So after a super long hiatus, I finally managed to crank out a brand spankin' new story. Maybe this will mean I'll be able to finish all my old ones. No guarantees. And it's a new genre for me. Been on a X-Men movie kick lately. More like a Hugh Jackman as Wolverine kick lately. Yum. Can't wait for the new movie this summer. On that note, this story takes place after the events of the upcoming movie 'The Wolverine'. And since I'm not a big Hollywood hotshot or Mrs. Hugh Jackman (hope she knows how lucky she is), I based most of the back story from the comic book canon I researched off of Marvel. But the RoLo is my imagination. I kinda always loved this pairing since the old 1990's X Men cartoon and that AU episode 'One Man's Worth' where they have Wolverine and Storm married in a post-Apocalyptic world.

As for this story, like I said before it's basically 'Honey I shrunk the kids' but I thought it could be unique to all the other stories I've seen on here. So sit back, relax and enjoy the full summary and the story. Peace out!

Flames and kisses,

Professor, She Shrunk the Wolverine!

Since his return from Japan, Logan and Storm have been at each others throats. And it's driving everyone in the mansion crazy. Not even finding an abandoned mutant two year old girl doesn't tame their tempers. But when that little girl uses her power to shrink Logan and Storm to a quarter of an inch tall, they have to work together to get someone to realize what happened to them.

It all began when Logan returned after eight long years. He had a full beard and his hair had grown long thick and long. And his eyes were sadder and more tortured than ever. He doubted that there was a place for him after all this time. But the Professor had a way of surprising him. His room had been left for him, even cleaned. Hank McCoy, recently retired from politics, greeted him with a handshake. Rouge had blossomed into a beautiful young woman and become a teacher. And since the Cure didn't last, she had to be careful when they hugged not to touch him. That didn't stop Remy LeBeau, a Cajun from New Orleans and a recent arrival from flirting with Rouge every chance he got. Logan swore he knew him from somewhere, but he couldn't place him.

But it was only Storm who greeted him coldly. She had a pasted a smile of welcome on her face. But it didn't reach her eyes. Which was odd behavior for her since she was known from her warmth and her motherly demeanor. Even now the students would run to her still with every problem they had.

But with Logan?

"Who left only a sip of milk in the refrigerator?" Storm asked holding up the mostly empty jug and glaring at the freshly shaven Wolverine. He was munching on his fifth bowl of cereal. He only gave her a dry look before taking the milk out of her hand and pouring it in his bowl.

"You did that on purpose." Storm said, hands on hips.

"What you gonna do about it?" Logan barked.

"You're going out to get the groceries." Storm said.

"Like hell." he said.

"Don't you use that tone with me." Storm warned him.

"You can't tell me what to do." Logan said.

"You're just as bad as a teenager you know that?" Storm said.

"You gonna put me in detention Teach?" Logan asked.

"No but wanna learn how well adamantimum conducts electricity?" Storm warned him.

The next few months were fairly much of the same. They would pick a fight over everything. Sometimes Logan would seek her out just to pick a fight. Which made a certain Southern Belle begin to wonder.

"Remy don't you think it's odd how they fight all the time? Only to end up spending so much time with each other?" Rouge said to the Cajun as they arranged flowers on Jean and Scott Summers gravestones.

"Ah Cher don't try to read something into nothing. Stormy just don't like the Wolverine no more." Remy said standing over her.

"But why? I mean that's not like Storm. Even her divorce to T'Calla ended amicably. What is it about Logan that got her all riled up? I mean it's either something she's holding back, or maybe...just maybe all that fighting is really sexual frustration." Rouge said standing up and brushing off the dirt from her jeans.

"Cher, leave it be. It don't concern you." Remy told her.

"I just want them both to be happy. And Logan won't even tell me what the heck happened to him in Japan. And he seems so sad and..." Rouge began to ramble. Remy interrupted by giving her a quick kiss. Not long enough to cause him harm, just a moment of discomfort and joy. He still had to be careful though. While not at deadly as they once were, Rouge's powers had developed so that when she took people's energy and powers, she also gained super strength. And for some reason she could fly as well.

"Cher, leave it be. Now why don't you and I go into town and bring the red paint mm?" he asked with a charming smile. She smiled and leaned close to whisper against his lips,

"Not a chance Sugar."

Remy was left to stare after her as she turned on her heel and sashayed into the mansion. A smile cracked on his amused face. Then he looked up noting it was starting to rain, with thunder and lightning cracking the sky.

"Uh oh, Stormy at it again." Remy sighed.

"Logan! Where are you going now?" Storm demanded as she followed the larger man down the stairs to the front door.

"To get some air." Logan said shrugging on his leather jacket.

"We have air in the mansion." Storm said.

"I like beer with my air." Logan said.

"Oh when will you be back? Another eight years?" Storm asked.

"Is that why you've been on my case since I got back?" Logan asked.

"I'm on your case because you're a selfish pain in the ass." Storm said.

"Yeah and you're a uptight, pushy..." Logan began yanking open the front door. He stopped short seeing a crying little girl tucked in a car seat.

"Baby?" he asked raising a brow as Storm gasped.
