A/N: Been a while since I last uploaded a chapter! Been busy with school but I am now on Thanksgiving break so I'll be writing more! Got three weeks of school left in this semester so once this semester is done i'll be back to writing much, much more.
Anyway! Here is chapter 11! Enjoy!
Chapter 11:
Kitty walked through the bedroom door, scaring Rogue in the process as she announces her entrance. "I am helping you look good for your date tonight, so no arguing."
"Uhm… okay, but Ah can do it Kitty." Rogue sighs.
"Nope. I am gonna make you drop dead gorgeous for your date. I'm thinking you wear that great backless dress with the tie yourself strings in the back, a pair of lacy gloves and black heels." Kitty starts rummaging through her closet, ignoring the southerner's cried of protest. "Here, go put these on."
Kitty tosses back a lacy pair of panties, Rogue catching it before it hit the ground. Rogue's face burns red as her friend kept riffling through her wardrobe. "Kitty, Ah love ya, but ah can dress mahself fo' tonight.… Ah do love the dress ya picked out, but only cause ah was gonna wear it anyway."
"Oh good! I can help you with your hair then!" Kitty beamed.
Rogue sighs, but let's Kitty help her with her hair. She used a natural curly hair remedy to make some of her curls pop out more in an elegant way, her white fringes were framing her face nicely as Kitty worked her magic. Stepping back, Kitty looks at Rogue, then takes a glance to her alarm clock when Rogue was busy looking at herself in her mirror. "Oh, would you look at that! We should, like, get you downstairs so you can meet up with Remy!" Kitty smiles and motions Rogue to get up.
"Well let meh grab ma bag-" Rogue gets up, looking for her black satchel purse, but Kitty had grabbed it and shoved it into her hands.
"Wouldn't want to keep him waiting, now do we?" Kitty starts to push Rogue towards her bedroom door.
Rogue rolls her eyes but heads out anyway, ignoring some things the valley girl was talking to her about-mainly because she wanted to get to her date with her boyfriend whom is waiting for her for god's know how long.
Remy was anxiously but patiently waiting for her, his hands either fumbling with the box in his pocket, or adjusting his cuffs or tie, or checking his hair in the window of a parked car in the garage. His heart skips a beat when Rogue came out, a small smile on her lips. "Hey shugah. Where're ya takin' meh?"
Remy grins, kissing her hand while gazing into her eyes. "Some place special t'night."
He takes out the keys to one of the cars that was parked in the mansions garage, opening the passenger door for Rogue as she gets inside. Remy takes a deep breath, then enters the drivers side and turns the car on. The car hymns to life and they roll out of the mansion grounds, heading towards New York City.
Remy parks in front of a fancy French restaurant, handing the keys over to a valet to park their car somewhere else. He takes Rogue's hand to which she smiles at him and heads inside.
As they sat down at their table, Rogue told Remy how Kitty was insistent on helping her get ready for the evening, while he listened with a small smile on his face but a knot of nerves in his stomach. But he wasn't going to give away his anxiety, as he's very good at hiding his emotions during certain times. His eyes scanned her face and her eyes, noticing the curl in her lips, how her fingers would sometimes fidget with pushing some strands of white hair out of her eyes, the way she bit her lip whenever she was trying to find a better word to describe something politely.
They enjoyed dinner with wine and talking, Remy so far happy with how everything was going so far. He pays for the bill, telling Rogue dinner was on him tonight, which then makes her put her purse back in her lap. Taking her by the hand, Remy leads her outside, walking down the sidewalk a little bit to wait for their car to arrive. Rogue sighs in delight as she leans her body against his, a content smile on her face. "Y' like dinner, mon amour?" Remy smirks.
"It was delicious, sugah. Thank ya. Though…ah do hope that wasn't all ya had planned." Rogue smiles up at him, lovingly.
Remy grins. "Course not, de night's jus' begun."
As Remy sees the car turning a corner, he couldn't help but hear a couple beside him getting out of their own car bickering. "Can you believe how many more mutants there are? Just terrible. And on top of that it seems like they are multiplying like rabbits." An older woman expectorated as she took a drag from her cigarette. "Mutant children are even more worse than the parents that they come from. Little abominations."
"Yes dear, there does seem to be quite an overabundance of these pests. Perhaps the government will make a program or something to control mutant population, or put them in their own zoo's of sort." The older gentleman drags out as he walks with his wife towards the door.
Remy couldn't help but make a face at the whole conversation and glare off to the side, until he felt Rogue's grip on his arm tighten. He could tell from the look on her face that she was uncomfortable and knew she would turn around and give them a piece of her mind if the car hadn't just arrive for them. Remy gets in the drivers seat after opening Rogue's door, then drives off. "Ah can't believe they said that so casually." Rogue huffs out, her arms tightly over her chest as she glared out the window.
"Now let's not let dem ruin our night out with dere ignorance, chère. 'Sides, they might be kickin' the bucket soon anyway-'soecially dat lady." Remy shrugs.
Rogue sighs. "Well, ah don't care what anybody thinks fo' tonight. Ah wanna know what ya plannin'."
Remy grins. "'S a secret. Can't be spoilin' any surprises, non?"
Rogue grins back, then notices him taking them to the cliffside that's near the mansion to park. She remembers from absorbing both Scott and Jean that Scott would always take them here. Rogue raises an eyebrow and tilts her head curiously. "Why we heah?"
"C'mere an 'll show y'." Remy winks.
They get out of the car, Rogue putting her hands on the wooden railing, the view to Bayville all laid out below. "Ah can't tell ya how many tahmes ah've seen this view.." She shakes her head. "There somethin' special ah'm supposed to see heah sug-"
Rogue turns her head only to find Remy kneeling in front of her gazing at her. She gasps and covers her mouth with a hand, tears starting to prickle the corners of her eyes. Remy smiles genuinely as he takes out the box he had in his pocket. "Well, I t'ought it be a great view t' propose t' y'. Anna Marie… would y' do dis T'ief an honor and become my wife?"
Rogue felt the words caught in her throat but she shakes her head vigorously as she steps forward and throws her arms around him. "Yes, ah will ya swamp rat." She sobs out with a huge smile.
Remy grins, kissing her deeply, placing the ring on her gloved finger. Rogue brings him closer and held his face in her hands gently. They pull apart, Remy chuckling a bit as Rogue wipes her tears and comments how Kitty will probably complain about how much time it took her to help her with her make up. Her eyes look down at her ring finger, a smile plastered on her lips. "When do ya think we should tell the others?" She asks, her voice soft.
"Well, I asked Kurt fer y' hand t'day, den I asked Kitty to help distract y' so I could get everyt'in' togetheh." Remy rubs his lightly bearded chin, a smirk on his face. "But we can announce it tomorro' if y' like."
"Yeah, ah don't wanna be bombarded tanight. Ah just wanna blissfully enjoy this." Rogue sighs with a smile on her face.
Remy dips his head down and places a gentle kiss on her lips. "Je t'aime, mon amour."
"Ah love ya too, Remy." Rogue kisses him back. She then grins, looking at her ring again. "Ah'm gonna be Mrs. Remy Lebeau now huh?"
"Mhm~" Remy smiles into her hair.
"Good, cause now all ya fan girls will know ya got a wife."
"A badass wife at dat, chère."
"Damn straight."
"Why don' we go back and finish off our night?" Remy lowers his voice, making Rogue's heart beat faster.
"What are ya waitin' fo', Cajun?" Rogue smirks, tugging on his tie, while receiving a grin from her fiancé, who in turn scoops her up to take her back to the car to go home.
