Prexistence: I think I have figured out a way to update back to normal, though probably would of been better if I did my homework first then write the chapters, but eh. I should be able to update G.D tomorrow, if not I'll stay up till midnight writing it. So until then, Enjoy!
Dislcaimer: All the characters in this story do not belong to me. They belong to some rich people who own them.
Remy waited at the bottom of the stairs waiting for Rogue. Just minutes ago Kitty had come down and told him she would be joining him shortly. He was actually nervous, something he had rarely ever was before going out with a girl. He had dated quite a few women in his life time and none of them ever made him nervous. Sure this wasn't a date, but he still felt uneasy.
"Whatcha waitin here fer?" Logan asked from behind him. Remy glanced over his shoulder to see Logan standing there with a unlit cigar. He kept wondering why the man put it in his mouth and never lite it up, unless he was outside or in the garage.
"Waitin' for Rogue, we goin' out dis evenin'." Remy responded to the older man, then turned and looked up the stairs. She still had not appeared. Logan took the cigar out of his mouth and walked til he was in front of Remy.
"So she finally dumped ice cube?" He asked Remy, raising a eyebrow, remembering her and Bobby were in good terms when he saw them earlier. Remy shook his head.
"Non, she still with him. We just goin out as friends." He said in a disappointed voice.
"Listen to me kid, you better bring her back here before nine or I will hunt you down and. . ." He began to threaten Remy, when the younger man put up his hands.
"Gambit promises to have Rogue back 'ere before nine, M'sieu." He told Logan. 'Only gives Remy fours hours alone with chere without ice breath around.' Remy thought as he looked at the living room and saw Bobby glaring at him over the couch. Remy gave him a sly grin before he heard someone coming down the stairs.
"So ya ready ta go?" Rogue asked Remy with a smile. He smiled back at her and took her hand as she came down to stand next to him and kissed it.
"Anytime y'r ready, chere." He told her. Logan glared at Remy, reminding him of what he had told him earlier before leaving the two southerners alone.
"I was thinkin if maybe we went ta the mall first, there's this perfume Ah've been meanin ta pick up." Rogue told him as they began walking to the door, Remy opened it for her.
"Sure thing." He told her with a smile as he closed the door behind him. They made their way to the garage. Remy went over to Logan's and reached into his pocket for a pair of keys.
"Um, Ah don't think Logan would be happy if ya took his bike. He threatens most that even try to get on it." Rogue warned him, then began to wonder if Logan had gave him the keys when the engine to the bike started.
"Sure he won' mind." Remy told her as she picked up a helmet and placed it on her head. She then hopped on the back of the bike behind Remy and placed her hand's around his waist. Remy lost track of his thinking of a moment, then it came back. "Y' ready?" He asked her.
"Sure thing." She replied as they sped out of the garage, down the driveway and onto the road. "Y' gotta tell Gambit how to get dere, he not from around 'ere." He told her.
"Ya keep goin down this road, then when ya get ta Henrick's road ya make a left. Ya take that all the way down until ya reach the third light, then ya make a right and ya are at the mall." She yelled to him so he would hear her. She held on even tighter, afraid she might fall off. Logan had taken her for rides on his bike before, but he never took her out into the actual highway before.
"Y' alright?" Remy asked her as he felt her clung even tighter to him.
"Ya, Ah'm fine." She lied as they turned the corner. 'Please let meh live.' She prayed silently to herself. 'When Ah get home Ah should have Logan take meh out ridin more often, then next time Ah won't be actin like such a chicken.' She thought to herself before another thought cross her mind. 'Man he really works out a lot.' She smiled to herself as they made a right. 'Finally we are there.' She cheered to herself as they pulled up into a parking space.
"Mebbe Remy should of taken a car, non?" He asked her, Rogue took the helmet off her head. She shook her head. Remy slipped on a pair of sunglasses to hide his eyes.
"Na, it was fun." She lied to him with a fake smile. She climbed off the bike. "While we are here, there is a new restaurant that opened up in the mall. Ah never got a chance ta try it, but Ah heard it is really good." Rogue told him as they began walking to the mall.
"Well den, we'll have to try it den." He said to her as they both stepped onto the curb and walked up to the doors.
"Ah brought some money, the only place Ah'll be able ta afford is Taco Bell, so maybe some other time." She said with a bit of disappointment.
"No need to worry, Gambit will pay for it. A lady should never have to pay for dinner." He smiled at her, making her cheeks turn a bit pink.
'Tell that ta Bobby, first date and we had to pay and it was McDonalds.' She thought silently to herself as they walked pass a few stores.
"So where is dis place at?" Remy asked her, while looking at the inside of a few stores. They passed a Entertainment store, many clothes stores, and a little kid's toy store.
"It's right there." Rogue pointed at the store with that was called Victoria Secret. Remy raised a eyebrow.
'Nice taste, chere.' He thought to himself as they walked in there. 'Wonder if she buys her underwear in dis place as well.' He thought to himself as Rogue went looking through the bottles of perfume. Few second's later Rogue came back to him with a few bottles of perfume.
"Ya gotta smell this it's so pretty." She handed him a bottle of perfume. He sniffed it and pulled away choking. He could still smell the perfume in his nose.
"It's great, chere." He told her with a fake smile. 'Please don' make Remy test dese.' He thought to himself as Rogue took the perfume. She had placed a few bottles back and went to pay for a bottle of perfume and lotion.
Meanwhile Remy walked through the underwear and bra section of the store looking at it's merchandise. "Can I help you, sir?" A woman that looked like she was in her thirties approached him. "Are you looking for something for your girlfriend?" She asked him.
Remy shook his head. "Non, just waitin' for mon friend to finish paying for her perfume." He told the lady innocently. The woman looked at the register and saw Rogue heading their way.
"You two would make a cute couple, well if you need anything just let me know." The woman winked at Remy.
'Y' aren't de only one dat thinks dat.' Remy thought to himself as Rogue approached.
"Ya read ta go sugah?" Rogue asked as stood next to Remy.
"Sure thing." He told her as he held out his arm. She smiled and linked her arm with his as they walked out of the store. "Dere somewhere else y' want to look at or do y' want to go for dinner now?" He asked her as they walked.
"Ah haven't eaten anythin all day. Let's have dinner, then Ah wanna show ya some other places around here." She told him. Remy smiled at her.
"Alright den." He said as Rogue lead him to the restaurant, which had a long line forming out of it.
"Ah guess we should of left earlier, like maybe five this mornin." Rogue said with a bit of disappointment. She had been hoping they had not been busy, but it being a so late, a lot of people had the same idea as her. "Ah guess we can go somewhere else." She told Remy.
"Wait here, chere." He told her as he left to go up to the man that was taking in people. Rogue stood watching Remy say something to the man, who then shook his head no. Remy then whispered something in the man's ear. The man's eyes snapped open and then grabbed a few menu's. He then walked back to Rogue. "Ready chere?" He asked her.
"What did ya say ta him?" She asked him, curious to know how he was able to get the man to let them in, while all these other people had to wait for hours to get in.
"Dat be mon little secret." He told her as they both walked into the restaurant, the man holding the door for both of them.
"Right this way." The man lead them through the restaurant and settled them down at a booth in front of a window that showed out to flowers and a lake in the distance.
"Wow, it's so pretty." Rogue commented as she stared out the window at the landscape, before sitting down. Remy tipped the guy and sat down himself.
Rogue opened a menu and started looking through it. "Hm, not sure of what Ah want." She said as she looked down at the very pricey food. 'Ah don't want ta seem like a pig or get somethin that is really expensive.' She thought to herself as she looked through.
"Get whatever y' wish." Remy told her as he opened his menu and began looking through it. A waitress came up to them.
"Can I start you off with a drink?" She asked them both.
"Ah'll have a ice tea." Rogue told the waitress, who nodded at her.
"And for you sir?" The waitress asked. Remy turned to the back of the menu and looked at the drinks.
'Don' think Rogue would be too happy if Gambit had a little wine with him driving home.' He thought to himself before speaking. "Same." He told the waitress, who then left to get them their drinks.
"This place is so nice Remy, ya didn't need ta take meh here." Rogue told him, lowering her menu.
"Only de best." He told her before folding the menu up, having decided of what he wanted. Rogue looked through hers still undecided.
"So are ya gonna be stayin with us at the mansion?" Rogue asked him, finally deciding what she wanted.
Remy shrugged. "Mebbe." He answered. "Though, been getting a reason to want to stay dere everyday." He replied to her.
"And what reason is that?" She asked him. He smiled at her and was about to answer when the waitress came back with the drinks and set them in front of them.
"Are you ready to order yet?" The waitress asked them. Remy looked over at Rogue.
"In a few minutes." Rogue told the waitress, stalling so she could talk to Remy a bit longer. Also if they got back to the mansion late they could now they the dinner took a while, which it now would. The waitress nodded and left. Remy took off his sunglasses.
"Now what were ya gonna say?" Rogue asked him, her arms leaning on the table.
"Well first Gambit was only suppose to be dere to visit Storm and tell de Professor somethin, den he was gonna leave. Den when he came down de stairs de first day and saw y', he knew he had to get to know y' more." Remy answered her, reaching slowly across the table and taking her hands in his, Rogue did not object.
Rogue then looked down at their hands. "For some reason Remy had dis voice in de back of his head dat kept tellin' him to protect y' as a friend." Remy told her, looking straight into her eyes. "Den de other day when y' got captured, it was more den dat." He whispered to her. Rogue looked lost in his eyes.
"Ah keep tellin mahself Ah'm with Bobby, but. . ." She stopped speaking and raised their hands. "This seems so right and Ah don't know why." She said to him, looking down at their hands.
Remy leaned in closer across the table as did Rogue. Their lips were about to touch when they heard screaming from the other side of the room. The turned away from each other and saw Sabertooth, Scalphunter, and Arclight heading their way. 'Merde, any other time, but not now.' Remy started cursing as he got up from his seat, so did Rogue.
"Sorry to interrupt your dinner, but you got a meeting you are really late for." Scalphunter said with a smirk across his face as Sabertooth started to approach Gambit and Arclight approached Rogue. Remy reached into his pocket and was thankful that he brought his bo staff with him as Sabertooth leapt at him.
He blocked the other mutants claws with his staff. Sabertooth grinned down at him. Remy didn't know of what Sabertooth had in store, but he didn't want to find out. He had known the animal like mutant for a long time and knew of what he was capable of doing. He just hoped that he and Rogue would be able to get out of the restaurant before things got worse.
Arclight approached Rogue, who stared at the other woman. "Like this is going to be hard, if I did I did my homework correctly, you have no powers, only able to absorb. This will be too easy." Arclight smiled at Rogue before Rogue punched her in the stomach. It did nothing to Arclight, who only stood there looking amused.
"I don't think so." Arclight said as she punched Rogue with her super strength, sending her over a few tables. Rogue got up weakly and saw the Arclight coming back. She took off her glove to try and absorb Arclight.
Remy wasn't having much luck either with Sabertooth, he barely missed the claws a few times and the last swing scratched him across the arm, drawing blood. Remy ignored it as he reached into his pocket for a card to charge. He found his pockets were empty and started cursing as Sabertooth leapt at him again, but he was able to dodge out of the way, sending Creed through the window.
Remy saw Scalphunter standing at the bar, one pistol aimed at Rogue. He quickly grabbed a fork from the floor and flung it at the gun, making it explode on impact and knocking the Marauder leader back.
Rogue had been unsuccessful in trying to absorb Arclight, the other woman had been wearing gloves and caught her hand before she could try to absorb her. "That's not nice girly." Arclight mocked her as she reached with her other hand and yanked Rogue's hair back. Rogue yelled out in pain, catching Remy's attention. Rogue was able to see him looking worried over at her, she felt so helpless at the moment. If she could only reach up and touch Arclight's face she would be able to win.
Remy heard her yell out and turned to see the two woman. He was about to help out Rogue when a large paw knocked him in the back of the head. He fell forward unconscious on the ground. Sabertooth snarled as he was about to slash at the Cajun when he heard a gun click. "I wouldn't advise it Creed." Scalphunter warned as he held a new pistol in his hand. Sabertooth just growled at him and picked up the Cajun and slung him over his shoulder.
"No!" Rogue screamed, she had reached onto the table next to her and grabbed a knife and stuck in it Arclight's leg. The other woman then released her and began clutching her leg in pain. Rogue then tried to go help Remy when Arclight grabbed her from behind.
"Don't worry, we'll take good care of him." Arclight whispered in her ear as she threw Rogue into the wall as hard as she could. Arclight smiled at Rogue then turned her attention back to her comrades.
"No." Rogue whispered as she tried to get up, wishing she had Logan's healing factor so she could help. She saw the three enter into a portal that came out of no where and entered it, taking Gambit with them. 'Ah swear, Ah'll get ya back and kick that bitch's ass.' Rogue vowed to herself as she blacked out.
