I don't own any of the x men. And I don't own commandment number three
that belongs to RahneMan. I want to thank him and dedicate this fic to him;
he makes me want to continue writing. Thanks a lot!

About a half hour before the barbecue was to begin Ashley and Rhane sat on the ground in shorts and t-shirts sighing over the bare chests of Scott and Logan. They barely paid any attention to the other mutants who were flexing their bones to the other girls.
Sam opened the side door of the mansion and peered outside. He saw where Rhane and his sister were sitting and decided to surprise them by coming up from behind. He walked out and everyone except for Logan, who was grinning like a mad man, allowed their jaws to drop practically to the ground. Rhane and Ashley hadn't realized what the people were gawking at until they turned around and saw the tall, leaner replica of Logan.
As soon as Rhane turned around Sam remembered to strut. He began to swagger, thrusting his hips slightly forward the way Logan had taught him a little before he had left. He gave Rhane a grin when he stopped in front of her. He noticed his sister's cheeks turning red. Rhane was trying hard not to stare at his jeans that seemed too tight for comfort.
"Hey Rhane, how's life treatin' ya?" Rhane smiled at him and nodded slowly.
"I'm doin' fine, what's wit the new look Sam?" She looked him up and down and raised an auburn eyebrow.
"Well, ah figured it was time for a new change. What do ya think?" Rhane smile was a bit strained and Sam picked up on it, his shoulders slightly sagged until he noticed Logan straighten up and give him a hint to do so as well. Sam puffed out his chest and winked at Rhane. "Don't worry sugah, no need to compliment what's too good for words." He repeated the phrase Logan had said worked on all women and began to strut over to Logan, who gave him a wink.
"Hey Mini Me, do you mind helping me with that table over there?" Sam and Logan glared at Scott who had made the comment. Scott reddened slightly and walked over to the table with Sam behind him. They lifted the chair and Sam forgot about strutting (and swaggering and winking and basically just acting as Logan) because of the physical drainage he was experiencing.
"Ya know when he isn't tryin' ta be macho he sure can be a sweet heart." Ashley commented when Sam took a chair over to Ororo who had been standing, waiting until everything was done.
"It's true; I wonder what's gotten into him?" Rhane asked. Ashley suspected that Logan was giving Sam advice. Sam had always been shy but his way of showing his feelings leaned more to him pulling a chair for a girl or giving her something to drink if she was thirsty, he had never been openly suggestive.
She thought about telling him but decided to let it go, she had already found out what she needed to know about Rhanes feelings for him, and he needed to find it out for himself, whether he liked it or not. Ashley closed her eyes and sighed when her brother took his shirt off awkwardly after much ribbing from Logan.
"Oh laird!" Rhanes response was similar to Ashley's aside from the accent. Though Sam was lean he wasn't without his little bit of muscle, but it was still unnerving to watch him take his shirt off. They sighed in relief when he blushed at the other girls who were staring at him and decided to put it back on.
Ashley sat between Rhane and Sam at the table. Ashley and Rhane spoke a mile a minute, while Sam laughed, being amused by the stories that was occurring at the farm back home. Sam leaned over and addressed Rhane who had snorted after hearing one of Ashley's escapades.
"Ah'm tellin' ya Rhane, one of these days ah'm a take ya to my farm. Ya would think it's borin' but if ya know how ta get around that it's the best place in the world." He leaned back and continued eating his burger and not saying a word while Rhane and Ashley waited for him to continue. When nothing else was said Ashley rolled her eyes. Forget everythin' ah said, that boy needs all the help he can get, she thought.
Rhane and Sam spoke little after that since they had been chosen on opposite sides of the teams on most of the games being played. Ashley participated whole heartedly regardless of her lack of mutant powers and in fact used a lot of speed and agility during the games.
"You are quite good, Ashley." The professor had commented at one time.
"Comes from all the hog games down south Professor." She joked with him and gave him a jaunty wink. The professor laughed and they all enjoyed the day.
Before going to bed, Sam knocked on Logan's door. Sam's hair had been washed and was now a mess all over his head, since he had dried it rapidly after his bath. Logan opened the door and smiled smugly at Sam.
"Um, Ah was wonderin' if ya thought that it worked?"
"Course it did, Kid. Now, Commandment number three, thou shall not talk like a Red-Neck. We'll work on that tomorrow."
"How am ah supposed to talk?"
"That's easy Kid, like me." Logan shut the door leaving a confused Sam behind.
He went to bed and fell asleep going through a few random nicknames for his beloved.
