When they arrived at the Professor's office they were mortified to find that it was occupied not only by Dr. McCoy and Professor Xavier, but by Ororo and Logan as well.
"Please come have a seat both of you." The Professor prompted when they stopped in the doorway. They did so and the Professor began to address Lex. "What you did for your sister today was very brave and took a lot of strength. We all commend you for that." All four adults nodded, although Logan did it somewhat hesitantly.
"We would just like you to know that we are all very proud of you and what you did today." Ororo added.
"That being said." Dr. McCoy chimed in. "We would like to discuss your more recent actions of this evening." Both teens blushed again.
"We have no policy against students dating and you two have both been model students so it is not that we don't trust you but…" The Professor began only to be cut off by Logan.
"But we don't trust your hormones." The gruff man interjected. Professor Xavier sighed.
"Although I wouldn't say it exactly that way, I do concur with Logan. You are both at a stage in your lives where we tend to do things on impulse without really thinking through the consequences of our actions." Ororo said. The Professor just shook his head.
"Charles, maybe it would be best if I discussed this with them alone." Hank said.
"I agree, Ororo, Logan, and I will leave you too it." Charles said, then began to wheel himself from the room. Ororo followed, but Logan did not.
"I'm not letting Hank screw this up or go too soft on them. I'm staying." He said, making it clear that it was not an issue he was going to discuss. Once again the Professor shook his head and left, Ororo followed close behind and shut the door behind her.
"Well, I would just like to tell you kids that it is no business of mine whether or not you engage in any kind of physical relationship and I won't try to pry into your lives but I am always here for you if you need me." Hank said. It was his policy to be up front with the students about sex. He knew it happened, he much preferred that they feel comfortable coming to him if they had an issue with an STD or suspicions of a pregnancy as opposed to hiding it. He was there to keep them healthy, not judge or lecture them. Unfortunately, Logan's policy was very different.
"Yeah so if you get syphilis or knocked up Hank's your guy. But since the point is to not do either of those things you're not going to lay a finger on her." He said pointing at Piotr. Piotr frowned.
"I am very sure zhat you cannot get syphilis from having sex with a person who doez nought have syphilis." He said. Hank laughed at the boy's remark until tears came to his eyes.
"He's got you there Logan." Hank said as he wiped the tears from his face.
"No. But you can get it from sleeping with someone who does have it." Logan countered.
"Zis is not a problem. I have not slept vith anyone in very long time so I um sure I vould have noticed if I had syphilis by now." Piotr said with a shrug. Logan was taken aback for a moment, shocked by how casually the kid spoke with him about something that had most boys' tongues in knots. It was particularly surprising once you added in the fact that Piotr was so shy and that everyone thought he was either a virgin or gay. Apparently he was neither.
"Well you can still get the girl pregnant!" Logan shouted in frustration.
"If ve vere going to have sex I vould use a condom. I am not stupid Logan." Piotr replied. Lex blushed bright red again at the thought. It was, admittedly, an exciting thought.
"Condoms break." Logan countered again.
"Zhey make medication zhat keeps you from getting pregnant even if zhe condom breaks."
"Those only work if you're not already pregnant when you take them."
"If it broke I vould help her get it quickly."
"She could still get pregnant during that time. Condoms leak too, when they're old or defective."
"I vill not get her pregnant."
"If you have sex you could get pregnant! Condom or not, any time of the month, standing up, laying down, or bent over the side of the bed!" Logan screamed. He took a deep breath and started again. "You're young. Don't make responsibility for yourselves at this age kids." He said more calmly.
"Logan. Ve vere just kissing, I vill not get her pregnant." He said out loud to Logan, Hank, and Lex herself. Lex was very sure she wasn't supposed to hear the whispered on purpose that followed.
"Logan, I do believe you've made your point, now I would like to speak with Lex, so if you and Mr. Rasputin must continue your battle of wills please do it elsewhere." Hank cut in before Logan could respond to Piotr again.
"Whatever Hank as long as his teenage swimmers don't make it anywhere near her teenage eggs I don't care." Logan said before storming out of the room to go pout somewhere over the humiliation of fighting with a nineteen year old over abstinence. Piotr left too, telling Lex he'd be in the art room if she wanted to come find him later.
When the two were finally alone Hank pulled a chair across from Lex's and sat down.
"You are aware that as far as I can tell you can have children." Hank said. Lex nodded. "Good. I want you to understand that Logan's point is a good one even if he is somewhat overzealous about it. You could conceive a child."
"I understand that." Lex said, giving another nod.
"I probably should've though of this sooner but, how much do you know about sex?" Hank asked.
"I mean, I know how it works and stuff but other than that not really anything." Lex said, without a blush this time. It was far less embarrassing to speak of such things with just Hank around.
"If you are going to begin a physical relationship with Piotr I want you to know that I really am here for you, for any concern that you might have."
"May I ask a question?"
"Of course."
"Do you think it would be a bad idea for me to have sex with him?"
"I probably shouldn't say this, but no I don't. It's a normal part of life, it brings people in a relationship closer together, if you treat it like something special it's an expression of love, and honestly if you're going to do it with anyone he's probably the boy I trust most not to hurt you in the end."
"Thanks Doc." Lex said before walking out of the office and heading down to the art room.
