Romy; Mirror, Mirror

Title: Mirror, Mirror
Characters: Rogue, Remy LeBeau
Verse: Earth Zero; an interlude
Previous Scene: Through the Looking Glass

Wanting to do something and actually doing itwere two different things, it turned out. Fancy that. Rogue skirts the peripheral of the pool, deciding, no, she really doesn't need to go swimming. Or undress. Or put on a bathing suit that covered less than her underwear did. She ends up sitting on the edge of the pool with her jeans rolled up and her feet in the water. It's more than she'd have ever done before, so she feels a smidge less cowardly than she might otherwise. Babysteps. She'd already made out with her boyfriend in someone else's bed, after all. That, she felt, was quite enough bravery for one day.

Let Remy get down to nothing; she'd sit back and appreciate the scenery.

Remy laughed as she flew out of his arms, deep and true and then swam for the side of the pool. Placing his palms on the edge, he pushed himself out and sauntered over to the stack of towels on a shelf against the wall.

For a long time, he didn't say anything, taking his dear sweet time wrapping a towel around his hips before combing his fingers through his wet hair. "Well, den, what'dya say we go find ourselves a spare room, non? Ol'Remy can satisfy dat curiosity for sure..."

His grin was seductive, eyes warm and inviting as he held out a hand for her, muscles flexing and glistening in the soft lighting of the room.
