Chapter 5: Her Cover...
Gambit stepped between them. "Cool it, Shades."
Wolverine nudged Storm and whispered, "I like this kid; he's got my kinda personality."
Gambit pushed Scott back a step to emphasize his point. "Gambit trick de Chere.we had a bit o' a quarrel and Gambit proved hisself with de call."
Scott looked over Gambit's shoulder at Rogue. "Is this true, Rogue?"
"Well, uh, yea, Scott. Ah guess he just got past meh."
He iced his gaze. "You have an extra session tomorrow. 6am. What woulda happened if-"
Storm cut him off. "Scott. There was no 'if.' Let us be thankful for that. Now let us go to bed. I will give proper introductions in the morning. It has been a long day."
Rogue was silently fuming at her undeserved punishment. / But it's bettuh than the truth, gal. / She followed Remy and the others up the stairs to the dormitory hall. She got as close as she could to Gambit without touching him. "Ah'm lockin mah door tonight.just so ya know."
He stopped to face her and a smile spread slowly across his face. "Chere, dere ain't nuttin dat c'n keep dis Cajun outta no where."
He felt a piece of cold metal slide across his shoulder near his neck.
Logan's keen ears heard him. A small smile and a look of warning in those feral dark blue eyes made Gambit decide not to go through with his threat.for tonight at least.
Wolverine let the kids go on ahead of them and held back Storm. "'Ro, I don't trust Gumbo there. I'm gonna watch her room tonight."
