Okay, on with the chapter.

It was around 3 o’clock when Remy could hear the ruckus of restless teenagers as they were coming through the front doors. The younger kids were outside playing on the grounds while some of the older students were relaxing in the lounge. He heard the television click on and heard some argument about what to watch. Remy was in the kitchen getting a snack when he heard the professor’s voice in his head. He didn’t think he would ever get used to that. He was instructed to come into Professor Xavier’s office. He did so, even though he would have rather spent his time in his real pursuit, but Remy La Beau was a patient man. He knew the time would come.

He waited patiently as he heard voices inside the office. There were several female voices that he recognized. “Professor, what’s this about?” came a female voice which he recognized belonging to Jean Gray.

“Very simple, Jean,” the professor said. “As of today we have a new member on our team.”

“Wow! That’s totally exciting,” the girl called Kitty practically shouted. “Guy or girl?”

“A young man…,” the professor said as he unlocked the door. “One you all know.”

“Settle down, Kitty,” Rogue said. “You got Lance, remember.”

“I know that,” Kitty said. “I was just like curious.”

Remy rose from the chair he was sitting in and looked to see the professor, three teenage girls including Rogue, and two boys, but his only focus was on Rogue. She suddenly looked up to meet his eyes and her mouth flew open in shock. A smirk came across his face at her reaction. The professor started to speak but all Remy could see was her. She was staring at him just as much as he was staring at her. The world just seemed to fade away and it was just the two of them looking into each others’ eyes.
