Chapter Two: I guess it must be fate.
The small of the cheap bar almost made her hurl, cigar smoke, stale beer, and cheap sex. Laughing to herself silently, this is the perfect place for the Wolverine but Logan had a home. One that she was going to bring him back too. Hearing the catcalls of the men only made her turn up her knows further, she would like them to just try to touch her. Kill them with one touch. Not that she liked doing that, she was still unable to sleep most nights from the memories she had received from Logan.
Where is he professor?
He is here Marie, look to the past and you will find him.
And with that crypt remark the Professor was gone. Sighing she looked around the bar and then she spotted him, he was in the steel cage, leaning against it. Just like he was five years ago. When she had first saw him, the day that had changed her life, for the better. Her glove covered hands shaking. Walking over to the toward the cage she felt someone grab her from behind. The smell of beer strong on his breath. Almost hurling she tried to pull away, but the man was fast and he only pulled her close to him. "Where ya goin' baby doll," he whisky haggard voice said.
Trying to pull away again she let her voice take on a deadly tone, "Ya better let go!" Then she began to unzip her glove, and pull it off. I'm sorry Professor, but I gotta do it. The she whipped around and put her hand on the man's cheek. She heard the catcalls to the men turn to gasps and worry as the molester veins begin to pop out and his breathing began to become labor.
He sensed her, she wasn't far. But that was crazy, why would she be here. Why would she come to sleazy bar? She was even closer now, what the hell!
Then he heard that gasp of patrons in the bar and he looked where they were coming from. She was there, her hand on some guys cheek. The guys veins were popping out of his neck and face. His feet couldn't carry him fast enough to where she was.
His heart pounding he grabbed her but the shoulder's and flipped her around. "MARIE! What are you doing here?"
Logan you should know that.
Whatcha mean wheels?
She cares about you, of course.
Did you lead her here?
Yes, I did, my friend.
Are you FUCKING crazy?
Well, the last time I checked I was perfectly sane. I will let you get back to Marie. Tread lightly, my friend.
Then he was gone and Logan cursed him to high heaven. Focusing back at Marie he couldn't help but shake her. She knew better to be in a place like this, it was dangerous! "What are you doing here!"
"Lookin' for ya," she said softly and cast the man who was trying to get his breath. "He grabbed me!" her voice held the anger that she was feeling and he couldn't help but smile at her. Well, the dude should have known better not to touch his women!
Hold on, his woman? Marie wasn't his. He didn't want her to be his. And she would never been his. So what did it matter. "Well, ya shouldn't be here in the first place!"
"And why the hell not!" he couldn't help but smile at her sass. She was full of fire that was sure, just the way he liked his women. There he went again, claiming her. He had no claim on her!
Grabbing her gloved wrist he dragged her outside, only slowing down to grab his leather jacket and shirt. Then paying his tab. He heard her stumble behind him but he was to angry to care. "What in the hell are you thinking!?" he asked in a loud voice.
He saw he shrink back and he couldn't help but feel like an asshole. "I'm sorry," he said and then felt something turnaround inside him when she smiled. Shaking his head, he continued to drag her, all the way to the motorcycle and handed her the one helmet. "Here kid."
"What about you?" her honey sweet voice said.
"Don't worry," straddling the bike, he felt her do the same, moving up so she could wrap her arms around him. both now gloved again. Her body pressed against his was doing something to his. Part of him was rising, like it hadn't done in months. Which was crazy! He had women in that bar all over him, women who knew their way around a man's body. Women who he could be intimate with! Him and Marie could do nothing about the attraction he felt.
Hold on, attraction! He wasn't attracted to Marie, she was to young. WAY to young.
How old are you Logan?
Wheels, you know I don't fucking know! That is the reason she is not right for me!
What ever you say my dear friend.
Then he was gone. Shaking his head, did professor want them together? Deciding to stop thinking about that, he try anything to make his, Uh other problem lay down. So to say that is.
Marie wrapped her hands around Logan tighter, kinda scared at the speed he was goin' and had to use the bathroom to boot. Tapping his shoulder, then yelling in his ear that she had to use the ladies room, she watched him pull into a diner. "Thank ya," she said softly. Then she saw Logan's face soften.
"I'm sorry kid, I forgot all about you being back there," Marie looked away at his words. Was she that invisible to him?
Professor this was a mistake.
No, it wasn't Marie, you need him, and the X-Men need him.
Nodding to herself, she knew the Professor was right. Looking back at Logan, she gave him a wry smile. "I'll be right back."
"I'll be in the diner, I am hungry and I am sure you are too," he must have heard her stomach grumble and she couldn't help but blush. Giving him a nod she walked back into the restaurant, this was crazy. Well, maybe not crazy, he would never see her anything but a kid, but the X-Men needed her. And this was her chance to prove herself she was ready to be a X-Men too.
