CHAPTER 2
TAKING OVER ME
Logan arrived to a dark mansion after his long eight hour visit to the North Star. That wasn't such a surprise, considering that's it's nearly 3:30 in the morning. But as he walked into the mansion and down the hallways, he was a little surprised that his bedroom light was on. Rogue must of waited for him again.
Ever since he came back to the school, Rogue would sometimes stay up late, at night, to make sure no one is awake, so that she could talk to Logan. She loves to confind in him about the things that bothered her, usually about arguments and problems with her boyfriend, Bobby. He just can't understand why a beautiful girl like herself is dating a guy like Bobby. That boy annoyed Logan more than anything. Bobby just acts way to much like Scott, and everybody knows how those two got along. But Logan made damn sure that "Iceboy" was well warned by him that if he'd ever hurt Rogue in anyway, the boy would never see the light of day ever again. Logan was still very protective of Rogue and still lives up to that promise he made to her nearly a year ago to take care of her. Besides, someone had to keep an eye out for that girl and he never minds at all.
He entered into his room where he found Rogue, sound asleep in chair. He then quietly walked up to her and tried to tap her shoulder carefully, since she was wearing a tank top instead of a sleeved shirt and had no gloves on.
"Hey Kid, wake up." Logan wispered into Rogue's ear. She then slowly lifted up her head as she opened up her eyes.
"Oh, hey Logan. I guess I kinda feel asleep here. What time is it?"
"It nearly four o'clock in the moring. What were you doing stayin' up so late?" ask Logan.
Rogue began to get up from the chair and started to stretch."I was just waiting for you to come back home from wherever you were at. I just wanted to talk a little bit."
"Is it about Bobby again?" he asked.
"Well that didn't take you long to figure that out. I'm sorry if I annoy you with this, but today he just chosed to act like a total asshole twoards me."
Logan just chuckled."When hasn't he ever acted like one?"
"Ha,ha,ha. Very funny Rogue replied sarcasticly."But seriously, Logan. Today I told him that I wanted to cancel our movie date for tomorrow so that I can catch up with things. I have a billion things to do tomorrow with planning Jubilee's surprise party at Club Seventeen for next month, I gotta get some job applications, and I still have a huge research paper due for Storm. So he then blows up on me by saying 'Oh right, you can spend all your time for Jubilee and jerks like Logan, but not for your own boyfriend!' And let me tell you, I was this close from beating him down to the ground. Why the hell would he say something like that? That is completly rediculous! Do guys have PMS too that I just don't know about?"
This was just all so funny to Logan. Teenagers these days. They take things way too dramaticly.
"Well with Iceboy you never know." he laughed, "He's just jelaous. I can't blame him though, he just can't admit that pretty girl like you likes to spend all her time with a real man like me."
"Oh, you wish Logan." she scarasticly replied. She tried so hard not to laugh. "So what do you think I should do."
"You know, you could ask anyone around in this house, and yet you still ask me. Why me?"
"I just want to hear what you have to say, that's all."
"I'm not so good at doing this stuff, but if you want to know, I guess you could, um, not talk to him for a bit. He'll get over himself eventually. He can't stand to think that you won the argument, so he'll try to end to make it like he won. Is that it?"
"Yeah, that's it." Rogue smiled. She can't help but to tell him stuff like this, wheather it's really important or really stupid. It brightens up her day, well technicly night now, to hear what he has to say. She just admires him that much. He's kinda like an older brother, or possibly even a father to her. A guy that acually cares about her everysingle day. Something that she truely cherishes.
She then motioned to his door, and decides to get some sleep if was going to take on the many things on her list in a few hours.
"I guess, I better get some sleep. Thanks, Logan. For talking and all."
"Anytime Kid, night." he replied to her.
As she left the room, he turn off his lights. He then takes off his clothes to put on something comfortable to sleep in. And as he crawles into bed, he thinks about the long, sleepless hours ahead of him. He hasn't been sleeping well lately. More dreams have haunted him lately. But not his regular occuring horror dreams of the experiment. Instead, different dreams come, and he can't figure out the connection they all have with him. But for now, darkness overcomes him as he drifts off to sleep. And eventually another dream will be there to take over him.
Back in downtown New York City, in an old, run-down apartment building, homes our young North Star girl. She is sound asleep while music is playing on her stereo to help her sleep. A beautiful song plays as she drifts deeper and deeper into her dream.
You don't remember me, but I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream?
And dream I do
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
to live, to breath... You're taking over me
A young, Asian woman in gorgous ivroy-white dress, stands outside on a rainy morning. She's on top of cliff that over looks the beautiful ocean. As she stands there, she places her hands around her swollen belly. A child she will bear soon.
Can you know what I know and all we have
You saw me mourning my love for you and touched my hand
I knew you loved me then.
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you
to live, to breath...
You're taking over me.
And then flash, another sequence apears. It is the young girl herself in a similar dress as the Asian woman. She stands in front of a mirror, brushing her long black hair. But in the mirror's reflection, she see the Asian woman again, brushing her hair with her.
I look in the mirror and see your face
if I look deep enough
So many things inside that just frighten you
are taking over
The two images keep flashing in and out, until the Asian woman in of the two sequences both try to whisper something, but the girl can't make it out.
And suddenly...
She wakes upp in cold sweat, her heart beating rapidy.
"I gotta stop watching those Ring Two previews.
