Unstable Nights
Rogue gazed blankly up at the starry skies as she rested upon the rooftop of the institute. Her eyes slowly collapsed as she released a grunt of frustration, the Cajun's thoughts swimming strongly through her already complex mind. She grew distracted by such thought noise that she hadn't even noticed the rather loud footfalls that now approached her now did she sense one leaning over her. Her eyes parted slowly as she jumped to find Remy leaning over her.
" You ok?" He asked as he sat down beside her and looked over to her perplexed face with an expression of concern. She only shrugged it off and smirked.
" Oh so, de , gente, express concern for me now?" Rogue said with a distinct Cajun accent. Remy frowned at her as she mimicked him and shook his head.
" Dat's cold Chere."
Rogue looked a bit surprised at Remy's response.
" What'd ah do?" she asked softly in a genuine tone of confusion.
Remy now looked to her with more concern. " Come on, we goin' to see de' professor."
With that he grabbed Rogue by the gloved hand and led her inside the house, heading straight for Charles' room.
" Remy stop, Ah can handle you by mahself." She said as she rubbed her forehead.
Remy then realized why she was struggling. " Tell me..what memories do you have?" He said in a warm tone as he gently embraced her and ran his fingers through her hair, hoping to sooth her troubled mind, he only hoped by verbally expressing her issues it helped, if not he was still going to speak with the professor.
" Ah know how to speak French now and Ah know how ta pickpocket.Ah remember dat' kids at de Guild used to call you a demon. Ya father's name is Jean." Rogue trailed off as she slipped Remy's wallet into her pocket, he quickly took her hand and narrowed his eyes at her. " Get a grip Chere.just try to forget about what you learned."
Rogue handed him back his wallet and shook her head before bursting into tears, it was too much for her to handle so she fainted in his arms.
" Merde." He said as he carried her to the Professor's room and pounded on his door.
Charles answered looking to Remy with concern as he held Rogue.
" What happened to her?"
" She made contact wit' me earlier an' it stuck wit' her.it was too much an so she just fainted."
" Well I hope for her sake that your past was a cheery one, she has absorbed so many burdens from others that it has been taking a toll upon her lately.Well come on lets get her down to Sick Bay.
Charles led the way as Remy followed carrying the fragile girl in his arms. His face grew solemn as he looked down to her and shook his head, as a sense of guilt washed over him. He knew that he should have reported it right away but she seemed unaffected and so did she but perhaps she was masking it to hide her vulnerability.
