This chapter has been changed, though I liked it better than this one, but I still have the original copy of the other one. It was orginally a songchapter, but just to make sure the site stays away from my story I reposted it.

Rogue turned to her side and slowly opened her eyes. The alarm clock next to her had two minute before it would go off. She could hear her new room mate Jubilee sleeping still. She turned to look at where she last saw Remy, but found he was not there.
She sat up in her bed and began searching the room from her spot. 'Where he is?' She thought to herself as she pulled the covers off of her and stepped onto the floor.
Rogue went into the bathroom to see if he was in there for some reason. When she entered it was empty. 'He probably is just wandering around the mansion.' She thought to herself as she came out of the bathroom.
She went over to the door that lead into the hallway and opened it. She looked down the hallway. 'He couldn't of gone that far, he never left mah side.' She thought to herself, also beginning to worry.
She heard the alarm clock go off and heard Jubilee groan and place a pillow over her head. "Can you go to class for me and give me the assignment?" Jubilee said under the pillow.
"Ah don't think so. Ah'm gonna take a shower first, when Ah'm out ya can go in." Rogue told her friend as she went to the dresser to get out a new pair of clothes.
"I don't need a shower." Jubilee said as she turned onto her stomach.
"Ya goin ta go to class smelling?" Rogue asked her.
"If it means a few more minutes of sleep, then yes." Jubilee replied as she went back to sleep. Rogue shook her head and went into the bathroom.
Rogue closed the door behind her and turned the shower on. She began to strip from her clothes, throwing them on the floor. She then stepped into the shower and let the water hit her face.
'What if he really is gone?' She began to think as she washed her neck with a rag and soap. She then grabbed the shampoo and began to run it through her hair. She let the water wash all the soap off her skin and hair as she leaned against the shower wall.
'No, he wouldn't.' She thought to herself. 'He promised he would not leave me.' She told herself as she ran a hand through her hair to make sure all the shampoo had left it. Once satisfied she turned off the water and grabbed two towels hanging outside the shower.
She wrapped once around her and the other in her hair. She then stepped out of the shower and onto the bathroom tile. She dried herself off with the towel around and then began to start putting her fresh clothes on.
She placed her hand on the door knob and turned it to open the door. When she looked into the room she was expecting to see a pair of red on black eyes looking back at her. However, there were none.
'He really did leave meh.' She thought to herself as she threw her dirty clothes on her bed and grabbed her notebook, before exiting the room, and leaving a sleep Jubilee.
She walked down the hallway and was heading down for breakfast. She paid no attention to the people that passed by her as she walked down.
"Miss. Rogue!" She heard two little voices yell in excitement as Rahne and Jamie came down the opposite side of the hall.
"How are ya guys?" She asked with a half smile.
"I am fine." Jamie said and then frowned. "What's wrong? You look upset." Jamie told her as he looked up at the older girl.
"Were the other kids mean to you?" Rahne asked her. "If they did I can always place water on the stairs for when they go down there. Then they will slip!" She said to Rogue.
"Everythin's fine." She told them both. "Did ya get breakfast?" She asked them and they shook their heads, yes. "I'm headin down there, Ah'll see ya both later." She said to them.
"Bye Rogue, have a good day!" Rahne told her with a smile on her face as the two young children ran down the hallway.
'Ah'll try.' She thought to herself as she walked to the stairs and began going down them
Rogue entered into the kitchen to find Bobby, Kitty, and Piotr all standing in there chatting. "Hey Rogue, sleep good?" Kitty greeted Rogue.
"Yeah, Ah guess Ah did." Rogue replied as she went into the fridge and found a chocolate muffin.
"We saved you the last one and were guarding it so Jubilee or any of the other kids didn't take it." Piotr told her. She took the muffin out of the fridge.
"Thanks guys." She said with a fake smile.
"Did you do the assignment today?" Bobby asked Rogue as he drank his water. "What was it, we had to read Wuthering Heights?" Bobby looked at Kitty, who shrugged.
"I read a page of it and got bored." Kitty told him.
"Oh mah god, Ah forgot to read it." Rogue almost choked on the muffin, she had always done her homework on time. She was one of the few that actually did it. 'Although, I had nothing else ta do before. Then Ah met Remy, Ah guess Ah got a little side tracked.' She thought to herself.
"It's alright, I'm sure the Professor won't get mad." Piotr said to her.
"Ah think Ah'll go and get there early, maybe Ah can read a bit before class starts." Rogue told them as she left the kitchen with a half eaten muffin.
Rogue walked quickly down the hallway and into the Professor's office. 'Shit, Ah can't believe Ah forgot to read it.' She started to curse to herself as she entered into the office.
There were chairs spread around the room and the Professor was not in office yet. She sat down and placed her notebook on the floor. A paper fell out of it. She bent down and took the paper to find it was the newspaper she had days before.
'Why is it almost everything around here has ta remind meh of him.' She thought to herself as she placed the newspaper clip into the notebook. She then went over to the shelf and grabbed their assign book and began to read it.
Kids started to come into the class room. All of them sat around the room. Betsy took a seat next to Rogue. "Forget to do your assignment?" She asked Rogue.
Rogue looked up from her book. "Yeah, kinda forgot." Rogue replied as she went back to reading.
"It's alright, I forgot to read also." Betsy said to her. Just then the Professor wheeled into the room.
"Good morning class." Xavier greeted his class as he rolled behind his desk. "Did everyone read the book?" He asked his students, raising a eyebrow. None of them answered and he sighed. 'I think I should be more strict with them about reading.' He thought to himself.
"Very well, I have some vocab words I would like you to all write down." He told them as he rolled over to a projector and turned it on.
Rogue grabbed her notebook to find she had brought the wrong notebook to class. 'Just mah luck.' She thought as she flipped through to find a page she had written on.
'What were ya powers?' The little message said. She looked down at the notes she had been writing while history class. It had been the first day she had been with Remy.
Rogue shook her head and shut the notebook. "Can Ah borrow a piece of paper?" Rogue asked Betsy as she placed the notebook under her chair and acted like she never looked at it. Just then Jubilee came into class, still her in her pajamas.
"Sorry I am late." She said to the Professor as she quickly took a seat next to Rogue. "So what did I miss?" She whispered to Rogue.
"Nothin." Rogue replied as Betsy handed her a piece of paper.
"That will be for today." The Professor turned off the projector and the students got up from their seats to leave. "Don't forget, you have to go to the Danger Room after this." He told them all, most of them started to complain as they left.
Rogue grabbed her things and placed the book she had taken back on the shelf. She walked out of the classroom and to the elevator.
'Ah knew this would all happen, but why so soon?' She asked herself as she made it to the elevator and pushed the button to signal the elevator. She sighed as the door opened and she stepped inside the elevator and let it take her to the lower level.
"At least he will be at peace now." She whispered to herself as she leaned against the wall. The doors to the elevator opened and she saw that some people were already down there and were walking into the Danger Room.
'Ah guess Ah'll have ta except he's gone.' She thought to herself as she stepped out.
Rogue walked in to find someone was in the middle of a simulation and watched from the side. She looked over and saw Logan and Scott supervising the simulation. Other kids were just waiting for their turn so they could leave.
She looked at the center of the Danger Room. 'This was where he helped meh last time Ah was in here and in the one in mah head.' She thought to herself as the program stopped.
"Okay that was very good Alex." Scott said to the student, who began walking to the exit. "Though I do have some pointers I would like to talk to you about." He said as he began to follow Alex, who rolled his eyes.
"Whose next?" Logan asked, most of the kids had wanted to leave, but none of them wanted the work out. "Ya got to go sooner or later, if no one goes, then I will increase everyone's time." He told them all.
"Ah'll go." Rogue volunteered as she placed her notebook on the ground and walked forward.
"Ya sure your up for it darlin?" He asked her. She folded her arms over her chest.
"Ah'm fine." She told him. "Just start it." She walked to the center of the Danger Room and waited for the simulation to begin. Soon her surroundings changed into a swamp.
'Oh this is great.' She thought to herself as she began looking around for what was suppose to attack her. 'Just what Ah need ta try and get over him.' She thought to herself.
Then a creature came out of a tree and attacked her. Rogue dodged out of the way. The creature was all black and had red eyes that were glaring at her. Rogue waited for the creature to make the first move.
It soon leapt into the air to attack her. As soon as it was close to the ground she jumped out of the way, but found herself floating. "What the?" She looked confused. Never in a simulation had this happened. 'Oh yeah, Ah got Carol's powers.' She began to recall, still not use to the idea of having the ability to fly.
'This was so much easier in mah head.' She thought to herself as she placed her feet back on the ground. The creature caught her off guard and tackled her to the ground. It hissed at her as she tried to get up. She then sent her fists into it's chest and it flew back.
Rogue got to her feet and found the creature had disappeared. "Where did it go?" She whispered to herself as she began looking around her. Soon the swamp surroundings disappeared and she was back in the Danger Room.
"Excellent job." Logan told her with a smile.
"That was it?" She asked, the last time the simulation had lasted longer. "Ah thought it was suppose to run longer?" She asked him.
"No that's it for today." He told her. "Whose next?" He asked the kids. One stepped up to go for the simulation
"Rogue that was awesome!" Bobby and the others greeted her. They had just arrived and saw her simulation.
"Yeah, like you totally nailed that thing." Kitty told her.
"Thanks guys." She said with a smile. "It wasn't that hard." She told them.
"I hope I get a easy one." Jubilee yawned next to Bobby, who then held his nose.
"Didn't you brush your teeth today?" He asked her as he took a step away from her. Jubilee stuck her tongue out at him.
"We were thinking of going out after our simulations are over. There is a great nightclub in town. Ya want to come?" Betsy asked Rogue.
'Ya never would be talkin ta meh if ya didn't feel bad.' She began to think. 'He had no problem talkin ta meh and never treated meh like a freak like the rest of you.' She added in her head. "No thanks, Ah got something Ah want to do." She told them.
"Alright, if you change your mind, the offer is still there." Warren told her. She smiled at him and nodded.
"Thanks." She said as she exited out of the Danger Room. Bobby watched her leave and followed after her.
Rogue walked out of the Danger Room and started heading for the elevator. "Hey Rogue!" She heard from behind her. She turned around to see Bobby standing there.
"Hey Bobby, what do ya want?" She asked him. She had forgotten to take her notebook, but didn't care. The only thing she wanted to do was go to her room. 'Why does everything remind meh of him?' She had asked herself that the whole day, and she knew the answer to it too.
"I was wonder if, well." He began to say as he took his hand and ran a hand through his hair nervously. "I was wondering if you wanted to go out tomorrow?" He finally said.
"As a date?" She asked him, raising a eyebrow. 'Ya were the one that dumped meh.' She thought to herself.
"I know I hurt you bad last time, but I would like to start over." He said to her, taking the hand away from his head and looking at her.
"Listen, Ah'm flattered. But Ah'd rather us be friends instead." She told him. 'Mah heart belongs to someone else.' She added in her head. 'Although Ah doubt he knew how much Ah really cared about him.' She began to think.
"Oh, sure that's no problem." Bobby told her disappointedly. "Well I'll see you later." He said to her as he turned around and began walking back to the Danger Room.
Rogue watched him leave and a tear ran down her face. She took her hand and quickly wiped it away. She didn't want anyone to see her cry. She pushed the button for the elevator and waited.
'Here Ah thought mah days of cryin were over, Ah guess they are just beginnin.' She thought to herself as the elevator finally arrived. She stepped into the elevator when it opened and took her to the upper level.
'He is just like the rest of them.' She thought to herself angrily. 'Sayin he'll always be there and then leaves.' The elevator door opened and she walked out quickly.
She walked down the hall and up to the stairs. "Hey Rogue!" She heard someone greet her. She turned to see Miss. Munroe standing there.
"Hi." She said, stopping in her tracks to greet her teacher.
"How have you been feeling?" Storm asked Rogue. Rogue shrugged her shoulders.
"Ah've been better, Ah guess." She answered truthfully.
"Is there something wrong? You can always talk to me." Ororo said as she placed a hand on Rogue's shoulder. Rogue shook her head and then brought a fake smile on her face.
'Not unless you can bring back the dead.' She thought to herself before speaking. "No, nothing's wrong. Ah just didn't get much sleep.
"Very well, I'll be seeing you tomorrow in class." Ororo said as she turned away and began walking to the Professor's office.
'No, ya won't.' She thought to herself, finally coming up with a solution. 'Ah'm leavin here.' She decided as she went up the stairs. 'Everythin here reminds meh of him, maybe if Ah travel for a bit, then it might get better.' She thought as she made it to the top of the stairs.
Rogue ran to her room and shut the door behind her. She wiped her eyes again before going into the side closet and pulling out a large backpack. 'Ah only need a few things.' She thought to herself as she went into the draws and pulled some clothes out and stuffed them into the bag.
She went into the bathroom and took her hairbrush and a few other things and placed them in the bag as well. She zipped the bag up and then looked back at the dresser. She saw the two pictures of Jubilee and Logan and went over to them. She picked them up and stared at them for a few seconds.
"Ah'm sorry, Ah promise Ah'll write to ya and call as often as Ah can." She vowed as she brought the pictures to the bag and placed them in a side compartment in her backpack.
She had packed everything she had needed. "Ah should go tell the Professor Ah will be leavin and thank him for lettin meh stay." She whispered to herself as she opened the door and brought her bag down the hall and down the stairs.
Rogue dropped her bag outside the office. 'Do Ah really want ta do this?' She thought to herself. She closed her eyes for a second. 'There is no other way Ah can think of gettin over him. It's for the best.' She thought to herself as she knocked on the door.
"Come in." The Professor's voice said through the door. Rogue waited a second before opening the door and stepping in.
His office was back to how it normally was. The chairs that he used for the classroom were stacked to the side and in front of his desk were two large leather chairs.
"Professor may I speak with you." She said as she closed the door behind her.
"Yes, Rogue. What is it?" The Professor asked his eyes went from the chair in front of him to Rogue.
"Ah, um." She began to say. 'Ah hate havin ta leave them. They were nice ta meh.' She thought as she tried to speak again. She walked a forward a bit more and noticed that someone was sitting in the chair.
"Ah didn't know ya were busy, Ah'll come back later." She said to the Professor as she turned around to walk out.
"No Rogue, it's quite alright." The Professor told her. She stopped as she got to the door. "I was just going over the rules with our new arrival." He said to her, she turned around as the person in the chair got up.
Rogue's mouth dropped open as the new person stood in front of her and took her hand. 'Ah finally lost it.' She thought to herself as the person kissed her hand.
"Bonjour, chere. Y' want to give Remy a tour of dis place?" He asked her, she stared at him, and he winked at her.
"Rogue, this is Remy LeBeau. He just arrived earlier today."
