"Bout time you two showed up! What, Birdman couldn't choose with fancy smancy suit to wear?" Jaz asked.

"Always nice to see you Jazmine," Warren said through clenched teeth. Rogue was grateful that he was trying to be nice. Unlike one of her best friends

"Yeah, I like seeing you as much as I like seeing a person die of cancer."

"Bout time you two showed up! What, Birdman couldn't choose with fancy smancy suit to wear?" Jaz asked.

"Always nice to see you Jazmine," Warren said through clenched teeth. Rogue was grateful that he was trying to be nice. Unlike one of her best friends

"Yeah, I like seeing you as much as I like seeing a person die of cancer."

"Jaz," Jay said nudging her a little bit.

"What?" Jaz asked innocently.

"Well are ya two just gonna stand there? Or are ya gonna sit down and eat." Rogue's daddy asked. Rogue nodded and took the sit in between Jaz and Damon, which happened to be the sit right in front of Remy. Who was staring at them wide eyed. Damon smirked and got up and sat on the other side of Wanda. Warren took the sit next to her and held her hand.

"It's good to see you're back Remy," Warren said.

"It's good to be back home, Warren. Remy sees a lot has changed," His red and black eyes never left Rogue as he said this.

"Your right about that, even Wanda got married. I think Hell will never be the same," Jay snickered, and Wanda glared at him as if to set him on fire.

"Qui, so Remy noticed. And Remy didn't catch your name…"

"Damon Smith."

"Yeah so Damon and Wanda make, Mr. and Mrs. Smith," Ren said as she hit Cam in the shoulder playfully.

"Why couldn't your name be Mr. Smith?"

"So ya wanna tell us what ya been doin' for four years?" Rogue asked as Warren rubbed his thumb across the back of her hand softly. Remy didn't miss the gesture or the anger in that question.

"Remy was takin care of thing's Ch- Rogue."

"Things that made you leave so Rogue can marry Tweety of there? This has to be good," Jaz said. Jaz smirked when she saw that Warren was clenching his teeth from anger.

"Jaz!" Ren exclaimed as she gave her friend a disapproval look. Jaz shrugged. Before Remy could answer, Warren spoke,

"What is your problem with me?"

Jaz looked at Warren and sneered at him.

"My problem with you Warren Washington II is that you married my best friend. My problem is that your nothing but a spoiled little rich boy whose afraid to tell his Daddy, what he really thinks about being a mutant, or having any of Daddy's friends know, because that would be such a terrible thing. My problem is that you have never, In your entire life have to fight for survival, that you don't know the really meaning of hardship, that you were born with a fucking silver spoon in your mouth and wouldn't know how to do shit without your maids, your butlers, your nannies, and all that other wonderful shit that you grew up with! My problem is that you are not right for her. You don't truly understand her; you try and put her into a perfect little box so she can be your perfect little wife. But that's not who she is, she a killer, or once was, and since you can't handle that, you chose to change her. You-"

"Jasmine, that's enough! " Rogue roared at her, her chair flew as she stood up and gave her friend a murderous look.

"You don't know a damn thing about me!" Warren yelled at her.

"Really? I don't? Your father was uncaring and often cold toward you, where your mother was warm and loving, till she either died, or your father ran her off. And if he did, then you hate her for leaving you with a cold and heartless man. You feel the need to hide your mutation from the world because you know how much it displeases him. You'll do anything, say anything, to make him even look at you. You drive fancy cars, wear fancy clothes, by a lot of fancy things because it's what your Daddy expects of you. You work yourself to the bone to please him. You walk around her with an air of superiority because you think that because you come from an extremely wealthy family that you better than those around you. You marred Rogue because she's pretty. Because you need a trophy wife beside you, which is what you try and make her every chance you get. And since you're trying soo much to be like Daddy and have him except you, you neglect her. Tell me, when was the last time-"Jaz was cut off when several knives came her way.

Jaz turned to see her best friend who was slightly hovering in the air.

"Oh shit, you've done it now." Cam said as he took Ren's hand and back away from the table and Jaz. But Jaz didn't seem to care.

"Tell me Warren Washington the second, am I wrong?"

Warren didn't say anything at first, just glared at her as she glared back.

The only one really paying attention to the angry and deadly mutant was Remy. He listens to what Warren and Jaz were saying, but that was about it. He was trying to find a way to calm down Rogue. Though she might not listen to him, he still had to try.

"Rogue?" Remy said in via mind with Rouge. She turns to him, her emerald eyes full of anger.

"Wha?"

"Remy's sorry for leavin yo'. Yo' got to believe him. I never meant to hurt you Mon Cherie, never. It's just you wouldn't have understood."

"Then tell me now! Tell me why-"

"I am so sick and tired of how Remy is so much better than me! How I'm always trying to change my wife! Did you think for a moment that I love her for who she is? And if Remy so much more damn better than me, understands her better than me, and how he'd never change her; then why the Hell did he leave? Tell me why he left her and who the hell was there to comfort her when the-"

Unnoticed, Sophie went over to her daughter and son-in-law, when Warren had started talking, and when he was about to say the one subject that no one dare say, she slapped him hard enough to send him flying backward. They all looked at Sophie with a mixer of shock and disbelief.

Rogue bent down to help her husband, when Warren was finally standing; he glared at Jaz and Sophie. But soon her turned his anger toward Rogue.

"I told you! You never listen," And with that, Warren stormed out of the house. Rogue started to go after him, but stopped and turned to Jaz instead.

"Ah know ya don't like him. Ya and Mamma made that clear a long time ago. But ya didn't have ta say they things that ya did."

"That doesn't make them any less true. The truth hurts Rogue. You know that." Rogue shook her head then turned to her Mamma, who lifted an eyebrow at her waiting for her to speak. Rogue just looked at her for what seemed like hours, then turned and left. Instead of hearing the front door open and close, they heard her going up the stairs, stomping with each step, and slammed what must have been her old room.

"I knew this was going to be interesting." Damon said with a smirk on his face before taking a sip of his drink. Wanda hit him upside the head and went to go and check on her friend as did Kitty and Ren, but The Professor stopped them.

"No girls, Rogue needs time to herself. Let her be." The girls reluctantly nodded and sat back down.

The rest of the dinner was fairly quiet. No one really spoke except for the Tigers, Rogue's parents and Remy. But he only spoke when someone asked him a question. Other than that, he would frown and look at the swinging door. Wanting so badly to follow Rogue and make sure that she was alright, but even he knew that would be foolish.

She needed time to cool down. And even though Remy didn't like it, he respected it. His eyes would occasionally meet, Owen's or Logan's and seeing the death glares the two men were giving him, he also thought it best not to move for where he was sitting. Because he knew that if he were to take a step toward that door, he'd be the dinner for tomorrows night.
