Everyone was well aware of Rogue's abilities, so they always steer clear of getting too close to her. She had friends, sure, but anything more could be disastrous and everyone knew it. Including her. She hates that she can't get close to people, but the most painful thing to her is that it's become normal to her. She would eat alone when it was time for dinner, she would sit alone to silently read, she would even train alone. That is, until you have come into her life.

You showed her that she never had to be alone again. Whenever it was time for dinner, you sat with her, ate, and talked about your day, you would sit with her quietly while she read her book, and you would go and train with her whenever you got the chance. Rogue never knew why you decided to be around her, but she wasn't going to complain. She had someone who cared about her. She grew to like your company so much, that she fell in love.

As you guys were joking and laughing about your day, curled up on her bed while flipping through the photos that you guys have taken together over time, she looked at you with an adoring gaze just hoping that when you look at her, you'd have the same gaze. As you both locked eyes, neither of your gazes strayed away from each other's lips and you both started to lean in before Rogue, who was only a centimeter away from you lips, yanked herself away with a gloved hand quickly cover her lips.

"No. No, we can't." She says with her hand gently starting to shake as she looks around rapidly, like she just made a huge mistake even if nothing happened. "I won't. I won't hurt you." She says barely above a whisper as her eyes finally lift to lock back with yours and tears laced over her bright green irises.

She wanted nothing more than this kiss, but the thought of hurting you... No. No, she would never allow that.
