Last Time:
Thirty minutes later the whole mansion was up in flames.
"What did ya do?" asked Rogue as she dubiously stared up at the huge fire.
"Whatever wasn't flammable in the house, Piotr either crushed, or Remy blew up," said John. "I burned everything else."
"What'd y' do t' de guys?" Remy asked the girls.
They grinned. "We dressed them drag and left them tied to a street pole in the middle of the sidewalk," said Kitty.
"Are you serious?" said Piotr. Remy and John burst out laughing.
Wanda grinned. "Dead serious," she said.
"Alright kiddies," said John as he handed the shivering Wanda his jacket. "Let's go home. Meet you guys there."
"Alright," said Kitty. "See you guys."
"If not, we'll see ya tomorrow mornin'," said Rogue. "Ah'm tired."
"Okay, bye," said Piotr. They all went to their respective cars, drove home and went to sleep.
Chapter 35- Home Makeover
The next morning at breakfast they made plans for the day.
"Okay," said Rogue. "We'll each have our own rooms and bathrooms. Kitty and Piotr, you guys got the mini living room-"
"And the table hockey table in the game room," said Wanda.
"Both of them," said Kitty.
Rogue blinked. "Okay," she said. "Remy and ah got the main living room. Wanda and John, ya got the laundry room, tha bathrooms that aren't connected to any of our rooms, the kitchen and the dining room."
"Okay?" she asked. When everyone nodded she did too. "Okay, let's go. Make sure to get same day delivery if possible. If not, next day delivery."
They all put their plates in the dishwasher, went upstairs to change and left in their respective cars.
(-strawberrie-)
The John and Wanda and Remy and Rogue went to two different Ikea Stores while Piotr and Kitty went to the room store, and then to Sports Authority.
When John and Wanda got to Ikea they split up, in search of items for their room, bathroom, and the other bathrooms.
An hour later they met each other in the front of the store.
"What did you get?" asked Wanda.
"Let me show you," said John. He grabbed Wanda's hand and led her to a massive king sized bed with fire running along the seams.
"It'll be perfect for out room," he said as he put his arms around her waist and put his chin on her shoulder.
"Want to try it out?" asked Wanda.
"Here?" asked John.
"Where else?" she asked. John grinned and when no one was looking they slid under the covers.
(-strawberrie-)
"What the…?" thought the store manager. He was hearing loud moans. He turned, and saw a large, moving lump under one of the beds. He stepped closer and realized the moans were coming from two people under the sheets.
"Oh no," said the manager. "Not again! I'm not looking under that!"
He quickly ran to his office to get rid of the images that appeared of the last time he looked under the covers at two people having sex.
(-strawberrie-)
"Perfect," said Rogue as she and Remy looked at a bed in another Ikea.
"Wouldn't it be better if it were green an' black?" asked Remy. They were looking at a king-sized bed with black velvet coverings. The comforter was black velvet on one side and red velvet on the other. The pillows were the same way.
"Nah," said Rogue. "Ah lahke this. We can make the main living room green and black."
Remy nodded. "Want t' try it out, chere?" he asked Rogue.
"Remy!" Rogue exclaimed. "ah hope yahre not suggesting weh have sex in a store!"
"Non," said Remy. "Freaky tings like dat are for John n' Wanda." He went over to the bed and laid on it. He then motioned for her to join him.
She hesitantly did and as soon as she got on the bed Remy pulled her into his arms and kissed her deeply.
"Oh, that's what you meant," said Rogue as she pulled Remy's head down for another round of kisses.
(-strawberrie-)
"How about that one?" asked Kitty. She pointed to a dark brown room set, with black strips here and there. It looked like a dark tiger.
"I don't think so," said Piotr. "It doesn't look all that nice."
"That one?" asked Kitty. She pointed over toward a maroon set.
"It doesn't seem to match the two of us," said Piotr.
Kitty looked again. "You're right," she said. "It seems more like the Professor's type."
"How about that one?" asked Piotr as he motioned over towards a blue room. The comforter was dark blue, with light blue pillows. The rest of the room was in different shades of blue, making it both feminine and masculine.
"Ooh!" exclaimed Kitty. "It's pretty. We could also add metallic things to it."
"Like?" asked Piotr.
"Like, we could have a metal lamp, a metal desk, metal accessories, etc," said Kitty.
"Yeah," said Piotr. He looked and saw a saleswoman. "Excuse me miss, we'd like to purchase this set."
"Aw, are you two shopping for your first home?" asked the saleswoman.
Kitty smiled up at Piotr. "Not yet," she said. "We're actually shopping for furniture for the house we share with two other couples."
"Aw, that's nice," said the sales lady. "Would you be interested in a living room set with the same color scheme?"
Piotr and Kitty looked at each other. "Sure," said Piotr.
(-strawberrie-)
That night, after they'd redone the house and given all the furniture to Purple Heart, they went down to the beach and had a bonfire. The three couples sat around the fire on blankets like John and Wanda did for John's surprise.
"I'm going to miss this place so much," said Kitty.
"Yeah," said Wanda. "Our best memories have been here."
"Like de surprises," said Remy.
"That we absolutely loved," said Piotr, as the guys hugged their girls.
"Dancing at the Celestial," said Kitty. Remy grinned, remembering.
"Beating the crap out of David, Travis and Chris," said John.
"Arguments," said Rogue, glaring at John and Wanda.
"Make ups," said Wanda, smiling at Rogue.
"PMS," said Piotr, grinning at Remy.
"Fun on de beach," said Remy.
"And the mutant fair," said Kitty. "I feel like I'm going to cry."
The four other couples smiled at her sadly while Piotr hugged her.
"It's been so much fun just being together you know?" said Wanda.
"Yeah," said John. "We should get our own house together."
"Who's payin' for it?" asked Remy. They all looked at him. "Non, not Remy."
"You have the deepest pockets!" protested Wanda.
"Whatevah, we'll come ta that when tha tahme comes," said Rogue. "Let's just savor our last night here."
They sat there, staring at the stars or the fire, just reminiscing, not wanting to think about when they leave tomorrow.
John nudged Wanda and she looked at him curiously. Putting a finger to his lips he motioned to the fire. Wanda looked at it and in it was a little image. John made it so that it was only on their side and the others couldn't see it.
The image started to play like a video. It was the six of them, sitting as they were just then. All of a sudden Remy and Rogue get up and leave, then Piotr and Kitty left and then all of a sudden, Wanda and John look at each other and next thing you know clothes are flying everywhere. Then a question mark appeared.
Wanda grinned and nodded yes.
A couple minutes later Remy and Rogue got up.
"We're headin' insahde guys," said Rogue. The rest of them nodded and they left. A couple minutes later Piotr carried a sleeping Kitty into the house.
As soon as Piotr and Kitty entered the house, Wanda pounced on John.
"They took forever to leave!" she exclaimed.
(-no more strawberries-)
Yeah, John and Wanda's thing was wierd...and disturbing.. but I'm in a wierd disturbing mood. (Don't ask. You really don't want to know)
