Yep he does take a lot of naps, when i can't think of what to do with him he has one ^_^

A small knock at the bedroom door. "Come in." Rogue said softly so not to wake up Colin.

Scott stuck his head in. "Are you sure?"

She smiles and sits up. "Yea, ah'm sure."

Scott enters the room and shuts the door quietly behind him. "Rogue I um..."

"What is it Scott?"

"I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I should have been acting more responsible instead of acting pigheaded and I just hope you accept my apology."

Rogue motions him to come sit next to her as he does and shocking him she gives him a small hug. "Of course ah forgive ya Scott."

Scott smiled at her. "I'm glad, couldn't stand you being mad at me. I think Evan will come up later and apologize too."

"Thanks fer tha warnin` on that one." She said. "Ah guess ah owe ya`ll an apology too. Ah'm sorry ah was so rude ta ya`ll earlier. It's just the first person ah've ever been able ta touch without hurtin` turns out ta be a baby an` than bein` able ta touch someone mah own age, even if it was Pietro."

"Rogue can I ask you something personal?" Scott asked.

"Sure."

"If it wasn't Pietro that you were able to touch do you wish it was someone else."

She sighs and looked up at him. "Yea ah do, but ah can` say who it is Scott, ah'm sorry."

Scott nods and stands up. "It's okay, I understand Rogue." He sees Colin moving a bit. "Better go before he sees me in here with you and realizes Pietro's not here."

"Ya don` hafta go." Rogue told him.

"I know, but I promised Jean I'd talk with her about the entire Duncan situation."

Rogue nods as he leaves and Colin is fully awake now. "Hey cutie." She said picking him up as he starts giggling. "Ya want ta know a secret. If tha guy wasn` Pietro than ah would've wanted it ta be Scott."

(He blew raspberries at her and smiled when she laughed. He touched a strand of her white hair suddenly missing his real mother.)

"Come on let's change yer diaper." Rogue said.

"You okay Scott?" Jean asked as he came downstairs.

"Huh? Oh yea I'm fine Jean." He said smiling at her. "Went up and apologized to

Rogue."

"She forgive you?"

He nods. "Yea Evan's going to later. Before Pietro comes back that is."

"That's good." Jean said smiling as she moved her legs so Scott could sit down.
