Please, remember that I'm French so I had to translate the whole fic before making correct it (thanks to ET and Double27) and mistakes always goes through.

Thanks for the ones who have reviewed : Diaz, Mrs. Jean Grey-Summers, Aimtbj, Lexan and the unknown reviewer !!

Lexan: sorry, but it was long, the correction of the translation wasn't advancing and I had to finish my novel at this time…

I wasn't the one who should have written the reunion part, so excuse me for the sappy thing.

Remember, the more reviews I get, the sooner I want to post :-)


Hank smiled and took a chair, which he drew near the bed for taking care of his patient more easily.

- "It risks to hurt you when I'll remove the bandages because the blood which has dried may have adhered the stitches at the gauze" he warned her as he was about to undo the right one.

- "That doesn't matter" answered Jean, having kept the bond with Scott wide-opened, whose one was breathing sweet words to her until she heard…

And oh shit ! I've missed the right corridor !

Jean couldn't hold a burst of laugher at Hank's greatest surprise because he was justly afraid to have hurt her by removing completely the bandage.

- "That's not the kind of reaction I was expecting, but that perfectly suits me" joked Beast.

- "No, it's not that, it's Scott" smiled Jean "He…he has lost his way"

That's your fault, you're occupying all my thoughts she received, which made her smile again.

Hank carried on the medical care, suspecting well that the two young people might use their bond for not breaking the contact.

- "It's a pleasure to see you smile and laugh again Jean" he said by ending to change the second bandage.

When he looked up at her, he saw that she had become serious again and he understood the reasons when she declared :

- "Hank, I…I wanted to thank you for having saved my life…"

Beast didn't make the obvious remark that, if they had brought back Scott without having saved her, he would without any doubts have rejoined her in the days which would have followed, but was contented by the clichéd answer accompanied by a smile :

- "You don't have to thank me Jean, after all, I've only done my job"


When Scott came back, Hank left to prepare the infirmary (for the exams he intended to make pass to the young man) as this last one was helping Jean to slip on the clothes he had brought for her –lingering a little in the task– before going to rejoin him with the telepath.

So, one hour after their waking, the young couple made his way to the great dining-room where they were welcomed by a solid twenty students. The Professor having expressly asked to them not to ask question to Scott about his sequestration or to Jean about her stay at the med-bay, the students didn't disobey and respected the private-life of their mentors. Only the older students suspected what might have happened to Jean and this even if Rogue and Bobby hadn't said anything and that nothing could be seen – the long sleeves hiding the bandages– except for a certain tiredness ; which one was also shared by Scott.

The couple warmly thanked Bryan, without who they couldn't have found themselves again, and forbid him at perpetuity to under-estimate his powers and their utility, which Professor Xavier approved, delighted to see that the young mutant seemed proud of himself for the first time since his coming.

As they were all about to reach for a croissant, a cup of coffee or hot chocolate, Jean didn't sit down immediately but asked for the attention of everyone ; Scott, settled just near her, at the table, had kept her hand in his.

- "I wanted to speak to all of you to apologize for my behaviour for the past few days, because I am aware I've been a real bitch …" she began, receiving understanding smiles or comments saying to her that she hadn't to apologize "No, really, I'm bent on turning over a new leaf" she said before going on "It was stronger than myself, I thought having lost everything –she felt Scott squeezing briefly her hand and answered to it–. Maybe I shouldn't have reacted like I did, but I did it. I want you to know that I'm really sorry for all I could have done or said and for the consequences which it might have resulted. There is a rumour saying that some young students –and in particular the new recruits– were beginning to fear me, so I hope I'll be able to re-establish confidence terms and like it erase their fears in order to show them that, in general, I haven't teeth so sharp…"

Some students blushed. She gave them a smile, one of the first that they saw as regards the most recent students.

and thanks to the four of you, who, despite my bad temper, had persisted in wanting to help me sent Jean by telepathy at Professor Xavier, Ororo, Hank and Logan before ending out loud "Well, I know that's only words, but I was bent on pronouncing them"

She was about to sit down next to Scott but, this last one seeing the things otherwise, passed his arms around her waist –in order not to stretch her by the hand for not hurting her– and made her sit on his kneels.

Where did you intend to go ? she heard through their bond before two lips laid on hers in a tender kiss.

She closed her eyes and passed her arms around his neck, despising the reactions of some students.

You liked it ? so let me know it by reviewing please :-), the more I get the faster I post…
