Chap 8. Two Days Later

The X-kids decided to spend Saturday at the lake near the edge of the Xavier property . They swam, ate , played and so on, enjoying the afternoon milking it for all it was worth to them.

"So chere......bout us getting together sometime?" Remy shuffled a pack of cards looking at Rogue.

"Ah'm all for it" She grinned,"Sorry.......ah doubted ya b'fore, but ya were workin' for Magneto.....an' ah wasn't sure how ah was suposed ta act towards ya. After all ya did try ta blow me up"

"Well......dat was my mistake." He winked," But Remy learned his lesson."

"An' that lesson is?" Rogue folded her arms.

"Not to try an' blow up a pretty girl" He winked. Then pulled out a card from the deck in his hand moving closer to her . Holding the card out to her like when they first met," take it no tricks" He assured her.

Rogue took the card and looked at it. The queen of hearts, she smiled. But a second thought made her frown,"Yer sweet an' all but ah jus' want a friend at this point an' time" She handed it back to him.

Remy sighed," If dats what you want den so be ......." Something hit Remy from behind which caused him to loose his balance knocking into Rogue, sending her into the lake clothes and all.

"Evan......Ah'm gunna kill you!" Everything was back to normal around the Mansion. Laughter filled the air, including Rogue's.
