Family Ties
Lady Starlight so kiss my ass
Chapter Twenty – Family.
The next morning Rogue was up and well. It would have looked like nothing had happened if it wasn't for the fact that she had bits of memories floating around her head. The problem was though that she couldn't figure them out. It was like a bunch of different pictures flashing through her mind in no particular order. There were so many different memories, but Rogue couldn't make heads or tails of them.
And after lunch with the other X-Men the Professor called her Remy and Kurt into his office. When Rogue and Kurt had wondered about it Remy had looked distracted. As if he knew something they hadn't.
"What the hell do you mean?" Kurt demanded. The horror making him loose the innocence he always had.
"Mah mother? Yah crazy old man." Rogue hissed glaring at Xavier. "Ah have her memories in mah head old man. If she was mah mother dat make Logan mah… Oh mah god." Xavier had handed her the print outs in the middle of her rant.
"Hank ran them more then once. There is no mistake in those."
Rogue glared at the old man heatedly as Kurt looked on horrified. What right did this man have to just come up and tell them something like this?
"You were talking in your sleep Rogue. It was Mystique's voice though. Telling someone about her daughter and son." Hank said. "You woke up once and yelled at Logan, in French I might add. About Blue and White. I ran some tests, on everyone in the school, and yours and Kurts came out."
"So what? Yah jus' HAD tah tell us? Ah know Ah was adopted but Ah nevah wanted tah find out mah biological mother was a homicidal bitch." Her despair made her accent thicker and nobody bothered to correct her language.
"It was assumed that you would want to know." Xavier said calmly.
"Well, yah assumed wrong. Ah have a family at home. Ah don't need tah know dat mah teacher is mah father." Rogue glared and hissed when the door opened again. Logan walked in and leaned up against the wall, opposite her.
"I never knew she was pregnant, alright? There was some serious shit in her life. Didn't want to get involved in that. Only found out after she called me to tell me that they bastard took them away." Logan looked distracted, lost in memory. "Never hated anyone more. Stripes, Blue, I don't expect to be your father. I know yah both have family's at home."
Rogue looked at her teacher and sighed. She had only known the man for four months, but already he had had an impact on her life. The fact that he even volunteered to let her absorb her was counted. "You would have wanted us." Rogue said softly and was amused by the scoff.
"Wouldn't have known what to do Stripes."
"Yah can try." Something in her needed to let the man have a chance. "Marius will always be mah father. He took meh in and raised meh with Belle and Julien. Its because of him dat Ah met de boys." Rogue paused thinking. "But Ah'm eighteen. Ah'm allowed tah wonder about mah biological family. And apparently Ah have a twin brother. Dats a plus, right?"
Kurt looked at Rogue at that. He hadn't thought of it that way. "You're right. I'm not an only child anymore."
At Kurt's huge grin Rogue paled. She remembered all to well Julien's over protectiveness. With a gulp she attained a 'deer caught in headlights' look. "You can have de chance." Rogue all the sudden looked unsure. "If you want it you know…" She trailed of and was slightly relieved when Logan gave what passed for a smile.
"I still expect both of yah in DR at five Stripes." And Rogue laughed.
"Wouldn' expect anything else."
Now, to say things went smoothly from there that they became one happy family would muchly disgust Mystique, and be untrue. The shape-shifter had seen the three of them out, around Bayville. She had heard them talking and it had been obvious that they were all trying.
The other X-Men didn't know about the connection but they all saw the difference. The fact that Logan threatened Remy more often was the most obvious. Though neither teen used the word 'father' when talking to or about Logan, Kurt had more then once called Rogue his sister. They had spent a week trying to figure out who was older.
They still didn't know.
"June 28th," Rogue said looking through Mystiques memories. It was early December and they were sitting in the kitchen
"How do you know for sure?" Kurt asked. "I mean, what if you were born earlier?" Rogue smiled at her LITTLE brother and shrugged.
"Ah don't know. But Ah remember de night of de fire. Ah had been happy because it was supposed to be my birthday. Plus, Mother dearest," the name was loaded with sarcasm. "Has that date marked in her memories. So it couldn't just be a accident."
"Hey," Tabby said, poking her head into the kitchen. "I'm going out alright?"
"Make sure to use protection when you and Petey get it on." Kurt's face was one of pure disgust and he shuddered. Tabitha smirked and winked.
"You're gunna have to tell me when you and Remy finally use that nightie." Rogue's face went red and Kurt's blank as Tabby bounced out of the room.
"I'll kill him." And Kurt was gone. Rogue rolled her eyes and knew for a fact that both he and Logan would have to get in line.
"Who's Blue going to kill, kid?" Logan asked.
"You know, Ah do like Stripes better."
A look passed Logan's face almost too quickly for Rogue to read. But she had read it. And cursed herself.
"Ah hate people thinking of mah as a kid. It took a hell ass long time to get ride of dat image in N'Awleans. Sorry Logan. It just doesn't sit well."
Logan looked at Rogue and realized she was as uncomfortable as he felt. He ran an affectionate hand through her hair and smiled.
"Sorry Stripes."
Rogue leaned up and kissed his cheek. The contact was too fleeting for her powers to detect. "No prob, dad." And she disappeared, leaving a bewildered Wolverine standing completely still in the kitchen.
Jamie walked in a few minutes later and stared at Logan. He waved a hand in front of the wolf's face. Then he stood on the table to poke the older man. When he got no response he smirked.
"Hey Bobby!" He yelled out. "Logan's a stone statue!" The Iceboy rushed into the scene and with a wicked grin Jamie took off. Leaving Bobby to freeze Logans, er, southern reigns. The ice shocked him out of his statue state and he took off after Bobby with a vengeance.
Jamie didn't stop laughing till DR, where he became too sore to laugh.
Remy found him soon after and asked the boy to come with him. "Remy needs to get a present for Roguie. He dun know what to get though." Remy shook his head in disbelief. "Remy never have dis problem before Jamie. Shopping fer Roguie always be easy."
"She was never your girlfriend before Remy." Remy nodded his head and drove out of the Mansion grounds in Rogue's jeep.
"Nope, it was easy den."
"Then stop thinking of her as your girlfriend. Just buy something you know your best friend would like."
"But den dat gets confusing!" Remy whined and Jamie looked amused.
"But they're one and the same Remy." Remy looked at Jamie and shook his head.
"What if she dun like it?"
"Have you ever had this problem before?"
"NOOOOOOO!" Jamie laughed and shook his head.
"That's because you always bought for your best friend. You know her Remy. You know what she likes. Just stop worrying."
People around the mall looked amused at the eight year old boy consoling the eighteen year old man. Remy looked around hopelessly and figured he had to start some where.
The two males spent the next two hours looking for Rogue's present. Remy left the store disheartened. What the hell was he going to get her?
Remy made his way up to the students rooms, a hallway filled with rooms. The boys on the right and females on the left. He walked into Rogue's room and pouted cutely at her. He jumped on her bed and read the book over her shoulder.
"What do yah want fer Christmas Roguie?" He asked and his girlfriend looked at him strangely.
"Yah've never asked dat before."
"Remy knows," Remy continued to pout as Rogue stared at him. "He jus' dun know no more!"
Rogue laughed at his exasperated look and kissed his cheek. "Ya'll think of somethin' Rems. Ya always do."
There were twenty days till Christmas. That was NOT what he wanted to hear!
Rogue rolled her eyes at the puppy dog look and rested her head on his chest before going back to her book. It was another twist on Vampires. The 'Dark' series was written by Christine Feehan and they were really addicting.
"Have fun with Jamie?" Rogue asked putting her book down.
"Yeah, know what Remy's getting dat kid. Yo' on de ot'er hand cherie… Remy's got no clue. You could give him a hint you know."
Remy rolled her eyes and got off her bed. Remy's eyes glued to her ass. Something else caught his eye though and before Rogue could put on her duster he dragged her back to him.
"Whats dis?" Remy asked, pulling up her shirt.
"Jeez Rems. Ya wanted tah undress meh so bad all yah had tah do was ask sugah." Rogue teased. Inwardly flinching. She had wondered why he hadn't questioned it before. Or if he just hadn't noticed the fact that she never left her back uncovered.
Remy glared at his girlfriend, daring her to tease him. The thought of her naked was far more appealing then what he wanted to know. But his thoughts were distracted. It was the first time he had dated a girl for any length of time with out getting into her pants. And he really wanted in-
Rogue noticed where Remy's thoughts were going and punched him. It shocked him and Rogue was almost able to get away.
"Roguie, why you do dat?"
"Cuz yah were droolin sugah."
"Not DAT! Dis!" Remy said, his fingers tracing the wolf's head on her back, then the flaming card. Rogue tore away and pulled her shirt down. Staring at the ground all the while. Remy waited patiently and Rogue looked back up, meeting his eyes.
"Being an Assassin, it's a lot different from being a Thief Rems. Yah just don't steal from dose who can afford it. Yah kill people." Rogue looked down again and sighed. "It got to be too much. Ah wanted tah forget so bad." Rogue shrugged. "Seemed like de t'ing tah do. Ah was able to move on."
She hadn't realized he had moved until she felt his strong arms around her. Rogue leaned back into his chest.
"Yo' shoulda told Remy cher. He'd help, yah know dat."
"You know Ah hate soundin' like a whinny teenager Remy."
"Yo' can whine tah Remy as much as yah like amour." Remy spoke honestly. He leaned down and kissed her gently.
Kitty phased in, raised an eyebrow and walked back out, a smirk playing on her face.
"They are like SO cute!" Kitty gushed to Amara in Magma's and Wolfsbane's room. Jubilee raised an eyebrow and sat back on Rahne's bed.
"What did they do now girl?"
"It's totally how they look. So adorable and in love. I like walked in on them kissing." Before anyone could say anything she held her hand up. "It wasn't like the gross groping on TV. I like totally would have gagged if it had been."
"Do tell," Amara said eagerly.
XxXxX
It was the last week of school and Rogue deducted that the Gym teacher, Mr. Bonkes was insane. Who in their fucking right mind would make a group of teenagers SWIM in December?
Rogue told this to Remy, Wanda and Pietro before smirking. "At least Ah have a reason. Idiot teacher can't argue with the greatest telepath mind in de world."
"He'll try," Remy warned. And he did.
When they arrived in Gym class that day she handed the teacher the note and smirked at the look on Bonkes face. She REALLY hated the old pervert.
"Nah uh, Ah ain't getting' in dat dirty ol' pool M'sieu."
"How do I know this note is real?" Bonkes asked snidely.
"Yah can call him if yah like homme. But yo' and Ah both know yah'd rather not be made a fool of."
Bonkes had stormed off, leaving a smirking Rogue, snickering Wanda and Remy and a laughing Pietro and John.
"Damn I wish Mystique would do something like that for me." Rogue tensed when Wanda spoke. Remy looked at her briefly. "That old man freaks me out!"
"Sheila, just hex the poor bastard. Probably be the most action he ever get." John said cockily.
Pietro glared at his sisters boyfriend. "WhydoIhaveafeelingthatToadwillturnoutlikeBonkes?"(1)
"Cuz Toad's weird Petey," Rogue said and leant back with another Vampire book while her friends gathered around their teacher.
Rogue read awhile before she heard splashing. Her attention turned to the pool and she shuddered. It was disgusting. There were far to many people in it. Her eyes searched out Remy and found him glaring at the disgusting water.
They had been spoilt.
Rogue's mouth dropped when her boyfriends shirt came off. "WOOHOO GO REMY!" She yelled and laughed when Remy smirked and winked her way.
'Lean, tan and really great abs,' Rogue thought. That was the stuff dreams were made of.
When her teacher told her to shut up she turned back to the book. Though not before seeing the disgust on her friends faces when they got into the pool.
OoOTBCOoO

Alara - Yeah, I'm Canadian and know no other slang then what i use...though i say Bloody Hell a lot more then Fuck You lately. (I mean no offense if you dont like the language.) The lil Remy and Roguie was one of the sceens I wanted from the bigging. You have my Premission to use the Rogue Assasin stwist as long as you tell me what Story it is so that I can read it and be proud you liked the idea:D The "They Go Back and The X-Men Flip" ...am I really that obvious? sigh...I didnt want to be... but yes that will be an importand part. how will Jamie except it huh:D
Mandy - I emailed you back but your review was really strange so I havwe to tell everyone:D She reviewed me through Email...I thought it was Kat(who still needs to send me back my chapters!)
Jezzjamer - I'm glad you like my story. I was hoping it would be original for people. You're going out with you're best friend huh? Can't say that will ever happen to me...all my best friends are girls and they all right on FF, though for differnt catergory's. Just some pointless trivia for you. I loved how Remy and Marie meet and it made the fountain their memoral hangout. I didnt go to much into their powers because everyone already knows what their powers are but I needed to bring them out somehow I love Jamie and think he is too sweet. I have plans for him ...MWAHAHAHA... unfortunatly I cant really say that they are evil plans. sigh.
Halo's Horns - Golly gee batman, I loved that phrase. I love Wolvie and though it screws up a lot of emotional balance it was a nice twist. Lets see how the BlueBitch as a mom turns out huh...though i dont hate her NEARLY as much as I used to. Logan didnt know Mystique was pregnant as explained in this chapter. Had he of he would have stayed with Raven and forced her to give up working for Buckethead. The Ro/Kurt sibling thing was something I am so completely stuck on at the moment.
RoguesHeart - 3 cheers for drama! Hip hip HORAY! ... anyone? ...Ok tough crowd. Why on earth would you want to hurt Wolvie? What makes you think you stood a chance against the increadable Wolverine?
Enchantedlight - Updated...though unfortunatly it wasnt that soon.
Psychopyro16 - The best really? Well Then i'm honored you think so. 2: 13? Shit i cant stay up that late now that schools back in. It exhausts me.
Lady Godiva - I hate Belle and like Marius to. I adore ready romy. Logan didnt no so no need to call out the navy...though I dont think even them can take out WolfMan.
Emil13 - Like a drug you say? Well that makes sence as I have beentold it was addicting. here is more. I agree Romy needs more action but I'm learning how to right fluff as I go. Don't loose your job because you took the time to review. i wouldnt want to be responsible for that.
Allimba - Writing on...the only time I stop is when I'm called to dinner or forcefully made to do my homework.
Sleepy26 - Yeah...I'm addicted to cliffhangers. I'm surprised their havent been more in this story.
Ishandahalf - I had been waiting for your review! It seemedlike forever before I got another one:D ONe can never have enough problems... it just means it is our sworn duty to fix them all...Poor Rogue i agree. And think about Marius and Julien Rogue's their beloved daughter and precious sister(BELLA CAN ROT IN HELL) poor them to.
Dark Wolf Girl15 - There probably is a reason she is the way she is. I used to dispise her and wanted to make her look like a horible bitch buit i dont think that is how she's going to turn out in this..but that wont happen for a REALLY long time.
Southern Goth Gal - I loved the Twins and Wolvie as dad as well. One of my favorite plot twists. Romy, Jonda, Lancitty are three of my favorite couples.
Roguechere - Unfolding is happening!
AnimeSiren - I loved it to.
Sweety8587 - Johnny is really adorable. Kurt takes after...well...I guess in his case it was more of 'how he was rased rather then who gave him life' kinda thing. Thoughg Kurt does have it in him to be creul as we will see... Unfortunatly I havent even BEGUN to write the FULL family reunion.
Chica De Los Ojos Cafe - I will give you a hint. You will have to figure out what it means. His Name Is Adrian.Goodday.
Authors Rambles – You know what I just found out? I am on C2! I just realized that cuz I was uber board and looked at a couple of them. That was so cool. Ones called A Rogue's Life and the other is a ROMY thing. I just felt like pointing that out. And all of you who want Remy/Rogue's relationship rubbed in Belle's face just hold on ok. I have plans for her and it will be fun. At the moment I am in the middle of chapter 29(can't seem to finish it) and have gone back to look over the next 8 chapters. Making sure they are how I want them. So this will have to tide you over till next time.
I have a big favour to ask. Any one who is a Harry Potter fan and has read the fifth book can help me. Actually any HP Fan can hel. I'm writting a new story and need a new name for the DA I refuse to have the old man take credit for Harrys' work. I have a few Ideas and any sugesstions will be taken into acount.
