Attention! I am going on vacation to Nigeria for a month. That means a month of minimal to no updates. I know, you're devastated. I am too, believe me. Hopefully by the time I get back I'll have a lot of chapters already written. Hopefully I'll be able to update at one of the internet café's there. Just a head's up for why there are going to be no updates.
Review Responses!
Crash Slayer- I'm glad you liked how I added the fight. I wanted to make sure that the characters were real. Well, as real as they can be. Yeah, there's going to be a little more focus on Kiotr next chapter. Personally, Romy's one of my major favs and easiest to write for me, so I guess that's why I write a lot of it. You're right, Rogue shouldn't have the power...hmmm. I'll have to think about this and explain myself next chapter.
Lorelai- I couldn't bear to keep them apart. And as another reviewer said, they live in the same house. And they share the same room, well, they do when Wanda isn't sleeping on the couch. But still, it'd be pretty awkward if they didn't go out.
Sunspotmisery- of course Remy's a big distraction. In clothing and out of clothing.
Fauna Greywolf- Yeah, I couldn't keep them apart. They belong together.
Sickmindedsucker- Ugh, pride. It sucks sometimes. Well, in this chapter they sleep a lot longer. I mean, I couldn't keep them trapped in the mini living room for days. Relationships are so awesome, except for the fights. But I couldn't write a story with a relationship and not have at least one fight, because then it wouldn't be realistic. Hope this chapter's a little funnier than the last.
Bored247- Thanks. These chapters took me awhile. I really don't like make up scenes. Half of me rolls my eyes and goes "yeah right" and the other half goes, "aww!" so it's weird.
Rogue238- Thanks about the makeup scene. I tried so hard not to make it to unrealistic. I didn't want to leave you all hanging because I thought I'd lose readers, so I didn't want that to happen. It looks like it might have though.
Numbuh 333 half way 2 hell- Make up scenes are overrated. If anyone said I love you on the first date I'd just go thanks and probably leave. I mean, that's not the way the world works you know?
FluidDegree- (16) Your welcome for your idea. It was a good one. (17) I'm glad you liked the pink underwear. I was thinking, what would be the best distraction?… and then all of a sudden a great (and weird) idea popped into my mind. (18) thanks. I didn't think that Wanda and John would have this whole mushy I love you, I missed you make up, so I didn't want to write it that way. I'm glad I wrote it properly.
Cat2fat900- I'm sorry for making them break up! Do I get some credit for putting them back together? Yeah, I loved writing Remy's distraction. Here's an update for you!
Last Time:
"Let's go let them out," said Rogue to Remy, Piotr and Kitty. The four of them went downstairs. Rogue took out the barrier she put around there, and Remy unlocked the door.
"Finally!" said John. He and Wanda walked out hand in hand, but didn't stop where the rest of them were.
"See you guys in a couple of hours," said Wanda as they went upstairs into their room and fell asleep in each other's arms.
Chapter 19- Remy's PMS
The next morning Remy and Rogue were already in the kitchen when Piotr and Kitty came in, still in their nightclothes.
"Mornin'," said Rogue. Remy was leaning against the wall, one arm around Rogue. They were both dressed and drinking coffees.
"Hey," said Kitty. She got her breakfast and sat down.
"John and Wanda still sleeping?" asked Piotr as he tried to take food from Kitty's plate. She smacked his hand away and phased when he tried again.
"Remy don' t'ink dey're sleepin'," said Remy. Rogue elbowed him, nearly causing him to spill his coffee.
"Ah believe they're sleepin'," said Rogue. "Ah mean, they haven't slept foah a week."
"Y' keep t'inkin' dat chere," said Remy. "Remy knows what's goin' on. John and Wanda haven't been laid in a week. Dey must be makin' up for lost time."
"Ten dollahs," said Rogue.
"Y're on," said Remy. He nodded at Piotr. "What do y' t'ink Piotr?"
Piotr looked from Rogue to Remy and thought for a moment.
"Knowing John, all that lack of sleep must have converted something into energy. Energy that he's dying to spend right about now," said Piotr. "I'm with Remy."
"Knowing Wanda she's not like, going to give him any. She's tired," said Kitty. "Us girls will stick together."
"So when we win, we'll get twenty dollahs each," said Rogue.
"Why twenty?" asked Piotr.
"Ten from you," said Kitty. "And ten from Remy."
"Tell y' what," said Remy. "If y' win, we'll give y' our credit cards, drop y' off at de biggest mall around and leave y' dere all day."
Rogue smirked. "I'm game," she said.
Kitty looked at Piotr and smiled. "Me too," she said.
"Don't y' want t' know what happens if y' lose?" said Remy.
"We're not gonna," said Rogue.
"Don't be so cocky," said Piotr.
"What'll happen if by like, some miracle we lose?" asked Kitty.
Remy smiled at the both of them. "Y're our slaves for de rest of de vacation. Up until we drop y' off at de institute," he said.
Rogue laughed. "Ah shouldha known," she said. "We're still goin' ta win."
"Don't bet on it," said Remy.
"Too late," said Kitty as she and Piotr walked over and they all shook hands. They separated Remy and Piotr on the left, Rogue and Kitty on the right.
"So Kitty what are we goin' ta buy?" asked Rogue.
"I don't know," said Kitty. They smiled at the guys.
"So Remy what are we going to make the girls do?" asked Piotr.
"Remy has a few ideas," said Remy as he grinned at the girls and rubbed his hands together.
Rogue smacked the back of his head. "Pervert," she said.
The doorbell rang.
"Remy'll get it," said Remy. "If anyt'ing t' keep from bein' hurt again. Dat 'urt chere."
"Go get the door," said Rogue.
Remy went to get the door while Piotr, Kitty and Rogue sat down at the table. They heard voices and all of a sudden they heard Remy go,
"NOOOOO!" he screamed in anguish.
Kitty, Piotr and Rogue went up to the door. A man with a clipboard was standing there, looking at Remy strangely.
"Does that mean Mrs. Kitty Rasputin, Mrs. Rogue Lebeau, and Mrs. Wanda Allerdyce don't live here?" asked the deliveryman.
"No, no no," protested Kitty and Rogue.
"We're right here," said Rogue. She and Kitty walked around Remy who looked like he was about to cry.
"Wanda's sleeping," said Kitty. "I'll sign for her."
The deliveryman nodded. "Where do you want us to put everything?" he asked.
"Driveway," said Rogue.
"Our husbands will get to it," said Kitty.
"Once they finish crying," said Rogue dryly as she looked at Remy who was sitting on the ground. Piotr was patting his back, trying to console him. Kitty laughed.
The deliveryman looked at all of them strangely.
"Ookay," he said and walked back to the truck to unload all of their packages.
(-strawberrie-)
"Let's get them all inside," said Rogue. "We'll help."
"Y' better help!" exclaimed Remy. They were all standing in the driveway, looking at all the packages.
"In fact, Remy's not touching a single t'ing! Y' have t' take dem all inside!" continued Remy.
"Remy, Ah love ya," said Rogue.
"Dat's nice chere. Je t'aime aussi," said Remy. "Mais, dere is no way y're goin' t' make Remy move a single t'in'! Remy's goin' t' sit here and watch y' do it all." He sat down Indian style on the driveway and crossed his arms.
Rogue, Kitty and Piotr fought laughs. They were close to bursting though.
"Ah think he's PMSin'," said Rogue.
"Remy is not!" said Remy, glaring at Rogue. Rogue and Kitty giggled.
"Come on Rems," said Rogue. She went and helped Remy up. She put one arm around his waist and started leading him back into the house.
"You need some Ibuprofen," said Kitty. She went and helped Rogue.
"And a relaxin' bath," said Rogue.
"And you'll feel better," finished Kitty.
"Dat sounds nice," said Remy a bit sleepily.
Kitty helped them into the house and then let Rogue take over. She went back outside to where Piotr was. Kitty looked at Piotr. Piotr looked at Kitty.
"That was interesting," said Piotr. They looked away.
"Yupp," said Kitty. They continued to try and hold their laughs.
"A grown man acting lahke a fahve year old…" Rogue projected to the both of them.
Kitty and Piotr looked at each other again and burst out laughing.
Rogue walked outside just as they did this.
"Must be the pink underwear," said Piotr. "It got Remy in touch with his feminine side."
Kitty and Rogue looked at him strangely. Simultaneously, they started to back up slowly.
Piotr rolled his eyes. "Didn't you guys see the news?" he asked them.
"No," said Kitty and Rogue.
Piotr sighed.
"Come on," he said. He lead them back into the house, and down to his and Kitty's room. He turned on his notebook computer and got online. Then he logged onto Trident News. He clicked a link and a story came up.
"Man Playing with Fire and a Man with Bright Pink Underwear. Connection?" read Kitty out loud.
"There's a video," said Piotr. "Someone taped it." He clicked another link and a video movie appeared on the screen.
They saw John sitting by the edge of the forest.
"That's John," said Rogue.
All of a sudden the picture blurred, as if it was being moved quickly. The next clear image was of Remy, running through the police in only a bright pink woman's underwear, and screaming.
"No way," said Kitty. "There's no way that's him!…Is it?"
Piotr looked at her, grinning. Rogue continued to stare at the screen.
"I mean, he's like, blonde! And has blue eyes!…Rogue?" said Kitty.
Rogue looked at her, a huge grin on her face.
"That's definitely him," said Rogue. "I'd recognize that body anywhere."
"Of course you would," said Kitty. Rogue smacked her arm lightly.
"And I can see the scar he has…from…something," said Rogue.
"What scar? From where?" said Kitty. She looked at the picture again, that Piotr had restarted.
Rogue shook her head. "Not allowed to tell. Only Remy and I know it's there," she said. "That way I know it's him and not someone else."
Kitty looked at Piotr. "Did you save this?" she asked him.
"Did I save this?" said Piotr. He opened up a folder on his computer labeled "Distractions." There were a lot of video files with the person's name that did the distraction, the date and the time.
"There are over two hundred files here!" said Rogue.
"Why is like, John's name listed the most?" asked Kitty.
"He lost the rock, paper, scissors game," said Piotr.
"Can ah have a copy of Remy's distractions?" asked Rogue.
"Sure," said Piotr. He reached into his desk drawer and came up with a CD. It had "Distractions Remy" written on it. He handed it to Rogue who held on to it.
"Ya don't need it?" asked Rogue.
"I have extra copies," said Piotr. "They've been trying to find all the files for a very long time."
"You are so evil," said Kitty to the both of them.
"Ah know," said Rogue at the same time Piotr said, "I know." They smiled at each other.
"Come on," said Rogue. "We have ta get our stuff insahde."
(-no more strawberries-)
Remy PMSing. Hehehe. I really think I'm weird, to come up with these things. Wait, I know I'm weird. Oh well.
Next chapter, Wanda and John wake up, and the winner of the bet's revealed. But you can guess who's going to win.
BTW. I have NO IDEA what I'm going to do for the Jonda surprise. Can anyone help me out? It's going to have something to do with fire, but I'm not sure what for now.
