Hope you Enjoy!
Dear Chere (aka Rogue),
Remy wants to say he's sorry for acting like an idiot and thinking you had something nasty going on with the blonde dude idiot, Cory (or was it Corky?). Forgive Remy and let's french kiss and make-up in bed.
Love (which we are going to make),
Remy LeBeau (who else can it be except me? Huh?! If there is someone else then tell me!)
P.S: This letter will self-destruct in five secs……
"Ouch!" Bobby cried when Remy smacked him on the head with the letter. "What?! A guy tries to be helpful and this is what he—"
"Helpful? You tryin to get Remy killed!" Remy said. "Remy told you to only write what he said!"
"It was lame and needed improvement," Bobby dismissed. "Why are you with me up here anyway?
"Oh no mon ami. De question is, what are you doin up here wid Remy?"
"School project. Migratory birds," Bobby responded coolly, taking out a pair of binoculars from his backpack.
Remy shook his head, knowing what he was upto. "Dat is one fille you should keep away from," he cautioned after catching sight of a silhouette, presumably belonging to Emma, moving back and forth inside one of the rooms.
"Stay way?!" Bobby exclaimed as he adjusted the binoculars. "No way! I-I mean, look at the pretty migratory bird!"
"Blonde birds with blue eyes are always trouble," Remy mumbled.
"Aww….did Remy LeBeau have some 'unfortunate' incident with a blonde girl with blue eyes?"
"Non!" Remy quickly denied. "Nothin!"
"Yeah right!" Bobby began sarcastically. "You sound practically scared Gambit—Oh my God! There she is Gambit!" He suddenly screamed pointing at something behind Remy.
"Where?!" Remy actually whirled.
"Oh man!" Bobby was laughing his everything off. "I can't believe you fell for the lamest trick in the book!"
"Very funny ice cube…" Remy hissed and was about to retaliate.
"Oooo birdy is shedding her feathers….." Bobby murmured, his attention back to the window. "Open curtains! Open sesame!"
The curtains opened to reveal not Emma, but some unfamiliar girl.
"Who de hell is dat?!" Remy asked, instantly forgetting about doing something painful to Bobby "Dink Remy's seen her."
"Me too. But how?…..hmm…nice…" Bobby murmured, zooming in on her behind.
The girl walked up to the mirror, yawned, stretched her arms and let out a bloodcurdling scream.
"Uh….Must be a pimple," Bobby presumed.
The girl suddenly started cursing loudly in German before she faded away and in her place stood—
"Kurt!!" Bobby screeched almost making Remy fall off the tree. "That's—K-Kurt—Oh man!" He paled as he slowly brought down the binoculars. "I'm going to be sick! Who could play such a terrible joke?!"
He heard a little snicker and found Todd at the bottom.
"You evil frog—" Bobby made a gesture to throw the binoculars at him.
"Hehe gotta go!" Todd said with a nervous laugh. "Later yo!" He then hopped out of sight.
"Ugh! I'm on the wrong tree!" Bobby realized. He was about to climb down but stopped and quickly put up the binoculars. "Oooo….Rogue's home….and she's not alone….."
"What?!" Remy snatched the binoculars while Bobby choked on its cord.
"G-Gambit! C-Can't breathe!" Bobby choked, trying to loosen the cord around his neck.
"How dare dat idiot stalk her?!" Remy growled on catching Rogue climb out of a car followed by Cody.
Bobby finally loosened the cord and gasped in air. "I-I could've died!"
"Shut up!" Remy snapped, never moving his eyes away from Rogue and Cody.
"Wow….this place is…..huge…" Cody uttered amazed.
"Yeah it is," Rogue answered, shifting uneasily.
"He's lookin for her room….." Remy uttered.
"Gambit," Bobby rolled his eyes. "He's just admiring this ultra-cool mansion."
"Non," Remy persisted. "Room."
"Umm…Thanks for the ride," Rogue began. "Sorry about your car," she nervously glanced at the huge dent on the side of the car. "Ah really didn't mean ta scare you like that. A-Ah kind of forgot about the detour at the mall and mah teleportin power also kind of ran out."
"It's ok. I was a bit….startled," Cody said after much thought. "Never saw someone appear out of thin air before. And Besides," he shrugged. "Car's a rental."
"What are dey sayin?!" The impatient Remy said.
"Somethin about….bar being rental?" Bobby answered, trying to lip-read their conversation.
"Bar? Rental? Hmm…." Remy pondered.
"So you're power is teleporting?" Cody asked Rogue.
"Uh…well sort of….that was a borrowed power actually."
"Borrowed?" Cody looked confused. "Then what's your real power?"
"Well you got a good demonstration on the dance floor."
"Dance floor? I'm sure she said dance floor!" Bobby said.
"You can put people in a coma?" Cody asked in a serious tone.
"Depends on how long Ah touch them. And their memories and life-force, everything about them flows inta me too."
"What? What did she say?!" The restless Remy asked.
"Something about touching….and force and flowing and more touching—O man!" Bobby shook his head. "Either your girlfriend is sick or I'm totally misinterpreting."
"Mon chere is fine!" Remy said. "Dat homme is de sick one!"
"H-How much do you know?" Cody asked faintly. "My memories."
"About…well….everythin," Rogue confessed
Cody's reaction was a mixture of embarrassment and fear.
"Don't worry. Ah'm not the tellin type."
Cody slowly nodded.
"Well….Ah should get goin," Rogue said, slowly backing a few steps.
"Hey! I think Rogue's about to leave," Bobby said.
"Dat means he's gonna ask her out," Remy guessed, taking out a coin. "Try…to ask her out….."
"Nah! He's a human," Bobby dismissed Remy's words. "He's going to runaway screaming in terror."
"Non." Remy aimed and threw the coin.
"Umm….." Cody began, watching Rogue walk away. "Uh…Rogue? Can I ask—Ouch!"
"Strike!" Bobby whooped.
"Yes?" Rogue turned to Cody.
"Uh…well I-I …" Cody stammered, looking around in confusion.
"Did you lose somethin?" She asked.
"Huh? Oh no! No! I-I just—Ouch! Hey!" He whirled around angrily when another coin hit his head.
Remy smirked when he saw Rogue looking at Cody as if he had lost it.
"I-I'm sorry," Cody quickly apologized to Rogue. "Some leaf hit me."
"A leaf?" Rogue brow shot up.
"A-A branch. With leaves," Cody corrected, looking embarrassed.
"It's kind of gettin late," Rogue said in a formal tone. "Ah have ta go."
"Can I get your number?" Cody blurted out loud enough for the occupants of the tree to hear.
"Number? Ha!" Remy laughed. "Dere be no way in a million years mon cherie is gonna give you her number."
Rogue appeared to be hesitating. Remy noticed this and his ecstatic mood vanished.
"Non Rogue…..Don't be a fool!" Remy muttered when she slowly took the pen from Cody. "No….no chere…." He mumbled when she wrote on Cody's palm. "No!"
"So that makes Rogue a fool right?" Bobby's question was answered with a hard smack on the back. "Ouch!"
"Thanks," Cody said.
"Bye," Rogue said and finally left.
"Bye…" Cody who was busy smiling to himself, never noticed someone sneak up behind him.
"Bonsoir mon ami."
Startled, he whirled to face Remy and Bobby. "Uh…hello?" He greeted them uncertainly. "Where did you—"
"No need to worry mon ami," Remy came up and put an arm around his shoulder. "We're not here to harm you very painfully."
"Yeah," Bobby agreed. "We come in peace."
Cody gave them odd looks. "I should be going."
"Non!" Remy suddenly grabbed his wrist and scribbled over Rogue's number on his palm.
"What are you doing?!" Cody said angrily, pulling his hand back.
"Relax! Relax!" Remy calmed him "Remy only be givin you de right number."
Cody was looking at him in disbelief. "What?"
Remy pulled out a small piece of paper from one of his trench coat's pockets. "Dis be de right number."
"Wait a minute!" Bobby interrupted after getting a good look at the number. "Isn't that—Oof!" He was shoved aside by Remy.
"You see, dis one—" Remy pointed at Bobby. "Accidentally broke her cell phone today and she doesn't know. So to save her all de trouble of findin you, we're givin you her new phone number."
At first, Remy was sure Cody wasn't going to believe him and ask questions, but surprisingly he did.
"Alright," Cody said after a while and took the paper.
Remy heaved a sigh of relief. "Another ding you should know. When you phone her, call her 'Ro'," Remy said and winked. "She loves dat name. Oh and don't forget 'Stormy', she loves dat as well. More than Ro."
Cody looked tentative. "But, she told me her name was—"
"Mon ami, she tells dat name to all strangers," Remy informed. "You ever dink of callin her, don't use de name 'Rogue' and also remember, her voice will sound a little different on de phone."
"Uh….Ok…." Cody said uncertainly. "Thank you."
Remy smiled. "What are friends for?"
Cody just gave him an odd look before climbing into his car.
"Au revoir," Remy smirked as he watched his car disappear. "For good."
"Are you crazy?!" Bobby burst. "Storm finds out and it's going to be thunderstorms for us!"
Remy yawned. "Don't care. Besides, she's out of range."
"The plan was 'not' to give him Storm's phone number but to—"
"It was lame and needed improvement," Remy repeated Bobby's previous words.
"Ok that's it! Before you do another stupid thing and put us in trouble I'll—Remy? Remy?" Bobby looked around confused when Remy disappeared. "Hmm….I think now is the perfect time to try out my instant 'mend together couples' plan."
"Ugh!" X23 made a disgusted face as Rogue came out of the bathroom after her four hour long shower. "You still stink."
"It's not mah fault that your nose is so big!" Rogue retorted.
"Unlike yours," X23 added. "No wonder you can't smell yourself."
Knock knock
"Who is it?" Rogue asked annoyed as she dried her hair.
"A teddy-bear." X23 replied.
Rogue chuckled as she walked towards the door. "What would a teddy bear be doin outside mah room?" She asked and swung open the door.
She blinked on really finding a teddy bear.
"Cute Remy…." she said as she picked the stuffed toy. "Really cute…."
"Gambit didn't send it idiot," X23 told her.
Rogue frowned, closing the door. "Who did then?"
As if in reply to her answer, someone knocked on the door.
Rogue answered it and was surprised to find Scott there.
"Uh….hey Rogue," he greeted nervously. "Ok umm…This may sound really strange but…you didn't happen to by any chance get a teddy bear?"
"Yeah Ah did," Rogue answered, giving him a puzzled look. "By Gambit Ah think."
"Uh…actually it was Jamie."
Rogue blinked. "Jamie? Why would he send it?"
"I told him."
"Oh….y-you did?" Rogue blushed. "What's the umm…." She trailed off after spotting the 'I love you' sign on the nose of the bear. "err.…occasion?"
"It's for Jean. Jamie accidentally placed it here."
"Oh. It's for Jean…." Rogue said sourly. She slowly handed it back. "Then Ah guess you should give this to her."
"Yeah I will," Scott said. "Sorry for disturbing you guys."
"It's alright," Rogue said slowly. X23 sneaked up behind her.
"Rogue has a crush on you." Rogue could only widen her eyes at X23's sudden proclamation.
"Uh…Excuse me?" Scott asked in a mixture of surprise and doubt.
"She's been actin crazy lately," Rogue quickly said, giving a pat on X23's head and resisting the temptation to rip her hair out. "Yeah poor little crazy thing. Good bye Scott."
She quickly closed the door before turning to X23 with the fury of a thousand storms. "What the hell were you tryin ta do?!"
"Something you're too scared to do," X23 answered calmly.
"Scared of what?" Rogue turned away from her. "Ah don't know what you're talkin about!"
"Yeah right," X23 rolled her eyes. "Loser!"
"Listen!" Rogue turned to her. "The only way that's goin to happen is if Ah'm possessed by some evil blonde cheerleader."
Knock knock
"You're busted. He heard it all," X23 said.
Rogue, at first, actually seemed to believe her, but after some thought, she shook her head dismissing the idea. "Nah!"
She answered the door. "Scott did you forget somethin—" She stopped when she saw a very sober Bobby "What do you want?"
"Can you….." He trailed off on catching sight of X23 in the room, "…come to my room? I-It's 18 and above stuff and I-I don't want her to hear this."
"Pornographic stuff you mean?" X23, who obviously heard, asked.
"No!" Bobby said innocently before leaning close to Rogue's ear and whispering, "Remy stuff!"
"What about—"
"No! Ssshh!" Bobby shushed her. "Confidential stuff. Come to my room."
Rogue hesitated.
"It will only take a minute," Bobby said. "C'mon! No one's going to suspect we did something. A minute is too short and it's impossible with your sucky powers—"
"Alright Ah get the idea!" Rogue said before following him to his room.
"C-Close the door," Bobby said, his voice suddenly wavering. "I-I don't want anybody else to hear this."
Puzzled, Rogue obeyed.
Bobby took a deep breath. "Rogue….I-I don't know where to start….It's so tragic….a-at this age, w-who could've guessed?"
Rogue folded her arms and gave him an annoyed look. "What are you talkin about?"
"R-Remy…h-he….h-he…" Bobby suddenly dropped on his knees and burst into tears. "Oh dear God!!!"
"What happened?!" Rogue cried, kneeling and grabbing him by the shoulders. "Did somethin happen ta Remy?! Answer me Bobby!!"
"Oh…..Rogue…." Bobby continued sobbing. "I-I can't! I-I just can't—Oh God!!!" He buried his face into her chest.
Normally, Rogue would've killed him, but right now, he was needed alive to tell whatever he wanted to tell her.
"Bobby c'mon tell me! Is Remy alright?" She asked in a softer tone.
Bobby slowly pulled back. "F-For now," he sniffed. "B-But, I-I don't know for how long."
"What?! What do you mean?"
Bobby sniffled and blew his nose on the bed covers. "A-A month ago….Mr. McCoy and Gambit—I-I heard them talking … too much alcohol and cigarettes….." He buried his face in the covers. "Why did he drink and smoke too much?!"
"Bobby! C'mon focus! What happened?" Rogue asked. "What did they say?"
"He's going to—not sure how much time is left, but Gambit's going to…." Bobby took a deep shaky breath as he lifted his face up. "Go to a trip to happy land…." He pointed up. "…..in the sky…...one way ticket."
Rogue blinked once, twice, thrice, before her features tightened into a frown. "You're jokin."
"Joke? Joke?!" He shouted angrily. "Would I be here if it was a joke?! Would I waste these precious tears if all of this was a joke?!" He asked before his voice took a tone that scared Rogue. "What if something happened to him now Rogue? Would that also be a joke? Huh?"
Rogue was speechless.
"I made a mistake coming to you. I should've gone to Jean instead!"
"Bobby wait!"
Bobby let out an exasperated sigh before turning to her. "Yeah?"
"Ah'm sorry it's just that…..you tellin me all this it's just—"
"Oh so coming out of my mouth is a joke? Yeah I don't blame you. Fate is so evil sometimes."
"You swear you're tellin the truth?" Rogue asked, still suspicious.
"Swear!" Bobby held up his palm. His other hand however, cloaked by the covers, had their fingers crossed. "Cross my heart and hope to die—Oh no! I-I mean go to a happy place. Faraway….."
Rogue stayed quiet from a few moments.
Bobby came up and put a hand over her shoulder. "My deepest condolences."
Rogue rolled her eyes. She walked towards the door. "Ah'm goin ta ask him."
"What?! No! No!" Bobby shook his head vehemently. "D-Don't! Please don't ask him! He doesn't want anyone to know. It's a secret between him and the good doc."
Rogue seemed to be in deep thought. "A secret? Why would he hide somethin like this from me?"
"Because he loves you?" Bobby suggested. "Just don't ask him."
Rogue sighed and slowly nodded. "Alright. Ah won't."
"Ok now….if you don't mind…I must cry my eyes out," Bobby said, before bursting into another round of tears.
Rogue gave him an uncertain look and left.
Bobby quickly got up, shut the door, locked it, let out a squeal and collapsed into never-ending laughter.
How did it happen? Rogue wondered as she walked through the passage-way in a daze. Well Jean could give a whole explanation on that but how could Remy be sick?! He looked 100 percent healthy 24/7! "Ah swear! It's like you never get tired!" She told him once. Bobby is an idiot and probably joking around and Remy is fine. Uh-Huh fine. Rogue assured herself as she headed towards the Cajun's room.
She stopped and lightly knocked on the door.
No answer.
She knocked again.
Still no answer.
Rogue frowned. Hmm…he couldn't be sleeping. It was too early for him. What if something happened—
She shook her head furiously. 'Stop it! He's fine! Bobby's an idiot!'
She knocked again, harder this time.
Nothing.
Without wasting any more precious time, she turned the doorknob and burst in.
No sign of Remy in the room, but she heard the shower, indicating he was in the bathroom.
She heaved a sigh of relief and walked towards the bathroom door.
"Remy?" She called and knocked many times.
No answer—only the sound of the shower.
"Remy?" She knocked again, harder this time and still got no reply.
'Why wasn't he answering? Why was the shower on? What the hell was Remy doing in there?!' were the questions currently swirling in Rogue's head.
"Remy if you're in there, answer me!" She practically screamed and pounded on the door so many times that her hand hurt. "Remy!!!!"
Wasting no time, Rogue backed up a few paces before delivering a flying kick to the door.
The door fell open with a thud.
Rogue rushed in but stopped when she caught sight of a familiar, but wet and naked figure.
For almost a minute, they stared at each other.
Rogue felt her cheeks grow hot and she turned to look the opposite way.
An awkward silence hung in the room before she heard the shower being turned off.
Remy was the first to break the silence. "Dere be a reasonable explanation for breakin de bathroom door?"
"A-Ah…uh…well…." Rogue was too embarrassed to face him, let alone say anything.
"If you wanted to use de bathroom so badly, all you had to do was knock," Remy appeared before her with a towel wrapped around his waist. But he was still dripping wet—Tiny droplets slowly sliding lower and lower and—
Remy cleared his throat. "Rogue? Remy's face is up here." He pointed out with a smirk.
"Ah know A-Ah was just admirin the floor," she lied before getting straight to the point. "Ah knocked many times and you didn't answer are you alright?" She asked without any pause.
Remy gave her a confused look. "Dink so."
Rogue was about to ask something else when she noticed the burn mark on his palm. "How did that happen?"
"Remy's heart go boom," Remy said sadly, pulling his hand back with the scar from the 'Cody' robots in the Danger Room.
"Don't say that Remy! N-Nothin's goin ta happen ta you're heart! You're goin ta be ok!" Rogue said before taking some antiseptic out and applying it on his palm. "There."
"It still hurts….." Remy said bitterly.
Instead of arguing, she placed her covered palm over his and kissed it. "And now?"
Remy smiled widely. "Mon Dieu! It's a miracle! De pain just vanished!"
"C'mon. Wear somethin," She dragged him out of the bathroom. "You're shiverin."
He smiled slyly at her. "Remy doesn't sleep wid clothes on."
Rogue's reaction almost made Remy lose his balance. "Are you crazy swamp rat?!! You can catch a cold or somethin worse deadly!!" She slapped her mouth shut after uttering the word 'deadly'
"Rogue…are you alright?" Remy asked, looking concerned.
She slowly removed her hand. "Ah'm fine, just put somethin on warm when you sleep okay?"
"What's de matter? Afraid dat Remy might catch his death?" Remy asked playfully while Rogue resisted everything in her power to ask him right there and then.
"No. Afraid that Remy might catch a cold and pass it on to others."
"Den Remy be better wid a non-contagious disease," Remy said, walking over to his closet and pulling out a black T-shirt.
Rogue sucked in her breath. Maybe Bobby wasn't lying. Maybe—
Remy yawned and stretched his arms. "Feel so tired….."
Rogue let out a small gasp. Remy never felt tired at this time. Midnight would be too early for him. "Remy…you're never tired at this time."
Remy sleepily nodded in agreement as he put on the shirt "De Danger Room practice took de energy away."
"Yeah but—Remy!!" She cried embarrassed and quickly placed a hand over her eyes when Remy removed the towel that had been wrapped around his waist.
"What chere?" He asked innocently. "Didn't you just see all of Gambit a minute ago?"
"Yeah but not this side," Rogue said sarcastically and carefully uncovered her eyes, when she was sure Remy was fully dressed.
"Well bonne nuit chere. Remy better be gettin to sleep and you should too."
Rogue nodded. "Okay. Sleep for as long as you like—J-Just don't sleep forever."
"Non, don't dink it's Remy's time yet," he said joked while Rogue felt her heart twist. "Besides," he walked upto her and slid his arm around her waist. "Remy won't ever leave his chere."
Rogue gulped and abruptly pulled back. She didn't care if she promised Bobby not to ask him, she was going to ask, indirectly, ofcourse. "R-Remy?"
"Oui chere?"
Rogue took a deep breath and shook her head. "Remy A-Ah…." she began nervously, avoiding eye contact. "Ah know what you've been hidin."
Remy gave her a puzzled look. "Chere….?"
Rogue continued. "It's….one of your most deepest and darkest secret…."
Remy's face darkened. "What do you mean?"
"A-Ah know that you're—T-That you have a…you have a…" Rogue just couldn't go on. "You can guess what Ah'm talkin about. It's somethin you never wanted any one of us ta know."
Remy looked shocked and terrified. "Y-You know about….her?"
'Her?'
Rogue raised her brow. 'So he gives gender to diseases too?' Well knowing this was Remy, he would most probably do that."You know about……Belladonna?" He asked in a barely audible voice.
'Belladonna?'
Rogue was confused for a second. "Oh belladonna!" She realized, remembering the name of the drug Mr. McCoy gave her when her stomach got seriously upset after eating Kitty's home-made pizza. "Yeah Ah know about belladonna, why?"Remy stared at her incredulously. "C-Chere, I-I'm sorry! I-I was goin ta tell you about her! I-I was j-just waitin for de right time. I didn't want you to get hurt. I-I'm sorry! Please believe me it's de truth!"
Rogue could just stare in shock after Remy's confession. He also never ever spoke a whole sentence in first person. Bobby was right……that idiot was right…..Remy was dying….
"Oh mah Gawd…." She slowly backed away, putting a hand over her mouth. "No……"
"Rogue please listen to me!" Remy pleaded. "Rogue I only love you! Always will, even after death, Remy won't forget you."
She wasn't going to cry……Rogue wasn't going to cry—
Rogue let out a muffled cry before tears made their way down her cheeks.
"Chere please don't cry!" Remy begged. "Please Rogue! Everythin's goin to be ok!"
With Rogue crying and Remy pleading her to stop, it was obvious that they never heard Kurt port into the room.
"Gambit!!!! Vhat did you do to her?!" Kurt demanded furiously.
"I-I—" Remy was at a loss of words, "I-I—"
"I knew this day vas going to come!" Kurt said angrily, ready to lunge at Remy. "But I didn't think it vould come so soon."
"Kurt leave him alone! He didn't do anythin!"
Kurt and Remy both turned to Rogue.
"Rogue….? Then vhy are you crying?" Kurt asked confused.
"For no reason!!" Rogue screamed.
Both gave her concerned and puzzled looks.
Rogue began wiping her tears. "A-Ah'm sorry Kurt. Ah'm ok. J-Just could you please go?"
Kurt hesitated.
"Ah'll be ok," she assured. "Go."
"You better be ok," Kurt mumbled, giving Remy a murderous glare before teleporting out.
"Chere I—" Remy was cut off when Rogue embraced him tightly.
"I-It's ok R-Remy," Rogue hiccuped. "A-Ah understand. If Ah were you, A-Ah don't know what Ah would've done."
Remy looked at Rogue as if seeing her for the first time. "You really don't mind me havin a wif—"
"What's the matter with ya swamp rat?!" Rogue burst after fully recovering. "Of course Ah don't mind!"
Remy still looked skeptical. "A-Are you sure? From experience Remy knows dat a femme can either kill or leave if she finds out dat her love has a wif—"
"Remy…" Rogue interrupted. "Ah'm not goin ta leave or kill you just because you're sick."
Remy, obviously took the word 'sick' in a completely different manner. "You really mean it chere?"
"Of course Ah mean it!"
Remy broke into the happiest smile she had ever seen on his face. "You're de most incredible femme in dis whole world!" He exclaimed joyously before sweeping her off her feet and actually tossed her up in the air and caught her.
"Remy! Are you nuts?!" Rogue screamed, not from the shock of getting thrown up in the air. "You're stressin yourself!"
"Can't help it chere!" Remy grinned, setting her down and spinning her around. "Remy feels so alive!"
"So don't stress yourself if you want ta stay that way!" Rogue chided.
Remy stopped and blinked. "Stay dat way?"
"Just go to bed," Rogue said wearily, giving him a push towards the bed.
"Rogue," He turned to her with a serious expression. "Please don't let de others know about—"
"Ah won't. Ah promise."
"J'et aime," he whispered and placed a kiss over her hand.
"Me too," she whispered. "Now go to bed already!"
"Me too?" Remy asked, making a sad face. "Just me too?"
Rogue was never able to answer as sounds of explosions and Ray's laughing erupted from outside the room.
Remy scowled. "Remy's never gonna get any sleep now."
Rogue frowned. "Ah'll take care of it. You just rest," she told him and came out into the passage-way where except Bobby, the new recruits were present.
"Bed-time!" She yelled at the teenagers.
"No way!" Amara protested. "I'm not even sleepy!"
"Yeah!" The others chorused.
"Oh really Princess?" Rogue walked upto Amara. "Are you sure?"
"Yeah," she folded her arms. "Why?"
"Well…." she never noticed Rogue slip off her glove till her palm was on her face. "You look kinda drowsy ta me." Rogue told the unconscious Amara. She turned to the others who were gaping with their mouths open. "Anyone else havin trouble sleepin?"
