Dear Rogue,

There are so many things that I want to tell you that this little letter will not be enough. When we first met, we were not exactly the best of friends and I resented you a little, but as I have gotten to know you, I have learned the depth of your spirit and your capacity to want to do the right thing. I have learned to see life as being very precious because of you, and that is something that I could never repay. Being a mutant means being persecuted because you are different than the norm. For as long as I know, I resented that, but since meeting you, I have learned to accept my lot in life and appreciate what I have. Thank you for that. However, I mostly wanted to write this letter to let you know that I think I have fallen in love with you.

When you told me that you were going on a road trip, I felt that you were just doing it to run away from what happened with Gambit and so as a fellow x-man, I felt it was my duty to tag along and keep you from running away and staying away. However, as we proceeded across country, I discovered the depth of who you were and how your beauty goes far more than past the skin. That day when we stopped at a hotel and you released all the emotion going on inside of you, I was glad that I could be there to protect you and take care of you. I loved stroking your hair and letting you know that everything would be all right. When you fell asleep on my shoulder, I felt that I must be the luckiest man alive because I was holding you.

I watched you for a long time and the more I saw of who you were, the more I began to suspect that I loved you, but I was always looking for the right moment to tell you how I feel. I was going to tell you how I felt that last night we were alone, but then I saw the pain on your face and I knew that it was because you were longing to be near Gambit and help him get better. So, instead of revealing my true feelings, I held back and suggested that we return to the mansion and see how Gambit was doing.

Once we returned, I felt that you and Gambit would one day rekindle what you once had and I continued to hide my true feelings. I ached for you every time the two of you came close to reconciling but instead were torn farther apart. Now I have just discovered that you are being held hostage by someone who has a sentinel, which can't be very good. I saw Gambit respond to your kidnapping and I am not convinced that he still loves you. So I have decided that if you return, I want you to know how I feel which is why I am writing you this letter and putting it under your door. If you feel the same way, I hope you will come to me and let me know.

Love,
Bobby
