Remy's POV
I waited very patiently for my phone call back from Pyro. Very very patiently. But you probably don't know what my version of patient is like. Rogue says I need lessons or something. I have no idea why. I'm a very calm person.
Hahahahahahahaha! *Wipes tear* Who are you tryin' to fool?
No one. Why?
No reason!
Oh well.
I paced and paced and drummed my fingers on the desk by my phone. There was a black track on the carpet were I had walking. All my bags were packed so I just had to wait for the others.
I guess I'll just have to entertain myself.
"A horse is a horse of course, of course, and no one can talk to a horse. Of course that is, of course, of course, unless the horse is the famous Mr. Ed. Right to the source, and ask the horse-"
Remy! Stop singing the Mr. Ed themesong.
Meow, someone's grouchy today! Jesus, woman.
Shut up, Remy.
Since when am I ever quiet?
Good point. Just go on with it.
Can do. If only Fire Bug would call me ba-
"I'm too sexy for Milan. Too sexy for Milan, New York, Japan-"
...Don't judge me...It's a good song, dangit!
"Yellow?" I asked into the phone.
"Gasp! How'd yoi know what colour I was wearin', Rems. Sniff. Yoi know me so well!" John's voice came through the other line.
"Johnny, y' only wear red or yellow." I told him.
"So?"
"Nev'rmind. So y' join' us or what?" I ask.
"I'll go, but...Wanda an' I had a fallin' out..."
"Oh, really, what hap'ned?"
"Get this, Toad kissed her! No wait, it wasn't his fault! She openly, accepted him with open arms and kissed him. She could've told me. She didn't tell anyone else. Heck, she didn't tell Toad about us..."
"Oh, Py, I'm sorry." I said sincerly. "She should've told y'. But...Tell her Rogue's joinin'. Oh, an' Wade."
I heard some grumbling. Something about me being impatient and inconsiderate. I wonder what gave him that stupid idea.
Gee, looks like we have a serious mystery on our hands, Scooby.
You know, you can be very annoyin', WC.
I aim to please.
You ain't pleasin', petite.
Do you wish for me to kill you off?
No! Anything but that! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
Forgiven. I think Pyro's sayin' something.
"-Woman! SHUT UP!" I heard zapping noises and someone going "YEOW!".
Pants started filling the other line. I held the phone away from my ear and gave it a questioning look.
"She said yes."
"Bon. See y' tonight. Be sure t' pack." I said as I hung up and fist pumped. Then I remembered how Wanda had a temper when angery.
Merde. Maybe bein' with Rogue will make it worth it? Yeah, she might calm them down a bit.
Oh, who am I kidding? This can only end disaster.
XXXXXXX
I waited outside the Institute for Rogue and Wade by my car. My beautiful, beautiful black 1968 chevy comaroe with red racing stripes. It looked like it just stepped out of a time machine. Bet you're jealous. In fact, you're probably drooling at the thought of me, the most gorgeous man on the face of the planet, having the most beautiful car ever.
My God! Shut up, Remy!
What'd I do?
*Pulls hair* You're so frustrating!
Your mom's frustrating!
What are ya, 2?
No. I'm 19. You wrote that, you should know how old I am.
*Sigh* I know how old you are, Gambit.
Uh oh, you only call us by our codenames when your upset...
OH GOOD LORD, SHUT UP! We know this! Now just...be quiet! Please!
FINE, WOMAN!
Rogue stomps over to me with Wade talking nonestop behind her. Her eye is twitching and she looks ready to kill.
"-Then there was the time Batman and I went to Burger King. Yeeeeeah, I'm really suspicious about him and Robin. I mean, no one notices that his name is Dick, he wears little shorts-no undies!-and is a sidekick to a grown man in a rubber suit. I mean, what was DC thinking when they did that. Seriously."
"If yer tryin' to make me kill mahself, so help meh, Ah'm takin' yah down wit' meh!" Rogue screamed at him.
"Meow. Someone's PMSing!" Wade dodged Rogue's fist.
Rogue screamed in frustration and walked away. She flopped in the passanger seat and Wade took the hump in the back.
"Remy, either you slam that frickin' gas pedle now, or THERE WILL BE A BLOOD BATH!" Rogue screamed at the top of her lungs. I punched the gas and went to the Brotherhood house.
Wanda and John were looking away from each other, glaring what was ever in front of them.
"Geez, Rems. Any later, an' tha shelia here woulda bit my head off." John said as he sat right side of Wade.
Wanda got in on the other side and sneered at John. "Oh, you'd like that wouln't you?"
"Maybe I would enjoy it, just in spite of you."
"Well, I'd make it worse for you, just so you would enjoy it more."
"Good!"
"Fine then! Hmph!"
"Hmph!"
The turned their noses away from each other dramatically and Wade looked very uncomfortable.
"Well, this is akward."
God, this is going to be a long trip.
