Chapter 7: Don't pick up…

The next morning, Rogue sat in the office of Professor Xavier. He was helping her to control her power. She had to think her power to the end of her mind. For now, it was difficult and energy taking but when the lesson was over, she could control her power a little bit.

She walked back to her room to rest. Her ribs weren't healed completely but they were getting better. She had been using her salve for two days and it was helping, small bits at the time. Once again, she got a call from Vincent but chose to ignore it again.

To avoid suspicion, she had told him that she was sick and wasn't allowed to go outside. Logan was very protective over her and made sure that whenever Vincent would stand at the door, he wouldn't enter.

She started her CD player and the song "Whisper" from Evanescence played. She went to the bathroom, took of her clothes except for the dog tag that Logan had given her.

"I need to give that back then when I see him next time." She thought.

She stepped into the shower, under the warm water. She washed her hair, wrapped a towel around her and got out some underwear. She putted her nightgown on and dried her hair. When her hair was dry, she putted her hair in a high ponytail, leaving the two bangs of white hair out of it.

She walked to the common room of the house, where they all gathered every evening to talk and to play. She walked over to Logan and he hugged her carefully, making sure he didn't hurt her.

"How are you doing Logan?" Rogue asked

"Fine, you?"

"Alright…"

"Has he called you today?" Logan asked

"Yeah, but I didn't pick up."

"Good girl."

"Logan.' Rogue rolled with her eyes at his answer.

Logan laughed as she began to laugh too.

"Do you have a date for the prom already kid?"

"I'm going with Vincent."

"Alright, I'll keep an eye on you, just to be safe."

"Thanks" Rogue said. "Btw, I still have your dog tag."

Rogue gave the necklace with the dog tag on it back to Logan. He looked at it first and smiled back at Rogue. He took the necklace and hung it around her neck.

"Keep it." Logan said

"But it's yours."

"It's yours now."

"Thanks Logan." Rogue smiled

She gave him a quick kiss on his cheek and hugged him; he smiled and hugged her back. They walked back to their bedroom together, told each other a good night and went to sleep.
