Chapter 5: Different Times
Three years later; October 10th, 2005; 12pm
Rogue, who was now eighteen, was in the kitchen making herself and Logan a sandwich for lunch. Logan and she ate lunch together a lot even thought she is taking her college classes online, not her high school classes anymore. Normally she would go pick Jamie up from kindergarten, but today Kitty (one of the new recruits within the past few years) said she would pick him up during her lunch break.
"Mama! Mama!" Jamie yelled as he ran into the kitchen and saw her finishing making the sandwiches.
"Hey darlin', what's goin' on?"
"Mama, I got mah first A!" Jamie yelled happily.
"Congratulations!" Rogue said as she gave the boy a careful hug. "Let's go tell grandpa. He is in the library." Rogue grabbed the two plates and followed the boy. Jamie was so excited he was not paying attention and ran right into someone.
"Whoa dere p'tite." Remy LeBeau (another recruit) said to Jamie. "So p'tite, where y' and y' belle mere headin' to?"
"To talk to grandpa. He is in the library." Jamie replied matter-of-factly.
"Why don' y' head over dere. Remy will help y' mere wit' dese plates."
"Ok." Jamie skipped off down the hall happily.
"What do ya want Swamp Rat?" Rogue asked Remy.
"Jus' y' chere. Jus' y' company." Remy said with his ever present smirk. Remy took one plate from Rogue and started towards the library with Rogue walking next to him.
"Come on mama!" Jamie called to Rogue as she and Remy made their way to the library door. Remy held the door open and Rogue lead the way to Logan.
"Hey stripes. Thanks." Logan said as she put a plate down for him.
"Grandpa! Guess what!" Jamie yelled as he ran towards Logan.
"What kid?" Logan asked as he pulled Jamie on his lap, looking just like any natural grandpa would.
"I got mah first A today!"
"Well, congratulations kid. You are gonna be as smart as your mom before ya know it!"
"Here Jamie, take this half of mah sandwich an' go tell the Professah." Rogue told the little boy.
"I will go with you kid. I got to talk to Chuck 'bout something." Logan grabbed his plate and left with Jamie, leaving Rogue and Remy alone in the library.
"So chere, how 'bout y' an' dis Cajun go out t'morrow?"
"No thanks Remy, and when are ya gonna stop askin' meh?"
"Never mon chere, never."
