A few days later the school fair was going on, so the kids were out at the fair while the adults were back either at the school or wherever they were. Logan was talking to the Professor along with Forge who was visiting for a while. Forge soon left to attend to some business of his own. Xavier turned to Logan. "So how have you been, you and Ororo I mean…" Logan looked down to the man and smiled, "It's been good, thanks for understanding." The Professor smiled, "Forgive me for saying this… but, I've never seen you like this before…" "Like what?" The man asked, "Just, this calm." Logan looked at him shocked at his comment, then smiled. "Well, I guess I just found my perfect match." The Professor smiled.
Logan went up to Ororo's room, for a visit. She was sitting on her bed holding her head. "Ro?" He asked entering the door. "Ya ok?" She nodded, "Yeah, I'm alright, I just feel strange…" "Like what?" Her husband asked sitting down next to her, he put his arm around his wife, she smiled at him leaning into him. Then something crossed her mind. She got up going to the bathroom. He waited outside. A minute later she came out with a shocked look on her face. He got up to see what was wrong. They sat down again, she turned to him. "Hey babe…" She said, "Yeah?" "You know how our marriage is a secret…" "Yeah…" "Well, I think we spoiled it." "What do ya mean?" He asked, she looked at him both joyfully and sadly. "I'm pregnant." His face broke into a look of WHAT?!. "Really?" "Yes." Then as realization hit him, he knew what this meant to them. They would have to make it known now or it would just be weird. "You think we should tell the Professor?" Ororo asked, Logan nodded. They sent him a telepathic message about it. She looked back at him noticing his expression, it was one of worry. "Logan, are you alright?" He looked back at her and the worry started to fade into a gentle smile. "Yeah." He responded, then looked down to where their child was being held and nurtured, putting his hand on her stomach. "Baby huh." He said rubbing her tummy. She nodded cautiously not sure of his reaction. "A baby." "Yes…" The white of his teeth started to show as the smile grew in size. He exhaled a quick short breath that sounded like a mix between a sob and a laugh. He looked at her as she touched his face with her hand smiling joyfully. "Our baby." "Our baby?" "Yes… ours." He exhaled again like the same as he did before, this time more clearly. He put his hand behind her head, pulling her to him. They touched noses and foreheads sweetly, then kissed. He bent down a moment later wrapping his arms around her waist placing his head on her stomach snuggling it. She smiled to him emotion starting to take over, she ran her fingers through his hair giving his scalp a light massage, he purred at the action pulling her closer to him. "Thank you James." She commented to him, he looked up at her for a moment to her smiling face. Though he'd seen it so many times her radiance still sent a shiver all through him. He had a question written in his expression. "For this." She clarified, he smiled to her then turned his head to her stomach area planting a light yet heartfelt kiss on the place where their child formed.
They stayed together for the remainder of the day. When dinner came they were early, knowing that everyone would be anxious to get there. "Hey Ororo where were you? We were looking for you for like a while." Kitty asked looking at her concerned, she then gave her a hug. "I'm sorry Kitty, I guess I just needed some time alone today." The Professor looked at Logan knowing the news they sent him earlier. They talked telepathically till Jean got there. 'What's going on?' Jean thought, 'Oh, nothing much, just some plans Ororo had…' he thought back, they didn't talk anymore on the subject for the rest of the night.
Early the next morning Logan woke up to the sunlight shining into their room from the open window that had been left open the previous night. Looking over to Ororo, she was still asleep, he turned slightly, kissing her lightly on the cheek. She smiled opening her eyes, turning her head to see him. "Hey Darlin'." He said his face a few inches above hers, they kissed, warmth spread across her face as she smiled again.
Meanwhile in the hallway, Kitty and Rogue were on their way to the kitchen. "Then I said, Oh Scott you have such a way with pastry, ha-ha-ha!" Kitty laughed, Rogue was unamused by Kitty's humor, "Ugh, grow up!" She said pushing Kitty away, she phased through the wall unintentionally finding herself in a small room. 'ugh rude…' she thought. She was about to go back through the wall when she heard someone talking from the other room. "So, what do you think we should tell them?" One said, "Hmm, I'm not sure yet…" Kitty knew those voices, it was Ororo and Logan, but together, at this time of day? "You think we should tell them about the little one when it's more obvious?" "Yeah that'd probably be best. Just incase the organization get's any whiff of me they won't touch you or the baby." He said rubbing his hand over her stomach. "Logan…" Ororo said not wanting him to worry that the facility would get their hands on her or their family. "I'm sorry Ro, I know you don't want me thinkin' about it…" Kitty still in the closet gasped… 'Logan and Ororo have a baby? But, how, when? And… Logan's being hunted… By who? Why?'
A moment later Logan turned his head catching Kitty's scent. "What's wrong?" Ororo asked looking concerned. "Half Pint…" He said jumping up running to the closet, he opened it and saw Kitty's foot phase through the wall. She ran through the hallway as fast as she could. "KITTY WAIT!" He shouted running after her, she phased through a few more walls getting as far away as she could. 'Chuck! Kit Cat knows about me n' Ro… don't let her tell anyone!' He thought loudly. Charles got the message. 'Kitty! Kitty!' Charles thought to Kitty loudly, Kitty stopped 'Professor, you won't believe what I just heard!' She thought back. 'I know Kitty, come to my office quickly before anyone else knows.' She rushed to the Professor's room, so did Logan and Ororo. Kitty looked over to the couple, hoping she didn't severely offend them especially Logan. "What's this all about Professor?" She asked fear obvious in her voice, the Professor looked at Logan and nodded. "The point is Kit Cat, that you were listenin' in on a personal conversation that was none of your business." She stepped away to the wall. "Logan…" Ororo said giving him that look, he realized how much he'd accidentally scared Kitty and sighed. "Sorry... the Professor can probably explain it better than either of us right now…" He went back to stand next to her. Kitty came back to the desk. "Well Kitty, the reason I called you here was to tell you what this is all about since it seems to be the only thing we can do." Logan looked at him knowing this was literally the only option they had. "The truth is, Logan and Ororo are married…" Kitty's eyes widened. "Whoa, really?!" She looked back at the two smiling. "Yes." "But, then why didn't you guys say anything about it? I mean not everything's like life or death right…" "Actually Kitty, you may be wrong on that point, Logan and Ororo don't prefer to keep this confidential but it may be crucial to their survival." "But, that doesn't even make sense… Why?" "It's because, a facility I worked with once… They're hunting all of their former… employees down and either killing them or experimenting on them… to make them…" He paused not wanting to say the next thing in front of Kitty knowing what a shock it could give her. "Logan…" He heard his wife's voice at his side. "Weapons…" Kitty gasped at the thought of someone being taken by force and made to go through the pain and suffering that would be. Why would anyone on the face of the earth do that? They were obviously crazy. "Worst case scenario if they got word of Ororo and the child they could try and take them to get to Logan, that's why it's a secret…" "Oh…" Kitty hadn't realized how vital this was to them. "Wow, Logan, Ororo, I had no idea… I-I'm sorry." "It's ok Kitty, we understand." Ororo said putting her hand on Kitty's shoulder smiling warmly, Kitty hugged her. "I just, I'm really happy for you guys… I mean, the good part." "Hmm hmm, we know." Logan and Charles smiled. "We might as well tell the others now Chuck, I don't know if Kit Cat here will be able to contain the news…" Logan stated, Kitty looked back to him. "Oh, I can keep a secret." She said exuberantly, Logan laughed. "I'm sure you can Half Pint, I don't like keepin' this secret myself, that's the point." Kitty smiled, Charles looked at him. "Are you sure Logan? You did say that earlier would be riskier than later." Logan gave him a half smile then turned his attention to his wife, she smiled back at him. The day happened pretty quick after that.
