Remy walked over to Scott who was sitting on a bench under the pear tree in the institute's back yard. He was reading a school book, and Remy figured it was an assignment, not too important that he couldn't interrupt for a minute.
"Remy needs to speak with you." Scott looked up, having been caught off guard.
"Go ahead." He found the situation awkward and hadn't reacted as he normally would. He had spent most of the time trying to protect Rogue from the Cajun but since she was at Risty's, he had the day off.
"Look homme, Remy understands your need to protect the fille but you need to back off." Remy saw Scott's lips purse and decided to continue on. "Why do you tink I came back?" His lost of third person caused Scott to look up and pay attention. "Cause I want to be part of da X Men? I came back for Rogue. Now I need to get her to understand why I left but she won't hear me out if your in da way at all times. If you don't believe me ask your girl my intentions. She'll tell you dat I care about da girl."
Remy left the scene and entered the institute; Scott assumed he was going to the training session that Logan was testing him on. He got up and walked over to Jean who was talking to Amara.
"Jean, I need you to do me a favor." Jean turned to him and smiled.
"Sure Scott."
"Check out the Cajun at dinner today and tell me what he thinks when he looks at Rogue." Jean almost refused but saw that he was concerned for his friend and found herself agreeing to it.
"All right, but if he's honest than just let them solve this themselves." Scott nodded and left, Rogue should be back by dinner, he'd find out the truth by than.

Remy sat with the teachers and occasionally looked up from his meal. The dining room was loud with noise as all the mutants shared their day or fought with each other. Kurt was sitting next to a human girl from his school, who didn't seem to feel out of place with the mutant behavior surrounding her. His eyes focused on Rogue who was solemnly eating her meal.
Remy looked back down and licked his lips, why was it that everything had to go wrong. If he would have known he would have been able to be with her in the future, he would have never left her. He thought about how cruel he had been that day and was overcome with nausea. He immediately lost his appetite and excused himself from the table.
Jean closed her eyes and went quickly through his head; his vulnerability didn't allow him to block her. A tear escaped and she left the table quickly, Scott followed her.
"You all right Jean?" Jean turned to him with tears in her eyes.
"Leave them alone Scott." Scott pursed his lips and nodded. He would let them be, but he would still protect Rogue at all cost. Someone had to watch out for her.
