Disclaimer: I do not own anything, I wish I did, but I dunt. Maybe in the next lifetime though.
X-Mansion-Living Room
"I don't know, I think I would like yellow flowers instead." Scott teased Jean, who shook her head and slapped him on the arm playfully.
"No, I don't want yellow flowers. I want the flowers to be more colorful and not dull looking." Jean told him as she flipped to the next page of the binder in front of them. It had been two weeks since they had arrived home from Paris where Scott had proposed to Jean on the Eiffel Tower.
"We also need a band. Can I please be in charge of at least this?" Scott asked her.
"I guess, but I must approve of what band you chose before we make any arrangements. Got it?" Jean looked at him.
"Alright, alright." Scott chuckled to himself. For once in his life, he was happy. Their classes had all returned to normal, no evil villains trying to take control over the world, it was just peaceful. 'I hope it lasts.' Scott thought to himself as he admired the red-haired beauty next to him.
'If it does, it does. If it doesn't, then we will have to fight until it is peaceful again. As long as you're by my side, my world is peaceful.' Jean sent to himself telepathically.
Scott smiled at her and kissed her on the lips. 'As long as you are by my side and safe that is all that matters to me.' He sent back to her.
Rec. Room
Rogue frowned at Remy. "Ah swear, ya are cheatin'. Logan taught meh how ta play pool and he is very good at it. There is no way ya are this lucky." The southern girl told the Cajun as he shot another ball into the pocket of the pool table.
"Dat because y' had a bad teacher. Mebbe sometime ol' Remy should reteach y' de right way." He winked at her.
"Very funny, swamp rat." She said back to him. They had played five games and all of them she had lost. This was supposed to be their last game and the winner decides something the loser could do.
"Don' worry, chere. Gambit'll take y' somewhere nice when he wins." Remy grinned at her.
"That is if he wins." Rogue shot back at him and sat on the pool table. She gave him an innocent smile.
"Now y' de one dat is cheatin'." He stated and placed the pool stick down and walked around the table to her.
"Whatcha goin' ta do about it, sugah?" She asked. He gave her an evil grin before he started to tickle her. Rogue laughed and fell back onto the table. "Stop." Rogue laughed.
"Say dat Gambit wins and he'll let y' up." Remy grinned down at her.
"Fine, fine. Ya win. Now let meh up." She continued laughing, even after he stopped tickling her. Remy held out a hand to help her up and she took it. "So where are we goin'?" She asked him.
Remy only grinned at her. "Dat, mon chere, is a secret." He told her. Rogue rested a hand on her hip.
"Come on, tell meh." She batted her eyes at him. "Or mebbe just a hint." Rogue asked nicely.
Remy chuckled. "Nope, cause den it would ruin de surprise. Y'll have to wait." He told her and wrapped his arms around her waist to bring her closer to him. "Believe moi. It'll be worth it." He whispered in her ear, sending shivers down her body.
Upper Level
Bobby threw a ball at the wall and waited for it to come back so he could catch it. At the moment, his life sucked. Rogue had dumped him for Remy. Well, not really for that reason. He had kind of asked Kitty out and had hoped Rogue wouldn't find out.
'Why did I have to screw that up?' He thought to himself. He threw the ball at the wall again, but this time someone caught it. Bobby looked over to find a green haired girl with green eyes holding the ball he was throwing.
"Lose something?" She asked him.
"Yeah, I lost my girlfriend a few weeks ago over something stupid." He answered her. The girl frowned and sat down next to Bobby.
"Sorry to hear that." She said as she handed the ball back to him.
"Thanks." He told her and tucked the ball placed the ball on the opposite side of him. "You're the new girl, right?" Bobby asked.
"Yeah, my name is Lorna Dane. I just arrived here yesterday." Lorna replied. She folded her arms over her chest and looked down at the ground.
"What brings you here? Problems with your powers?" Bobby asked her curiously. He took a quick glance at her and was about to turn back, when he realized he couldn't. 'Wow. She's beautiful.' He thought to himself.
"No, I have control over my powers. It's just some family issues. My brother and sister went to hunt down our dad. I didn't want to go so I found this place and decided to stay until I heard from them again." Lorna answered.
"Is your dad that bad?" He asked her.
"Oh, yes he is." She answered darkly.
Logan's Bedroom
Logan paced back and forth in his room. He had the same nightmare again. 'What am I gonna do? If I tell her, she will think I'm out to kill her and everyone else.' He thought before finally stopping in front of his bed and sat down.
A sudden knock at the door shook him away from his thoughts. "Logan? Are you busy?" A female voice asked. He looked over at the door and saw the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on. She had dark skin with long white hair. Her eyes were blue like the day's sky and was the perfect height. She truly was a goddess in his eyes.
"Not fer you, darlin'." Logan grinned at Ororo. She smiled back at him and took a seat next to him on the bed.
"Is there something on your mind? You missed breakfast this morning." She stated.
"Sorry, have had a lot on my mind." Logan answered and avoided eye contact with her. He desperately wanted to tell her about his nightmares more than anyone, but was afraid of her reaction.
"Do you want to share? I will always listen to anything you say." Ororo told him. He finally looked over and smiled again at her. He took her hand in his and squeezed it lightly.
"Nah, it's alright. Thanks anyways." Logan answered and leaned over to kiss her.
'What is it you are hiding?' Storm thought to herself as she kissed Logan back.
A blonde haired woman flung the double wooden doors open to her home and marched inside. A few maids that were cleaning looked over at her as she past by them.
"Miss. Frost. It is so nice to have you back." A maid with black hair greeted her.
"Get out of my way!" Emma Frost shouted at the woman and threw her white coat at her. "Be useful and hang this up!" She ordered.
"Yes, madam." The maid nodded.
Emma continued down a fancy hallway and into the dining area. There was a group of people seated around the long marble table. A man with dark hair pulled in a pony tail stood up to greet her. The woman beside him with black hair and a black dress stood up next to him.
"Why look who is back. I believe the White Queen or has she decided to leave us once again?" The woman taunted Emma.
"I am still part of the Hellfire Club, Selene." Emma growled at the woman. "I have a request to ask of all of you." She said as she took a seat next to a man with blond hair.
"Why should we do anything for you after you left, luv?" A woman with purple hair asked.
"Because there might be something in it for all of you." Emma replied.
"So tell us, what it is." Sebastian Shaw asked as he finally took a seat.
"As you all know, I took a trip to Paris. I met up with a man named Eric Lehnsherr, or as some of you know him: Magneto." Emma began to tell when Selene interrupted her.
"How sweet, you finally found love." The Black Queen laughed.
"Selene, let her talk for now." Shaw ordered her. Selene sighed but kept quiet.
"As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted. I met up with Magneto. He asked me if I could spy on a group of mutants called the X-Men." Emma said, not noticing the flinch in the blond man and purple haired woman next to her. "I played my part perfectly. There was one man there that peeked my interest. His name is Scott Summers. Unfortunately, the fool was in love with this trashy red-haired woman." She rolled her eyes.
"Anyways, those idiots the X-Men ruined Magneto's plans and made me look like a fool. I had never been so insulted in all my life. They must pay." Emma vowed.
"What do you think, Black King? Though Emma always seemed a bit." Selene thought for a moment before speaking again. "How can I say this in a nice way?" She asked with a mock smile on her face.
"If you can't, then don't speak. Emma has been loyal to the Hellfire Club for years. Not to mention, we can not let this be known. The X-Men will pay for what they have done to you, my dear White Queen." Shaw told Emma. "Tessa!" He called to. A woman entered the room with black hair tied up.
"Yes, sir?" She asked.
"Find as much as you can about the X-Men and report it back to us. We just know all their strengths and weaknesses." Shaw ordered to her.
"It'll be in my the end of the week." Sage told him before she bowed and left the room.
"Thank you." The White Queen smiled pleasantly.
"If you will excuse me." The purple haired woman said as she pulled her seat out and got up. She tapped the blond man's shoulder before she left. Seconds later, he also got up and followed her out.
"What's wrong, Betsy?" He asked.
"Warren, do you think we should warn them? I mean they were our-" Betsy tried to say, but Warren cut her off.
"-friends. But not anymore. Let them deal with it." Warren told her and turned to leave her side.
Betsy sighed and shook her head as she watched the love of her life leave. 'When are you ever going to forgive them?' She thought to herself before following after him.
End of Chapter 1
Note: Sorry this chapter was so short. I will try to make the next one longer. :) Also I did some research and found that Warren and Betsy are part of the Hellfire Club's London branch part thingy. So, I kinda changed it so they are in New York's one.
