Chapter 14

For the first time in Rogue's life she, not only wasn't completely covered, but was actually wearing lingerie. Dark purple strapless bra and lacey panties, connected together with see-through dark green gauze, she also wore a cape made of the same green gauze.

She stood in the center of her bedroom waiting. After a few moments the wait was over, as the door was silently pulled open and then shut again. The man who approached was completely silent just like he'd been months ago when he used to sneak into her room at night. But to Rogue his silence was as much a giveaway as to his identity as if he'd spoke.

Rogue didn't turn around to face him, her only move was to send a fleeting provocative smile over her shoulder as he approached. His hungry red eyes seemed to devour her smile, so that he couldn't have looked more like a predator if he'd been licking his lips.

And then he was upon her. His strong arms encasing her from behind. His hands started at her breasts rubbing, squeezing, caressing, all the while being irresistibly gentle. The touch caused Rogue to gasp softly.

Then his hands separated one working its way down to stroke her naked hips. The other sliding smoothly over her chest towards her throat, the most vulnerable place of all.

His fingers wrapped around her neck, savoring the smoothness of her ivory skin, before his hand tilted her chin upwards so her gaze met his. She raised her arms over her head and behind her to wrap them around his neck, while her eyes continued to gaze into his as though beseeching him to stay with her forever.

He leaned closer, closing the distance between their equally hungry lips. The kiss was light and chaste at first, but growing in intensity, they both kissed passionately, urgently, as though that kiss was the only thing that mattered, and at this moment it was.

Rogue woke suddenly still panting slightly from the vivid dream. She turned her face half expecting to see Remy sleeping with her. But no she was alone in her bed. In her regular pajamas no fancy capes or gauze. She made a mental note to get an outfit like that, someday, maybe for Remy's birthday.

She got out of bed and looked at her alarm clock, green neon numbers told her it was 3:30 AM not even light out, but for some reason she felt wide awake. She headed to her bathroom to take a shower.

It just felt wrong to put her pajamas on again, after her shower, but she also was too lazy to get completely dressed, she decided to just put on her usual black miniskirt and a dark green tank top over regular undergarments, before going downstairs to get a late night snack. Her reasoning, there was probably no one downstairs to get hurt by her poisonous skin.

But as she approached the kitchen she saw a light shining through the door. She hoped it wasn't Sabertooth skulking around in there. Rogue was confident she could take on Sabertooth, she'd done it once before, true she'd been under Mesmero's mind control at the time, but it was still her body, her skin.

Still she wasn't sure she wanted to eat her midnight snack in the presence of Sabertooth, whom she still harbored a grudge towards from when he'd attacked her, Kitty, and Evan, all the way back close to the time she'd just joined the x-men.

She walked into the kitchen expecting to see Sabertooth, instead she was greeted with the pleasant sight of Gambit sitting at the table a plate of French fries in front of him.

"Bonjour chere" he greeted her in slight surprise. "Hey" she said taking the seat across from him. Suddenly remembering her dream, Rogue looked down quickly to hide a blush. "You ok chere?" he asked in concern.

"I'm fine Remy. I love you. I was just remembering a dream I had." "Je t'aime aussi chere" he said grinning, then continued, "and was this dream about moi?" she looked up again shocked, "what? How did you know?" His grin widened, "I just figured, what else would chere dream about?"

She tried her best to give him her famous death glare but judging from the fact that his grin only got bigger she hadn't been successful. "Fine it was about you, but ah sure as hell ain't gonna tell you it."

"Why?" he whined, with a pout that Rogue usually could never resist. After around three solid minuets of whining on his part, and of stony unaffected resistance on hers, he finally gave up. "Fine chere you win, at least tell me if it was a good dream!" Rogue thought for a moment before nodding, "yeah, it was pretty good."

He wordlessly surveyed her a few seconds then reached into his pocket and pulled out the power-inhibiter. Rogue crossed her arms over her chest, "seriously! Do you carry that thing around with you everywhere?" she demanded.

He grinned, "Only when I might need it, chere." Twirling the inhibiter around one finger, he continued, now with a an irresistibly seductive smile, "if you tell me you're dream I bet I came make it come true."

"Not a chance" she said amusedly, but leaned across the table anyway, allowing him to snap the collar around her neck.

Later.

Rogue lolled on the bed comfortably waiting for Gambit to return. They'd decided to watch a movie in his room and maybe do some other pleasurable activities. But at the last minuet Gambit had decided that it would be a travesty to go ahead with their plans without ice cream. So he'd dashed off to get some from the kitchen, promising a speedy return.

Rogue didn't mind she'd never been more comfortable in her life, she was even seriously considering telling Remy her dream and letting him recreate it.

Rogue heard someone approaching, that was fast she thought in surprise, Remy had only left like twenty seconds ago. They stopped right outside the open bedroom door, she waited, but he didn't come in. "Remy?" she called before rolling over to face the open door expecting to see Remy standing there, instead she was met with the unpleasant sight of Victor Creed.

AN.
