Intercom

'Thoughts'
*************************************************************
The young man, 27 or so, stood at the street corner, taking a puff of smoke on his cigarette every so often.

It was dark out and cold. Snowflakes start to fall one at a time. The street was not a very welcoming sight. The building behind the man looked like it was about to fall any minute.

The young man was waiting for someone to be here for a reason, he was here to...

"Remy, nice ta see ya again."

Remy turned around and saw the man that he was waiting for, Wolverine. He looked so pathetic, like he didn't want to live anymore.

"Mon ami, I came to take back home, to de mansion."

"HA! HA! HA! Cajun why did you come all the way over to Canada to take me home? I thought you would come all this way to kill me for what I had done to her."

"I should be, be when I t'ink bout it its really Sinister dat I should be trying to kill."

"Rogue, Chere, where have you been all day? Gambit be worried bout you!"

"Ah Have no time ta explain, Cajun. Ah am trying ta find Logan cause he is supposed to be helpin' me with my fightin, incase our powers have been deactivated."

"But chere, what about our date tonight!?!"

"That was tonight? Oh ah am so sorry Remy. Can ah take a..."

"Raincheck?"

"Ya."

"Chere, dis be da 5th time you been takin rainchecks on poor ol' Remy."

"Ah'm sorry Remy but..."

Rogue yer 10 minutes late fer practice. Get down to the Danger Room right now!!!

"Dat be de Intercom. You better get goin."

"o.k remy."

************************************************************************
Danger Room
************************************************************************

"Yer doin fine Rogue except fer one thing."

"What that?"

"Can you NOT use yer super strength?" Logan is splattered against the wall on the other side of the danger because when Logan and Rogue were fighting, Rogue accidentally used her powers.

"Sorry bout that, Sugah, but ah have a hard time controllin mah powers."

"Its alright darlin' but how about we practice controllin those powers o yers and cancel the rest of trainin?"

"No Logan cause it is just a waste of time."

"Rogue." Rogue looked around the room thinking why shouldn't she practice, sure Xavier couldn't help her but maybe, just maybe Logan can. Rogue looked up at Wolverine's stern look and thought that if she learnt how to control her powers, she could finally be able to touch her boyfriend, Gambit.

"Alright."

************************************************************************
GAMBIT'S ROOM
************************************************************************

'What's de matter wit you Gambit. Rogue be one hot chere and you be one hopelessly in love t'ieve.' Gambit sat on his bed thinking about his relationship with Rogue.

'You know what Gambit will do someting nice for her. I'll get a Limo, flowers and a diamond ring. So what if we can't touch, long as we love each other noting can stop us from marrying.' Gambit smiled wickedly and left his room to get the supplies he mentioned.

DANGER ROOM
************************************************************************

"Kay lets try this again darlin. Concentrate on yer powers.........now think about losin yer powers...... and..." Logan put his hand on Rogues cheek as she concentrated, but he ended up being absorbed again.

"Its hopeless Logan!!! Ah'll never learn how to control mah powers." Rogue turned around, back facing Logan, and allowed a single tear escape from her eyes.

"Don't say that Darlin. You will learn how to control yer powers, just as long as you don't give up."

"Its harder than it looks Logan"

"I'm sure it is darlin but you just can't give up. I... I KNOW HOW TO HELP YOU!!!"

"What?!" Rogue whipped her head around and stared at Logan, her sorrow filed face gone now replaced with hope.

"Touch my skin Rogue and I'll concentrate on not allowing yer powers to absorb me by using my healin factor." Rogue hesitates and touching Logan's skin at first, but then she takes her hands and places each hand on his face's cheeks. At first Rogue absorbed him but then she stopped absorbing him. Rogue lets go of him. Her eyes are wide open and she is overcome with great emotions.

"Ah... Ah touched you! AH REALLY TOUCHED YOU!!!" Rogue jumps to hug Logan, her hands on his cheeks, then they look at each other eye to eye. They put their lips together and kiss while their are being watched by a figure in the control room with red glowing eyes and now a broken heart.
