Rogue Betrayal

By the way I’m not real good at accents so sorry. I hope ya’ll like it.

“Bonjour chere.” A voice said. Rogue turned to see Gambit standing in the door. She sighed and asked “What do ya want Gambit?” It was clear she was annoyed with Gambit being there but he replied calmly “It’s not so much what I want as it is what you want chere.” Rogue rolled her eyes and asked “What would you know ‘bout what I want?” Gambit fiddled with a poker card and said “I know what you want cause I've been watching you.” Rogue turned away from him and looked out the window “So you’re still stalkin’ me. When ya gonna give up?” Gambit walked over to her and said “I told ya I’m not stalking you. I’m watching over you chere.” Rogue glared at him “What makes ya think I need watchin’ over?” Gambit looked at Rogue and said “You’re so alone chere. All I want is to help ya.” Rogue sighed and looked at him, her voice not as harsh as it had been “If I wanted yur help I’d come to ya.” Gambit looked around her room to see the queen of hearts he’d given her a few months back sitting on her dresser. He smiled and looked back at Rogue “Chere if you didn’t want my help you’da gotten rid of the card.” Rogue turned to look at it “Maybe I just needed it as a reminder that not everyone’s as good as us X-Men.” Gambit shook his head slightly “When you realize the X-Men aren’t as good as they seems you’ll join me won’t you chere?” Rogue scoffed and looked out the window. “Whatever.” Rogue said then walked out of her room and went to class.

Through the day Rogue was thinking about Gambit. She wondered if he was right. With him she’d at least be able to use her power rather than being controlled here at the school. All they do is hold her back. They fear her don’t they? Maybe she should leave. But wouldn’t that make her just as bad as her mother? She’d be a traitor. Could she do that? The thing that bugged Rogue most was why did he ask that now? What’s happened or what’s going to happen? No one could really tell anything was wrong until after Logan’s session in the danger room where she had been particularly harsh. She was sitting on her bed in her room when someone knocked on the door. She stood up and walked over to the door. She opened it to see Kurt standing there. “Are you okay?” he asked. His voice showed that he was concerned about his sister. Rogue nodded “Course I am. Why wouldn’t I be?” Kurt looked at her and said “You seemed to be in a particularly bad mood during Logan’s training session today.” Rogue walked back to her bed and sat down. “I’m just tired ‘kay? I didn’t sleep real well.” Kurt nodded and said “Okay well if you need anysing just tell me sis okay?” Rogue nodded “Whatever.” Kurt closed her door again and teleported off to somewhere.

Late that night everyone was asleep, except for Rogue. She was standing by the window in her room. “When you realize the X-Men aren’t as good as they seems you’ll join me won’t you chers?” Gambit’s words echoed through her head. Rogue walked over to her dresser and got dressed. She looked at Kitty sleeping in her bed across the room. “Goodbye.” she said in a whisper before leaving the mansion. She was walking down the dimly lit street wondering where Gambit would be. The brotherhood place? Nah he’s better than them. She didn’t have to wonder long when she turned around a corner and saw Gambit leaning against the wall of a shop. He smiled at her “I knew you’d come ‘round chere.” Rogue waked over to him “What now?” Gambit grabbed her hand “Now we head back to Magneto’s place.” he said as he lead her off. “He ain’t even there is he?” Rogue asked as they walked. Gambit shook his head “No, it’s me and Pyro and I need someone chere to keep him under control.” She looked at him “So ya just want meh to keep Pyro busy?” Gambit shook his head “No no chere. I want you to be there with me more than for ya to watch Pyro.” Rogue sighed “Whatever just as long as that maniac don’t kill us all.” Gambit smiled “Don’t worry chere he won’t.” Rogue smiled “Good.”

When they got to what had been Magneto’s place Gambit showed Rogue around being careful to avoid Pyro who they’d heard running around yelling Gambit’s name. He showed Rogue the storage rooms, control rooms, training rooms and bedrooms. Gambit told Rogue to lock Pyro in a training room anytime she wanted to. He directed her to one of the bedrooms and told her she could sleep there and not to worry about Pyro. Rogue looked at him “What ‘bout you?” Gambit smiled slightly “I’ll be right next door.” he said and tapped on the wall indicating his room was right next to hers. Rogue nodded. They stood there for a moment then Gambit leaned towards her and kissed her. Rogue gasped and pulled away. Gambit smiled “Goodnight chere.” he said then walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.

So what did ya'll think? Good? bad? funny? What? I want feedback!
