A little While Later
**
Ororo climbed the stairs to her attic room, her daughter trailing behind
her, "Mama!" Dani called, "Is this where we are gonna live?"
Ororo grabbed the door knob, "For a little while.." She opened the door.
Taking a deep breath, she walked into the room, "Come on Dani" her daughter
climbed up after her.
Ororo looked around, the furniture in the room was covered in sheets, and a
few closed boxes were around the room. She inhaled deeply, and though the
air was musty, there was a faint scent of sandalwood. With a sigh, Ororo
began to work.
After all of her old furniture was uncovered, Ororo had set out on the task
to find some linens, but things had been moved around in the time she had
been gone. There was an entire new wing, dedicated to several new
classrooms on the first floor and dorms on the second and third floors.
And because of this, many of the old dorms and closets in the original
mansion were storage, and she wasn't sure where spare things had been put.
As she walked she recognized old things, but where there had been walls
before there were no walls. And vice versa.
"Ororo" a deep voice was heard behind her. Ororo whirled around, and came
face to face with Logan.
And gradually, a voice from the past began to echo in her head
"What the Hell, are you doing? I know you are mad but for fuck's sake
Ororo, That's Victor creed! The man who lied to you! Pretended he was your
husband. Any of this ringing a bell? Have you lost your fucking mind? What
kind of fucking idiot are you?...To think, I spent all of that time looking
for you. Just.Just so you could run back to him...You fucking cunt."
Shaking her head slightly clearing the voice from her head, "Logan"
Logan set down a medium-sized box he was carrying, dusting off his hands he
asked, "How've ya been?"
"Oh, I have been....all right..and you?"
He shrugged, "Been better"
Ororo nodded, "Well, I was just looking for some..sheets for my room."
"You're moving back here? Huh." He bit his lip, "Sure that's a good idea?"
Ororo tensed, she didn't want any confrontation, "Hey, Calm down Ororo" She
had forgotten he could sense if she was nervous. "I'm not gonna start
anything."
"I know Logan.I should get back to my room." Ororo began to turn back to
the way she had come.
"Ororo, If you want, I can get you some blankets. There might be some
sheets and pillowcases too"
She turned back to face him, "Oh, that would be.very helpful."
He walked a little past her, brushing past her, And he went over to a small
closet door, "Here you go" he opened it.
"Thank You " she maneuvered around him.
"How have you been Ororo?" he asked her again, his breath touching the
back of her neck, as he stood over her.
"I Told you, I have been-"
"I don't mean recently, I mean.how have you been these past few years?
Does..does Victor treat you good?" Lifting his hand up, resisted the urge
to place his hand on her arm, and ran it through his hair.
Tears began to push at Ororo's eyes, "Oh..Victor always treated me
good..before he..died." Biting her lip, Ororo voice was shaky, but she
continued. "Him, Magneto, Mystique, and Toad..they all died..in the
blast." Blinking back her tears, she turned around to face him.
Logan, lowered his eyes for a part of him was glad and he hated himself for
it, "Oh, I'm sorry 'Ro..That must really." he was at a loss for words.
But she understood, "Oh, it does.but I will make it through.for my daughter
I have to.How about you Logan?.How have you been these past few
years?.Anyone special in your life?"
Logan smirked, "No, seen few woman these past few years, been to busy"
*And hurt* he added silently.
Ororo smiled, reaching up, she placed her hand on his upper arm. "I'm sure
you will find someone, after all.I did."
Logan placed his hand over hers, "Thanks 'Ro"
"Now, I must get going" she dropped her hand, his followed, and he snatched
hers up. There was silence, "Logan"
Logan held Ororo's hand, and before he dropped it "I'm glad you've been
happy. You deserve it." He went over and grabbed the box. Ororo watched
after him, as he walked down the hall.
**11/2 hours Later**
Logan watched Ororo as her and her daughter played with Jean and Scott's 3
yr old. And he began to remember after Ororo had left.
**FB**
As soon as she left, Logan ran up to Ororo's room, and began to smash
everything he could get his hands on, "You fucking Bitch!" he yelled as he
threw things to the floor. After all of her things had been cleared off of
the furniture, he began to tear things up in her drawers.
Outside of Ororo's room, Scott stopped Jean from going to prevent Logan
from causing further damage, "Scott, he's tearing up all of her things?
Don'-"
"Why should we stop him? It's not like she's going to come back and
reclaim anything she left here." Suddenly, the crashing and moving
stopped.
Logan had found a diary of Ororo's, sitting down on her now stripped bed,
her began to read it, It must have been fairly new when she had had it.
the book was only half filled with her flawless handwriting, he started to
read..
*
Diary,
It has been almost five months since Logan left. I know Jean and Marie
think he is gone for good. But I believe he will be back.after all he has
Jean and Marie here waiting for him. I know Scott and I act as if we are
not worried, but I can tell Scott is worried.that or he wants his bike
back! I guess I act that way..because I miss him, a lot.I do not know
why..we hardly exchanged a few sentences.but he has some sort of..i do not
know how to describe it.
*
Logan flipped a head a few pages to where he thought it would say something
about his return. And was surprised to find the almost perfect
handwriting, now scrawled over the paper, the pen made indentations that
almost cut through the paper..he wondered what had made her so upset..
*
Well, Logan is back.And who is the first to greet him?.well.the person who
gave the whole, "We thought you would never return" speech? JEAN! Jean Jean
Jean JEAN!!...I do not know why she upsets me so much.maybe.maybe it is
because I know what a wonderful man Scott is for her, but she had to ruin
that relationship.and for what? A relationship with a man who has not been
here for half of a year, I hope Scott is taking Logan's return well..he
deserves so much more than what Jean gives him.
*
**EFB**
Logan had read her dairy all the way through that night, and later on, when
he went back up there to clean what he had done, he found older diaries,
some that were maybe 10-11 yrs old. The first one was more of a practice,
for her to learn English better, it seemed over time, the idea of writing a
Diary just stuck with Ororo. During the next few days, he went through all
of them, learning about her failed romance with a man named Forge, and her
initial attraction to him. her many failed attempts at trying to get Jean
to listen to her. After it was all over, Logan couldn't help but feel as
if, has he just told her, that it was him who had searched for her, after
the others had given up. He could have been.much more to her.
"Logan?", a knock came at his door.
"Yeah Jean?" he said, placing one of the diaries back into a medium-sized
box, and kicking that under his bed. "Come in."
Jean walked in, "How are you?" she closed the door, and went and sat on his
bed.
"I'm Good, you?"
"Logan, I don't know if you remember, but I am a telepath, I can-"
"Leave me alone Jean, I don't feel like talking shit with you all right?"
he turned back to the window.
"Why are you so upset Logan? Charles and I are very worried-"
He bit his lip, "You want to know why I am so upset?" he stood up and
walked towards her "Why I am so fucking Pissed?!" Jean leaned back, but he
continued, "Why The Fuck do you think I'm "Upset"?" he yelled at her.
"Logan, Calm down-" She tried to stand up, and leave but Logan pushed her
back on the bed.
"I'm Not going to fucking calm down! You are going to sit there, and shut
your fucking mouth and listen to me! I'm Pissed because I didn't stop
looking for her once while she was missing, even though you and the other X-
men, her so called "friends" stopped! I'm "Upset", because I wasted my
time on you, you a selfish cold hearted bitch, when a Fucking Goddess was
right before me! I could be happy with her right now, That could be my
fucking kid! But No, it's Fucking Victor Creed's! I never thought I would
envy a fucking monster like him, But God! All he had to do was tell her
she was pretty and look at her the way, I looked at you, and she was happy,
all she ever wanted to be was wanted! I could have given her that, I could
have loved her, But No! I had to have the gorgeous red-head with the
emerald eyes!" He glared at Jean, not caring that she was crying, "Don't
waste your tears on me Jean! She left because of all of us, but you were
the one, who made her feel like shit, you were the one, that ignored her,
you were the one, who was so blissfully happy with Scott, and yet you had
to have me too. What in the hell was I thinking when I was with you? "
"Logan"
Logan turned around to see Xavier sitting in the doorway, "WHAT?!" he
yelled at him.
"Calm down, you have no right to treat Jean that way, we all made mistakes
and we all had or part in Ororo leaving. Jean-"
"I do not need this shit! I know what happened, and I know how she felt, I
know everything! So don't sit there and tell me what not to say!"
Some of the students had gathered in he hall, Logan took a quick look
outside and saw Ororo was no longer there, "I have to go" He grabbed his
Jacket, "I have to get out of here before I kill someone"
He walked past Xavier, and said, "You know it too, Chuck" and he made his
way to the Garage.
