Rogue: Oh, she makes everybody else sound nice, but when it comes to my pairing, the title is some penny-
Beck: RED LIGHT!
Dexroth: Oh man..
Beck: Stop laughing, Dex. I still have some semblance of decency, I will not allow it to disappear just because one character doesn't like the title.
^*^*^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^*^^*^*^*^*^*
Rogue. Untouchable. Beautiful. Deadly.
^**^^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Pietro: Kinda goes with that whole 'untouchable' thing.
Todd: Yeah.but what if she like, repelled people? That wouldn't be untouchable deadly, would it?
Fred: It would if they were repelled into an open sewer!
Lance:..Score one for abstract thinking.
*^*^*^^*^**^^*^*^*^^*^*^*
Scott. The leader. Loved by many. Hated by many.
*^^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*
Ray: Got that right.
Roberto: I didn't know.
Ray: What.NO! We hate him!
Roberto: I'm sure.
^**^*^*^^*^*^**^^*^**^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*
But loved by one girl in particular. Rogue. The untouchable Rogue was in love with the leader of the X-men.
*^*^*^^*^**^*^*^^*^*
Rahne: Wow..we really like out repetition, don't we?
Beck: I'm building up suspense!
Rahne: What suspense? All you're saying is: Rogue. Scott. Rogue is in love with Scott.
Jubilee: See spot run.
Beck: Quiet. I'm going to make a story between you two next if you keep this up.
Rahne: If you do it like this one we shouldn't have to worry!
^**^^*^*^**^*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Throughout all of the pain, the angst, the sad happenings, the laughter, the happiness, the fun, Rogue had always admired him, even when she stayed with the Infamous Brotherhood and their shady ways. First she had scorned him, then accepted, and finally loved him, even if he was blind to her devotion, her desire.
*^^*^*^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^^*
Sam:.Sudden change in writing.can't cope.
Rahne:.She did this to prove we should be afraid.
Jubilee: Think she actually meant what she said?
Rahne: I still say she's bluffing. And even if she did, it's just a story, it means nothing.
Jubilee: Yeah.
Dexroth: Keep telling yourself that.
Jubilee: You want to die a horrible painful death, don't you?
Dexorth: Everybody says that to me so much, it ceases to be intimidating.

He was in love with Jean. A so called 'perfect' girl.
*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Jean: Score!
Rogue: This sucks. Hey author! Pick up the pace and give me my kiss!
Beck: You insulted my title.
Rogue: Everyone insults your titles. It's practically a tradition now.
Beck: Whatever. Fine, I'll get to it.
^**^*^^**^*^*^*^*^*^**^*^*
But was he truly happy? She watched him now, watched as he waited on her. He was not smiling. There was no love on his handsome face, no true emotion that he shared. She immediately felt pity for him.
And wished she could fill that void.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^*^*^*^
Lance: Who wouldn't feel pity for one-eye? He's a loser.
Pietro: He's got cranial rectosis.
Todd: Funny, yo, but cruel. And he's dating Miss goody-two-shoes.
Fred: What's wrong with Jean? She and I will get married one day.
Jean: Keep dreaming.
Pietro: Admit it Jean, Freddy's more man than your fearless leader.
Todd: Yeah, he outweighs him by at least six hundred pounds!
Fred: It's all psychological merit.
Dexroth: Now that's a lie.

Later that night, she ran into him at the halls in the institute.
It had been an accident. They ran into each other and their lips touched.
^*^*^**^^**^*^*^*^*^
Kurt: Ja. Accident.
Amanda: Oh, that can happen Kurt.
Dexroth:.But I don't think this was an accident.
*^^**^*^*^*^^*^**^^^**^***^
They had held together for a split second longer than what they had meant too, or so they let themselves believe. But when she broke away from him, she saw it in his eyes.
A distant hope, one that refused to die.
*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^*^*
Pietro: Even as Rogue sucks the life out of it.
Rogue: STOP TALKING ABOUT IT! AH HATE YOU! *storms off*
Pietro: Funny, that happened with my last girlfriend.
Tabitha: The one you had in fifth grade?
Pietro: STOP TALKING ABOUT IT! I HATE YOU! *storms off*
^*^*^*^*^**^^**^^**^^*^^***^*^*^*^*^*^
Love. And one day, they would be able to make good on the promise it showed.
One day, she would have him with her always.
Her love.
^*^**^*^*^^*^*^**^
Rogue: I t could have been better.
Beck: And I could have not done it at all.
Rogue: I am just giving constructive criticism.
Dexroth: Sure.
Rogue: So sue me, I want to have the best, I deserve it! I have so much angst in my life that I want it all!
Doggy:..woof?
George: *squiisheee*
Beck: No comment.
