Chapter 8 The prom
A/N: The dress that Rogue is wearing if from Star wars. It is one of the dresses that Padmé wears in the second movie when they are on Tatooine. Her hairstyle is also from Star Wars, but that is from the part at Naboo. Anyone who wants to see the picture put it in the review…or you can send me a message.
I tried to describe the dress and the hairstyle the best I could…Thanks for reading the story and enjoy!
The prom night arrived. Rogue was waiting at the beginning of the stairs outside for Vincent to show up. Silently she hoped he would certainly be wearing a tux. She herself had pinned up her hair a little, with the rest hanging loose around her. The hair that hanged loose was in soft curls.
Her dress was in two parts. The top made sure her stomach came out a little but the sleeves were long in the back and a little shorter at the front. The lowest part of the dress was a long skirt. It came until the ground and was tided up in the middle.
The fabric of the dress was light and comfortable to wear. The colour had a soft colour of baby blue. Rogue didn't have much make up on her face; only her mascara and her soft coloured lip-gloss could be seen.
Vincent arrived, he didn't wear his tux. He was dressed in his casual clothes. A baggy jeans and a loose sweater over it. His hair came a little above his shoulder, just under his chin.
Rogue sighed; she knew he wouldn't wear a tux, even if she asked him too.
"You were supposed to be wearing a tux." Rogue said
"Suppose I didn't want to. Besides, you're beautiful enough for the both of us."
"You still needed to wear a tux though."
"Why do I even bother to come to this stupid prom?" Vincent asked
"Because you promised me, because you love me!"
"Well suppose I don't!"
"You don't mean that!" Rogue yelled
"Wanna bet!"
Tears filled Rogue's eyes. She slapped him extra hard on his cheek and kicked him in his manhood before she turned around mad. Her high heels making a soft sound on the steps."
"If you don't want to be here…then leave…"
"Why should I?"
"If you want to live…don't come near me again."
"You can't tell me what to do!" Vincent yelled
"No, but I can kill you if I want to…"
"Like you would, you love me too much."
"Well suppose I don't"
"Yeah, like you would lie." Vincent snorted
"Wanna bet!"
Rogue walked up the stairs, leaving Vincent alone standing downstairs. She walked across the hall but stopped in front of the mirror to make sure her make up was good. She didn't want Logan to find out that she cried.
She smiled; the thought of Logan could always make her smile. She had tucked the dog tag he had given her away. She walked in the ballroom where the others were already stood dancing, talking and drinking.
She smiled and walked to her friends to talk. Before she reached them, Logan walked up to her and smiled. She looked in his eyes and smiled back.
"Would you like to dance Marie?"
"Sure."
They walked to the dance floor and just when they reached it, a slow song came up.
Oh I do believe
In all the things you see
What comes is better
Than what came before
Logan smiled at her; she looked up at him and smiled back. He reached for her ear and whispered in it.
"I thought you would come with Vincent?"
"Yeah, well, he wasn't wearing a tux and when he got here he began to yell again."
"What did you do?"
"I slapped him and kicked him."
"That's good, is it?"
"Yeah…"
And you better come come
Come come to me
Better come come come
Come come to me
Better run run run
Run run to me
Better come
"He got what he deserved, treating you like that." Logan said.
"Yeah, I didn't love him anyway."
"Why were you dating him then."
"I don't know, I guess I thought I would fall in love with him after a long time."
Oh I do believe
In all the things you see
What comes is better
Than what came before
"That didn't work did it?"
"No it didn't. Because I loved somebody else."
"Who?"
"I'm not going to tell you…yet."
And you better
Run run run run to me
Better run run run
Run to me
Better come come come
Come come to me
Better run
The song ended and they smiled at each other. They walked to get a glass of punch. Marie was held up however. Before her stood Vincent, looking at her with his eyes yellow and red from the anger.
She looked at him scared. She ran out the other way, trying to get away from him. She ran to the balcony. He followed her.
"I told you to leave."
"Are you afraid of me?"
"No."
"Then why do you run away from me?" Vincent asked
"I didn't want to make a scene in the ball room."
"Don't think I didn't see you with that Logan guy. You seemed to have a great time."
"Were friends, best friends, he treats me good unlike you!" Rogue said
"I treat you good! You only can't see it!"
"Are you blind? You've broken my ribs! You gave me a couple of bruises…you've hurt me!"
"You only think that!"
Rogue looked like she could kill but Vincent didn't seem to notice. His eyes were coloured red and yellow from the anger that flowed inside of him. She was angry too, but still she felt pity for him.
"I don't want to talk to you now! We can talk further tomorrow, but for now I want you to leave…immediately!"
"Sure, I don't want to be here anyway."
"Then why are you here?" Rogue asked
"You wanted me too."
"At first yes, but after your outburst at the entrance I didn't want it anymore!"
Vincent looked angry but leaved it with that, he left the balcony, leaving Rogue to stand-alone. She watched at the moon shining in the small pound under the balcony, she smiled. She had always loved the moon.
