Disclaimer: I do not own x-men

Special thanks for those who reviewed the previous chapter

It's not gonna be a Logan/Rogue fan fic. I just wanted to show their relationship in here some how. I'm planning on making this a Ryro fic so you'll see him soon in the next few chapters!

What I wanted

Chapter 2

Rogue clutched her white cased pillow with her bare hands. She was staring blankly out the window from her single person dorm room. The green grass on the lawn was bathed in sunlight along with the three idle graves. Everything was slipping from her un-gloved finger tips. Jean was gone. Cyclops was gone. The Professor, Charles Xavier, the man that most children at the school had seen as the only father figure in their life was gone. Would Logan stay at the school? Would she stay at the school? Could she stay at the school now that she wasn't a mutant?

These questions clouded her head as her sullen eyes gazed lifelessly outside. It seemed that there were so many things to think about that her mind had just gone blank. Now she was just laying there waiting for whatever she was supposed to wait for. And then sure enough it came.

"Hey kid," a husky unmistakable voice said. "You alright?"

Logan sat down next to Rogue who didn't reply to his questions. Rogue felt the bed shift as more weight was added on the edge. At first she laid there as if she couldn't move or couldn't speak. Her ever faithful companion and protector by her side waited patiently for her to answer.

After what seemed like an eternity Rogue sat herself up, although she kept her eyes on the bed. "I don't know…" Rogue planned to finish her sentence, but she wasn't sure how.

"What do you mean you don't know?" Logan asked with an eyebrow raised. He looked at her with his trade marked confused expression.

"Bobby and I broke up."

Logan let out a prolonged grunt at her response. "Eh ice-cube? Who needs him anyway? You're better off without him if you ask me."

"I do. I need him."

Rogue response caught him off guard. Her remark even surprised her a bit. Had she become so dependant on Bobby? Even now she still cared and loved him, she was sure that nothing would change that. But still nothing could change the hurt that she was feeling at this moment in time.

Fianlly Rogue's eyes lifted from the bed to the wall opposite from her. She felt the rim of her eyes start to fill with tears. The ones that she tried so hard to fight back. It was as if she was fighting a loosing battle.

Logan put a comforting hand on her shoulder as he saw her eyes glisten with tears. He hated to see her like this and had made a mental note to talk to Bobby afterwards.

As soon as Logan's hand came in contact with her shoulder her tears started to flow freely. The tears that she fought had won and started to stream down her face. They caressed her cheeks and died on her lips and chin. Even though she knew that Logan was watching her, she still couldn't bring herself to make eye contact with him. What did she have left now?

"I did it. I did it Logan. I took the cure. Now what do I have left?" she said with a shaking voice.

He had figured this much. When he saw her with her bag in hand walking out the door he knew. No matter what he would've said it wouldn't have stopped her. So when she said she had taken the cure it came to no suprise to him.

His strong arm gently pulled her in to an protective brotherly embrace, one that she fully accepted. He held her in her arms cradling her close to his chest. She squinted her eyes in pain as she rested her head on him. Her barehands were balled in little fists placed right under her chin that was wet with her tears.

Logan searched for the words to say what he wanted to say. He was never good with words and rarely expressed his feelings.

"You have a lot left Marie, even if you don't know it. You got more than you can see. This school. You'll always have it, and it will always be a home for you."

Rogue blinked her eyes open as Logan said his words. Tears still flowed freely although now she felt them being wiped away. For the first time Logan was able to touch her without being hurt. They had almost killed eachother more than a few times, and now here they were. She was safe in his arms and he was safe holding her.

The back of his finger brushed against her skin as he wiped her tears away. Now, at this Rogue looked up to make eye contact with him. She was able to be touched without being a danger to him. It was a feeling that was long forgotten to her. It suprised her how she had forgotten what a simple touch could feel like.

He looked back at her as he brushed the last few tears away from her pale skinned face. "Don't forget it kid, you got me too," he said smiling.

Rogue swallowed as she gave a weak, but genuine smile.She wrapped her arms around him in a platonic hug with no words escaping her lips.

After the next hour Logan made sure that Rogue was alright. During the next few minutes she had laid back on her bed and fallen asleep with damp cheeks. She hadn't bothered to wash her face since she was too drained emotionally to do anything else but sleep. Logan watched the girl sleep peacefully before he stood up to leave. He shut the door to her room and looked for a certain ice-cube.

So I hoped you guys liked this chapter especially those who put this story on their alert list. I'm not sure if I'm going to write the Bobby/Logan encounter...so tell me what you think. I'll try my hardest to update as soon as I can, and do justice to Rogue/Pyro/Bobby and all the other x-men!
