Warning: I am attempting fluff, I ain't a fluffy writer, so be warned.

Disclaimer: I own none of the characters in here, I've tried to buy them with the few pennies I have (okay so I tried to buy Gambit), but they laughed at me and said not in this lifetime. So until then I own nothing.


It was the next night and Scott had taken Jean out into the city for dinner and now were currently walking up to the Eiffel Tower. "I never asked you this: have you ever been to the tower before?" Scott asked Jean as he kissed her lips.

She smiled as they broke apart. "No, this is my first time coming here. It's amazing. I remember stopping here on missions, but we've never actually stayed for site seeing." Jean commented as Scott payed the man at the door.

"Well, then we'll have to make sure this time is extra special." Scott said to her as they went into the elevator. Jean leaned her head against Scott's shoulder as he wrapped his arms around her to keep her close.

"It is already special, Scott." She told him as she lifted her head to look at him. "Just being here with you. I never realized how much I really cared for you, even before the incident at the lake. I never want to lose you." She said as tears formed in her eyes.

"And you're never going to lose me. How could I ever love anyone, but you?" He asked her with a smile. He raised his hand to her eyes to wipe away the tear the slid down her cheek.

"I was a bit jealous when that Emma woman was at the hotel. She was all over you and I thought for a moment you might have been interested in her." Jean whispered as the elevator doors opened and they reached the top.

"During the whole time she stayed at the hotel, I never once ever thought about her in that way. She could be the most beautiful, richest, and powerful woman in the world and I still wouldn't care. She wouldn't be you." He stated to her as he guided her out of the elevator. "I was always worried you would fall for Logan." He began to say.

Jean looked over at him. "You don't-" She started to say, but he turned to her and placed a finger over her lips.

"I had doubts you loved me when he was at the mansion. I remember seeing you in his room the first night he stayed. I seriously wanted to blast him through the wall." Scott told her. She gave a small smile. "Then he left and things were better for us, until he came back. I wanted to cancel the trip with the Professor, but he needed me there, so I couldn't." He stopped as soon as they reached the ledge that gazed out over the city of Paris. The lights from the building sparkling back at them and the stars above them, creating the perfect view.

Jean never took her eyes off of Scott as she waited for him to continue. "And then when I saw you leave the jet and rush outside to stop the waves from hitting us." He had to pause again. It hurt to think about the memories of what he went through when she was gone. "I never felt so scared in my life when the jet started taking off without you. As soon as I saw the waves cover you, I felt a piece of me die inside. Every day, until we found you, the only thing on my mind was of how I could have saved you. I felt I failed you." He finished as he bowed his head.

Jean hugged him close to her. "I was scared too, I thought I would never get a chance to see you again. The last thoughts that were on my mind were of you. After I woke up, I thanked God every day for giving me this chance to be with you again. As for me and Logan, he will always be a friend, just as you will always be the love of my life." She said to him as she raised her hand to caress his face.

"I know that now. As soon as you returned, I was so afraid I would hurt you again that I started to distance myself from you. Now I want to kick myself in the head every time I think about doing that." He told her as he turned to her with a grin on his face. "There's something I've been meaning to ask you."

She raised an eyebrow at him. "What is it?" She asked curiously.

"You know I love you more than life itself right?" Scott asked her.

Jean smiled at him. "Of course, you've told me that many of times." She responded.

"Well, there's something else I've been meaning to ask you." He told her as he released her and reached into his coat pocket. "I was going to ask you this yesterday, but was a bit distracted with what happened." He bent down on one knee and took her hand in his.

Jean's eyes widen. 'He can't be doing what I think he is.' She thought to herself as he pulled out a black velvet box with his other hand.

"Jean Grey, will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" Scott asked her as he opened the box. Jean felt her heart skip a beat as she gazed down at a beautiful gold ring with two silver diamonds and a bright yellow one in the center.

"Oh my god, how did you? You couldn't have." She was lost for words as she gazed down at the ring.

"I called the store and had it specially delivered to the hotel." He answered her.

"Yes, Scott." She nodded her head. She couldn't remember the last time she had smiled so much in one night. "I'll marry you." She finally answered.

Scott took the ring out of the box and placed it on her delicate finger. "I'm guessing you love the ring?" Scott asked as he got to his feet.

"The ring comes second to you. Nothing is more important than you" She told him as she kissed him, wrapping her arms around his neck.

When they finally broke apart, they stayed in each other's arms and looked over the city. "You think the others are having as much fun as us?" He asked her.

"I'm sure they are having a great time." Jean answered him as she rested her head against her future husband's chest.


Logan couldn't help but smile at the goddess sitting across from him. There was something about her that drew her to him, maybe it was the way she spoke, the way she did her hair, or the kindness she showed to others. 'All of them.' He decided to himself.

"Logan, we really didn't need to go to such a nice restaurant. I would have been happy with a simple café or meal from the hotel." Ororo told him as she smiled at him.

He chuckled to himself. He had asked the Cajun when they had gotten back to the hotel the night before: what was the most expensive restaurant in the city? He suggested a restaurant called Le Central. Logan had to hand it to the Cajun, he knew how to pick good one. The food and service was wonderful.

"I wanted ta take ya somewhere nice, darlin. Ya deserve the best there is." He told her and began to chuckle to himself again. "Still don' know how a woman as beautiful and intelligent as you would want to go out with a guy like me." He shook his head.

Ororo reached across the diner and placed her hand over his. "Don't you dare put yourself down. Out of every man I have met in my life, none of them even compare to being as caring and straight forward as you. I for one could not think of another person I'd rather be with at the moment." She said to him sincerely.

"Yeah, but are ya sure ya wanna be dating the 'bad guy' of the group?" He asked her. Ororo smiled at him slyly.

"Well, the bad guys are a bit more interesting than the good." She winked at him, surprising him. An orchestra in the background began to play music and the lights dimmed in the center of the restaurant.

"Care ta dance, darlin?" He asked her as he raised his hand to her. She gladly took it as he lead her to the dance floor.

"I never thought I would say this, but I am glad we ended up crashing." She whispered to him as she rested one hand on his shoulder while the other met his. Logan placed his other hand around her waist as they danced slowly to the music.

"Yeah, who knows what will happen on our next mission." He grinned at her.

"Hmm, maybe we'll have a mission to Italy next. I wouldn't mind that." Ororo said as she leaned against him. "Where did you learn to dance this well?" She asked.

"It's one of the things the girls wanted practice with. Drake and Rasputin chickened out so they suckered me inta it. Had ta spend four hours of watchin' tapes of ballroom dancin' and practicin' with Jubilee, Kitty, and Rogue. Glad ta see it came in handy." He answered her.

"I got to remember to thank them when we get home." Ororo said as she pulled back and looked into his blue eyes. He leaned down and rested his lips on her and pulled her into a kiss.

"I love ya, Ro." He whispered to her when they finally broke apart.

"I love you too, Logan." She whispered back as they continued dancing.


Remy walked Rogue back to the hotel. They had spent the whole day out seeing the sites of Paris. Rogue shivered as they walked down the side walk. "Y' alright, chere?" Remy asked looking down at her.

"Ah'm fine, just wish Ah had brought a heavier jacket than this with meh." She told him as she held her jacket close to her. Remy took off his duster and wrapped it around her.

"Dat better?" He asked her, his arm wrapped around her waist.

"But now ya'll get cold. Ah-" Rogue began to give him his coat back. She felt guilty and started to wish she never said anything.

"-it be alright, chere. A little cold never hurt dis Cajun." He gave her a charming grin. She couldn't help, but smile back at him when she looked into his eyes. 'Ah wonder if he is gonna come home with us. Ah'm sure the Professor wouldn't mind.' She thought to herself.

"Y' have a good time?" Remy asked her, breaking a sudden silence that fell between them.

"It was a day Ah'll remember forever." She answered, leaning her head against his chest. "Are ya gonna be comin' ta New York with us? We could always leave Bobby here and give ya his plane ticket" She asked him.

Remy chuckled at the thought of Bobby being left in Paris. "De kid wouldn't survive on his own, but I do like dat thought."

"So, is that a yes?" She asked him, looking up at him.

"Can', I be expected back home tomorrow in New Orleans. Mebbe y' could come with me?" He suggested to her.

Rogue hesitated before speaking. She had wanted him to say 'yes' more than anything. Now she would have to return to the mansion, with Bobby. Just by looking at him, it would remind her of what he did. "Ah can't, Ah got school back at home and these people are mah family. Ah can't abandon them." She answered.

Remy sighed in disappointment. "Mebbe I could come up and visit y' sometime, and y' de same with moi?" He asked her.

"Sorta like a long distance relationship?" She asked him.

"Oui, could be able to visit y' every month or so." He suggested.

"Ah don't know. Most long distance relationships don't work." She commented as they entered the hotel.

"So y' think dis is de end of it?" He asked her, praying she would say 'no.' 'Well, mebbe Remy could go dere. Non, pere would be ticked if I ditched. Dere gotta be a way for dis to work.' He thought to himself. They entered the elevator and watched as the doors closed.

"I don't want it to. Maybe we could give the long distance thing a try. Or maybe-" She was about to say another suggestion when Remy kissed her.

It still shocked her that she was able to touch again, as long as she wasn't angry, afraid, or depressed. It was because of the man in front of her that she learned this lesson that even the Professor wasn't able to figure out.

The elevator doors opened up and they continued to kiss as Remy held her close to him. He didn't want to lose her after only spending such a short time together. They finally broke apart when the doors began to close and Remy put his hand up to stop it. "After y', chere."

Rogue walked out, followed by Remy. "We can make it work. Ah know we can." She told him confidently as they walked to their rooms. Down the hall, they saw Bobby exit the women's room and turn to look down the hall at them.

"Hey, Rogue." Bobby gave a small smile at her, but she ignored him.

"Goodnight, Remy. Ah'll see ya tomorrow mornin'. Hopefully, after that we'll be able ta keep in touch." She kissed him on the cheek and entered the women's room.

Remy watched sadly as she closed the door behind her. "I knew you guys had nothing permanent." Bobby laughed as he turned his back away from the Cajun mutant.

"At least she be a lot happier with moi in one day dan with y' de entire time y' two went out." Remy shot back at Iceman, causing him to turn around.

"You know, I was going to say something mean, but it doesn't matter anymore. By tomorrow night you'll be out of the picture and Rogue will come back to me. I called Kitty and told her there was nothing and never would have been anything between us. When Rogue hears about it, she'll forgive me and forget all about you." Bobby taunted.

Remy growled as he grabbed a playing card from his jacket. He then kinetically charge it and before Bobby could get a chance to move, the card was near his throat. "If y' dare go near dat fille or try to hurt her, y' gonna pay." He vowed. His eyes were glowing an eerie dark red.

"Fine, I won't. Just put the card down." Bobby plead as the heat from the card lightly burns his neck. Remy drew the charge back.

"Gambit'll be watchin' y'." Remy glared down at the younger boy as he pushed past him and entered the men's bedroom.

Bobby rubbed his neck as he watched the Cajun leave the hallway. A small smile crept on his face. "Too bad you won't be to." He chuckled to himself. "Things will be back to how they were supposed to be in no time." He said to himself.
