Rogue sighed as she watched Remy's figure completely disappear from her range of vision. She turned on her heal and headed to her cabin to get some well needed rest and to organize her thoughts. She walked to her room and opened the large door to her room. The room was very large considering it was the captain's quarters. There were to large windows off to the other side of the room; her bed was fixed against the wall to the rights; a wooden desk with papers strewn out across it was at the opposite; a grand bookcase was positioned next to the desk and a wardrobe to the opposite side of the desk. The bed was four poster and extremely large; eloquent designs were carved into the posts of the bed; the comforter was thick, silky and a deep emerald green; the sheets were, a darker shade of green than the comforter, also silk but were thinner; there were two large pillows and one smaller covered in a black flannel material. The desk looked like any other, except for the fact that it was covered in many maps, a compass, papers, her captain's logs, and many other undistinguishable items. The bookcase was floor to ceiling and filled completely with books, most of the books being leather-bound. The wardrobe wasn't as tall as the bookcase but instead was wider; it had carvings in the oak wood that matched those of her bed posts.
Rogue slipped out of her clothes and into some pajamas before walking over to the small set of drawers to the side of her bed. She pulled out the top drawer which seemed to be full to almost bursting with letters. She pulled all of the letters out of the drawer and set them on her bed before taking a seat on the bed herself. All the letters seemed to be unopened but fairly new. It was very hard to get mail out at sea unless, of course, you were very rich but Rogue was definitely not rich so she had Logan and Ororo hold her mail until she came back for it. Rogue would come back every now and then to pick up her mail. She scanned through them and found them to mostly be from Remy.
Rogue smiled to herself and tried to figure out what was going on with them and their relationship. The two seemed to be on and off dating because they rarely saw each other but Remy said that he would write to her twice a week. Rogue told him that he was crazy and it would be months before she would ever see them. He had responded that he didn't care if it was six years later as long as she got them. She wasn't sure if she loved him or what it was but she knew that one day it would come up and one day she would have to figure it out. For now she just set it to the side and began to look through all the letters, reading each one.

Remy sighed heavily as he made his way up the gang plank to La Diable, the name of the ship perfectly fit Remy and his thieves past. Remy made his way through the men that were playing cards on the deck and headed straight towards his cabin. Remy turned the knob and stepped into the dark room and looked for a way to get some light into the room. He looked towards the windows and in the very little amount of light there was made out the fact that the curtains on his window were closed. He didn't remember closing them but shrugged it off to tired to worry about it. Remy reached down a pulled his shirt over his head before walking over to his bed and flopped down.
Remy expected to fall asleep almost instantly after hitting the pillow but instead found his mind drifting back to the thoughts of a certain Southerner. Rogue, Remy had to admit, confused the hell out of him. One minute she's yelling at him and the next she's asking if she'll see him again. Remy knew he loved her but wasn't quite sure if she loved him back and that worried him. He was afraid that if he went to her and told her that he loved her that she wouldn't reciprocate the feelings and leave him forever in his misery. He knew she liked him there wasn't any doubt in him about that but he wasn't sure if she loved him.
Remy was planning on surprising her with a nice dinner or something romantic one night just to see her reaction. He had been planning it for a long time but wasn't exactly sure about how to go upon it. He had asked John but that was no help. Wanda was the one that always came for ideas in that couple. Remy was thinking about asking Henry if they ever made it to his home island. Henry was Remy's old brother and Remy relied on him for a lot of things. One thing that he had never asked Henry about women usually it was the other way around. Remy could almost imagine the look on Henry's face when he asked him but he was determined and wasn't going to let that get in his way. Henry would most likely help Remy with a little incentive.
Shortly after Remy fell asleep unaware of the person who was thinking almost his exact thoughts.

Rogue woke to a loud pounding on her door. She pulled herself off the bed and to the door and opened it to find Wanda standing there.
"Wanda," Rogue growled out seeing her friend standing out in the hall.
"Sorry for waking you but you need to come out here," Wanda said and turned down the hallway with Rogue right behind her. When they reached the end of the hall Wanda opened the door permitting a bright stream of sunlight through. Rogue blinked a couple of times to allow her eyes to adjust to the bright light before taking a step onto the deck. Wanda lifted her arm slowly and pointed to where Siberian Wishes was previously docked and was now docked again. Rogue drew in a breath before ordering Wanda to find Kitty. Rogue walked down the gangplank and headed down to Remy's ship.
Rogue tried to clear her head of what had happened before. The previous night she was absolutely positive that the ship was not there but now that's where it was currently docked and the crew was bustling about on the deck.

Remy was standing at the front of the ship supervising as the men prepared to leave. Remy turned his head to the side and watched as Rogue stormed up the gangplank to his ship. Rogue walked straight up to Remy and said, "What happened?"
"Whadda talkin' 'bout, chere," Remy purred out taking a step towards her a pulling her to him.
"Piotr's ship is back an' Ah wanna know how," she said.
"Remy doesn't know, mais Remy is happy," Remy whispered in her ear causing a slight shiver to run through her. Rogue looked up into his eyes absolutely losing herself in those ruby on onyx eyes. Remy looked into her emerald orbs before slowly leaning down and catching her lips in a chaste kiss.
"Rem' that didn't answer mah question," Rogue said after the two pulled away for the necessity for air.
"Remy knows cherie, mais it was fun," Remy purred his smirk taking up his whole face.
"Well, Ah asked Wanda to find Kit an' see if she knew what was up. So Ah better be headin' back," Rogue said. She leaned forward and gave Remy a peck on the cheek before walking down the gangplank. After a few seconds Remy decided to follow her.
The two made their way up the gangplank of the Emerald Marie. Wanda and Kitty were standing on the helm deep in conversation. Rogue led Remy to where the two women seemed to be fighting or engaged in a very heated conversation.
"Achem," Rogue let out announcing her presence. The two women immediately stopped and turned to look at their captain and the man accompanying her.
"Oh, hi captain," Kitty said after a few minutes of silence. Wanda just nodded to her captain.
"Kit do ya know anythin' 'bout that?" Rogue asked pointing over where Siberian Wishes was now docked again. Kitty looked over at the ship and back to her captain before shaking her head.
"Dat's strange den. Bella usually never backs down," Remy said after watching Kitty shake her head 'No' towards her captain.
"Wanda, Ah need ya to head back to Remy's ship an' get John. Remy an' Kit come with me," Rogue said. Wanda nodded before heading in the direction of La Diable while Rogue, Remy, and Kitty head towards Siberian Wishes.

Wanda walked towards Remy's ship to find John just as Rogue had told her to. She was about to head up the gangplank when she saw John standing at the helm yelling orders out to the men, shirtless. Wanda thought life was perfect as she stood there and stared at John who had yet to notice her presence. When Wanda broke out of her trance she noticed the John was waving at her smiling. Wanda waved backed and headed up the gangplank. Wanda walked across the deck and over to where John was. John took a step closer to her and put his arms around her.
"Mornin' luv," he said before placing a quick kiss on her lips.
"Mornin' John, so whatcha doin'?" Wanda asked. John just shrugged and looked down at her.
"So whadda you doin' here?" he asked after a minute or two.
"Rogue sent me to get you," Wanda said. John nodded but leaned down and caught Wanda's lips in a passionate kiss.
"Ok let's go," John said when they broke apart. Wanda just nodded and the two made their way to where Rogue and everyone else were located unable to wipe the smiles off their faces.
