A week later-

Remy, John and Piotr were sitting in the living room bored out of their minds. John was flippiong his lighter while Remy was trying to teach Piotr how to play poker. He wasn't that good. "Homme, y' gettin' de hang o' it."

"No comrad. I am not. This game is ment to stay within the cajuns."

"I'm pretty good at it, mate."

"Johnny-boy? Remy beat y' t'irteen times yesterday. Y' couldn' play more because y' lost y' money."

"...Shut up, mate."

Just then the door slammed open and wanda came storming in. "Hey, shiela."

"Hey you guys. Mind if I watch TV? Thanks."

"We didn't say anything, Wanda."

"Too bad. Kitty wants me to watch this Faith Hill concert and record it while they are on a mission. I am NOT going to do it with Toad flirting with me during EVERY song."

"It's fine, petite une."

Wanda grinned and flicked the Tv on. Faith Hill came on while starting to sing Mississippi Girl. Both of Remy's comrads looked at the TV and then at Remy. Piotr was the one to say, "Maybe you should change it for a while, Wanda."

"Can't do that. Promised Kitty."

Faith Hill's strong voice came out while Remy picked up the cards from the game.

"Yeah!
Well it's a long way to Star, Mississippi.
To the big stage I'm singing on tonight,
And sometimes the butterflies still get me,
When I'm in the spotlight!"

Remy watched as Faith moved her body to the beat. She reminded him so much of Rogue. He fingered the string around his neck and what was attached to it. About a year ago Rogue had given him a necklace her mom had given her. It was a simple ring that had her favorite jewels in it. An emerald and ruby. Rogue had told him that as long as he had this ring he would always have her heart. He was planning on giving it back to her, but he realized he loved her too much.

"And some people seem to think I've changed!
That I'm different than I was back then.
But in my soul, I know I'm the same way.
That I've really always been."

Remy looked up at the screen and realised it was true. Ever since she lost control and still when he had kidnapped her and taken her to Louisiana. They had treated her with hatred or as if she was the most delicate thing in the world. Someone was always watching her. Whether it was Logan or Jean or any one else. He felt bad for her because they couldn't trust her.

"'Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways,
Just 'cause everybody knows her name.
Ain't big-headed from a little bit of fame.
I still like wearing my old ball cap.
Riding my kids around piggy back!
They might know me all around the world,
But, y'all, I'm still a Mississippi girl."

Rogue had kept her real name secret and if any one asked...she was Rogue. She had regretted killing Mystique, putting that Cody kid in a coma, alot of things. His chere wasn't big-headed and still acted like a cool Mississippian. That was why he loved her. She was amazing to him. Everything about her was. From the putting up with covering up to the sassy remarks at Logan when he gave her a hard time. They might know mutants all around the world, but she was DEFINITELY a Mississippi girl.

"Whoo!
Well I spent a few weeks in California,
They put my face on the big movie screen.
But that doesn't mean I forgot where I came from.
That's just me chasing dreams."

Remy smiled when he remembered when they were riding on the bayou. Rogue had opened up to him so much as did he with she. They had really connected that day, but it was ruined when he had let her touch him. His guilt, for once, had controlled him. He didn't want that to happen. It just did. Every day, he felt horrible for it. Still, they got along and use to be girlfriend and boyfriend.

"'Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways,
just 'cause everybody knows her name.
Ain't big-headed from a little bit of fame.
I still like wearing my old ball cap.
Riding my kids around piggy back!
They might know me all around the world,
That's alright
But, y'all, I'm still a Mississippi---- girl!"

He liked how this song reminded him of Rogue in a way. She was special, but she didn't know it. He would miss her forever. Before he stayed away forever...he wanted to see her one last time. Her emerald orbs...that sassy voice..., but especially her face. Dang he was really falling for the girl. Remy didn't mind though. Actually...he didn't mind at all.

"Mississippi Girl!
Oh, oh.
Mississippi girl!
Mississippi girl!
Yeah yeah oh oh oh oh oh oh
Mississippi GIRL!!"
