It was always the same story, between the two. Rogue was the head strong one, while Remy LeBeau was the stubborn one. These two were alike in some ways, but at the same time, they were as different as night and day. Lately it seemed like they were always arguing about one thing or another.

Today was no exception. For today Remy looked at a pretty blonde for far too long, and Rogue didn't appreciate it one bit. So she let him know in no uncertain terms that she wasn't going to go for it.

"Is that how things are going to be once we're married?"

"Rogue, I didn't mean nothing by that. Remy was just looking."

"Looking first, then what? Cheating!"

"You know that I'd never cheat on you petite."

"Whatever. If you want to look at other women, fine then do what you want to do. You do anyway. I'm not going to sit here and baby sit a grown man."

"Let's get one thing straight Rogue, I don't need no babysitter. How many times do I have to tell you, that you're the only woman for me? You have this weird idea that I'll leave you. To be honest with you, if you keep this up, Remy just might."

"Really? Well Remy, you know what? I don't have to sit around and wait for you to leave. Especially if I do the walking first!"

"I'm tired of listening to this same old song!"

"Well buddy you don't have to worry anymore, because this song has just ended. It's over!!"

Rogue turned around abruptly, and stormed out of the room angrily. She didn't even look back as Remy threw a small porcelain vase directly behind her.

"Rogue, don't let the door hit you on your way out! That butt of yours has always been on the big side anyway!"

"You rotten, low life, two timing son of a bit…"

"Bitch! Was that what you were going to call me? You of all people would know all about bitches! Wouldn't you?"

"Oh!!!!"

With that Rogue stormed down the hallway, and Remy followed right behind her trying to keep his distance. He stopped at Logan's door, and knocked on the door as hard as he could.

"Want to go out for a drink?" Remy stated as calmly as he could.

"Do I like I'm your girlfriend?"

"Well as it seems, I don't have one at the moment."

"Then I think you came to the wrong door bub. I think you should go ask Storm or Jubes. My boat just don't float that way, if you know what I mean."

"Tempting offer, but no thanks."

"Do you want me to hurt you Cajun?"

"Sorry Logan, that was a really bad joke. Seriously I'm not making any passes at you. I just want to hang out, get drunk, and hopefully find some slut to take home tonight."

"I guess you two really broke up for good this time."

"Yeah we did. So can we go get drunk or what?"

"Well you've never heard me turn down a drink before have you? Let me grab my jacket, and then we can roll on out of here."

Logan took Scott's bike, while Remy took his. They drove into the night, until Logan stopped at Harry's Bar. They walked in, steely eyes staring in their direction. Logan met every threatening glare, and held it until he could no longer sense a threat. They walked up to the bar and sat down.

The bartender looked at the two men and smiled.

"Logan. Remy. Can I get you two anything to drink?"

"Beer." The bartender already had his beer ready, so he just slid the beer to Logan.

"Remy, what's your poison?"

"Tequila, with the worm in it."

"You really going to drink that with the worm in it Remy?"

"Yeah. Logan, don't tell me that you haven't tried this yet?"

"No!!"

"Come on."

"Look I only drink beer. You were the one who wanted to get drunk, you drink it."

"Will do."

"Want to talk about it?"

"What's there to talk about? Rogue thinks that I'm cheating on her."

"Why would she think something like that?"

"Why wouldn't she?"

"Have you?"

"Hell no! Do you think I'm stupid man! I love her man."

"Did you tell her that?"

"Why should I, she wouldn't believe me anyway."

"You can at least try!"

"Don't you think that I've already tried that? I have given that woman everything I could possibly give. What else does she want? My blood. Why can't I be happy for once in my life? Scott's happy with Jean. You've got Cecilia. Jubes has Hank. Who do I get, a woman suffering from a permanent case of P.M.S."

"Oh. I wouldn't go around saying that too loudly buddy. You know women are already touchy about that subject."

"That's just my point! She's touchy about every little thing. She wants to know what I eat, drink, where I sleep! I'm sick and tired of having to answer to her, as if she was my mother instead of my girl. You know Storm has the right idea."

"What idea would that be."

"Staying single. She doesn't have to worry about her boyfriend checking up on her, or nothing like that. I should just follow her lead!"

"Look man, do you really think that Ro has it made? Ro chooses to be single, but she's a very lonely woman. Sometimes at night, I can hear her crying. It tears me apart man, but being single was her choice. Do you honestly want to feel the same way that she does? Is it really worth it?"

"I don't know."

"Then I'd suggest you find out. Rogue isn't a woman that you can keep waiting. You have a choice to make. You can either go back home and kiss a lot of ass."

"Please don't make any comments regarding her butt. I kind of let it slip that hers was rather big."

"Aw naw, tell me you didn't?"

"Yep."

"Anyway you can go home, or you can break it to her gently. I'd suggest that you'd do it very gently, because if I hear otherwise."

"Yeah I know, I know."

"I'm just letting you know that I'm very protective of all the ladies."

"Tell me about it. Poor Cece."

They sat in silence, and as the night wore on. Soon Logan found himself dragging a very drunk Remy LeBeau out of the bar, when it closed for the night. As soon as they got home, Logan dragged Remy to the first couch he could. He looked at the man, and immediately felt sorry for the young man.

"This too shall pass." He said, as he walked off to his room.
