~~~~~~~~~~ In Rogue's Room ~~~~~~~~~~
"They decided to do what!?" Rogue shouted in anger. "I can't believe them. If they can't take that BIG hint you gave them, then they are such losers!!!" Rogue was furious at her teammates, and hated them for being so stupid.
"Yeah? Well, I have to ask you what you thought of the plan, because I know Jean's gonna start guessing today." Rogue heard Kitty say from the bathroom.
It was one of those schooldays, where there was no privacy except for Rogue's room. Though she usually preferred to be left alone and liked that her room was never crawling with people, she enjoyed today's company.
Kitty came out of the bathroom wearing a beautiful, mid-thigh, Robin's Egg Blue, dress. "So?" She asked with a smile, "What do you think?" She asked as she twirled around once for a full affect.
"You look beautiful." Rogue said in a somewhat dreamy voice. "I wish I could look like that again."
Kitty was shocked when she heard Rogue say that. "But you can."
"No I can't."
"But why?"
"Because I don't know how. I mean, I used to be just like you, well except for the valley thing, but you've grown out of that. And, well, I don't remember the walk, the laugh, the boys, or the talk." Rogue said looking at her feet. "I only dream about them." Rogue looked up to see Kitty smiling at her. "Why are you looking at me that way?" Rogue asked almost scared of the reply.
Kitty walked up to Rogue and grabbed her gloved hand. "Because we're going to my room and I'm gonna give you the best makeover ever." Kitty said with a sparkle in her eyes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~ In Kitty's Room ~~~~~~~~~~
"All right, here I come." Rogue came out of the bathroom slowly. When she came out, Kitty smiled with pleasure. "What?" Rogue asked feeling uneasy.
"You look beautiful." Kitty said to Rogue feeling a sudden wave of pride rush over her. "But please, don't let me be the judge of that, let the other kids." She said happily.
Rogue, unbelieving, walked over to the mirror and looked at herself. "I do." Rogue whispered to herself and looked at her whole attire. She was wearing a Sea Green, spaghetti strap, low-cut, mid-thigh, dress that made her look like she had an hourglass figure, but was still a very casual dress. She had her tied part up with a Sea Green ribbon, and some knee high boots that were black. Her eyes were the same exact color of the dress and ribbon. All of her hair was curled to make it look like she had a perm. She even wore some new black gloves that Kitty was going to give her for her birthday this year. She turned around and hugged Kitty tightly.
"What was that for?" Kitty asked after Rogue had stopped suffocating her.
"Kitty, you made me beautiful." Rogue said, amazed that her friend didn't see why she got a hug.
"Well, I'm not done yet, we still have to put make up on you." Kitty said with a smile, and Rogue smiled back sitting obediently where she was told.
~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the Breakfast Room ~~~~~~~~~~~
"All right everybody." Kitty said coming in. "I have a surprise for you." She said smiling slyly.
"What?" Everybody asked sounding really bored.
She looked back behind the wall and mouthed "Ready?" She smiled and turned back to her audience. "I would like to introduce you to the new and improved Rogue."
Rogue stepped in feeling a bit nauseous. She smiled the best she could and said in the most calm voice she could muster, "Hello everyone." Everyone's jaws dropped open and their eyes looked like they were about to pop out. Rogue and Kitty smiled with satisfaction.
"Okay who are you and what have you done with Rogue?" Kurt asked in a very serious voice.
"It's me, I promise. I just thought I'd make a little change that's all." Rogue said shrugging. She walked over to her and Kitty's seats.
"So?" Kitty asked, getting really ticked off that no one was making a nice comment on her handiwork. "What do you think of Rogue's new outfit?" She asked looking at no one in particular.
"I think she looks like a diamond." Jean said smiling at Rogue and then looking over at Kitty. Kitty smiled back at Jean, as did Rogue.
"Ororo walked in with more pancakes and almost dropped the plate when she saw Rogue. "Rogue! You look absolutely stunning." She said with a smile on her face.
"Thank you Ororo." Rogue said now feeling uneasy about how the guys felt. 'Like they would even tell you.' Rogue said rolling her eyes at how stupid she had been to think that the guys would make nice comments on her today.
"Yeah, you do." Rogue looked across the table at Evan, who was smiling at her with a serious look on his face.
"Thank you, Evan. It means a lot to me that at least one guy could be kind enough to give me a complement." She smiled at him and he smiled back.
Evan felt his face growing warmer, so he quickly looked down at his pancakes and started to eat again.
Rogue was shocked to see Evan blush when she talked to him. She quickly involved herself with her pancakes, as he was. 'Okay, what does this mean. I believe if a guy blushes when you thank him and compliment him at the same time, he's either embarrassed or he likes you. OMG, what if Evan likes me?' Rogue thought as she was eating her pancakes.
"All right everyone, it's time to go." Scott's voice cut into Rogue's thoughts. She looked up along with the others. "So, whoever wants a ride better hurry." Scott said warning everybody.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On the Way to School ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hey, Rogue, I'm happy you could join us this time." Scott said smiling into the rear view mirror.
"So am I." Rogue said looking at Jean, and then at Kitty. Kitty nodded her head as if answering an unspoken question. "Um, Jean?" Rogue asked shyly.
"Yeah? What is it Rogue?" Jean asked, without a hint knowledge in her voice.
"I was wondering if I might be able to talk to you when we get inside." Rogue said looking at Jean as if to tell her what was going on.
Jean took the hint and nodded, looking as though she was going to get totally bad news.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Inside the School ~~~~~~~~~~~
Rogue, Kitty, and Jean were in an empty classroom before school. "What did you want to talk to me about?" Jean asked.
"I want you to go into my mind and find out why I don't want you having the surprise party for me, okay?" Rogue said really quickly, but slowly enough so that Jean could understand her.
"But, why can't you just explain—…"
"Because I don't feel like explaining right now." Rogue said, very aware that they could get caught in here and very scared that they would.
"Okay, okay. I will." Jean said closing her eyes and concentrating. Rogue closed her eyes too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~A Few Seconds Later ~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jean tore from Rogue's mind with a gasp. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Rogue fell to the floor screaming and held her head.
"I'm sorry." Jean said, knowing that it was her fault for not easing her way out of Rogue's mind.
Rogue didn't say anything just sat on the floor in a ball holding her head. Kitty and Jean bent down to try and make sure she was all right. They heard the door open behind them. Jean and Kitty, turned around shocked, it was Mr. McCoy.
He surveyed the scene quickly and came over to kneel next to Rogue. He looked at Jean. "What's going on?" He asked in an accusing voice.
"We were just talking and sometimes she gets really bad headaches. She must've gotten one and she just collapsed on the floor. Is she all right?" Jean asked Mr. McCoy.
"I'm fine." They heard Rogue say. "Just a little headache that's all." She said as Kitty helped her up.
"Are you sure?" Mr. McCoy asked, very aware of what really happened since he had kind of been watching.
"Yes." Rogue said making eye contact with him.
'She's a very good liar' Mr. McCoy thought smiling as the girls left his room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the Hall ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Are you sure you're all right Rogue? I really didn't mean to go that fast, I'm really sorry." Jean said, feeling very guilty for what she had done.
"I'm fine Jean. Or, at least, I will be as soon as everyone stops staring at me." Rogue said looking around at all of the people in the hall. Everyone had their eyes glued to Rogue, and most of the guys had little side smiles. Rogue looked at Kitty and Jean. "Why are they staring at me like I'm an alien?" Rogue asked, loud enough for it to echo in the hall. Rogue turned back around and smiled with satisfaction for the triumph of her plan. "It worked."
Jean and Kitty shook their heads sadly with slight smiles on their faces. This was going to be a looooong day.
