Lance's POV

I sighed and looked at Rogue. She was pretty angry, I think mostly at Summers and Jean. Didn't blame her though. "Rogue you know you're always welcomed back with us."

Rogue is not going to rejoin the Brotherhood." Scott told me angrily.

"I don't think it's your decision on that." I told him.

I glanced over at Kitty who looked completely confused. Sorry Kitty but I like Rogue, I thought to myself. I heard a scuff and saw Jean glaring at me. Damn telepath.

"Well, why not let Rogue go back to them, Cyclops?" Jean told him.

Cyclops shook his head. "Forget it Jean. She's part of our family now, not theirs."

"Why don` ya let me speak fer mahself, Scott." Rogue asked him.

"Rogue, I'm only looking out of you. And living with them is worse then living on the streets."

"I wouldn't exactly say that." Boom Boom said finally speaking up. "I left you guys to be with the Brotherhood."

"That was like different though." Shadowcat said.

Rogue's POV

"How is it different?" I asked her. "I left tha Brotherhood ta join ya`ll an` all ah get is watched lahke twenty-four seven."

"Rogue we can discuss this later." Jean told me.

I shook my head. "No ah think we should discuss it now. Yer not exactly the innocent one. Yer tha only one who doesn` trust me too."

"I do trust you Rogue." Jean insisted.

"Really, ya do?" I asked moving next to Cyclops and put my arm on his shoulder. I saw her narrow her eyes at me angrily.

"Okay, ladies come on." Cyclops said.

"Any girl dat looks at Scott let alone he looks at ya get jealous. Why don` ya just tell him ya lahke him an` get it over with. It's obvious he lahkes ya too." I said moving away from Scott now.

I looked at the other members of the X-Men and then at the members of the Brotherhood. They were all waiting for Jean and Scott to respond. "I think you're jealous." Jean said breaking the ice.

"What are ya talkin` `bout?"

"Your jealous cause you're not the one who Scott likes. I know you had a crush on Scott before you joined us and you still have one."

"Stay out of mah head."

"I don't need to be in your head, Rogue. You're also jealous cause you can't ever be loved. You think because your powers keep you from being touched or loved that you have to make everyone else's life around you a living hell, right?"

"Leave her alone!" I heard someone say angrily. I couldn't tell if it was Lance or Pietro though.

Pietro's POV

I don't even remember yelling it, but I know I felt my lips move. "You know you may be one of the most popular girls in Bayville High, Jean, but you're also the most snobbish. You pretend to be nice to everyone, but we all know that secretly you hate it."

"He's right though. You've never been nice to me, yo." Toad said.

"This is stupid." Jean said.

"Why, cause it's true?" Rogue asked her. "Yer only nahce ta me when Scott's around of tha professor. Ah think yer jealous of me."

"Ha. Jealous of you? Why would I be jealous of you Rogue? You can't touch someone without hurting them. Or putting them into a coma, in case you forgot that first boy you ever touched, Cody was his name I think?"

I saw Rogue glaring at Jean like she wanted to kill her. I didn't blame her if she wanted to. "You know what, while you kids think of what the meaning of friendship is, we're taking Rogue with us." I said as I quickly ran over, grabbed Rogue and moved next to the Brotherhood.

"You're not taking her anywhere."

As you guessed it was they're infamous leader, Cyclops. "I don't think you got any choice on that."

We moved back some as Avalanche smiled and sent a tremor towards then sending them all to the ground. I saw Shadowcat had some tears in her eyes, but ignored them.
