Scott knocked lightly on Jean's door, hoping that she was still awake. He put his ear to the door and heard footsteps coming; he knew that Jean would most probably know it was him, after all, she wasn't a psychic for nothing.
He wasn't expecting what he greeted his eyes when the door opened, Jean was standing there in her pyjamas, eyes red from crying, tear stains on her face, her mascara was running. Her blanket was over her like a shawl, and she was holding in her hand a wad of tissues. Even in her current state, she was still beautiful to him. He wanted to sweep her into his arms and tell her it was all right, but knowing her, she would have to get an explanation and apology first. He scratched his head sheepishly and asked, "May I come in?"
As much as Jean didn't like Phoebe or Cole, she couldn't bring herself to harm either of them, but she was still very upset about Scott and was very surprised to see him standing outside her room. When he asked if he could come in, part of her wanted to say yes, and the other to just slam the door in his face. Who did he think he was, to just fall in love with another girl and cast her aside, then when he gets rejected, to expect her to fall at his feet again?
Jean refused to let him in, she shook her head, asking, "What do you want at this time of the night?"
"I came to apologise. I know I was stupid to think she would like me, or that she was the right one for me. I'm sorry for everything I did..."
Scott didn't manage to finish talking, as Jean leaned over the frame of the doorway and kissed him. As much as Jean initiated it, Scott wanted it as badly as she did, and he welcomed it. Her hand was locked in his hair and his slid down her back, causing the blanket to fall off her shoulders and onto the floor. Sparks were flying wildly and it seemed as if Jean's whole body was in a tingle. They were oblivious to another couple at the end of the corridor that disappeared as quickly as they came.
Phoebe and Cole were glad that the young couple had gotten back together, and after shimmering away from the passionate kiss, Phoebe decided to stay with Cole for the night; she didn't want to disturb the two lovebirds.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++ It was early in the morning when Kitty roused Paige from her beauty sleep.
"Paige...Wake up we've got school today."
"School? You guys go to school? Oh wait I didn't mean that..."
"It's alright, but hurry up, everyone's downstairs already."
"But I'm too old for school..."
"Your sister decided it would be good for you to go anyway,. Phoebe's downstairs already, so you'd best hurry up. I'll wait for you." Kitty said, pulling Paige up from the bed, after removing the pillow from over her head.
Paige got up slowly, after which she walked to the cupboard she shared with Kitty and picked out an outfit - it was considered more decent than her other outfits, and she hoped it was all right for school. After brushing her teeth and taking a bath, Kitty accompanied the still sleepy Paige to the dining room.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
As Paige entered the dining room, Logan was busy lecturing Scott on how irresponsible he had been, but turned to look around to greet her with a 'morning', something that astounded all at the table. Phoebe was dressed in a tank top and a pair of track pants, and as she walked in from the kitchen she greeted her sister with a hug, then she whispered to Scott, " I said I'll take care of it and I will."
Piper walked in with Ororo, just as Phoebe reached Logan at his end of the table.
"I challenge you to a battle, and if I win, you lay off Scott, but if I lose... you get to go on a date with Paige." Phoebe enunciated each word clearly, carefully taking in the expression on Logan's face.
"What?!" both Logan and Paige shouted and screamed in respective orders.
Piper looked aghast, while Leo gave Cole a knowing look. Paige blushed slightly, she was shocked that her sister had suggested that, but she really didn't mind going on a date with Logan. It would be the first since she came to Bayville, and from the looks that Logan had been giving her, and from the deviancies from his usual behaviour (from what Kitty had told her) she was sure that he wouldn't mind either.
Logan looked shocked, and he didn't know if Phoebe was kidding or not, but by the look on her face, she wasn't. He wouldn't mind going on a date with Paige; in fact he had wanted to ask her... But it wouldn't have been good for his image. The Professor smiled, then said telepathically to Logan, *It wouldn't kill you to go on a date Logan, and I'm glad for once you're actually interested in someone other than for the purpose of killing. Go ahead, I volunteer to lend the gymnasium for this. Anyway, you aren't afraid of losing are you? * The Professor knew he had hit his weak spot, Logan growled menacingly, "I don't need the date, but I never step away from a challenge. Fine. We'll meet in the gym after school, just you and me."
Phoebe grinned; her ploy had worked, killing two birds with one stone indeed. Cole grabbed her as she was walking towards Piper's car, "What do you think you're doing? It's dangerous. I disallow it."
"Why?" Piper asked teasingly, "You don't think I can do it? I'm your best disciple by far you know."
"But you're my only disciple; besides, you're my girlfriend. What would I do if you were sliced to pieces? Other than killing Logan, of course."
"If I were ever to end up in that sorry state, the least you could do is call Leo. Anyway I'll be fine dear; I've got to go to school now. Hurry up Paige!" She hollered.
"Well then I'm coming with you."
"No you're not."
"Yes I am, and you know you can't stop me."
"You know what, fine. Come along, make all the girls there jealous of me, and if I get killed by a bunch of rabid, hormone imbalanced females..."
"I'll call Leo." Cole said as he winked, then he slid into the car and settled comfortably in the passenger seat.
Phoebe threw him a fake punch as she hustled Paige into the passenger seat, forcing her in the middle of herself and Cole. Piper and Leo took the front two seats, and they followed the X jeep to Bayville High.
