Chapter 10: Truth and Lies:



Rogue was walking back to the kitchen when Remy ran into her.

"Where's the fire?" she asked

"Oh sorry....." he said helping her to regain her balance.

"You aren't going to eat dinner with us?" she asked suspiciously

"I was going to but that boyfriend of yours pissed me off!" he said continuing down the hallway

"Wait......" Rogue replied running to catch up with him.

"I don't want to talk about it. Now please leave me alone" he replied

Rogue stopped and watched as Remy disappeared down the hallway. She was getting angry.

'Bobby probably got jealous and said something stupid' she thought to herself as she stormed back into the kitchen.

At the table, Bobby regained his composure and slowly exhaled as the pain faded. He opened his eyes to find Rogue standing in front of him with her hands on her waist. He noticed she was tapping her foot, something she did only when she was angry.

"What did you do to him Bobby?" she snapped

"What did I do to him? More like what did he do to me!" he returned

"What are you talking about? I just ran into him in the hallway. You did something to piss him off, now what did you do?" she asked angrily.

"I didn't do a thing to him. All I did was ask him what he was doing and the next thing I know, he's squeezing my shoulder as hard as he can" Bobby said.

"I know when you're lying Bobby. Now tell me the truth!" Rogue snapped back.

"That is the truth damn it........" Bobby returned "........if you don't believe me, ask them" he added as he pointed to the rest of the kids sitting at the table.

"It's true Ms. Rogue" one of the young children said.

Rogue looked around the table, all the children were nodding their heads in agreement. She realized Bobby had been telling the truth, which meant Remy lied to her, but she'd take care of that later.

"I'm sorry I didn't believe you Bobby" she said as she took her seat beside him.

Bobby didn't reply, he just went back to eating his dinner.

"Are you alright?" she said realizing he was upset with her.

"I think so......." Bobby replied getting up from his seat.

Bobby grabbed his plate and placed it in the sink. Rogue did as well. Rogue took his hand and walked with him up to his room. Bobby lied down on his bed while Rogue put a movie in.

Rogue got on the bed and curled up next to him, on the side opposite his injured shoulder. She looked up at him and could tell he was about to fall asleep.

"Want me to stay here tonight?" she asked

"I don't think you're aloud" he replied

"Of course I'm aloud, Scott and Jean did it when they were our age and besides......tomorrow is Saturday. I'll get up early and go back to my room before anyone gets up" she said

"I love the way you think" Bobby replied

Rogue draped her arm over his chest and moved closer to him. He kissed the top of her head and smiled as he drifted into a deep sleep.

After about ten minutes of silence, Rogue looked up and saw that he was asleep. She didn't know exactly what had happened between him and Remy, but she intended to find out.

She slowly maneuvered off the bed so she wouldn't wake up Bobby. She gave him a kiss on the top of his head and walked out of the room.

She began walking towards Remy's room. She didn't know what she was going to say to him when she got there. Remy lied to her and she wasn't happy about it. He had also hurt her boyfriend and he wasn't going to get away with it that easily.

She knocked on the door and it slowly opened to reveal the Cajun on the other side.

"Oh hey Rogue" he said

"We need to talk......." she said as she walked in and closed the door behind her.

End Chapter 10

A/N: Yeah short chapter, but I had to get it out of the way. It's also 3 in the morning and I'm running out of creative juice. Thanks for the reviews and don't worry, Remy won't be a total bad guy. I just need him this way for a few chapters.
