4. Light My Fire

She gently tugged on St. John's black shirt; her eyes glowing with fear. John looked down at Rogue and whispered into her ear. "I thought you were the one who suggested to watch this movie Shelia?" he chuckled softly into Rogue's ear.

Rogue reacted by punching him playfully in the shoulder. "Ah did, but Ah nevah said Ah wasn't alil jumpy."

Pyro quirked an eyebrow at her "Oh! Just alil jumpy eh? Then why were you tugging on me favorite shirt? AND at the one part you were practically in my lap."

She shrugged at him "Ah was NOT all ovah you Pyro! Get those sick things outta your head! Remember sugah Ah cant touch! But, if you want me to, Ah'll surely let you take alil 4 week nap." She grinned at her own sarcasm.

"Shelia you know I like alil bit of danger. And 'sides playing with fire is always nice." He winked suggestively at Rogue. He realized something just brilliant. "Wait one minute you called me "sugah" that means Pyro's charms are working just abit on lil Roguey over here." He draped his arm around her shoulder and leaned in towards Rogue's face, about two inches apart from hers.

She felt his warm spicy breath against her face; his body producing a certain warmth that comforted her and made her become "giddy" with excitement. She tried to look menacing but all failed when his lips touched hers for a brief moment. His touch was intoxicating to her, but he quickly pulled away.

'Damn Ahm so stupid! Ah cant touch!' she mentally hit herself with a bat, no a metal bat. And just as she suspected she had yet another slightly faded psyche in her head. She blinked and looked at Pyro sitting at the other end of the couch now, holding his head.

"You sure make a guy's head spin Rogue." He gave her a lopsided grin trying, no trying, to reassure she'd done nothing wrong. "I'm sorry for being alil forward Rogue. I really Am." He took her gloved hand into his hand and looked up into her eyes with a sad puppy dogface, his blue eyes grew.

NOTE: I HAD to write another chapter, and sadly I think its even shorter then the last one but this time I PROMISE the next chappie WILL be long just give me alil more time and reviews! Lol I hope this chapter is good and not too rushed. Sighs will more later!
