Continuing with scott's P.O.V…..
My jaws fell and my eyebrows shot up in surprise. I feel like I am trapped in a dream, a beautiful dream that I simply refuse to wake up from. My eyes follow and drink in each and every detail of the wonder that unfolded in front of me and I feel like a forlorn traveller trapped in a desert who suddenly sees an oasis and realises that its not a mirage.
There she was standing before me perfectly fine and pristine. In short I was lost for words. Just a few days ago all my hopes were at the brink of vanishing. All hopes of seeing her beautiful face framed perfectly by her cascading red hair, of gazing deep into her emerald orbs and her radiant smile that could readily lift that dull, gloomy and monotonous aspect of your life any day.
"am I dreaming? Is this for real? Somebody pinch me or push me down a cliff?", I exclaim while her laughter brings life to my eyes. Very lovingly she pinches me and makes me realise that its not a dream and says" I couldn't possibly push you down a cliff because we are engaged ". and she shows me the ring around her finger.
"I cant possibly express how sorry i…", jean says but I shut her up with my mouth. I don't let her continue with what she says and kiss her like there is no tomorrow. Despite the dehydration that was evident in her lips, they were still warm, just the way I remember. She also responds to the kiss. I pull herself close to me by pulling her by the waist and she keeps her hands on my chest. Her hands travel up my chest and neck and get entangled with my hair. Suddenly she pulls away for air but stays close to my face and examines it. I still have a hold on her waist and she has her hands around my neck. Not having a clue about what she was doing I hold a puzzled look while she asks me " you haven't been getting much sleep, have you?"
I don't know how she does it and she still never ceases to amaze me. She had her gaze deep into my glasses and probably would have noticed dark circles around my eyes or something.
" ya well… you see.." I smile sheepishly at her while she keeps a finger over my lips and makes me shut up.
"I know. I know everything about you. You don't need to hide anything from me scott. And I don't need to use my telepathy to figure it out. You were worried about me but that doesn't mean that you can neglect yourself. I mean look at you, you look like a zombie and you haven't been eating properly too. I cant believe it. You can be such a …", I turn her around by her shoulder and quickly hug her tightly and ask her" I can be such a what?" to which she replies " a baby!"
Both of us laugh together for a while when beast comes in for her regular check up. He becomes astonished by seeing jean very much wide and awake and quickly drops everything down. Hearing the crashing sound everyone rushes up to the infirmary including the professor.
All of them were beyond happy, they were madly happy that jean was ok and has woken up from her coma. It seems as though her mind sort of went into a hibernation mode after that traumatising experience. Even the professor wasn't able to establish contact with her through his telepathy. He also had a theory that now that her powers have evolved his powers weren't sufficient enough to read what was going on inside her head. Her mind had literally come across a whole new renovation. The professor said," now that she is awake I cant guarantee that her powers cant cause trouble again. My blocks will be of no use from now on. We have to face the facts that jean's powers have evolved and that she now needs to equip herself with enough physical and mental strength by training with me for a better control of her powers. It will be tiresome and hard beyond your imagination. But I am afraid it's the only way"
"are you up for it jean?". She immediately agrees to him without any hesitation.
Jean had to travel to London with the professor to meet up with someone known as emma frost. The professor told us that she was a trusted friend of many years and that she was also a telepath although not as strong as jean or him. He said if anyone could give personal training to jean regarding her powers it was emma. I missed her terribly. But kept in constant touch with her. I once tried to video call her and when I got her line I noticed that she was dead exhausted saying that she didn't have energy to utter a single word. Reluctantly I had to cut the call and let her rest.
Everyday she used to email me about her time being spent there and that emma was really very nice to her but very strict when it comes to training. She also told that the professor was also helping her out. During his absence me and Logan were in charge of everything in the mansion. Things did go haywire every now and then but everyone enquired how jean and the professor were doing in London .
After three years….
One fine morning when I was getting ready for a morning walk I suddenly saw the front door open and two people standing there. I immediately rushed out to see that jean and the professor had arrived after her rigorous training in London . jean looked like a million bucks and had really shaped up. By now her hair had reached till her waist and was looking radiant in the morning sun.
Everyone woke up and had gathered at the common room to hear stories from both of them. Jean told us that emma was really kind enough to take her in and help her when she needed help and that her training was really tough and all.
But her training just didn't stop till then. She also joined us in danger room sessions and all of us were completely blown away with the ease with which she really smashed everything in front of her to smithereens. The professor told us jean's body had gotten accustomed to the change and that she is now an omega level telepath. We couldn't understand what he meant by that but could figure out that she has gotten strong as hell. And I was just happy for her now thinking that nothing could ever possibly go wrong. Never in my life would I ever be separated from jean….
stay tuned for the next and last chapter guys...its gonna be a whole lot of fun...i have included emma here as the professor's friend but most of you know that she is not...she was the only other telepath that i could think about at that moment...
