She awoke to the light noise of breathing beside her. Rogue was alarmed but quickly regained her composure when she remembered the night before. She looked over and caught a glimpse of her boyfriend Pietro lying beside her.
-That sounds nice, mah boyfriend-
Pietro was sprawled out on the bed, his position not exactly the most flattering. His leg was on top of hers while the other one was to the side. His head was facing her even though he was lying on his back. After moving a bit, she realized that his arm was under her neck and his hand was on her shoulder. Rogue blushed a bit. One lazy icy blue eye opened.
"You like this position?"
She jumped in surprise a bit at his voice. Pietro smirked and looked at her seductively. A blush crept into her cheeks and he played on it. In a flash he was on top of her, his legs straddled over hers.
"Or like this?"
Rogue laughed and pulled him down for a light kiss on the lips. Pietro lightly shivered at her touch started tickling her.
"Pietro stop!! You know ah'm ticklish!"
Their laughter filled the room as the clock turned 12:56 in the afternoon. After about a good five minutes, they composed themselves and lie in the bed. Rogue lightly caressed his face and was about to pull away until she remembered they hadn't changed clothes. Her shoulders relaxed in relief when she noticed she still had on her gloves. She slid out of his arms and walked to the bathroom. Pietro groaned.
"Where are you going?"
She shook her head.
"To tha bathroom stupid, I need to take a shower."
Pietro shrugged a bit and smiled.
"You do that. I'll be right here."
As she walked into the bathroom he watched her evilly. When the door closed, he jumped up and started rummaging through a pile on the floor.
"I'll be right here all right. RIGHT HERE SCHEMEING. Revenge will be mine!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Institute was quiet for a Saturday. All of the younger students had gone out to the amusement park while the older group stayed home thinking about their predicament. They were all in the professor's study. Everyone was there, minus Logan.
"Virst Spyke, now Rogue! No ovvense Storm."
Storm looked at Kurt and smiled sadly.
"Its okay, Evan chose his own path."
"Yeah."
There was a light mumble through the group and no-one wanted to step up and say the obvious.
"Like, what do we do now?"
Kitty looked around sheepishly and everyone started to murmur amongst themselves. None of them wanted to think about it but they HAD to.
"I know this is hard for you all but we HAVE to figure this out."
All eyes turned to the professor.
"I have picked up a strong vibe from Mystique lately. I believe she knows about Rogue and Pietro. For some reason its distressing her more than it did before."
Scott nodded his head.
"The bottom line here is that Rogue is essential to the team and whatever is coming up."
Kitty cocked her head to the side.
"How do you know that?"
"Easy. I highly doubt Magneto wants Rogue to be near Pietro now. He has too much at stake for his son to go soft. BUT, there must be some value in Rogue for him to take a chance in weakening his son."
Jean sighed.
"So what you're saying is that Magneto doesn't want Rogue around Pietro, but he wants the upper hand so he's keeping her around so when everything goes down, he's ready."
"Yeah."
Xavier was tapping the balls of his fingers together during the hypothesis and he nodded.
"You're exactly right, however, don't put emotions past Magnus. He would do anything for Pietro because Pietro is his heir. Part of him wants to give his son something to make amends for his crimes against him."
Storm nodded her head.
"So Rogue has two roles to play with Magneto."
The professor nodded as well.
"Yes."
Again the room fell silent. Kitty shifted uncomfortably.
"Do you think she'll ever come back to us?"
The professor closed his eyes solemnly in thought. After a few seconds they opened again.
"I don't know Kitty, I just don't know."
Her eyes casted their gaze to the floor while Kurt balled his fist and looked at Kitty.
"She knows ve are alvays here vor her. She'll come back, one day. I know it!"
Scott looked at the serious faced blue mutant with admiration.
"Why do think she is?"
Kurt looked up at Scott, his eyes wide.
"Because she is part ov our family, she's our friend and she's my zister. And I know she'll never desert me like Mystique."
Kurt's statement infused them all with hope. He had a point. She had to come back sometime. She was one of them and she belonged with the X-men. Storm's eyes were lightly tearing up and she smiled a bit.
"You know, you're right Kurt. Its only a matter of time. What's important is that she's safe and with the guy she loves."
They all nodded, their spirits a bit higher. The door opened and they all poured out, going about the day as usual. She will some day, she just has to. How could she not? Would she? They all pondered the answers to themselves, each person believing their own view on the outcome and hoping for the best.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The shower had been invigorating. Rogue yawned. It was now 1:30 and she was now refreshed even though she was still shaking sleepiness off of her. She slightly opened the door and peered out.
-Oh crap! Ah forgot mah clothes!-
She started to panic, and then she calmed down.
"Duh, just put on the old clothes, get the new ones and change in tha bathroom."
She rolled her eyes at her folly and turned to pick up the clothes. A light breeze greeted her bare butt.
"Oh crap."
A laughed made itself known behind her.
"I've always known you had a nice butt! To bad you're wearing a towel so I cant see it!"
He smirked while she fumed.
"You JERK!! Give those back!"
Rogue placed her arms and hands over her body, trying to protect herself. He grinned and took in her curves.
"You are amazingly beautiful. I think I like you better half naked!"
Before she could counter, he ran out of the room. She growled in frustration and blew a strand of hair out of her face. She might be able to make it but...
-Ah have no choice-
Rogue peered out of the door. Satisfied that the coast was clear, she made a mad dash for her clothes. With lightning speed only matched by Pietro, she ran back into the bathroom. A triumphant smile was on her face until she opened the bag.
"THAT SNEAK!"
All of clothes had been replaced with lingerie and skimpy clothes that all had mesh. She ground her teeth and put on the least revealing outfit.
"He is SO dead!"
Rogue continued to grumble to herself as she pulled on her clothes. Through the door, her growls of frustration could be heard and Pietro re-entered the room, grinning like a mad man.
-Perfection!-
Pietro casually pulled out a slip of folded paper and slid it under the bathroom door.
"For you love!"
Rogue's head shot up and she immediately stopped growling. She not to bother to open the door because she knew he was gone. The light breeze that came from the note had met her foot and she bent down to pick it up. One of her white strands fell in her face and she pulled it back as she read the note.
=Hey sweetness! I would like to officially welcome you to my humble home! To rejoice your arrival there will be drinks and *wink* entertainment! Be sure to wear your finest because I cant wait to show you off! It starts at 8 and ends whenever so feel free to explore my room! Later sweets!
-Pietro=
Rogue unconsciously rolled her eyes. A smiled formed on her lips and she had an idea.
"Oh yes Pietro, I WILL dress for the occasion...."
It was now her turn to grin insanely.
::Later::
Pietro had been making preparations for the 'party' and had just finished rigging the 'entertainment'. He smiled manically and set up the stereo.
-Too bad Boom's not here.-
His smile spread wider as he thought of her partying habits. Pietro connected the large speaker into the TV setup and made a noise of content when he was satisfied to know that it was properly installed. He looked at his watch.
-3 minutes till showtime. Right on time, as usual.-
He would have been done in less than two minutes, but today he felt like taking his sweet time. A group of voices approached the room and he greeted them with a smirk.
"Welcome to my initiation! You all know the rules: there are none, except for not touching my girl, got it?"
They grunted and instantly began to chow down. Pietro cranked up the volume and the party began.
Rogue walked down the hall and was greeted by the music before she could even turn the corner. She could feel the bass pounding against her body and decided that this would be fun. As she walked in she immediately noticed the no shows: Magneto and Gambit.
-Must not have gotten an invitation.-
She shrugged it off. It was better that way. Rogue placed her hands on her hips and decided to make her grand entrance.
-Now or neva-
She swayed her hips as she walked into the middle of the guys. A light hint of surprise clicked inside as she saw an older man among the group as well as Wanda. She turned and posed like a model and smiled seductively.
"AH'M HERE!"
She causally leaned against the guy she secretly called the human match and began to play with his hair.
"So tell me, where is that boyfriend of mine?"
Rogue smiled sweetly and put her face close to his.
"Hm?"
He gulped and luckily was saved.
"Hey now, lets not get THAT acquainted!"
Pietro wrapped his arm around her waist and let her to the 'throne'. She laughed at him as he sat her on his lap. Everyone began to party once more. Pietro murmured into her ear.
"Trying to make me jealous love?"
He growled low and sexily and she couldn't help but laugh.
"Yeah, ah guess so. So, where's this entertainment?"
Pietro looked at his watch and smiled.
"Well if my calculations are correct, 25 seconds."
She looked at him questionably and was about to ask him about something else but sure enough, his 'entertainment' arrived.
"WHAT THE BLOODY HELL!!"
Everyone turned to the doorway to see a pissed Gambit with, what's this? WHITE HAIR! Pietro acted innocently and looked at his watch again.
"Darn, my calculation was off by 5 seconds. Damn, gotta work on that."
He gave Gambit a cheeky grin. Gambit took a menacing step forward.
"PIETRO! YOU FUCKING BASTARD!"
A look of mock hurt graced his features.
"Why that's not TRUE! My dad is off on business."
Rogue couldn't help but crack a smile. It was so cute how he was set on marking his territory. She tossed back her strands of white hair haughtily.
"Ah just love that color but ah'm afraid that It just don't look good on ya chere."
They both could tell he was utterly embarrassed. Gambit bit his bottom lip. He closed his eyes and opened them with a smirk.
"Well, I really don't know what came over me. I should be thanking you Pietro, now I can dye my hair any color I want."
Pietro nodded his head and Gambit turned to head out.
"Yeah that's right. Maybe I should color it GREEN, but no, make that YELLOW. Hmmm, so many decisions, I really think they would work best for you though. Later."
Pietro ground his teeth and Rogue snickered.
"Cool it demon, ya got 'im."
He breathed in and smiled again.
"Well, he's jealous he doesn't have hair like mine."
Pietro motioned at his hair and Rogue laughed. His two, usually loose strands of hair were positioned as horns. She poked at his hair.
"Ahhhhh yes, the miracles of hair gel. So, that was an interesting piece of entertainment."
He arched his eyebrows.
"You think its over? Not by a long shot hun. HEY IRON MAN, HIT IT!"
She looked at him weird and the lights dimmed and a familiar voice filled the room.
"Ah don't know! This feels a bit tight!"
Rogue turned to the screen, speechless. All Pietro needed at that moment was a black cape and a pitchfork.
-MUHAHAHAAAAAA! VENGEANCE IS MINE!-
"It looks good Rogue like besides, we're gonna be busting bad guys!"
Rogue snorted.
"Ah wondered where that tape went!"
Pietro grinned.
"Heh, you have your tape, I have mine."
Rogue tossed back her strands again. This wasn't so bad.
"OH MY GOD ROGUE! THERE'S LIKE, A SPLIT IN YOUR PANTS!"
"FUCK! TURN THE CAMERA OFF!"
"Wow, didn't know you wore thongs!"
"SHUT UP BOOM BOOM!"
"Ima show this to Sco~t."
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!"
There was a collective laugh throughout the room but the sound that was the loudest was Rogue.
"PIETROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! YOU ARE SO DEAD!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
heh heh, dont kill me. I've been working on this for months but I've been busy, senior year and all.
And oh yeah, how could i think to end THIS?
How could I let Rogue get away with getting the best Pietro?
Shoot, GAMBIT?
PU-LEASSSEEEE! (o)_(o) I so silly, please review.
