A/N: Okay, here's what's new about this chapter. I've done a few songs in
this story, but not like this. I am going to put the whole song down as one
and then place the story after it. I personally love the song. It's 'My
All' by Mariah Carey. I came across one of my cd's from a long time ago of
her, and I heard this song and I automatically thought up another chapter.
I might also post a few songs that I have written in the next chapter, so...
read on and I hope you like it. Oh yeah, I own nothing...but to own Shawn
Ashmore...I AM NOT WORTHY. LOL. Read on.
My All: By Mariah Carey
I am thinking of you In my sleepless solitude tonight If it's wrong to love you Then my heart just won't let me be right 'Cause I've drowned in you And I won't pull through Without you by my side
[Chorus:] I'd give my all to have Just one more night with you I'd risk my life to feel Your body next to mine 'Cause I can't go on Living in the memory of our song I'd give my all for your love tonight
Baby can you feel me Imagining I'm looking in your eyes I can see you clearly Vividly emblazoned in my mind And yet you're so far Like a distant star I'm wishing on tonight
[Chorus]
Give my all for your love Tonight
Chapter 10
Today was their first day of intense training. No schoolwork, no breaks, and they had Logan as a mentor.
"Alright, here's the deal. No slackin' off, no stoppin', no using your powers against another one of your classmates. Got it?" everyone mumbled a yes miserably. It was only 4 in the morning; Logan had no idea why they were complaining.
"Alright then. Rogue, Kitty, your over here with me for a few minutes. Bobby, pull yourself over here. Okay now...I need Jubilee and- erm...that seems to be all. Now I need everyone else, if you're not up here, to go with Storm." Logan watched the collection of children and teens fade from sight and then looked at the 4 teens in front of him.
"Professor Xavier has special training for you guys-," Bobby groaned sleepily, -and it's important that you do this training-," now Kitty was fading from his words, "-this is going to be harder and longer training than anyone else's-," Bobby fell on the bench behind himself, "-and Bobby I swear if you don't get up you wont be able to have children!!!" Logan finally shouted. That woke Bobby up and he sprung to attention. Kitty was now looking at Logan wide-eyed and frightened. Rogue just stared at Logan blankly, as did Jubilee.
"So when does our training start?" Jubilee suddenly asked. Logan looked at her just as surprised, almost as if he didn't know she had the ability of speech.
"Right now. Let's get into teams, Rogue, Bobby. Jubilee, Kitty. You two over there, you two over there," all four of them looked at him blankly.
"Who and where?" Bobby managed to croak.
"You and Rogue, over there by Scott. Jubilee and Kitty go over by that tree. I'll be there in a second. Good luck." Rogue walked by Bobby, unsure of what to think. Maybe Logan was doing this on purpose...then again maybe he wasn't. But all in all this was very uncomfortable.
"Hey Rogue, Bobby," Scott said smiling. Bobby wondered if the teachers were forced out of bed by Professor Xavier's telechenesis, or if they did it by choice.
"Okay, here's what we're working on today. For you to be an X-Man you must learn to trust your fellow 'people'. What better way than to walk on water."
"You're a very religious man aren't you," Rogue commented, trying to imagine herself walking on water. Didn't work.
"Now, Bobby, you're going to freeze the water and lead Rogue across it...while you walk on it yourself." Now Bobby couldn't believe the idea. But as Scott stepped back for them to begin, all hope of getting out of this faded.
"Whenever you're ready," Scott said urging them on. Bobby sighed deeply, reached forward and touched the water, concentrating and managing to freeze the entire fountain.
"Ready Rogue?" he whispered softly. Now she wasn't. He had said it so gently she was lucky she was still standing up straight.
"Yeah," she replied stepping up the slippery steps to the water. Bobby jumped up with her, and was the first to step out on the ice. Only then did the ice break and Bobby fell into waist deep cold water. Then, as a chain reaction all of the ice cracked and fell into the water, bringing Rogue along with it. Both were freezing, but still had the heart to laugh. Bobby pulled himself out and helped Rogue get out of the fountain.
As they stood across from each other, gasping for breath, Bobby's eyes caught Rogue's for a millisecond. He could see all of her emotions, feel all of her pain, but just as soon as he had seen it, it was gone. He felt a surge of regret pulse through his veins, and as they walked up the steps to try again, a song came to his mind.
"I am thinking of you. In my sleepless solitude tonight. If it's wrong to love you. Then my heart just won't let me be right..."
