Logan went to follow her as soon as Mia left the room, "Don't go Logan."
said Xavier looking thoughtfully at where she had exited the room. "She
needs time to think." He explained and Logan nodded understanding yet still
wanting to help but not quite on what to do or say. The others had still
been standing in the hall silently until Jesse said, "Um, I am getting the
opinion she saw what I saw?" he asked hesitantly not really wanting the
answer to be yes but at the same time he felt greatly relieved if it was
so. If it was true and she had seen the same things in her dreams and
vision then he knew he wasn't going crazy, the only problem would be the
feelings he had developed for her over the last couple of days. What would
happen if she didn't feel the same? Even if she did there was nothing
either of them could do about it and he knew it. "Yes." Prof. Xavier said
answering Jesse's question and he also heard his thoughts. "And as you
already know it's very unlikely for it to happen." Xavier added. "You mean
that." what Brennan was saying drifted off when he understood exactly what
they were saying, instead of being upset he just laughed. "That's a good
one." He said and kept laughing as he walked away from the group. He only
laughed, as he didn't want to believe what the others were saying. Although
outside he was laughing inside he was crying, this was his little sister.
He wasn't upset about the fact that she was dreaming about Jesse, but from
the fact that she was sad and hurt by something that most people took for
granted.Love. He walked past everything as if it wasn't there. He shook his
head as he walked trying to convince himself that if he didn't believe it,
it wouldn't be true. He kept walking absent-mindedly until he was out in
the garage. He saw Mia sitting and leaning against the wall on the other
side of the area.
She was curled up in a little ball with her head down buried in her arms, which were folded across her front so he couldn't see her face. He walked over to her slowly and sat down next to her. They were both silent for a few minutes and just sat there letting the silence envelope them. "Please tell me it isn't true." Brennan said quietly as he laid his head against the wall behind him. "It isn't true." Came Mia's muffled voice as she buried her face even deeper into her arms. "Is it a lie just for my benefit?" he asked holding back the emotion he felt, the sadness and helplessness in the situation, Mia didn't say anything for a second weighing the outcomes of each answer she could give, "yes." She answered honestly as she looked up just as Brennan looked over at her. Her eyes red from tears, but even through this she could see and feel her brother's sadness shown in his eyes. "I just," Mia paused trying to hold back the tears before continuing, "I always stayed away from others so that I would have a reason not to get close to anyone. And coming here there is you. and these feelings for Jesse. I don't know why they are there and I can't handle it." She said, as she began crying again not understanding anything of what was happening. Brennan laid her head on his shoulder; Mia didn't pull away as even though she couldn't feel it, it still made her feel better.
Mia sat silently with Brennan for what felt like forever just sitting there. When a few hours had past it had grown dark outside and everyone inside was being to worry where Mia and Brennan had gone, they came back into the living areas of Sanctuary. Everyone look towards them not wanting to ask about where they had been but still wondered. Jesse wanted to run up to Mia, hug her and ask if she was ok but held back as he remembered her reaction when Brennan had hugged her. Adam broke the silence as he made a suggestion to try and work out why both Mia and Jesse were seeing these things. He wasn't quite sure how to do this but to start suggested they monitor both Mia and Jesse while they slept as both himself and Xavier had come to the conclusion that they were both sleeping at the time of the dreams, so if they monitor their brain waves and body function they may be able to get an idea why all this is happening. Both Mia and Jesse agreed as they were both frightened of why this could be happening and wanted to understand if it was real what they were feeling or just simulated for them to think it. The reason for this thought was that sometimes it was if someone had put these thoughts into their minds. Adam set up two bed/chairs in the Med-Lab where Jesse and Mia laid in the undergarments while Emma and Jean put sensors on their bodies so they could monitor them while they slept.
Mia lay there just trying to focus on breathing and nothing else, the last time she has been monitored like this was when she was back in the laboratory being experimented on she felt a wave of fear wave over her as if she were back there and again tide to the metal table. A second later she realized she wasn't and calmed down slightly yet still felt scared. Emma could sense her fear spoke softly to her as she placed the sensors on her temples. "It will be ok. I'm sure of it." She smiled at Mia who was trying to ignore the uncertainty she felt coming from Emma. She knew as well as Emma did that there was always the possibility they everything would not be ok. Jesse looked over at Mia as she looked so frightened and he knew why. He remembered how she had told him about her time in the labs and he wished he could hold her hand and comfort her but it just reminded him that it would be useless and he could never truly express how he felt towards her. Adam gave Jesse and Mia a natural sedative to help them sleep. While everyone went to their rooms to sleep as instructed, Adam, Jean, Prof Xavier and Brennan stayed in the Med-Lab watching the scans as Mia and Jesse drifted into sleep.
