Rogue was woken up by an explosion the next morning. She threw off her covers and ran towards her bedroom door. When she flung it back and stared down the hallway, she saw multipule thieves had come out of their room to investigate the noise.

"Looks like Remy's at it again," one of them said.

"Wonder who pissed him off dis time?" another said.

Rogue frowned when listening to these thieves who didn't seem to be aware of her. She was confused at why they were acting so casually when it came to the explosion. When she heard Remy's name added in there, she felt herself begin to make her way towards the explosion.

"Bonne matin, chérie," came Remy's voice from behind her.

Rogue near jumped out of her skin at his words. She grabbed at her heart as she turned to face him.

"Remy? What do ya think y' doin'?" she demanded to know, not realising that she had gained the attention off many other thieves.

Remy simply shrugged one shoulder as he glanced down at her.

"Same as you. Wonderin' what the boom was," he said, glancing in the direction of the explosion.

He saw the other thieves looking at him a bit baffled. But they had the good sense not to question it and just return to their bed.

"Ah thought, that explosion, you were…" Rogue trailed off, unsure what she thought.

"Oui," Remy questioned, returning his attention to her.

"Ah, never mind," Rogue said, her eyes falling to glance down at his bare chest.

Rogue's cheeks became pale and she felt heat rise up her neck as she realised Remy was stood before her in nothing but pj bottoms.

"Like what y' see?" Remy asked her, snapping her out of her staring.

The colour spread from her neck into her cheeks this time and Rogue felt all her defencive go up and she snapped: "Put a shirt on, would ya!" before entering her door and slamming the door in a smirking Remy's face.
