X3 Alternate Ending

Discaimer: Not mine. Never will be. I wish. See, if X-Men were mine, Scott and Jean would have been over in the first movie and Jean and Logan would have had a suburban house with a white picket fence and 3 kids by the third. Oh yeah, and Jean would easily control the Pheonix because of her and Logan's undying love. But, as I said, I don;t own them. If you can't tell.

Author's Note: This is my first X-Men fic so be gentle, no flames. I wrote it simply because I didn't like the ending of X3. Because of course, in a perfect world, Jean and Logan would always be together.

"Save me!" a pleading voice sounded in Logan's ears. It was Jean Grey's voice. The real Jean Grey, not the Pheonix. So, he did. He plunged three sharp objects into her abdomen. But, they weren't the three claws he used so often, they were three injection needles. The three needles that held in them "the cure."

She fell into him after he had fully injected the drug. He looked down at her face, the palness gone, along with the sickening look of her veins popping out. She smiled up at him, "Thank you Logan." He registered that she was now fully Jean Grey, the woman he loved and always would.

Three Weeks Later

Logan had sat at Jean's bedside for the last three weeks, only leaving for neccessities. He would shower for 10 minutes at the most and then head straight back to Jean's room. He would bring a few days worth of oufits to her room and change in the bathroom when needed.He even slept in the room, he kicked back the recliner. If he got hungry, he would head to the kitchen and grab his food bringing back up to the room as quickly as he could. He ate only when neccasary.

This was one of the times. He hadn't eaten for over 18 hours, so he brought an extra large bowl of soup up to the room to eat while he watched Jean sleep. He kept a cooler in the room filled with ice and pop so that he wouldn't have to leave when he got hungry. The soup he was eating was one he had grown fond of. It was a favorite of the woman he was watching.

"Hey, that smells good," Jean said hoarsely. Logan jumped, thanking the stars that there was a bedside table beside the recliner that he had sat his bowl of hot soup on. He turned his head and smiled at her.

"Hey, Red!" Logan said smiling. The smile reached his eyes.

"Hey ya, back," she replied smiling a smile that gave his own a run for its money. "Can I have some?" she asked licking her parched lips. "I'm really hungry. These IV's may keep you alive, but that's all they do," she said giggling as much as she could. It was more than she had done in the last two 1/2 years.

He smiled, shaking his head at her comments, "Sure, here," he lead his spoon full of chicken, noodles, and soup toward her mouth. He spoon fed her the rest of the food, taking bites of his own occasionally.

"Oh, that was good," she said after they had finished. He bent over the cooler pulling out a Dr Pepper for her. He popped it open, and she drank it down in large gulps.

Suddenly, she got a strange look on her face,"Logan, I thought you gave me the cure. Why can I still hear thoughts?"
