Hold on

By Magdalena

Summary: Takes place after The Uncanny X-Men #423. Wolverine is watching over Jubilee.

Notes: Lyrics from Sarah McLachlan "Hold on". (This is my first Jubilee/Wolverine fic hope it not that bad...)

Today I almost lost you
Today God almost took you way from me.
Crucified.

Hold on
Hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell.

Now I understand how it was for you to find me like that.
Hanging from a cross (or in my case an X) and that's a feeling I never want to feel again.
I never want to feel so helpless again.
How come that how much I try to protect you, to shield you from the fucked up things in the world. They still get to you?

what is it in me that refuses to believe
this isn't easier than the real thing.

I wish I could go back in time to make it all right
But I don't have that kind of power
Still I can watch over you as you lie here.

My love
you know that you're my best friend.
You know that I'd do anything for you
and my love
let nothing come between us
my love for you is strong and true.

I can help you keep the nightmares away.
I can hold you when you need to cry over the unfairness of the world.
But I can't promise you that this is the last time anyone will ever try to harm you..

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile
across your face.

I can't promise you that my sweet Jubilee
All I can do is be here for you.
And that ´darling, that can you count on.
Because I can't face the world without you

Hold on
hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell.
