Prelude to Female Bonding

As hot and bothered after watching two beautiful men sweat and pummel each other as Cate was once Remy and Scott had finished sparring, she managed to leave Logan in the observation room without jumping him. After all, she had a date with Rogue.

“Leavin’ me already, darlin’?” he’d asked when she gave him a kiss on the cheek and made to leave. “Dontcha wanna keep me company while I reconfigure the computer for the mornin’s simulation?”

“Ugh,” she grimaced. “Don’t remind me that I’ll be right back here in,” she paused to lift up Logan’s wrist and took a look at his watch, “nine and a half hours, sweets. Besides, I have a date with Rogue in my bedroom.”

Logan growled both in irritation and jealousy. She just loved to tease him about Rogue. But since she seemed pretty into the idea of the three of them getting together, he’d let it slide.

“Don’t growl at me, Mr. Grumpy Gills,” Cate sassed. “We have important girlie stuff to do.”

“Call me Mr. Grumpy Gills again and I’ll hide the Finding Nemo DVD, Catie,” he grumbled, but once his brain registered the phrase ‘girlie stuff,’ his annoyance at the dreaded nickname (which had come into wide use after Cate and Jamie brought that movie home a month ago and was just now beginning to fade) quickly turned to avid interest. “You said girlie stuff?”

“Indeed I did,” she smirked. “But if you keep on about taking away my Nemo, you’ll never know.” It frightened him to know that she was serious. His tough as nails Catie was a sucker for that goddamn fish. As long as he was bound to live, the man knew he’d never understand it.

“Fine, Catie,” he sighed. “But if I’m good will ya take pictures?”

“You are such a dirty old man, Logan.”

“I thought that was why ya hung out with me, my darlin.’” He turned that grin on her and she was done for. When Logan smile her her, just for her, and his warm chocolate eyes lit up, it melted her heart. She couldn’t help but smile back. God, she just adored that man.

“I have many reasons, sweetie. That’s just one of them.”

At that, she blew him a kiss and sauntered out the door, well aware that he was staring at her ass.

With a Logan inspired smile, Cate entered her room to find Rogue on the empty bed reading the punk’s Sandman comics. The moment she walked in, the younger girl glanced up at her with an odd grin. Cate knew exactly what was about to come out of her mouth.

“Sugar, why’d ya pick a comic book charr tor to name yourself after?”

“I did *not* name myself after Delirium of the Endless, Rogue,” Cate protested. “I, um, just thought it fit. So there.” In a very non-mature gesture, she stuck her tongue out at her best and started to rifle through her CD collection. While she hadn’t had much when she came to the Institute, she’d had a DiscMan and a few CD wallets containing the music she couldn’t live without.

After popping the Cramps’ Flamejob into the stereo that Xavier thoughtfully provided for all of his students, Cate flopped on her bed facing Rogue. The Southerner put the books aside and looked at her expectantly.

“Ya gonna tell me what’s been goin’ on today with Scott?“

“He just said he was sorry for being an asshole and we called a truce.”

‘If one can call it that--I was seconds away from offering to rock his world,’ she thought with a smile.

Rogue caught the gleam in her friend’s eye when their team leader was mentioned. She couldn’t believe she hadn’t caught it before. Her best friend was lusting after the jackass who’d been putting her through hell.

“Don’t hand me any bullshit, sugar. Ya want him!” Rogue hissed. “What the hell’s all that about? Especially after being such a self-proclaimed asshole for the last couple of months!”

“Don‘t ask,” Cate grud. d. “I don’t know how my fucked up libido works. But I definitely want every inch of that stuck-up male. What the hell is wrong with me?”

“Well, Ah’m the wrong girl to ask, sugar,” came Rogue‘s sheepish admission. “I had a thing for him for almost two years.”

“Hah!” Cate exclaimed. “So I’m not the only deviant to succumb to his preppy-boy charms. But I just can’t help myself. I just want to have my wicked way with him until he forgets all about that gigantic stick in his ass--you know what I mean?”

“Damn straight,” Rogue agreed with a grin of her own. “The boy makes Dockers look way better than they have any right to. So, whatcha gonna do ‘bout it?”

“Make him my next victim, of course,” Cate stated mischievously. “It’s been so long since I’ve had a decent challenge.”

“Speakin’ of a challenge, Ah overhead Ray bet Bobby that you’d be fuckin’ Logan by the end of the month,” Rogue disclosed with a smirk. She had her own suspicions about the two of them. In a mansion full of social misfits, Cate and Logan were like no other and drawn to one another. If they hadn’t already had sex, she’d be surprised. So, Cate’s reply wasn‘t a shock.

“Interesting,” Cate said with a wry smile. “I wonder what the kid won.”

“Ah knew it, ya skank,” Rogue shot back jokingly. “Ah knew the two of ya would get it on.”

Rogue’s lack of ire at her admission had Cate slightly thrown. The younger woman had feelings for Logan, she was sure of that, but the empath didn’t sense a bit of anger and only a teeny bit of jealousy.

“You’re not at all mad at me?” she asked incredulously. “Of course I really should’ve thought of that before I slept with Logan, but--”

“Sugar, hush. Ah’m not mad at ya. Ah know the the two of ya connect. Besides, at least one of us is gettin’ some.”

All joking aside, that statement was made with sadness. And as often as Cate tried to persuade Rogue that she did have a chance at intimate relationships, Rogue just couldn’t wrap her mind around it. Tired of seeing her dear friend hurt because of her mutation, Cate decided to prove to Rogue she could be touched.
