Chapter 6:
Rogue walked into the mansion and found that it was strangely quiet.
"They must be out buyin' supplies for tha party," she thought to herself.
So she made her way upstairs to her room. She checked the time and saw that it was now 1:00pm. The party started at three. She had enough time to take another shower and get ready. But first she wrote the two numbers in her phone book just in case she needed them later.
She began to grab some clothes to change into after the shower and was about to leave the room, when all of the sudden she saw a head sticking out of the wall.
She gave a short scream and then noticed that it was only Kitty. No matter how many times she did that it was still a little creepy.
"Kitty ya gotta stop doing that," Rogue ground out after she recovered.
Kitty stepped out of the wall and into their room. Rogue noticed that she was already dressed for the party. She had on black capris and a red halter top on, with some black sandals that lace up around the ankles. Her hair was in its usual style.
"Sorry. You're not dressed yet, how come?" Kitty asked, looking almost disappointed.
"Because tha party doesn't start for another two hours," Rogue said, lifting her arms up in annoyance.
That's when Kitty noticed the numbers on her arms, "What's that?" Kitty said pointing to her arms.
"What's what?" Rogue asked, putting her arms behind her back.
"You like have numbers on your arms," Kitty said, "What are they?"
"They're nothing," Rogue tried to hide. She really didn't need Kitty to know what happened.
"Let me see," Kitty said, being persistent going around her trying to get a glimpse.
Rogue kept turning to keep them hidden.
After their cat and mouse chase, Rogue finally gave up and held out her arms but not without a sigh of complete annoyance with her roommate.
"That's definitely not your handwriting and they're both different," she said after examining her arms.
"Are ya done wit' tha inspection yet," Rogue said, her patience wearing thin.
"Not quite. Wait a second that's a new watch isn't it; but it looks familiar, kinda like Kurt's.
She then stopped to think for a moment. She had her finger on her chin and was looking up at nothing, apparently in deep though. Then she put her arms down and her eyes went wide and then she yelled, "Oh my God, you can touch!"
Rogue laughed at her friend and then said, "Took ya long enough."
"Tell me everything!" Kitty exclaimed. So they sat down on Rogue's bed and she explained her session with the professor and his gift.
When she was done explaining Kitty just stared at her with a look that said, "This changes everything!"
When she finally took everything in she said, "So what are the numbers?" When she saw the look of hesitation on Rogue's face she added, "Come on, we're best friends, you can tell me anything."
Rogue's features softened at them being called best friends.
It was weird, Kitty always thought that her best friend would be someone like Jean, but it was really Rogue. Rogue was the one person she told everything to. Jean was one of her best friends but Rogue was number 1.
"Fahne," she relented, she got off the bed and went to look out the window, then she continued, "When ah went ta tha park ah kind o' met this guy named Micheal and we talked. He gave meh his number and said ta call him if ah wanted ta talk more or just have coffee." She turned to see Kitty's reaction and it was just as she expected. Kitty was practically jumping up and down on Rogue's bed in excitement.
"Wow, like that is so great! When are you going to call him?" Kitty asked.
"Calm down Kitty, ah haven't decided if ah'm going to call him or not," Rogue replied.
"Like why not? It's not like there's anything stopping you. You can touch and everything," Kitty countered.
"Yah but ah'm still a mutant," Rogue said and turned back to stare out the window.
A minute of silence past between them and Kitty was the first to speak up again and Rogue turned to look at her, "So, like who's the other number from?" The minute this came out of her mouth a blush developed across Rogue's cheeks. She tried to turn around so Kitty couldn't see but it was too late.
"Who is it? Definitely someone I know isn't it? So who is it? Come on tell me!" Kitty exclaimed.
"Umm. Pietro," Rogue mumbled.
"Who?" Kitty asked again, not hearing the first time.
"Pietro," Rogue said louder.
"Pietro?" Kitty practically screamed, "Why the hell is he giving you his number for?" She was quite taken aback at this turn of events.
"Ah'm not quite sure," Rogue replied.
"Well what did he say?" Kitty asked, sitting on the edge of the bed in anticipation.
Rogue really didn't want to tell her exactly what happened, but she didn't know what to make of it so she decided on getting Kitty's opinion.
"So." Kitty urged.
"Well, ah told him ah could touch so he would stop annoying the hell out o' meh," Rogue started, and then came to sit on her bed. She took a pillow and hugged it to her lap and stared down at it.
"And." Kitty said, very impatiently, "What was his reaction?"
"He played dumb for ah bit. Then he said, ' if ah kiss ya rahgt now ah wouldn't die," Rogue said.
"Oh my god, like no way," Kitty said, resuming the bouncing, "What did you do?"
"Ah told him ta shut up and go away, which he didn't," Rogue said. Then she told her the rest up to the phone number part and the ass kicking she wanted to give him, which Kitty laughed at.
"So what do ya think? Is he just playing wit' meh or what? Cause ah sure as hell can't tell," Rogue said and looked up at her friend.
"He seems sincere enough. But you never know with the Brotherhood. I mean Lance was okay but I'm not sure about Pietro. And I don't think you should invite him, unless you want your party to be trashed," Kitty gave her advice, "But this Micheal, he's definitely a keeper." Rogue laughed at her friend and gave her a small playful push on the arm.
"That is so cool. You touched me but didn't drain me," Kitty said in a loud voice.
At that second they heard a knock on the door.
"Come in," Rogue said, because Kitty was to busy bouncing and laughing.
The door opened to reveal Scott and with him a flat long box wrapped in blue sparkly wrapping paper and a nice blue bow.
"Hi, can I talk to Rogue in private," he said immediately.
"Sure thing, I was just leaving to check on the party preparations," Kitty replied, getting up off the bed. When she got behind Scott she winked at Rogue and gave her the thumbs up sign, which Rogue returned with a glare. She then left and closed the door behind her.
"So what's up?" Rogue asked him, he looked pretty serious.
"I wasn't eavesdropping or anything, Kitty was yelling pretty loudly and I was passing by," he said rather quickly, "Is it true? Can you touch?"
Rogue was still sitting on the bed and she looked down before she said, "Ya it's true."
"Since when?" Scott asked, coming to sit on the bed next to her.
"Since this mornin'. Tha professor gave meh this," she held up her arm to show her watch, "it's not meh controlling it though. But tha professor and ah are making progress in that area."
She looked up at him to see his reaction, but she couldn't tell because of his glasses. He was just staring at her.
All of the sudden he hugged her and said, "Rogue that is great news. I'm so happy for you." She didn't know what to do at first, but then when she got over the shock of Scott Summers touching her, she hugged him back.
When they released he looked a little embarrassed at his forwardness but truly happy for Rogue's sake.
"So when did you plan on telling us?" he asked her, smiling at her all the while.
"At the party," she simply replied.
"Well Happy Birthday! I know you got the best present so far and mine won't even compare but I got you something," he told her handing the box to her.
"Thank ya Scott, ya shouldn't have," she said taking the box from him. Their hands slightly touching, which sent shivers down her spine and unknown to her down his too.
"Open it," he said, she began to unwrap and when she got through the white tissue paper and when she saw what it was he said, "I know you probably don't need them anymore, you can exchange them if you want." He was a bit nervous.
She took out the deep green sheer scarf and a pair of deep green elbow length silk gloves. She stared at them. They were really beautiful. All sorts of emotions went through her head. Nobody had ever done so much for her in her life. Only the X-men. At that instant she knew that these people were her true family. And tears began to well up in her eyes and soon they were falling freely down her face.
Scott noticing this reached out and wiped some of the tears from her cheeks, "Rogue what's wrong?"
She couldn't speak and the tears kept coming. Scott didn't know what to do so he just put his arms around her and let her cry into his shirt. She wrapped her arms around him too and hugged him tightly. They sat their for a couple minutes and when her sniffles died down, Scott spoke up again, "If you didn't like them that much I could have taken them back." He joked.
She moved her arm from around him and wiped at her eyes and she laughed. She then moved out of his arms.
"Ahm really sorry Scott. Ah swear ah love your present very much. It's just that so much has happened ta meh today and its not even half over," she sighed and then continued, "Ah don't even know why ah cried. Ah neva cry."
"Don't worry I understand. You've been through a lot today. You had to let it out," Scott said.
"Those tears were definitely tears of joy. This has got ta be one o' the best days o' mah life," Rogue replied and smiled back at him.
