A/N: I hope you guys like this story. I'd really love some feedback on it…cause this is my first Bobby/Marie story. J Enjoy.
The week progressed. Everyone became more stressed out as warning signs of Magneto's raid became even more evident.
"Morning you lovebirds." John poked his head into Bobby's room. "It's laundry day. Hurry it up."
Bobby yawned; pulling himself to a sitting position before noticing Marie was still asleep. Her head lay on his chest and her arms were wrapped around his waist. He smiled, softly kissing her on the head to wake her. She rubbed her eyes, wincing at the bright sunlight that shone in from the open window.
John walked in, obviously annoyed at their lack of punctuality. It was Thursday, and Thursday meant it was John's laundry day. He did NOT like to be kept behind schedule due to Bobby and Marie's delay.
"Guys! Get up! Don't make me use my powers!" John threatened, glaring at Bobby, who just laughed.
"Don't make me use mine." Bobby replied with a sneer. The couple got out of bed and Bobby threw John the icy-blue colored bedspread.
Marie slipped her slippers on and walked over to the nightstand to find her injection needle.
"Oh my gosh." She gasped, and she frantically looked around the room.
"What's wrong?" Bobby turned after slipping a black turtleneck over his head.
"Where's my medication? Oh my gosh…Bobby!!" She screamed hysterically. "They're coming to get me today. I just know it." She dropped to ground to search for the needle and medication bottle.
John smiled evilly. "Looking for this?" He held up the tiny bottle and needle. Marie glared at him before snatching it from him. "You asshole! I hate you."
"I love you too babe." John grinned as Marie scowled at him.
Bobby quickly shooed John out of the bedroom and he closed the door behind him.
"I think I'm going to take a quick shower. Mind if I use yours?" Marie questioned. A strap of her nightgown fell off her shoulder and she reached with her finger to adjust it. Bobby couldn't help but stare at her beauty.
"Um…Bobby?" She looked at him with a question in her eye.
"Oh…um sure. I'm going to go really quick to Scott's room to ask him a question. I'll be right back." He went out of the room as Marie turned on the shower.

"Marie? Honey? You done?" Bobby came back into the room, to find Marie, wrapped in a towel, fixing her hair. She must have just gotten out of the shower, for there were still tiny beads of water along her back. Steam floated gracefully up into the air and Bobby leaned over to kiss her on her neck. She pulled away quickly.
"Sorry…medication isn't in yet." She laughed at his pouting face before reaching across the counter to pick up the needle. Bobby wrapped his arms around her waist as she stared at the needle.
"Well, here we go." Marie grimaced at the pain as the needle entered her skin and punctured the vein in her wrist. Bobby closed his eyes, unable to watch the point pierce her arm.
"It's all over." She turned around in his arms. "Really…it's not that bad." Marie grinned.
Bobby laughed. "It looks bad. I'm sorry you have to go through this." He leaned his head on hers and took a whiff of her hair. It smelled of the lavender shampoo she always used.
"Well…its all for you." She winked at her sweetheart and she glanced at her watch. "Oh shoot…I've got to change. We've only got 20 minutes before lessons with Scott. And you know how he is."
Bobby handed her her clothes. She blushed as she ordered him to turn around.
He turned, but his male hormones got the best of him and he glanced behind his shoulder to see her nightgown fall to the ground. He shuddered blissfully.
"Bobby Drake. You turn yourself right back around this moment." Marie scolded him. He cringed. He was caught.
She didn't seem mad though and before he knew it, she was standing on her tiptoes and kissed him lightly on the cheek. "You're cute. That makes up for it."

Halfway through history, Jubilee burst into Professor Summer's office. "Professor Xavier says to come quick! The back lab is on fire!"
Scott grabbed his coat and rushed out the door. Bobby and Marie followed right behind him as the rest of the class chased after them.
When they got outside, they saw to their horror, the back shed where many extra chemical materials were kept, was captured in flames. Marie gasped, seeing the red flames eat at the wood, burning anything and everything in its path.
Bobby felt himself being yanked from the crowd by Scott and reluctantly let go of Marie's hand.
"Bobby, freeze the shed. There's a tiny section that hasn't been burned yet. You can save it." Scott nodded to him, for HE was the only one able to stop the fire. Bobby saw Marie smile at him and she mouthed the words, "I love you" softly to him.
Those words gave Bobby the courage he needed. Swiftly he ran towards the open area of the shed.
Ororo gasped and she screamed, "Bobby! What are you doing?" but Scott just nodded and she understood.
Come on Drake…focus. Bobby thought to himself. He concentrated, pushing all the energy he had into the palm of his hand. When the energy hit it's climax, he shot his hand out and a huge blast of ice encased the small lab and all of the fire was extinguished except for the tiny group of flames that still slowly burned in the corner, but Scott quickly put it out.
Bobby collapsed, for the blast had taken a lot of power out of his body. He lay there on the ground, gasping for breath until he saw the face of his beloved Marie.
"Bobby. I'm so proud of you." she took his face in her hands and gave him a long and loving kiss.

Meanwhile, Logan had found a new letter tacked against the front gate. "Dammit! Mystique's in this as well!" He groaned, and threw the letter down on the table, a habit he discovered was making him quite angry.
