"I know, Daddy." Bella Donna says, into her glitter clad iPhone. "I'll be back home soon. De mission is jus takin longer than I expected." Leaning against the metal bannister on the porch of the hotel room that she was renting, Bella rolls her eyes as her father complains about her not being back yet. "I don't need your help. I know what I'm doin."
Bella hangs up the phone as her father continues to question her about what she was doing. He didn't know that she was in Bayville trying to find Remy. As far as he knew, she was on a mission in France. Screw him. She wasn't coming home until she had Remy back around her little finger. He was hers and that Mississippi Bitch would not take him away from her.
It won't be much longer. She thinks as she plays with a vial about the size of her forefinger. Holding the bottle up into the light, she examines the greenish liquid inside. The man she had gotten it from had promised that it would work. Bella Donna lets out a small giggle. It wouldn't be much longer until Rogue was gone and Remy was back in New Orleans with her.
Looking down at the courtyard, she catches the eye of one of the hotels employees. He was a fit guy, who looked to be in his mid-twenties. Putting on her best smile, she motions for him to come up to her room.
Rogue had felt uneasy for the last two days. Bella Donna seemed to always be watching. Rogue had lost count of the amount of times she had looked up to find that the blonde girl was staring at her. She was planning something, that much was certain. Rogue just wished she knew what was going to happen.
Sighing, Rogue glances down at her stomach, she hadn't put on that much weight since her pregnancy started, but it was starting to show. Just that morning, Rogue had struggled to zip up her uniform for training, hell, it wouldn't be much longer until she would no longer be able to hide it from anyone. One thing that she was grateful for was the chilly weather that New York provided. It had already been a month since she had found out, summer was coming quick enough and she wouldn't be able to wear Remy's hoodies after the heat came. At least not without getting asked a million and one questions by the younger students.
"Hey." Kitty says, as she walks back into the room. "I got something for you." The Valley girls says, kneeling on the floor beside her purple clad bed. "I know it's, like, really early or whatever, but it was too cute." Kitty hands Rogue a plastic shopping bag and sits down on the bed beside her. With a glance at the other girl dips her hand in and pulls out a green onesie covered in ducklings. "Since we don't know what the babies is going to be yet I thought that would be the most appropriate color."
"Thank you, Kitty." Rogue says, hugging the other girl. She had never been very affectionate, but she was blaming it on the hormones. "I suppose it's time that I start buying things for it here and there."
"Buying things for what?" Scott asks, walking into the girl's room.
Rogue quickly shoves the onesie into her bag as Kitty jumps to her feet. "God Scott, like, don't you know how to knock?"
The brunet rubs the back of his head. "Sorry." He mumbles, then looks to Rogue. "I actually wanted to talk to you about something…" He glances at Kitty, who was still wearing an annoyed expression. "Privately."
With a huff, Kitty walks to the door and phases through it.
"What did you want to talk about?" Rogue asks, shifting uncomfortably on the bed, she hoped he wouldn't ask her about what was in the bag or even worse, try to open it.
"Look…" Scott lets out a deep sigh. "Heck, I don't know how to say this…" Standing up, he walks across the room to lean his arm on the window. A position that made Rogue think of every cliché movie moment that she had ever seen. "I- It's just- I want to tell you-"
"Spit it out, Scott." Rogue says, her annoyance level rising.
"I think I have feelings for you." He says, after a long moment of silence.
Rogue sits there, stunned. "What?" This couldn't be happening, not now of all times. What in the hell is wrong with him?
"I know this is sudden." He says, pacing across the room. "We are both in relationships and its not fair for me to do this to Jean, but I just couldn't keep it in any longer." Scott sighs again. "I don't know what to say. I think I have liked you for a long time, but I didn't really notice until after you and Gambit started dating. I still don't understand what you see in that punk. He is nothing more than a crook."
"Don't talk about him like that." She says, her anger suddenly spiking.
"Look, I just think that you could do a lot better."
"By better, you mean that I should be dating you?"
"Jean and I don't get along like we used to. We seem to argue over just about everything. I don't think we were ever supposed to be together for long, the puppy love seems to have worn off. I think that we should give us a chance."
"Scott…" Rogue runs a hand through her hair. "Ah think that ship has sailed. Ah don' have feeling like that for ya anymore."
Scott nods, disappointedly. "I guess I understand. Just forget it." He says, walking out of the room and slamming the door behind him.
What in the fuck just happened?
Authors Note: Firstly, I want to apologize for my long absence. I had a lot of personal things happening with work and school. I am going to try to be back for a while and upload often.
Rbear1231- I can assure you, Laura will be the reason that Remy finds out.
Coco-Chic- I agree, Remy's reaction will be great. Logan is the one I would personally be terrified of.
Tex-Peppa- It certainly looks like the kid will be going off to College before Rogue tells Remy about it. She wants to, but she is scared of how he will react. Being an outcast for all those years has made her fear rejection. I'm so happy you like the Laura and Rogue connection. I have always thought they would be like sisters, especially sense they have similar attitudes.
Zoeyszone: Thank you for your support. Dream Remy is certainly an ass.
Vivi LeBeau- First, Love the name. I am glad you enjoyed it that much. Your comment made me very happy. Laura and Rogue seem like a badass team to me. Who knows, maybe they will get an oneshot or two when I have some time. I am bad at reviews too! Thanks for the support
Listeningame- The next person hasn't been decided yet, but I agree. Bella would be an horrible person to know that kind of information. She would use it to hurt Rogue.
To anyone else who has commented and anyone else who plans to. Let me know if you want the baby to be a boy or a girl. Private messages are preferred so it can be a surprise to everyone. You can also find me on Pinterest (Which I'm actively on.) Anna Lebeau. I should be the only one on it.
