"We can't keep doing this, Remy."
"Nuttin t'be done 'bout it"
"Says you."
"In de long run it don' mattah, we bot-"
"We're both going to die eventually. Stop repeating yourself so much."
"Hush up, Wolfie."
"Make me!"
"Gambit will, don' worry"
Flash to: moonlight casting harsh shadows from and against the two figures. Movement and noise. It looks more violent and angry than it really is, but both of the men are predatory and strong, so maybe it is a touch violent. Neither of them seem to care. They love each other, but their collective wildness and reluctance to trust keeps them from admitting it.
They finish, in a haze of scratching, biting, screaming ecstasy, and instinctively curl together.
" I can't stay."
" Liah. Je sais."
" 'Ro is waiting."
" An' why is dat mah problem?"
" You're a jealous fuck, you know that?"
" You a loud fuck, di' you know dat?"
" I can't stay."
" Ah don' see you leavin'"
" I'm gonna. I just..."
" You jus' wanna stay wit' Gambit and argue, eh?"
" What can I say, you're a very stimulating person to be around."
" Ah guess dat's why you be fallin' asleep, mon petit."
" I am NOT falling asleep, I'm just resting my eyes."
Flash to: Exhausted from trying not to cry. He can't cry. He can't do anything. Of course Logan can sense the chaos, but still, one must try to be strong for the sake of appearance. It would be quite, quite un-Remy to break down right now. So he won't. He'll calm his trembling, steady his voice, slap Logan in the face, and walk away.
" Don't let it end like this, Remy."
" Den don' end it, Wolfie."
" You're not seeing the whole picture, as usual."
" Ah see what ah need t'see. Ah always do."
" I hate you right now."
" Keep bein' a liah, petit. Ah know de trut'."
" Fuck you."
The noise of the slap echoes. The two men go in opposite directions. Remy manages to make it to Rogue's bedroom door before he loses his carefully controlled calm, and cries out his anguish to his best friend, the sister of his soul.
Logan stalks to the garage, throws himself on his bike, and explodes down the driveway and onto the open road.
