THIS IS A SHORT CHAPTER, sorry....
5) Go To Sleep
I looked over at Gambit and he was waking up. I kind of wanted to go over there and kick him a few times, but I resisted. He got up slowly, like I did, and leaned against the wall of the vehicle. He looked around while rubbing his head, then his gaze found me in the corner. He seemed a bit shocked to see me there.
"Are you happy, now?" I asked angrily
"Happy? How can I be happy? I feel like I have a bad hangover and I messed up real bad..." he moaned
"Like Im going to believe you again."
"Hey chere, I told you to leave. I knew they were gonna get me, I tried to help you. I helped you before, but you were sedated..."
"Then, where are we now?!"
"...I dont know..."
I turned away from him and placed myself in a corner. I could feel his eyes burning through my skin but I never turned around.
"Aye chere... I think... theres a problem..." Gambit studdered
I turned around,"What?"
"My powers... "
"What? Did'ja run outta cards?"
"Thier gone...." he took his gloves off, "Touch me..."
"No, you know what happens when I touch people."
"Then you would want to zap me real good then, right?"
"How 'bout I just give you a real ass whoppin?"
I took my glove off and lightly touched his hand. He just stared at me blankly. My powers were gone, which meant I could touch people. I may have been kidnapped and in the back of a van, but this may have been the happiest day of my life. I pulled back, almost laughing and almost crying.
"Rogue?" he asked
"Its gone! Ha!" I laughed
Then I looked at him. He seemed saddened that his "deformity" was gone. He slinked back and sat down next to a wall. Then I thought about it. Now, I was like everyone else. I could never take part in the amazing events that the Xmen take place in. I could never fly again, or control fire, or absorb anything from anyone.
"Once its gone, chere, what then? What do the mutants do then? We spent all of our life in the shadows, and suddenly our powers are gone. We cant just come out from the shadows. And somethin thats makes us who we are... somethin thats always been a part of us is gone... what then?"
"We could go back with family and friends."
"Family..." he turned away from me, "You can go back to your 'family and friends'... I dont have any... dont need any, and I thought you would understand that. Thats why I came to you..."
I sudden realized something else. He may have been part of a devious plot, but he did rescue me. He was trapped in here, too. He feels alone, too. I had been focussed on my own stupid problems to see someone was trying to reach out to me. I felt selfish.
"Im... sorry... Remy..." I said, almost inaudible
He turned to me,"What?"
"Im sorry. Im sorry Ive been so cold. Im sorry for putting you down. Im sorry that you have to be stuck here with me," I said as I burst into tears
I slinked back and slid down the wall. I quickly buried my head in my arms and cried endlessly. I felt his arm around my shoulders. I looked up to him and he smiled. He wiped away one of my tears.
"Theres no room for cryin, chere 'cuz you and me... we're gettin outta here," he smiled
"Why are you bein so nice to me?"
"I just wanted one chance. And you... you gave me many..."
I stopped crying and smiled back.
"Till we get outta here. Close your eyes, rest your head and got to sleep," he said, so sweetly
You know, a girl could get used to this. Screw Scott. I mean, I have showed that I liked him and he gave no response. I think I was falling for Gambit. What am I saying? Ive already fallen for him. I did awhile ago even though I said I hated him. I felt like I had to say that. Its part of all the "good guy versus bad guy" story book rules. But I was sick of that. I wasnt going to listen to Xaviers rules, the story book rules. This is my time, my rules, my life and right now I just wanted to be held and cared for instead of being used as some sort of tool.
He pulled me close. Just for this one time, I pulled closer, too. I relaxed my head against his chest. The sound of his heart beat and the feel of his hand running through my hair lulled me closer to sleep. As I drifted off I noticed something, his heart and mine were beating in sync. I felt... loved.
****
Damn you people! REVIEWSSSSSSS. I need them. Otherwise, you will never ever ever know what happens. Maybe its happy or maybe Gambits is really trying to kill her or maybe they will all just die. Yeah, die.... haha... they all just DIE!
