At the Brotherhood's house, Lance was having a talk with Pietro. The leader was walking in circles infront of the white haired boy who was sitting on the livingroom's couch staring at the older boy bored.
"What do you want?" Pietro followed Lance's moves with his eyes. Suddenly he stopped and stood infront of Pietro with his arms folded
"Did you plan what happened earlier?" Lance's voice was serious
"Of course! It was brilliant" Pietro smiled proudly. Lance shoocked his head and sighted.
"Wow Speedy! that was so mean" Tabitha, who was sitting on the coach's arm, said impressed "If Summers discovers you, you're a fried man"
"Only if he could catch me, but I don't think he could move as fast as I do" Pietro stood up with a victory pose while Tabitha clapped her hands.
"You shouldn't have done what you did" Lance folded his arms and standed infront of Pietro with a disaproving look.
"Why not?!" Pietro gave an odd look to his leader
"'cause it's not fair..." the older boy answered energly. The white haired boy gave a step back and raised an eyebrow. At that moment Fred and Todd walked inside the room.
"Since when the Brotherhood cares about what's fair or not..." Pietro stared at Lance right on the eyes "Oh I see"
"What?" The older boy asked coldly
"You're doing all of this to win points with that X-Geeks, you're worried this would affect your relationship with Kitty-cat"
"I'm not doing this for them!"
"Yeah, right!" Pietro answered sarcastically. Todd, Fred and Tabitha stood there watching quietly the arguing.
"Do we stop them?" Tabitha whispered to her other two teammates
"Nah" Todd folded his arms and smiled "5 bucks, Pietro is the winner"
"Are you nuts!?" Fred said energly with a disaproving look
"Yeah, what are you thinking Toad?!" Tabitha imitated Fred's expression "10 for Lance" Tabitha raised a ten dollars bill. Fred rolled his eyes and then shooked his head.
"Let me tell you something Pietro, I don't care what you think" Lance pointed at Pietro "I just want to know why did you do it?"
"'Cause I LOVE Rogue!" Pietro clenched his fists at his sides.
"Are you sure?" Lance folded his arms and stared at the boy infront of him for a moment "I don't think so, you're not in love with her, you're just mad 'cause she loves other..." Pietro folded his arms and stared at his leader with a 'Yeah, right' expression on his face "and that other is the leader of the X-Geeks! you're after her 'cause you can't stand Rogue liking Summers. All of this is like a challenge for you"
"That's not TRUE!"
"Yes it is! You can't stand that one of your worst enemies can have the one you CAN'T, the untouchable girl"
"But he doesn't deserve her, not after all what he did to her, all what he said to her!"
"And you think you deserve her?"
"Of course, 'cause I care of her, I wouldn't do anything like that to her, I LOVE HER!"
"I know you love her, whe all do, but not the way you're thinking. She was always there for you when you needed her and always tried to cheer you up when you were sad, she is a great girl and you love her for that!"
"What do you mean?"
"Don't you see it? you're confounding frienship with love"
"You know something? I don't want and I won't continue hearing your stupidities!" Pietro ran as fast as he could to his bedroom and locked the door. Lance sighted and shaked his head.
Now at the Institute's dinnerroom...
"Where's Rogue, professor?" Scott was worried at not seeing her sitting with them at dinning room.
"She isn't feeling well and decided to skip dinner" The man answered calmly
"I see..." The senior sighted and stared at his plate saddly. Jean and Kitty noticed his worried face and exchanged concerned looks. -Don't worry, Scott, maybe she isn't feeling well because of her wounded arm- Jean tried to sound logical in his head. Scott raised his head and stared at his friend -Like, yes! maybe you're, like, not the reason of her absence, be, like, positive!- Kitty said cheerfully -I can't think that's positive when the reason of her wounds is me...- the senior answered sarcastically- -Like, sorry...- Scott sighted -Maybe I'll try to talk to her after dinner... -
Scott was walking to Rogue's room when he found Kurt walking out of it.
"How is she?" Scott asked
"At the moment is asleep..."
"I see..." After that, both stood silent for a second, but Kurt broke suddenly the silence
"Vhat happened? I thought ya liked my sista..." the blue boy said dissapointed
"I'm sorry Kurt, but I swear anything happened. I pushed Taryn away before a catastrophe happened" Scott leaned on the wall "I'm sure Maximoff planed everything... but I know that even if I tell her the true she wouldn't believe me..." the older boy put a hand on the back of his neck "I've hurt her so much, she wouldn't forgive me..."
"Ja, she is really stubborn, just like ya" Kurt pointed at Scott who gave him a sad smile "but if ya're sincere and try yar best, ya can vin her trust again" -and her heart-
"And how can I do that?" Scott folded his arms
"Tell her the true of yar feelings"
"Again that? Can't you be more original?" Kurt gave Scott an odd look "All right, I got it, She needs to know how I feel about her" Kurt nooded with a big grin on his face "I guess I'll do it tomorrow morning"
"Covard!" the blue boy made an evil smirk
"Blue Elf!"
"Shades!" Kurt dissapeared before Scott called him with other nickname.
"Cheater!"The senior shoocked his head and walked to his room.
Next morning, Scott entered to the kitchen and saw Kitty, Evan, Jean and Amara eating breakfast. He turned all around searching for Rogue and made a dissapointed gesture at not finding her.
"Have you seen Rogue, I've been looking for her but I can't find her" Scott scratched his head. Suddenly a cloud of gray smoke appeared on the seat next to Evan, making him cough and wave his hands.
"I've told you not to do that, Kurt!" Jean said waving her hands infront of her head
"Sorry guys"! Kurt put a hand on the back of his head and gave them a big grin "Hey, have ya seen my sista? I look at her in her bedroom but is gone"
"Like, *cough* she said she was *cough* like walking to the school today" Kitty said waving her hands as well.
"It seems she's feeling pretty well today" Evan said before drinking a glass of juice.
"I guess so..." Scott sighted and sat next to Kitty resting his head on his right hand.
It was lunch time, Rogue was sitting alone on the last table of the cafeteria. She had her script on the table and her eyes fixed on it, but her mind was trying to make sense to all the memories she had in the last session with the professor. Scott entered to the cafeteria followed by Evan and Kurt. At other table not so far, Pietro saw the three x-kids walking in the room and then turned to see Rogue sitting alone and thoughtfully. He raised from his sit and was about to walk to her when a hand stopped him. He turned and saw Lance with a worried face.
"See who it is, Scott Summers' number one fan"
"Please Pietro, stop all of this crazyness, stop hurting her. This is not fair for her..."
"I'll do whatever I want..."
Scott looked everywhere searching for Rogue when Kurt pointed at a corner where the girl was.
"I guess nov you'll tell her" Kurt elbowed Scott
"I... I don't know... " Scott put a hand on the back of his neck
"Oh not again!" Kurt and Evan pushed the senior on direction of the girl. He was walking to her when a blow of wind pushed him to a side. He shaked his head and turned to Rogue, but now she wasn't alone, Pietro was beside her. Scott sighted and turned to walk to the exit.
"How is the most beautiful girl of the school?" Pietro standed next to Rogue with his clasical 'I'm so cool' smile. When the goth girl didn't answered, the boy tapped her shoulder "Hey Roguey!"
"Oh... hi..." the girl so distracted that didn't even noticed the cut on the boy's eyebrow
"Is there a problem?" (Like if he didn't know...) Pietro sat on a chair next to Rogue
" Er... No..." The girl rest her head on her right hand "everything is "fantastic"" she said with a sarcastic tone
"I know what happened with Summers, I'm really sorry..." He put his best 'I'm sorry' face and put a hand on her hand that was resting on the table. Rogue sighted and standed up. "Where are you going? I didn't mean to hurt you..."
"I need to find Risty..." Rogue gave a sad smile to the boy over her shoulder "Thank you..." then left to the exit. Pietro stared at every move she did -My plan was a succes- his lips turned in an evil smirk and raised his damaged eyebrow -OUCH! DAMN IT!- He winced at the pain on his forehead and put a hand on it -Stupid Summers-.
At the end of the clases, Rogue was at her locker taking some books from it, when she finished, she closed the door and suddenly her head hurt and had a vision of a horrible guy with white face, red eyes, black lips and an maniac expression. She put a hand on her temples and began breathing hardly.
"Rogue, May I talk with you?" Scott appeared behind Rogue. The girl turned and stared at the senior in disbelief
"What do you want?" She said coldly
"Well..." Scott didn't know what to say, he put a hand on the back of his neck. Suddenly he had an idea to light the atmosphere "How are you feeling? I, well, we all, worried at not seeing you at dinner..." he said with a small smile
"Fine, thank you. Is that all?" She folded her arms and tapped the floor with her foot
"Actually...I want to explain you what happened yesterday..." Rogue leaned on her locker staring at the boy with a serious expression "you know... between Taryn and me..."
"No, I don't know and I don't care. It's your life, you don't have to explain anything or ask permission for anything..."
"But... but..." Scott was surprised and speechless
"I have to deal with enough things in my life to be interested in your romantic life" the goth girl grabbed her back pack and began walking away when a hand took her arm and turned her to face Scott.
"You're not leaving me like this..."
"What do you think you're doing?" she tried to set herself free but Scott's grasp was firm. He stood immobile and quiet, just staring at her confused eyes. -Just tell her- he told himself. Rogue look at him with a mixture of surprise and confussion.-Show her how you feel- the senior was leaning closer to her - Don't care what would happen, just show her...- Scott's lips were a milimeter separated from Rogue's
"Hey Roguey!" Scott separated from Rogue and gave a step back when hearing Pietro's voice. In a second, Pietro was standing between the two kids and gave an accusing look at the senior "Is this moron bothering you?"
"The only moron I see here it's you!" Scott clenched his fist at his sides
"All right, if I'm a moron you're an idiot!" both exchanged killing glares
"Calm down both of you!" Rogue stood between them and pushed them apart
"You need a girl to defend you!" Pietro said with an evil smirk
"Really? 'cause your eyebrow doesn't say so"
"You shouldn't talk, Shades, your mouth must hurt..." with that coments, Rogue noticed both boys wounds and gasped
"Did you have a fight?" Both boys nooded "Oh Great!" She said sarcastically. At that moment, Kitty, Lance, Evan and Kurt appeared.
"What's going on here?" Lance asked at seeing the scene.
"Summers was bothering Roguey!"
"That's not true! We were fine before YOU appeared!"
"It didn't seem like a friendly talk" Pietro said sarcastically.
"It doesn't matter you" Scott turned to Rogue "I'll give you a ride, Are we leaving?"
"She doesn't need anything from you, Shades!" Pietro pushed Scott who pushed him back.
"I won't stand this! Kill yourselves if you want!" Rogue stormed out the building.
"THIS IS YOUR FAULT!!" Both boys said at the same time pointing to each other.
"I don't have time to waiste with you..." Pietro ran after the goth girl so fast that Scott didn't have time to react.
"DAMN!!!" Scott punched the locker before him.
Rogue was walking out the building when a she had other vision. She stood there for a sencond recovering when she felt an arm around her shoulders.
"You shouldn't ran like that" it was Pietro with one of his 'the world doesn't deserve me' smiles "You know you can't beat me"
"Stay away from my business, Ok?" The girl put his arm away from her
"Wow! Someone is really irritable..."
"I'm not in the mood to argue with you, Why don't you..." she felt her head hurt again and had other vision of that evil guy. She put a hand on her forehead and the other on Pietro's shoulder to keep her balance. Pietro move fast and put a hand on her back -If Summers see us like this he surely get a heartatack-
"Hey girl, I heard you wanted to talk to me..." Risty appeared from behind them "What's wrong?" Rogue closed her eyes and visions of that day came to her like flashes.
"No..." She coulnd't stand it any more and dismay on Pietro's arms
"Rogue? Rogue!!" the boy tried to wake her up but was useless. "Let's take her to the Institute!" He turned to a worried Risty who nooded
"My car is over here..." Pietro grabbed Rogue on his arms and carried her to Risty's car.
Scott was with his friends next to his car talking about the 'incident' he had a moments ago.
"So you were, like, trying to talk with Rogue..."
"Yes, and that IDIOT interrupt us!"
"Hey!" Lance put a hurt face "He's my teammate"
"Sorry, is just that..." Scott's eyes brighted behind his shades "I hate him..."
"Join the club, man" Evan raised his hand and Scot shooked it with a weak smile
"Vhy don't ve found the "Pietro's Haters" club" Kurt raised his hands and stared at the sky like visualization something.
"Excuse me?" Lance folded his arms "I'm still here, if you hadn't noticed it"
"Like, admit it Lance, your friend is, like, a headache" Kitty put a hand on his arms
"I know, he can be really annoying sometimes" Lance sighted "but you have to understand, he is worried about Rogue as well" he tried to defend his friend.
Logan was walking down the stairs when an annoying ring disturbed him
"All right! All right!! I'm going!!" He grumphed and opened the door. Infront of him stood Risty with a worried face
"It's Rogue!" Logan's expression turned confused. He watched over her shoulder and saw Pietro carrying Rogue on his arms
"Stripes!" The man helped the boy and took the girl on his arms then took her inside the building followed by the two kids.
"Logan, who was it?" Ororo appeared suddenly and gasped at seeing Logan carrying Rogue "What happened?!"
"We were talking and suddenly she faint" Pietro said confused and worried
"Tell the prof, I'll take her to the infirmary" Both took their ways and left Risty and Pietro alone.
"I guess they'll take care of her" Risty put a hand on the boys shoulder "Call me later" he nooded and then the girl walked to her car and drove away.
"Why don't you wait in the living room with me?" Mr McCoy had a bright smile, put a hand on Pietro's shoulder and lead him to the room.
Scott, Kitty, Evan and Kurt entered in the house talking and joking about the "new" club they founded.
"Evan vould be the president and Scott the vicepresident" Kurt said laughing. Scott was the first to enter to the living room and when seeing who was there his grin turned into an angry expression.
"What the hell are YOU doing here?" Everybody exchanged looks and stopped abruptly at seeing Pietro sitting in the living room next to the Best.
"I don't have to explain you anything" Pietro stood infront of the senior with a challengy glare.
"All right kids, stop this!" Hank stood between the two kids "Pietro brought Rogue because she wasn't feeling fine"
"What happened to her?" Scott's face turned worried and surprised "If you harm her I swear I..."
"No menaces Shades! I didn't do anything!"
"Pietro, you better, like, leave before this, like, become a battle field, please" Kitty told him with a pleading look "I'll, like, call Lance later and, like, tell him how she is"
"All right..." Pietro walked to the exit, before leaving he gave Scott a warning glare and then walked out the house.
Half an hour later, Logan, the professor and Ororo walked in the living room where Scott, Kitty, Evan, Kurt and Mr McCoy were patiently waiting for some explanation. At seeing the adults apear, Scott and Kurt stood up as quickly as Quicksilver would do it.
"Hov is she? Vhat happened?" Kurt sounded worried
"She dismay at school..." the professor said calmly
"Vhy?!"
"She is under too much stress" Scott suddenly felt really guilty and lowered his head "But don't worry, she will be all right, she just need to rest..."
"Vhere is she?"
"At her bedroom sleeping" Logan answered with his arms folded
"May I see her...?" Everybody turned to Scott
"All right, but try not to disturb her" Xavier warned the kid and gave him a confident smile.
Scott slowly opened the bedroom's door and entered the room quietly. He stood next to the girl sleeping on the bed admiring her -She looks so beautiful- he sighted and kneeled beside her.
"I didn't mean to hurt you" He said quietly while moving a strand of white hair away from her face "I've been an idiot... I let my jealousy controls me and made me do things I would never do..." He stared at her face "I shouldn't have told you all that terrible things... Instead, I should have told you how I feel about you" He sighted "I'm a covard and don't deserve your forgive..." He stood with a sad smile "But this time nobody will stop me to do this..." He leaned and get closer to her face until he felt her breathing "I love you, Rogue..." He whispered and stood like that for a second, "I'm sorry..." The senior stood and walked to the door. Before leaving, he turned to the girl on the bed and smiled weakly, then left the room.

"I'm not in the mood to argue with you, Why don't you..." she felt her head hurt again and had other vision of that evil guy. She put a hand on her forehead and the other on Pietro's shoulder to keep her balance. Pietro move fast and put a hand on her back -If Summers see us like this he surely get a heartatack-
"Hey girl, I heard you wanted to talk to me..." Risty appeared from behind them "What's wrong?" Rogue closed her eyes and visions of that day came to her like flashes.
"No..." She coulnd't stand it any more and dismay on Pietro's arms
"Rogue? Rogue!!" the boy tried to wake her up but was useless. "Let's take her to the Institute!" He turned to a worried Risty who nooded
"My car is over here..." Pietro grabbed Rogue on his arms and carried her to Risty's car.
Scott was with his friends next to his car talking about the 'incident' he had a moments ago.
"So you were, like, trying to talk with Rogue..."
"Yes, and that IDIOT interrupt us!"
"Hey!" Lance put a hurt face "He's my teammate"
"Sorry, is just that..." Scott's eyes brighted behind his shades "I hate him..."
"Join the club, man" Evan raised his hand and Scot shooked it with a weak smile
"Vhy don't ve found the "Pietro's Haters" club" Kurt raised his hands and stared at the sky like visualization something.
"Excuse me?" Lance folded his arms "I'm still here, if you hadn't noticed it"
"Like, admit it Lance, your friend is, like, a headache" Kitty put a hand on his arms
"I know, he can be really annoying sometimes" Lance sighted "but you have to understand, he is worried about Rogue as well" he tried to defend his friend.
Logan was walking down the stairs when an annoying ring disturbed him
"All right! All right!! I'm going!!" He grumphed and opened the door. Infront of him stood Risty with a worried face
"It's Rogue!" Logan's expression turned confused. He watched over her shoulder and saw Pietro carrying Rogue on his arms
"Stripes!" The man helped the boy and took the girl on his arms then took her inside the building followed by the two kids.
"Logan, who was it?" Ororo appeared suddenly and gasped at seeing Logan carrying Rogue "What happened?!"
"We were talking and suddenly she faint" Pietro said confused and worried
"Tell the prof, I'll take her to the infirmary" Both took their ways and left Risty and Pietro alone.
"I guess they'll take care of her" Risty put a hand on the boys shoulder "Call me later" he nooded and then the girl walked to her car and drove away.
"Why don't you wait in the living room with me?" Mr McCoy had a bright smile, put a hand on Pietro's shoulder and lead him to the room.
Scott, Kitty, Evan and Kurt entered in the house talking and joking about the "new" club they founded.
"Evan vould be the president and Scott the vicepresident" Kurt said laughing. Scott was the first to enter to the living room and when seeing who was there his grin turned into an angry expression.
"What the hell are YOU doing here?" Everybody exchanged looks and stopped abruptly at seeing Pietro sitting in the living room next to the Best.
"I don't have to explain you anything" Pietro stood infront of the senior with a challengy glare.
"All right kids, stop this!" Hank stood between the two kids "Pietro brought Rogue because she wasn't feeling fine"
"What happened to her?" Scott's face turned worried and surprised "If you harm her I swear I..."
"No menaces Shades! I didn't do anything!"
"Pietro, you better, like, leave before this, like, become a battle field, please" Kitty told him with a pleading look "I'll, like, call Lance later and, like, tell him how she is"
"All right..." Pietro walked to the exit, before leaving he gave Scott a warning glare and then walked out the house.
Half an hour later, Logan, the professor and Ororo walked in the living room where Scott, Kitty, Evan, Kurt and Mr McCoy were patiently waiting for some explanation. At seeing the adults apear, Scott and Kurt stood up as quickly as Quicksilver would do it.
"Hov is she? Vhat happened?" Kurt sounded worried
"She dismay at school..." the professor said calmly
"Vhy?!"
"She is under too much stress" Scott suddenly felt really guilty and lowered his head "But don't worry, she will be all right, she just need to rest..."
"Vhere is she?"
"At her bedroom sleeping" Logan answered with his arms folded
"May I see her...?" Everybody turned to Scott
"All right, but try not to disturb her" Xavier warned the kid and gave him a confident smile.
Scott slowly opened the bedroom's door and entered the room quietly. He stood next to the girl sleeping on the bed admiring her -She looks so beautiful- he sighted and kneeled beside her.
"I didn't mean to hurt you" He said quietly while moving a strand of white hair away from her face "I've been an idiot... I let my jealousy controls me and made me do things I would never do..." He stared at her face "I shouldn't have told you all that terrible things... Instead, I should have told you how I feel about you" He sighted "I'm a covard and don't deserve your forgive..." He stood with a sad smile "But this time nobody will stop me to do this..." He leaned and get closer to her face until he felt her breathing "I love you, Rogue..." He whispered and stood like that for a second, "I'm sorry..." The senior stood and walked to the door. Before leaving, he turned to the girl on the bed and smiled weakly, then left the room.
