Chapter: 7
Rogue sat on one of the crates in an old ally a few miles from school. Her and the boys had found it about two years ago and decided it would be a perfect ditch hang out.
"Ooooo, it looks like Roguey decided to come." Pietro said zooming in, later followed by the rest of the Brotherhood. "But the question is did she bring friends?"
Pietro was gone in a flash and back in about five seconds. "Nope, nodda, she came alone."
Lance walked up to and sat down next to her Rogue. "So it seems you still trust us. We're glad Rogue we really missed you, yeh know."
She only narrowed her eyes suspiciously.
"Roguey, Roguey, Roguey why won't you relax. The person we wanted you to meet should be here any minute." Pietro said putting an arm around her, which she promptly pushed off.
"Yeah Rogue just pretend it's like the good ole times, yo!" Toad said hopping on a crate infront of her.
"So how's livin with all them goody good's?" Pietro asked.
"Better then livin with yeh idiots." She snapped, she did not like this situation in the least.
"Ouch!" Pietro pressed his hand to his heart. "You still have your spice it's good to see the x-geaks haven't rubbed it out of you yet."
"Yet?" She asked raising her eyebrow. "They ain't gonna rub it out of me eveh."
"Yeah right! Yo!" Toad sneered. "Soon you'll be a little Scott and Jean clone. Like all the other geeks."
She glared at him then with out the least bit of warning she sent a kick to his head.
"Hey!" The Blob shouted but Lance put a hand out signaling him not to interfere.
"Hey, yo that hurt, I'm an easy bruiser, yo." He whined holding his head.
" That isn't the onlah thang that's gonna bruised if you eveh mention me and Jean in the same sentence with out the words kill, mutilate, hurt, torture and any other specific things Ah'd like to do to her." Rogue snarled.
"And you still have got your temper too, that's good." Lance said "Hopefully the Xavier brats won't wipe that out of you aswell."
Rogue narrowed her eyes at him but only said "Where's your little friend I'm not waiting here with you boneheads for long."
"He'll be here, just have patience Rogue," Lance said as searched the streets.
"Patience? Since when-." She was about to ask when a black convertible drove up.
Inside was a boy maybe a few years older then herself. He had blonde hair falling about his face and bright green eyes. He wore a black long coat that just reached his knees, with black pants and a black T-shirt on that said ME in big capitalized letters, under that it said in small letters 'Don't say I didn't warn you.' Rogue had to admit he was hot.
He got out of the car and walked over examining them, his eyes finally rested on Rogue.
"I take it you're Rogue." He had a crisp sort of voice with a touch of an accent she just couldn't place.
"Who is it that's asking?" Rogue asked suspiciously. She had to be careful with this one, she just had this feeling something wasn't right about him.
"My name's Rodric." He said holding out his hand.
Rogue looked down at it then looked back up at him, raising an eyebrow. "And do yeh have a last name, Rodric?"
He kept his hand out and said "Do you have a last name, Rogue?"
When she was silent he sighed. "I'm not gonna bite."
She narrowed her eyes, but it seemed he was not going to give up on this whole hand shaking thing so she shook his hand, but when she pulled to let go he grasped her hand firmly. Rodric then pulled off her glove.
Before she could even comprehend what he was doing, he brought her bare hand up to his lips and laid a gentle kiss upon her palm.
Rogue couldn't move, couldn't think, she was in shock.
All she could do was stare at his lips on her palm and his bare hands on her own.
The warmth of his flesh was on hers, was like pure ecstacy. It made her feel safe, comfortable, she didn't want it to end.
But after a few minutes he stood back up still holding her hand gently in his.
His bright green eyes met hers. "I know what kind of hell hole, your life has been. Not being able to touch, everyone fearing you. Even the people you consider family going around and shoving that curse in your face by making out in front of you or reminding you to cover up. It shouldn't be that way Rogue. You shouldn't have to live with this, curse. I want to help you, Rogue, but only if you let me."

Remy had been trying to follow Rogue all day but unfortunately this was a school, and they actually wanted you to go to your class on time. He had just come out of Fourth period and was heading towards lunch when Kitty ran up to him.
"Hey Remy!" She said with a smile but it wasn't her normal cheery smile.
"What's up petite?" He asked still walking down the hall towards the cafeteria.
"Um, have you seen Rogue around, she wasn't in English, today which is weird. I mean it's not like her to ditch when we have something big due."
Remy stopped abruptly and pulled Kitty aside. "What? Yeh mean Rogue ain't here right now?"
"Uh…no." Kitty gave him a bewildered look. "but she's probably fine, I mean like she used to ditch English a lot back when she was with the brotherhood."
Remy grabbed Kitty by the shoulders. "Kitty dis is very important do yeh know where the brotherhood used to go when they ditched classes?"
"I… don't think so, but maybe…" Kitty bit her lip and examined the floor.
"Maybe what, Kitty?" Remy said tilting her chin up so she was looking back into his eyes.
"Well Lance once talked me into ditching class and we went to this old ally a few miles from here they had all kind of dece-."
"Come on petite." he said dragging her through the crowd and out the door.
"Wait a minute where are we going?" She said trying not to stumble as he pulled her out the front door.
"Yeh gonna show me where this lil ditch place is." Remy said heading towards Scott's car.
Kitty phased her arm through hand his. "Not until you tell me why."
"I'll tell you in the car." Remy said jumping into Scott's convertible starting to hot wire it.
He looked up to find Kitty still not moving. "Kitty it's really important! Rogue is in trouble."
"Rogue?"
"Just get in and I'll tell you everything."

A few minutes later and they were speeding down the road.
"But why would Rogue be that stupid, I mean the Brotherhoods obviously setting a trap. This is so not like Rogue."
"We don't know what dey told her, dat might be deh key."
"I still can't believe Rogue would do this."
A black convertible flew down the street almost crashing into them.
"Watch where you're going jack ass!" The driver yelled.
Remy yelled an insult back in French then turned into the ally to find an astonished Rogue.
She was sitting on a crate looking at them with wide eyes.
"What the hell are yeh'all doin here!" Rogue yelled once she had gotten over her surprise.
"Non dat's not the question dat should be asked, deh question that should be asked is what deh hell are yeh doin here!" He yelled slamming the door as he got out. "Rogue I know yeh ain't this stupid! Why deh hell would you come here alone!"
"You don't know anything Remy." Rogue said in a quiet voice.
"Then inform meh!"
"Rogue you know the Brotherhood are no good. It sounded like a total trap why would you go? I mean like what did they tell you?"
Rogue just narrowed her eyes at them. "They didn't show up. Not like Ah really expected them to." Then she looked into Remy's eyes. "Pietro was just trying to get at me, that was it. They were my friends before I joined the X-men, their good guys underneath so stop judging them."
Rogue sighed rubbing her forehead. She then picked up her bag and started walking away.
Remy grabbed her arm. "Rogue…"
She violently pulled her arm away. "Ah can't deal with this right now, okay!" Rogue yelled as she walked away.
Remy and Kitty exchanged looks.
What was with her?
