A/N This chapter is for LaylaYuy who wanted Rogue to call Kitty.
A few days later Rogue found herself sitting in her apartment alone with her phone in her hand. She had it open to her contacts, she scrolled down to Kitty's cell phone number. Rogue sat with her finger hovering over the send button.
"I can do this. Kitty isn't gonna freak. She's my best friend she'll be supportive." Rogue said aloud. She hit send before she could change her mind.
"It's a good decision." Carol said in her mind.
After a few rings Kitty answered. "Hello?"
"Hey Kitty it's Rogue." Rogue said tentatively.
"Like Hi! Hows it going?"
"Um it's good. So you have some time I wanted to talk to you about something. Something important."
"Of course! Is this about the fact your bringing a date to Jean and Scott wedding. Everyone was kinda shocked."
"I um yeah it is."
"Okay hang on let me close my door so we can like have privacy."
"Thanks Kitty."
"Okay so shoot."
"Well I have been seeing him just a short time. And I don't know how everyone will react to him."
"Well I mean every dealt with the whole you and Gambit thing."
Rogue was at a loss again. "You knew about Re.. Gambit too?" She said thinking of Logan.
Kitty Laughed. "Well he did come up to our balcony to see you. And you would always take out that queen of hearts card he gave you when you thought no one would see you." Kitty paused. "And me and Kurt kinda followed you and saw you and him in the park once."
"You what. Why didn't you ever say anything." Rogue said flabbergasted.
"Well you didn't seem to wanna talk about it and I wanted you to come to me." Kitty said quietly. "And you seemed so happy when he was around I didn't wanna mess that up."
"Thanks Kitty I should have trusted you with my secret."
"Yes but I forgive you. I.." Kitty was interrupted by a knock on her door. "Hang on Rogue."
Rogue heard muffled voices. All she could make out was Kitty was talking to someone named Pete. Rogue couldn't remember anyone named Pete at the institute.
"Okay I'm back." Kitty said retuning to the line.
"Who's Pete?" Rogue inquired.
"Oh he's Piotr Rasputin. You remember Colossus? We apparently Magneto was keeping his family hostage and forcing him to work for him. So after the whole Apocalypse thing he went looking for them but couldn't find them. But Gambit did and brought Pete and his sister here about a month ago. Gambit didn't say but I think he was hoping to find you here."
Rogue was quiet for moment while she took this in. "I see."
"Should I have not told you about the Gambit part. I mean I know your seeing someone else." Kitty said with worry in her voice.
"No its good you told. I wish he had." As soon as she said all Rogue could think was busted.
"What do you mean told you? Have you like seen him?"
"Yes I have. He's the one I'm seeing."
"What! Oh! Really! That's so awesome. Oh my god did he go looking for you after he left here?"
"Um I'm kinda in New Orleans I went looking for him. But when I got here I didn't see him but I decided to stay anyway and then he found me in a bar."
"You went looking for him awwwww. That's sweet. How long have you guys been together."
"Well only about a week. But we are kinda picking up where we left off I guess. It already feels serious. He told me he loves me."
"Seriously that is so like awesome. Have you guys you know." Kitty asked.
"Yeah." Rogue answered glad couldn't see her blush.
"How was it?"
"Awesome."
Kitty giggled. "I'm so glad Lance and I never did. It will be better when I love someone."
"Yeah."
"I really miss you Kitty."
"I miss you too. But I know you needed a break. I want you to come home soon."
"I'll come for the wedding and see how I feel then."
"Okay But you have to keep calling me then. Do you want me to tell them about Gambit or not."
"Not at least not yet. I want to tell Logan and Kurt myself. I'm just not ready yet. And don't tell them you know where I am. I pretty sure that will tip them off who I'm with."
"You may be on to something there." Kitty laughed. "Call me soon okay?"
"I will bye Kitty."
"Bye Rogue."
Rogue hung up and started to get ready for work. She had a lot to think about. Why hadn't Remy told her about Colossus? Maybe it just hadn't come up yet?
After a slow night at work Rouge arrived home to a familiar form waiting for her. "Well hello fancy meeting you here I thought you were busy with your brother tonight?"
"I ditch out early to see you." Remy replied leaning down to kiss her.
"Well I guess I should invite you in then." Rouge smiled leading the way to her door. "I talked to Kitty today."
"Oh how is she?" Remy asked.
"Well she said Colossus is at the Institute now."
"Oh is he?" Remy said acting ignorant.
"She said you brought him there. That you found hes family who had been held hostage."
Remy didn't reply and just looked at her.
"Remy?" Rogue demanded.
Remy sighed. "Yes I brought him there. He found me and asked me to help him because he couldn't find them on his own. So I did and his little sister was coming into her powers and having trouble with them so I thought Xavier's was the best place for them."
Remy shrugged. "I mean he's not a bad guy he was just in a bad situation. Not like me." Remy continued. "Besides I was hoping to see you there and convince you to give me another chance."
"I don't think you are a bad guy. Just a little mislead." Rogue said walking towards him and putting his face in her hands.
"You really think that chere?" Remy said.
"Yes I mean just look at what you did for Colossus. Did you charge him for your help or make him owe you a favor?"
"Well no."
"See there's some prof."
"I love you."
"I love you too, Remy."
