Hey everybody! I though I'd give everyone a (late) St. Patricks day gift (since I'm also irish ha!) The memory Rogue was thinking of in Chap. 9 is mentioned in this chapter and I'll explain it at the end of the chapter. Thanks to everyone that has faved, followed and Reviewed. I really and truly appreciate it! Also, I would love to get some feedback on this chapter.

Before I forget, there is a bit of sexual references in this chapter, nothing too graphic, it's used mostly for humor. Enjoy the story!

Chapter 10

Gambit walked out of the Professor's office and he took in a deep breath and he slowly let it out he couldn't believe they had found out so quickly. He walked down the hall and down the stairs and he went out the front door, he grabbed his trench coat and he took it outside with him. He went to the side of the building and he stuck his hand inside a pocket on his jacket and he pulled out a pack of cigarettes, Remy had quit smoking a few years ago and he pulled a cigarette out of the pack and he just stared at it.

Finally he put it back into the pack and he charged it and he threw the pack of cigarettes and there was a small 'boom' he sat down on the ground and he was lost in thought.

How could they know? He never told anyone, not even Rogue, His eye's widened. Oh God what'll Rogue say if she found out, she'd kill him! Literally, she'd kill him. He groaned as he pictured her strangling him and, for some odd reason, her beating him with his bō staff. He shuddered, he knew he should've told her when they had met but he couldn't bring himself to do it. He didn't want to see her become like him, become a liar, alway's running, it was too late she had already become a thief so he couldn't stop her from being that. He eventually sighed and stood up, he would talk to the X-men about leaving in the morning. He figured the sooner he left the happier everyone would be.

Rogue opened her eye's to see an all white room, the furniture was white there was flowers in a vase and those were also white. There was no color none whatsoever she walked quietly to the window and saw nothing but bright white. She didn't even see the sun or grass or the sky and that's when she started to get worried.

" Where the hell am Ah?" She asked to herself and she walked down a hallway and saw nothing but a bright light.

" Please tell me Ah didn't die." she mumbled and she heard 'drip, drip, drip' and it was starting to get on her nerves. Rogue began to walk toward the dripping noise and as she neared the bright light the dripping got louder and louder and louder. She made it to the end of the hall and saw a door with a gold door knob, she leaned her ear against the door and she heard cutting noises and more dripping. She put her hand on the door knob and she turned it and she pushed the door slowly open and she squinted her eye's as the light disappeared. She walked inside the room and she closed the door behind her she noticed it looked like an operating room and she saw two people lying on two different operating tables.

Rogue walked toward the first one, she covered her mouth as she dry heaved his face was deathly white and his eye's were rolled into the back of his head. His entire body was covered in blood, there were cuts, bruises, and a big incision going down his chest and Rogue felt tears as she recognized who it was: Remy. She touched his hand and she realized she wasn't wearing any gloves. He was so cold, she couldn't even imagine what had happened to him, she looked over to the other table and she saw... Nothing? Wait, that wasn't right there was someone lying there just a moment ago. Rogue walked over to the table and looked down, and her eye's widened. She was covered in blood! She screamed and she felt someone grab her behind her neck and lift her up. She felt Sabertooth's claws sink into her flesh and she winced in pain when he slammed her against the table and she inwardly groaned as she felt a bump start to form on her shoulder. She looked and saw a man come toward her as Sabertooth held her down.

" Stop squirming." the man commanded and he looked vaguely familiar. He grabbed a knife from a table and he cleaned it off and Rogue squirmed more trying to loosen his grip on her.

" This'll only hurt for a moment." he pointed the knife at her and he plunged it into her chest.

Remy walked back into the mansion and he went up the stairs and he walked past a room and he heard muffled moans and he frowned and he put his ear to the door and he heard rustling of sheets and more groans and moans. His brow furrowed more, either someone was having a nightmare or two people were doing something they weren't supposed to do. He hopes it was the first one.

Remy slowly opened the door and saw Rogue twisting and turning in her bed, she was having a nightmare. He walked inside and closed the door quietly and he walked over to the bed and he sat down at the foot of it. He knew he should've woke her up but he had no idea what she would do, he figured she'd punch him in the face like that one time in rio de janeiro. She started moving her arms as though she were trying to fight someone off, she looked so scared he charged his hands slightly and he grabbed her wrists and he slowly began to try to wake her up.

" Chére, you need to wake up! Please, wake up!" He muttered and shook her slightly.

Rogue screamed slightly as she sat quickly up in bed and she saw Remy staring at her with concern, she saw him holding her wrists and she quickly yanked her hands away from him and she moved back and she only stopped when she felt her back hit the head board and she pulled her knee's up to her chest and she wrapped her arms around them.

" Rogue, what's wrong?" Remy asked with worry in his voice he saw a terrified look in her eye's and he didn't like it one bit, Rogue just looked at him and she shook her head and wiped a few tears from her eye's.

" Just had a bad dream sugah, sorry if Ah woke you." she mumbled as she moved down the bed and Remy smiled at her and he moved closer to her and he wrapped his arms around her.

" I was awake anyway." he shrugged and Rogue moved out of his arms and she laid down and turned away from him.

" Roguey what's wrong? Y'know you can tell me anything." he said laying down next to her and he propped himself onto his elbow and he sighed as she didn't answer him.

" If you don't answer me," he started as he smirked " I'm going to make it seem like were having sex." at the Rogue turned to face him with wide eye's.

" You wouldn't dare!" She said and his smirked widened.

" Wanna bet?" He asked and Rogue rolled her eye's and she giggled.

" I wouldn't put it past ya." Remy smiled as she curled up next to him and he wrapped an arm around her. They sat there in comfortable silence, just enjoying one another's company it seemed like nothing had changed like they were back in those cheap apartments and sometimes hotel rooms. Like they were back on the road and still together, still happy, still in love.

" You remember that time in Hong Kong when we were driving home and a cars headlights blinded us and we had thought we died?" she laughed at the memory and Remy nodded.

" Yeah, and you asked ' Are we in heaven?' And I replied 'After all we've said and done? I don't think we'll be going there'." he laughed and Rogue nodded.

" And that commercial for male enhancement drugs came on the radio and Ah said ' And they have male enhancement drugs!' " Rogue added while laughing than she added.

" Well you were thinking it too." she continued to giggle and he nodded. Rogue laid her head onto his chest and she looked up at him.

" What'd the Professor want?" She asked and Remy looked down at her before looking at the ceiling.

" Nothing, he just wanted to know if I'd be staying here much longer." he shrugged and Rogue lifted her head off of his chest and she sat up.

" Are you?"

" Am I what?" He questioned and Rogue crossed her arms.

" Will you be staying much longer?" She asked raising an eye brow and Remy looked at her than shrugged.

" I got what I came here for, I made sure you were okay and I got the info I needed." he answered and noticed a slightly disappointed look in Rogue's eye's, did she actually want him to stay?

" Oh." she said simply as she turned away from him again, and she curled up and Remy wrapped an arm around her waist and he spooned with her.

" Chére, if you don't want me to leave just say so." he whispered and Rogue smiled and she turned her head to face him.

" You know I'll never admit that." she whispered back and Remy nodded and smirked at her.

" I know chére, I know." he mumbled as he pulled her a little closer to him and they both fell asleep wrapped in each others arms.

The Next Morning:

Logan walked out of the kitchen after getting a cup of coffee and he went to the danger room.

He was half way there when Storm came up beside him.

" Logan, have you seen Rogue or Gambit?" She asked and Logan shook his head.

" No why?" He looked at her and she shrugged slightly.

" Well it's a quarter to noon and no one has seen them."

" They're probably still tired from last night." Logan said continuing to walk to the danger room when Storm grabbed him by his shoulder.

" Logan, I'm worried." she mumbled and Logan smiled and he put both hands on each of her shoulders.

" You're such a worry wart these days," he laughed " But seriously if you want me too, I'll look for them." and Storm smiled.

" Thank you, and I have a right to worry about them since Rogue doesn't know about him." Storm said and Logan nodded as he walked back toward the elevator and he hit for the top floor and he sighed. He wondered how Gambit got away with lying to Rogue and before he had more time to dwell on it he heard the 'ding' and he walked out of the elevator and walked toward Rogue's room.

Rogue woke the next morning in Remy's arms and she had to admit, she was enjoying it. Remy opened his eye's and he gave her a lazy smile which she returned.

" Morning river rat."

" Morning swamp rat." she laughed and she laid her head onto his chest and she almost closed her eye's when she heard her bedroom door open and in came: a VERY pissed off Wolverine.

" What the-?!" He started but before he could finish his sentence Remy jumped out of bed and out the open window. Logan looked over at Rogue who was staring at the open window, he growled slightly and he ran out of the room and Rogue jumped out of bed and followed Logan out of the room she had a bad feeling. A VERY bad feeling.

The story Rogue and Gambit are talking about happened to a friend and I while on our way to the beach last summer, I thought it'd give the story a bit of humor. Hope y'all enjoyed!
