There were places of surreal beauty, Kitty suspected. Places were everything was perfectly real and razor edge, yet completely foggy.

Kitty suspected that if there was a heaven it must be a rave. You could be anyone in those crowds, and the guy next to you, he could be anyone too. And together you two could be anything. That's how Kitty met Lance. One of those beautiful accidents. Kitty had stumbled into somewhere she didn't belong. But it turned out in the heart of this beast, in this pulsing crowd was where she belonged. Everyone belonged here.

And Kitty was pretty sure heaven tasted like Lance's lips.

The D.J. switched to a faster record. "Whoo!" The blonde next to Kitty screamed., "I love this song!" Tabitha Smith crashed against her boyfriend, her hips gyrating against his body.

"I think I love this song too!" Kurt's heavy accent cut threw the crowd. Kurt ran his thick fingers through Tabitha's hair, and kissed her.

Kitty grinned and spun up against Lance, "How's it going, Rock star?" The attraction between the two had been immediate. Lance was unlike anyone Kitty had ever dated before. Somewhere caught in 90's grunge, with ripped jeans, and messy hair, and knowing all the words to every Nirvana song. A far cry from the boring nobodies Kitty used to know.

Lance pressed against her back, as Kitty tried to merge herself with the flashing lights, and the beat and Lance's cologne.

John lunged trapping her against the wall. Amara was sure John's tongue must be a part of her by now. Something so complete and so natural it had to be a whole. She'd known the rumors about John, but he had a certain half crazy way.

John's hands couldn't work fast enough at her buttons. He couldn't kiss her fiercely enough. He couldn't press enough of her skin to hers. She wanted all of him in side her, were she could keep him. And he'd grow inside of her. And breath in and suck in and scream.

Rogue closed her eyes and tried to loose herself in the music. Find herself. Whatever. Something the novels would be proud of.

"Why hello there."

Rogue looked up. Standing to the left of her was a man. He exhaled, smoke pluming around his head like a dusty crown. Rogue blinked not believing he was talking to her.

"What's a pretty little thing like you doing all by your lonesome?" He took another drag on his cigarette. "The name's Remy LeBeau, but my friends call me Gambit."

"Marie, but you can call me Rogue."

Gambit smiled, "Bayou Country."

Rogue blushed, "Sounds like you're a long was from home too."

"Yeah. Yeah I am." He taped the smoldering cigarette, "I'll be seeing you again then, cherie?"

Rogue blanched a feat not usually possible, "Why wait, huh? I ain't doing nothing, you ain't busy..." How painfully needy. Rogue cringed.

Gambit smiled though and lifted Rogue's chin, "I got a job first, Miss Rogue, but when all's settled I'll be back, cherie, you just wait for ol' Gambit." He pressed his lips to Rouge's. After a moment he turned and walked away. Rogue tasted smoke, and the beat slowed.

Liquor on his breath. Tabby can almost taste what he's had. She smiled and thought of Oktoberfest.

Kurt jumped back, "You're bleeding!"

Tabby's hand reached up to her nose. Red droplets. The blonde laughed and clamped her nose shut, "Someone must have bumped me."

Kurt knew he shouldn't believe this. He swallowed it with a sip of beer.

Suddenly, Tabby's burning, "Where's Amara?"

"With John." He looked for something to blot Tabby's nose with.

How much money did she have? How much money did Kurt have? "Hey, Blue..."

Kurt knew this voice, "I don't have any money, Tabitha. I'm broke just like you." He shook the bottle, "All I've got to my name."

Tabby pressed against him, "That's not all you've got, Blue." She massaged the bottle from his sweated pal. Liquor in her hand calmed her. Liquor in her hand calmed her. Liquor in her throat burned her.

I want...

Tabby walked off with Kurt's beer in her hand.

"Mein Gott!"

More to come shortly. Please review for more sexy Remy.
