Disclaimer: I Don't own X-men but if i did we would see a big change. (Insert Evil laugh here.) So until Wolvierine and Gambit put on pink neon trousers with matching pink tops an dance to Justin Timberlake (Um..........) Make mine marvel!!!
Everytime
"So did you hear what happened?"
"Only a little bit."
"So did she leave him?"
"Oh yeah. She left him."
"I cant believe She'd do that! Wasn't he innocent!"
"Uh huh. An Rogue aint exactly sqeaky clean either though. What right did she have. All the other X-men are blaming it on her powers and how it was actually his fault he was left behind."
"Thats bull crap. She could have fought against it."
The two students of Xavier's School for gifted Youngsters stood in the elevator, unaware that I was behind them.
Take my handThe doors opened and the two girls walked out nearly colliding with the School's Danger Room teacher Logan. He saw me standing in the elevator and joined me. "Hiya stripe's." He said.
"hi." I said softly.
"Coming for a danger room session?" he asked, "It'll me make you feel better."
"Ah suppose." I said shrugging my shoulders.
Walk with me
Strangest Land.
As the elevator dropped to the desired floor Logan said, "How ya holdin' up?"
"Ah'v been better." I said leaning my head against the wall of silver metal, "Ah cant stop thinkin' bout him Logan." I felt a comforting arm go round my shoulders and I stared into Logan's dark eyes. "Ah still love him Logan."
Our love was strong
Why cant it open me?
The doors opened at the floor that housed the famed danger room and we both stepped out. "Don't worry stripes. Everything's gonna be okay."
We walked into the Danger room to be met by Kurt, Scott and Jean. Each of them looking at me with pity. I saw the way Kurt shifted on his feet uncomfortably, the way Scott crossed his arms and the way Jean walked towards me her arms reaching out to hug me. "Are you sure you want to do this Rogue? I mean your still recovering from Antarctica." I pushed her away, I didn't want her help. "Ah'm fahne." I said angrily, "Now lets get on with this." The danger room session started. There were senitals coming at me from all sides. I felt small, weak, cold. Cold? It was boiling in the danger room. It always was. Why did I feel cold? I began to shiver uncontrollably. The senitals were getting closer. I gathered my strength together and flew up in the air. But as soon as I was up there, I froze. My eye's closed and I saw a blizzard move towards me. Getting closer and closer. I began to fall, the snow swirling around me, suffocating me. I heard a voice, "ROGUE!". It was Logan. But he was too late. I hit the danger room floor and felt a searing pain run down my back.
Everytime I try to fly I fall
Without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
I opened my eyes and I saw him. Staring down at me with those eyes. His hair flopping down at the sides of his head. He smiled and said, "What have a told ya chere. Never fly before you can run."
And every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face
It's haunting me
I guess I need you baby
And then I closed my eyes and everything went dark.
When I woke up I found myself in the hospital bay, with Logan looking down on me. "Ya'll right Stripe's? Ya gave us quite a fright."
It took me a while to hear what he was saying but then I remembered, "Where is he?" I asked sitting up.
"Who?" Asked Logan looking confused.
"Gambit! He was here I saw him. Where is He?" I screamed.
Logan looked at me and took my hand. "Rogue. Gambit's not here. It was probably just a hallucination. Rogue?"
I was looking over his shoulder. There he was. Standing in the corner of the Hospital bay. Grinning like he always was. He walked towards the bed, his trench coat flying out behind him. He came up to the side of the bed and bent over and kissed me on the head. "Bye Chere."
Slowly the tears welled up in my eyes. "No gambit. Don't go. Not yet. Please." "Rogue. Who are you talking to?" Asked Logan, "There's no one else here." "I'm sorry Chere. Dis be ma que t' leave. Au revoir."
"NO! REMY! COME BACK PLEASE! I NEED YOU!" I shouted the tears freely running down the side of my cheek.
I make believe
That you are here
It's the only way
I see clear
"Rogue Please, clam down." said Logan putting his hands on my shoulders.
"I'm Sorry Remy. I'm sorry. Please, come back. COME BACK!" I screamed as I watched him walk out the door. "I'm Sorry!"
What have I done
You seem to move uneasy
I Shrugged off Logan's hands and tried to fly out of the bed but I fell to the floor. "Rogue. Please. Stop. Your not ready to get up yet."
"He was here Logan. Why didn't you see him?! He was here! Bring him back! Bring him back!" I screamed crying harder than ever before and beating Logan's chest with my fists.
"Rogue. Gambit is dead." I looked up into Logan's eyes and shook my head, "I'm sorry. But he is. There is no way he could have survived. He's gone Rogue. Forever."
And Every time I try to fly I fall
Without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face
it's haunting me
I guess I need you baby
I spent the next two weeks in my room, in the dark, alone. I wouldn't let anyone in. There would be times when I let Kitty in, I would cry and she would tell me it would be okay. But she was away on a mission with storm to Korea. I was alone. It didn't matter where I went I would always see him. I saw him in every face, every stranger that came to the mansion looked like him. Logan was right. He was dead.
I looked out the window and saw the rain hit off the glass. The tears began to fall down my face again. I lay back in my bed and felt someone wrap their arms around me and whisper in my ear softly, "Don't cry chere. Don't cry."
I've made (I've made)
It rain
Please Forgive me.
My weakness caused you pain
And this song's my sorry
I thought of all the times that we had been together. The good and the bad. There had been a few bad times, but even then we had been together. No matter how much I pushed him away he kept coming back. And no matter how many times he disappeared he came back. But not this time. This time he had disappeared for good. "oh god please," I whispered to the room, "Help me forget. I don't want to love him. Help me forget."
At night I pray
That soon your face will fade away
The door opened and Logan walked in. I sat up quickly and wiped away the tears running down my face. "Hiya stripe's." he said sitting down beside me. "I got some good news for you."
'Good news?' I thought, 'There's no good news. Not now'
"Kitty and Storm are back. Want to come down and see them?" he asked. The way he said it, it was if he was urging me to come down and see them. As though there was a hidden meaning to his words.
"Not jus' now Logan." I said lying back on the bed.
"Please Rogue." he said pulling on her hands.
I looked into his eyes and saw them full of excitement. I looked back out the window. "Go down and see dem chere. I'll wait for you." Whispered the voice that she always heard.
I turned back round to face Logan an smiled weakly. "Looks like I have no choice."
When I stood up, my legs felt weak but I forced my self to walk. Suddenly I was overcome by memories. Memories of me and Gambit.
An Every time I try to fly I fall
Without my wings
I remembered the love we had shared together. The embraces we had stolen. I started to walk with Logan, but my legs felt as though they were about to give way. The tears started rolling down my cheeks again.
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
I felt Logan put his arm around my shoulders and whisper, "It's going to be okay Rogue. Don't worry."
I couldn't stop them now. The waves of tears kept cascading down the side of my face. There was no stopping them. Just like there was no way I could stop loving Remy. Never. He may be gone from me, but I could never stop loving him.
An every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face
Its haunting me
We were close to the front door now. The first person I saw was Storm. Her white hair falling neatly down her back. Then I saw kitty. She turned and smiled at me. And then I saw him. He looked straight at me. The man that had been haunting my dreams for months. He walked towards me, holding his arms out, reaching towards me. He held me in his arms as I cried into his chest and held him tight. He brought his mouth to my ear and whispered one word, "Chere."
I guess I need you baby.
