didn't.' she thought.

"I thought I had a talk with you about this!"

"No, ya didn't. It must have been one of yer other talks."

"Just-!"

'Scott, calm down. Let me talk to her.'

'Jean?'

'I'm right behind you. You can go. I'll be out to the car in a minute.'

'Ok.' Then he walked away.

"Scott? Where are ya going?" said a bewildered Rogue

"He had to do something."

"Oh." Rogue knew what Jean was up to. She was going to do one of her you- know-we-really-care-about-you talks followed by a just-try-stay-out-of- trouble line. Well, Rogue wasn't in the mood for one of them.

"Rogue, you know we really care about you and-"

"Jean, sorry ah can't stay here n' talk, but ah've got a detention to go to."

Before she could have the chance to walk away "You know that we are always here for you, Rogue." Jean placed a hand on her shoulder "And just try to stay out of trouble."

Rogue brushed the hand off her shoulder. "Just tell the professor that ah'll be back a lil late." She then walked off to detention.
Detention.

This facility makes rules, you brake them and this is what you get.

A punishment that's made by the school faculty that involves sitting in a classroom for two hours after school. No talking. Just sitting and working. That's it.

As if taking two hours out of my day would teach me a lesson.

It wouldn't matter if I got one or not. I'll leave anytime I want to. The guard dog watching us for the time being is always passed out in his own dreamland.

You wake him up, he tells you to shut up.

It's not as bad as prison, but it's not more fun than it.

Basically, defining a detention is simple.

In one word.

Pointless.

'Where is that bitch?' he sighed.

Mr. Robinson was grading papers at his desk, only half awake. He yawned "Wasn't someone else supposed to be serving this with you, Mr. yawn Maximoff?"

"Uhh...don't think so." Pietro replied.

And that's when she showed up.

"Sorry ah'm late Mr. Robinson. Ah was-"

"Save it, Miss Jordan. Just take a seat and shut up."

After Rogue sat down, there was complete silence for fifteen minutes. Then "I'll be gone for just a second. And I trust that you'll stay this quiet when I get back."

He left the room and shutting the door behind him.

Pietro got out of his seat and walked over to the window. "You wanna come?"

"What are ya talking about?" she asked.

"I'm ditching detention. You wanna go with me?"

"Why are ya asking me?"

"That's not the important question. Now are you going or not? Mr. Robinson can only take a shit for so long."

Rogue exhaled "Sure."

"Ok, you first."

"Out the window?"

"Duh! We can't go out in the halls without someone seeing us."

She looked at him unsurely.

Pietro was starting to get agitated with her slowness. 'Is she scared? Why won't she go?' "You don't have to worry about falling. We're on the first floor."

"It's not that."

"Then go!"

She gave him an unsure look again.

Pietro gave an irritated sigh "Fine! I'll go without you." He opened up the window and put his right leg out and stopped when he felt someone put their hand on his shoulder.

It was Rogue. She put her left leg out the window. They were staring directly at each other. "If this is some kind of trick, like what ya guys planned with Mystique-"

"I'm not planning anything. I'm just trying to get out of detention."

"That's all?"

"Yes!" he said in much annoyance.

"Ok. I'm coming." she finally said.

Pietro exhaled "We've really gotta hurry, Stripes." Pietro pulled his leg in so he was back in the room. "Ladies first."

Rogue then got her right leg out of and was now out of the building.

Pietro went and was out safely too.
At the Xavier Institute. . .

"Hey Jean!" Kurt appeared in front of her.

"Yea?"

"Vwere's Rogue?" the blue creature asked.

"She's in detention."

"Detention? Vwat is she doing there?"

"She got in trouble. Duh!" Kitty spoke up. "It's no surprise either. I mean she is the type who would."

"Kitty, you don't have to stereotype people like that." said Jean.

"Oh c'mon Jean, don't tell me you haven't thought of her as that type."

"Well. . .I . . .She did seem a bit moody today."

"How so?" Kurt asked.

"Well, she blew me off when I tried to talk to her."

"That's no surprise. She blows me off everytime I suggest a makeover." said Kitty.

"It's weird because I thought that you two were getting to be such good-" Jean was cut off by Kitty.

"Jean, just because me and her are roomies doesn't mean that we're buddies!"

"Kitty, calm down. You don't have bite her head off." Kurt reasoned.

"What makes you think that? I was only trying to explain to her that some people weren't meant to be friends." She went to walk up to her room and as she walked up the stairs she said "It takes no telepath to figure that out."

As soon as Kitty was gone, "Jean, vwat is wrong vwith Kitty? I've never seen her act like that before." Kurt asked.

All Jean could answer was "PMS?"
They were both walking along side eachother on the sidewalk.

"What was with the whole ladies first thang?"Rogue broke the silence.

"You never thought that a member of the brotherhood was also a member of Cherry Fall's boarding school."

"No way! Ya had to go to one of those prep schools?"

"It wasn't that bad." then he quickly added "Plus, it was my dad's idea."

"Ah see." Rogue replied "So what's it like, having an evil dad who wants to kill all mortals?"

"Aw Stripes, you make it sound like he's a bad person." Pietro said in a fake dramatic line.

"Well he is!" she chuckled

"You don't know him." He reasoned "I mean, if you got to look at things from his point of view."

"Oh. So explain to me why ah'd wanna kill someone."

"I. . .uhh. . .he. . ." He was at a loss with words.

"Pietro, ah do admit that ah hate being picked on 'cause ah'm different, but that doesn't mean ah want to kill 'em for doin that."

"What if they tried to kill you?"

She didn't know what to say to that.

"We should take the alley." Pietro suggested.

"Why?"

"So no one will see us."

"And is that a problem? Being seen with an X-geek?" she frowned at him.

"Stripes, why are you so edgy around me? Can't you just let what happened today go?"

"No, ah can't 'cause ya'll be doing it again and again until ya push me to the brink of my sanity." She said without looking at him.

"I didn't think you had any sanity left in you after you joined those X- geeks."

"It's not that bad there."

"So you admit it's bad."

"That's not what ah-"Pietro cut her off.

"Admit it! You hate it there."

"Ah don't hate it."

"But you said it was bad living there." He smirked

"No, ah didn't! Stop putting words in my mouth!"

They both stopped walking.

"So then why did you leave us" Pietro asked with a serious look on his face.
