Rogue was lying on her bed. Her bed in her room at "Xavier's school for gifted youngsters". Gifted, yeah, sure. Rogue didn't have a gift. She had a curse. Unless you call not being able to touch other human being without almost killing it a gift. She was in a very bad mood. Kitty stuck her head trough the wall and looked at Rogue. They argued in the morning and she was still upset.

"Hey, are you okay?"

"I've been betta' . Why do you act like you care?" Rogue asked sharply.

"C'mon Rogue!" Kitty looked sad and guilty. "I, like, didn't mean that. It's just that.."

"Just what Kitty? I mean not that you need a good reason to tell, hmm, let's see, the whole institute about me being a horny bitch. Just like that."

"I'm really sorry Rogue.."

"Whatever. Get out please."

"…"

She was alone again. She enjoyed the silence a while, than she wanted to get the hell out of there. But where could she go? The first thing that came trough her mind was of course Gambit. Why him , of all people? She didn't hear from him in weeks. And she missed him. And she hated that. But still, what if she tried to find him? Yeah, right , how? No phone-number, no address… Unless…No ,she couldn't go to Magneto's house. But that's where he lived before, didn't he? But Magneto was now one of the good guys…well, almost . And he wouldn't mind her stopping by…But what could she say? " Hey , is Gambit here?". Nah, it would be weird. But still…

BAMF!

"KURT WHAT THE HECK"

"Sorry sis, but Logan asked for you"

"What does he want?"

"He vanted me to check on you. Are you okay?"

"Why can't you all just leave me alone?"

"Rogue, sorry, please don't get upset vit me! I didn't mean to annoy you, just vanted to see hov are you doing. After the whole Apocalypse and Mystique thing…"

She suddenly felt sorry for him. And for herself. It wasn't his fault. He just wanted to see how she wad doing…

"Sure Kurt..Sorry 'bout that. I'm a little ..yeah know…"

"Yeah, it's okay. Vanna eat something?"

"Sure, why not."

They teleported in the kitchen where Ororo was watering the plants, Logan was drinking bear and Kitty was writing in her diary. Rogue ate an apple and drank some juice, while Kurt made a huge sandwich with all he could find in the fridge.

Warren, or Angel, entered the kitchen. He drained some milk in a large glass.

"Hey Rogue."
"Hey Angel."
"How are you doing?"
"I'm cool. You?" why was he trying to chat with her?

"I'm okay." He looked like he was expecting something. Did she have to say something?

"Well goodnight Rogue. Logan" he said looking at Wolverine. Then he left. Okay…awkward?

They all went to sleep in a while. Only Logan and Rogue where still in the kitchen. She wanted to ask him what he thought about her going to Magneto's…

"Hey Logan…"
He raised an eyebrow.

"What would you think if I..if I went to Magneto's house to..to see a friend."

"If it's not Sabertooth, I'm cool with it."

He opened a new beer. That he looked at her suspicious.

"It's about that Cajun boy, isn't it?"

She didn't say anything.

"Figured. Well take care of yourself and be back by six a.m. tomorrow, we've got training."

She smiled and hugged him than went to her room to dress up with something more…she didn't really know what she wanted to wear, and she ended with her black pair of jeans, a black shirt whit long, transparent sleeves and a really cute black butterfly near the collar. That she went to the garage. What should she take? Yeah, Logan's bike was certainly the most awesome. So she took it (ready to take the consequences when she came back, and there were going to be a lot of consequences).

She finally arrived to the house. Well, it was more like a villa. The gate opened as she approached. She figured Magneto or someone saw her somehow. She parked the bike near the huge stairs and rang the bell. The door opened. Rogue found herself in front of a huge lobby stuck with a lot of statues, pictures and other art pieces. It was kind of like the mansion but darker and clearly uglier.

"Nice to see yah, Rogue" , she heard a smooth voice with a Cajun accent. Her heart started to beat faster. Slow it baby. Calm down now…

"Hey.." , she said in the air. Where was he?

"I'm right here chere" he said and shown himself, getting out of the shadows. He was wearing his coat and a black T-shirt. She almost forgot how dazzling his eyes were, and how their unusual color made her sigh.

"Hey Gambit"

" Remy, for you, chere. Can I help you?"

" Actually , yes" , she smiled. "I just ..wanted to check on you, see how ye'r doin' "

" That's very nice chere. How' bout you an' I go somewhere to talk? I haven't seen you in a while chere…Remy missed yea"

She blushed , like she never did before.

"Sounds good to meh."

"How do you feel about Italian food?"

"Okay. Uhm I'm here with Logan's bike. Shall we take it?"
" Mais oui. Why not"

She jumped on the front and he sat right behind her, putting his arms around her waist. She trembled, in the most enjoyable way. His hands were covered with gloves so she didn't have to worry about touching. She didn't? She wished she had to…to worry about touching Remy.. mmmm …his chest is bound on my back…he is so warm..Oh my God, Rogue, slow it down. It's nothing .And most important: DO NOT TOUCH HIM... Why not?...

"Chere, you're here? "

"What?"

"I asked you if yeah know the way to my place?"
"What? We're going to your place?"
"Well, I asked you if you liked italin, and you said yes, so I wanted to cook you myself."
"You cook?" she asked surprised

"Oh I do. But if you prefer going to a restaurant.."

"No, no way. I wouldn't lose the chance to see you cooking and than taste that."

"You don't trust my cooking skills chere? Remy's hurt…"
"Well Remy should shut up and hold on tight"

"Oh, I'm planning to, chere…"

She smiled at his words, but that she realized that and shouted

"Cut it off Cajun, I'm only here 'couse I'm bored"
"Of course chere. Now let me guide you"
