"Again!" It's been a few days since I seen Bart and I'm worried about me. I hope he's not mad at me for what happened to him. "Come on Tim is that all you got?" I watch my brothers train. "Hey, what's wrong?" Cass sits next time and watches them as well. I know my father is worried about me, I can tell he wants to ask but wants me to come to him. "Alright that's enough." I get up. "I'm fine." And I walk away. Tranquillizing Bart like that was low even for them. Cass follows me out the bat cave. "Is it because the boys took Bart out with a tranquilizer?" I don't respond. "Ok, how about we leave and go to the mall since we didn't go to the amusement park." I smile nodding.

At the mall we sit at the nail bench waiting for our drinks at the cafe. "So, tell me what's been bothering you." I whimper. "Come on you can tell me, you won't hurt my feelings." I take a deep breath. "It's Bart, I think Bart hates me after being tranquilized and I'm tired of being treated like a baby. I'm 16 I want to date like other girls I want to be free I feel trapped. Bart is my only friend because every friend I had Jason and Damien scare off. I want to choose for myself!" Cass laughs. "That's it? I thought it was something bigger. Bart is off world right now and for our brothers, don't tell them what you told me cause then you would shatter their hearts. They love you Rogue and will do anything to protect you from danger." The lady calls for our name to give us our drinks. We sit back at our chair. "Yes but them being protective is too protective, I'm being suffocated and I can't tell them that cause then it will hurt their feelings but I also don't want to feel lonely." She takes a sip of her drink. "Well.. this is up to you tell them and don't feel alone or don't tell them and feel alone forever." I whine slouching in my seat. "Come on it will be like ripping off a band aid. It might hurt but at least you get it out the way quick. The boys will understand it might hurt but you need to feel free and feel independent so you can be with Bart." She teases. I blush. "It's not like that we're just friends." She laughs. "You are such a bad liar." I play with my fingers. "It doesn't matter anyway, dad won't let us be together." We begin walking around the mall. "You two are cute together, Bart is a good guy, they should know that already. Even though he's weird and always hyped, he cares about you. I can tell he wants you too." "Re-really?" She smiles patting my head. "Of course, he really cares about you a lot." We walk into a store full of music, a group of boys that I know from my school looks straight at me. "Rogue!" I back away behind Cass. "Come on Rogue, it's us from school. You know us. Who is this?" Cass rest a hand on her hip. "I'm her big sister." Those boys pick on me whenever my brothers are not around. "Who are you to my little sister?" The blonde one is Jared he picks on me the most. "We're her classmates, we heard what happened. Who knew Drew was a pervert, am I right?" Cass hum. "Right. I'm surprised, Rogue talks about her classmates but, she never mentioned anything about the three of you." He laughs. "We don't have a lot of classes which is probably why." Jared looks at me. "I guess we will see you at school." They walk passed me laughing. "You want to tell me what that was about?" I shake my head. "It's nothing important, when will Bart come back to Earth?" She thinks. "It depends, if their was a success they would be home tomorrow, if it's complicated then it varies on when they come back home." I hum. I'm so used to him popping up randomly and picking me up to take me somewhere random. "Here I know what will make you feel better, we can go to titans tower to wait for Bart, if he doesn't return at the end of the day you can stay the night there in his room." I blush nodding. "Will daddy be ok with it?" She smiles. "It will be between the two of us. Let's go!"

"Rogue it's been awhile since we seen you!" Cassie hugs me. "I'm guessing you're waiting for Bart?" I nod. "Those two are inseparable it's adorable." Cass hugs me. "Yeah, I know. He talks about you all day, how he's excited to see you, how he can't wait to see you, how shy you always are and so on and so on." The intercoms come on. "Wonder girl!" It's Bart! "Our ship seems to be down but the others are working on it hopefully we will be home in no time." Cassie nudge me to say something. "Uh...uhm.." Bart shows up on screen smiling. "Hey, you're at the tower! Are you waiting for me?" I nod smiling and slightly blushing. "Don't worry, we will be back in no time, I promise and I will sweep you off your feet like I always do." The call then hangs up. "It looks like it's going to be a while, better get comfortable." I go to his room and lay on his bed whimpering. I never been without Bart for this long before, it's weird. His sheets smell like him and it smells wonderful. I close my eyes enjoying his scent, my eyes slowly close.

I wake up feeling arms wrapped around my waist I shift in Bart's arms. "Hey gorgeous, enjoyed being in my room?" I blush burying my face in his chest. "What's wrong?" I shake my head. "Ok we don't have to talk."
