Sorry these chapters have been so short but I like to spread the ideas out. Also, I'm sorry if there have been/are/going to be any typos. I hurt my wrist and am having a little trouble typing, but the show must go on. Also, about the Professor being, well, not dead- I needed him for the story. Without him around there aren't enough intellectual and mature people around. SO please just give me some leeway on that one if you would- I NEEDED THE PROFESSOR! Lol. Anyways here's chapter 4…please review!

Well That's New

When Bobby arrived in the kitchen, he didn't bother turning the lights on- he knew this place backwards and forwards. He pulled open the freezer, ready for some ice cream when he heard a familiar voice behind him. "Your too late Iceman, already have the Rocky Road mwahahah!"

Bobby laughed to himself turned around to find rouge eating the Rocky Road straight from the carton. "That's nice Rouge, just eat it right out of there and contaminate it all up so nobody else can eat it"

"Oh shut up!" she told him, "do you want any or not?"

"Yea I want some," he muttered with defeat.

"Oh can you get me a glass of water while your up please?" Rouge asked sweetly

"Anything for you my white haired angel" bobby replied with a smirk

With that Bobby got a spoon, filled up a glass full of water and blew on to make it cold for her. He made his way over to the table and sat down. After putting everything down on the table, he took Rouge's hand and began to dig into the delicious carton of rocky road that sat in front of them.

They sat there in content silence enjoying their ice cream, each other, and the rarity of complete silence in their school. But after a couple of minutes, Rouge began to squirm and Bobby figured something was up.

"Is something wrong?"

"No" Rouge hastily replied, "No I'm fine"

"No your not Rouge, 'cuz I know you and I know when your fine and now is not it. What's wrong?"

"Nothing- well something but not really anything that's a big deal its not important never mind" She had some trouble getting all of that out without Bobby catching on

"Hey, if it's bothering you then it is a big deal. So just tell me, what's on your mind?"

"Okaaaay" she said overly exaggerating the word. She took a deep breath and said rather quickly "So the night I left I saw you and kitty skating in the fountain and being all touchy and hand-holdy and stuff and I was so happy to see you when I got back earlier that I didn't want to ruin the moment with obnoxious over jealous girlfriend stuff so yea. That's what I was thinking about."

Taking everything in with a sigh, Bobby began "Wait? Is that why you left to get the cure? Because you thought I was into Kitty because I can touch her and not you?"

"Umm, yes?" Rogue replied with a bit of embarrassment.

"Rogue, I love YOU. Kitty was just having a hard time and I was just trying to be a friend. And she doesn't really have that many people who she's really close with and I was just trying to help. I'm sorry that I made you feel that way. Seriously, me and Kitty are just friends."

"I know. I'm sorry. I love you too." She took his hand again and slid up against him.

They sat there for another few minutes holding hands again and talking about what Rouge had missed in some classes while she was gone. She reached for her water and went to take a sip, but when she tilted up the glass, she got hit in the nose with a huge cylinder of ice. "Ouch!" she yelped and Bobby jumped from the sudden noise, dropped her hand, and looked over.

"What was THAT?" he asked with worry and a bit of shock and mockery in his voice.

But Rouge was too distracted to answer. When she grabbed the glass of water, it had immediately and completely turned to ice.

"Well" she stated, "that's new".

So that's it everyone, chapter four…don't you just loooove a cliffhanger?

Catch you with chapter 5 soon
