Chapter 2
Jean made a sound of content as she walked with Scott hand in hand down the pathway. They had remained silent for the past half and hour and Jean was enjoying every minute of it. She loved to be around Scott. He made her feel so... so happy.
"Where are we anyways, Jean?" Scott said barley above a whisper. He wasn't really taking notice to the surrounding world, only to the beautiful creature walking beside him. He squeezed her hand and waited for an answer.
"I don't know," she replied "I think we're somewhere to the west of the mansion..."
"I thought we were walking east of the mansion," Scott said, his voice filling with concern. He watched Jean put on a serious look, and he burst into laughter. "I was just kidding!"
Jeans face went red. "UGH! You are so...so..." she stuttered angrily "DEAD!"
Scott let go of her hand as he got telekinetically pushed to the ground. "Ouch! I'll get you for that, Jeanie!"
She giggled. Did he just call me Jeanie? No one but my parents ever called me Jeanie.
"Try and catch me first, Cyclops!" And with that, Jean took off in the forest.
Scott smiled and stared after her. God she was so beautiful. He jumped up and dashed after her quickly.
-------------------------------
Logan was waiting in the front hall when Scott and Jean burst through the door. They were gasping for breath and laughing at the same time. Scott had his hands wrapped around her waist, as if he had just caught her. They didn't take notice of Logan until they had calmed down a bit. Logan growled.
"It's two in the mornin," he said as calmly as he could. Professor Xavier had told him to let them get off easily. "Get to Bed!"
"Sorry, Logan!" Jean uttered out before bursting into giggles. Scott began to tickle her. "Stop it! That tickles!"
"NOW!" Logan barked gruffly "before I give you early mornin danger room training!"
Scott and Jean were gone in a flash, running upstairs. Logan frowned. Darned kids were in love, and that prevented him from grounding them!
"Thanks Scott. I really needed to spend some time with you..." Jean said almost bashfully as they stopped outside of their rooms. She looked up at him lovingly.
"Anytime...Jean..." he whispered and stared at her back. They both froze, eye locked. There was nothing else to say, and nothing else to do.
At that very second, it dawned on Jean that she was in love. She was in love with her best friend, no, that was wrong! You're can't just fall in love with your best friend! It's wrong! And yet, she stared back into his eyes, arguing if she should break the eye contact or not.
Scott on the other hand wasn't thinking at all. He was mesmerized by Jean's eyes. He reached up and touched her face, stroking it affectionately. He leaned down and kissed her forehead and whispered in her ear; "good night Jean."
Jean almost fainted as she finally stumbled into her room. Did he just kiss me? Oh, no! Damn it! I'm falling in love with him! She thought franticly. She became overwhelmed and slumped onto her bed. Scott has been her lifelong friend, and she wasn't willing to risk his friendship. Jean touched her burning cheeks and thought; oh god, I'm in love with him!
Scott was in a trance. He wasn't really thinking clearly. He had just kissed her on the head... well, he has kissed her on the head before, but those times were different. He was in love, and he didn't know what to do to get her. All he wanted was to hold her and whisper in her ear adoringly. He wanted to touch her and to... well kiss her. Again and again and again. He needed to do something to get her. But did she love him back? Scott sighed and flopped onto his bed.
-----------------------------------------------------
Scott woke up to moans coming from across the room. He tried to ignore them at first, but as he because gradually more awake, he realized that the groans were coming from Jean's room. He rolled from his bed, letting the cold air hit him. He looked at the alarm clock and it read 3:28 am. He lumbered across the hallway and slowly opened Jean's door.
"Jean?" he whispered. Obviously she wasn't able to hear him. Scott moved over to Jean's side. She was rolling herself back and fourth, looking like she was in pain.
"Jean!" Scott grabbed her by the shoulders and shook them. "Wake up!"
"Leave me alone!" Jean cried out as she sat up. She looked around totally panic stricken and breathless. "Oh God..."
"Sssshhh..." Scott pulled her into an embrace. "It's ok... it's just a dream." He felt Jean trembling in his arms, so he squeezed her tighter.
Jean couldn't really remember her dream, but she knew that she was running away... running away from something. She was so terrified; she didn't want to be alone. It suddenly occurred to her that it was Scott who woke her up and now was holding her. She clasped onto him like glue.
"Oh, Scott... I'm so scared... I was running... running away..." Jean stuttered out.
"It's okay, I'm here..." Scott whispered. He stroked her head gently and set his chin on top of her head. "I'll always be here for you..."
Jean calmed almost instantly after he uttered those words. God, he was so caring, she thought. She could just hold him forever and ever. She sighed and melted into his arms. This is how it should be, she imagined. She loved him with all her heart, and there was nothing to change her mind.
"Thank you, Scott," she whispered after a while passed. She fondled with the back of his T-Shirt, not wanting to let him go.
Scott set her gently on the bed. He wasn't ready to let her go, no yet. He climbed in the bed with her and whispered, "You don't have to be alone, not now, not ever." He draped his arms around her and pulled her into his chest. He loved her so much; it was hard not to be around her.
Jean didn't resist this at once. She loved it. For the first time in a long time, she felt right. She felt safe and satisfied, that's how things should be.
Scott felt Jean fall asleep in his embrace. He waited a moment, and whispered into her ear; "I love you, Jean."
Awwww! Isn't it so cute! Lol. There's chapter two! REVIEW and stay toned for the next chapter!
