Sorry this took so long to come out, I've been so busy, with exams etc. and
I went to see Bombay Dreams yesterday. It was cool!
Chic Mya - that you for pointing out I wasn't allowing anonymous reviews. I
didn't realize. And yes people do read profiles, at least, I do! :P
Sorry the last chapter was grouped up, ill make sure they are all spaced apart in future. Also, to clear up confusion.. Rogue borrowed Bobby's power to do it. Don't ask me why Bobby didn't just do it, she just did, because she was restless etc!
Please review, I do need them!!! They keep me going and give me energy!!! Any ideas would also be welcome!!! Thnx to everyone who has reviewed! Loved them all! Xxx now, on with the story!
That was it then. Bobby and Rogue were under house arrest for a month. No shopping, no trips, nothing. It wouldn't have been so bad, had they not been planning on going to a theme park with their friends the week after. Bobby had been hauled up before Professor Xavier, who was angrier than they had ever seen him. Scott had demanded him to tell them what he had done. Bobby however, had said nothing. He was not going to give Rogue away, and he had no mind to even want to talk to Scott in this mood.
Suddenly Rogue had burst through the doors, and said panting, "It was me, Professor, I did it. It wasn't Bobby. It was me," upon which the professor had withdrawn the story out of a desperate Rogue and the sulky Bobby.
Scott, as they finished their tale, had walked out of the room in disgust, and Rogue had looked after him as he walked out of the door, a wistful look in her eye, for the brotherly figure that was so angry at her.
Xavier's next move, was to give them a stern talking to, making Bobby's face to go a shade of magenta and Rogue to stair despondently to the floor. He sent Bobby to go and ask Storm to cover his next class, and make sure he sent for a builder to mend the broken wall. At the same time, he was instructed to apologize to Scott, and tell him to visit the hospital wing, to be checked out. Bobby walked out of the room, with a fleeting glance at Rogue, then Xavier, and went to do what Xavier had instructed him to do. He wasn't looking forward to it.
Meanwhile, Professor Xavier had sat Rogue down, and discussed her powers. He explained gently that they should not be used against people.
"How did you know that you were not going to hurt Bobby?" he asked, in gentle, but stern, tones. "Until we learn how to control your powers, you have to be more careful. Unless you do that, you are a risk to all of the other children. Rogue, you have a huge responsibility cast upon you, which is more than most people at your age you ever will experience. You have been strong up until now. Don't let yourself drop now."
Tears trickled down Rogues cheeks. "Its so hard," she whispered. "I couldn't help it. I needed to touch someone. Feel the warmth."
He nodded, and wheeled his chair over to the girl and placed his large hand into her gloved one.
"You can do it Rogue. You make us proud."
He adopted a stern face and said, "And I must express once again the seriousness of this little escapade. You may have thought it was harmless but you never know the consequences of our actions, so I bid you to beware in future. Scott didn't seem to be especially happy did he?" he gave a wry smile. "You and Mr. Drake will be put under house arrest for a month, and hopefully that will dissuade you from attempting anything else. Please apologize to your teacher for your lateness, and I will ask you, also to show your regrets to Scott. "
She walked out, her face low. She could have hurt Bobby, Xavier was right, she could have hurt the person she loved. All for a bit of fun. It was fun, she had to admit. Next time she wouldn't be so drastic. Wait, there wouldn't be a next time. She would be good. She sighed. Now to tell Scott she was sorry, while he would stare at her with sympathy, like he had done now, since Jean had gone. He was alright, really, Scott, just didn't get on with Bobby and Scott. She pulled herself together, and sternly reminded herself that she had something to do, not go around dreaming. She would be good from now on.
Bobby had other plans.
