"Pietro? Pieeeeeetro?" As she made her way through the brotherhood house a
wave of nostalgia, along with that of nausea, hit her. Remy… She shook her
head firmly. No. That filthy cajun wasn't in her life anymore. It was
Pietro she was looking for NOT him. She smiled bitterly. ~*If ya catch him
with a whore at least ya'll know ya deserved it.*~ She shuddered
momentarily at the thought then continued searching. After her had left the
room Rogue had stood there for
a couple of minutes trying to comprehend what had just happened. "Well if you feel that way..." His words seemed to jump out from her memory. Rogue paused. . He didn't think that… no… he couldn't have thought that.. but what if he did? What if he thought that she was saying no… to him? In a flash she had ran out of the room searching high and low, to try to explain, to try to apologise. That currently brought her where she was now, having searched all the rooms of the house to no avail. ~*Kitchen, check. Bathrooms, check. Bedrooms, check. He couldn't have gotten out without her at least hearing the front door shut. Basement, check.*~ That left only one last place… Rogue paled. .
She sped as fast as her legs could carry her to her room; reaching there she literally tore open her window in her frantic rush. Climbing swiftly onto the roof, she came face to face to her nightmare. There, feet only 'just' on the roof edge, he stood. Arms spread open, eyes closed Rogue watched in horror as he slowly tilted his feet forward…
"NOOOOOO!" with one quick sweep Rogue physically dragged the shocked boy to the middle of the roof.
"Pietro what the hell dya think ya'r doin' ? Ah'm so sorry 'bout what happened, Ah just saw the rain, then I saw him, then ya called n' ah saw ya, an' …What the fuck. Wby dya wanna kill yaself fo?"
Pietro simply stared at the babbling southern in a mixture of shock and pure confusion. The last phrase out of her mouth jolted him though. "Whaaat? Whatdyameankillmyself??!?"
Rogue stopped and stared at him. "Isn't that what you, I mean weren't you…" her sentence was broken by the sound of Pietro's laughter. "You thought? Me? Jump?!" Rogue started laughing herself, the absurdity of the mistake hitting her. For a while all that could be heard was the sweet mixture of their laughter, mingling in the breeze, yet slowly the laughter died down, filling the air with a tense silence.
"Soooo.." .
"So.." he faced her, catching a faint blush appear on her cheeks.
"What were ya doin up here?"
He turned and looked out into the darkening sky.
"I dunno. Just thinking. It's calming I guess."
"Oh." Another silence filled the air. "Why were ya on the ledge?"
"Trying to fly." She looked at him in confusion. There was a small pause before he continued.. "When I run, everything blurs past me, the wind rushing through every bone in my body, the pure exhiliration of it bringing me up… yet all this happens on the ground. Sometimes I look at birds, see them fly and wonder how it feels. After all if this is how I feel on land, I don't think I could even begin to imagine the rush when it occurs in the air."
Rogue looked at him as he talked, watching him as he slowly moved over the edge, closing his eyes… only to look down in disappointment. Her mind was set in a resolution. He was her friend. He had taken care of her. And she… had hurt him. Now it was time to pay him back for his kindness, she could make his dream come true. Slowly closing the gap between them she wrapped her arms around his lean, slightly muscular body.
Pietro almost leaped out of his skin as a pair of arms snaked round his waist. His stomach plummeted with dread. ~*Not again…*~ Yet her voice broke into his depressing thoughts. "Close your eyes… Pietro." Hearing his name brought his heart almost leaping from his chest, his mind half in total shock and half still in doubt as he followed her command. As he did he was shocked to suddenly feel the wind whipping past him as the two fell off the roof, her arms being the only comfort he had. Then it happened. Beyond his wildest dreams she seemed to lift him. It was even better than he had ever expected, the wind whipping past as his body reveled in being weightless. The two of them breaking into the light clouds as the swirled and soared above birds and buildings. And most cherished by him the arms. The two soft arms that gripped firmly yet comfartaby.Holding him. He could die in those arms. Hell, maybe he was already dead, flying in heaven with an angel…
She settled down carefully on the rooftop making sure to land slowly for his sake. He turned round breathless. "H-howwha.." She settled her finger on his lips. "Just a little trick ah've had up my sleeve..." she winked, grinning happily. She tip-toed and planted a kiss on his forehead. "Ah wanna apologise for being such a fool in there." His face winced slightly at the reminder. "Ah hope it was enough, ah mean compared to all ya've done for me…" Her face suddenly fell as she looked at him in earnest. He looked down at her expectant face and smiled warmly.
"It was more than enough Rogue. Thank you."
She smiled again. "Friends?"
"Friends." As they hugged, Rogue felt a little lingering uncertainty. She could've sworn that when she said 'friends' a look of pain had glimmered over his face. Was what she had given him enough? She knew it could never make up for the accident in the room, but had he really accepted her apology? She caused her troubled mind to rest as her head rested against his shoulder.
