Toxic


Sorry about the wait I was on holiday.


"With a taste of your lips
I'm on a ride
You're toxic I'm slipping under
With a taste of a poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic"


Rogue didn't even feel the cold air whipping into her face, nor did she feel the tears sliding down her cheeks 'she was such a fool!' finally Rogue wiped away her tears, she wouldn't-couldn't cry over Remy LeBeau any more, if she could help it.

She stopped the bike by a pub, swinging her legs over the side she checked to make sure that their was no evidence of tears on her face, she banged open the pub doors, stalking to the bar, she ignored the barman raised eyebrows as she ordered a whisky straight.

Rogue looked around the pub, stopping dead when she saw someone, her eye twitched, the bastard. Couldn't cheat on her! How could she believe that shit!

She stormed over to him; looking back she might have been surprised that he didn't feel her coming behind him.

"Gambit! Hav'in fun?" her southern accent coming out thick in the emotion in her voice.

"Ah! Chére" Gambit reached out and pulled Rogue down so she landed sitting on him, Rogue was pleased at the fact at least the blond who had been trying to drape herself across Remy, was thrown from him. Rogue was about to give Gambit another lecture when he shoved a bottle of vodka at her.

"Dri'k up chére" Gambit slurred at her. She raised an eyebrow then remembered the events that lead up to her being in the bar, she took a huge sip.

"Roguey likes" she giggled to Gambit, he grinned wolfishly at her.

"Y'know Gammy-bit you're hot" Rogue spun round on him to straddle him.

They clanged their bottles together.


"Fifty-four bottles of beer on the wall, Fifty-four bottles of beer! Take one down, Pass it around, Fifty-three bottles of beer on the wall!"

Gambit and Rogue sung in slurred voices as Rogue flew them over the gates of the mansion, arms interlocked, they stumbled in the air.

"Grrr"

"Gammy-bit was thatta ya?"

"Non, chére" he paused then squeezed her bum "tat was Gambit" he stated at her shock face proudly.

"But Gammy-bit if tat wasn't ya?" they both looked at the people standing in front of them.

"Merde."

"Gammy-bit tell me dere not real!" Rogue cried, not looking at the people standing in front of her and Gambit.

"Sorrah chére, dere real" he told her.

Rogue turned back to look sadly at Wolverine, Scott, Jean, Kurt and Remy, all who were looking disappointed and angry.

"Do you two have anything to say for your self's?" Scott demanded.

Gambit and Rogue looked at each other before grinning madly.

"Fifty-three bottles of beer on the wall, Fifty-three bottles of beer! Take one down, Pass it around, Fifty-two bottles of beer on the wall!"

They were then er...escorted inside.


"My head" Rogue groaned, while putting herself into a sitting position. She looked around the room, once again groaning as her gaze landed on Kitty.

"Okay I like totally want details!" she squealed, "What did you two go last night?"

"Well from de feel of my head we got drunk," Rogue groaned again from speaking.

"Like I knew that," Kitty gave her a look as to say 'duh' "but I mean when you were drunk did you like do anything?"

"I don't remember," Rogue knew it sounded pathetic as soon as it came out her mouth.

"You don't like think he'd take advanced of you?" Kitty asked, obviously worried.

"No!" Rogue hand snapped over her mouth, she had answered with no hesitation, no doubt, she trusted Gambit, and that scared her more than anything.


Rogue and Gambit were sitting in the Professor office, getting lectured by Scott, the Professor, Logan and Remy.

"We're all very disappointed in you Rogue..." Scott interrupted the Professor

"Yes we would expect something like this from Gambit but not from you Rogue, you are an X-Man-"

"What?!" Rogue stood up chair falling to the ground behind her "he's an X- Men, he's joined us, he NOT an acolyte anymore," Rogue glared at Scott.

"Stripes I can't believe you're actually sticking up for Gumbo, he got you drunk, who knows what he would've done to you-"

"Wat?!" Gambit stood up "Are you implying?" he demanded eyes glowing.

"What do ya think bub? Everyone's seen how you look at Rogue-!"

"Stop it Logan!" Rogue looked at him disgusted, "I can't believe you could even think that low of him-"

"Rogue he's bad news," at Rogue's glare he threw his arms up in the air and stalked out of the room.

"I need some beer, I'll be back in a couple of days Charlie," Wolverine made for the door, but stopped as he walked past Rogue, "Darlin'..."

"Just go away Wolverine" Rogue said turning her cheek on him, he walked out the room, door slamming behind him.

"You got two cents you like to add Remy?" She asked Remy sarcastically.

"Non" he sighed, "Remy goin'-" he paused "downstairs"

"Professor I-"

"No Rogue" he held up his hand "There will be no punishment" he looked at the door where Rogue's friends had walked out of, "I think this was punishment enough"

Rogue nodded and her and Gambit walked into the hallway, where they found Kitty standing outside Scott's bedroom.

"Kitty?" Rogue asked surprised.

"Like Rogue hi, Scott just grabbed Jean and stormed in their" she indicated to the shut bedroom door, then she gave one of the drinks that she had been holding in her hand to Rogue, "I was bringing it up for you"

"Thanks" Rogue told her.

"So like what do you think Scott and Jean are doing?" Kitty asked Gambit innocently, he smirked.

Looking at Rogue he waited until she was taking a sip of her drink before he answered.

"Ils se baisent" Rogue spat up her drink.

"Gambit! That was wrong!"

"You know you like it." He wiggled his eyebrows at Rogue, and she couldn't help it, she burst out laughing.


"I hate the rain" Rogue told Gambit, sitting on the couch in the rec room.

"Why?" he asked her.

"Boring."

He stared at her, and then smiled, his Devil smile.

Next he jumped her.

"Don't tickle me Gambit!" it didn't stop him, so he was lying on top of her soon, tickling her, that when Remy walked in, he gave them one look then walked out with a hurt expression on his face, Rogue pushed Gambit off and followed him.

"Remy wait!"

"Wat chére?" Remy asked, anger masking his words.

"Gambit and I are friends, I-I love you" she looked into his eyes, and he smiled.

"Remy loves you too chére" he told her pulling her into a hug.

They walked away arms wrapped around each other, and didn't see Gambit walk out of the shadows; they didn't know he had been listening.

Gambit ran into the rain, and as he stood the rain hitting his clothes, and he convinced himself that the salt water running down his face was the rain.

And he kneeled down onto the wet grass, and that when he realized, that for a long time, even before his future self had come, that he loved the Rogue.

And with that realization, Gambit realized, he needed to go far away.


Now I know that Remy at first wouldn't let Rogue love him, but he got jealous, but mainly he just wants his Rogue back, and this time Rogue is the closet thing to her.

Okay Remy, comic, older version, is scared of commitment, Gambit, Evo, is petrified.

French.

Ils se baisent They're fucking.

Thanks to...

Star-of-chaos I liked the fight as well ; P

Passionwriter4life Rogue knows French because she has touched Remy, and she did live with Irene and Irene character seems to be the kind that would like Rogue to learn languages. But she knows the swearing from Remy's psyche. ; p

Roguewannabe29 I'm not going to stop writing, was just teasing you, were onto a new verse.

Lily Ah yes she does very much love Gambit, but why does she...? Future Rogue, it's a good idea, but she wouldn't work with Trask.

Weapon X 61 It didn't take that long to get out, I'm sure Logan would only make you do like 2 Danger room sessions...er right...?

Ishandahaft I was going to have Rogue storm out of the Bar enraged with Gambit and have him follow, as you do, and then I decided to change it to what it is. I'm grad you liked the fight, my first ever fight scene!

Peace215 Shrinks I don't think they could handle them. The superpowers won't change Rogue much, but then again at the moment Carol's locked away, she could always get out... I know what you mean about Scott older brother or jealous, at the moment he's kind of older brother, but really she already got Kurt filling that role...

Beauty818 Thanks, through I'm not sure about the awesome chapter... :D

DemonRogue13 Thanks :D

PomegranateQueen Sweaty fight scene, of course I didn't think of that, I mean really moi? Lol

Kitsune Jagan Well you see future Rogue has an interior motive.

Rogue14 Well it not exactly ASAP, but...er...it's here.

...Thank you all.

Now here's a fun quote.

Found on a web site I've forgotten.
