(I do not own X-men Evolution)

Chapter 8: Je T'aime

Leaving Panama City, the two southerners drove all the way to Myrtle Beach, enjoying the time on the road, Rogue practicing controlling her powers but also training with Remy as it's been a while since she has. Remy was tough to fight against as he has training in the guild, but he found Rogue a great opponent as her skills matched his own as they trained more.

Myrtle Beach was a long drive but the two were used to their long travels to each location. It was sunny and hot, the summer weather beginning as spring came to an end. Rogue enjoyed the heat as her window was down and the wind blew her hair, Remy glancing over and smiling lovingly at her contentment. They arrive at a motel, getting out and getting a room. Rogue went to the bathroom once they got in their room, looking at her reflection after washing her hands. Her hair has grown out a little bit over the time she has been away from the X-men, her skin tanned very slightly from the southern heat and sun.

Rogue exits the bathroom, Remy coming in their room with their bags and dropping them off to the side. She walks over to him, a small smile on her lips, to which he smiles back at her. "Y' wanna do some explorin' t'morrow?" He asks.

"Sure, ah've nevah been ta Myrtle Beach befo'." Rogue smiles. "'Ll be great ta look around."

The two do their normal routine for heading to bed, ending the night in each others arms and watching something to relax. Remy was deep in his thoughts as they watched a movie, plotting something for tomorrow. He knew Rogue would like it. He just had to make sure everything would go according to plan.

Rogue wakes up in the morning to find a note from Remy and bag next to the note. Curiously, she reads the note, then looks into the bag and smiles lightly. In the bag was a green lacy cami dress and a pair of black flats. She gets up and gets dressed, brushing her hair and teeth. Her mind wondered what Remy was planning for their day, feeling her stomach twist a little bit in knots in nervousness and anticipation. Rogue hears the door open as she steps out of the bathroom, fully ready. Remy walks in with his trench coat on, a nice t-shirt and jeans on while he had one hand behind his back with a small smile on his face. "Bonjour, mon chère, y' lookin' très beau." Remy bows a bit and salutes with two fingers. "T'ought y' might like dese."

He gives her a bouquet of flowers-tulips and roses bundled together. Rogue happily accepts them, lightly smelling them. She gives Remy a smile and looks up into his eyes. "How romantic." She comments.

"Well, I jus' t'ought dat I should take y' out on a proper date is all." Remy admits, but kept his smile on his lips.

"Did ya plan a whole day for us?"

"Oui. An' I got jus' de places t' take y' t'."

"Ah can't wait." Rogue pushed a strand of hair behind her ear.

The two head out, getting breakfast then take a walk around the beach town. It was busy as it was a nice hot day and lots of people decided to go to the beach. Rogue gave an appreciative smile to Remy when he pulled her aside to a secluded spot since he knows she doesn't do well with crowded places. They sit in a shaded spot and enjoy each others company and chat until they felt like getting up, getting a late lunch-early dinner along the way.

The two southerners walk down to the beach, Remy steering them away from the crowded areas and watched Rogue take off her flats and stand in the small waves that hit the shore. She smiles and closes her eyes as she felt a nice ocean breeze hit her, then she glances back to Remy with a soft smile, noticing the look he was giving her. It was unreadable but it made her heart beat faster and her breath hitch as he walked over.

Rogue looks into his eyes, as he gazes into hers with a small smile on his lips. The two stand close together, Remy moving a strand of hair behind her ear as he scans her face. He leans in, Rogue's eyes shutting slowly as her lips part slightly, his lips kissing her passionately. "Couldn' resist wit' y' lookin' so belle." He murmurs against her lips in a husky voice.

Rogue smiles. "Why don't we go back…"

"T' de room?" Remy looks at her, curiously.

Rogue just nods, biting her lip a bit as she gazed into his eyes. Her green eyes looked like they were shining a bit to him, his heart fluttering a bit as he smiles at her.

He guides her back to their hotel room, taking paths that won't take them through crowded areas, Rogue feeling relieved and thankful as they made their way back. She enters their room, Remy locking the door then turning to notice Rogue putting on the collar. He looks at her curiously. "What y' doin', chère?"

Rogue shyly goes up to Remy, her gaze looking at the floor a bit, then finally turns up to meet his eyes. He can sense she was nervous but also felt a desire coming from her. Her hands go to his chest gently and she takes a small deep breath before speaking. "Remy… Ah want ya..." Rogue kept her green eyes gazing into his red on black ones, full of desire.

Remy gives her a small smile and cups her cheek. "Y' sure?"

Rogue bites her lip and nods. "Ya can even be rough if ya want."

Remy looks at her, his hands moving to her waist. He leans down and kisses her lips, pulling back slightly. "Jus' want t' make sure, cause once I start I don' t'ink 'd be able t' stop."

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rogue nods, her arms going around his neck as he dives back down and kisses her deeply. In one swift move, Remy scoops her up into his arms and pins her against the wall a bit, a soft gasp escaping Rogue's mouth as her lips part for him. Her hands grip his hair and left shoulder as he moves his mouth to her neck and starts to suck at her delicate skin. Rogue shuts her eyes and lets out a soft moan as she felt him bite down gently.

Remy pulls back a bit and carries her to the bed, holding Rogue against him in a firm grip. Rogue gazes into his eyes and felt her body fall back against the mattress as Remy hovers over her petite body. Her hands balled parts of his shirt as he kisses her deeply, one hand keeping her leg up against his side as he presses his body into hers. She starts to push his shirt up a bit, Remy pulling back and swiftly taking it off then his hands go up her thighs and under her dress as she brings his face back down to hers.

Rogue lets out a soft gasp when Remy takes her dress off, her cheeks a rose red color as she was now only in her underwear. She was a little self conscious about how she looked since she was just had her panties on while her arms were covering her exposed chest, but Remy gave her a loving smile that made her nerves melt away. He places a kiss all along her body, Rogue biting her lip and shutting her eyes as she let his hands pin her arms on each side of her head. "Tu es très belle, ma chèrie." Remy huskily says against her skin.

Rogue felt her heart beating fast, feeling Remy let go of her wrists which led her to reach down and undo his jeans he wore. Remy gives her his signature smirk and takes them off, tossing them to the other side of the room where her dress and his shirt was. Her eyes explore his body as she trails a hand down his muscular chest. Remy let her, his red on black eyes watching her. He can sense she was a bit anxious, so he nuzzles her and places a gentle kiss on her cheek. "Y' sure y' wanna do dis, chère?" He asks softly, making sure this was what she wanted.

Rogue looks into his eyes, nodding. "Yes. Ah want ta know what it's lahke ta feel an' touch, Remy."

"D'accord, jus' makin' sure so y' not feelin' pressured an' y' want t' do dis." Remy kisses her forehead.

Rogue gives him a smile, kissing him on his lips. She moves his hands down to her waist, his hands immediately finding her panties and tossing them aside once he took them off. A light blush was on her cheeks and it deepened once she helped remove his boxers. Now it was just skin to skin.

Remy caresses her cheek, gazing into her eyes lovingly. He made sure to be careful with her, starting off with his hands gently, then gradually going faster and a bit rough. Rogue shuts her eyes, her moans starting off soft then getting louder. She lets out a gasp, feeling a sharp pain when he finally enters her, tears pricking her eyes a bit. Remy murmurs an apology in her hair as he kisses it and lets her adjust. He felt her slowly relax as she started to pant softly as he started at a slow, steady pace.

Rogue felt her body slightly shaking as he picked up the pace, Remy kissing her neck and grunting under his breath. Her fingers dug into his back, her head falling back against her pillow as she felt her body exploded in enormous pleasure, letting out a cry. Remy had let out a grunt, both panting heavily, his eyes lidded and sweat on his brow as he gazed down at Rogue who was trying to catch her own breath. "Je t'aime, Rogue." Remy breathes out huskily.

Rogue looks at him with lidded eyes, her body exhausted. "What… did…ya say?" She pants out.

Remy gives her a smile. "I said 'I love you'."

Rogue felt like she was on cloud nine or in a dream. She smiles back, shakily as her whole body was wracked up, and felt tears stream down her cheeks as she lets out a soft, short laugh. "Ah… ah… love… ya too." Her shaky voice responds.

Remy smile widens, then he lets out a chuckle. "Y' should rest, chère. All dat pantin' an' heavy breathin' can make y' lightheaded."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He moves to lay on his side with her in his arms in a tight embrace, his arms wrapped around her shaky frame, then one hand grabs the sheets and places them over them both. Rogue didn't think she would be cold after feeling like her body was on fire moments ago, but Remy's body heat made her relax and start to drift off. Remy played with her hair as his body started relaxing, his gaze soft as he watched her drift off into sleep. Soon, he too falls asleep, his face nestled into her neck while his arms were wrapped around her small frame.

Rogue slowly opens her eyes and lets out a soft yawn as she wakes up, her body aching, then realization hit and her cheeks turn red as she remembered she was in bed with Remy, both of them naked. Her emerald eyes glance up to see his face nestled into her hair asleep still, feeling his arms around her. She lets out another soft yawn, stretching slightly, then felt Remy stir a bit. He opens one eye and sees Rogue awake, a smile forming on his lips as he wakes up. "Hi shugah." Rogue says softly with a shy smile, as she was still trying to fully wake up.

"Hi," Remy chuckles in a bit of a sleepy voice. "Y' sleep okay?"

Rogue nods. "Ah'm just sore is all."

"Well dat's gon' happen." Remy gives her a sympathetic smile, then places a kiss in her head. "Anythin' hurt? Jus' wanna make sure I didn'."

Rogue gives him a loving smile, shaking her head. "No. Though, ah'll admit ah have heard some girls say it'll hurt the first tahme."

"D'accord." Remy felt a bit of relief.

Rogue bites her lip a bit as she looks into his eyes, her heart racing a bit. "Do.. ya really love meh?"

Remy pulls her closer to his body, looking intently into her eyes. "Oui. I meant it. I don' care where we go, 's long as y' dere, chère, y' my home."

Rogue felt tears streaming down her cheeks, which made Remy worry a bit but sensed that she was feeling the same way he was. She wipes some of them away, looking up at Remy and letting out a half sob, half laugh. "Heh, ah never thought any of this would be possible. Especially you helpin' meh to control mah powers. Ah'm grateful for ya, Remy. Ah love ya so much."

"Aw, cher, don' cry." He gives her a smile and wipes a tear away from her cheek.

He places several kisses on her face, Rogue smiling. She pulls him to her, putting her arms around his body and buries her face into his chest. Remy chuckles lightly, hugging her back.

After laying in bed for a while, Rogue sits up, keeping the blanket close to her as she says she wanted a bath. She gets up from the bed and goes to move towards the bathroom but felt her legs were still sore so they wobbled before she collapsed to the floor. Luckily, Remy noticed and carried her to the bathroom and they both sat in the tub once the water was ready. Rogue sheepishly said thank you, feeling a bit embarrassed but Remy was just amused and kisses her cheek. "'M a gentleman. Not gon' let y' stumble t' de bathroom after last night."

Rogue smiles and rolls her eyes. "How chivalrous."

The two southerners enjoy their bath, Rogue turning around and putting shampoo in Remy's hair. He lets her and just watches her with an amused smirk on his lips, then he returns the favor. Remy grins mischievously once the soap was out of both of their hair, dunking water over Rogue's head while the unknowing goth let out a squeal of surprise. Remy lets out a laugh as he leans back against the tub, Rogue moving her white tresses out of her face like curtains. "Yer askin' fer it, swamp rat." Rogue glares at the Cajun, but had a playful glint in her eyes.

Remy grins back, sitting up a bit. "Oh yeah? What y' gon' do, river rat?"

He moves to where his hands were on either side of the tub, his toned chest above water and towering over her submerged body. Rogue looks up at him, then slaps the water up, the water getting him in his face as he had leaned down a bit. Remy shakes his head then presses her against the tub, a low chuckle coming from him. "Y' playin' a dangerous game, chère." Remy smirks at her, growling a bit playfully.

Rogue gives him a challenging look. The two end up making a mess in the bathroom a bit, the floor covered in soapy water as they realize the tubs water level dropped a bit. They share a look, laughing a bit. Once everything was cleaned up, towels wrapped around themselves to dry off, Rogue grabs some of her clothes and changes while Remy finishes up cleaning the bathroom.

She puts her clothes from yesterday into her bag she has been using now to carry her clothing, Remy watching her a bit as he gets dressed.

They go out for breakfast, enjoying another nice day, Rogue feeling relaxed. The two southerners end up going to several tourist sites, Remy's arm around her waist as they enjoy the sights.

And so their time in Myrtle Beach came to end as they hit the road the next day heading to Richmond, Virginia on a six hour drive, taking the scenic route. After spending some time in Richmond, they head to Pittsburgh and from there to Buffalo, New York, where they go to Niagara Falls for sight seeing. Each night to Rogue felt more romantic than the last as they continued their journey, both content with each other and never splitting apart. Remy chuckles a bit every time Rogue blushes when she says 'I love you', knowing she's still getting used to the whole romantic relationship that they have.

One night in Buffalo, Rogue stared at her cards for a while, Remy nudging her to let her know it was her turn which makes her jump a bit. "Y' okay?" He asks, a bit concerned, knowing how she was feeling at the moment.

"Ah think… we should try an' go ta the mansion tomorrow…" Rogue says, feeling like she was having a weird gut feeling. "Ah don't know why.. but… ah think we should go. Ah just got this… this gut feelin'."

Remy looks at her, knowing that once they go back to Bayville, they both know they would be questioned but also he worries a bit if he'll be able to stay with her at the Xavier school. "Do… y' wanna go back?" He asks, almost hesitant.

Rogue lets out a sigh and flops on her back, Remy watching her, knowing she was feeling conflicted. "Ta be honest… ah don't. Ah lahke bein' on the road with ya. We don't hafta listen ta anyone tellin' us what ta do or anythin'. And ah'm worried of what maght happen ta us, our relationship and bond that we have made. Ah don't want ta lose that. Ah've never been in love befo' an' ah don't want it all ta go away."

Remy gives her a sympathetic smile, laying on his stomach next to her. "I don' either. Plus, y' way t' important t' me now, chère. An' truth be told, once a thief has what they got, they ain' lettin' that go and are goin' t' guard it wit' dere life. I would hate t' lose y' t'. Dough, I don' t'ink anyone could be able t' break dis bond we got, t' strong. So if it comes down t' me joinin' de X-men, den 'm stayin' wit' y'."

"If they don't then we'll just go back to livin' on the road." Rogue gives him a smile as he puts a strand of hair behind her ear. "Although, ah doubt the Professah would say no ta ya joinin' the team. It's just mah teammates ah'm worried about."

Remy gives her a smile back. "Den I guess it's settled den?"

"Yeah." Rogue stares into his eyes. "Ah guess it is."

"Gon' be a bit of a drive t' Bayville, so we should get t' bed now, chère." Remy places a kiss on her lips before grabbing his cards and putting them away.

The two get ready for bed, Rogue having trouble falling asleep right away as her mind kept thinking about how it could all go. All she could think of is she's going back to X-mansion and she's bringing Remy with her and what would her teammates think.
