He'd kind of just gone for a walk and his feet had carried him here. A familiar face seemed a nice enough sight and he offered Rogue a soft smile.

"Hey," he ventured quietly, "Hiding out?"

She laughed quietly after getting over her initial startled reaction, and she shook her head slightly. "Not .. hiding," she said. "Just...walkin' around where people aren't likely to run across me."

"No, hidin' would be if I was somewhere that no one could find me at all. Like, if I stayed locked up in my room or somethin'." But then, there were some people that she simply couldn't hide from, regardless - wherever she'd gone, she knew Logan would have been able to track her down.

And part of her had half-hoped he would, but maybe he was being considerate and letting her hide.

"So," she ventured bravely. "Were ... did you and John go watch ..." she gestured vaguely with one gloved hand. "Last night?"
