Awakening
Jade: hehe...here we go...the showering of gifts!
Marie's eyes parted slowly as she found herself staring up at a bright white ceiling and quickly shut them. " Ugh it's too damn bright in here." She hissed softly before opening her eyes once more, this time only mid way. Reluctantly she rolled over and found a vase filled with white Orchids upon her nightstand. She sat up and gently ran her fingers over one of the flower's velvet petals. " Absolutely beautiful..."
" Glad you like dem...Cherie..." A soothing husky voice spoke from a dimly lit corner. She turned over so she could face who had spoken. " Remy?"
" De one an' only Cherie..." He said as he rose from his chair and approached her hospital bed. Marie now found herself fully awake as her eyes ran over him with a fine tooth come. He was wearing a nice casual maroon button up, the top two buttonholes undone. His hair was down and stopped right just below his jaw line. A small grin crossed her lips as her eyes ventured downwards, seeing a pair of black fitted leather pants. ' He's the only one that could ever wear them and look that good in them...' she thought to herself.
" My you been quiet...have I done somethin' wrong?"
" No, just don' remember you lookin' dat good Sugah!" Remy grinned as he leaned in placing his hands beside her shoulders as he placed his lips down beside her ear. " Glad you like it but I bet you'd like what's beneath de clothes too, non?"
He then drew back after blowing gently upon her ear, leaving Marie blushing brightly. She then looked away and gasped as she saw several other jars of white Orchids. "Thank ya so much, but who told ya?"
" Your brother an' had a long talk Cherie..."
Marie nodded. " Can't believe you talked to him about me, dats sweet..."
" Excuse me...but has Miss Darkholme awakened?" A nurse asked as she popped her head into Marie's room. " Yes ma'am she has..." Remy answered.
The nurse then stepped in and checked Marie's pulse, blood pressure and temperature. " We don't let patients go until two days after they awaken...I'm done checking you out for now but the doctor will want to see you later but for now I'll go get you something to eat..." Marie smiled and nodded.
" Thanks Ah'm starved."
The nursed smiled at Marie and Remy before she left the room to go place an order with the hospital kitchen. Once she was gone Marie made a face. " Ugh hospital food..." Remy smiled and kissed her cheek. " Non, not for you Cherie...managed to sneak in a thermos of my gumbo in..."
" Aww but it's cold now..." Marie pouted
" Not to worry Cherie..." He said as he walked over to his trench coat and pulled out the thermos ( how big are those pockets in his coat?!) then approached her once more. His hands gently wrapped around the metal cylinder as it began to glow with a strange pink aura for a few seconds before fading away. " Should be hot now.." He said as he opened the thermos and handed her a plastic spoon he swiped from the kitchen. He then dipped the spoon inside and brought it to Marie's lips.
" Say ahh"
" Rem I'm not a baby..."
" You ruinin' my fun Cherie..." He pouted
" All right...ahh." He smiled as he placed the spoon in her mouth and watched her face as it lit up with delight. She then swallowed it down. " Wow that tastes amazing!"
" I know.." He couldn't help but feel pride in himself, he had been taught by some of the best in his family, of course it was amazing.
As he continued to feed her Remy explained how grateful his family was to her and her partner. " De wanted me to invite you down to N'awlins for a little vacation...your brother said you really needed to take one."
Marie thought to herself for a moment as she took in another spoonful of gumbo. " Remy are you sure about this?"
" Remy would be honored if you came back down south with him. Your brother is also insisting that you go, he said something about you being a workaholic..."
" Ah am not!" She cried in outrage. Remy just chuckled. " Don' kill me, I'm jus' de messenger."
Remy held his hands up as if ready to block. Rogue just chuckled. " Please think about it Ma Cherie?"
" Alright I will..."
Remy then handed her a slice of cheesecake that he got to go from the Cheesecake Factory.
" Wow...your really goin for de brownie points aren't ya" She chuckled as her eyes focused on the fluffy cream cheese cake (mmm...cheesecake...). " Whatever it takes Ma Cherie..." He said as he handed her the box with the cheesecake and handed her a fork as well. Remy then handed her a tape and smiled. " Oh Blade!"
" Remy sorry we never really got to have a second date so he thought we could have it here..." Rogue blushed as she watched him pop it into the vhs player and scooted over on the hospital bed and patted upon it. Remy didn't need a second thought before he was on the bed with her curled up and happily watching the gory mayhem unfold.
Soon they were both fast asleep...
Jade: Yeah yeah I know hospitals don't have tape players but for the sake of my story there was one...So folks read and review...I have given you the fluff now...and I am debating a sequal...I think it may just be a chapter more or so.
