Author's Note- This is supershort, I know, but the next ipdate might be a little while, I'm working on two new stories right now.

Callian- I can't believe it's finished (tear), I know how computers can be, mine has a tendancy to freeze up everytime I restart it.

Chronicles Bailey- "We love to see you smile," sorry, couldn't resist. Thanks!

RemyLeVampiress- Not many people remember Pete, he was only in Excaliber, and some of the X-Force comics. Yep, it's Kete, I recomend ValleyGurl101's story, or HeroesforGhosts', assuming that her's is updated, also the story "Excaliber: the Beginnings of an End" there are some more, and I've written a bunch.

DazzlinShorty- About time, huh?

DemonicGambit- I think we all have that dream.

ishandahalf- At least you didn't have to wait as long for this update. I have no promises about the next one. Except that they may get a small purple pet.

SickmindedSucker- I'm glad you liked it, I was hoping it would come out okay.

Interlude- the Morning After

I got a taste of paradise
That's all I really need to make me stay
I got a taste of paradise
If I had it any sooner you know
You know I never would have run away
From my home
Heaven can wait
And all I got is time until the end of time
I won't look back
-Meatloaf

Rogue awoke with her head pillowed on Remy's chest. She sighed happily. She could get used to this. She stretched out her legs experimentally and winced. "Sore?" She looked up, started, to see that Remy was already awake.

"A little. Um... mornin'."

He smiled, kissing the top of her head. "Mornin', chére. Ready ta get up?"

"No," she admitted. "Ah kinda like it here."

Remy chuckled. "Den we'll wait. Remy has no desire ta see any of de others anyhow."

At the cabin

Kitty awoke and stretched languidly. "Pete?"

"Yeah?" Pete asked turning back from his computer.

"Just wondering where you were."

He smiled. "Right here, luv. Sleep well?"

She grinned at him. "After last night? I slept like a baby." He chuckled standing to join her on the bed.

"Want me t' drive ya home?"

"The others aren't expecting me until noon," Kitty smiled up at him.

"That gives us a good three hours," Pete smiled back as he let his gaze travel over her naked form. "What shall we do with the time?"

Back at the Institute, upstairs

Betsy gently shook Logan's shoulder as he showed signs of a nightmare. He awoke instantly and his eyes immediately sought her out. "You okay, luv?"

"Yeah, just fine." She curled up around his tense form.

"Want to talk about it?"

"I don't remember. That's the damn problem. I have all these dreams about my life, good dreams and bad dreams and all I ever remember are little bits and pieces, nothing that makes since and nothing that really clicks. I hate it... I can't remember anything important... hell, I can't even tell you how old I am."

Betsy stood and got dressed in the clothing she kept in his room. She threw a pair of sweatpants at him. "Come on, luv, you need coffee."

Logan allowed himself a grin sliding the pants on. "I knew there was a reason I kept ya around. You know me so well."

"It should be a crime to put clothes on your body," Betsy said sighing with mock-sadness.

Logan grinned. "Thanks, darlin'."

Downstairs.

"Get back here, Ray!" Bobby yelled.

"I'm sorry!" Ray called back. "I didn't think she'd drink that much!"

"Ray, you're a dead man, just stop running and face it!" Bobby yelled at his friend.

"Bobby!" Jubilee called holding her head. Bobby stopped chasing Ray and walked over to his girlfriend.

"What is it?"

"Could you please be a little quieter? My head's killing me." Bobby gently kissed her on the forehead.

"Okay, Jubes." He took off after Ray again, this time being careful to not disturb Jubilee.

"What's going on?" Logan asked grabbing Ray and Bobby pulling both of them to a stop.

"I'm going to kill Ray for getting my girl so drunk last night and making her upset," Bobby explained, quite calmly.

"Ah," Logan said slowly. "Okay, carry on."

"Thanks," Bobby nodded before taking off after Ray again.
