"Non."

"Please?"

"Non."

"Come on-"

"Non."

"I really want-"

"Not happening Pyromaniac."

"It's just one pet." Pyro had his hands clasped in front of him and his lower lip stuck out in a pout with just the tiniest beginning of tears in the corners of his eyes. John was actually really good at getting his way, but not with Gambit. He could see straight through his acting.

"Remy not smuggling no 'roos from your homeland. And before ya ask, no' stealin' from the zoo either."

Pyro's lower lip began to wobble and Remy heaved a heavy sigh.

"Will you take care of it?"

Pyro began to bob his head up and down in rapid fashion, reminding Remy oddly of those old baseball bobble head things.

"Promise?"

"I promise Remy!"

"Fine…."

Pyro just about screamed and jumped at him, wrapping his arms around Gambit's neck and planting a sloppy kiss on his cheek.

"You're the best Rem!" Pyro slowly let go of his friend and grinned up at him. "Thanks Remy."

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever Johnny, the things I do for you..." Gambit sighed once more and shook his head in disbelief at himself.

"You know you love me!"

"Yeah...yeah I do."
