Marie walked down the street to her apartment she shared with her roommate, Lauren. She rarely saw Lauren. They probably didnt even talk at all in the 5 months she lived there, but it was better then living on hte streets like she had been doing the first 2 weeks she was gone until she reads in the newspaper 'Need Roommate. Call 543-7856' She did and she got the apartment. The only bad thing is she didnt get much sleep either.Not juts because there was a new man in Laurens bed every night, but because she missed all her friends so so much. Especially...him. Bobby Drake. They had known each other forever. They were best friends, but now all that was gone because she was to damn stubborn to listen to anyone. Sometimes she'll just sit at the table and stare off into space, and Lauren would sometimes ask what was wrong. She would tell her about her boyfriend who she loved but left him for his own good. Lauren would just stare and laugh,

"BOYFRIEND!? Girl just get over him. Hey Im going out tonight maybe we can find you someone...."

Thats what she always said. She didnt understand though. Marie couldnt get over Bobby and in a way didnt want to. She told him to get over her, but she really didnt want him to either. She unlocked the door to her small apartment and plopped down on the couch. She turned on the tv to find the news on. "We give our prayers to the family and friends of this young...mutant boy." Rogues eyes snapped up. Mutant? Who was it? Just then Lauren walked in and noticed the news on.

"Oh..I see you heard about that Ice Mutant who was murdered. His name was something like Robert Draken or Drake...something like that." Rogue looked up at her roommate.

"What?"

"Ya, he was this mutant with ice powers who was murdered a few days ago. They havent found the body but they know he is dead. They saw him and even saw a video of the murderer killing him. Eew...they even showed it. Why are you so interested in this all of a sudden?"

"What was his name Lauren?"

"Robert Dracula or something or Raker. I dont remember. OH wait his mutant name was something like...ICEMAN. He was kinda hott to....."

"......."

Rogue got up and ran to her room. She slammed the door and locked it. She fell onto the bed and cried on her pillow. How could she leave him? Now he is dead. She would never see him again. Would he still be dead if she didnt leave him? She sat on her bed and cried not caring if the whole world heard her. "No...It cant be.Not my Bobby. No. Bobby cant be...dead."

She looked at the bottle of pills on her table. They were pills that Jean had been secretly sending her. Jean promised to never tell anyone where she was. Jean was the only one who could understand her, and she trustd her completely. To stop her powers. She was planning on going home if they worked and they did. Well, they did work, but she didnt go back home. She couldnt do it. So she just told Jean the pils weren't working. She wantd to go home, but couldnt. What if things had changed. What if Bobby was over her? She got up and picked up the phone. She dialed the number and waited for someone to pick up.

"Hello?"

"......"

"Hello?"

"Umm..Hello Mrs.Drake Its me....Marie."

"MARIE!?"

"Yes.....I just wanted to call to tell you im sorry for your loss."

"What loss?"

"Oh...."

"I would yell at you Marie but I know you and Bobby left for a reason. Tell Bobby im sorry for saying those horrible things and making him leave. I felt horrible. How is my boy anyways?"

"He..he is dead Mrs.Drake...."

"Oh....."

"Mrs.Drake can you tell my mother I love her and miss her dearly. Also tell her not to hate Bobby. He didnt make me leave. I decided to. And that I am a...mutant also. I have powers...."

"Oh Marie Im sorry to tell you but Your mother died a few years ago.."

"....Im...S-Sorry for your loss again Mrs.Drake, but tell me did my mom die alone?"

"*sigh* Im sorry to inform this to you but yes Marie she did..."

"I-I.....good bye..."

With that she hung up the phone. She had lost two people in one day. Her mother died alone? Another person dies when she leaves them. She sat in the corner and cried herself to sleep.

*A/N ok well R/R please I need more reviews to write faster. Ok well preview: "I told you I would love you forever....You may have left me but ill never leave you. You should know that."
