"This is it." Rogue said as they pulled into Irene's drive.
"Wow this house is gorgeous." Jean gasped.
"Just wait till ya see the inside."
"Hey Rogue how can a house be so well kept… I mean isn't this Irene blind?" Scott asked.
"Yea but she used to have the neighborhood kids help her out and they'd get cookies and that." Rogue said grabbing her duffle bag. "Are ya gonna stand there or are ya coming in?"
Lance and John glanced at each other both shrugging as they grabbed their bags and followed Rogue. "Come on Scott." Jean said dragging him.
Just before Rogue could reach the door, it opened. "Rogue child is that you?"
"Irene!" Rogue dropped her bag and went into the open arms of her old guardian. "I missed you so much."
"I missed you too my child." Irene said smiling. "Come now, let's get you and your friends settled in. You and the girl can share your old room and the boys can have the guest room."
"How did you know there was only one other girl besides Rogue?" Lance asked curiously.
"I know many things. Go on and get settled in. Take a nap if you'd like, you must be very tired from your long drive. I'll have supper on at five so take your time."
"Thank you Irene."
"You are most welcome."
"Come on I'll show ya to the rooms." Rogue said picking up her discarded bag and led the way upstairs. She stopped at the second door on the right and opened it. "This is the guest room."
"Wow I guess she knew ahead of time how many would be here." Scott said looking around seeing three beds set up in the room making it a bit small, but not claustrophobic.
"Told ya she's good." Rogue said. "And ya might as well take a nap too."
"Sounds good to me." Lance said dropping his bag at the foot of one of the beds and laid back on it closing his eyes.
Rogue and Jean shook their heads and shut the door as Rogue led them a door over. "This is the bathroom, there's another one downstairs and Irene has her own personal one." Jean nods as they walk to the room next to it and Rogue opened it. "And this is where we'll be staying. My old room."
