Perfect

And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
I can't stand another fight
And nothing's alright

" Logan just leave me alone." Rogue muttered, not turning to face the man as he tried to quietly hoist himself through the trap door.

" Look kid-"

" I'm not a kid okay!" Rogue snapped towards Logan, fury blazing in her eyes. With her face turned to him, Logan could see the swelling cheek and the eye trying to close together.

" God, I'm sorry."

" Everyone's always sorry. Just once I wish they didn't have to be. I don't care what I may have said. It was one C on one Science test, which we both already know is not my favorite subject, and it doesn't even take my grade down from the A I already have."

" Rogue-" A glare from Rogue silenced the larger man, still half on the roof.

" Logan, I love playing with my friends. They may not be mutants but I'm not going to hurt anyone. They accepted what I am now why can't you?"

Logan was confused and he levered himself out of the trapdoor, trying to puzzle out what she meant. " What do you-"

Nothing's gonna change the things that you said
Nothing's gonna make this right again
Please don't turn your back
I can't believe it's hard
Just to talk to you
But you don't understand

" They've accepted that I'm a mutant, now why can't you accept that I'm growing up and that I'm doing what I want to do?"

" Marie-"

" And stop calling me that!" The fury was back in her eyes, multiplied tenfold. " I hate that name. It's Rogue. It always will be."

" Okay." Logan answered, trying to slowly scoot closer to the angry girl.

" Now if you don't mind, I have band practice." Glaring once more at Logan Rogue moved to the edge of the roof before sliding off.

" Rogue!" Logan was at the edge in a second, watching Rogue slide the rest of the way into her top floor room window. Logan sighed deeply, lying back on the hot roof, trying to calm his beating heart. " Girl's going to give me a heart attack." He mumbled to himself, staring up at the clouds passing overhead.

Not ten minutes passed before he heard the familiar sound of Rogue's favorite car leaving the driveway. Two beeps at the gate told him she was gone.

'Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect

A/N: I used 'Perfect' again by Simple Plan. Only reason I did this was because you all asked for more and if no one says that it stinks I'll give you more.
