Part 5: Bonds and Bursting Doors

DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN XMEN!

While Charles was trying to… Scott was looking all over the Institute for Jean. He hadn't had the time to propose to her, but also he wanted to make sure she was ok because she said she wasn't feeling well. After searching the Institute more than 10 times. He decided she wasn't home. Perhaps, he thought she went out to buy medicine. But what was troubling his mind more was the fact that Logan was nowhere to be found. He kept thinking the worst even when he tried to be calm. Maybe he raped her he thought. Poor Jean. Then, it happened. The bond that they shared was too close, he felt her in himself he had to get to her one way or another he had to rescue her from the evil metal clutches of Logan. So he set out just following his gut feeling making that bond of his and Jean guide him to his destination. He wasn't in control of himself anymore. The bond was so strong it was as if he was a prisoner to it, lagging along behind.

Finally after about 30 minutes he arrived at an elegant hotel. He quietly checked in as to not make any suspicion and went to his room. He rested for about half an hour and then got up, driven by the over powering bond. He left his room and traveled up and down flights of stairs till finally he came to a stop on the second floor. He paced back and forth at the door he felt was hers, deciding upon what approach he would take. Finally he heard it, a scream that belonged to Jean's. He couldn't take it he blasted the doors and there he saw a family. They were scared and the children started screaming while a mother slipped into the bathroom with her baby. The father was angry so he pulled out his gun and said, "What the fuck are you doing you… freak?"

"I'm s-s-so-so-sor-sor sorry…"

He dashed into the laundry room escaping the bullets and just managing to slip away from the father. What am I doing he thought to himself. But all of a sudden that overpowering feeling came over him again and he collected his things from his room, checked out and drove off in his car. This time he ended up in front of a cheap motel. It was awfully dirty. Then once again he heard it, Jean's screams as well as crashing things. It also seemed to smell like a fresh storm and sulfur. O well he thought. He stopped in front of the door of the screams and crashing things, this time he knocked saying house keeping. Nobody came to answer but the screams were getting more intense and he could've sworn he heard a grunt like Logan's. He decided he would blast the door. He did so, he heard laughter coming from the bathroom he approached it cautiously. He slowly opened the door and then suddenly Storm screamed.

"What the fuck are you doing here Scott?" Ororo yelled very angry that he had interrupted a fine moment.

"I would ask you the same thing, but I can see- Scott shot back, observing Ororo's curvy body.

"Get out!"

"I'm sorry, I'm looking for Jean."

"Well, she's not here!"

Scott quickly left, but he still heard the lifelike screams. They were coming from the next room he was so sure. He wasted no time and kicked the door open. Sure enough Jean was on the bed with Logan. Jean stood up and wrapped a sheet around her when she noticed Scott was here.

"What are you doing here Scott?"

"Rescuing you."

"I don't need to be rescued."

"What?"

"I came on my own free will, Logan and I are in love."

"What..?"

Scott was at a lost for words.

"She said she's okay so you can go home, laser boy."

"No, you brainwashed her."

And suddenly he blasted at Logan. Logan ducked and they began to fight. No sooner had Jean used her powers to force Scott out of the room and repair the door.

"Now, where were we?"

Logan just mumbled right here and they plopped back on the bed, doing what they do best.

Outside, Scott was crying he wrote a note and placed the ring outside Jean's door. In the morning Jean found it and laughed at him, yeah right like I would marry him, but she did feel a little sorry.

"O well I'm over it!"
