Chapter Fourteen – The Visitation And Reactions
Rogue's POV
This is it. The Saturday morning I dread. We're going back to school and Scott's there waiting for me. I hate my life. Grr. All of the students stood in front of the bus, with their bags, waiting for Ivan. I hung my head low my eyes filled with worry. Pietro saw me.
"Something wrong?" he asked me
"No"
"You're lying"
"Pietro," I sighed, "Today, this bus is taking us back t' good ol' Bayville High and Scott is waiting there fo' meh. If he evah fahnds out that we're going out, Ah swear Ah'll die"
"You won't die"
"All aboard!" Ivan yelled and everyone got inside the bus.
It was a long way back to Bayville, but we managed to get there. I looked out the window and saw Scott, Jean, Kurt and Evan. They saw me staring out the window and waved at me. I waved back weakly. The bus made a complete stop and everyone stepped outside. Kitty ran past me and I saw her give them a big hug.
"It's okay Rogue"
"Ah hope so" I sighed and got off the bus. The first mutant I saw that waved at me was Scott and Jean
"Rogue! Over here!"
"Hey" I smiled weakly
"How vas it vith Pietro?" Kurt asked
"Uh…it was okay…Ah guess" I said looking at the side. I saw Pietro smiling at me and I smiled back weakly. I looked at Jean and saw her give me a wink. Just then, Evan walked towards Pietro who was staring blankly at me.
"What are you staring at, Maximoff?" Evan threatened
"Nothing that concerns you Daniels!"
"The teacher must be nuts to get you and Rogue paired up!"
"I can't even live a day with her!" Pietro told Evan loudly enough for me to hear
"Just don't go near her ever again, Maximoff!"
"Why would I even got near her in the first place?" Pietro smirked, "Your brain's slow Daniels!"
Evan glared at him and was about to jump and attack him. I saw them and quickly rushed over them.
"Evan!" I yelled, holding him back
"Let go Rogue! I'm about to pound this creep!"
"He's not worth it! C'mon. Scott's driving us back to the Institute" I said, pulling Evan towards the car
"Fine!" he said, escaping out of my grip and walked towards Scott's car by himself. I looked at Pietro, smiled and winked at him.
We arrived at the Institute. Evan was still muttering about how I shouldn't have interfered with his and Pietro's "argument". I ignored him. I saw Logan with the same usual frown, Ororo by his side and was waiting for us. The Professor and Hank were also watching us drive inside. Kitty jumped off the car and ran towards the door.
"How was it Half Pint?" Logan asked
"It was so great! I had fun!"
"What about you, Rogue?" Ororo asked
"It was alraht Ah guess"
"No problems with Pietro?" the Professor asked me kindly
"Er…sort of"
He sort of smiled at me and gave me a wink. Oh yeah. He's telepathic. He knows everything. I bet he knew what happened the whole time in the project.
[Not everything, Rogue. I wanted you to tell me about it. I didn't want to go inside your head and know everything]
I looked at the Professor and kinda smiled at him.
All of us went inside the door. Kitty and I rushed inside our room and started unpacking.
"I bet the Professor knows" Kitty said
"Obviously" I said, "Don't evah mention anything about Pietro and meh to Scott or Logan OR Evan. The three of them will snap"
"I promise Rogue"
Suddenly, the phone rang beside Kitty's bed. Kitty phased through her bed and answered it.
"Hello?" she answered in a perky voice
"Kitty, it's Pietro. Is Rogue there?"
"Hold on…ROGUE! It's for you!"
"Y' didn't have t' scream. Ah'm right here" I told her and got the phone off her hands, "Hello?"
"It's Pietro" I heard Pietro's voice in the other end say
"Oh hey" I smiled to myself
"Did you tell Goggle Boy already?"
"No. And Ah'm not planning to tell him, Logan or Evan"
"I'm sure they'll flip"
"Yeah. So why did y' call?"
"I wanted to hear your voice again"
"We've only been apart for…20 minutes"
"I know. I miss you already"
I looked behind me and saw Logan passing by our room.
"Roguey?"
"Ah miss y' too. Logan just passed by"
"Oh. Anyway, I just wanted to say that. Bye Rogue. I love you"
"Ah love you too" and the both of us hanged up
"I love you too" Kitty mocked, "Logan better not like, catch you saying that"
"Shut up" Rogue said
Suddenly, I heard the doorbell ring. I looked at Kitty and the both of us phased through the floor, landing in the middle of the hallway, in front of Scott.
"Whoa. You shouldn't have done that" Scott said, walking towards the door
"Who could be visiting us?" Logan growled and reached for the handle
Soon, everyone was there, looking at the person who was at the door. Logan opened it and stood there was a silver-haired boy. Scott gasped and so did everyone else, except me and Kitty of course.
"MAXIMOFF!" Scott and Evan yelled, "What are you doing here!?"
"Pietro!!" I yelled and got on my feet
"I'm here to see Roguey"
"Well, too bad she isn't available" Scott spat and slammed the door
"Think you're fast enough" a voice drawled behind him
"Huh?" Scott turned around and saw Pietro standing there, "WHAT DO YOU WANT ANYWAY!? IT'S NOT LIKE ROGUE LIKES YOU!! IT WAS JUST SOME PROJECT THAT WENT NUTS THAT YOU GOT PAIRED UP WITH HER!"
"Scott!" Jean and I said at the same time
I got up on my feet and ran towards the both of them.
"Rogue! Tell this jerk to bug off! You don't like him right?"
I didn't answer. I looked away and silence filled the room. I heard Scott and Evan gasp. I saw Logan frown and growl.
"Rogue…you mean…him…you…what?" Scott stuttered
"Scott…"
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I would like to know that too" Logan growled
"Ah didn't want either of y', including Evan t' know that Pietro and Ah are…together"
"What!?" Scott and Evan yelled together
"I don't believe this…I mean, why? I thought you hated each other"
"A girl can change her mind, Scott" I spat, "And watch"
I walked towards Pietro, took off my glove and touched him.
"Ah can touch him. And Ah'm happy that he can touch meh"
"Professor…how come?" Scott asked all confused
"Pietro, would you like to tell us?"
"Somebody once told me that if I love someone, I'll be immune to her powers and she'll be my source of happiness through all the pain. And I love her"
"This is crazy. This is so funny I forgot to laugh" Scott said sarcastically and walked out of the room
"Scott…wait" Jean went after him
"I don't believe it Jean. First Kitty and now Rogue"
"Scott, they love each other. You just can't force someone out of love. I know for a fact that Pietro's been taking care of her on that trip and Rogue cares for him. He truly loves her and he won't do anything to hurt her"
"I guess…you're right" Scott sighed, "Fine. I'll deal with it"
"That's why I like you" Jean smiled and hugged Scott who turned crimson
