"So Sugah, we got anah plans fah tonaght?"
Remy looked up to find Rogue face looking down on him as he sat on the couch.
"Oui, mais it's a surprise amour" he stretched his arms up to pull her down, but not too close as to not touch her skin.
"Mm Swamprat…that's not fair." Remy guided her over to him and pulled her down to his lap.
"Yeah, well chere if Ah told yah it wouldn't be a surprise now would it?"
Rogue buried her face closely to his neck, breathing in his scent, and kissed his hair. Remy could feel a shiver going down his back, he shook his head "Non chere, ain't goin get da answer like dat."
She crept her gloved hand inside his shirt; he could feel her fingers sliding lower and lower till…
"Eww like gross! Can't you two find like a room or something?" Kitty, along with a few other x-men walked into the room.
Rogue pulled away from Remy, who was pissed that they had to ruin their fun. He put on a tight smile.
"Desole, Chaton. Thought yall were leaving." He looked over at Rogue who held a tight smile too. "Comme maintenant." (Like now!) He told them.
"We were. But we wanted to know if you guys could come." Bobby asked them, he was trying not to laugh. He was failing miserably.
"Da Rogue and Je (I) –" Rogue cut him off
"Would love tah come." She stood up and joined them.
"Alright! Let's go then."
Remy stood up and grabbed Rogue hand "But chere we were having so much fun. Ici" (Here).
"Well Swamprat," she tapped her chin thinking "If yah tell me where we're going tonaght ah'll reconsider."
"Aucune voie, non."(No, way nope.)
She groaned.
"We're goin then"
"So be it, Ah'll go get my coat." He kissed the top of her head and ran up.
"Hurry up Sparky!" He could hear Jubilee shouting after him.
He had been with the x-men for five months now, and loved every minute of it. Except that Rogue made him stop smoking, and Logan and Scott were always watching him to see if he would hurt Rogue. He and Rogue had been dating for four of the months he had been here. His life here was so much better than it was in New Orleans.
'Actually anything would have been.' He thought silently to himself as he got his coat and went back down stairs.
"A'right, Ah'm readah. Let's go." He opened the door but nobody followed. "Yall heard me?"
Everyone was standing still, he looked at the young x-men they were solid. Some of them had their mouths open.
"What the baiser?" (Fuck) he turned to see the Professor walking with Logan, both had they're mouths open too. Remy walked up to them and waved his hand in front of their faces.
"What da hell is goin' on 'ere?" he yelled.
"Hello Gambit."
He turned to face a girl, her dark brown hair was held high in a ponytail while her bangs covered her light lavender eyes lightly, she was sitting on the table in the foyer. She cocked her head slightly to the side taking the sight of him in
"Long time no see." She told him.
He seethed, "Bonjour Swift"
The last time he saw her was two years ago when he wanted out the guild and out of marring Bella. That was her promise to him, she would get him out, but he had to do her a little favor. The little favor almost killed him.
"What do yah want?" he asked her "And take dis bull merde spell of everyone. NOW!"
"Afraid I can't do that now." She replied calmly, she had expected he would be angry with her.
"Pourquoi bon Dieu non?" (Why the hell not?)
"You've been chosen agai-"
"Non! Je was already chosen. Remembah? Ah killed the big bad chienne (bitch) of a woman who wanted to enslave everyone, y'got moi out of marrin bella and da hell outa da Guild." He was boiling over with rage.
"Look, I don't like this either. But you and I have no choice-"
"Reallah? Ah seen what yah cap-"
"Gambit they have my sister."
"Dey what?"
"They're not letting her go until the assignment is done." She said in a morose voice.
His face fell. "Dey got Bliss?"
She nodded her head yes.
"They stripped her powers; they said after the last assignment that we were done. But they tricked us. And now if you don't do anything, there is a good chance I am not going to see my sister ever again."
Remy lowered his head, he knew of Bliss and Swift dilemma: they had to serve the High Council in their world. They were treated with no respect because unlike everyone else in their world, they were hybrids: part vampire, mutant, and witch. Everyone had a family in their world except them, they didn't have anyone else just each other.
He looked up to see Swift with her knees to her chest.
Those bastards had to separate her from the one person who could make her feel better. He wanted to help, but…
"I would make it worth your wild, of course." Her voice broke Gambit from his thoughts.
"What y'mean?" he asked her suspiciously.
She got off the table and walked around the frozen group of x-men. She stopped next to Rogue.
"You got a cute girlfriend." She told him.
"Merci." Where was she going on with this?
"It must suck though. You not being able to touch her. Her powers drain anyone who touches her skin, Right?"
Gambit nodded his head
"What has it been four, five months that you've been a couple?"
He just nodded his head again and eyed her. How the hell did she knew that? He wished Bliss was here instead; at least she was more reasonable.
"That is a long time for you." She looked at him "Don't you think?"
"Swift ah warnin ya-"
"You help me defeat this psycho or whoever is making the council sweat, and I'll let you have the power to touch Rogue." She finished.
He didn't falter. "Yah can do dat?"
"Yes."
Gambit liked Bliss, all he had to do was defeat a quack and he could be able to touch Rogue?
He sighed. "Alraght. Ah'll do it."
Swift let out a small squeal and ran up and hugged him.
He looked down on her. "S'just kill da baddie and get out, Hein?"
She let go of him and smoothed down her clothes.
"Well, not that simple. You are assigned with two other people."
'Sort of speak' she thought to herself.
"Qui?"
"Two guys. Spike and Angel"
They way she said it, and the way her face looked was telling it wasn't two of the guys on the X-homme team.
"And dey are?"
"Really good friends of mine, they've been destined before too."
Swift looked up.
"They should be here soon."
Between them a black portal opened up and two men walked out.
The first one: a bit shorted than him, with dark brown hair and blue eyes. He wore a black leather jacket.
The second one: slightly shorter than the first. With bleached blond hair and a long worn out leather duster.
"Gambit meet your teammates. Spike" she pointed to the one with blond her. "And Angel" she pointed over to the brunette.
"Angle. Spike, meet Gambit." She backed up abit.
One look and Gambit had a feeling they were not mutant, nor humans. He couldn't tap into their emotion. He also had a feeling he wouldn't get along with them.
"So," said Spike as he eyed Gambit "this the wanker we working with?"
Yep, he wasn't going to like them.
So can I get any reviews? Tell me if yah liked it, or not. Disclaimer: I own nothing except for Bliss and Swift and the Council members.
