No copyright infringement intended. I do not own any of the familiar characters; the only character that I own in this chapter is Olivia. This story is a spinoff story from Accidental Beginnings it revolves around Logan and his family. It starts out a bit slow, but the pace will soon be picked up. Also, thank you Antay for letting me write a spinoff^_^ My avatar is actually a picture I drew of what I picture Olivia to look like.

Prologue

"What about day care?" Mariko questioned, as she was holding back tears. She wanted to start working again, but Logan wasn't having it. Not that he was possessive or anything, he just wanted to keep his family safe.

"Babe, ya know of all people how I don't like anyone we don't know watchin' our kids." He stepped closer to her, opening his muscular arms for an embrace. One that she didn't return. "I jus don't want anythin ta happen ta our kids, or you." He continued, wanting to make her feel better. "If I lose any of ya, I'd kill somebody, I know it."

"What about a babysitter? Someone Jubilee's age?" She asked in a tired tone. She couldn't stand being out of work for so long. She didn't want to be one of those stay home moms. As much a she loves her children, she still wants to return to her old job as a registered nurse.

"I don't know," Logan shook his head as he continued. "Can ya really trust someone Jub's age to be responsible?"

"Jubilee is a perfect example of a responsible teenager." She pleaded.

Logan sighed, feeling defeated. He didn't like upsetting his wife. "Okay, if we can find a girl responsible enough to watch both Jake, Amiko, and occasionally rose, then yes."

Mariko's eyes filled up with happiness as she listened to her husband's answer. "Arigato." She responded before finally accepting his embrace.


Chapter One: The big, old, house in the middle of the block

"So how is it going finding a babysitter?" Ororo asked Mariko before taking another sip of her green tea.

Mariko sighed before answering. "Not good," She continued, "It seems that finding someone to watch my children for five and occasionally six days a week is more difficult than it appeared to be." She has been searching for a reliable babysitter for more than a month. It seems as if every time she thought that she'd found a great one, they either didn't sit well with her husband, or didn't live up to her own expectations.

"Don't worry, Mariko, I'm sure you will find one sooner or later." Ororo assured her, placing her hand on Mariko's hand. "Good things come to those who wait." She stated before she look down at her growing belly.

"You are right, I just miss work, it was a part of me." She stated as she placed her free hand on Ororo's stomach. "Does he kick much?" She asked as if she knew the sex of the unborn child.

"Yes, a lot," Ororo began, "How to do know if my child is a boy?" She asked with a curious look on her face.

"I don't, but if you do have a son, it would give Logan and I one less thing to worry about once Amiko reaches her teenage years." She said with a laugh.

"Oh, of course," Ororo laughed, "But I'm sure Etienne wouldn't like for his younger brother to date the daughter of his future girlfriend's older brother."

"I forgot all about Etienne's big crush on Rose." She continued, "Which is hard to believe because every time he comes over, he asks Logan if Rose is around." The two women's laughs came to a halt when they heard Mariko's phone ring.

"Babe, it's me, pick up. Babe, it's me, pick up."

"Hello, honey. How is your day going." Ororo listened quietly as Mariko spoke to her husband. "That's good, did you eat lunch yet….Good…No not yet…I know…Okay, I'll call her…I love you too…bye."

"Yeah, I just finished,how're ya feelin darlin?...Find any good sitter yet?...Babe, don't worry, we'll find one…Why don't ya ask Jubilee if she knows anyone who could be a long term sitter…Okay, I love you, Mariko…Bye." Logan huffed as he ended his conversation with his wife. He hated for Mariko to be upset. All he wanted to do was make her happy, but it seems as if he is doing the opposite.


"Wifey mad?" Luke joked, as he sat across from Logan. Luke was a professional fighter in New Orleans, but he also worked in construction, much like Logan.

"Yeah, she wants ta work again, but we can't find a good babysitter for my kids."

"Daycare not an option?" Luke questioned.

Logan shook his head. "Nope, don't trust anybody."

"Yea, I feel you. I'm glad Jess decided to work from home." Luke continued. "I wouldn't be able to handle my rage if someone hurt my lil angel."

"Exactly, there's too many fucked up people in this world." Logan slouched in his seat as he thought about all of the messed up things in this world.

"Yeah, you know Dani said her first word last night." Luke interrupted, trying to lighten the mood.

"Really, what'd she say?"

"Nope."

"Nope?"

"Yup, I asked her if she loved me, and she said 'nope'." Luke said before laughing.

"Wow, my little girl's first word was 'stink.'" Logan laughed.

"Really, what she poop her pants or somethin?" Luke asked jokingly.

"No, I tried to give her a kiss and she turned her head and said 'stink.'" The two men laughed hardy laughs as they spoke about their children.

"I feel bad for you, bro." Luke joked. "You remember your son's first word?"

"Bub, his first word was bub. I don't even think that counts as a word."

"Sure it does," Luke stated, sure of himself. "If 'awesome' is a word, then so is 'bub'."


"I can't wait until Spring break," Jubilee stated, waiting for her best friend to reply.

"I know, my family's taking a trip to California." Laura stated as she closed her locker.

"Really, that sounds nice," Jubilee continued, "My dad's taking my mom and I to China. He said that it'll give me a chance to get in touch with my Chinese heritage."

"That's amazing—" Laura's reply was interrupted by Jubilee's ringing phone.

"Hey, auntie!" Jubilee stated nonchalantly as if it was okay to answer phones during school hours. Jubilee's family has been really close to the Howlett's since they first moved to New Orleans when she was thirteen. They considered each other to be family; therefore she referred to them as her aunt and uncle.

"Jubilee, if you get caught with that—" Laura's words were cut off by Jubilee's pointer finger to her lips.

"Yes, I'm fine…okay, ask away…Um, I'm not sure, but I'll ask around…It's no problem…Okay, talk to you later, auntie….Love you too, bye."

"What did she want?" Laura questioned, wanting to know what was so important that she had to call Jubilee during school.

"A babysitter," Jubilee continued, "Know anyone?"

"Can't you just babysit for her?"

"Yeah, but she needs a long term babysitter, and well…hello, school, mall, boys…need I continue?"

Laura rolled her eyes at Jubilee's response. "What about Olivia?"

"No way! Not after what she did to me!" Jubilee yelled.

"What happened wasn't her fault, and you know that."

"Yes it was!" Jubilee protested, sure of herself.

"How, because she's cute?" She continued, "How was she supposed to know that you had a thing for Bobby?"

"I don't know, but still she shouldn't have gone out with him."

"She doesn't like Bobby; she just thought that he wanted to hang out. You know, like we all used to?"

"Whatever."

"Are you really going to be like this?" Laura asked, annoyed at her friend's stubbornness.

"Yes."

"You know she's in that cyber school thing, now, right?" Laura continued, "She has nothing but time on her hands, she'd be the perfect sitter."

"I don't know."

"If you don't tell your aunt, I will."

"Okay, okay, Sheesh, I'll call her." Jubilee continued, "After school, now let's go, if I'm late again Mr. Xavier is going to call my parents."


Jubilee sighed as she laid on her daybed, staring at her phone. She knew that she had to help her aunt, but she didn't want to speak to Olivia. She still felt betrayed by someone who she used to call friend. She, Laura, and Olivia, were like three peas in a pod. They were the first people to befriend her when she started to attend a new school. They introduced her to all of their friends, and invited her into their circle. Now she felt like the circle was beginning to split into two, and it was her fault. She took a deep breath and skimmed down to the O's. She sucked up her pride and hit the call button.

"Hey Olivia, it's me, Jubs." Jubilee continued, "I'm good, look I'm not going to beat around the bush, okay?...I'm only calling you because my aunt and uncle need a long term babysitter, and Laura told me that you're in cyber school now…Do you think that you'd be able to come to their house later?...Good we can meet there at five, that's when my uncle gets off of work. Do you remember where they live? Okay, see you there." Jubilee ended the conversation before Olivia could reply. She felt a little guilty, but she made herself believe that Olivia deserved it.

"Jubilation Lee!" Her mother called to her in an irritated tone.

Jubilee hopped out of bed, and ran to her door. "Yes mother?" She answered as she opened the door, only to find out that her mother seemed very upset.

"Could you explain this?" Her mother asked, holding up Jubilee's C- grade on her history exam.

"Um…I uh…didn't do well?" Jubilee stated as if she was asking a question.

"Jubilee, when are you going to be more serious about your grades?" The upset woman continued, "You need to start taking school more seriously."

"I know, mom, I just…I took that test a while ago, when I was upset." She added, "I know that I can do better." Jubilee insisted.

"I know, sweetheart." Her mother replied, remembering jubilee's fight with Olivia. "Just try to focus a little more, okay?"

"Yes. Is it okay if I go to Uncle Logan's for a while?"

"yes, but be back by seven."

"Thanks mom!" Jubilee said happily before placing a kiss on her mom's cheek and running downstairs to put on her blades. She wanted to get out of the house quickly before her mom realize that she just let Jubilee get away with a C-.


Olivia sighed after her phone call with Jubilee ended abruptly. She could tell that Jubilee was clearly still upset about what happened between her and Bobby. "It wasn't my fault." She thought to herself as she placed her phone down onto the bed that she was sitting on. She glanced over at the small digital clock that was sitting on the old, beat up nightstand. "3:45" She had an hour and fifteen minutes to get to Logan's house, and if she was going to get there on time she had to leave immediately.

Olivia stood up and gave herself a once over. She was wearing a small tank top that showed her midriff and a pair of blue denim shorts. "They'll take one look at me and immediately shut the door on my face." She wanted to change into something less revealing, but her clothes were still hanging wet in the bathroom. The nervous girl then decided to just throw a cardigan over her and head out the door. When she got outside of the motel, she noticed a group of men watching her from the motel room across from the parking lot. She knew what they were thinking so she tied her cardigan closed and made her way to her parked bicycle that she had attached to a nearby light post. Not the best place to put a bike, anyone tall enough could just lift the bike up and steal it, but she had no other choice.

"Mm Mm Mm!" One of the men stated loudly as she bent down to unchain the bike. She ignored it; by now she had been used to this kind of thing happening to her. She learned that if you say something, it'll only encourage them. After she got her bike loose, she got on and urgently peddled away. Olivia had to peddle fast if she wanted to get to the Logan's home in time. She'd only been there twice, but she remembered where it was.

"The big, old house in the middle of the block." She thought to herself. "Gosh I wish that I lived in a neighborhood like that. Maybe I can find a cheap motel to stay at down there." She continued, "Yeah right, a neighborhood like that is impossible for me to afford." She'd hoped that they would pay her generously so that she could move out of her current neighborhood, but she didn't let the thought stay for too long. Getting her hopes up was one thing that she learned not to do.

I know it's not the best first chapter, but it's a start^_^
