A/N: I wasn't going to write another chapter to Love is, but I decided that it wouldn't be fair. So here is the second and last chapter to Love is. Be warned, it's extremely fluffy. However, it does contain another one of my poems. I hope you all like it.

Later,

Christy

My one and only

Sighing, Pietro didn't know how he could wait much longer. After Marie had read her poem in class, he couldn't wait to pop the question to her. Hoping she'd say yes, and the uncertainty of her response kept him hopping from one foot to the other.

So deep in thought, he never even heard her approach.

"Pietro, you wanted to ask me something?" Rogue asked softly, tapping her boyfriend on the shoulder.

"Yeah I do. Marie, we've been going out since your sixteenth birthday, right?" He asked, hedging for a moment. (Check out Speed Demon for that story!)

"Yeah, sort of anyways. Why?"

"So, we've been together for two years, right?"

"Yes. Oh my God, is this a Dear Jane speech?"

"What??? No way. Quit jumping to conclusions. I really need to ask you something."

"Spit it out Pietro. Please? Your making me really nervous."

The speedster took a deep breath, then fell to one knee in front of her.

"Marie, will you marry me?"

Tears poured down her face, as she nodded.

"Well? I'd like an oral affirmative." Pietro asked, feeling a little self-conscious.

"Pietro…it's a dream come true. I love you, Of course I'll marry you." Rogue cried, throwing her arms around his shoulders.

The next day in Senior English class.

"Okay, Mr. Maximoff, would you come up and read your poem to the class?"

Nodding he got up and walked towards the front of the class.

Taking a deep breath he said, "My poem is entitled, My one and only."


"MY ONE AND ONLY

My one and only
My love and my life
How happy you've made me
Becoming my wife

Sharing our goals
And sharing our dreams
Are to me what being
In love really means

Your kind and sweet
And never untrue
You hold and cuddle me
When I'm frightened or blue

We never doubted
what life has to give
But share all our joys
Each day that we live

We sometimes get mad
And we've had a few fights
But your always there
On those long, lonely nights

And when we make up
We're as glad as can be
Because we love each other
And that makes us free

My one and only
I'll always be there
For I love you my Darling
And I really do care!"


After finishing his poem, Pietro moved back towards his seat, not even noticing the storm of applause he was receiving.

Noticing the look Lance and Kitty threw at him. He leaned down and kissed Rogue, right in the middle of class. Now, no one could ever doubt who Pietro's one and only was.

"I love you Marie." He muttered softly, placing another kiss on her cheek.
"I love you too, you crazy Speed Demon. I love you too."
