So here is Chapter 2, thanks for all the comments, I hope they keep coming as I welcome any ideas / feedback
It was Remy that disturbed the tense silence that had settled around this current scene, tentatively pushing himself away from the bathroom wall taking slow and deliberate, Cautious steps towards the young woman whose eyes had once again fixated upon the object in her left hand.
'Remy be hoping monsieur bête don't see this'
He slowly crouched before her, a timid hand brushing lightly down her arm, fingers entwining with hers that immediately grasped them tightly.
'Hank would be tres upset if he knew how much you doubted his medical expertise chere', a hint of humour slipping into to mix with the concern that tainted his usual debonair grace as he surveyed the clutter of tests that lay near.
Remys heart skipped a beat in relief when a raspy chuckle resonated from Rogue in response.
His remaining hand gently caressed her snow white cheek, thumb absently trailing back and forth as she leaned in towards it, eye lids falling shut as she absorbed the comfort that this little gesture provided.
'We're having a baby', she whispered, her voice so light it barely breached the silence. Dazzling emeralds once more sparkled under the clear white light that held them.
The expression that captured Remys face was one that had only ever emerged for the southern belle, true love and adoration adorning the chiselled features too often concealed by his customary debonair smirk.
Titling forward, he closed what little space was left between them, foreheads resting against each other. Lips met in gentle harmony as her arms crept around his neck, his circling her waist, drawing her up to stand flush against himself …a perfect fit …
It was in elation that, in repeating between soft kisses 'We're having a baby', his whispers intensified into ecstatic shouts as he twirled his laughing southern belle around, his shouts reverberating through the mansion.
