Please, please forgive me,

But I won't be home again.

Maybe someday you'll look up,

And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:

"Isn't something missing?"

Rogue sat quietly in her room, finishing packing her bags. The clock clicked onto 2:47 as she glanced at it, and zipped up the small bag. Standing, she picked up the final item in her room - a picture of her and Remy, smiling, having fun. The picture was taken before she could touch. On their first date, and they both had a copy of this picture. She couldn't leave it behind. Oh no. She smiled slightly, thinking of Him. Of course, he kept his picture in his wallet - the safest place for a Master Thief to keep anything. She turned, casting a final glance around the room before closing the door quietly. She walked down the corridor quickly, silently, and into the boys dorm, down to Remy's room. Pushing open the door, she debated going in. After a moment, she stepped into the room, pushing the door closed behind her and watching his sleeping form for a few moments, before bending down and kissing his forehead. "Ah'm sorry Remy, but Ah have ta do this."

You won't cry for my absence, I know -

You forgot me long ago.

Am I that unimportant...?

Am I so insignificant...?

Isn't something missing?

Isn't someone missing me?

Picking up one of his cards - the Queen of Spades - She wrote him a brief note, apologising, and left it stuck in the corner of his mirror. "Ah love ya Cajun." And she left the room. Tears sliding down her face silently, Rogue left the X-Mansion, standing on the front lawn looking out to the world. Taking a deep breath, she squared her shoulders, not letting herself look back at Remy's window.

Even though I'm the sacrifice,

You won't try for me, not now.

Though I'd die to know you love me,

I'm all alone.

Isn't someone missing me? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Remy had awakened at the sound of someone leaving his room. He'd spotted the note and read it, and now, looking out of his window, he saw her. Her hair blowing around her gently in the breeze, and not looking back as she headed to the gates. He didn't more, not chancing moving incase she should look back and not see him there. "Je t'aime Rogue." He whispered on the breeze. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- She almost heard it as she jumped the gate.

"Je t'aime Remy." She felt the need to add Aussi (also), but couldn't bring herself to her delusions again. He was a married man for christ's sake. What was she doing, missing him already and she'd been outside less than a minute. Shaking her head and wiping away the tears, Rogue walked off into the night, whilst behind her, at his window, A Cajun sat praying for her safety and swift return.

Please, please forgive me,

But I won't be home again.

I know what you do to yourself,

I breathe deep and cry out,

"Isn't something missing?

Isn't someone missing me?"

And if I bleed, I'll bleed,

Knowing you don't care.

And if I sleep just to dream of you

And wake without you there,

Isn't something missing?

Isn't something...
