What was he doing? Had he completely lost his mind or what? Geez, Allana had sent him on a crash course to heartbreak. This was stupid; Rogue didn't like him. He already accepted that. But he found himself losing sight of his objective, which was to win her over. He was falling in love with his challenge. This could not happen. He was Peitro Maximoff; he lost at nothing. Then what was he doing outside the institute again? He was losing it. He was now throwing rocks at Rogue's window trying to rouse her. Come on Rogue, he thought, just wake up so I can get this over with.
"What a cliché." A voice said from behind him. He spun around to see Rogue standing there with her hands on her hips. "What are ya doin' here?"
"I... I ... Being a complete loser... I don't know." He put his hands in his pockets and looked down embarrassed.
"So ya woke up and found yourself here?"
"Yeah, that's it... so I'm going to leave now." He started past, but Rogue stopped him.
"Hold up, there has to be more to the story than that... why are ya here?"
"Well... I.... You know... kinda.... Well... you know..." He was babbling now, could things get any worse?
"No Ah don't know, how 'bout ya tell me?" She smiled.
"Well-you-see-it's-like-this-I-sorta-kinda-in-a-way-I-like-you-I-mean-I-really-like-you-it-was-just-a-challenge-before-but-I-really-like-you-and-I-know-you-don't-like-me-or-anything-and-that-you-like-Scott-and-that-it-wouldn't-work-because-of-the-whole-not-touching-thing-but-I-just-wanted-to-tell-you-that-I-like-you." He said this extremely fast... too fast he hoped for Rogue to understand. He was making a complete ass of himself by even being here, much less giving his heart away on a silver platter for her to tear up.
She didn't say anything for a long time, almost as if she was trying to compute what he had said. "No, you're not supposed to like me! No one's supposed to like me, I'm ugly, I can't touch anybody, I'm a freak... you're not supposed to like me... It's not supposed to be like this." She was crying now.
He tried to touch her, to tell her that she wasn't any of those things to him. That she meant everything to him. But she just wrenched out of his grasp and tried to run. He took a deep breath praying that he was doing the right thing and ran after to stop her. She didn't run this time, almost as if she knew he wouldn't give up.
They were in some sort of garden now. She sat down and tried to control her crying. He sat down beside her determined to have her see the truth. He took her into his arms and let her cry, stroking her hair and telling her that it was all right and he was there for her.
She looked up at him with pure happiness through her tears. "Why are ya doin' this?"
He smiled down at her and carefully wiped away the tears with the edge of his shirt. "Because I love you..." He lowered his head to kiss her, he wasn't thinking about the consequences of this one innocent act. All he wanted was to show her and him-self what it was to love.
Then he woke up. He glanced around his surroundings; he was no longer in the garden with Rogue. He was in HIS room, in HIS bed, by HIMSELF. Not almost kissing Rogue, not expressing his love for her. Alone. It had been a dream. A stupid dream. He hadn't gone to the mansion, he hadn't thrown rocks at Rogue's window, he hadn't laid his heart on the line, he hadn't listened to her cry, and most of all, he hadn't almost kissed her. He sat up carefully and picked up the paper on his side table drawer. The picture of Rogue stared at him. She had no idea how he felt. How he felt? This wasn't about the challenge any more. He really wanted her. When did that happen, he wondered.
