Telepathy

6 months later

Rogue jumped up with a start. She was having the same dream every night. The same dream that made her say no to Warren's proposal every time he asked. It was the dream about Remy Lebeau. The man she hardly even knew, but it felt like she's known him forever. The man whose kisses made her feel whole again. She closed her eyes and tried to remember how it felt that night when he let her go. Then she felt hands creep up her arms.
"Another nightmare love?" She felt kisses on her shoulders. She turned around and looked at Warren. That night when she came back from her conversation with Remy, Warren grabbed her in a hug and begged her for his forgiveness. She did forgive and a few weeks later she began a relationship with him. It was all was downhill from there.
"Ah guess you could say that."
"Maybe you should talk to the Professor?"
"It's not that serious Warren. Ah just need to take a walk." She saw Warren's mouth open. "Alone. Ah just need to think." She slipped on her robe and flew out the window and landed on the bench. "Why can't Ah get you out mah head you swamp rat." She felt the wind blow across her face. She felt a tear roll down her cheeks. "Ah'm not goin' to cry ov'r that Cajun." She wiped the tear away. Unknown to her there was a pair of haunting eyes watching her, waiting to make his move.

One word to describe breakfast at the mansion, hectic. Rogue sat next to Warren eating her pancakes.
"So Rogue did Warren like ask you again?" Kitty whispered so Warren wouldn't hear her.
"No," Rogue sighed. She hated seeing the hurt in Warren's eyes every time she said no. Maybe Ah should just say yes. He loves meh and Remy's never coming back.
 "Earth to Rogue." Warren was trying to get her attention.
"Hmm."
"Do you want to take a walk in the gardens?" Rogue sucked in air. Every time they went to the gardens he asked her to marry him.
"Warren..." He just smiled and took her hand. He led her to the foyer out of everyone's view. His lips lightly touched her hand.
"Rogue please come with me?" She followed him into the rose garden.
"Warren, Ah don't want to hurt you."
"Then don't. Rogue I know you still think about Remy. But he's not coming back."
"Ah have no idea what ya talkin' 'bout Warren."
"I love you Rogue."
"What?" It was the first time she remembered that anybody has ever said that to her. Not even Remy.
"I love you Rogue. I can't live without you." Then Warren kneeled down on one knee. He reached in his pocket and pulled a 7-carat diamond ring. "I don't even want to know what it is like to live without you. Please don't make me experience that. Please make me the happiest man and marry me. Let's start a future together." Rogue's mind was running all over the place. A part of her was telling her to go with Warren and the other part was telling her to wait on Remy. But Remy never came back. He probably never will. Rogue's decision was made.
"Warren Ah would be honored ta marry ya." Warren grinned and lifted her up and twirled her around. When he placed her on the ground he kissed her hard. He then grabbed her left hand and placed the ring on it.
"You have no idea how happy you made me. How about I take you out on the town. We can tell the X-men later."

It was about 12:00 noon when Rogue and Warren went out for lunch. He insisted that he buy her almost everything she wanted, even though she didn't want him to.
"I want to buy my love all she desires" was his words. But that made her think that he thought he could buy her love when he already had it. Are does he? The annoying part of her brain always did this to her. Are you looking for an easy way out?
"What are you thinking about?" Warren grabbed her hand and looked at her lovingly.
"Just what the future will hold."
"I promise you, it will only bring happiness." He kissed her fingertips gently. "I love you so much."
"Ah love ya too Warren." Then Warren's cell phone rang.
"Hold on." He answered his phone and it looked like he was having a really deep conversation. Must be somebody really important. Rogue tapped her fingers on the table when a pain filled her head.
"Rogue come to me. I gave you your new powers. I want my price and it is you. Come to me." The voice was terrible. It felt like crows cawing mixed with a loud screeching sound. "I need you." Her eyes rolled back and she became dizzy as the voice continued. "Come now. COME!!!!" The voice hurt her brain. She could hardly even think. She was trying to gasp for air that wouldn't come. She couldn't breath. She let out a high pitch scream. She fell to the ground covering her ears trying to keep the voice out. She started twisting and turning, why wouldn't the voice stop. Then she saw a face and everything turned black.

Rogue opened her eyes to find out she was flying in someone's arms. She looked down to see the Institute right below her. She looked up to see Warren looking at her lovingly. He landed in the garden where he proposed to her.
"What happened? You scared me." He grabbed her and hugged her tightly. She placed her arms around his neck.
"Ah don't know. This voice was in mah head. It felt like Ah was dying, but Ah wasn't. The voice was so terrible it hurted. Ah couldn't think at all. Then Ah saw..."
"What did you see love." Warren lifted her face so he could look in her eyes. Her eyes shifted away from his.
"Ah don't remember. Let's go back to the mansion, and Warren please don't tell anyone 'bout this. Ah don't feel like being in the med lab today." Warren looked at her suspiciously but he agreed to it. He felt like she was hiding something from him. The truth was Rogue remembered what she saw and it bothered her. They walked in the mansion hand in hand when they both heard the Professor call them.
Warren, Rogue come to the library please.
"Wonder what happened?"
"Let's go find out sugah." They walked to the library and saw all the X-men there and they all stared at them. There was also another person there. The person that has haunted Rogue's dreams. The person whose face she saw before she fainted. It was Remy Lebeau.
"What is he doing here?" Warren looked at Remy will a deathly glare. He squeezed Rogue's hand even tighter.
"Mr. Lebeau has decided to join the X-men." Charles looked at Warren. He knew he had problems with Remy for something that happened six months ago but he didn't know what and he didn't want to search his head.
"Ya squeezing to tight on my hand sugah." Rogue whispered to Warren.
"Sorry love." He slowly let go of her hand. "So why do you want to join the X-men Lebeau?"
"Oh to many reasons to count." Remy smiled at Rogue as he walked over to her. He took her left hand and leaned down to kiss it never taking his eyes away from hers. When his lips were about an inch away his eyes landed on the 7-carat diamond on her finger. He stopped and she saw his jaw clenched. Rogue looked over at Warren and saw he was smirking when he caught her eye he just shrugged his shoulders. Remy forced a smile as he kissed her hand. "Félicitations (Congratulations) chere."
"Thank ya Remy. Ah appreciate it"
"Like Rogue, you like finally said yes." Kitty picked up her hand and stared at it. "Look at the size of that thing. Wow. Remy, you have no idea how long it took her to say yes. She always said something stood in the way, but I guess it finally moved."
"Kitty!!" This made Remy smile.
"Wonder what it was." Remy glanced at Rogue his grin went wider.
"Don't know but she said yes and that's the important thing."
"Rogue?"
"Yes Professor?"
"Would you mind giving Mr. Lebeau a tour of the Mr. Lebeau a tour?"
"Ah'll do it, follow meh swamp rat." Before she went Warren gave her a kiss on the cheek. Remy followed Rogue as she gave him a tour of the mansion and finally she showed him his room.
"Wow, I never had a room like dis before."
"All the bedrooms here a pretty, Ah don't think there's anything as beautiful as the bedrooms here."
"I can think of one." She looked at him seeing hurt in his eyes that he quickly covered up.
"Remy, Ah..." He walked over to her and grabbed her around the waist.
"Don't chere, jus' tell me why." She looked into his red on black eyes and she couldn't turn away. "Why did you say yes?"
"Because Ah love him. And he loves meh. And we belong together."
"For some reason I don't believe you." Rogue was starting to feel really uncomfortable. Warren could walk in any minute and see her in Remy's arms. But she couldn't move, she couldn't shift her eyes. She finally looked away and moved out of his grasp.
"It doesn' matter what ya think. It only matters what Ah know. And Ah know Ah will be happy with Warren."
"What does your heart believe chere? What does your soul know?"
"Why did ya have ta make things so hard?"
"If you really loved him, it wouldn' be so hard." He made her look into his eyes again. "Or is it hard, because your mind and heart are fighting. Your mind says to go wit' Warren but your heart says to go wit' me. Soon you'll have ta choose chere."
"Ah already chose Remy. Ah chose Warren."
"Alright chere. I'll let you go, si cela est ce que vous voulez." (If that's what you want.)
"It's what Ah want." He walked over and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"As long as you're happy."
"Ah am. Goodbye Remy." She walked out of his room and into her's. Warren was already there reading a magazine.
"Finally. I thought you would never come."
"Ya didn't have to wait up for me."
"But I wanted to Rogue." She started to change into her pajamas. "Why don't you want to wear that chemise I bought you?"
"Ah guess Ah just got used to coverin' mahself up all the time." She jumped into the bed beside him. He put his magazine down and grabbed her in his arms. He kissed her forehead as she snuggled up against him.
"I love you."
"Ah love ya too Warren." But how long will that love last? That was one question Rogue couldn't answer.
