Rogue slammed the lobby entrance door shut and headed back to the room hastily, As she turned the door knob and realized she needed a key to enter she sighed very loudly and angrily.
"Ah need tah get out of...are we still in New York ah...Mister...what was it?" She turned to ask Remy.
"It's Remy, but I'd prefer Gambit."
"I figured you'd be the first to realize where we are. Seeing as to how you have the Southern flare for our Southern ways and attitude." He added very snobbishly, "We're in New Orleans, my home city, and in the middle of Mardi Gras."
"Great parties all day and night I should be happy. Well seeing as how I'm stuck here...unfortunately with you, until I can figure out how to get out of here. Let's P.A.R.T.Y!" She looked at him with a hopeless and reluctant face.
* I'm not a perfect person
As many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know *
~*~*~*~
"Hey! Mine! Ah said DON'T TOUCH!"
"Oh that hurt! Now Ah have fork teeth marks on mah hand! Yah had mah salad, so Ah have a right to touch and take as many of yahr fries as Ah want. Ah'm paying for everything, and anyways fries are bad for yah."
"So!" "Rogue stuck her tongue out at Gambit. "Why are you eating them for, Mistah Greedy?"
"Ah said they're bad for *you*, not me," he replied while grabbing her hand, that was placing a fry into her mouth, and redirected it's destination to his mouth.
Rogue quickly snatched her hand away from him; through her glove she could feel the warmth of his hand. His touch was very gentle, he was able to move her hand with out any difficulty, it was like she had no control over her hand, it moved to his mouth without force or without any command to do so. She stared at his lips longing to feel the delicate skin with her bare finger, she was wondering if he was having the same thought. * I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you *
Gambit just stared at Rogue sitting across from him eating. He found his eyes linger from her eyes to her lips. He wondered if he reached across the table and kissed her would she taste of cherries or fries. He wanted so much to find out, if he would taste fruits or grease?
"Quit staring, ish not like yah ain't seen anyone eat before?"
"Who say Ah was starin' at yah, for yah information I was starin' at a la petite over at dah bar. Ain't she a wondah?"
"The femme sitting at de bar or de one servin' de drinks?"
"Very funny cherie. For yah information dis homme don't go dat way."
"Yah know yah shouldn't be ashamed of yah self. Be proud of yah sexuality, sugah." Rogue couldn't help but laugh at Gambit.
"Ah ain't got tah sit here and take dis, Ah can prove tah yah Ah don't go dat way."
"Be mah guest."
With that Gambit got up from the table and walked over to the woman sitting at the bar. She was a tall woman a bit younger than Gambit, she wore a short, skin tight, red dress that ended in the mid of her thigh. She had been watching Gambit for a while and seemed very interested in the tall mysterious Cajun. So when he had approached her she gave him a sultry seductive hello.
"Ah was wonderin' can Ah buy yah a drink, but it seems dat yah already have one." Gambit said with emphases on his French accent, to sound deep and airless.
"How 'bout you give me an introduction to your little friend over there." She nodded her head in Rogue's direction. Apparently Gambit had been wrong about this femme, Gambit thought.
"Ah...yah know what I think she would like that." Gambit replied looking at the woman with a grin on his face. "But Ah ain't too sure she'll be nice."
"Oh a feisty one I see." She winked at Gambit and smiled a wicked smile at him.
"Come Ah'll introduce you two and then disappear if yah wish." He winked back at her.
"Oh no I believe you have the wrong idea, love, I ain't interested in her like that. I was wondering if she would like to be a model. But you my dear are a fine piece of red meat." She ran a finger across his lips and then gave him a gentle kiss.
The pair headed over to Rogue who had been watching the whole thing, while laughing senseless on the inside. As she saw them head over to her, she wondered what on earth the swamp rat was doing.
"Rogue Ah would like yah to meet Camilla. Now Ah'll leave the two of you alone."
"Wait! Wait! WAIT RIGHT THERE Swamp Rat!" Rogue yelled at Gambit as he turned as quickly as he could but apparently not quick enough, "Where on gods tar nation do yah think yahr going??"
"Tah prove tah yah I don't go that way."
"Oh vraiment et ce qui est avec cette femme? Pourquoi elle ici?" (Oh really and what is with this woman? Why she here?)
"Femme si je vous disais qu'alors il n'y aurait aucun amusement en observant ce que vous ferez quand vous découvrez. Quoi qu'il en soit la femme est vraiment amicable... particulièrement avec des dames, telles que votre individu." (Femme if I told you that then there would be no fun in watching what you will do when you find out. Anyway the woman is really friendly ...especially with ladies, such as your self.) As Gambit said his do's he gave Rogue a grin and turned quickly, and headed over to the waitress who had been staring at him all night.
~*~*~*~
Scott sat at his desk in his room, wondering. All he could think about was what the Professor had asked him to, and what Kurt had said to him. They were all right, the Professor, Kurt, Jean and especially Kitty. Everything they said about him was dead on. How could he have tried to fool himself? How could anyone have tried to fool himself or herself about such a thing?
All week Scott had to listen to Jean whine about how unfair it was that she had to leave and that Kitty just got to go home, and nothing else. In her little world Kitty deserved severe punishment, her being sent home was to good for the Shadowcat. But Jean being sent home was cruelty. Even though her whole family dotted on her, she had a *boyfriend* here, and friends, all her stuff was here, it just wasn't fair, in her opinion. Scott secretly agreed with Jean, it just wasn't fair. Kitty going home wasn't right, it wasn't fair, she had only done what was necessary, and she hadn't injured Jean or anything. Jean, however Scott believed, had gotten off easy. He believed she should be severely punished; after all she had knocked him when they were trying to rescue Rogue and had lied about not seeing her. He didn't know for sure Jean had not seen Rogue, but the way Jean kept embellishing her story he figured she had lied.
Scott just wanted to find Rogue and apologias to her. He wanted to say sorry for everything he had done, for not rescuing her, for flinching every time she came near, for wishing secretly that she would not be on his team when they had Danger Room practices. He just wanted to let her know he was truly sorry and he wanted her.
*I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why I need you to hear*
~*~*~*~
As Rogue talked to Camilla she couldn't help but stare at Remy. She had watched him walk away, watch the way he sort just glided as he walked with pride, over to the waitress who had been staring at him all night. He had an air about him that suggested arrogance, chivalry, and a huge ego. Rogue couldn't help but giggle inside, something she rarely, if ever, did, at the thought of how big of an ego Remy had. Although she only had a glimpse of his ego she had the feeling it was enormous and she would be seeing more of it.
*I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You*
She watched him carefully as he talked to the waitress, just imagining all the tricks in the book he would have to use in order for the waitress to turn into putty in his hands. She knew it would not take much effort for him to do that. All he had to do was just look at her, he didn't even have to smile at women and they would swoon at him in a heartbeat. As for Rogue all she had to do was stare into his eyes and get lost in them. In his eyes she saw what only few would see, the real him, there was much turmoil and conflict, parts of Rogue wanted to find out what made him feel these things, what bothered him, and the other part of her just wanted to escape from him and run away to someplace she could just hide.
All of a sudden Rogue's view of Remy was interrupted by the view of a waving hand. All the time Rogue had been staring at Remy Camilla had been talking to Rogue about some modeling thing, and was now trying to get her attention, for an answer to her question. Rogue who had not been paying attention felt like a school who caught staring out of the window and was now faced with answering the most easy question and had no idea what it was, just decided to tell Camilla that she had not heard what she just asked her.
"I asked if you were interested in being a model? You would be great at modeling our line of clothing."
"I'm sorry but I don't model, and I would not like to start anytime soon or ever for that matter either."
"Well just incase you change your mind I am going to leave my card with you. You if you're not interested maybe you know someone who is, they can just give me a call and mention your name."
"I will surely do that." Rogue took the card from Camilla with Kitty in mind as someone who wouldn't mind modeling, and just smiled at Camilla as she turned and walked away.
*I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know*
As Remy talked to the waitress all his mind kept thinking about was the beautiful chere he had rescued and kept watch over the whole night, to the very moment she awoke and tried to leave, to very moment he had read his chere's poem, to the very moment he had sat across from her staring at her lips wanting, needing, lusting to touch them. He needed to get his head off of her, she was just another felle, plus she was an assignment, one he could not afford to get attached to. If Magneto found out Remy had become attached to her he feared what Magneto would do with his contract.
Remy looked down at his watch to find that this waitress had one heck of a yapper. She had been talking for one hour straight. Remy subconsciously looked over to Rogue, and found that Camilla had left her, and some guy joined her. They seemed to have been engrossed in a deep conversation. Feeling a pang of jealousy, Remy ended his session of my dog and headed over towards Rogue. When he got with one feet of Rogue he recognized the face of the man Rogue was talking to, this was not good. Before he could think of somehow to get himself and Rogue out of there without letting the gentleman see him, he was spotted and called over to.
"Remy mah cuz, what are you doing here?" He said winking at him.
"Lappin Ah should ask yah the same." Remy glanced from Lappin to Rogue.
"Just chattin' with this felle here. Says she has no money and no way of getting back home, she had been abandoned. Maybe we could help her."
"Oh did she now." Remy looked at Rogue with a surprised look.
"What did I do? I did tell him the truth. I am stranded and I *was* abandoned."
"You two know each other?"
"Yeah for what four hours."
"Non chere one whole night." Remy gave her a wink and smile a big fat grin at her.
"Aah I get you now. Mon cher cuz que je vois que vous jouez toujours les dames. (My dear cuz I see you are still playing the ladies.)"
"Puits vous me connaissez. (Well you know me.)"
"Et vous évidemment ne me connaissez pas! (And you obviously do not know me!) I'm out of here." Rogue shouted at him and got of her seat and left the two men dumbfounded.
Remy quickly got up and chased after Rogue. As he turned the corner of the street on which Rogue had turned he slammed into her.
~*~*~*~
Scott waited until everyone in the mansion was asleep to go to the school, he and Kurt teleported to his locker at Bayville High. Kurt was not pleased at being in school on a Saturday night, but then again no one could stop him from doing whatever he wanted. While Kurt was goofing around, Scott was rummaging through his locker. If one were to look inside his locker they would think he were a stoker or something. There were pictures of Rogue everywhere; there was even a little shrine of her in the middle.
*I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you*
Kurt heard a yell of triumph from Scott and teleported back to Scott's locker, to get a glimpse of a picture of Rogue and a slammed locker in his face.
"Vhat? Have yah von the lottery or something?"
"No silly. Let's go, I found what I came to get, so we can leave now." Scott said with a giant smile on his face.
*I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you*
