Don't own a single thing…*sigh*
"Spill."
I sighed. I should have known Jubilee would pounce as soon as possible. I looked up at her from over my menu. "Can I figure out what I want to eat first?"
She reached across the table and stole my menu from my hand. "We're at IHOP, you're getting pancakes."
Our waitress walked over. She looked like she had been at this job way too long and didn't care if people realized she didn't want to be here. She noisily chewed her gum. "What'd ya want?"
I wondered if you could catch whatever she had, well I didn't know what she had, but she had to have something. "Um could I get orange juice and strawberry pancakes?"
Kitty looked up at her. "The same for me please," she asked quietly.
The lady made a noise back in the throat and scribbled on her notepad.
Jubilee rolled her eyes at us. "Could I have a coffee, cinnamon waffle with blueberry syrup, and…two scrambled eggs?" She handed the waitress our menus. "Thanks."
The lady, Suzie, made her way back to the kitchens. I couldn't help but watch like people that watch a train wreck. She managed to nearly knock down a waiter and at least three customers. I shook my head. The way people were these days. I felt a hand close around my wrist.
"Focus, Roguey, focus. I need details. I can't believe you actually got Wolvie into your bed. Untouchable, cold hearted, growly Wolverine. Does he growl in bed?" She wiggled her eyebrows at me.
"Jeez Jubilee have you heard of tact?" Kitty looked at Jubes with wide brown eyes, shock clearly written in every line of her face.
"Um." Oh how in the world did I get myself into this? "Well he's not exactly untouchable."
"Obviously," Jubilee said with a smirk as she tossed a strand of black hair of her shoulder as she leaned towards me.
Even Kitty, who was trying to hold up her façade of looking grossed out, was listening closely to my words.
"It wasn't like I planned it or anything. It just kind of, well happened." I shrugged trying to wriggle myself on to steadier ground.
"When did this happen?" Jubes by this time was leaning half way across the table trying to hear me.
"Last time he came back. At the lake cottage."
Jubilee squealed and bounced up and down. "Oh. My. God. How romantic! Did he come running towards you and sweep you into his arms and kiss you until you couldn't see straight?"
Kitty and I both froze in our attempts to calm her down. Kitty looked liked she wanted to phase through the floor. My mouth probably looked like a fish out of water. "I uh…what the…um well…how….WHAT! No, no, no, no, no. Have you been reading those romance novels again?"
She smiled and fluttered her eyelashes. "Busted. So did he?"
"Does Logan look like he would do that?"
She paused for a moment to think. "I think he would do the last part. Are you going to give us measurements?" She winked saucily.
The water I had just swallowed came rushing out of my mouth half way across the table.
"JUBILEE." Kitty's embarrassed wail was heard in the entire restaurant, turning several heads our way.
Our waitress took that moment to bring us our drinks and meal. Almost dumping Kitty's pancakes into her lap and my drink down my shirt. "Um thanks." She was gone again before I could finish.
"No details ok? I'll give a brief overview if you don't complain." Jubes pouted, but nodded her assent. Kitty looked grateful. "He came to say hi after he got back. I was on the dock. We mostly just sat there without talking for about an hour or two. He decided we needed to go back in."
Kitty broke in, "Did you tell him you were staying in the cottage?"
I took a bite of my pancakes before answering; savoring the fact I had both Kitty's and Jubilee's full attention. They were barely even eating their food. "Yes, I told him. Being Logan he refused to let me go by myself, even though it wasn't far away."
"What happened next?"
I shot Jubes a glare. "I would tell you if you guys didn't keep interrupting. "They both shoveled a big bite of their food into their mouths. I almost laughed at the sight of them looking liking hamsters with the food filling up their cheeks. "Anyways, I went to grab my shoes and fell into the water."
They both gasped and almost choked on their food.
"To cut to the chase, I was wearing a white t-shirt. And…well…you can guess what happened next."
Kitty's eyes went wide as saucers. "On the dock…" Her voice trailed off into a whisper.
"NO. We went to the cottage. Goodness."
Jubilee rubbed her hands together. "Won't everyone love this tale?"
I shot over the table and grabbed her. "Don't even think about it."
She sighed but I could tell she wouldn't. We ate in silence for the rest of the meal. We paid and left back to the mansion. As we pulled up Jubilee leaned over and whispered in my ear, "Did he…?"
I blushed but nodded. Both Kitty and Jubes looked impressed. As we got out of the car Logan stalked over. Kitty almost phased to China and Jubilee giggled and looked him slowly up and down. I think I can still feel the blood in my face after that blush.
He grabbed my arm and pulled me towards the mansion. "I don't even want to know."
I figured that was a good thing. I really didn't want to tell him. "Logan, could you slow down?" He did but just barely. My stomach rolled. I yanked my hand from his and ran towards a bathroom covering my mouth. Great, just wonderful, now morning sickness on top of everything else. I pulled the door shut not listening to Logan's worried calls. This, I wasn't going to share with him.
Sorry about the long wait in between updates. I just started school this week. The good thing is now I can get on a regular schedule and start updating regularly. Thanks for putting up with me!
