"I don't like to take a beautiful little lady's money." His accent was amazing. But you had to focus. You had to beat Remy LeBeau.
"Well it's a good thing I'm not a beautiful little lady. Are you in or out?" You looked at the cards in your hand and held your poker face.
He smirked and threw down his cards, "Straight Flush... sorry little lady." His hands go for the chips but you clear your throat stopping him.
"Now it's been a while since I last played but I do believe Royal beats Straight." You lay out the Royal Flush of hearts. Everyone gasps. No one had ever beaten Remy Lebeau. Ever.
"Impossible." he looked from you to your cards then gets up and walks out. You pocket your money and race to find him. You found him drinking at a bar a few doors down.
"I hope you are planning on buying my drink. You took my last dime little lady."
"You can have your money back. I don't want it." You give him the stack of hundred dollar bills plus a little extra. He looks at you confused but takes the money. "I just like to win."
"So do I little lady." He smirks and sips his drink.
"My name is (Y/N)."
"Remy Lebeau. You can call me Gambit."
"I know. You're name is spreading in the mutant world. Thanks to my daddy wanting you." Daddy being Charles Xavier. Well adopted daddy but who needs a backstory? Okay short backstory. Your parents died. Charles found you because of your power and took you in. There.
"What did I do?" He sits his drink down and looks at you.
"Nothing. Have you heard of Professor Xavier's School?" He nods and you continue. "My daddy is Charles Xavier. He figured I had a better chance of getting you up to the school then him." Remy smirked and got up leaving money to cover his drink and walked out. Of course you follow him.
"Little lady I don't do schools..." he just kept walking.
"You don't even know what he wants you for."
"Tell me."
"The school does more then teach kids about their powers. We teach normal classes too. We need a French teacher. Who is also a mutant."
"We? You teach? How old are you?" He looked you up and down.
"I'm 19. I teach dance classes. Please Remy... Gambit, will you please at least come see the school." You looked at him with begging eyes. He sighed and walked towards you.

"I'll come. But I don't like it I'm leaving." You smile and lead him to the waiting plane.
A few hours later your plane lands and you lead him into the school.
"So little lady what's your power?"
"It's kinda hard to describe. It's like the opposite of mind control. I pick a person and link into their mind. I can see what they see, hear what they hear, if they move so do I, and if they speak I say the same thing." You liked your power. It was good for finding hiding mutants and it's how you knew what his cards were during that poker game.
"So how can someone tell if your using your powers?"
"My eyes go black. That's the only way. They call me Puppet. Since I don't have a lot of control. I can only stop using my power."
"Interesting." He smirked and you finally got to your dads office.
"(Y/N). I missed you my dear."
"I missed you too daddy. I got Remy. I mean Gambit." You walk over him and hug him as he kisses your cheek.
"We are happy to have you Mr. LeBeau."
"Gambit. This is a trial run. If I don't like it here I'm out."
"Of course. (Y/N) will you show him to his room?"
"Yes. Follow me." You smile and walk out with Remy following.
*a year later. (I'm using Google for translating.)
"J'adore ma petite belle." Remy smiled and took your hand in his as you walked through the gardens of the school. He had been teaching you French, you had a few basic things down but not a lot.
"What does that mean?" You giggle and lean your head on his shoulder. You started dating a month after he joined the school.
"I love my little beauty. So you say J'adore mon forte beau copain." You repeat then look up at him.
"What does that mean?"
"You just pledged your life to me as my personal servant." You give him a look and he smirks. "It means I love my strong handsome boyfriend."
"I knew that. Keep talking. I like when you speak French."
"Okay... see if you know this one. Veux-tu m'épouser?"
"What? I don't even know. Tell me." He smiles and pulls out a box from his pocket. He gets down on one knee.
"It means Will you marry me?" He opens the box and shows a big shiny diamond.
You tear up and nod. "Yes. Yes. Of course."
He puts the ring on your finger and stands up kissing you. You decided now was a good time for you to tell him your surprise.
"I have to tell you something."
"Of course ma petite belle. Tell me."
"I'm pregnant. We will be a family." You smile and he picks you up twirling you around.
"You have made me very happy. We must tell the others." He smiles brightly.
"I can't wait to tell Logan." That makes him frown. Logan was like your very very protective older brother. He had been gone on a year long mission and wouldn't be happy when he found out his little sister was pregnant and marrying a guy 7 years older then her. "He should be back soon. You can meet him and tell him. Let's go tell Daddy. He already knows of course but he will act surprised." You grab his hand and go to Charles office. Before you knock you hear him in your head.
'Come in. We have a guest.' You smile and open the door. You walk in and see Logan.
"Logan!" You shriek and jump into his arms.
"I missed you too lil sis." He hugs you and sits you down. "Who's that?" He crosses his arms and looks at Remy.
"Brother this is Remy LeBeau... Gambit. My fiancé." You smile and take Remys hand.
"So I'm guessing it's his kid?" Logan looks at your tummy.
"How did he know that?" Remy looked from you to your still flat tummy to Logan.
"He can hear the heartbeat. Super senses. But yes brother. You'll be an uncle. Daddy will be a grandpa. Everything is so wonderful." You smile up at Remy.
"Super senses? I thought Wolverine had claws?" Remy got a confused look on his face.
"He does." Logan shows his claws. "You have a five second head start before I rip you to shreds for sleeping with my little sister."
"You better run." You laugh and push Remy out of the room. He goes running and Logan chasing after him. "He won't really kill him right?" You sit across from your dad on the other side of his desk.
"No. Just give him a good scare. You know Logan. Now tell me about my grandchild." He smiles.
*nine months later.*
You woke up at 3 in the morning feeling your baby moving around. You put your hand on your big tummy trying to calm the kicking baby boy. Not working. It keeps going for a few minutes then you feel liquid on your legs. You gasp and curse your fiancé for going out on that two day mission with Scott. You get your phone and call Logan.
"This better be important. I'm sleeping."
"I think the fact that I'm in labor with your nephew is important. Come help me to the medical floor." You hear him groan then minutes later he comes to your room helping you walk. You get to the medial floor and Hank sets you up on a bed. "Logan call Remy. I need him." He nods and works on calling your fiancé.
"He's over two hours away. But Scott said they're done and heading back as fast as possible." Logan comes back to you.
"This baby will here be by then. I'd say the little guy will be here in about 30 minutes."
Hank says looking you over.
"No I need Remy." Then an idea pops in your head. "Logan go get Kurt. Have him teleport to Remy and bring him back." He gives you a weird look but then you wince in pain and he goes to find blue skinned mutant.
"(Y/N) you need to start pushing." Hank ordered.
"I can't. I need Remy." You cry wanting your love. You hear a door open and look up red eyes that fade to brown.
"I'm here (Y/N). I'm here." He takes your hand and kisses your head.
"(Y/N) push." You do as told and push for 15 minutes then you hear little cries. Remy smiles and cuts the cord then the baby is taken to be checked and cleaned.
"Our little boy is here (Y/N). We have him." He kisses you and smiles.
"10 lbs 9 oz. Big boy. He looks good. We'll give you some alone time." Hank puts a blue blanket bundle in your arms then he and the nurse leaves.
You smile and move the blankets so you can see his little face. You see (H/C) hair just like yours and then he opens his eyes.
"Remy look. His eyes." You both smile as you see red eyes that fade to brown.
"Just like his daddy." Remy takes the baby from your arms and holds him to his chest.
A few hours later you hear a knock and Remy opens the door letting Charles and Logan in.
"My little girl has a baby. Give him grandpa." You happily put the little boy in his arms.
"Thank god he looks like (Y/N)." Logan smirks and touches the baby's hand. "What's his name?"
"James. James Charles LeBeau. Perfect name for my perfect boy."
