Remy looked down at the figure that was currently pinned down by his hands
on its shoulders and lower body that straddled it. It took him a second to
realise it was female, the curve of breasts and the small flair of hip
showed him that much. It took him less than that to realize who it was. Two
green eyes looked at him, through a mass of auburn and white curls,
unblinking in a state of total horror, the two lips parted in shocked 'o'.
They faced each other in silence. Even as Remy suddenly realised the little
amount of clothing they wore though, any thoughts of anything were torn
away by one word. One tiny insignificant word. One that ripped through his
heart like a jagged piece of glass.
"Monster."
It echoed back in the caverns of his mind, mingling with voices of the past.
"Monster.Monster.Monster.MonsterMonsterMonsterMonster..." the chant grew. He shut his eyes. Eyes that he wished he could gouge out at times. Eyes that showed him for what he was. A Monster.
She looked up at him, her breath stuck in fear. No. It couldn't be.. he was dead.. Red eyes. So alike to those she knew and hated so well. Red eyes to stand for the blood she had been forced to spill. For him. For it. In the dark it seemed as if those red eyes were set against a background of black, differing to his; yet she took it as a trick of her own eyes. It had to be him. He was coming back for her. She tried to get words out. ~Ahm not coming back to ya Sinister! You monster.~ but all that came out was one word. "Monster."
What happened next though surprised her to no end. She saw emotion in those eyes. Sadness. Despair. Hurt. The creature she knew NEVER showed emotion. She looked at him properly now as her eyes slowly got used to the darkness. Only now she could see, his face was tanned, not the unnaturally white face she despised. No red diamond on his clear face. Auburn hair that fell down framing his chiseled features, not black. The eyes closed. The familiar features hit her harder than ever, until recognition was finally placed in her mind. ~*Oh shit…*~ Before she could move or apologize he got off her; his eyes still shut tightly.
"Remy.." the apology faltered on her lips. Silence. It was so thick she felt like she could drown in it.
A light was turned on, the sharp brightness of it almost blinding. She blinked trying to get rid of the dancing spots of light in her eyes. When she opened them again she saw him. A breath caught in her throat. He was utterly gorgeous. Well-defined figure that was lean yet muscular. Arms that crossed over his rock-hard abs, his face facing down slightly so that his hair flopped over his eyes. The wave of pleasure was covered by a wave of guilt as she saw that his eyes were still shut. Yet even as those two emotions fought against each other another rose. Confusion.
"Remy, where the hell am ah?"
A slight blanket of silence followed.
"Y'r in de thiefs guild Rogue."
"Can ya explain ta me what ah'm doin here?"
"We brought y' here. Y're t' live wit us."
She almost broke out laughing. From sweating in fear, thinking it was the creature from her past, to hopelessly wishing it were her friends; the two strong thoughts had been tearing at her, yet oddly enough any thought of the thiefs guild had escaped her. It made the most sense. She had joined their organisation. Not to mention as they were the THIEFS guild, they had probably found it simple to sneak in and 'steal' her and her furniture away. She had completely forgotten and now due to her very own over- reaction she had hurt her fellow thief, her recruitor. Her mind set. She had to make it up to him, or at least try to make him understand.
She got up from the bed and walked over to him.
"Open your eyes," it was an order. Soft but firm.
A look of incredoulosity appeared on his face as he did as she said. As his eyes blinked open he nearly fell backwards; she was standing directly in front of him, face only inches away from his own. His body burned at her gaze, as her eyes looked over him appraisingly, stoppingto meet his own. Her hand reached up slowly. As a reflex he backed away; he had been slapped countless times already by other women. Yet what she did next was totally unexpected. Her slim fingers touched his cheek tenderly, tracing a small path towards his eyes. As they neared them he shut his eyes again automatically. He heard her let out a aigh of frustration. Then to his surprise he felt a pair of soft lips graze over both his eyes. His eyes snapped open. She stood there, as beautiful as ever, her green eyes boring holes in his own.
"Ya shouldn't hide gems like those sugah. Bein' a demon ain't that bad," his eyes narrowed at the phrase, "just take it from the "spawn of satan" herself."
Though her words were nonchalant, her heart rolled as she said the very same words her father had, years ago when he had thrown her out into the unknown to fend for herself. Yet as Remy's features brightened whatever little pain she held herself dissipated. As charming and mysterious he could be at times she had never seen him genuinely smile as he did now.
"Well I guess this gal betta get back ta her beauty sleep sugah." She tip- toed and kissed him gently on his cheek. Then she turned to leave, glancing one last time to his magnificant figure, still silent in shock, before leaving his room.
Remy looked on as the door shut softly, his head still turning at the events that had just occurred. Had she meant any of it? With a girl like Rogue he could never be sure. Yet there had been a light in her eyes when she had said those words, a light akin to his that spoke volumes of an emotion he knew so well. Pain. He felt curiously light-headed as he made his way back to his bed, a flurry of unknown feelings barracading him. Questions swirled in his mind.
Had she ment it?
Did she really care?
Was it all a joke as her kiss had been?
Yet even all those questions were subsided by one that hovered impendingly.
Was he falling in love with her? Remy had ignored those feelings before but now... He slid into the covers, having turned the lights off, replaying the feel of her smooth fingertips running along his face, the soft brush of her lips on his eyes and cheek. As he shut his eyes one single image imprinted itself in his mind. A pair of glowing emerald eyes, belonging to a woman who he feared, feared since she seemed to have captured what he had kept to himself for so long. His heart.
As she shut the door she stood outside in the corridor, her heart thumping slightly faster. Yet even as those familiar butterflies rose in her stomach she quelled them, as she had all these years as memories of the men in her life fluttered. Her father. Sinister. Cody. The last name strung a bittersweet chord in her heart.
~*Never again.*~
She closed her eyes as her mind brought up one more picture of him. Tears of regret escaped, falling down her cheeks, but her mind was still made up. She didn't want to feel the pain again. So she kept her promise to herself she had made all those years ago. She would never love again. Sure she could make men love her, but she wouldn't render her heart and soul to another man like that ever again. Her eyes snapped open, the green glittering so fiercely that it could have rivaled Remy or Sinister's natural flames of red. As she made her way to her room only one face stood in her mind. The boy who helped her. The boy who loved her. The boy that would betray her.
Cody.
