He knew that look. It was sorrow. He didn't want her to walk away, not like that. But now that he had her attention, what did he say? Uh... sorry. For what? Spying? He didn't know. He wished this was easier or at least something he knew he could handle.
"Can Ah go?" He looked at her, in shades of red, she was still gorgeous.
"What are you going to do?"
"Besides ignore, Peitro?"
"I'm not too fond of him either, but you can't ignore him forever." What was he saying?
"Yes Ah can."
"Rogue."
"What?" She looked annoyed now.
"Never mind."
"Can Ah go then?"
"Sure." He let go of her arm and she went back to sitting with Jasper.
Stupid, you let her go. So what, she obviously likes Peitro better, if she didn't she wouldn't be so upset. If you keep telling yourself that you'll never get her.
"Scott." He whirled around to face Allana.
"Where's Peitro?" He wasn't sure why he cared.
"Waiting to talk to Rogue. He won't leave till he sees her."
"Then he'll be here awhile."
"Have you talked to Rogue?" She started for the stairs.
He sighed, "Kind of." He followed her up.
"That would be a no."
"And what do you want me to say, Allana?"
"The truth."
"Oh, yeah that'll go over well. 'Rogue the reason I followed you is because I don't want you to be with Peitro, I want you to be with me.'"
"So, what's the problem?"
"What do you mean what's the problem? I can't just tell her that."
"Sure you can, it's the one thing you didn't do with Jean, and look where you are."
He cringed slightly "What do you know, you don't even have a boyfriend."
"Yeah, I don't have a family either, Scott. But, I know about it. Besides, you don't have a girlfriend either, and your way is certainly not working."
"My life was normal before you came along and messed it up."
"Oh sure having optics blast from your eyes is really normal." She had a point, it wasn't exactly normal, but it was for him.
"Better than having you around."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Think about it, or is that hard?"
Allana popped her knuckles a sure sign that he was reaching to the point of no return. "It's certainly hard for you Mr. 'I can't do anything for myself.'"
"What are you talking about?"
"Oh, you like, Mr. 'I'm blind to everything' better. Okay."
He wanted to hit her; she didn't know when to quit. Then again, neither did he. "You are so immature."
"Look who's talking?"
"I am the leader here, so back off."
"I don't care if you're the freaking president, you still don't know what's right in front of you."
"All I see is someone who won't leave me alone." She looked frustrated and annoyed he didn't care.
"You would."
"What am I supposed to see?"
"If you're too stupid not to see it on your own than screw it."
"You are so irritating! First you want to insult me, then you want to help, and now you're just playing mind games. Pick one and stick with it."
"I'm talking about Rogue, dumb ass. About how you can't see what's in front of you with her. So just go on about your day not trying anything, then at least you'll be sulking about someone other than Jean. But, you'll still be sulking, and that's no one's fault, but your own."
"I won't be sulking, and you want to know why?"
"Why?"
"Because I'm going to talk to Rogue, and I'll show you that I can handle this."
"You go do that, Scott, you go do that." She narrowed her eyes.
He growled slightly and turned to go downstairs, he didn't notice Allana smirking as he left.
"At least you two are talking again, huh?" He turned around to see Jasper.
"Yeah, but is that a good thing?"
"Considering what you guys are butting heads about lately, no."
"Why does she have to judge everything I do?"
Jasper shrugged, "Who else will?"
That was true, no one ever got into his face the way Allana did. But, what had she meant about Rogue? This some how kept getting even more and more confusing and he didn't like it one bit. He was going to talk to Rogue; it was what he had told Allana he was going to do. He just wasn't sure how.
****************
More fighting... tsk tsk... they'll never get along... Anywayz... so yeah... that's chapter 19 for ya... Peitro's there and not happy... Rogue's not happy... Scott's not happy cause Rogue's not happy... and Allana... well... Allana's... Allana. I guess we'll just have to wait and see... Later!
