"Scott! What happened!" Jean yelled, running toward him and Logan.
"He got blindsided by one of the simulated dinosaurs." Scott answered, trying to show a little more compassion since it kind of was his fault.
Logan groaned, rolling over and getting to his feet. He put out his hand as Jean tried to help him up. "It's okay Jeannie, I'm fine."
Jean bit her lip and frowned, glaring at Scott. "You said this was going to be an easy sim!" She was catching a few of Scott's surface thoughts, and could tell he felt guilty. She knew he purposely baited Logan into the session though, and that made her angry.
"It's okay, I jus' wasn't payin' attention." Logan offered, trying to better the situation. He knew that Cyclops was probably testing him, and it angered him that he wasn't able to pass. Logan wouldn't make that mistake again. He shouldn't have taken the challenge if he wasn't ready, but it was just too tempting to pass up. Right now, although he could take advantage of the situation and get Scotty boy in trouble, Logan wasn't going to turn into a little whiny wimp and blame it all on the guy.
Jean sighed, looking Logan up and down to make sure he was okay. She noticed a dark patch in the black part of his uniform on his side, just under Logan's hand where he held it. There was no doubt in her mind that it was blood. Jean frowned, looking at him sadly. "Logan...you're bleeding."
His brows furrowed and he tipped his hand to the side on the sore spot under his ribs. Logan grunted. "It's ahright, it's nothin'." He half-smiled, but Jean didn't buy it, she knew he was in pain.
"I'm...sorry about all this." Scott offered, stepping forward a little bit.
Jean waved him off, grabbing Logan by the arm and leading him out of the Danger Room. "Come on, let's get you to the infirmary."
---------------
Jubilee, Rogue, and Ororo were all in the rec room when Scott stormed in. Jubilee and Rogue continued playing ping-pong, avoiding the gaze of their angry looking leader.
"What crawled up his pants and died?" Jubilee whispered with a smirk to Rogue.
Rogue let out a quiet laugh, hitting the ping-pong ball toward Jubes. "I dunno sugah, but I don't wanna be around tah find out. Wanna see if Remy's up for a game of basketball?"
"Sure." Jubilee smiled and put down the ping-pong paddle as she and Rogue quietly exited the rec room.
Ororo looked up from reading her book when Scott plopped down on the couch. She frowned, noticing that he was obviously upset about something. "What's bothering you Scott?"
He let out a heavy sigh and grumbled, "Nothing."
Ororo rolled her eyes, getting up from her seat and sitting down beside Scott. She put an arm around his shoulder and leaned toward him. "It's not 'nothing'. You know you can tell me anything."
Scott half-smiled. She was right, he could always tell her what was bugging him. Ororo was a great friend...possibly something more. Why the heck should he be so upset over Jean anyways? It's not like they had anything, she always seemed distant. Maybe it was because she was always waiting for her special someone to come back, because she'd already found him...in Logan. Scott jumped to his feet with a smile, startling Ororo. "You know what? I'm taking you out to dinner."
Ororo had a surprised smile on her face. "Oh really now Mr.Summers?"
Scott took her hand, getting her to her feet. "Well, what do you say? A night on the town with me Ororo?"
She grinned, pleased with the idea of a night alone with Scott. "Of course. But isn't it a little early for dinner?"
He shrugged. "We can do other things 'till then." He offered a charming smile that could rival one of Remy's. "See a movie, maybe go for a nice long walk on the town."
"I'd love to. You can be quite the charmer Scott, you know that?" Ororo winked at him before leaving the rec room to get changed for the occasion.

Logan had changed out of the black and white uniform, and walked into the infirmary wearing just a pair of plain black sweat pants. He still had his hand gripped to the bloody bandages on his side, regarding Jean as he sat down on the medical table. "Where's Hank?"
"I haven't told him, I'm going to take care of this." She put on a pair of gloves and took out a box of clean bandages and antibiotics. Jean stood infront of Logan and reached to remove the bandages.
He held out his hand. "I got it." He said gruffly, carefully undoing the bandages himself. He would've really preferred Hank to take care of this, only because he didn't want Jean to see how bad he'd aggrivated the wound. She worried enough about him anyways.
Jean sighed once the open wound was visible. "Lay down Logan, I have to clean it first." He complied slowly, and she gently wiped away the blood to better see the damaged area.
Logan flinched and took in a sharp breath when she touched the gash on his side.
Jean pulled back, biting her lower lip. "I'm sorry." He just nodded, and she could tell he was gritting his teeth. She continued to carefully clean the wound. Jean felt bad that he was still in pain, she'd thought he was more recovered than that. Maybe he was just faking it so he could leave. Jean did convince him to stay, and he agreed, but pretty much just until he had healed. She didn't want him to leave, she wanted to help him, but he needed to allow her to help.
After Jean was finished taking care of Logan's injuries, he sat up gingerly, flopping his feet over the side of the medical table. He grunted, standing up. "So Jeannie, what've you been doin' the past couple o' years?"
She shrugged with a wan smile, putting away the medical supplies. "Well, after...after I left, I came up here like I said I was. Professor Xavier taught me better control of my powers, and I've been an X-Man ever since."
Logan nodded."So, are you an' Scott...?"
Jean shook her head with a short laugh. "No, no. Scott likes Ororo, he just hasn't admitted it yet." She smiled, seeing Logan smile with a little bit of relief.
"I've missed you ya know." He told her quietly.
Jean moved in closer. "I've missed you too Logan."
He knew he couldn't resist her any longer, so Logan threw caution to the wind, leaned in and kissed her long and good.
Jean was a little surprised, but she no doubt kissed him back, wrapping her arms around his neck.
When they finally parted after the kiss, Jean looked a little flustered, but the slight tension between them had died down considerably. She smiled, taking Logan by the arm and leaning her head against his shoulder as they exited the med lab.
