"Oh, Bobby! We have been looking everywhere for you!" cried Mrs. Drake.
She attracted quite a few glances from various students. That fact really
embaressed Bobby.
Bobby inwardly cringed at his mother's loud and excited voice. His parents and his brother Ronny came down to New York once a month to visit him. Everytime they came to see him his mother acted like it had a million years.
"Hey Mom, Dad, and Ronny."
"Hey," said Ronny casually.
"Oh, Bobby, we missed you so much. Oh, what are you standing there for? Come here and give me a hug!"
Bobby hugged his mother and then he hugged his father. When it came to his brother they just nodded at eachother in complete understanding.
"Oh, Bobby! I missed you so much. Look at you! You are so handsome! You must have grown about six inches. We wrote you so many letters and you only wrote us one! I wanted to hear from you more! What happened? How is that nice Marie doing? I saw her parents. They've actually moved to Boston. You won't believe this, but we actually only live two blocks away from eachother. Isn't that great," asked Mrs. Drake.
"Yeah, that's wonderful. So, what exactly are we doing while you guys are here," asked Bobby trying desperately to change the subject.
"Marie's parents are here too. They are such great people. Well, tonight the three of them are going to have dinner with all of us. I expect you to be on your best behavior, Bobby. Last time you made her cry at dinner," said Mr. Drake.
"Yeah, right. I remember her laughing in my face about it later," muttered Bobby under his breath.
"Dad, don't worry about it. We've both tried to get along and lately we have been doing a lot better. I promise tonight at dinner that there will be no problems whatsoever. I'm actually tutoring her in math. So, that means I have to go to the library. Bye. I'll see you guys at dinner tonight," said Bobby practically through his teeth.
He walked off and sighed. His parents were too much for him sometimes, but they were his parents and he really felt bad for lying to them. Rogue and him were arguing more than they ever had before. It was suffice to say that everything between them was worse than ever. He was willing to make an effort tonight to please his parents. He was sure Marie would be good to for her own parents' sake. It took two to argue. And tonight he just wouldn't argue with her. He walked into the library to help her with her math.
*************************
He found her sitting down at one of the library's tables. He sat next to her only to see that she had a huge grin on her face, for him? This was weird. She sighed deeply as she handed him a paper, which happened to be the last test they had taken for math.
"Look, Booby. Isn't great? I hate you, but damn you're good," said Rogue.
Bobby slightly smirked at her as he said, "I'm glad that you happen to finally see it my way. Everyone else does."
"Oh, shut up!"
"You shut up!"
"Oh, make- um- just be quiet."
"Uh- good job- Rogue."
"Wow, should I faint? Were you actually complimenting me," asked Rogue with a high air.
"Never. I should be complimenting myself, actually," said Bobby.
"Oh, you think that you're so great. You're not as good and as mighty as you think you are. Someday you'll find that out," said Rogue.
"And you- you think you own-"
"Children!" exclaimed the librarian.
"Sorry," muttered both of them at the same time.
They went back to doing their homework until Bobby heard her deeply sigh.
"What," asked Bobby with annoyance in his voice.
"I don't get it. I'll do it later," said Rogue.
"No, well do it now, together. It won't take a long time," said Bobby.
"I don't need your help," said Rogue.
"Yes, you do. It's okay to admit that you actually need my help," said Bobby.
"But you're the enemy," said Rogue.
"Yes, but I have all the answers that you need. Also, I know what I am doing. Think of it as taking from the enemy. Don't worry. I don't want anything in return," said Bobby.
"Good. I'm not giving you anything in return. I spoke to my parents. Actually they're here, in Westchester."
"Yeah, I know that. Mine are here too. We're all going out to eat tonight. Do me a favor. Don't cause a scene," said Bobby coldly.
"Me, cause a scene? I won't. If anyone does it, it would be you. Don't worry. We'll play perfect angels."
"I told my parent's we have been getting along bet-"
"Me too," said Rogue quickly.
"Okay, we'll make them think we're friends. It can't be that hard," said Bobby.
"It won't be. Why are you helping me with my work? You hate me."
Bobby didn't answer her. He just got up and left, leaving a very confused Rogue to figure things out on her own which she usually was very good at. She wasn't good at it when it came to Bobby. When it came to Bobby she wads always confused. This time was no different. She was very confused as to why he refused to answer her. He had an answer for everything.
"I hate you Bobby," she muttered.
'No, you don't,' said a little voice in her head.
She sighed as she silently argued with the voice.
'Yes, I do.'
'Do not.'
'Do too!'
*************************
"Just a minute!" Rogue responded to the knock on her door.
Her parents had left for the restaurant early and she liked to take her time getting ready. She told her parents that the Drakes' said she could go with them. She finally opened her door.
"Damn! You take forever to- wow- you look- you're different," said Bobby.
Rogue looked at him. He was dressed in a tuxedo.
"You don't look so bad yourself, you know," said Rogue.
"My parents left already. I'll be taking you," said Bobby.
"Um- okay, lets go," said Rogue.
"Eager much," asked Bobby.
"Idiotic much?"
"Awe, you know you love me," said Bobby.
"You wish," said Rogue.
"Not especially," said Bobby.
"Oh, I'm so wounded," said Rogue.
"I do hope so."
"You know that you'd feel bad if something happened to me." Said Rogue
"I- I lied- I-"
"Don't say anything," said Rogue.
"Oh, believe me, I won't."
Rogue didn't have time to prepare for it this time. He pulled her to him without warning. His lips came crashing down on hers. Rogue could do nothing but kiss him back. Oh, God, how she wanted this. She hated him but yet since they kissed all she wanted to do was push him in the nearest closest and kiss him until she needed to breath again.
Bobby continued to kiss her. This was heaven. HE had wanted to kiss her again for the longest. Now that he was he wasn't sure that he could stop. He sighed as he felt her soft tongue crash into his. He loved this. He could kiss her all day and still kiss her more.
Suddenly she pulled away.
"I can't do this."
Bobby knew what she meant. She couldn't like him.
"Why not?"
"Because I can't. We're enemies."
"Ofcourse," said Bobby with a fake smile on his face.
Rogue saw through the fake smile and knew that he saw threw the fake smile on her own face. She wanted to ease her pain and for some reason she wanted to ease his pain. That was the only explanation she could find for why she did what she did next.
She softly kissed him again quickly before she pulled away.
"Why did you do that?"
"I don't know, let's go," said Rogue as she walked in front of him.
