Chapter 9

Although she had only one glass of wine, she was starting to feel drunk with desire. As the door shut behind them she gasped as she felt Remys hands slid lower to her butt, grabbing a handful.

"Sorry chere," he said quietly as he moved his hands back higher.

"No, it's fine, ah just hadnt been grabbed there in a while sugah," she said bashfully as she bit her lip.

Gambit grinned and kissed her neck. Her bashful side he could not resist.

Rogue giggled, "That tickles," she said and Gambit noticed goosebumps start to form on her skin.

"Look like yeh need Gambit to warm yeh up den neh?"

"Maybe...Misterr...you..,"Rogue slurred, her eyelids half closed as she became a bit drowsy. It must had been the turkey she ate for dinner that made her feel a bit sleepy as well as it being 2 am.

It didn't go unnoticed by Remy Lebeau.

Dis be too cute, he thought.

"C'mon chere, let's tuck yeh in to bed," he motioned to her bedroom.

"Ah don't know what you're talking about Remona," Rogue laughed to herself, stumbling over as she tried to walk across the room on her own.

Remy laughed and picked her up to carry her the rest of the way.

"Why are yeh so adorable Rogue, even when Remy can barely understand yeh."

Rogue placed her hand upon his cheek, caressing it and massaging it sloppily. "Because yah love me duh sugah," she added with a wink and a lazy smile.

Gambit was silent for a bit, knowing that she was right even though he knew she was just kidding. "Oui," he said quietly.

"Oui oui oui yah love me," she sing songed.

Remy thought he'd ask the question burning on his mind, "What bout you chere? Do yeh love Remy as well?"

He gently placed her on her bed but she got up on her knees and leaned against him.

She motioned for him to lean down closer to her and she whispered in his ear "Oui."

She giggled and layed back down, pulling blankets on top of her to get comfy.

Remy stood still for a moment and stared at her, taking in what she just said. Did she really mean it given her current sleepy state? Regardless he couldn't stop grinning.

Dis tres belle femme say she love dis cajun. No turning back now, she be de best femme for moi. We haven' even slept together yet but I know dis femme be special either way. She worth de wait and den some. Rogue be so beautiful, so nice, so everyting.

"Remy?" Rogue stirred, opening her eyelids slightly.

"Yes Rogue?"

"Stop starin at meh sugah A'm tryin ta sleep here."

Remy chucked. Okay maybe she only nice when she feel like it but still.

"Yah can sleep next to meh Remona," she patted the bed.

Remy happily obliged and moved to lay down. He laughed, "Dats nice of yeh chere, but please stop calling me Remona." He put his arm around her and she laid her head against his chest.

"Ah'm just teasin yah pretty boy," she said yawning.

"Now dat's better," he chuckled.

Pretty soon they both fell asleep. Remy was the first to wake up in the morning and his first thought was he wanted to always wake up next to her...
