Disclaimer: I am still unfortunately not the owner of the large franchise known as the x-men. What a shame that is.
A/N: Okey Dokey! Another chapter up and I hope you enjoy. Sorry the last chapter felt "rushed" I'm just excited about this chapter, and if I drew the last one out, this one would have taken forever to get to.
"John?" Rogue called to the man across from her. It had taken Lynn all of two hours to get everything in order so that Rogue and John could move into they're new home that day.
For the whole day after they had signed the papers for they're house they spent it cleaning every inch of it. Such as finding new and very interesting things that they hadn't expected on finding, like the fact that the house was fully furnished with quite lovely furniture that they planed to keep.
"Yea?" John grunted out as he put the large oak dining table back into place after him and Rogue had cleaned the wooden floors underneath it.
"One of us is going to need to get a job, down south it looks suspicious if one of the spouses doesn't have a job," Rogue told him as she started to clean off the top of the table. John stopped, breathing heavy he looked at her.
"So are you telling me that I need to get a job?" John asked with a cocked eyebrow that currently had sweet beading above it. His hair falling loosely in front of his chocolate brown eyes.
"Um…yea," Rogue said in a chipper voice as she started to push the six chairs back into place around the large table.
"I have never worked a blue color job in my entire life and you want me to start now?" John asked her as he helped her push the remaining chairs in.
"That's exactly what I'm saying," Rogue told him as she walked around the table towards him.
"And what exactly do expect me to do? I'm a terrorist, remember?" John said sarcastically as he watched Rogue approach him. Her hands found his and laced together, her lip almost automatically forming into the all too familiar pout.
"Please Johnny? I already have a job, but we need a front job. You know something to show face," Rogue said as her pout deepened and her eyes seemed to get bigger.
"Do you really have to make that face?" John asked trying to not break down and once again give in to her.
"Only if it gets you to do what I want," Rogue said as innocently as possible as John pulled his hands from hers and placed them on her hips, pulling her closer to him.
"And if I agree, what do I get in return?" John asked expectantly as he leaned down to kiss her still pouting lips.
"Oh I don't know, but I could at least think of a few things to give in return for you services," Rogue said as she leaned into him.
"Really now?" John said almost breathlessly as he closed the space in between them. His lips traveling slowly across hers begging for entrance inside.
The kiss didn't last long before Rogue pulled away with an impish smile across her now flushed lips.
"So what exactly are you good at other than being a terrorist?" Rouge asked as John groaned his distaste at the sudden discontinue of they're making out.
"I have an EMT license," John said with a shrug as he stepped away from her and picked up one of the cleaning rags. Rogue stood there for a minute looking at him in almost disbelief.
"What? You're not the only one with secrets you know" He told her with his customary smirk and a wink.
"You know," Rogue said with a different look in her eyes, an almost evil look.
"When we first got here I was looking through the want ads, I did find a opening for someone with talents like that," Rogue told him as the evil smile she had on her face grew.
"And that would be…?" John asked clearly unaware of Rogue's malevolence attitude that seemed to have appeared from no where.
"A firefighter," Rogue said almost laughing at her own suggestion. John dropped the dusting rag as he turned to stare at the woman he might end up spending the rest of his life with.
"You have got to be kidding me," John said as he stared at Rogue with a gapping mouth.
"The irony in it would of course be quite hilarious and very John if anyone from our past found out, and..," Rouge stopped as she moved seductively towards John.
"I love a man in uniform," and with that she planted a chaste kiss on the side of his mouth before sprinting off towards the back of the house. John taking a second to let the idea of being a firefighter set in before chasing after her.
Following her into they're now joint bedroom, he watched as she raced towards the end of the bed. John closed in fast on her catching her easily and tossing her onto the bed.
"You know being a firefighter might not be that bad of an idea," John mused as he brushed strands of Rogue's platinum and chocolate hair from her face. Placing a feverish and almost playful kiss on her lips, his hands immediately roaming over her lithe body, her hands grasping his dirt and sweat covered shirt.
"John…," Rogue said in a breathless moan.
"Yea," he replied as he went to land another kiss on her lower neck.
"Someone's at the door," Rogue told him in almost a giggle as she heard him let out an agitated moan, before sliding off her body and pulling her up into a standing position.
"Shall we," John said in a mock bow and a still irritated voice.
"We shall, ladies first," Rogue said in the same bow but with a huge smile on her face as she directed John out of there bedroom.
"Why thank you," He said jokingly as he marched towards the disturbance at the door. Without even looking he swung open the door to find a beautiful black haired beauty before him.
"Why hello Pyro," the woman said with an all too familiar smile.
"Hello Mystique," he responded as he felt Rogue come behind him.
"MAMA!" She screamed pushing John out of the way and hugging her self the older woman.
"Mom?" John asked confusion disfiguring his features.
"Well of course, who else do you think would have bred such a beautiful creature?" Mystique said with a smirk. Rogue just rolled her eyes as she ushered her "mother" into the new house.
"But wait, if you're her mother then who is her father?" John asked as he looked from Rogue to Mystique automatically comparing the two.
"Well who else, the Wolverine of course," Mystique said as she looped her arm through her daughters as she lead her towards the kitchen.
"Wait Logan!?" John asked really confused now.
"See mama this is why I asked ya to come down and help me explain," Rogue told her as she pulled out a clean glass from one of the various white washed cabinets.
"Well it is a confusing story my dear, thank you," Mystique said as she took the glass of ice water from Rogue.
"Let me explain," Mystique said as she took a sip of her ice water.
"Rogue's real name is Marie Ann Darkholme. She lived with my on and off again lover Destiny until her powers manifested at that point we brought her into the brotherhood. She was to become and has up until this point been a spy for the brotherhood," She paused and took another sip of her ice water before continuing.
"For three years we had trained her in becoming the top most spy, she even trained down in Louisiana with the thieves' guild for awhile," She looked at Marie at this point who was blushing a bright red at the mention of Louisiana. John raised an eyebrow to her but he got the notion she would tell him later.
"Finally she gained control over her mutation with the help of some very powerful mutants. Then we dropped her off in the middle of nowhere and told her to hitch hike where ever she wanted to, all she had to do was get picked up by Xavier and play her part," She looked over affectionately at her daughter as she continued.
"Who would have thought her father would be the one to pick her up at that bar in Canada? Sabertooth never really liked him much so the beating he gave him was more than thrilling and enough to get Xavier and the rest of his fellow X-men believing we were after her. So of course we had to do that stupid little plot where we kidnapped her and "forced" her into that bloody machine," Mystique said as she sighed.
"Well at least that gave you the opportunity to infiltrate the X-Men and get Xavier out of the way for awhile why'll you gained access to his accounts," Rogue said with a smile as if remembering the supposed "horror filled day."
"True and it pushed you even further into Xavier's good graces. So much so he even made you a junior X-man, how poetic. Of course I was displeased to find out that my daughter was actually consorting with that little icicle-boy. But she did well all the way up until the point that the war had broken out. What a show making everyone thinks that you were going for the cure, priceless if you ask me," Mystique said with a proud smile.
"Well mama I did do my very best, I think they are all still fouled," Rogue said as she grabbed her mothers drink and refilled it. Mystique nodded her thanks and continued.
"However I was very pleased in her choice to go to San Francisco and save one of our own. Especially it being you Pyro, you did a great service to the Brotherhood. So if there is anything either of you ever need, we are all in your dept," Mystique said as she looked at the couple.
"Thank you mama," Rogue said as she came around the counter and hugged her mother, tears in her eyes.
"Anything for you my dear," Mystique said as she patted Rogue's back.
"Now let's get you moved in shall we?" Mystique said happily as she moved away from her daughter and looked around the house.
John sat there for a moment letting everything sink in as he watched the pale, green eyed beauties discuss the new layout of his new home.
'This isn't going to be that bad after all," John said to him self as he stood from his chair and made to start moving more furniture around. Then with one last glance to Rogue who smiled brightly at him.
'Not that bad at all,' he said as he smiled back happily. Happy for the first time in a long time.
A/N: Okay now that was a long chapter! Five pages! Wow! Well I hope you enjoy. See two cool twists! Wolverine is her father! Who would have thought that? Well I added that because I thought back to x-2 when Mystique went into his tent after the "crash" it was never really explained why she did that. So that's why, they were lovers at one point. Lol.
A/N: And she has been with the brotherhood from the very beginning how lovely! Lol. Well Hope you love it as much as I do and you review! Thank you to the people who have been doing it religiously, o-jackie-o, pyrowhore, Solsticekpx (now if you are referring to the car in your user name, just wanted to say I work for a Pontiac dealership and we have a brand new one in black on black with red leather sticking it's amazing!) lol. But I thank you all and if I missed anyone I'm sorry but thank you for the review!
