Souvenirs by Yahtzee (PG)
Sorry for the multiple posts today; I've been a bad Crack Van driver so far this month, and am trying to catch up.
Fandom: X-MEN MOVIEVERSE
Pairing: Logan/Rogue
Author on LJ:

Author Website: Yahtzee's fic
Why this must be read: I love this summer story, in which Logan and Rogue have to get away from the school for a while, although neither of them's sure what they're looking for, or what they're running from. I like how Yahtzee shows us teenage Rogue trying to figure out who she wants to be as an adult, with Logan just one of the things she needs to decide how to handle. There's no sex in this one -- just summer and a motorcycle and a lot of questions about the past and the future.
Excerpt:
It is the sixth day of Rogue's summer vacation, and she is having an absolutely wonderful time.
She's on the back of Logan's motorcycle (well, Scott's really, but nobody seems to remember that anymore, except maybe for Scott) as they zoom along the highway, headed north. North means cooler weather, more comfort in the long pants and long gloves she has to wear. And after growing up in Mississippi, Rogue finds the mere fact of chilly weather in summertime novel and thrilling.
Her arms are locked around his waist. His hair whips in the wind. When he made her put on the helmet, she protested that it wasn't fair. Logan said when her skull could regenerate itself in three minutes, then she could go without too.
Rogue's power isn't the kind that protects her from much. But it doesn't matter, as long as she can lean back, relax, and let Logan steer her toward the horizon.
