A/N: Thanks to vampiremusicgirl for adding this to her favorites. (loud cheering ensues) Woo-hoo!

roguey21: I figured that if he confronted her in her room, it would be too convenient for her to make another getaway, lol. Good thing Piotr and Kitty were there to 'supervise' the two of them. Yes, Logan can't take it that his 'little girl' is all grown up now. ;)

Lucida Lownes: Aww...I'm so sorry (hugs)! I don't know what happened with that. :( Yes, all has been resolved...in that regard, at least. ;) Yeah, I have that episode. Hate the tux she was forcing him to wear. Hmm...we shall see, won't we?

xdreamernumbuhfour: Haha...let the lovin' commence! XD They aren't together in the official sense...at least, not yet. But I'm not finished yet, so who knows....

Courtney Summers: I thought the end needed a good scene of Rogue chasing Kitty for lacking her in the laundry room.

Madame Star: Aww, thanks! I liked writing the argument, the way they were sarcastic with each other. I'm really happy with that part, if you haven't already noticed. ;D

Chica De Los Ojos Cafe: Yeah, he did...what can I say? But at least he got the desired result out of it. :D Yes, she was, but I'm not so sure Rogue saw it that way. XD

roguelover321: Sure thing! :)

courtneykutie: Yeah, I figured I put off the conversation long enough, so I wanted to get it in there. Oh yes, I just had to put that in there. ;)

ColorCoated: (12)I thought it seemed fun to have them work together, for the good of their mutual friend. So happy you loved it! (13) I figured that line would be a classic Remy comment. I believe I am reading that story with Bella in it. I really don't like her! :( Yeah, I'm happy about that too. Someone, other than Remy had to step in and trap...er, stop Rogue long enough to listen to his explanation.

scotthasapoleuphisass: Hehehe...thanks! Hmm...that bears thinking about, lol! XD

Musik Drasche: Haha! Yes, I usually do reviewer replies earlier in the day, so I'm usually not sure where I'm going to start then. Funny coincidence...hehehe. Yes, our Southerners have kissed and made-up, so to speak and nobody forces Rogue to do something without consequences, lol!

Sweetcornbee: I completely agree with you. Thank you so much for saying my story is wonderful and for adding this to your favorites! :D

Chellerbelle: Indeed they are! Now we'll see what happens next. ;D

acupofchamomile: Oooh...thanks so muchly! Both for your compliment and for adding this to Story Alert and your favorites. 8D

Four girls sit in Professor's office with Logan and Scott. These men want answers and it is past time for the girls to come clean, Scott already having gone and informed Professor of Rogue's date with Gambit a few nights ago and his suspicions about the girls' role in that date.

"Alright, ladies. I would like for you to tell us about how this date came about. Exactly how did Rogue and Gambit end up going out together?" Professor asks with an upraised brow.

"Yeah, that's what I'd like ta know." Logan growls as he glares at the girls sitting before him. Scott stands in the back, assuming a stern expression with his arms crossed in front of him.

Jean rolls her eyes at her boyfriend as Kitty begins explaining.

"Like, all we wanted to do was get Rogue to get out of the house. I mean, now that she has control, she doesn't have to worry about hurting people with her touch anymore."

"So how did she wind up going out with Gambit?" Scott cuts in.

"I was, like getting to that!" Kitty replies indignantly. "So, as I was saying, we thought it would be a good idea to find her a date." Kitty gazes at the three men remorsefully.

"So somehow, you found Gambit and set it all up?" Logan inquires, jumping ahead of things.

"No, it didn't exactly happen like that." Jubes speaks up.

"Please explain, Jubilee." Professor gestures for her to continue.

"Um, well....at the time, we thought it would be a cool idea to post an anonymous date with her on eBay." Jubes informs them as she gazes down at her fingernails.

"You did what?" Scott and Logan shout in unison as Professors eyebrows shoot all the way up to where his hairline would be, if he had any.

"Lemme get this straight." Logan is really trying not to totally lose his cool. "You didn't think Rogue was capable of gettin' her own date, so you took matters into your own hands and sold her online ta the highest bidder, unaware that you coulda possibly placed her in danger?" Logan growls disbelievingly to the repentant young women.

"We're, like so sorry. We didn't think about that at the time. We just wanted to see her get out and have fun, for once." Kitty lamely states.

"I'm guessing this is where Gambit comes in." Scott says tightly.

"Yeah, he ended up being the highest bidder." Jean finally enters the conversation.

"And he did bawl us out for not thinking of Rogue's safety earlier." Amara points out.

"I see. I'm guessing that Rogue knew nothing about your project." Professor deduces shrewdly.

"No, she didn't, but she ended up having a really good time with Gambit. They left after dinner." Amara just can't help telling everyone that part.

Logan snarls, causing her to jump slightly in her seat.

"Did each of you apologize to Rogue for going behind her back and posting that?" Professor questions seriously.

"Yeah, I know Jean and I did. Did you and 'Mara?" Kitty inquires of Jubilee.

"Yep. Did it yesterday." Jubilee answers as she pops a piece of gum into her mouth. Logan places a hand over his face and shakes his head. He hates the sound of gum chewing.

"To begin with, let me convey to you how disappointed I am in all of you. Selling your teammate and friend, even if the intention behind it was genuine, is still unethical. Danger aside, how do you think she feels being bandied about in that manner? Imagine how you would feel if that were you. Here's what will be done. I believe that since it was Rogue that was sold, then she should receive the proceeds from the sale."

"All of it?" Amara asks, stunned.

"Yes, all of it." Professor answers severely. "Also, more chores will be added to your schedules, along with an extra hour of training with Wolverine every day, for one month. Hank will co-ordinate your schedules accordingly. I admonish you to think through every aspect, before implementing a plan in the future. You are dismissed." Professor nods toward the girls as they take their leave. "I have a feeling that we have not heard the entire story." Professor grins wisely to the other two men. "I believe that Hank will not only want to hear about this, but he will need to know why extra scheduling is necessary, so Scott, I want you to bring him up here and I will call Storm to bring Remy and Rogue in here."

"This oughtta be good." Logan grunts.

Scott recaps the conversation with the four women in the office to Beast.

"That is just appalling! Although Rogue and Gambit's recollection of the events should be entertaining, to say the least." Beast replies with a merry chuckle.

Storm finds the two Southerners in the media room, Gambit making Rogue laugh with jokes. Storm smiles at the couple. Rogue has never been happier and Gambit seems to be fitting in well, with the exceptions of Logan and Scott. "Those two will come around, eventually. They're just being obstinate." Storm muses to herself as she watches Rogue fall off the couch from laughing so hard and Gambit also laughing as he helps her back up.

Storm laughs lightly herself. "Rogue, Gambit, Professor wants to see you." She informs them before exiting the room. She stops, ensuring that they are following and leads them to his office. "Go on in. They are waiting for you." She regally sweeps away, heading down to the DR to begin her personal session.

"Rogue, Remy, have a seat." Professor invites, indicating two of the chairs that were just vacated minutes ago.

"Ya wanted ta see us, Professa?" Rogue queries curiously.

"Yes. I wish to get your side of this matter with the eBay posting, Rogue."

"In otha words, ya wanna know what happened between their postin' that and tha date?" Rogue asks with a cheeky grin.

"Exactly." Professor replies with a small grin of his own.

"Okay, here goes. Tha day afta they posted 'my' date, Wanda saw it an' thought it sounded an awful lot like me. She had me meet her an' she showed it ta me." Rogue starts.

"Do you happen to have a copy of the posting?" Professor questions.

Rogue hands him a sheet of paper. "Somehow, I knew ya'd fin' out about this soona or lata."

Professor looks it over carefully. "Rather ambiguous on your description, but I can definitely see why Wanda thought it was you." He hands the paper to the others, who take turns scanning it.

"Ah, that explains why all the young men were attached to their computers for the past several days last week." Hank laughs mirthfully.

Rogue blushes slightly.

"An' why not? Mon Roguey is tres belle." Remy chimes in as he puts an arm around the back of Rogue's chair. Rogue passes him a smirk.

"Oh, without a doubt." Beast agrees. "I just wonder if they are aware that the young mystery woman is none other that Rogue."

"Dey do. De Iceboy wen' an' tol' 'em." Remy informs them ruefully.

"I take it, you've had many offers, Rogue?" Hank questions her teasingly, causing the tell-tale blush to re-appear.

"I've had some." Rogue admits, almost shyly.

Remy looks at her with a quirked eyebrow.

"I didn' take 'em up on it! Geez Rems, I'm not tha kin' that dates a bunch a guys all at once. I leave that ta Tabby." Rogue gives him a direct gaze.

"If we can continue?" Logan glares at the seated duo.

"A course, Logan, 'cause we all know ya jus' dyin' ta know how Remy an' I got tagetha." Rogue retorts sarcastically. "Remy was at tha shop with Wanda an' me. We came up with a counta scheme ta get back at those four. We all put in bids, jus' ta keep things goin', an' tha original plan was ta fix it so Wanda would be my date for tha night."

Beast laughs heartily as Logan disguises a snort of laughter on his part. Scott looks away, suspiciously hiding a grin as Professor chuckles slightly.

"As it turns out, Remy an' Wanda decided ta make it ta where he would be my date. That's how tha plan worked out in tha end." Rogue finishes.

"Thank you for clarifying Remy's role in this. So, I take it he was the high bidder in this whole scheme?" Professor queries interestedly.

"Oui, I was. Wasn' 'bout t' let some stranger win an' possibly 'urt 'er o' worse an' besides, it was a bon way t' get a date wit' 'er." Remy grins wickedly at Rogue.

"Ya know, ya coulda jus' asked." She points out saucily.

"But it was mo' fun dat way." He states impishly. Rogue heaves a sigh and shakes her head.

"Just out of curiosity, how much was the winning bid?" Beast inquires interestedly.

"Would ya believe this Swamp Rat paid $500?" Rogue questions in amazement.

The men stare at Remy in astonishment.

"Oui, I did an' I would pay dat an' mo' t' do it again." Remy gazes at her seriously.

"Let's hope that neva happens again." Rogue shudders slightly.

Trus' me, it won'." Remy states firmly.

Later, in Rogue's room. Remy sits with the chair facing backward as Rogue sits on her bed. Rogue is still in minor shock after Professor informed her that she will receive whatever was left of the proceedings after eBay and/or took their fees out of the $500.

"Y'know, Roguey, we really should do somet'in' t' get dem back." Remy muses aloud.

"I thought we did with tha date an' all." Rogue answers, a tad perplexed.

"Well...dat was mo' f'r me, alt'oug' it was fun seein' deir faces w'en dey saw I was y'r date."

"I knew it, ya Swamp Rat, but yeah, I loved Jean's expression." Rogue admits. "Okay, let's plan!" Rogue rubs her hands together in an 'evil mastermind' fashion.

Tomorrow, we will find out what they will do for their revenge. If a reply to your review isn't in here, just let me know. :)
