Chapter 10

Lena and Gambit were back at his hotel room in New Orleans by the time it got dark again. Lena fell back onto his bed exhausted while he pulled up a chair and straddled it.

"Now can you explain?" Lena groaned and sat up to look at him

"You're not going to believe me so you just need to-"

"Trust you I know. You say it so much I can't help but trust you." Lena chuckled

"I'm from the future. I come from a time where destruction has happened but was stopped, where evil killed so much of good and where humans are starting to join in on the war as well."

"Chere what about you. Your story, that's what Remy wants to hear about"

"It's a long one"

"I have all of the time in the world."

Lena told Remy everything that had happened to her from her first training session right up to the day Time Warp had sent her back. About half way through her story Remy had gotten a roll of toilet paper and sat on the bed wiping her tears away. He held her in his arms and waited for her to calm down.

"I'll help you" Lena looked up from her place in his arms.

"Really?" she asked pulling back from him.

"Yeah all we have to do is get to her in New York right?" Lena nodded

"Well then I can help you get to her. No one can resist the charms of Remy LeBeau"

"Thank you." she put her head back to lie against his chest. Remy stroked her hair trying to convince her to give in and sleep for the night.

"Go to sleep chere. Remy'll protect you." Lena nodded and fell back on the bed. Remy stood up and lifted her body a bit to get the blankets form beneath. He placed her back on the bed and covered her up.

"Sleep well Lena" Remy said after kissing her forehead.

Lena rolled over to her side slowly coming out of a deep, peaceful sleep. She hugged the pillow tighter and took a deep breath in smelling the pillow. It smelt like smoke, and spice and something else she couldn't name. Wiping her eyes Lena sat up and looked around. She threw the blankets off and ran to the balcony looking for Gambit but didn't find him. Lena was about to go out and search for Gambit at the local bars until a voice stopped her

"Leaving so soon chere?"

Lena turned around to see Gambit walk to his dresser in only a towel. Lena tried not to stare at his naked upper body. He had toned arms to go along with his muscular chest and even more toned stomach. Water dripped off his body causing Lena to unconsciously lick her lips. Gambit's chuckle brought Lena out of her daze shaking her head she addressed him

"I was going to look for you."

"Awe don't you worry. Remy won't leave you" he said before taking his towel off, giving Lena a full view of his backside. Lena turned around embarrassed and shocked.

"Umm Are you still coming to New York with me?" Lena asked fighting the temptation to take another look.

"Of course chere. You can turn around now." Lena turned around to see him buttoning up a black shirt.

"If you want to change, Remy went and bought you some clothes while you were playing Sleeping Beauty." Lena was a floored by his consideration and generosity. He tossed her a large bag full of clothes

Lena took the bag of clothes over to the bed and turned her back to him.

'2 can play this game'

Lena slowly slid off her shirt, showing off her smooth skin. She undid her jeans and let them fall to the floor then stepped out of them. She pulled the clothes out of the bag and blushed when she saw new underwear for her. To help her make the decision whether or not to continue the game she listened in to his thoughts

"She won't go that far will she? Nah she's too good. Never. No I should look away. What if she turns around and sees ole Remy starin' I'd be turned into baby powder."

Lena smiled as she reached around her back to take her bra off

"Oh my. She's doing it. I can't believe she is doing it. Oh no think baseball. Mmmmmm Lena in lil uniform holding that bat. No old Mrs. Flurry. There I should be good."

Lena fastened the new bra on and was surprised to see that it fit her perfectly. Shaking her head she turned her head to see Remy twirl around

"Hope she didn't notice. I'd be hitting the wall if she did. I'm good I'm good"

Lena hooked her thumbs into her panties and slid them down stepped out of them and started to pull the new ones on.

"Chere's trying to kill me. My oh my she does look good. Oh no think Mrs. Flurry, Mrs. Flurry. Damn it"

Lena started to laugh as she pulled on her shirt and skirt that Gambit had bought. Lena looked down at the outfit and looked in the bag. Luckily she found a long sweater but nothing else in the bag. She turned to see Gambit licking his lips

"Where's the rest?" she asked holding up a sweater

"Rest of what?" he looked her up and down

"My outfit. There's hardly anything to this."

Gambit had bought her a tank top and short skirt. The tank top ran down to her hips and covered her chest but still showed a little cleavage. The skirt however was the problem, the skirt only went up to her mid thigh and with her running and fighting would be showing way too much to those around her. When she put the sweater on it covered her arms and the back of her legs down to the knee. Remy pointed to the side of the bed

"There are shoes" Lena glared and laughed outright when she found heeled, short boots that went high to the top of her ankle.

"Oh I'm getting jeans when I get money." She pulled on the shoes

"Well Chere you need to hurry. We have a flight to catch" Lena looked up from her battle with the boot

"What?" Remy leaned against the dresser

"Remy went out while you slept. I booked us a cheap vacation in New York City." Lena stood up after getting the shoes on her feet and glared at him

"Why do I feel like there's a catch? There's catch isn't there?" Remy smiled and nodded

"Amazing you know Remy already. There's one tiny thing" Lena threw her hands up in the air

"I knew it. What is it?"

Remy walked up to her, took her hand in his while holding her gaze. She felt a cool sensation slid up her finger. She looked down to se a gold wedding band. Remy held up his

"We're newlyweds" Lena searched for the words to describe what she was feeling at the moment. She put her hand to her mouth as her eyes moved frantically.

"Got it" she snapped her fingers and looked at Remy.

"Before I react the way I'm planning on reacting I'm going to ask you a few things that just might save your life. Who? Where? When? How? And WHY?"

"Well I talked to a friend in New York and apparently they are weeding out the mutants because of a threat. So any suspicious people are being held, searched and sent back from where they came from. We needed a good cover story. We are on our honeymoon. I booked everything." Lena nodded

"Congrats you're not going to die today." Gambit let a breathe out and followed her towards the door. He bumped into her back when she stopped

"What about passpor-" Gambit held up the fakes he had gotten that morning and led the way

"Ok you've thought of everything."
