Remy parked his motorcycle next to Scott's Lamborghini and cut the engine. Rogue got off first and then Remy followed. They made their way to the front hall where they halted by Logan.
"Hey darlin'. Have you been cryin'?" He stopped to look at Gambit. " What did you do to her? You better tell me quick. I'm not one for patience." Taking the threat Remy reached into his coat and pulled out a card. "No powers Swamp rat."
"Ya know old man, Gambit be an tres bien fighter." With that last comment both men jumped at each other. Because of his weight, Logan had the upper hand and forced Gambit to fly back into the wall. Gambit copied his move jumped on him, flying them both into the rec room, barely missing the pool table.
"Stop it you two!" Rogue said. Her words had no effect on the men who were now totally focused on winning the battle. Logan pulled back his arm and punched Gambit in the jaw, sending him back onto the couch. "Thought you could fight." Logan taunted. Remy quickly squatted and swept his leg at Logan's feet causing him to fall and land on the coffee table which was now beyond repair.
"I said Stop. Scott! Hank! Somebody please get down here!" Rogue tried again, but in vain.
Logan got up and the two men circled each other. "Are you two gonna stop now or what. 'Cause this is really childish." Again, the two battling men ignored her. Remy jumped in the air and kicked Logan in the solar plexus. Winded, but still able he punched Gambit in the ribs. Logan began to advance again but was stopped by a hand on his arm. He pulled away and continued toward the rising Gambit. When he reached Gambit he straddled him and drew his arm back. Before his fist could connect with Gambit's face somebody knocked him off with a kick to the head. "WHAT IN THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING? AM AH THE ONLY SANE PERSON IN HERE?" Rogue yelled. Both men slowly got up a looked at her. "Ah cain't believe you two. Ya'll are acting like a bunch of 10 year olds. Ya betta be glad Scott didn't wake up and find out ya'll were doing."
"Yes, I think that would be best if he not find out. By the end of tomorrow I want that coffee table to be in one piece. I don't care how much it costs. Do it. Logan, Remy, I'm sure the professor would like to meet with you in the morning. Oh, and I'll be sure not to tell Scott." With that Scott turned around and left the room.
Remy turned to Rogue and took a step toward her and started to speak but was interrupted "No Remy, I don't want to hear it. Not from you or Logan. Just leave me alone." With that said she turned around and left.
"It ain't over Gumbo."
~!*!*!*!*!*!~
"Ah cain't believe it. Why would they do something so stupid? Why don't they get along?" Rogue questioned.
"I don't know, but maybe Logan feels that Remy is a threat to his little sister. Even I don't want him around you. We can't trust him. We know nothing about him." Scott answered. He and Rogue were in the kitchen drinking coffee at 7:45 the next morning. Scott had questioned her about last night activities and what caused them.
"That's not fair and ya know it. Ya didn't know anything about me when Ah arrived!"
"It sounds like you're a little biased. Maybe there is more than friendship between you and Gambit."
"So what if there is? Nothin' can come of it, so why are ya worried? He's probably not truly interested anyway."
"You've fallen for him haven't you Rogue. I may see through ruby glasses, but I'm not blind. Please be careful, I don't want to see you hurt." He got up and walked over to Rogue and patted her on the shoulder and left to prepare for his next class.
Even Scott sees it. Ya used to be so good at hiding your feelin's. Why cain't ya now?
~!*!*!*!*!*!~
"You've been gone a long time Logan. Rogue isn't the young girl you met on the road. She's a woman now and she is fully capable of handling her own affairs." Storm told Logan. "It's not up to you to tell her who she can and can not go out with."
"I never said that. I just don't want him or any grimy guy messin' with her. Ya know he's got to be. Rogue can't touch anybody. What can a guy get out of that. And don't try and tell me that his motives are noble. I'm a guy. He's doin' it for the chase and the glory. He don't care about Rogue, just himself."
"I think you're wrong. Remy is my friend and I've known him for a while. He would not hurt Rogue for his own benefit. Why don't you get to know him before you judge him like that."
"I ain't judgin' him 'Ro. I just don't like him or his attitude. I don't want him hurtin' Rogue."
"Trust me. Remy would never intentionally hurt her. Come on. You've got an appointment with the Professor."
~!*!*!*!*!*!~
"Okay class, today we are going to learn about Van Gogh. What can you tell me about him?" Rogue was now in her last class of the day. Intermediate Art.
"Was he the guy on Scooby Doo?" Someone from the back said.
A smile appeared on Rogue's face. "Nice try but no. Anybody else?" She questioned again.
"Didn't he cut off his own ear?" Julie stated.
"Yes. As gross as it sounds, he did. Have any of you seen Starry Night? He painted that. And he painted Sun Flower. Now, can anyone tell me what his style of painting was called?"
~!*!*!*!*!*!~
"Ah, Charles. It has been a while since you put me in my plastic prison. But it will not hold me forever, even the great city of Rome fell to rubble. You once taught a young German boy how to survive in a new world. Without you, he would be nothing but a peasant in modern society. You are naïve, Charles. To think that I, the great Magneto, will sit in my prison and watch my people fall. I will use all that you have taught me and more. I am no common enemy. And I will not let you stand in my way. I will have my way for my people. It matters not to me if you are by my side or not.
A/N: So what do you think? Tell me. If ya don't like my writing tell me and I'll stop. Feedback is important!
