Rogue smiled at him causing his heart to jump. He missed the smile and as tempted as he was right now he couldn't kiss her. He didn't want to ruin their friendship. Scott took the plate from her hand and went over to the microwave to hear it up.
"Ah could have done that ya know."
He turned his head and smiles. "I know, call it trying to get your forgiveness."
Rogue giggled lightly. "Scott fer tha last tahme ah forgive ya. Ya don` hafta go `round helping` me with every little thing."
"Well, maybe I like doing these little things for you." He told her standing in front of her now.
Rogue sucked in her breath, mostly nervous about Scott being that close to her and also wanting him to be. No don` think those thoughts ya love Pietro not Scott, she told herself mentally. "Scott ah…"
"You don't have to say a word Rogue." He said putting his finger to her lips.
"But…"
"Shh… not a word." He said leaning in and pressed his lips softly against hers.
Rogue didn't know how to respond. Part of her was saying push him away and the other part was saying for her to kiss him back. Scott wrapped his arms around her slender body hoping it would provoke her to kiss him back and needless to say it had worked.
She slowly started to kiss him back, her mind yelling at her to stop, but her body wouldn't. Her arms slowly found themselves being wrapped around his neck. Scott smiled wishing he could see them like this. One of his dreams come true. Rogue kissing him back and with luck she wasn't thinking it was Pietro. His tongue touched the outside of her lips parting them slightly giving him access to inside of her mouth
Rogue felt his tongue enter her mouth playing against hers now. No ah can` do this, she said as her will became strong and pushed Scott back. "Ah'm… ah'm sorry Scott, but ah can` do this." She told him grabbing her plate of food from the microwave and quickly went upstairs. She didn't go to her room since she knew Kitty would be on the phone with Lance, instead she went to the library.

Scott sighed heavily running his fingers through his hair. "So close." He muttered under his breath. He looked in the direction where Rogue took off and knew he couldn't follow her. Not now.
