The Homecoming
Part 3 of 10
Rogue
She headed out side to watch the sunrise and was surprised to find Scott standing there. “Didn’t think anyone else would be up this early?” She still wasn’t sure what to make of Cyclops since his return he was different and being here with those strange new brothers of his and Havok’s didn’t help matters.
“I don’t sleep well when I’m here, Gabriel makes me nervous there’s something off about him.” Scott said with a tired voice. “I don’t know if it is because of Xavier’s betrayal or what the Shiar did to him before he got here.” He then snorted. “Or maybe it is because my crew took his powers away.”
“I wasn’t going to say anything but I agree with you.” She didn’t feel safe around Gabriel and she was actually glad he didn’t have his powers. She got the impression based on how he talked about them that if he still had them they’d all be in danger. “So are you going to be heading back to the Mansion any time soon?”
“Probably tomorrow after you and Alex get married.” He said glancing back at her. “I have to admit I wouldn’t have pictured the two of you together.” She and Alex had always planned to invite him to the Justice of the Peace to get married while he was on Earth but doing it in Alaska hadn’t been in the plans.
“Before both of my personalities got merged Alex probably wouldn’t have been my type.” She admitted honestly. “He wasn’t really either Rogue or Carol’s type but he is mine.” She still didn’t fully understand how the two of them had been fit together to make her but she’d learned to just accept it. “I am looking forward to being married and starting a family though it seems I’m marrying into a larger family than I thought.” He actually laughed at that. “Do you have anyone out there waiting for you?”
“No, it ended the day my brother killed our friends.” Scott said sounding a bit depressed but then he shrugged. “It does delay the whole awkward coming out as bisexual ordeal though.” Scott said with a smirk. She was staring at him. “I mean I still have to get around to telling Alex and Dad but I think I can leave my grand parents in the dark for a while longer.”
“You were involved with a guy?” She would have never expected this if you’d asked her which of the X-men would come out as bi she would have never picked Scott Summers. “No offense but I always thought you were the straightest of the straight arrows.”
“Yeah, after Jean’s death and leaving my dad’s ship I avoided women and spent most of my time hanging out with my very male first mate and eventually things happened.” Scott said with a shrug. “Then I got busy trying to solve the mystery of my altered memories so there wasn’t really a chance to tell my dad or anyone else.”
“Why start with me?” She asked honestly a bit surprised that he’d told her. “I would have thought you’d tell Alex first?” He just shrugged in response which again was an unusual action to see form the man who had always seemed to have a gaint stick up his ass. “Being away from the X-men was good for you wasn’t it?”
“Yeah, it was.” Scott said as he pulled his glasses off and looked back out opening his eyes. “A lot has changed but I still love the sunrise here in Alaska.” She didn’t bother to ask why his eyes weren’t shooting a blast out into the sky. She was just glad he trusted her. “Welcome to the family Rogue.”
“Thanks Scott,” She said still unsure about the other two brothers but she could easily see Scott Summers moving from former leader of the X-men to good friend and family. “Just promise me you’ll let me be in the room when you tell Alex about being bi I want to see his face because all his stories about you painted you as incredibly vanilla Scott.”
“Sure I could use the support,” Scott said. “Cause I’m going to tell my dad at the same time and I don’t know how he’ll react given his own relationship with an alien he shouldn’t talk but who knows.” She could tell he was really worried about telling his father but not his brother. She knew that Alex would be supportive but she could tell he was scared of telling Corsair.
