A/N: Here's Chapter 4, I know, long time since I updated, but I will have more chapters up once school is out.
Chapter 3:
1 Minute More, 60 More Bruises to My Heart
As Jimmy raced through the hallway, he noticed all the students were headed there too, and those who weren't were standing around with puzzled expressions across their faces. Once he saw Bobby, he stopped to catch his breath and walked towards him where he was standing in front of a room with Kitty and Peter behind him. Jimmy realized none of them knew anything yet, so he held off the obvious questions and waited patiently with them.
Bobby's expression never changed, he looked worried, serious and anxious at the same time, not even his old enemy, Pyro would be able to take him off his trance. All he wanted was his girlfriend, and he was willing to stand there as long as he lived.
After hours of waiting, most of the students had left, but Kitty, Peter and Jimmy remained. They noticed Bobby started to seem tired, so they pulled up a chair, releasing him from his trance. "Are you Okay?" Peter asked.
Bobby looked up at him, "I'm fine; you guys should go get some rest."
"But we need to know what happened." replied Peter.
"Yeah, we're going to stay here until we find out what happened," added Kitty, stubbornly.
"Are you sure?" asked Bobby.
"Of course," declared Kitty, Peter and Jimmy in unison.
"Okay, fine..." he said, sounding defeated.
They waited, and waited, a minute was am eternity to Bobby, but Dr. McCoy finally appeared before them midnight.
As he saw the blue figure come out, Bobby immediately stood, knocking his chair over. Dr. McCoy took off his glasses, looked at them, and thought. Bobby was desperate to know, "How is she, what's wrong?" he asked. McCoy smiled at him and replied, "She had a negative reaction to the cure..."
Bobby studied his expression, "Then why are you smiling?"
"I think I found a way to get her powers back, and allow her to control them."
"Okay, so how is she?" Bobby didn't care; he just wanted to know she was out of danger.
"Did you hear a word I said?"
"Please, just tell me!" he demanded.
Peter, Kitty and Jimmy stood behind him quietly and waited on McCoy. "She's fine, don't worry, but as soon as she wakes up, I have to talk to her. You are welcome to see her if you like but make sure you don't startle her."
Bobby listened intently and felt relieved, "Thank you, Dr. McCoy, can I see her, now?"
"Sure."
Thinking back, Bobby realized what he McCoy had said before, "Wait, you can bring her powers back, and help her control them?"
"I believe so."
Bobby finally smiled, "I can't wait to see her."
Peter, Kitty and Jimmy also felt relieved but tired. They walked toward Bobby. "Okay, now we know she's okay, so we'll leave you alone with her... that is... until tomorrow, okay?" negotiated Kitty.
"Okay, goodnight everyone," Bobby agreed, "thanks for being here, see you all tomorrow."
Hank smiled at them and motioned Bobby inside.
Inside the room, there was a bed, and the room was full of equipment, Bobby had no idea what any of those objects did; but he was glad they were there, it reassured him of Marie's safety. He headed towards the bed where Marie lied unconscious. He pulled a chair next to her and sat. He looked at her and stroked her hair with his left hand. His right hand slowly made its way to her hand and he held it closely. He stayed all night, he wanted to stay awake, but his eyes wouldn't let him. They demanded closure, and so he fell asleep, with his hand hers and his head resting next to her, dreaming of his precious Marie.
A/N: Thoughts please? Hope I didn't ruin it for you, but I have tons of ideas for the next chapters. The next chapter will be a little more exciting... I hope.
