Chapter 11:
After a couple of minutes of silence, Rogue abruptly stood up pulling Evan up with her.
"Rogue, what are you-"Evan said, startled.
"Ah got an idea. Why don't ah buy tha supplies for ya?" Rogue suggested.
"You don't have to. And besides the stores are all closed," Evan said.
"Ah know where there's a 24-hour store around here. We can probably get most of tha stuff ya need from there," Rogue replied.
"Ok if you want," Evan replied, unsurely.
It wasn't exactly the way he wanted to spend his limited time with Rogue. But the Morlocks did need those supplies. So in the end Evan agreed to it and they found Moe's 24-hour mart.
Evan handed Rogue the list and the money and she went into the store alone, while he waited outside, out of sight.
"I'm really glad I didn't scare her away," Evan thought while he waited.
About 15 minutes later Rogue emerged from the store with about ten grocery bags. Evan quickly rushed to her side and grabbed 6 of the bags from her hands.
"Ah got most of tha things ya needed," she told Evan, "Ah couldn't find some of tha canned things ya needed, though."
"That's ok. Callisto will be happy to have all of this," Evan replied as they walked toward the Morlock sewer entrance.
When they reached the Morlock compound, Evan led Rogue inside. Everyone down there stared intently at them, wondering who was with Evan.
Callisto finally intercepted Evan and Rogue, "Evan what is going on here?"
"We're putting away the groceries Rogue bought for us," Evan explained, making sure to emphasize Rogue's part in the shopping.
Callisto looked at the bags as if noticing them for the first time.
"You bought these?" she addressed Rogue.
"Well, Evan told meh what happened today. So ah thought ah'd help," she shrugged as if it was no big deal.
"Well we appreciate it very much," Callisto said gratefully, then she called for a couple of Morlocks to take the bags from them, "You two can go do your own thing now."
Rogue and Evan walked out of the main Morlock camp and headed for the deserted area they usually sat in.
Once they got there, they both sat down against the wall side by side.
"Rogue you're the best. Did you know that?" Evan blurted out, breaking the silence.
Rogue turned to face him, eyes wide, mouth hanging open, she was shocked.
"Don't look so shocked," he said, chuckling at her reaction.
"And why, exactly, ahm ah tha best?" she asked, incredulously.
"Because Rogue," he started, "You're smart, funny, kind, you have a sharp tongue, your tough and gentle all one. Not to mention you're also extremely beautiful."
He let the last thing slip out without thinking. It wasn't that he didn't think she was beautiful. Oh no, he thought she was the most beautiful person he ever met. He just didn't want to say things that would make her pull back and run away. By the gasp he heard from her he knew he had done just that.
She stared at him for a second before saying, "Ah should get going. It's pretty late and last night Scott was waiting up for meh."
At the mention of Scott's name, Evan couldn't help the jealously that overcame him and the frown that graced his face.
"Oh sure, Scott," he replied.
"Don't act lahke that. It's not what ya think. He was just worried about meh and he was afraid ah was hurt," Rogue explained.
"Sure," Evan said, tightlipped. He knew there was no reason for him to feel this way. But just knowing that Scott cared for Rogue in any way felt like a threat.
A threat? To what? He wondered.
"Whatever, ah'm leaving," Rogue said, disappointed at the way he was acting. She started walking away.
"Wait," Evan called, grabbing her sleeve covered arm and twirled her around. He intended for her to just turn to face him but instead she ended up in his arms.
"What Evan?" she said, sounding dejected.
He looked into her eyes and said, "I'm sorry for acting like a jerk."
She sighed and said, "Ah'm sorry too, for overreacting." His arms were on either side of her and they tightened their hold on her.
"I meant what I said before. You are extremely beautiful," he chanced saying it again. In response she tilted her head down to the side trying to hide the blush overcoming her face.
Her shyness and modesty were adding to the growing attributes he liked about her.
He lifted one of her gloved hands up to his mouth and planted a kiss at the tip of each finger.
She blushed even deeper and struggled to say, "Ah...ah really have ta go."
He nodded, smiling at her and reluctantly released her.
She was about to walk away, but first she turned to him to say, "Ah'll see ya tomorrow night."
She returned the smile he was giving her and then started to walk away.
