Aprilangel413: Ok they're out of New Orleans now. I'll explain why they didn't stay in a minute.
Disclaimer: I don't own X-Men Evolution, but Lilly is all mine.
Lilly napped in a seat in the back while Remy annoyed Rogue in the front. They had left New Orleans after the military arrived and Logan exchanged a few choice words with a general. After that Logan ordered everyone onto the jet and said they were going home. Lilly heard the sound of heavy footsteps and opened one of her eyes. It was Logan. He looked angry, and the fact that he let Scott take over driving the jet was proof.
"Hi." Lilly said weakly.
"What the hell did you think you were doing?" Logan asked.
"Remy already yelled at me, do you have to too?" Lilly closed her eyes and turned so she wasn't facing him.
"Yes. That was one stupid stunt you pulled and it's not going to be tolerated on this team." Logan said.
"Don be ta hard on 'er. She's been pulling stuff like dat all 'er life." Big Daddy butted in.
"Tank you." Lilly said the rolled over again.
"In fact dat's how we chose 'er over all da othah kids dat we could 'ave adopted." Big Daddy said thoughtfully.
"Big Daddy. Please don't tell the story, not now." Lilly whined.
"It's a good story, I don know why ya hate it so much." Big Daddy smiled.
"Go ahead." Lilly said giving up.
"Remy gotta hear dis." Remy said leaving Rogue and walking back towards Big Daddy.
"It wasn't dat long ago when me an Me-ma decided ta adopt a child. We had been try'en ta have our own foh years but no kids so far. Anyway we wen' ta a lot O adoption agencies but noneO de children evah caught our eyes. Den dis one woman told us ta check out dis foster home. So in a last hope we wen' down toda foster home. De couple der must O had at least fifteen kids at der house. While talk'en ta da couple my wife was looking out de window inta da backyard where all de kids were. Most O dem were play'en a game O kickball but a few weren't. Some lil' girls were play'en wit dolls in da shade of a tree while Lilly sat on the opposite side read'en. Den two boys snuck up on de lil' girls a shot dem wit water guns. Dey screamed an ran an da boys chased after dem. De girls ran ta where Lilly was an hid behind 'er. Den she took da water guns and gave dose boys a piece O der own medicine. Me-ma insisted on meet'en 'er even though da couple said dat she had a fewproblems. She moved in wit us da very next day." Big Daddy finished looking very proud of Lilly.
After he finished his story everyone went back to their seats and talked amongst themselves. Rogue hadn't moved from her seat but was listening. After Logan passed by grumbling about stupid soldiers and the stupid government Rogue got up and walked to the back. She sat down next to Lilly who looked completely exhausted.
"Ya ok?" Rogue asked.
"I have'n slept in ovah 24 hours, I'm jus a lil' tired." Lilly said a little annoyed.
"Cranky too." X-23 added from her seat one row in front of Lilly's.
"Hm." Lilly said turning around so she wouldn't have to look at anybody.
Rogue sighed and turned to look straight ahead.
"Hallo chere." Remy smirked.
Apparently he a taken the seat next to her while she was talking to Lilly.
"Hi Gambit." Rogue said not turning to meet his eyes.
"Aw chere, why you be'en so cold. Ya words hurt Remy so." Remy said putting his hand over his heart.
Rogue turned to look at him but immediately regretted it. He was still wet from swimming in the water before the jet picked them up. He looked even cuter then normal, if that's possible.
"Is it true?" Rogue asked as she tried to turn away.
"Is wha' true?" Remy asked.
"What Lilly told meh." Rogue said turning back to him.
"Depends. Wha' di' she tell you?" Remy asked smirking at Rogue's sudden change in behavior.
"She said dat ya call meh chere cause that's what ya real fathah called ya mothah. And that ya nevah called anyone else chere before." Rogue said.
Remy paused.
"It be true. I can no' lie." Remy said, now it was his turn to look away.
"Why meh." Rogue asked getting up and walking around to his other side.
"I don know. At first you was jus anothah belle dat I charmed ta getmy job done. But den I saw something in ya dat I still don know what it is. But I know that it makes you, you. An I jus find dat I wan ta be around ya." Remy said still trying to look away.
"Hold on." Logan yelled from the front as he turned the jet sharply.
Rogue lost her balance and fell onto Remy's lap. Remy wrapped his arms around her waist and held her close to him. Remy put his forehead to hers, glad that he had the cloth there.
"Chere, Rogue. I tink I love you." Remy said in a whisper.
Rogue looked shocked. She turned her eyes away from him, staring at the floor.
"Remy, Ah, Ah." Rogue paused.
Remy put his hand under her chin and turned her head so she was looking at him.
"You don have ta say anyting Rogue, jus don run away." Remy said pulling her closer to him.
And she let him hold heart least until they landed to drop off Big Daddy. Rogue got up so Remy and Lilly could go walk the old man to the house and say their good byes. As soon as Remy was out of her sight Rogue ran to where Kitty was sitting and pulled her away from Kurt to another side of the jet.
"Rogue what are you like doing?" Kitty asked.
"Remy just said that he loves meh." Rogue said quickly.
Kitty's eyes widened to the size of pool balls as her jaw dropped.
"What did you say." Kittyasked eagerly.
"Nothing, he just told meh not to run away." Rogue answered.
"Well do you…love him?" Kitty some how was able to put on a very serious looking face to ask this.
"Ah don't know, can Ah?" Rogue looked to Kitty as if she had all the answers.
"Do you at least like him?" Was Kitty's only answer.
Rogue paused. He had kidnapped her and he never stopped annoying her. But he could be kind and understanding at times.
"Ah guess he could be considered a friend."
"That's a start." Kitty smiled.
"Yeah." Rogue said thoughtfully.
"Why don't you like hangout with him and like find out what you think of him?" Kitty offered.
Rogue paused again. Did she really want to spend more time with Remy? But before Rogue could respond Lilly came onto the jet with Remy right behind her. Kitty went back to sit with Kurt and Rogue followed. Seeing this Remy sat down next to Lilly who had just sat down next to X-23.
"Wha' did you do?" Lilly asked glaring at Remy with her demonic like eyes.
"Remy jus…" Remy stopped.
"X what did he do?" Lilly turned around.
"He told Rogue he loved her." X-23 said with an indifferent tone.
Lilly's eyes went wide and she almost fell off the seat.
"I knew you loved 'er an love makes you do stupid tings, but dis is beyond stupid. You know she doesn't know what ta make of you." Lilly stood up and looked as if she were about to slap Remy.
"Remy couldn't help himself, Rogue's so…Rogue. Perfect in every way." Remy said as he got this dreamy looking look on his face.
Lilly flopped down into her seat and looked to X-23.
"Jus ignore him till da flight is ovah." Lilly sighed.
Rogue dashed up to her room and quickly closed the door behind her. She sat down on her bed just as Kitty phased though the door.
"You can't like keep this up forever." Kitty said walking over to the desk.
"Watch meh." Rogue said opening her history book.
Despite Kitty's surprisingly good advise Rogue was avoiding Remy. She made sure ditch her last class of the day and leave school early through the back door. Rogue would sneak around the entire building and hide out in Scott's car until everyone else came. Then she'd run up the stairs and stay in her room until she had to leave. The only things that could make her leave was dinner and in the morning school. Rogue even skipped out on a few Danger Room sessions.
"Why are you like so afraid of him?" Kitty asked looking up from her laptop.
"Ah'm not afraid. Ah've just been really busy." Rogue said glancing up from her history book.
"The only way I can like get into our room is through the walls." Kitty said sounding frustrated.
"It's practice." Rogue scowled.
"Now you sound like Logan." Kitty said trying to contain a laugh.
"Ah do not." Rogue said angerily.
"Whatever. Hey don't you have to like do a projectin the library." Kitty asked with an evil smirk on her face.
Rogue scowled,picked up her books and left.
