Forgiveness
Okay now it's time for a little Romy and now I'm going to start using Rogue's POV more often. Oh and I got a lot of questions about Betsy she'll be in later chappies and she'll be more older then Rogue. So thanks for all your reviews and keep reading because soon the plot deepens.
Chapter 8:
Rogue brushed the sweat and bangs from her eyes, then gave the punching bag a strong round house kick sending it swinging.
Rogue was glad to be back in the old base. It felt much more comfortable and it was much bigger, they needed the space for the X-men it had been to much crowded before.
The other reason she needed the space was because she could get away from everyone a lot easier. It wasn't because she didn't like crowds she had gotten over that fear a long time ago well she still was a tad uneasy around HUGE crowds but who isn't. No it wasn't crowds, it was the way everyone acted it was different, well okay it was just plain weird. Every time she would walk in the room everyone would stop talking and stared.
She was suspicious of it all, yes, but there was no time to try and figure out the answer this had been the only break she had gotten all week. Garret had been seriously overworking her it was kind of annoying but she did absorb one of the henchmen and knew a lot more then they did, just not enough.
The man she had absorbed wasn't the smartest one in the bunch and if he was then she'd hate to have to absorb the dumb one. He just obeyed Sinister the code name Essex used.
Everyone worked on their own little projects. She just had a tad more then others.
Today she had an hour to try and sort things out. It was just so confusing, truth be told she really didn't know if it was worth finding out. Yet curiosity drove her to no end.
After the fight with Essex she'd been having these strange dreams it was always the same dream. She was in a place covered in darkness and fog. She was running from these ghost like beings each screaming at her. Then there was other voices they seemed so far away and yet so close. But no matter what she couldn't here what it was saying. It always ended when the ghosts finally got her and in every dream they would. When they got her they'd wrap their cold dark hands around her and she would be overwhelmed in them drownding in them, then she'd wake up sweating and shaking.
It bugged her to no end. She wanted to know what the far away voice was saying. She had a feeling they were some how connected to her past.
Rogue gave a shiver.If those ghosts were part of her past she didn't think she wanted to go back to it.
Garret was little help he wouldn't tell her anything about how she came to the MPRS he just said they saved her on a mission. God Garret was being such an ass lately.
I mean she knew he wanted to look like a leader, strong and independent. But it just didn't work out for him.
Rogue sighed and gave the punching bag one last whack. Then turned to leave when she spotted someone sitting on a pile of gym mats.
He had long almost crimson hair that fell to surround his long tan face and high cheek bones, He was quite hot but it was his eyes that caught her the most. They were burning ruby orbs that lay in pools of darkness.
A arrogant grin played slowly onto his lips. As he noticed her stare. She flickered her eyes away then brought them back raising an eyebrow and cocking her head to one side.
"Did ya need somethin boy." She stated bluntly. She didn't like that grin and the way his eyes seemed to travel along her body eyeing her up.
It was his turn to raise an eyebrow. "Boy, chere?"
He stood up, jumping off the pile and landing gracefully next to her.
"Remy be all man."
He then leaned closer till his mouth was centimeters away from her ear and said quietly
"He'd beh happy to show yeh some proof."
How he made those words sound like they should be in a rated X movie was beyond her.
She had stiffened up the moment his warm breath had hit her neck. He backed away with a satisfied smirk on his face.
God he made her want to purr. Wait. WHAT? Now she was just pissed. This guy said eight words and she wanted to screw him. No pull yahself tagethah yeh are not goin tah fall for slime lahke hahm. She wanted to just punch hahm out, but she decided on a different way to seek her revenge.
Remy's POV
He had watched her punch at the bag. Mon dieu she was beautiful. So graceful and yet so deadly he thought as he watched the bag swing wildly as she hit it with a strong kick. He winced. Ouch, remind Remy not to get her pissed. She landed a few more strong punches.
He couldn't believe what Xavier had told the Ex-Acolytes and Brotherhood members when they had left the MRPS's small base. He had told them all about what had happened. He felt what Xavier did was wrong but it must have been really hard for him to do.
He remembered when he and the other ex-Acolytes had first came there three years ago, a year after the incident. Remy had asked about the lil petite with white bangs. Kitty had looked at him face filled with pain and ran from the room. Storm then later explained grimly that Rogue had died. Remy's heart went out to them.
Yet he couldn't believe through out every thing Rogue was now standing before him beating the shit out of a punching bag. (And this was her hour or two off.)
Remy suspected Garret was keeping her busy with tasks that kept her away from the X-men. That boy seemed very manipulative at times.
Remy just shook his head and looked up to find Rogue standing near the pile of mats he was on, eyebrow raised and head cocked to the side. He grinned seeing her eyes look him over. Dieu she had the most belle eyes like living emeralds.
"Did ya need somethin boy" She asked flatly.
He raised an eyebrow at her remark and jumped down beside her.
"Boy, chere?"
"Remy be all man." He gave an evil smirk. Then leaned in ever so close to her ear and felt her stiffen up.
She smelled a lot like lillys he noted hoping that he'd get another chance like this in the future of course he'd be doin' a lot more then just smellin her.
"He'd be glad to show you some proof if you wish mon chere." He whispered seductively.
He backed away when a wave of desire hit him from his empathy. His smirk turned into a grin. Maybe Remy's future shall happen sooner then he tink. He'd love to feel her body-. Non not yet yeh got tah reel her in before yah start tinkin dose nody toughts.
She seemed to be in a daze then a scowl twisted onto her face. But then suddenly it turned into a seductive smirk. Yes reel her in.
She walked slowly walked closer hip swinging. Closer and closer. She came up so close that he could almost feel the heat comin' off her.
She placed her hands onto his chest dragging them down ever so slowly down his chest. The touch of her sent his skin a fire.
She slipped her face near his and licked her lips slowly. His eyes widened he expected a result but not this forward. He shivered as one of her hands paced over a sensitive area.
She slipped her hands off him part of him wanted to grab her hands and place them back on but the other was curious of what she would do next.
She leaned in as if to kiss him. "How man-" She purred her hands back on him. "will you be if I take off the part that makes yeh man!"
And before he could get away she punched him hard in his gut.
He fell hard to the ground groining muttering French swear words under his breath. He got louder as his breath returned.
She just stood there hand on her hip. Trying to hold back her laughter.
She then started swearing back at him in words he didn't even now. He looked up in shock. She then said
"Si vous sortez votre colère en français assurez-vous que la fille que vous étiez flirter juste avec ne le sait pas."
She then switched back into English and said "Oh and if you ever try that kind of shit again I'll make that threat I said come true and then where would you be?"
She gave him a mock sweet smile and walked out the gym doors. Remy just laid there staring at her ass. "Merde now dere's a belle femme Remy must have." He said with a grin.
A little Romy for your day. Sorry it took so long but I had this whole different chapter to go with it but in the end it didn't work out so I just kept this and I'm saving my other thing for my next chappie. Well hope you enjoy. Oh and before I forget I'm going to add in more OC's in my next chapter and then get you familiarized with them and after that I'll have you vote on the ones I'll focuse on more. But of course I'm keeping ROMY the main part.
