I'm feeling happy. I've written 2 chapters so far without any interruptions. Will this chapter be as lucky? I love being an idiot in my notes. Just tell me im an idiot if I go too far… :)
Enjoy this chapter, and PLEASE review. I love having reviews, and since I've been so nice to post 3 chapters, the least ya'll could do is to review and tell me how much I've turned around the bad story that this had accidentally lapsed into (or you could tell me the opposite, it is your opinion, after all.) All reviews are welcomed and help to keep me going. It shows me that I have support, which I need to get through the last 2 months of school, and what I want to be an exciting career in writing ahead of me.

Callie lounged on the ugly flowered couch as Jean and Rogue stood facing one another in their usual manner: Rogue as tense as it was possible for her to be, and Jean trying to make her feel as relaxed as possible.
"You understand that the faster you get this, the faster you get to leave this place?" Jean asked Rogue. Callie didn't know whether she wanted Rogue to finish quickly or to drag this out as long as possible. Rogue nodded in answer, obviously going for the non-verbal approach that would make it easier for her not to be sick. "Rogue, I know that you do not like the destructiveness of your power, but whatever happens, you have to know that it is a part of who you are, and you're going to have to use that side of your power sometime, but I'm going to show you something else that your power can do." Rogue nodded again before Jean continued. "You have to understand that before you learnt to control your power, it just worked immediately in response to someone else's energy being so close to your own. Since you could never draw any energy away from me, it forced you to be able to control it. Can you control it without thinking now?" Rogue couldn't just nod in response to this question. She hesitated before answering.
"I… I think so."
"Lets hope you can, because you're going to have to use all of your concentration on this part of your power if you want it to work, and not worry about whether you're going to hurt someone or not." Rogue nodded again.
"Will she be able to do this without thinking at some point?" Callie asked from her position sprawled out upon the chair.
"In time." Jean answered quietly.
"So what am I supposed to do?"
Jean held out her hands to Rogue to take, and looked into her eyes.
"Keep your eyes open this time, and try to feel my power. It helps if you look into my eyes, because you'll be able to find it better. You have to see exactly what it can do, where it hides from the world, what is attached to it…"
"Yeah." Rogue prompted distantly, like she was a million miles away. Jean took a deep breath.
"Use it." She said hastily, gripping Rogue's hands tightly so that she couldn't let go. "You can see and feel my power, so focus on one aspect of it and use it."

"You okay?" Callie had to ask the question of Rogue, even though it was quite obvious by how Rogue was lying on her bed, staring at the ceiling and not moving, that she was really not okay with what had just happened.
"I have always been able to suck out another mutant's power and use it, but this is different. I could…" After sitting for so long in silence, Callie was surprised that Rogue was willing to divulge so much about what it was that she was feeling. Callie didn't mind when she trailed off, and didn't push for clarification of what she was talking about. Rogue just lay on the bed in silence and narrowed her eyes at it, as if trying to find a specific point on the completely white ceiling. "A mutant's powers are attached to their emotions. I should have known that from Logan, but…" He voice was barely a whisper, but because of the silence of the room, Callie had no trouble hearing her. "I didn't remember, and I don't think that Jean even realised that when I…" Callie wasn't bothered about Rogue's frequent pauses in the conversation. She could probably fill in the gaps by herself. She had watched as Rogue had reluctantly used Jean's telepathy to float a pencil in the air, and then she had quickly pulled her hands out of Jean's tight grip as violently as she could. She had stared at Jean meaningfully, almost pleading with her that she wouldn't make Rogue do it again, and it was as if there was a connection between the two still, that something had not left Rogue when she had pulled herself away from Jean. Callie had suddenly sat up, wondering what was going on in the room, and she was still wondering as Rogue turned to flee from the room and Jean stayed frozen to the spot, an unreadable expression upon her face. Callie followed Rogue, feeling very confused, and Rogue had let her, as she had left the door to her room open for Callie to enter behind her.
"She did look a little bewildered." Callie admitted. She looked towards the closed door. "Do you think that Jean is still standing in the middle of the room?"
"I just hope she doesn't expect me to do that again."
"I think you should." Callie told her. "You're going to have to deal with your power sooner or later, anyway." Rogue finally turned her head to look at Callie for the first time sine before she had had the lesson with Jean.
"What?" She asked. "Are YOU going to offer your powers and emotions for me to look at? Are you going to show me into your mind?"
"Yes." Callie said simply as she moved from the floor onto the bed next to Rogue. Rogue was obviously stunned at such an abrupt answer to a request she thought Callie was going to refuse. She sat up to look at Callie more clearly.
"You believe in my power that much?"
"Yes." Callie repeated. Rogue sighed and looked towards the door.
"Should we go and find Jean, then?" Callie just looked into Rogue's eyes. She knew what answer Callie was going to give and so she just stood up and inched hesitantly towards the door.
