ROGUE
I DO NOT OWN any of the X-MEN™ or MARVEL™ characters.
The two girls walked in silence, Mya occasionally lifting her head to look at the students who watched her walk by.
"Here we are," Rogue opened the door to their dormitory. Walking in, Mya looked around at the teddy bears, posters and clothing that lined the room. "Here," she walked up to and sat down on a bed, "is where I sleep. This one is yours," she motioned towards the bed to her right. "They're pretty comfy once you get used to them, you kind of have to make them your own, you know," she turned and laid down on the bed, bouncing twice, "customize it." They both smiled. Rouge knew she was making progress.
"Thank you," Mya smiled again walking over to the bed next to Rogue and imitating her by bouncing. They laughed again, as Rogue got up and walked over to a dresser in the corner of the room. She stopped for a second and fixed her hair in the large mirror that hung over it.
"So what's your name?" Rogue turned and sat down on the dresser chair.
"Mya, My D'Angelo," she sat up on the edge of the bed.
"My name is Marie," she nodded cheerfully. Mya looked back confused.
"I'm sorry; I thought your name was Rogue?" Mya shook her head.
"My real name is Marie, my other name is Rogue. The Professor calls them codenames or are natural names," Rogue smiled and shook her head. "Don't you have one?"
"Uh, no, I guess not," Mya blushed a bit.
"Hmm, maybe you'll find one here," she thought for a second. "Oh hey, I was just about to have dinner, if you're hungry; you're more than welcome to join me," Rogue stood up, fixing her gloves.
"I'm starving!" Mya put her hand to her stomach, as she joined Rouge at the door. Rogue opened it allowing Mya to go first. "Thanks." As she walked behind her, Mya was beginning to believe that she was going to be okay here, here with her own kind.
