The room like just about every other room in the house was icy cool but looking at the sleeping Kitty, his once love he saw that she couldn't be, for right there sleeping next to her with his arm around her was the metal man himself, Piotr. She left me for that shit he thought to himself and walked slowly over to her sleeping body. He carefully as to not wake her brushed the side of her face with the back of his hand her skins still as soft as an angels he thought thinking back to all the times that he had ran his fingers down her angel skin and now he could not any longer.

"I miss those days" he whispered to the quite room, tears now streaming down his cheeks in sorrow.

When Rogue's eyes reopened from closing them tightly from the run to where ever it was that Pietro was taking her she became too shocked to speak. "Yeah I know" Pietro said seeing the stunned look on her face and in her emerald eyes that he could still see the same pain in that he saw years before. "I never thought I'd be here again either." Slowly now Pietro and Rogue began to enter the broken down brotherhood house.

It was without a doubt a wreck, windows cracked and smashed, trash and dust everywhere and not to mention the house was falling apart everywhere you looked. "What happened ta this place?" Rogue couldn't help but ask forgetting completely that she had just been kidnapped a thing that Pietro had been hoping for and smiled sweetly at her because of it

"Bout a week after ya left" he said the smile on his face falling and cracking into a thousand pieces. There was a long pause before he continued a strange look in his eyes as if he were recalling every minute of the incident again. "When Mystique heard of you leaving town an' all she well went nuts" he looked at her as he set her down in one of the somewhat broken chairs in the room, then walked over to the couch, the same one in fact that he had rested her beaten body on so many years ago the day he had saved her life. Pietro did not say more after that just began cleaning it off and fixing in so that it was alright to sit on.

"So it was my fault then?" she asked even though deep down inside she already knew the answer and did not wish to hear it again.

"Sadly yeah pretty much" he stated coolly and coldly as he walked towards her and taking her hand walked with her to the couch. There was a sudden sad look on both faces to which Pietro, who could not contain himself any longer said the thing that had been eating up at him for years "Why did you leave" Rogue looked up at him and opened her mouth to say something but he continued "when you had already chosen who you really loved"

Logan awoke with a grunt and his claws ripping threw his bed sheets. He sighed swinging his legs over the bed side and saying in annoyance as he held his head in his hands "That's the fifth time this week" He growled under his breath but never the less stood from the bed and walked across the room and left it, shredding his pillow to pieces however before he do so.

There was no need to worry, he knew this for a fact, and Rogue was a tough one and never asked for help, a thing that Logan guessed was mainly his fault. Stripes always took ta me best he mentally reminded himself with a sly smile thinking back to all the good and fun times that they had shared with one another. Like a daughter ta me he thought again as he entered the infirmary to check in on her however became shocked to only see Wanda at the far end of the room, John sitting next to her bed playing with something carefully in his hands. "Where's Stripes?" He asked him quietly as he walked towards him, his curiosity getting the best of him for the heavy smell of ashes and fire covered him. He better not have burned down anything else

John smiled wickedly up at him and said "She's probably back in her room sleeping. Caught the Shelia downstairs later" He handed Logan carefully the thing that he had been playing with this whole time.

Logan smiled down at him and said with a huff "Good luck with that bub" and walked out of the room down towards where Rogue's new room laid, he knew, thought that if, maybe he saw Rogue sleeping peacefully all would be alright once more and he could sleep again, in the little of a bed he had left.

When Logan however finally reached Rogue's bedroom he did not like the first thing that reached his mutant keen sense of smell. With out knocking first or all else Logan swung the oak door open quickly and ran across the bedroom "No" he said but it was barely heard above his growl. His claws ripped out of his knuckles as he ran out of her room and down the hall, he didn't care if he was sleeping or not and he knew for a fact that he wouldn't care either.

"What are ya talkin' bout?" she asked Pietro annoyed, folding her arms over her chest as she did so

"Rogue we were best friends I know best of anyone what you were like…afraid" Rogue hated this and he knew it and used it against her.

"Ah know ya don' have ta rub it in so what ya getting' at that ah haven't figured out ma self Pie?"

He smiled at her as he moved his face closed to hers so that they were only inches apart when he said this "You were afraid to let your true feelings show because of your powers hurting the ones you cared for most" Rogue opened her mouth to say something but he continued "You were afraid to let anyone in because you knew for a fact that if you did so they would with out a doubt get hurt" Rogue gulped because she knew without a doubt what he was now getting at "Rogue" he said again "Why did you leave town if you had already chosen the one you loved and had control of your powers? Why was it that you left when you had found happiness?"

Logan kicked his bedroom door open causing it to fall off its hinges and fall apart to the floor. He awoke with a jump and groan when he saw finally what Logan had done. He opened his mouth to curse at him in French but Logan beat him to it "Gumbo get the fuck out of bed now!" He paused at which he ran over to him and pulled him up and out himself, Remy only in a pair of green boxers at the time "An' put on some pants!" he yelled at him letting go of his arm which caused him to fall to the floor with a loud thump

"What be da matter mon amie it be--"

"Rogue's gone Pietro has her now!" He growled out now both Logan and Remy's eyes were flaring up in rage.

So what'd you all think? Review please!

Next Chappy: Rogue and Pietro talk more, Rogue tires to run off and avoid her answer to his question. The Xmen can't seem to found Pietro and the only one that might know where he went off to is still asleep with a fire crazy aussy watching over her.

Byes!
