Chapter 11
Death's Kiss
Remy sighed and looked down at his watch. 10:30. He sighed again. "Guess de fille ain't coming." "Ah'd guess you were wrong," snapped a voice. Rogue walked into the vine-covered pavilion.
"Chere!" Remy exclaimed happily. Rogue frowned. "Look Ah don't have all night swamp rat. You better talk quick." Remy's smiled dropped. "Course Chere."
Remy took one last draw from his cigarette and then put it out. Rogue sighed in impatience. "Rogue, Remy.I mean, I want to apologize for how I been behaving lately." Rogue scoffed. Remy ignored her and kept going.
"I've been immature, irresponsible, and most of all selfish. I was so caught up in my pride bein' hurt that I didn't even stop to think how hard it must be fo' you Chere. I'm sorry." Rogue looked out at the sea and fought the urge to cry. "Do ya really think it's that simple Remy? You just show up and apologize and I just forgive you?" "Of course not Chere. Remy knows dat he hurt yo' heart. Dat can't be fixed wit no apology."
Rogue nodded. "Well I'm glad you understand that," Rogue replied. She walked from under of the pavilion. Remy followed her. "Rogue stop."
She did. Remy reached out and put his hand on her shoulder. "It can't be fixed wit words, but maybe it can be fixed wit actions." He slowly turned her around and looked into her eyes. "Let me prove my love for you Chere. Please." For what seemed like forever nothing was heard but the sound of the wind, and the sounds of the night.
Finally Rogue pulled away from Remy and shook her head. "Ah can't Remy. Ah can't ever forgive you for what you did." "I know chere, but Remy is real sorry. I'll do anythin." "No, Remy!" She backed away from him.
"Ah mean you kiss some other girl, disappear without even sayin' goodbye, then you show up with some other girl, and now you want mah forgiveness!?" "Sophia is not another girl," he exclaimed, as he started to feel a bit frustrated. "She's just Sophia!" Rogue scoffed. "Well how do Ah know Ah'm not just Rogue? Huh?" Remy sighed exasperatedly.
"Because I love you!" Rogue crossed her arms and looked at him cynically. "Gee how do Ah know that Remy? Perhaps Ah need you tah kiss another girl tah prove it!" "I don't want ta kiss no other girl but you Chere!" She scoffed.
"Liar." "It's true." Rogue shrugged mockingly. "So prove it." Remy shrugged. "Fine."
Next thing she knew, Rogue found herself in Remy's arms, partaking in a passionate kiss. "No, no no!" screamed her mind. "Stop!" However, as the kiss deepened she stopped listening to her thoughts and just let herself feel. Unfortunately her powers didn't stop. Though the kiss may have seemed like it was going on forever, no sooner did the kiss begin, Rogue's power begin to take affect. Remy felt the sudden sensation that he was literally being pulled from his body. However he didn't pull away.
In spite of this, Rogue also felt it happening and pushed him away. Remy gasped and fell to the ground. Shaking, Rogue looked down at the man. "Remy?" she whispered in a small voice. He didn't move.
"Remy!" she screamed. She fell to her knees beside him. "Please be alive!" She put her head to his chest. She gasped.
She then pulled him into her arms and let the tears flow down her face. "Oh my God," she cried. "What have I done!?" She stroked his face mournfully. "You've killed him" answered her mind. She began to sob.
"I have. I've killed him. I killed Remy." "I think it came from over here." Hearing Scott's voice Rogue felt panic rush through her. "What should I do? When they find out I've killed him." "Rogue? Rogue is that you? Where are you?"
"Run!" screamed her mind. "Run away now!" "Professor over here," yelled Scott. "Run now!" Rogue jumped up at looked down at Remy. She stepped back.
"Ah'm sorry Remy," she sobbed. "Ah'm so sorry." She then turned and ran. She ran as if hell itself was trying to catch her. In her mind everything Remy ever said to her kept playing in her mind. "Ah'm sorry Remy she moaned. "Ah'm so sorry." "Keep running screamed her mind. "Just keep running."
*At the Mansion* Scott took a deep breath and shook his head. "I lost her," he gasped in between breaths." The Professor frowned in confusion.
"But why did she run in the first place." "Professor! Professor!" Charles winced and touched his head. "Not so loud Kitty. Now tell me what is wrong." "It's Remy," she sobbed. "I found him and .he's dead Professor! Remy is dead!"
(Peeks head out of hole.) Uh hi. Please don't kill me! I know I'm a horrible person! But it's not the end. I swear! Just calmly review this chapter and try not to kill me to the next one. Thank you. Read & Review! ;- )
