The next day Rogue pondered this Remy person she had just learned about. She couldn't help but feel a little excited and him, he was incredibly handsome and even said he would not date any other women while dating her. She was still cautious though, it had been a long time since she had a capable prospect.
She looked at herself in the mirror and noticed a new spark in her eyes and her cheeks and lips were slightly flushed. She stared at herself for a little while longer before she snapped out of it and went to go watch TV on the couch. It was a Saturday afternoon and like always she had no plans for the weekend besides a few chores. She checked her cell phone, no messages. The select few friends she had had families of their own and were usually too busy to hang out. A light went off in her head...did Remy have children? She would have to ask that next time she saw him.
To her surprise, she sees a text come in from him just then:
Cher, did you sleep well?
A cheesy grin appeared on her face.
Yes thank ya. You?
Not too bad, was woken up by a few neighborhood dogs but other den dat it be ok. Jus woke up an taught of you.
She laughed and shook her head, Ya gotta work on ya grammar shugah.
But you forgettin dis be da way I talk Cher ;)
Yeah yeah :p Ah dont have any plans fo today actually, do u?
Non, hows bout we meet for brunch eh?
That sounds lovely.
Wan me to pick u up cher?
Uh..unless you already know where ah live then that's not necessary.
D'accord. Will be der in a bit?
Wait..how do ya know where ah live?
Followed you home last night.
So thats who that was on mah drive home.
Oui wanted to see you arrived safely.
How sweet of ya. Ty.
Rogue got dressed and ready, as she was putting her shoes on she heard a knock at the door. 'Ya here already?' she said walking to the door and opening it to find a handsome cajun standing before her as he reached out and grabbed her hand to place a slow ginger kiss.
"Well..ah'm glad yo here," she said flustered.
"Pleasure be all mine...Cher, dat be ur puppy?" He went inside and bent down to greet it.
Obie happily let him be petted and even rolled over for Remy.
"Tink he likes me."
Rogue rolls her eyes jokingly "Ah guess."
"Does your owner like dis Cajun too?"
Obie tilted his head to the side and made a cute whiney noise.
Gambit and Rogue both aww and laugh.
"Guess he be unsure."
Remy looks at Rogue and she looks away shyly.
"Do ya want somethin ta drink?"
"Oui just water."
She brings over a glass of water each and Remy moves to sit down on the couch.
She takes a sip of her water, "Ah thought we were gonna go out fo brunch?"
"Just wanted ta see yeh home first, it be nice. You live alone?"
"Yeah, it's okay ah guess. There can sometimes be a lot of traffic heard outside though, but ah will just turn music or tv on ta mask it."
She finally realized the closeness of each other on her couch and how relaxed he looked with her.
"Cher?"
"Huh?" She didn't realize he had just asked her something.
"Said if yeh would like for me to cook someting for us instead...up to you Remy be offering."
Rogue briefly gaped at him and shook her head, "Ah couldn't ask ya ta do that, besides we barely met wouldn't seem right. That sounds wonderful though, maybe some otha time though sugah," she smiles warmly.
Remys takes in her smile and his stare rests on her pouty lips. Her smile and beauty made him drunk with desire, though he held back knowing it was too soon to make any moves.
"Yeh have a tres belle smile cher," Remy smiles warmly back.
Rogue squirms nervously in her seat.
"Thanks," she manages. It really had been a while she thought. Not to mention she usually didnt get this shy or nervous around men, what was so different about him?
This does not go unnoticed to Remy and he couldn't find it more attractive, especially since she'd trying to hide it. This was far better than having a woman throw themselves at him.
Gambit chuckles at the sight of her.
"Whats so funny?"
"You cher."
Rogue is annoyed, furrowing her brows and crossing her arms. "whats so funny about meh swamp rat?"
"de fact dat you be irressistable cher rogue," with that he stood up grabbed her hands pulling her gently on her feet. 'but...'
gambit looks down at her and tilts her chin up so her eyes are on him.
'yeh be a special femme, please trust remy when he say he likes you. Deh ways you get nervous around him mean maybe yeh like me too no?'
rogue said nothing and broke eye contact, blushing.
'dats ok, m' really good at de body language. It's cute cher. Ye drive me crazy.' he runs the back of his hand down her cheek as his gaze once again falls on her lips.
