A/N: It's been so long, I know. I have more time to update now, since third quarter is over, so I don't have to worry about any of my work now, well for awhile anyway.
Chapter Twenty-four
Remy sat next to Rogue, who was looking a little worried. Charles was still not there and that was never like Charles. Ben and Greg had run off with some other kids. Remy looked at the ground, then at the ceiling, then at Rogue.
"I t'ought t'at guy said he would be here," Remy said.
"He should be here," Rogue moaned.
Just then Ben and Greg ran back inside, screaming their heads off. They hid behind the chair Remy was sitting in.
"What did you do?" Remy asked, as the same girl that Rogue had said to leave alone walked in.
"Kathy," Rogue said, standing up." They didn't mean it, whatever they did."
"Move," Kathy snarled, pushing Rogue out of the way.
Remy quickly stood up and blocked her from getting any closer to Ben and Greg. Kathy looked at Remy for awhile. Muttering something that Ben, Greg, and Rogue didn't here and walked back outside. Rogue and Remy sat back down. Ben and Greg slowly came out from behing their seats and sat in the two extra chairs that were there.
"What did she say?" Ben asked, looking at Remy.
"Not'ing," Remy whispered.
"If she said anything bad," Rogue said," I'll go take care of her."
"No," Remy quickly said," She said, not'ing. Just muttereing to herself."
"Well Rogue," Someone said and the four looked up to see a man in a wheelchair." I see you've brought some friends back with you."
"Charles," Rogue said, standing up." This is Remy, Ben, and Greg."
"Yes," Charles said, shacking their hands." Come into my office."
The door of Charle's office opened without anyone toughing it. Ben and Greg looked at each other before they followed the others inside. Ben and Greg sat next to Remy, while Rogue stood next to Charles.
"It's very nice to meet you," Remy said, giving a small smile.
"It's nice to meet you too Remy," Charles said," I hope you don't mind that I've read your minds already."
"You what?" Remy asked, sounding very shocked.
"Don't worry," Charles said," I only read what you would let me. Some things in your mind are blocked or I just leave them alone."
"Okay," Ben said," So, are you going to ask us some questions or something?"
"Yes," Charles said," Now, I heard you were from Texas, but used to live in Orleans."
"Yes," Greg said," Very beautiful place."
"Yes, I know," Charles said, then turned to Remy." What did you use to do before this, Gambit?"
"I used to go to school," Remy said, looking at the ceiling.
"Very well," Charles said, sounding alittle not convinced." That's all I wanted. You may go."
Ben and Greg quickly jumped out of their seats and ran out the door. Remy stood up and Rogue walked over to him.
"Come on," Rogue said," I'll show you your room."
Remy followed Rogue out the door, where they passed Kathy, who entered Charles office. Remy watched as Kathy shut the door.
"What do you t'ink dey are talking about," Remy said, as they began to walk up the stairs.
"Probably wondering what we are doing so that Magneto can do something without us getting in the way," Rogue said.
Remy didn't say anything else as Rogue showed him a room.
"It's not much," Rogue said, opening the door.
Remy walked into the room to see that the room just had a bed, closet, a small dresser, and a small stand. The room was painted a sort of white color.
"Well," Rogue said," I told Kitty I would talk to her, so you can get used to the room."
Rogue walked out of the room and Remy didn't even try to stop her. She shut the door and walked down the hall, looking alittle sad. 'Why ain't he talking to me?' Rogue thought,' Did I do something wrong? I'll have to try to talk to him later.' Remy looked around the room and sighed. He put his bag, that he had been carrying for awhile, on the ground. He laid down on his new bed and just stared at the ceiling. After awhile he closed his eyes and went to sleep.
