A/N: This story is dedicated to my best friend who lost her mother yesterday (December 5). Hon, this is for you. You brought back my love for romyness. This being said, updates may take longer because I am needed over there to help them get life up and running again. I'm still in shock over it myself. It was very sudden, but at least she was saved (her mother, that is). Thanks to GhostAuthor and Gidgeygirl for adding this to Story Alert.

Chellerbelle: Yep, she got it back.

Kii: I am so relieved that you enjoyed the way I had it come back. It took me at least half an hour to get that particular scene way I wanted it. Whew! Hang in there for more.

Remy A.L.: Yeah, it took me awhile to figure out what kind of setting I wanted it to happen in, then I thought of that one and thought "Perfect". Hehehe. That is how I think a husband should be with his wife. Never losing hope when bad things come 'round.

Courtneycutie: The memory has returned! :)

Her shower finished, Rogue realizes that she forgot to take her clothes in with her. In her towel, she comes out of the bathroom and stops in front of the mirror. Curiosity overtakes her and she lifts her

towel to reveal her stomach. She knows that she has been putting on weight, hey she is beginning her 10th week after all, but a smile comes to her face seeing the slight 'baby bump' showing. She runs her hand over it, entranced. These are her babies, their babies. Her memories have returned and Remy never gave up on her. Yeah, life is good. She gets dressed in one of her nicer tops and pairs it with black jeans, then bends over the bed. Her lips set in an evil smirk, she yanks the covers off her husband, who lets out a startled yelp and falls out of the bed.

He quickly regains his composure as his wife stands over him, laughing. "Cherie, y' r' in such big trouble!" he gives her a wicked grin and pushes himself up off the floor.

"Ooh, I'm shakin' in my boots!" she mockingly retorts.

"Y' should be." he replies quietly and moves closer to her, pinning her against the wall. He reaches one hand down and finds her most ticklish spot. She cries out, and after a few seconds is breathless with laughter. He reaches down, helps her back up and grabs her around the waist.

"Was that my 'punishment'?" she asks with a mischievous grin.

"Part o' it. De res' will be after de bebes are 'ere. 'M kinda limited in w'at I can do t'ya now, but y' just wait." He finishes that statement with a kiss that leaves both of them breathless this time.

"So r' y' an' de ange goin' int' de city t' find y' dress t'day?"

"Yeah. Ya two comin' with?"

"I s'ppose we should, jus' t' keep y' deux out o' trouble." he teases.

"Ha! If anyone needs watchin' it's ya an' Kurt! Do I need ta remind ya of ya're prank war several weeks back an' all tha scorch marks ya had ta paint over?"

"'Ey! Y'r jus' jealous 'cuz y' were t' tired t' play along wit' us."

"Yes, I am!" she turns away, feigning a sniff.

He lifts up her hair and kisses the back of her neck. "Y' can join us nex' time. Better yet, it could jus' be y' an' me. Winner gets t' decide w'at de loser does." he purrs seductively.

"Ya know, if ya don' get dressed, they're gonna come lookin' for us." she gives a low laugh.

"Yeah, y'r right. Don' wan' dose deux idiottes interruptin' us again. Wish dey'd get girlfriends or somet'in'." he mutters, annoyed.

Several minutes later they are sitting in the kitchen, enjoying the smell of Tante's beignets.

"Oh Tante! Ya made these again. I love ya!" Rogue gushes, bringing a chuckle from the older woman.

"O' course I did, chile! Y' gon' need a lot o' energy fo' shoppin' an' 'm beginnin' y'r bebes education on proper eatin' early." Tante brings her over a tall glass of milk and a plate of the pastries.

"Now y' eat all o' dis. I don' wanna see a crumb left on dat plate, y' 'ear?"

"Oui Tante." Rogue answers.

"Remy, y' make sure she eats all o' dat now, boy."

"Yes ma'am." Remy answers with a wink to his wife.

Two dress shops later comes to nothing. They find a third and the guys (Remy and Kurt) find seats, wearing bored expressions. A short while after, the girls return, Rogue with a dress bag slung over one arm. The guys share a relieved glance and the four leave to look at some of the other shops. Rogue spots one window and stops.

"Aww, those are so cute!" she exclaims.

Seeing the expression on his wife's face, Remy turns to the other couple. "Y wan' t' come in 'ere wit' us?"

"Nein, I zhink ve vill vait for you at ze Starbucks." Kurt answers as Angel turns an amused glance toward him.

At Rogue's disappointed cry, Remy tells them "She's really missin' 'er coffee."

When Kurt and Angel leave, they enter the store and Rogue visibly brightens again. It's a baby store. She admires the tiny outfits and toys, exclaiming over everything she can touch.

"Oh, look at these blankets. And these lil' onesies!" A small laugh escapes Remy at his wife's exuberance.

"Cherie, dey 'ave a gift registry an' an online store." he hints.

Hint taken, she makes her list and hands it to the clerk, but they leave the store with two incredibly soft blankets in a pale green and a yellow. At Starbucks, Kurt and Angel wave to them from an outdoor table.

"I see Rogue wouldn't let you leave without something for the babies." Angel teases, knowing she would do the same thing with Kurt.

"Oui, alt'ough dis isn' even 'alf o' w'at she wanted." he adds, faking a shudder, which gets him a smack in the arm.

Angel looks at her knowingly. "Online store?" she inquires with a grin. At Rogue's nod, she giggles. "Good! That gives the rest of us ideas for gifts."

I know this is short. My apologies, everyone. This is just a chappie to kind of fill-in and lead to other "events". That and I have a lot going on right now (see above). I will get started on the next one, as soon as I can. Please hang in there! I appreciate all of your reviews/alerts notices.
