Avec Toi Toujours

~*~

When you feel like jumping,

Just when your heart starts pumping

When you're standing out on that ledge-staring over the edge

I'll be there to talk you down,

I'll be there before you hit the ground

If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do

Tonight's the night, I'm gonna prove it to you

Do I have to break down, baby just to break through

If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do

-Bon Jovi

"Great news!" Moira called rushing outside. "Carol just woke up!" Remy could feel Rogue tense in his arms and kissed her on the top of her head. The others followed Moira inside.

"Chére?"

"Should we go in?"

"Oui," Remy said honestly. "If de femme is angry wit' toi it be best dat she sees ya now."

Roguy sighed. "Lead on, swamp rat." The two walked inside almost running into Kitty and Pete.

"Rogue, like, what's going on? Betsy just called us... what?" Remy and Rogue tried to hide their laughter. Rogue reached out and smoothed the brunette's hair for her and Remy smirked at Pete.

"Remy don' t'ink dat shade fits you." Pete looked in the nearest mirror and cursed wiping at his mouth.

Kitty flushed deeply. "Oops," she murmured.

"Wot happened?" Pete asked after ridding himself of the last traces of Kitty's lipstick.

"Carol's awake," Remy said.

"`At where yer goin?" Pete asked.

"Oui." The four started the walk downstairs. Pete led the way into the med-lab. Carol was talking to Betsy and Moira when they entered.

"Rogue," Carol said her voice slightly chilled.

"Ah'm sorry," Rogue said all the guilt the others had been attempting to get her over crashing back over her.

"Carol," Pete said a warning in his voice. Carol looked at him and he nodded to Rogue and raised his eyebrow.

She winced slightly at his look, know that this was Pete's polite way of saying: stop being a bitch. "Look, I know it wasn't your fault. I... I still can't stay here. For what it's worth though, I do forgive you." Rogue nodded gently and left with Remy following close behind. Kitty looked at Pete and he smiled down at her.

"Go ahead, luv." She kissed him on the cheek before leaving to follow her friend. Pete watched her go before he turned to Carol and let himself smile slightly. "Glad t' see yer alright."

"You love her," Carol said after the others also left.

"Wot in the bloody `ell are ya talkin' `bout?!"

"See, you just proved my point. Your accent gets a lot deeper when you're agitated."

"Carol, you know me. I *don't* fall in love."

"*Didn't*, Pete, now though..." she smiled at her ex-lover, "I can see the way you look at her."

"Right."

"Go find her and tell her," Carol grinned.

"I ain't gonna tell `er anythin' `cause `ere's nothin' t' tell!" Carol only laughed as Pete walked out the door.

Upstairs

Kitty sat with Rogue as the Southern Belle watched more snow fell. "She was totally wrong," Kitty said. "I mean, she accepted your apology but she's the one who held on to *your* hand. It's not completely your fault." Kitty knew better then to tell her friend that it wasn't at all her fault.

"Thanks, Kit," Rogue said. Remy came back into the room from his own carrying several DVD's.

Kitty smiled slightly. "I'll leave you two alone."

"You don't have ta go," Rogue told her friend.

"It's cool," Kitty told her. She left.

"You okay, chére?" Remy asked sticking in a movie.

"Yeah," Rogue said curling up next to him as he sat down on her bed. Remy reached into his pocket and pulled out a bulky bracelet.

"Chére dis be fer y'," he said.

"Um, Rem, I know it's the thought that counts..."

He chuckled. "Have you ever seen any of the inhibition collars?"

"What?"

"They negate a mutant's power for as long as they wear it. They can only be taken off by key dough. Dis has the same technology and you'll be able to remove it any time ya want."

"So, if Ah wear this Ah can touch."

He smiled. "Oui." She held out her arm and Remy placed the bracelet on. He then leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. Rogue sighed happily.

"It works." She cuddled closer laying her head on his chest and taking off her gloves so she could hold his hand without any barrier. Remy, not one to pass up the opportunity of a young woman cuddled up with him held her tightly to his chest. They actually did watch the movie for thirty minutes before; unable to resist the temptation Remy tilted her head up and kissed her softly. Rogue's eyes went wide and she pulled away slightly.

His red on black eyes bored into her green ones. She smiled up at him and leaned in kissing him slowly. Remy lifted her slightly so she was sitting astride his lap. He then deepened the kiss sliding his tongue into her mouth. Rogue moaned very softly moving her own tongue to move against his.

Remy pulled away before lowering his head softly kissing his way down her neck. He moved back up now using his teeth and tongue, alternating between licking and biting. She moaned reaching out and taking his face into her hands and pulling her his head towards her kissing him softly. She laughed rolling her eyes before sliding his shirt off and unzipping his jeans then tugging on his boxers.

"Are ya sure, `bout dis?" he asked.

"I've never been surer."

"'Surer'?" he grinned. "Remy needs ta go fer his wallet."

"You don't," Rogue said smiling up at him. "Moira put all of us on the pill when we first got here. It's had enough time ta become active."

"Good," Remy said. "`Cause Remy don' want anyt'ing between us." He slowly slipped her clothes off of her, tossing them behind her. Remy ran his hands lightly over her exposed skin. "Chére, you are so belle." He reached around her, finding the zipper and slowly slid it down pulling the garment off of her. "So damn beautiful," he murmured leaning down and taking one pert nipple, then the other into his mouth. He swirled his tongue around each one in turn in a lazy circular pattern.

"Remy," she said her tone breathy. He moved back to her lips kissing her hungrily. He ran his hand over her bare stomach causing her to shiver. He slowly ran his hand lower, gently stroking her curls.

"So soft." He went back to kissing her, exploring her mouth passionately. He slid one finger into her, then another. Soon she was writhing under him moving in time with his hand.

"Remy," she said her voice almost a purr. She looked up at him catching her breath and trembling. She then sat up and pulled his boxers off of him. He stepped back to remove them the rest of the way himself. She looked down at his manhood then back up into his demonic eyes. "Um... Rem?"

"Oui, petite?" he asked climbing over her.

"Is it always that big?"

He chuckled. "Remy knew there was a reason he loved ya." She looked confused but he just kissed her while positioning himself. "Are you ready?" She nodded. "Trust me, chére. Just let me lead."

"Okay." He lowered himself slipping slowly into her. She gasped at the odd feeling.

"Okay, dis is gonna hurt." Before she could respond he kissed her and thrust all the way through. She would have cried out but his mouth muffled any sound that she would have made so all she could do was whimper. He pulled away to looking into her eyes. He felt his heart break a little at the tears on her cheeks. "Je suis desolé, ma chére. I'm going to start again. D'accord?"

"Okay."

He kissed her softly. "Slip your legs around my waist." She obeyed. He slowly slid out before thrusting back in. He moved at a painfully slow pace.

"Rem..."

"What do you want?" he asked huskily.

"Faster." He smiled and obliged her moving quicker, filling her completely.

"God, chére, ya feel so good." He lowered his head kissing her as he moved within her tight passage. She moaned as he moved even quicker. She could feel a tension building in her body. A few more thrusts and she felt her body explode again. Remy could feel her tense around him and groaned as he allowed himself his own release.

The two collapsed together both sweaty and breathing hard. "Wow," Rogue whispered.

"Oui," Remy whispered.

"Is it always that good?"

"It has never been dat good fer Remy," he muttered pulling her closer and turning the TV off. "Ready fer a nap, ma chére?"

"Yeah," Rogue muttered tiredly.

"Bon." He smiled a little. "Chére?"

"Yeah?"

"Je t'aime."

"What?"

"Y' heard me."

"Ah... Ah love ya too, Rem." He smiled widely and kissed her.
