ROGUE WAS SILENT.

She couldn't muster a word after the words that left the Topsider's mouth.

"You know Viktor?" Rogue finally spoke as she slipped the knife back into its sheath, she settled her hands on the table, leaning forward.

"I do..." The pretty boy nods, "I'm Jayce Talis," he puts out his hand.

She looks at it with a distrusting look, "Viktor hasn't talked to me in over a year," she told him, "how can I be certain that this isn't a trap?"

"Well... You can't be exactly certain, no, but you can trust that Viktor still has so much care for you," her face contorts hearing this, "he talks about you quite often."

"Who are you to him?" She questions.

"You ask a lot of questions," Jayce comments quietly, "I am his partner. We're working on a project together... Which brought me here," she tilts her head, "he mentioned that you knew a lot about inventing."

"I know... Some about it, yeah..." Rogue crossed her arms, "my dad was one... What does it matter? I haven't been in this business for a long time."

"What do you do down here then?" Jayce looks around making her roll her eyes.

She snaps her fingers in his face gaining his attention, "you want to belong. Act like you do. Don't stare," she groans, "I can't believe Viktor dragged me into this..."

"Well... Technically he didn't," Jayce laughs nervously.

Rogue gave him a look, "what does that mean?"

"I came here on my own accord," Jayce said, "I know how it sounds but—"

"It sounds like an idiotic Piltie move," Rogue laughs unable to believe that this was happening without Viktor even asking. He doesn't want to see her, no, if he did he would have reached out.

Guess it was her fault from over a year ago when she hurt him with her words...

"Listen, do you want to change the world or not?" Jayce leans forward.

Rogue gave him a look, "not without Viktor wanting me to be there. I won't intrude after what I did."

Jayce raised an eyebrow, "what you did... What did you do?"

"So he talks about me but not about the last time we saw eachother, huh?" She looks down.

"He's mentioned it once since our short partnership so far—"

"Hold up," she put up a hand, "did you just say... Short partnership?" She was getting irritated.

"Well, I mean," Jayce laughs nervously stuttering over his words, "we've been working together for only two days but—"

"I swear to fucking god," she groans pinching the bridge of her nose.

He threw up his hands, "listen, I was just trying to make him happy, he saved my life," she looked at him, Deja vu hitting her at that, "he's always smiling when he talks about you until I asked what happened... He got sad and he's been distant. I just want to make him smile again and I think— No, I know you can do that."
