Disclaimer: I own nothing, so don't sue me, all you'd get is my POS radio. Also in this there's a lot of French, I'll put the English in parenthesis and italics. Reviews are greatly appreciated.
As she was walking to lunch form fifth period, Marie was called to the office by the professor.
"Great" she thought wearily as her stomach growled in protest. She made her way to his office and found herself being greeted verbally into the room. She sat down across from Xavier.
"You wanted to see me?" Rogue asked.
"Yes I did. There's a new student here. His name is Remy and I'd like you to show him around seeing as how you know the mansion like the back of your gloves." Charles smiled. He gestured to a tall man sitting at the table to her side.
"Bonjour ma belle ami"(Hello my beautiful friend) He said sticking out his hand for her to shake.
"Bonjour je m'apelle Marie.(Hi, my name's Marie) But please call me Rogue." She said hoping he'd understand her English.
"You can call me Gambit. Iz everyone here a mutant?" He asked, his accent thick. It surprised her that he spoke English very well indeed.
"Yes."
"May I ask what your power iz?" He asked.
"I absorb other mutants powers or human energy and thoughts through contact with my skin, hence why I have gloves in the middle of April." She opened the door and walked into the elevator.
"How long have you lived in zis place?" He inquired.
"J'habite dans la maison du prof. Xavier pour deux ans." She answered pushing the 2 button.
"You will be on the second floor, the quickest way is to take the elevator because your room is the third door on the right. You room with my boyfriend, Bobby." Rogue said. She took one of his bags and opened the door and dropped it off. Luckily Bobby wasn't there. She was too hungry to talk.
"I'll show you where the kitchen is come on." She said taking the stairs this time. She walked down the hall aways and turned into the kitchen. She went to the fridge grabbed a Capri sun and some lunch meat to make a sandwich with. She made herself a sandwich until finally sitting on a barstool. Gambit sat across from her.
"How many years of French have you taken?" He asked.
"About 3, I'm still taking it." She said. Gambit got up and looked in the fridge.
"Why iz zere beer in here?" He said grabbing a bottle of water and shutting it.
"There's a guy named Logan who lives here. He likes to drink the stuff a lot." She said finishing the last of her sandwich and putting the dish in the sink. As if on cue from hearing his name, Logan appeared in the doorway.
"Who's this?" Logan said walking to the fridge and grabbing a beer.
"My name's Gambit." He said.
"Well, then mine's Wolverine." He said popping off the lid of the beer with a claw.
"Rogue, you failed to mention he had claws." Remy said. Fear was evident in his voice. Rogue got up to throw her Capri sun pouch in the trash.
"Once you get to know him Gambit, He's really more like a kitty cat." She said scratching Logan behind the ear. He grunted in protest as she giggled.
"I'll tell ya, she seems so cute and sweet but she's vixen. Don't let her fool ya bub." He said leaving the room.
"He likes you." She said after his form disappeared.
"Does he like garcons?" (men/boys)
"NO NO NO NO I didn't mean like that. It's just he only talked to me after his crush died last year. We were on a mission upa t alkali lake and when the lake burst Jean, his crush, had to lift us with her telepathy and still the water to save the rest of our lives." She said. She guided him into the game room and then the living room and the entrance room. They were going to go outside when Bobby came in. Rogue went to him and hugged him.
"Bobby this is Gambit, he's new here." Bobby shook his hand and froze it. Rogue knew this was a warning sign to him.
"Don't worry mon ami, she's already told me you're her petit ami." (my friend) (boyfriend)
"Oh okay." Bobby said blushing. "You know how it is, when you finally find the girl of your dreams u never wanna let her go." Bobby smiled at Rogue.
"Je comprend bien." He said. (I understand well)
"So what's your power?" Bobby asked. Gambit smiled and reached into his pocket for a deck of cards. He shuffled them and took the top card in his hand made it turn read and threw it into the ground; slicing the hardwood floor and the card stood straight up. Gambit grabbed the card with ease.
"See why can't I have an awesome power like that?" Bobby asked. Remy laughed.
"Hey did you watch the ballgame last night?" Bobby asked starting up conversation.
"Hey since ur gonna chit chat show him around outside I'm gonna go to my classes now. Nice meeting you Gambit." Rogue said as the guys waved her off and continued their conversation.
