Lady Starlight so kiss my ass
Prologue – Promise.
"Bella, ma soeur, calm down cher." Marie Boudreaux said softly as she watched her raging sister.
"Calm down?! CALM DOWN?!?!?! Marie cherie we supposed ta be gettin' married!!!" Belladonna yelled as she paced her room.
"Ah knowâ€believe me, Ah know." Marie whispered as she looked at the picture on her sister's nightstand. Ohh yeah she knew.
"He left Marie! Didn' even say anyt'in'!!! Jus' packed his clothes and left!"
Marie sighed studding her gorgeous sister. She couldn't tell her sister that Remy LeBeau had been planing on leaving for months. Not only would it destroy her younger sister, it would cause even more problems for the Guilds.
Plus she would get in major shit for not telling anyone.
When the younger Prince of Thieves had disappeared a month ago it hadn't shocked her. Remy hadn't told her anything definite. Just that he wanted to get away, he didn't even say WHAT he wanted to get away from. But Marie knew. She always knew where Remy was concerned.
"It will be alright cher. Remy jus' bein' Remy hahn. He come home soon an' yah be married immediately," Marie said, hating her self for lying to her sister.
"Remy didn' even say anyt'ing ta Henri cher. Remy tells Henri everyt'ing!"
"Ah know, Bella, Remy will come home."
"He bettah." Belladonna Boudreaux hissed before walking into her bathroom.
"Yah right. He bettah." Marie whispered as she walked into her room.
Lying on her bed was a small rectangular box with a note on the top.
Marie sat on her, carefully picking up the black box. She read the note first and the tears were instant.
Cherie-
I'm leaving now, so this will be the last time I contact you. I know it puts you in danger but I couldn't leave with out saying good bye. Will see you again one day. That I promise. Don't worry so much ok Marie. I'll be safe, I got a place to stay too, only downside, have to go to school. Be safe my Rogue.
Miss you,
Love Remy.
He was really leaving now and he wasn't taking her. Marie looked at the note one more time before hiding it in her jewelry box. She knew that what he wasn't saying, he wasn't saying on purpose. To protect her more then himself.
It had always been that way.
Marie looked at the black box sitting on her bed and placed it in her lap. She carefully lifted the lid and gasped. Inside, resting on top of black satin sat a dozen red roses all tied together by a thin silver chain. Marie took the roses out and studied the chain. Hanging from the silver chain was emerald star, all five points glistening.
Marie put the necklace on and turned back to the flowers, tucked into the corner was another note.
Told you Remy get you fresh ones.
Tears fell from her eyes as she put the roses in a vase. Even after ten years. Go figure.
OoOTBCOoOAuthors Rambles – The First chapter of Family Ties is up. Though it's more of a Prologue. This will be ROMY! The next few chapters will take place while Remy and Marie were children, and yes Marie is The Rogue. Things will be explained, but something's not as fast as I want to take my time with this. The accents will probably be terrible but I try and most French will be easy stuff. So now is the time you REVIEW I need the ego boost badly.
Disclaimer – I do not own XMEN but I do own this plot!
