"You have no idea?" Logan asked.
I shook my head and threw my hands up, "No clue."
Suddenly the Professor came into the room.
"It's the force field." He said.
We all looked at him.
"The protective field has spread from your mind to your body as well. You didn't trust Hank, therefore your body repelled him."
"I'm sorry Hank." I told him.
He got up slowly, "Don't worry. I'll be okay." He said pulling a tool out of his back.
"It's late. The younger kids need their sleep." Xavier said. "Let's be quiet." he asked.
I nodded and got off the table. Logan joined me.
"I'm sorry I thought you had done it on purpose. I don't know what I was thinking." He said.
I held his hand as we walked to my room.
"I don't blame you." I told him. "Goodnight." I told him as I opened the door.
He pulled me back and pulled me close in a hug. I sighed into his chest.
"Goodnight." He said letting go.
The whole next day Jean spent getting ready. I spent most of the day locked up in her room with her. Kitty popped in periodically for advice. Disappearing threw the floor when she had what she wanted.
"I know you're not excited." Jean said.
"I am, just not as much as you." I told her.
"Do you want me to hook you up with one of my friends?" she asked.
I shook my head. "No thanks." I told her.
"Do you like someone?" she asked with a sly smile.
There was no way she knew about Logan and I.
"Why do you say that?" I asked.
"Because you're always in a day dream. It's got to be about some guy. Tell me." She smiled. "Do I know him?" she asked.
I shook my head in a lie. "No it's a guy I knew before I came here." I lied.
"Do you keep in touch?" she asked.
"We talk periodically." I shrugged.
She nodded, "That's good."
I put my face in my hands. There was a knock on the door.
"Can you get it?" Jean asked me.
I got up from the bed and went to the door.
"Who is it?" I asked because Jean was half naked.
"It's Rogue." I heard her familiar southern twang.
"Hey." I smiled opening the door. "Can you help me?" she asked holding out her makeup bag.
I smiled, "Of course."
I did her makeup a little lighter than she usually did it.
"I like it." She smiled as she looked in the mirror.
"You're welcome." I joked.
"Thanks." She smiled before running out of the room excitedly.
She didn't close the door and a minute later Logan was in the door way. He motioned for me to come out. I looked to Jean who was preoccupied with choosing earrings. I left the room and quietly closed the door behind me.
"Hey." I smiled at him.
"I finished the bike." He said. "Want to go for a ride?" he asked.
I felt bad to turn him down but I shook my head.
"I cant, the dance remember?" I asked. "Even though I'd rather go with you." I told him.
"Then come with me, who cares about the dance?" he asked.
"Jean does, and I promised Eric." I explained.
"I changed my mind about that guy." He said. "I don't like him."
I laughed.
"Can we go some other time?" I asked him.
He sighed, "Yeah I guess so."
But I could see he wasn't satisfied.
"I'm sorry." I said grabbing his hand before he could walk off.
"I know." He said.
I kissed his cheek and smiled at him.
"See you later." He said.
"See ya." I said before going back into Jean's room.
Around six we all left the house in Scott's car. Rogue looked a lot happier than usual. At the high school Eric was waiting for me outside.
"Hey." I smiled at him. "You look nice." I told him.
"You too." He agreed taking my hand and leading me into the dance. I danced with him for a while until I turned around one minute and he was gone. I left the gym to check the halls for him.
"Spencer!" I heard someone yell.
