Disclaimer: Okay, still don't own X-Men and I'm defiantly not making any money off of this so no one sue. You won't get nothing but a headache. Oh, but I do own Ebony. Yay me. I also don't own most of the conversation between Rogue and Risty. It's from X-men Evolution's Growing Pains.
Authors Note: Everyone, y'all need to go and read Mercury Dream's stuff. It's really, really, really, really, really good. (Did I mention really?) A Rogue's Touch and All Grown Up are my favorites. So go read her stuff to. Now, quickly! Yay for Thanksgiving break! I'm hoping to get more than one chapter up this break. That is if I get inspired or not. Keep your finger's crossed y'all. Also, part of this part of the story takes place during Growing Pains like I said above. But there are some changes. Like, the groups sitting together, everyone knows they're mutants, Kelley's already principle and Lance and Kitty are already together. Mostly it's only the part to introduce Risty so the other stuff in the episode isn't mentioned. Thanks all, hope you enjoy.

Chapter 23: New Friends
The adults walked quietly into the mansion, noticing the silence. Henry McCoy came out of the library smiling. "I take it the conference went well?" he asked, watching Meranda peel off her jacket.
"It was not as positive as we had hoped it would be," Ororo replied smiling sadly at her friend as she made her way towards the stairs. "How were the children?"
"Great, we had a lot of fun," Henry replied as he noticed Logan's glare and Charles amused expression. "Is there a problem?"
"You mean you left the lab bub?" Logan almost groaned as he looked at the blue man.
Hank shot Meranda a glance before answering. "Yes of course, why wouldn't I?"
Meranda grinned and walked over to Henry wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing his cheek. "Thanks Doc," she smirked as she noticed him blush and heard Logan's claws extract. She let him go and turned to Logan, holding out her hand. "Pay up bub. You owe me a hundred bucks."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was a cool Monday morning at the Xavier institute. The silence that filled the girls bedroom, much to Rogue's disappointment, was broken by a shrill sound cutting through the air.
"Rogue! Like, Rogue, get up," Kitty said shaking her friend. "You're, like, gonna be late," the Valley girl exclaimed shaking the Goth harder.
Rogue mumbled incoherently into her pillow before rolling over and pulling the blanket over her head.
"I got it Kitty," Meranda said from the doorway, walking into the room.
"Like, good luck," Kitty said before phasing through the wall.
Meranda walked over to Rogues bed and lifted up the blanket, looking at her sleeping girl. "Come on Sugar, time to get up."
Rogue groaned and looked up at Meranda with sleepy eyes. "Do Ah hafta?"
"Yep," Meranda smiled and threw the blanket back. "Come on, Remy's down there waiting."
"Fahne," Rogue said rolling out of bed and grabbing her cloths and bathroom bag. She'd been up late working on an English paper and had no motivation to get up that morning.
"Go ahead and use my bathroom hon. There's a line still for the other one," Meranda said as she began to make Rogue's bed.
"Thanks mamma," Rogue yawned as she headed out the door and down the hall.
Meranda smiled as she set Mr. Marbles on the bed. 'It's good to be home with my baby.'
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Remy sat on his bike, cigarette between his lips as he waited for Rogue. He was still thinking about what she'd told him Friday night. 'If Ah evah git mah hands on dat boy,' he thought as he took one final drag and threw the butt into the gravel, snuffing it out with his heel. He looked up as the front door opened and saw Meranda standing there smiling at him. He smiled back and saluted her as Logan also came into view. Logan growled at the boy and shook his head once.
"She's on her way Gumbo," he grunted.
"Merci mon ami," Remy replied as he saw Rogue run down the stairs and towards the bike.
"Bye mamma, bye daddy," she said kissing each of her parents before running to Remy's bike and hopping on, accepting the helmet he offered her. "Hey sugah, sorry Ah'm late. Overslept."
"No problem ma chere," Remy replied revving the engine to life. "Remy know it be hard to wake up when y' dreamin o' dis handsome face."
"Dream on Swamp Rat," Rouge replied grinning as she wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, lightly running her fingers over his well chiseled stomach. "Now drive."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Rogue groaned as she exited her English class and headed into the hall. She hated English. Not because she wasn't good at it, it was after all her best subject, but because none of the Brotherhood or X-Men were in it with her.
She stopped at her locker and looked around as she put in the combination, wondering where her friends were and more importantly where her Cajun was.
"Hey Rogue," Amanda said walking up next to her. "How was English?"
"Hey Amanda. It was fahne. Where is everybody?" Rogue asked as she closed her locker and swung her backpack over her shoulder.
"They all went ahead to the pep rally to get seats. I had to meet with Mr. Rinks so I told them I'd find you." Amanda replied the two began walking towards the gym.
"Oh," Rogue replied slightly disappointed. She'd been hoping that her and Remy could ditch it for an early lunch but some things couldn't' be helped. "What's this one for anyway?" Rogue asked as they stopped behind a crowd trying to enter the gym, everyone glancing over at them wearily.
"The Girls Soccer game tonight. Since it's for the championship and all. Jean and the rest of the team are going to be down on the floor so Scott wanted to make sure we'd be where she could see us," Amanda said ignoring their glares.
Rogue glared right back at the crowd before they walked into the gym behind them. "Ah don't see why she stays on the team," Rogue stated. "They don't even let her play and treat her lahke shit evah since they found out she's a mutant."
"Guess it makes her feel like she's not giving in by staying on the team," Amanda replied as she spotted Kurt and waved. "They're up there."
Rogue looked to where the girl was waving and sure enough there was Remy's smirking face staring down at her from behind a pair of sunglasses. She also noticed the large amount of empty space circling her friends.
They started up the steps when a finger tapped Rogue's arm. She jumped a bit and spun around to see a girl with purple hair and khaki pants and brown shirt grinning at her.
{AN: Beginning of transcript from Growing Pains}
"Excuse me. How long do these assemblies usually last?" the girl questioned, revealing a British accent.
"Huh? Oh, too long. But at least it gets us out of class," Rogue replied turning to Amanda and waving her on. "Ah'll be up there in a minute," she said softly to her before turning back to the new girl.
"Right, class. My next won should be…"
Rogue looked over the piece of paper the girl held and looked at the schedule. "Geometry with Mr. Barton. You're new." It was a statement more than a question.
"Yeah, I'm Risty Wilde from Manchester England." Risty grinned broadly.
"Ah'm Rogue. Hang out afterwards and Ah'll show you where Barton's class it," Rogue said {AN: End of transcript from Growing Pains} as she started up the bleachers stopping mid step. "Hey, ya got someone else ta sit with?"
"Uh, no. I don't really know anyone yet," Risty replied.
"Well ya can come sit with us if ya lahke. If ya don't mind sittin with a bunch a crazy people," Rogue offered smiling.
"Sure. It'll be like being back home," Risty replied, looping her mind through Rogue's as she let Rogue lead them up the bleachers, stopping before the group.
"Bonjour mon amore," Remy said rising and taking Rogue's hand, kissing it tenderly, before pulling her close, catching her off guard, and wrapping his arm around her waist. "Dis Cajun be missin' y' ma chere."
Rogue rolled her eyes before looking back at everyone else. "This is Risty ya guys. She's new."
Everyone waved or gave some form of greeting as they argued amongst themselves, not really taking much notice.
"And Risty, this is everyone, who lahke's ta forget there manners and act lahke a bunch a apes," Rogue replied testily as she looked back at the new girl.
"It's no big," Risty replied smiling. "Hey, you guys are those mutants that were on TV a few months ago," she said as the realization dawned on her. This caught everyone's attention as they all stopped whatever they were doing to stare at her.
Remy felt Rogue tense in his arms and he turned and glared at the purple haired girl. Something about her just didn't feel right. "Oui, what's y' point p'tite?"
"Remy!" Rogue hissed, noticing the tension in his voice.
"Nothing really. I think it's cool," Risty replied going to sit next to Wanda and Evan while patting the seat next to her for Rogue.
Rogue grinned and looked up at Remy. "Now be nice Swamp Rat," she whispered to him as she pulled away and turned to sit. Remy caught her around the waist again and pulled her close, whispering into her ear. "Remy don't trust her Cherie. Somet'in' bout her non right."
"Well Ah do lahke her, so be nice. Fer meh," Rogue returned sitting next to Risty and pulling him down with her.
"So who is everybody?" Risty asked Rogue as the Principle came onto the floor and tried to quiet everyone.
"That's Scott, Kurt, Amanda, Evan, Wanda, Jubilee, Piotr, John, Amara, Kitty, Lance and this is Remy," Rogue said pointing everyone out.
"Wow. Now offense, but some of you don't look like you'd hang out together," Risty replied looking mostly at Scott, Kitty and then at Rogue and Wanda.
"Well, most of us sorta live together," Rogue replied as Remy looped his arm around her waist and she leaned against him, resting her head on his shoulder while they leaned against the seat behind them. She laced her fingers with his and crossed her legs, looking over at Risty.
"Must be a big house," Risty stated eyeing the couple. "So, whose single?"
"Non one here p'tite," Remy replied as he kissed Rogues head before turning his attention back to the principle, rolling his eyes at the man.
"No one that Ah know of at the mansion," Rogue replied. "Unless you count Pietro and Freddy down there," she said pointing toward the far wall where two of the Brotherhood stood. Toad stood off to the side, flirting madly with his cheerleader. "That is if ya have no taste whatsoevah."
"Thanks but I think I'll pass," Risty replied laughing as she leaned back and watched the assembly, keeping a close eye on Rogue and Remy who snuggled closer, whispering to one another in French till the assembly was over.
Authors Note: Yeah, short I know but this is what I like to call filler. And as all of you know (Especially Megan) I hate writing filler. But I had to introduce Risty and kinda get a little more on track so our story can move on. I have great plans and they get longer everyday. Hope you enjoyed it and I'll try my best to get another one up tomorrow. Take care and much love and now onto the shout outs.
Jukebox ~ Yay, hopefully you were satisfied again. Next one will be longer. Promise.
Koosei ~ Yeah, but she has Remy to comfort her now. And her mom and dad too. Logan still hasn't chosen yet, but he will. (Hopefully.) And don't worry, Rogue will torture him more. That's what fathers are for. (Not really, but hey why not?) Thanks for reading and reviewing.
Charice ~ Thank you. You're too sweet. And thank your friends too, I appreciate all the support. Keeps me writing. (hint hint)
Invader ZaiFae ~ Yeah, it's Rogue and Gambit. They HAVE to cuddle. Otherwise what's the point? I know they didn't really make out, but Hank kinda interrupted them before they could really get into it. (the alcohol was mostly there to help). Jubilee just seems like she'd be a happy drunk and I'm glad it made you laugh. Made me laugh too while I was writing it. Not as much as the Rogue asking Logan about sex chapter did, but I did giggle a bit for that last one. Anyway, enough with my rant. I just got some of that time that I don't have enough of and so I'm using it to my advantage. I really need a lot more than I'm getting though. Hope you liked.
dArK-pSyBoRg18 ~ done and done. Enjoy.
Gothic Cajun ~ Yeah, but she has Remy to comfort her and believe me he will. Thank you so very much. I liked Beast's personally. Some of them were hard to come up with, but not his. I just love Beast. He's so cool. Anyway, thanks for the review.
Arain Rowan ~ Yeah, lets just hope he doesn't figure out she cheated huh? Lol, although that could be funny. I thought it would be kinda fun to give Rogue a bad streak. And, yeah, we all know how Pyro and Amara are now. Logan still hasn't chosen yet, but he will, eventually. Right now he's not with anyone really. Thanks for the review.
Aro ~ Thank you. Hope it wasn't too sad though. Hope you enjoyed this one too.
Duo/Folken/TK ~ Yeah, and he will be when he finally finds out. I've heard the game played different ways and played it different ways before, with the I've never and all. Thanks for the rules though. And the name. Appreciate it.
Denial ~ You noticed! Yes, it was a wedding ring. I forgot to put how she got it back from Townshend in the chapter, but I had it in my written out copy. Truth or dare is way over done I know. And I'm glad you liked it. And Hank is pretty awesome. I figured since this story is mainly about Rogue (and Remy of course) that I would go into her a little more. Hope you enjoyed this one too.
Kazzeh Sodapop ~ Stop reading my mind cause it's scary. I was actually going to have Cody make an appearance later on. Mostly so I can do what Mercury Dream demanded or at least offer some kind of punishment towards him. (If you didn't see her review it was mostly Have Remy Kill Cody.) Hope you loved this one too.
Lightspeed Suzuka ~ That'd be about the it. And now he must choose. What's a Meranda Plushie though? Hope you liked, let me know.
Ishandahalf ~ I know, stupid angst. But sometimes it's necessary for Remy to show his uber-sweetness. And yes, I've figured out the great mystery. I'm glad too cause I was starting to get worried. Don't worry it'll only be a few more chapters away. As quick as my crack bunny can work.
Mercury Dream ~ lmao! When I read your review I started laughing my ass off. Don't worry, Remy too is having homicidal thoughts towards Cody. Glad you enjoyed the chapter. Thank you for your praise. As always, it means so much to me. Yes we're going to delve more into Rogue's past later when it comes back to bite her, and what kind of girlfriend would she be if she didn't show him the tattoo? Now that's all Remy's bugging me about. And giving me ideas of how he can kill Cody. I can't wait for your updates. I'm going to try to get some more up this week. Take care and don't worry, Cody will get his.
AngieX ~ Thank you. I mostly described the cloths cause I had this set picture in my head and really wanted to make sure everyone else saw it too. I'm glad you liked so many parts. Ya had to love Hank though. It was too great, even in my opinion. I can't believe one of my quotes is going on a best list. I feel so honored. Thank you.
Lovablelatina ~ Thank you. Yes Rogue will be able to kiss him with out the barrier, it'll just be a few more chapters. And yes, Logan will eventually come to terms with his baby girl dating a Cajun thief. So there's two questions answered, but both will take some time. And Logan will eventually decide as well, so I don't know if that helps with the anticipation any, since it doesn't really answer the big how, but I hope it does a bit. I'm the same way when I'm reading and know how frustrating it can be. Well, hope you liked. Let me know.
Lunadesa ~ I don't know what to say. Thank you hon. I'm touched.
Rogue77 ~ Shh! Don't tell everyone I'm a weirdo. There might be some who don't know it yet. I'm going to try to wait to write the other one after I finish this one. Otherwise I'm afraid I might not finish this one and have you after my head. Have to agree with you, beer is not the greatest thing in the world. Vodka's not bad though. Especially in a screwdriver. And yeah, Cody definitely needs to lose his manly parts since he's proven he's not a man. And I know I was wishing Remy was my boyfriend by the end of the chapter. Updates are good. I know I love them. So here's yours.
Take care all and the next chapter will be longer and up a lot sooner. I can promise you that much. Love to all.
Authors Note: Everyone, y'all need to go and read Mercury Dream's stuff. It's really, really, really, really, really good. (Did I mention really?) A Rogue's Touch and All Grown Up are my favorites. So go read her stuff to. Now, quickly! Yay for Thanksgiving break! I'm hoping to get more than one chapter up this break. That is if I get inspired or not. Keep your finger's crossed y'all. Also, part of this part of the story takes place during Growing Pains like I said above. But there are some changes. Like, the groups sitting together, everyone knows they're mutants, Kelley's already principle and Lance and Kitty are already together. Mostly it's only the part to introduce Risty so the other stuff in the episode isn't mentioned. Thanks all, hope you enjoy.

Lunadesa ~ I don't know what to say. Thank you hon. I'm touched.
Rogue77 ~ Shh! Don't tell everyone I'm a weirdo. There might be some who don't know it yet. I'm going to try to wait to write the other one after I finish this one. Otherwise I'm afraid I might not finish this one and have you after my head. Have to agree with you, beer is not the greatest thing in the world. Vodka's not bad though. Especially in a screwdriver. And yeah, Cody definitely needs to lose his manly parts since he's proven he's not a man. And I know I was wishing Remy was my boyfriend by the end of the chapter. Updates are good. I know I love them. So here's yours.
Take care all and the next chapter will be longer and up a lot sooner. I can promise you that much. Love to all.
