Lance's POV

I chuckled and smiled at her. "Come on Roguey, you used to do all the teasing when you lived with us."

Rogue went to speak but shut her mouth. I knew I caught her right into her own trap. She used to go on forever teasing me along with the others about Kitty. "Any ways, you owe me."

"Ah owe ya nothin`, Lance."

"Sure, you do." I said grinning. "You owe me a kiss."

"Ya know ah can` do dat ta ya."

"Yea, well I'm sure we can think of something." I told her pulling out a piece of paper from a nearby notebook put it to her lips and kissed her. She kissed me back. When we pulled apart there was a lipstick stain on her side of the paper.

"Well, dat's one way of doin` it."

"Yea, but next time we can always try that plastic wrap stuff you put over food." I suggested.

Rogue giggled. "Sure, dat may work too."

I smiled to her and to myself. Things were going to be great. The only main obstacle was keeping Pietro away from my girl. I'd have to come up with some sort of a plan, but I was certain I could do it.

Rogue's POV

Okay so total shock went through my body. I kissed Lance, well not really kiss you know the whole lips-to-lips kiss, but it was still a kiss. And I really didn't feel guilty about it, even if I knew I should have. Kitty would kill me, but I think I really like him. They broke up and now it was my turn to be happy. Okay so I had the biggest rush on Scott since I met him, but I'm over it. I figured that he would never see me any more then a friend, or a teammate. He liked Jean, and we all knew that she liked him back. "So.. ya do know ah would hafta return ta tha Institute one-day rahght?"

Lance nodded. "Yes, but that would only be to pick up your things."

"Are ya tryin` ta tell me somethin`, Lance?"

His face turned slightly red, I couldn't help but smile. A guy actually blushing and for me. It has to be a dream, a wonderful dream too. "Well, I'm not exactly going to let you move back in with them, you know."

"Why not?"

"The tension of kitty being your roommate and having to watch your back to make sure Jean doesn't kill you."

"Good point, an` ah got mah old room back here."

"Yea."

Pietro's POV

"Yes, I'd like to order a silk long-stem red rose." I said.

"All right, that'll be eight dollars. Will you be picking it up or would you like it delivered?"

I thought for a second. "Delivered."

"Can I get the address of where live and where you would like it delivered?"

"My address is 1586 Brotherhood Lane." (Okay so I made it up)

"All right and the place you would like it delivered."

"Its 1586 Brotherhood Lance."

"Sir that's your address."

"I know that okay. It's kind of a boarding house and it's for one of my housemates."

"All right. It'll be delivered tomorrow afternoon around two."

"Thanks." I said hanging up the phone.

Okay so I bought Rogue a silk flower, and now for gloves. I looked around my room and found eight dollars and put it aside in the top of my desk drawer. I had found an additional sixty dollars, which meant I could buy, Rogue a real nice pair of gloves and take her out to dinner. My main obstacle to doing all this. Lance.
