ROGUE
Ah found mahself sittin' in mah room with Kitty Thursday evenin' playin' with every type of makeup and hairstyle imaginable. "Kitty, Ah'm really tired, can we just quit?"
"Like, no way. I still need to find like the perfect hairstyle for you."
"Why can't we just leave it the way Ah normally wear it?
"Like that is way to blah. We need to find you something that's like exciting. This is a big date for you two, you like need to look totally nice."
"If Remy really like meh, he'll like meh the way Ah am."
"If Remy is like a normal guy, he'll like you even more if you look totally awesome." ~She's missin' the point again, isn't she?~
~"Like what point?"~
"Don't ya think that Piotr just likes ya for who ya are, not for the way ya dress?"
"Of course, but he like also likes how I dress." Ah shook mah head in partial disgust at how nieve Kitty was. "Like, stop moving or I'll like never finish."

John, Piotr, Kurt and I were all waiting in the front hall Friday night, waiting for our dates to come down. "Do the Sheilas always take this long, Mates?"
"Oui, when Kitty and Tabit'a are involved."
"Vhat could possibly be zo difficult about hair?"
"I do not know, but if they do not hurry, we will be late." As Piotr spoke Tabit'a and Kitty came running down de stairs in t'eir dresses looking all dolled up wit' t'eir makeup. I kept watching de top waiting for Rogue t' appear and when she did my breat'e was swept away. She had on de emerald dress t'at seemed t' fit her even better t'en it had in de store. She had on a pair of matching shoes and had on green makeup. Her hair was pulled back on top of her head so t'at her white streaks fell across de top of her head.
"Y' look bella, mon Cherie." She blushed as I took her hand and kissed de back of it.
"Ya just sayin' that."
"Non, I mean it."
"Alright, you kids, time for pictures." Beast came int' de room wit' de professor, Logan, and Storm wit' him holding a camera.
"You kids look lovely."
"T'ank y', Madmoiselle." Logan stood back against de wall watching as Beast took picture after picture of us all. At one point, Rogue walked over and pulled Logan over t' have a picture taken wit' him.
"Come on, Wolvie. It won't kill ya ta have one picture taken."
"You'd be surpised." He was grumbling but stood wit' de two of us for a shot. Eventually we were all seeing giant colorful spots in front of our eyes from de flash.
"Ze blue fuzzy dude iz Zeeing spots, and I haven't even gone to Amanda's yet."
"We'll see you at guys at the dance, Mates." Kurt left wit' John and Tabit'a in one car t' go get Amanda, while de rest of us got int' Rogue's jeep. I grabbed Rogue's keys before she could put t'em in de ignition and held de door open for her on de passenger side.
"What do ya think ya doin'?"
"I wouldn't be a gentleman if I made y' drive, now would I, Cherie?"
"Since when were ya a gentleman?" She got int' de passenger seat and I walked around t' de driver's side and started de jeep.
"Since I met y', of course."
ROGUE
Ya couldn't even tell it was the school's gym anymore for all of the decorations. It was absolutely gorgeous. Remy was leadin' meh around with his arms around mah waist as we found Kurt, Amand, John an' Tabitha already sittin' at a table. He pulled out a chair for meh as Ah sat down.
"Ja, zis iz nice."
"Like, I can't believe how great the gym looks."
Ah looked around meh at all the couples walkin' around or dancin' or talkin' ta their friends. It felt weird that in a room that was so crowded, there was at least five feet of space between our table an' everybody else. Ah sighed, nothin' had changed, we were still mutants, just freaks wearin' tuxes an' dresses.
"Somet'ing de matter, mon Cherie?"
"No, Ah was just lookin' around, that's all." By the way he was lookin' at meh, Ah could tell he knew what was botherin' meh.
"Don't let t'em get t' y'."
"Yeah, well, Ah'm not the one who got beat up, remember." He frowned as Ah mentioned the fight from the week before.
"Like what are you talking about. Who got beat up."
"Nothin'." "Non one." He was still starin' straight at meh with his gorgeous demon eyes. Everyone else found his eyes ta be unnervin', everyone but meh that is.
"Kitty, let's dance." The others left our table for the dance floor while Remy an' Ah still sat there in silence.
"Ah'm sorry…Ah shouldn't have brought that up."
"Non, it's alright." He looked out at the dance floor where our friends were havin' a good time. "Are y' still mad at me?"
"What, no. Why do ya say that?"
"Y' been real quiet, Marie." He turned ta look back at meh an' Ah could tell by lookin' at him he was completely serious. "I just t'ought y' were still mad."
"Ah was…an' Ah still am a little. But it's not like Ah won't ever forgive ya." His face broke out in a grin as he took mah hand an' led meh out ta where the others were. He looked devilishly handsome without his tux jacket an' looked more like his usual self. As soon as we got ta them, the song changed from being a fast one ta a slow one. He slid his arms around mah waist an' pulled meh in close ta him as Ah put mah arms around his neck.
{Finally Here Once Speak To Me, I Want To Feel You, I Need To Hear You}
Ah leaned mah head on his chest an' closed mah eyes allowin' mahself ta sink inta him. Ah could feel the warmth from his body an' hear his heart beating close ta mine.
{You Are The Light That's Leading Me To The Place, Where I Find Peace Again}
Ah felt an overwhelmin' peace come over meh as we stood there swayin' ta an' fro. Everythin' else faded away as we stood there among all those people an' yet we were completely alone.
{You Are The Strength That Keeps Me Walking, You Are The Hope That Keeps Me Trusting}
~Despite everythin' that's happened, Ah still trust him with all mah heart. Without him, Ah don't know what Ah would do.~

In de dim lighting she looked even more beautiful. Her head rested on mah chest an' Ah could hear her breathing softly as I held her close.
{You Are The Light To My Soul, You Are My Purpose}
"Wit' out y', Marie, I'm not'ing." She looked up at me and gave me a smile as I kissed her on de lips.
{You're Everything And How Can I Stand Here With You, And Not Be Moved By It}
"Ah bet ya tell that ta all the girls."
"Non, just y'." She was teasing me as she squeezed me even tighter.
{Would You Tell Me How Could It Be Any Better Than This, Yeah}
"So what do ya think of school so far, Remy LeBeau?"
"It's like an island in de sun, Cherie." She looked up at me wit' questioning eyes.
{You Calm The Storms And You Give Me Rest, You Hold Me In Your Hands}
"At times, it's paradise here wit' y'. Ot'er times it's been hotter t'en hell. But everyt'ing's perfect when y' holding me." She smiled as she put her head back on my chest and I rested mine on top of hers.
{You Won't Let Me Fold, You Still My Heart When You Take My Breathe Away}
Out of nowhere she leaned back and kissed me on de lips. My heart skipped t' or t'ree beats as she took my breat'e away.
ROGUE
{Would You Take Me In, Take Me Deeper Now}
Ah felt him pull meh in closer as we continued ta kiss. Ah finally pulled back in desperate need of air. He was lookin' down at meh an' without havin' ta use his powers or Logan's senses Ah could tell his eyes were filled with love for meh.
{And How Can I Stand Here With You And Not Be Moved By It
Would You Tell Me How Could It Be Any Better Than This}
~Nothin' could possibly be better than this.~
~"Remy can t'ink of somet'ing better—anot'er kiss would be good."~
~Good idea.~
{And How Can I Stand Here With You And Not Be Moved By It
Would You Tell Me How Could It Be Any Better Than This}
Almost as if he could read mah mind he leaned down an' kissed meh again. Ah never noticed that the others had stopped dancin' ta watch us or else Ah might have died of embarrassment on the spot—or would Ah? Ah had begun ta care less of what others thought of meh datin' Remy an' more about what Ah wanted.
{Cause You're All I Want, You're All I Need, You're Everything…Everything}
~This is all Ah ever wanted…someone who could love meh, for meh. Well, Ah also wanted someone who wasn't bothered by mah powers so that makes this all the better.~
{Cause You're All I Want, You're All I Need, You're Everything…Everything}
GAMBIT
{Cause You're All I Want, You're All I Need, You're Everything…Everything}
~All I've ever needed was someone who could look over my past and give me a second chance. She's been de only person willing t' do t'at.~
{Cause You're All I Want, You're All I Need, You're Everything…Everything}
~She's everyt'ing I could have asked for. Non, she's more t'en t'at. She's outspoken, smart, funny…de list goes on forever.~
{And How Can I Stand Here With You And Not Be Moved By It
Would You Tell Me How Could It Be Any Better Than This}
"Cherie," I was whispering int' her ear as she rested her head on my chest, "Y' know I love y'."
{And How Can I Stand Here With You And Not Be Moved By It
Would You Tell Me How Could It Be Any Better Than This}
"Ah know." She smiled up at me and made me wonder how anybody could ask for anyt'ing more t'en t'is.
{And How Can I Stand Here With You And Not Be Moved By It
Would You Tell Me How Could It Be Any Better Than This
Would You Tell Me How Could It Be Any Better Than This}
AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Awww…if I don't say so myself. That is and forever will be my favorite slow/love song. If you haven't heard it…what are you waiting for?!?! Unfortunately, that is the end of my story. I still haven't heard many people asking for a Remy fluff chapter but since I've had a brilliant idea as to what should have happened, my next story will include a brief explanation plus a new character…I'll leave you hanging there. Muahahahahaha! Next time, I'll be wearing jingle bells on my feet and reindeer antlers as I type…just to give you a mental image.
