Okay, people, here's part two. Thanks for reviewing!

By the way, it will remain K+ or lower from here on in.

Summary: This is the second part, or chapter, of A Romeo And Juliet story. We're continuing where we left off.

Disclaimer: I am very sorry to say that I do not own Marvel, X-men, or any of it's ideas. Drat, why couldn't I be the genius who thought of it before me. Technically before I was born. Oh, well.

Without further ado, Part Two Of- A Romeo And Juliet Story.

Well, at least I tried, Rogue thought as she walked back to her room, it could've been worse. She'd just asked Logan if she could have guard duty for John sometime, and he'd been, well, amused. He'd pretty much laughed, told her, 'nice try, but you won't get the chance to set your boyfriend free' and sent her away. She'd have to think of something else, and did.

John woke up and decided to figure out, in the most annoying way possible, who was on guard duty. So he started singing Seether loudly, and soon found out. Kitty's annoyed voice came back to him, "John, cut that out, please! You know I hate that band! You could at least sing something good, like, The Backstreet Boys, or something." He laughed at her, almost glad it was Kitty. "The Backstreet Boys? Oh, come on, Kitten, you don't actually listen to that junk, do you?"

"It is not junk! Plus," She added slyly, "Rogue likes them too."

"So what? Girls like boybands. That does not mean that they're not junk. After all, it's probably a proven fact that girls buy more junk than guys." Kitty sighed, knowing she was beaten. "Fine, John," She snapped, "But you still can't sing Seether!" She started to sing I want it that way.

You are my fire
The one, desire.
Believe, when I say
I want it that way.

But we are, two worlds apart
Can't reach, to your heart
When you say,
That I want it that way.

John's ears perked up, and he listened intently to the words, and as Kitty started the 'You are, my fire…' part again, he stopped her.

"Hey, Kitten, I just thought of something. Can you do something for me?"

"As long as it doesn't entail me letting you out."

"No, it doesn't; I just need you to do something for me…" He told her what he wanted.

"Fine, fine, I'll play along," Kitty grumbled, "After I get off my shift, and I'm only doing this because Rogue likes you, not because I do."

Pyro grinned and leaned back against the wall. He knew that Kitty couldn't deceive herself for long, and that she'd do exactly as he asked.

Rogue slipped back into her room. She'd been downstairs, watching a movie, regardless of, or perhaps because of, Logan telling her that movies were strictly forbidden. Somehow him giving her more 'no-no's' made her disobey more. She sighed dejectedly. That was probably the Pyro psyche awaking from slumber in the back of her mind.

She plunked down on her bed and heard something crunch gently as she sat. Hoping she hadn't broken anything, she drew whatever it was out from under her. She squinted at it in the dull light, and switched on her lamp. It was a copy of a Backstreet Boys Millennium CD. On it was written-Hey, Rogue, I know you love this band. From now on, think of this as our special song. Love, JohnPyro-In John's pleasantly hurried handwriting. She smiled and popped it into her CD player.

You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way.

But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

Chorus
Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
(Tell me why)
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way.

Am I your fire
Your one desire
Guess I know it's too late
But I want it that way

Chorus

Now I can see that we've fallen apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know that
Deep down inside of me.

You are my fire
The one desire
(You are, you are, you are, you are)
Don't wanna hear you say, hey
Ain't nothin' but a heartache (hey, heh, yeah)
Ain't nothin' but a mistake (don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say (oh yeah)
I want it that way

Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
(Tell me why)
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I want it that way
Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say
(hear you say, yeah) I want it that way
'Cause I want it that way.

Their special song. Pyro-and-Rogue. Not just Pyro, not just lonely Rogue, Pyro-and-Rogue. She smiled, she liked the thought of that. No matter what Logan says, she thought fiercely, John and I will always be together. Even if he does be stupid and go join the Brotherhood again. If he ever gets the chance, She thought bitterly. He'll probably be locked in that dungeon for the rest of his life. Poor John; maybe on Warren's watch I'll go visit. Warren's smart, he just goes in the other room and reads on his shift.

Kitty woke to a gentle tap on her shoulder. Startled, she looked up. Warren stood over her, an amused expression on his face.

"What?" She asked grumpily.

"We're not supposed to sleep on guard duty, you know." He informed her mock-seriously.

"Yeah, and we're not supposed to go and read while we're on guard duty, either," She retorted. "This whole thing is just dumb, Warren. You know that as well as I do. Why can't they just let John back in? I'll tell you why," She continued, barely pausing for breath, "Because they want to make us suffer and have to waste our time guarding him, because we weren't good enough friends to make him stay here. It's just stupid, Warren," She informed him again.

"I know that, Kat, don't jump down my throat. I'm hatching a scheme with Pete. I would normally let Bobby help, but I don't think he'd agree with the plan. But anyway, I'm here to relieve you. I'll tell you if our plan works out, and we'll let you help us. Now go sleep, Kat." He pushed her toward the door and took the seat that she'd been sitting in. She sleepily obeyed, stumbling wearily toward the upper stories and sleep.

Warren watched her go, took one look at the sleeping prisoner, and left for the room off the dungeons, pulling a book out of his pocket as he left.

John heard Kitty and Warren's conversation, heard Kitty go upstairs, and then, finally, he heard Warren leave to the other room. He sat up and examined first the hairpins he'd taken from Kitty's hair when she leaned too close as she slept, and then the lock on the door. He grinned slyly. Perfect.

Rogue returned from dinner very depressed. Everyone at the table except Bobby seemed to be plotting something, and they wouldn't let her know what it was. She slipped into her room, turning on the lights as she did so. She let out a gasp of surprise. John, who she'd thought was locked in a dungeon, was sitting calmly in the chair at her desk.

"Hey," he said, grinning, "About time you got here. I've been waiting for ages."

A/N: I just had to use the Backstreet Boys in this story. I love that band, and that is my favorite song. Also, don't you love the cliff-face ending? Hee, Hee. I am going to hold you in suspense for ages. If you like it, you'd better tell me, 'cause I won't post more if you don't review. Here's the lyrics to I Want It That Want It That Way:

I Want It That Way
(Max Martin/Andreas Carlsson)You are my fire

The one desire

Believe when I say I want it that way.

But we are two worlds apart

Can't reach to your heart

When you say

That I want it that way

Chorus

Tell me why (Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
(Tell me why)
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way.

Am I your fire
Your one desire
Guess I know it's too late
But I want it that way

Chorus

Now I can see that we've fallen apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know that
Deep down inside of me.

You are my fire
The one desire
(You are, you are, you are, you are)
Don't wanna hear you say, hey
Ain't nothin' but a heartache (hey, heh, yeah)
Ain't nothin' but a mistake (don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say (oh yeah)
I want it that way

Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
(Tell me why)
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I want it that way
Tell me why
(Ain't nothin' but a heartache)
(Ain't nothin' but a mistake)
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say
(hear you say, yeah) I want it that way
'Cause I want it that way
