WolvGambit Le Diable Blanc- Glad to hear that. Love your fics too you know. But will definitely do my best with those updates for you. :-)
IvyZoe- Yeah, I was trying. Will be explaining the fight here though. Don't worry, Logan will be explained too. ;-) A fight without him doing something almost does seem wrong, doesn't it. ;-) LOL.
LEAVE ME ALONE
Rogue finally reached her room, and couldn't help but enjoy the solitude. Right now she just wanted to be left alone. No crowds, no people, no fighting. But that didn't last long, there was a knock at her door. She groaned as soon as it happened, wishing for whoever it was to magically disappear.
"Rogue?" they called out from the door. She took a deep breath and answered the door.
"Can Ah help ya Ororo?"
"Yes, you certainly can. May I come
in?" Rogue forced a smile.
"If you think it's necessary."
she mumbled as she walked back to her bed and layed down next to one
of her romance novels. Ororo looked around as if she were surveying
the place, almost, looking for something.
"So, what'cha needin'?"
"About downstairs-"
"Ah'm fahne, just a lot on mah mahnd." she added quickly, picking up the book acting as if she were about to read it.
"No, not that. I'm sorry, I might have aggravated the misunderstanding."
"Pardon?" Rogue sat up straight, not quite understanding.
"The fight." Rogue rolled her eyes.
"Ah could care less 'bout that sug."
"I doubt that. You see, when Gambit brought you downstairs from finding you in your room, I made some accusations-"
"An' came ta appologize."
"Yes, and that Joseph came in while I was doing the accusing. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have thought those things. I mean, it's not like you two could have been doing something with your, um-"
"Powers."
"Yes."
"So you an' Gambit are the new couple." catching on to the whole conversation, she stated rather than questioned.
"No, it's just, um, he's a good friend." she almost sounded sad about it.
"Oh, and ya thought Ah would hurt him?" Rogue stood up asking bitterly.
"Yes, I mean no. That's not at all what I mean Rogue."
"Look," Rogue said and then sighed, "Ororo, Ah understand. But if ya could just give meh some time ta rest, Ah'm really tired. Ya don't have nothin' ta worry 'bout. Ya said it yaself." But just as she opened the door for Ororo to leave her room, she found the exit blocked by two arguing men who she didn't want to see right then. Both men looked as if they had been caught with their hand in the cookie jar. Well, until Remy noticed Storm in Rogue's room. That caught his attention quickly. He didn't know what to think right then, but by the look on Rogue's face, it couldn't be good. Ororo looked back at Rogue and mumbled an 'I'm sorry.' and headed out the door as the two men moved out of the way for her. But just as Storm left, both men looked at the woman before them and simultaneously said, "Rogue?"
She leaned against the doorframe thinking about just slamming the door on them, but knew that she would never get any peace. So she opted to giving them whatever moment they needed to say whatever it was and leaver her alone.
"Yeah?" she asked rather impatiently. Joseph took a step forward.
"Rogue, I just wanted to apologize for what had happened earlier. You shouldn't have had to seen that-"
"An' it shouldn't have happened." but then Remy decided to try and put his two cents in, and Rogue stopped him.
"Chere?"
"Look, Ah'm gonna lay this out straight so that there's no confusion. Ah am untouchable. Have been, will be, forever an' always. Not lahke some man needs ta complicate his life for the lahkes of lil' ol' meh. So whay don't ya two find yaself new love interests and leave meh out'ta whatevah it is ya think this is. Ah am not any man's. There is no point ta fight ovah somethin' ya can't have. It ain't lahke it makes meh feel any more important. Ah got more than 'nough problems." then she did what she had wanted to do all this time, she stepped back and slammed the door. Then she let out a deep breath as she leaned against the door and slid down it.
