Jean looked up. 'Where is she Professor?'

'In the woods, some sort of cave, she had just used her powers. I will have Ororo and Logan meet you kids there.'

Jean sighed with relief and looked at Scott. "The professor found her."

Scott nodded. "Attention everyone. It seems that Rogue has been found so the search is off. We thank you for your help either way."

Everyone started talking and left. "Vhere zis she?" Kurt asked.

"In the woods. Some sort of cave."

"I know where it is." Lance said as he stood behind the X-Men with Toad and Fred. "Peitro goes there a lot."

"I knew he had something to do with this." Evan said angrily.

"Then let's like go." Kitty said.

Ororo saw the cave and carefully went in. "Rogue?" She asked as she heard crying.

Rogue still huddled in the corner hugging her knees. "Ah didn` mean to."

Ororo looked and saw Peitro laying on the ground unconscious from her touch. "Honey it's okay. The others are coming."

Rogue looked up at Ororo. "Ah didn` mean to touch him."

"I know." She said as she looked up and saw Logan.

"You do know you gave everyone a scare stripes." He told her as Peitro began to stir. "You okay kid?"

Peitro nodded and looked at Rogue who had tears in her eyes. "Roguey it's okay. I'm fine."

Ororo and Logan exchanged looks realizing what had happened. "We'll let you two talk." She said leading Logan out of the cave.

"Ah thought ya were never goin` to speak to me again after what ah did."

Peitro shook his head. "Roguey listen to me. It's my fault too you know. I knew you couldn't touch any one and I guess I wanted to kiss you so bad I forgot about it."

"But..." Rogue started to say but Peitro shook his head. "Don't worry about it. We'll find some way around your powers sooner or later."

Scott came to a halt when he saw Ororo and Logan standing outside a cave. "Is she in there?"

Ororo nodded as Scott went to go in. "Not so fast there bub." Logan said.

"But..."

"Rogue is fine." Ororo said. "She and Peitro should be talking right now."

"Talking is the least of our problems Ro." Logan chuckled. "Don't try reading our minds Red, we won't tell anything."

Jean sighed. "We'll find out soon enough."

"Vell how about now." Kurt said teleporting.

"Elf get back here!" Logan yelled.

Rogue and Peitro heard Logan and turned to see Kurt next to them. "Vhat's going on?"

Peitro chuckled. "Another time blue dude." He said standing up put his hand out. "Come on, Summers is probably throwing a huge fit now."

Rogue nodded and took Peitro's hand as he helped her to her feet. Grabbing they're packs they went out of the cave. "Vait for me!" Kurt said teleporting out of the cave.

"Well?" Kitty asked.

"You von't believe your eyes. It's too terrible to describe."

Ororo moved out of the way as Rogue and Peitro came out of the cave. "Patch things up?"

Rogue blushed slightly and nodded. "I'm confused." Fred said.

Lance said. "You're always confused unless it's about food, but I am too kind of."

"You knew exactly where she was the entire time?" Scott asked Peitro angrily.

"Yeah, I did. I gave that note to Risty, also made sure none of my fingerprints were on it." Peitro grinned. "What are you so angry about? It's your fault she took off."

"Peitro, don` start now." Rogue told him.

"You're okay right?" Scott asked ignoring Peitro.

"Ah'm fine." She said.

"I'm so sorry Rogue. I didn't mean to forget about our homework thing, honest."

"It's all right Scott. Ah don` blame ya any more."

"Did you want to do it tonight?"

"Ah can` tonight."

"Why?" Jean asked as she read Rogue's mind as easy as a book and gasped. "Oh my god."

"Ask Jean."

Scott and the others looked at Jean who smiled. "She has a date tonight."

"What?" They asked shocked looking at Rogue. "Who?"

"Just a guy ah kissed."

"She's kissed a guy?" Kitty asked looking at Peitro. "Oh my like totally god. That is going to cause total chaos at the mansion."

"I think something could be worked out half pint." Logan said. "Come on, let's all go back to the mansion and have a nice long talk."

"Does this mean we have to come to?" Todd asked.

"Ah guess, ah mean Peitro's goin` too."

"He is?" Lance asked.

Peitro shrugged. "Hey, I can't go against her. She may never kiss me again."

Rogue covered Peitro's mouth with her gloves hand. "No givin` away secrets."

Scott shook his head. "This is unreal."

"Well it could have been you kissing her if you hadn't blown it." Peitro told him grabbing his backpack with one hand and Rogue's hand with his other. "Come on, we'll race you."

Xavier was happy to know that Rogue was all right. "You promise not to do this again?"

"Ah promise." She said nodding.

"Trust me she won't do it ever again." Peitro said smiling as he took Rogue's hand.

Scott glared over at Peitro and Rogue holding hands. That could have been me, he thought to himself and turned away.
