Gambit's Room

[Cyclops]

*where Gambit sleeps*

[Gambit]

The door opened and Remy walked into his room. It was messy as usual. Clothes were laying on the floor, the ones he bothered to unpack. Remy still hadn’t put anything in his drawers as he knew any day now, this place would lose it’s novelty and he’d be ready to leave, wouldn’t he? He stripped and threw his clothes into the dirty pile, which was right beside the clean pile. It didn’t really matter because he let a different student collect all his clothes and wash them for extra credit every week. One of the cool things about being a teacher is that the students will usually do anything for a good grade. That was just the kind of quality he knew how to take advantage of, within certain boundaries of course.

As he stepped in the shower for the second time in two hours, Gambit felt his muscles ease under the hot water. He first began to realize the effect of a shower soon after being adopted. Jean Luc didn’t just teach him how to steal but also made sure he was in peak physical condition from an early age. This required a lot of training. While other kids were asking why they had to take a bath, Remy was dreaming about the moment he could get under the water and let it take away all the pain and soreness. Mmmm, the only thing better was when he shared it with someone.

He stepped back into his room and grabbed some clothes from the clean pile, pair of black jeans and a rather tight Tshirt, then threw his coat on over it. He didn’t need it really, because it was a warm morning outside and it would only get hotter, but he didn‘t go anywhere without his coat. He opened the window and went out the same way he went came in that mourning. He was supposed to meet his students at the front door for a long nature hike. His class was going for it’s first training session in a real environment instead of the Danger Room. At least that’s what he told Scott, he really just wanted to get out of the classroom.
