Rouge woke up the next morning to find a note attached to her bed stand from Bobby. He asked her to meet him during her free period of the day. Rouge still felt a high of happiness form yesterday. "Today is finally Friday !" as she said this she smiled to her self. Tonight she and Bobby would go to their regular spot at the dance club, only open to mutant student sixteen and up, every Friday on the lowest level of the school. Rouge quickly put on a cute burgundy long sleeve shirt with a pair of her favorite jeans and boots, her last touches were her famous gloves and some make-up. She headed off to her first class of the day, History. Most of the people in her class hated history, she couldn't blame them she didn't mind it but it wasn't her favorite class either. She wouldn't have any classes with Bobby until the of the day. Storm's (her history teacher) voice drifted in and out as Rouge day dreamed. She was trying so hard to stay awake, then all of a sudden something snapped her back awake completely, John (a.k.a.: Pyro) had thrown a massive fire ball at the world map and watched it fall to ash with a smile on his face. John had always been the class clown. Storm sighed this had not been the first time John had played with fire, John was wearing her patience. Storm sent him down to Professor X and continued with the lesson. The class could hear John's uncontrollable laughter all the way down the hall. Rouge could swear that she saw a glimmer of disappointment in Storm's eyes. Rouge could still hear everyone's muffled laughter by the end of class. Rouge was laughing as well, but she also was annoyed. "Sometimes that kid really pisses me off !"she said out loud only half serious. In the end she joins her classmates with a good laugh.. Finally the bell rings, and Rouge meets Bobby near his dorm room. Bobby greets her with a hug and an icy kiss on the cheek..
"So we're still on for tonight ?" he asks already knowing the answer.
"Yeah" Rouge says rather bluntly. They stand awkwardly in front of each other for what seems to be forever. Rouge starts to worried. "Please don't let him be in a bad mood tonight !" she thinks to her self. Then out of nowhere she feels someone pushing her away from Bobby.
"Excuse me people, but if your going to stare at each other in awkward silence do it somewhere else !" Rouge recognized this voice to John's. Rouge remembered that John was Bobby's roommate and she knew him as Bobby's best friend. She turned to see John's annoyed look on his face and mumbled a quick goodbye to Bobby and said that she would see him tonight. "Wow was that awkward or what !" she thought to herself. Hopefully Bobby would warm up by tonight. She looked at her watch, she only had three hours until she met up with him at the club. She walked back to her room feeling grim, but this all changed when she saw her best friend and roommate Gina walk though their Bathroom wall to greet her (you can guess her power). They hugged briefly and then Rouge spilled everything to her about Bobby. When she was done she looked at Gina for a reaction.
"Maybe you guys should call it quits for a while, take a little break !" she offered looking concerned.
"Oh no! I couldn't do that !" Rouged said almost shocked that Gina would purpose such a crazy idea. I mean she loved Bobby, and Bobby loved her, at least she thought that he did, he did love her right ?
"Don't be stupid Rouge!" she said to herself almost laughing at her crazy thoughts about Bobby. Gina was still standing there. "Come on!" Gina said with a mischievous smile on her face. She grabbed Rouge by the hand and lead her to the bathroom. "We are going to make you look extra gorgeous tonight !" Gina said excitedly. An hour later it was finally time to go. Rouge glanced at herself on the mirror, she had to admit, she looked good tonight. Her hair was straightened and the distinctive white piece was gleaming in the light. She had a lot more make-up on than usual but it still looked good, without her looking like a whore. she had on a cute forest green shirt with a jean skirt and black boots. She was ready to go, and she and Gina went down together. She spotted Bobby at their regular seat, she went over to him and gave him a kiss. He looked at her in amazement, he smiled and moved over so that he could sit next to her. Their whole group of friends were there too and they all looked in amazement, including John. A few hours of dancing, talking, and a little bit of drinking went by and then Rouge and Gina decided they wanted to leave, Rouge wanted to go find Bobby to say goodbye to him, they had parted a little over an hour ago. She found Bobby and he wasn't in his best condition, the alcohol that one of his friends had snuck in was taking affect. This really stumped Rouge because she wasn't used to seeing him drunk, let alone drinking. She went to help him up from his seat, but he pushed her away, and mumbled something. She didn't know what to do, he started making insults about her and about the way she looked and about her hair, the way he hated that stupid white stripe in it. Rouge started to cry. Why was Bobby doing this to her ?! She ran away from the crowed and out of the club. John who surprisingly wasn't drunk ran after her.
"Rouge wait up !" he said he called after her.
"What !" she yelled as she stopped abruptly.
"Listen, Bobby didn't mean what he said back there, he just hasn't been himself lately."
Rouge smiled at this, at least she wasn't the only one that had been seeing his mood swings, although she found it odd to be talking to John about this she still liked the company.
"I know he hasn't been himself, I don't know what has gotten into him lately !" she said with a sigh.
"I know." he said
"Well thank you for calming me down, I just got really mad with what Bobby said to me and all." She said
"No problem, anytime !" he said with a half laugh.
She smiled and started to walk away. Then she heard him call her.
"By the way Rouge, I don't think your ugly at all, and I like your white stripe in your hair, it makes you unique" fully meaning what he said.
"Thanks !" Rouge said back to him as her face turned red from such a sweet compliment, Bobby never complimented her anymore, even when he was sober.
She started her long walk back to her dorm and took one last glance at John, she couldn't help but think of those beautiful brown eyes, that almost looked as though they could see right through her, like they could tell all the secrets she held tightly inside her, where she hid everything. She couldn't believe she was falling for John, the class clown, the trouble maker, and the best friend of her Boyfriend of three years.
