Lady Firewing: lol that's what I mean but okay. Don't worry this chapter is just goodness!
Okay so I was thinking over the stuff I had for this story so far, and stuff that I want to do and I realized three things. 1) Rogue and Remy spend way too much time sleeping in this fic! 2) I barely mention Rogue's powers or how she came from the streets, which also leads to a bunch of other things happening. and 3) I wanted to have Tante Mattie, Merci, and Henri appear at least one more time in this fic. So I made this chapter that basically covers those three things. Plus it was an excuse to write ROMY fluff and write out their whole day for once. Now enjoy!
Rogue woke up and yawned. They had arrived at New York state the night before and she was wiped. She looked next to her to see Remy still asleep drooling slightly. Rogue smiled at him, shook her head then went and got in the shower.
While in the shower she thought about how much her life had changed in such short time, and from just meeting one person too.
She went from living in a junk pile and pit pocketing, to living with a bunch of thieves and training to be a master thief, to on the road with the prince of thieves himself running from a bunch of assassins who wanted to kill her because said price of thieves was supposed to marry the princess of assassin's who he didn't love.
In another perspective she had went from being a girl who was alone and had been rejected all her life, to one that had, in a way, a forbidden love.
She got out of the shower and got dressed. When she got out of the bathroom Remy was up and ordering room service.
"Hey Cherie yo' were up early" he said putting the hotel phone down.
"Yeah so?" she shot back.
He laughed and got up to go get his shower. While he was in the shower the room service came by with a tray that had some pancakes, a muffin for each of them and of course a plate of bacon.
She took the tray from him and started eating. Remy came out of the bathroom with a look of hurt on his face.
"Yo' started eatin' without moi Roguey" he said fake pouting.
"Ah told ya don't call me Roguey and yes Ah was hungry" she told him fake glaring.
"Well den Remy guesses he's just gonna 'ave to do dis" he said.
He walked over to her, took the muffin out of her hand, put it on the tray, threw Rogue over his shoulders, brought her over to the beds, threw her on to one, then went over and started eating the bacon.
"Hey what the hell was that fer!" she yelled at him coming to slap him upside the head.
"Dat was fo' startin' to eat while I was in the shower" he told her nodding.
She mumbled something about whatever let's just hurry up and go before returning to the food.
"I wonder where Remy and Rogue are right now, and what dey're doing" Merci said to no one in particular as she sat at the table in the kitchen with Henri watching Tante Mattie cook.
"Where ever dey are I hope de assassins didn't catch dem" Henri said.
"Dey're probably fine, somewhere half way across de country right now eating an ice cream cone" Tante said not looking up from the pot of Gumbo she was stirring.
Merci and Henri murmured in agreement and moved on to other subjects, like how in the world Bella Donna was gonna find someone else she could force to marry her, because no one would ever marry her willingly.
Also where the hell was Bella, since no one had seen her in weeks it seemed.
"Why the hell did you stop?" Rogue demanded as Remy got off the bike.
"'Cause we've been travelling for days and nights on end only stopping fo' restroom breaks and to sleep. I'm bored, hot and cramped, there's a Dairy Queen right there and a park across the street and I'm willing to bet that you've never had ice cream before" he said, taking off his helmet.
"So basically we stopped so ya could introduce meh ta ice cream?" she asked.
"Oui" he said, pulling her off the bike and taking off her helmet, "Now let's go" he said pulling her towards the queen of all ice cream shops.
She groaned good naturedly at his excitement as he bounced hyperly into the store.
"Remy knows it's yo' first time havein' ice cream Cherie but since its Dairy Queen yo' 'ave to get a Blizzard" he told her.
"Rihght and that would be what now?" she asked.
"Dairy Queen's signature specialized treat" he explained.
She just raised an eyebrow at him a nodded. He sighed and pulled her over to the menu and pointed to the part of it that said Blizzard.
"Okay Ah think Ah get it now" she said furrowing her brow.
"It's okay Roguey just get somet'in' off of dat part o' de menu and yo'll be good" he said grinning.
After looking over the menu for a while they got in live. Luckily for them the line was short at the moment so they didn't have to wait long.
"Remy'll 'ave de Oreo Blizzard" he told the girl at the cash register, she frowned slightly at his accent but didn't say anything about it as she placed his order into the computer.
"Ah'll have the Strawberry Cheese Quake" Rogue said uncertainty in her voice.
The cashier took no notice of it just put in the order rambled out a price to Remy and started making one of the ice cream treats as a coworker made the other.
They finished making them and handed them to the young couple. Remy paid then he dragged Rogue across the street, sat her down at a bench and instructed her to start eating her ice cream before it decided to melt.
"Yer strange ya know that rihght?" Rogue said as they sat eating their treats, Rogue was unsurprisingly enjoying hers very muchly so.
"Oui Remy knows but yo' love 'im any ways" he said grinning.
"Ah'm not sure why though" she said rolling her eyes at him.
He laughed at her and watched her finish her ice cream, seeing how he had already ate all of his. She got some on her nose, and without thinking he leaned out and kissed it, falling into unconsciousness shortly after.
He woke up a few minutes later with Rogue sitting over him with a worried look on her face. When she saw that he had regained consciousness her expression changed into relived then to mad.
"Why the hell would ya do that!" she demeaned "Ya know what muh powers are so why would ya try sumthin' so stupid?" she asked tears starting to form in her eyes.
"M' sorry Cherie. Remy wasn't t'inkin'" he said hanging his head guiltily, eyes looking up at her, creating a puppy dog eye effect.
"Ah don't want ta hurt ya" she said tears spilling down her eyes.
Remy made a move to pull her into his arms to comfort her, but she pulled away and refused to come any closer to him. He sighed and got up and followed her back to the motor cycle.
He noticed that while they were riding she didn't hold on to him as tightly, and when they got a two bed hotel room she instantly went to the opposite bed that he was in. And all he could think was that he screwed up big time and he didn't know how to fix it.
Later that night Remy couldn't sleep, and at that moment he really didn't care how pissed Rogue was at him he just wanted to get her to stop being distant to him, and if that meant crawling into her bed and having her kill him then so be it.
So that's what he did. He crawled out of the bed he was in and into hers. He slipped beneath the covers and wrapped his arms around her waist and buried his nose in her hair.
She turned around in his arms so her face was in his chest and looked up at him, while he turned to look down at her to meet her eyes.
"Remy Ah don't want ta hurt ya" she told him.
"Yo're not gonna 'urt moi" he said.
"Fihne Ah don't want ta absorb ya" she said, "Before Ah met ya Ah didn't care. Ah didn't want ta hurt anyone, but if Ah accidently absorbed a little bit of sumone lihke Ah did with ya taday Ah didn't care, but when Ah saw ya lying there and Ah had yer thought's goin' through muh head Ah thought Ah killed ya" she confessed.
"I'm fine Rogue" he told her "I promise I won't ever do dat again though if yo' just stop being distant with moi."
"Okay" she agreed.
He kissed the top of her head, and they both drifted off to dreamland safe in each other's arms.
