Title: Hide and Seek

Rating: G or K

Summery: For the past twenty minutes Marie has been playing hide and seek with the Wolverine. He shakes his head in amusement. He, the great, big, bad, cigar smoking Wolverine, was playing hide and seek with a twenty year old.

He fights the smile that wants to break out across his face, fights the laugh that wants to come through and ruin the game that they have going.

For the past twenty minutes Marie has been playing hide and seek with the Wolverine. He shakes his head in amusement. He, the great, big, bad, cigar smoking Wolverine, was playing hide and seek with a twenty year old.

Although, people in the mansion always seemed to make an exception to his behavior toward the little runaway.

But it was no ordinary game of hide and seek, it was a rather stationary game, truth be told. He was in the garage working on his bike and she was in the door entranceway and every few seconds she would turn around and peek around the corner and when she would see him turn in her direction, she could duck back behind the corner. Occasionally she would put her whole body in the doorway.

And if anybody were to ask, he would not tell him or her that he was having fun. But if Marie asked, he'd never be able to lie to her.

So after a few minutes when he realized that she was no longer behind the door his smile turned into a frown

and he grabbed his rag to wipe his hands and he was half way to the door when he stopped short when Marie appeared.

This time she was holding two pizza boxes (one large meat lovers and a medium extra cheese and ham) and one glass coke bottle and one beer bottle.

She tilted her head and looked up at him through her lashes and her lips pulled up into a smirk.

"Thought you might be hungry."

He grabbed the boxes and drinks and held them while she jumped up onto the worktable and she held them as he too did the same.

For the next twenty minutes they ate lunch in a comfortable silence, staring at the almost completely restored classic Harley.
