Authors Note- Sorry about the delay, my account was suspended because of something with another story. I tell you, without this account for seven days, I nearly went nuts. But I had X2 to stand in for awhile, I've been practically living at the movie theatre. Now, I rewrote the ending to this, so it may be a spoiler for X2. For those of you who have seen in, it involves somewhat of the scenes from the movie, but doesn't carry the entire plot. Just thought I should clear that up before there was any confusion. Now, onto the story.

Chapter Five- Morning Sunshine
Logan didn't sleep much for the rest of the night. He kept waking at random times to always make sure Cierra was still there. Though each time she was still sleeping soundly, he couldn't risk another midnight run. She didn't move as she slept, even with the entire bed to herself, since he was in the chair at the bedside.
Around eight or nine in the morning, Logan's feet slipped off the bed, and he was sprung awake. Cierra was sitting up under the covers, watching him.
" I'm sorry about last night" the first thing she said.
" Don't worry about it" Logan smirked, " lots of people steal my jacket"
She dropped her head, " that's not what I meant".
" I know" he knelt on the floor, " just as long as you're safe" she continued to sulk. " Cierra, who were those boys?".
She inhaled deeply, " my brothers".
" Your brothers?" he repeated.
Cierra nodded, " they always find me because I'm different. But I've never used my powers on them before last night".
" It's alright, that's why we have them, to protect ourselves as well as others. How about we get some breakfast, then we can get in touch with your parents?".
She rapidly shook her head, " no, they don't want me back".
" Why wouldn't they want you back?".
Cierra used all her will power not to shed a tear, " they just don't. They got rid of me when I was four, when they found out I was different".
He wasn't sure how to handle the situation, and she didn't seem willing to share, " okay, how about just the breakfast?".
She gazed up at him, her dark eyes reflecting off her light hair, " I don't do well in public" she ran a finger along a scar on her arm.
Logan smirked, " I've got just the thing for that". He stood up where his half empty closet was. When it was opened, Cierra got a small glimpse of a black leather suit hanging by itself. Logan pulled a gray sweatshirt with long sleeves and a hood to cover her marks, " this should do".

He wanted to make her as comfortable as possible. Dragging her down to the lab the second she woke up wouldn't be a good idea. Cierra hesitated walking into the cafeteria. Everyone was staring at her, they knew. When all were mutants, she was the only outcast.
" Don't pay attention to them, they need time to-get to know you" Logan whispered.
The two sat at a table alone, she was exposed to them all, scared even of her cereal. Not far away, bobby and Rogue were watching as well. He whispered something in her ear, she nodded. They hot up with their things and came to their table, Bobby next to Cierra and Rogue next to Logan. She felt better not that someone with a kind smile was blocking her.
" Cierra, this is Rogue and Bobby" she simply smiled, but the others had a very warm welcoming.
Rogue glanced at Logan before asking, " how old are you Cierra?".
Cierra poured mil out of her spoon, " seven".
That answer really made Logan wonder. She said her parents ' got rid of her' when she was only four. It had been three years.
Before Bobby had the chance to ask a question, Jean approached the table from the entrance, bending down. " Hi Cierra, my name is Jean".
" Hi" she said softly.
' I'm a doctor, I was wondering if you'd like to come with me, make sure everything with you is okay".
Cierra looked up at Logan, " will you come too?".
He was stunned by the question, even more so when all eyes were on him. " Sure".
