Rating: PG-13
Pixie Flyer--I don't know I used Meredith, I was trying to think of a name and Meredith came to me. And Tigressong, I'm sorry I disappointed you.

Marie hid a smile as she watched the remaining people look at the Professor in awe. She wandered what they were thinking when she mentioned that the Professor would be coming over, did they imagine someone who looked so obviously a mutant? She was snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the wheelchair settle with a quite thump.
She heard the sound of pounding feet and smiled when Jubes and Kitty came running through the door and nearly ran into the Professor. They both gave a squeal when they saw him and the girls joined hands when they saw Storm and Jean behind him. Both girls planted kisses on his baldhead and Logan smirked while her and Jean and Storm laughed as a faint stain of pink appeared on the Professor's face.
"Hey! It's not snowing! It's not snowing and Storm is here." Jubes cried. She was jabbed rather roughly in the ribs by Kitty. "What!?" She looked at her annoyed. She didn't get it, she said that 'Ro was here and it wasn't snowing, so that must mean she wasn't angry anymore. She heard Storm give a delicate chuckle, Jubes didn't know someone could chuckle delicately but she did.
Marie lead the way up the stairs and the two women followed. Storm stopped near the two teenagers and said, "Yes, young ones. I am here and it is not snowing. I am no longer angry." Kitty and Jubes exchanged worried looks, " Is he still alive?" Kitty asked in a whisper. This time the weather goddess gave full belly laugh. "Yes, he is still alive" and walked to the screen door that Jean was holding open for the Professor.
^^^^^^
The people in the house stared in awe as the two beautiful women entered. Both so very different and yet so much the same. And for a moment Meredith felt threatened. These two women were not like the others that were around here. They were poised and elegant and sophisticated looking, she didn't like it. They made her fell like she was some tomboy that decided to wear a dress and pretend to be a girl.
Her attentions were turned to Marie and she looked like she belonged with them. For the first time she noticed that her movements were fluid, like a dancer and that she held her head high and that she no longer slumped her shoulders. She stood proud and tall, like a queen with the other women. She slinked into the shadow and watched.
^^^^^^
Marie found her mother in the kitchen looking out the window, wringing her hands in her apron. "Momma?" She asked gently. Today had been a big day full of revelations and a funeral. Marie shook her head, had it only been today, only, what, six hours since she buried her Daddy? Her mother looked at her, " What does he want me for? Do you know?" Marie shook her head, "Yes and it's gonna be okay, trust me. The Professor is a kind man."
^Rogue, May I come in? ^ It was the Professor. Marie told him it was okay and walked out of the kitchen as the professor wheeled in to talk to her mother.
^^^^^
I'm thinking of doing a few more chapters before I finish this.
