Can the secret be kept?

DISCLAMER: I don't own any thing but the story line

In his office Rogue told about how her powers were gone. Logan stepped into the office to offer support for Rogue. The fireplace became a roaring bon-fire. They both turned to stare at Rogue. "That happens too." Rogue said lowering her head and blushing. The professor exclaimed "perhaps your mutation has changed, but we need to find out what caused this. May I read your mind?" Without hesitation or waiting for an answer he reached into her mind. He looked through her thoughts as he came to the memories of the cave she shut him out and refused to show him for fear he would be angry, or disapprove. "Rogue, I can't find the problem if you don't let me in, as far as I can tell whatever went on in that cave is what caused this." Logan stiffened as the Professor said this. The professor shot him a look of question then turned back to Rogue. Logan nodded at Rogue as if to say, he will find out anyway, he might as well know now. Rogue let the Professor in to the memories and was slightly embarrassed as he almost broke the connection with surprise. He continued to filter through files in her brain and found that she had cared deeply for Logan for sometime now yet was afraid to express her feelings, fear of rejection. He then turned to Logan; the curiosity was going to kill him if he didn't find out how Logan felt of this frail creature. Surprised again the professor learned that Logan felt the same way. Yet was knew if anyone found out that his reputation for being feared, unloved, and unlovable, would be ruined. The professor nodded as he got out of their minds. Logan raised to his feet and asked, "Well Chuck, what is it that caused this?" The professor looked at Rogue and then at Logan realizing that yes they were perfect together, "I didn't find anything. Well not of that nature. It seams that this is Rogues natural mutation. I don't understand either and I don't think that we ever will. However I do have something for you guys, something I have been working on." With that he reached into his desk and pulled out two items. One was a black choker, and the other was a watch. "This is so no one else but me can read your minds. I have seen your feelings are genuine and yet you feel you must hide them." They both nodded as they accepted their gifts. Rogue put her choker on, and Logan his watch. "Now then Logan may I see you." Rogue knew that was her cue to leave yet she felt she couldn't. Logan leaned over and kissed her cheek. "I'll be right out." Logan said with a sly smile. She nodded and left the room. As Rogue left the room Logan noticed the fire returned to its normal blaze. "Well, Chuck." The professor shook his head. "You have heard me talk to Jean and Scott about the rules for in-house dating. I don't think I need to repeat them however I am aware that Kitty does not want Rogue for a roommate anymore. I think you and her should share a room so you can keep an eye on her." Logan looked up at this suggestion. "I agree." Is the only thing he said before he walked from the room? He passed Kitty on the way through the living room, he nodded at her and said, "Rogue will have her stuff out of your room soon." Kitty looked surprised and asked. "Did the professor kick her out?" "No, she will be staying in my room so I can watch her." Kitty nodded continuing to think. Logan walked upstairs to the rooms and saw Rogue packing. "Kitty kicked me out I guess it is back at the brotherhood." Logan laughed "I wouldn't let you be tortured like that." He said coming over to her and giving her a light kiss on the lips. "Let me help you move into my room." Rogue dropped the shirt she was holding and turned to stare at him with her lips parted. "The professor said it was ok?" "The Professor practically insisted it." Logan replied. Rogue laughed out loud when Logan picked her up and spun her around. As he put her down Scott walked by the room. He stopped when he saw Rogue packing. "Where are you going?" he asked "My room. Kitty kicked her out and the professor wants me to keep an eye on her." Logan said before Rogue could get anything out. Scott nodded and was about to turn when he said, "Glad to have you back Rogue. It wasn't the same without you." Then he left the room.

Stepping into Logan's room she was overcome with a sense of warming. This was where she belonged she thought to herself. She looked over the room made mostly of wood, a dresser in one corner and a closet in another. A queen bed. Nothing special yet why was she feeling so good about this? She noticed that the room was clean, weren't guys supposed to be messy. Logan came in behind her and whispered "welcome to casa de Logan. Your new home." She smiled. This was exactly where she belonged. Logan closed the door, and knew no one would open it because no one wanted three spikes through their body. He kissed Rogue. It was a long kiss yet Rogue didn't even notice. When they kissed she was teleported to another world, and Rogue went to heaven that night. When she woke up she saw Logan was already up. She went to the bathroom to take a shower and saw Kitty coming out. "Good morning bitch." Kitty said as Rogue walked past her. Rogue sighed, yet smiled at the same time. When Rogue finally got to school after getting a goodbye kiss from Logan behind a pillar as she was heading out. She saw Pietro heading towards her. "Rogue, I need to talk to you." He said in his normal speedy voice. "Sorry Pietro can't talk I am late for class." She said walking by him with a smile on her face. She knew he would be back. "Rogue please." He persisted. "I said I was busy." Rogue awnsered starting to get upset. "Rogue I made a mistake you have to take me back." Pietro begged. Now Rogue was really upset. Just as she was thinking of hitting him a wind came by and blew him to the other side of the hall. Got to talk to Logan she thought. "Rogue?!" a surprised voice called.
