Rogue wasn't sure she had that kind of fight left in her either. She didn't want to struggle to get past her own fears and insecurities, she wanted to just be with Steve, happy and secure in her feelings for him. That comfortableness of a relationship, the thrill of being with someone who returned your affections, that's what she wanted, not the constant back and forth barrage of doubts and worries.

Cupping a hand against his cheek, she applied the lightest pressure, trying to get him to turn back to her. She needed to see those beautiful blue eyes. "We'll just have to work on the not panicking part of things," she informed him, trying to keep her tone light and succeeding at least somewhat. "Steve, sugar, I'm falling for you faster than should be humanly possible. It's absolutely nuts, but I'm willing to run with it if you are. I sure want to."
