Chapter 6
Car Trouble
"I-
Ice is cold, but you are not.
Your lips against mine, I have not forgotten.
In this world, in that, I am always yours.
And I hope you are always mine.

Bobby toyed with the note. It was Saturday night, and he sat on his bed refolding the paper note that had appeared in his locker the day before. The ink was light, but it held so much meaning. Did this mean Marie was Rogue? Did this mean that they were both experiencing this other world? Bobby shook his head. Maybe he was just going nuts, but this note seemed to be proof that he was not alone. He tossed the note onto his night side table and moved to his closet. He pulled out his leather jacket and slugged it over his wide shoulders. Just because he was considered safe didn't mean he couldn't look tough. He exited his room and stomped down the steps to the second floor. His brother Ronny poked his head outside his door.
"Where are you going?"
Bobby turned briefly to look at his sibling. "I thought I would go check out the new club on Vine St."
"You mean Adrianne's, right?"
Bobby started to walk towards the second flight off steps to get down stairs. "Yep. Do you want to come?"
Ronny shook his head. "Nah, I have my Bio project due on Monday. I thought I would finish that."
"Make sure you tell Melissa I say hi!" Bobby said with a laugh.
Ronny looked confused. "How did you know?"
Bobby stood at the bottom of the steps and yelled. "Didn't you read Orwell this year? Big Brother knows all!"
Bobby walked by the TV room and waved at his parents. Rosie's head rested on his father's shoulder. The dark haired man looked up at his eldest child. "What time do you think you will be back, Robbie?"
He sent his father a smile. "Oh, never. Is that ok with you?"
"Sure! Make sure you lock the door on your way back in around 1, ok?"
Bobby's voice echoed as he walked out of the house. "See ya in a few!" He climbed into his black SUV and switched on his CD player. The voice of American Idol's runner up Clay Aiken blasted through his speakers. He silently cursed his little sister and turned the CD off and adjusted the radio station. The music poured into car, and Bobby steered the car onto the expressway. He was traveled the road for about 10 minutes before he pulled off the expressway. He traveled through some suburbia when he noticed he was going to pass the O'Brien house. He eased on the gas when he noticed the hood of the green Beatle was popped up.
Curiosity had him pull up behind the green car. He stepped out and walked over. Besides the fact that grease was splashed across her face, she was radiant. Like him, she was dressed up like she was going to go somewhere. Her eyes narrowed as he approached her.
"What are you doing here?"
Bobby sent her a smile. "Well I noticed the car trouble and I thought I could help."
"Aren't you the little boy scout?" Marie said dryly. His hurt face made her rethink her brash words. "Sorry, I was supposed to meet Julie and John at Adrienne's an hour ago but this piece of crap broke. My parents went out to dinner and dropped Steve off at the club on their way." She shook her head. "Of course I am supposed to take him home too."
Bobby stood behind her and gazed under the hood. "This is the part where I tell you I can fix it in no time and off you go. But sadly, you most likely know more about cars than I do."
Marie started to laugh. "Thanks for the support though."
Bobby tugged at his jacket. "No problem. I can offer you a ride though. I was heading that way anyway."
For the first time in a long time Marie looked approachable. "Thanks Bobby, I would appreciate it." He lowered the hood himself while she went inside to wash up. He escorted her to his car and lent her a hand while she climbed in. Her knee length red skirt brushed his thigh as she sat down. The brief connection of their skin made Bobby's eyes look upward to the sky. Instead of feeling his life drain away he felt the wonderful softness of her skin.
They sat cuddled on the couch, laughing at each other. They just got back with the school after the museum incident. Rogue's gloved hand was pressed against his and for some reason they started playing thumb war. The kept on laughing until their eyes me. Bobby leaned forward to kiss her when she stopped him.
"I don't want to hurt you." She murmured.
"I am not afraid." He leaned in closer when the sound of a motorcycle was heard from the distance.
Rogue's eyes lighted up when the front door opened and she ran out of his arms. Bobby sighed as he went after his girlfriend.
In the foyer stood the man of Marie's dreams Logan. Bobby felt his blood boil during the introduction. He couldn't wait for his turn and grabbed Logan's hand.
"I'm her boyfriend. They call me Iceman." He grasped harder on Logan's hand and sent a spill of Ice before he let go.
"Boyfriend… So how do you…"
"We are still working on it." Bobby felt the jealousy eat him up inside when he noticed how Marie looked gooey eyed at the mutant. He pulled her away when Jean came in.
She sent him a pointed look. "You have nothing to worry about Bobby. Now don't you think it is time to go?"
"Go where?"
"To Adrienne's." Marie sent Bobby a confused look. His hand had tightened around hers and his eyes looked glazed over. Weird. He sent Marie a smile.
"Oh, yeah, don't mind the side trip, happens all the time." He let go of her hand. "I guess we should go."
While he walked to the other side of the car he heard her mutter. "You think?"
