Chapter Three

Logan was up early, practicing in the danger room. He was itching to hold an early morning danger room session, but the Professor told him to let the students sleep in for one Saturday. Once Logan finished, he grabbed a cup of coffee and walked upstairs, to see if any of the students were up early. Probably not, he thought. There rarely were any students up at 7:00 am anyways.

As he paced down the hallway, he noticed that Jean's door was wide open along with Scotts across the corridor.

"This doesn't smell right," Logan grumbled. He snuck into Scott's room and noticed it was empty. His bed was all ruffled, but unoccupied.

"Damn kids..." Logan knew at once where Scott was. He left his room and closed the door behind him. Good thing he was the one that found this out first, or the mansion would be filled with rumors by 10:00 am! Logan would never here the end of it. He shuddered at the thought.

He finally brought up the courage to peak into Jean's room; he held his breath and snuck in. Logan was expecting just about anything.

Jean was there all right, and so was Scott. He was wrapped around Jean and she looked pretty happy, snuggled into his chest. They were both fast asleep, showing no signs of wakening. Logan sighed, relived that he found them with their clothes on. I guess they wouldn't do that so soon, Logan thought.

Hey Chuck, Logan sent a telepathic note to the Professor There's a Kodak moment up here if you wanna take a peak.

He waited outside the room for Xavier. Soon enough, the kind old man appeared on his wheel chair, smiling happily. Logan didn't smile back.

"Yes, I am aware that Scott paid a visit to Jean this morning," Xavier said quietly as he rolled into the room. He smiled when he saw Scott and Jean happily snuggling together in the bed. "What would they do without each other?"

Logan just growled to himself and left the room, leaving Professor Xavier to watch over his eldest students.

----------------------------------------------------------

Scott had been awake for a while, but he didn't move from his position in bed. He was savoring every last moment he had, hoping he would get to do this again. He had already kissed Jean on the head several times, and he was just about to make it one more until Jean began to stir in his arms.

"Good morning beautiful," Scott said with a smile, seeing her eyes flutter open. She shifted a bit upwards, not wanting to leave his arms quite yet.

"Hi," she uttered out and stared into his ruby shades. She hardly noticed those anymore, only when he was about to blast something or somebody.

"Feeling better?" He asked, shifting his arm so he could touch her face. She smiled, which meant a 'hell yes' to Scott.

They stared a little while longer until Scott leaned forward to kiss her on the cheek. He pulled back a bit, noticing that he wanted more. He cupped her cheek and Jean tilted her head back.

Oh god, Jean thought. He's going to kiss me!

Scott leaned in for the kiss until they heard a:

"LIKE, OH MY GOD!"

Scott and Jean gasped and pulled apart at once. Scott rolled accidentally off the bed, taking half of the covers with him. Jean looked up to see Kitty staring in aw over the two lovers.

"I was just seeing if Jean was awake," Kitty gasped out. "I guess I was interrupting something!" Kitty giggled hysterically and fled, phasing through the wall on her way out.

Fuck, thought Scott, there goes my chance! He sat up from the floor and looked at Jean who was looking stunned.

"No use for such language, Mr. Summers!" she uttered out. She could obviously sense him swear. She looked at him back and began to laugh.

Scott sighed and grinned. "Well, were going to be the talk of the mansion, now!"

"No kidding," she giggled out as Scott climbed back on the bed and began to tickle her. She tried to pull away, but Scott pressed on, tickling her tummy. Nothing more happened, much to Scott and Jean's dismay. They couldn't risk being caught again.

---------------------------

Jean was the first one out of the room and into the kitchen. She felt that sooner or later, she was going to have to face the rest of the students. She quietly waddled across the cool tile floor, towards the fridge. She sensed a rush of excitement waft off of Kitty, Kurt, Amara, Bobby as she stepped into view.

"Good morning," Jena said pleasantly and innocently. She smiled and watched the rumor-hungry students go wild.

"What were you guys doing?!"

"You guys looked so, like, cute!!"

"Were they kissing?!"

"Are you guys together now?!"

"What about Duncan?!"

"I totally saw this coming!"

"Ja, me too!"

"Everyone did!"

Jean sighed and ignored the futile rumors. She opened the fridge, grabbed an apple and left the kitchen without taking any notice in the questions that were flown her way. As she walked up the stairs with her head down, she bumped into Scott.

"Oops, sorry," she muttered out, her mouth full of apple. She immediately felt a rush of excitement when she saw it was Scott. She muffled out something and blushed.

"Don't talk with your mouth full," Scott said jokingly. "How is it in the kitchen?"

Jean swallowed hard and gasped out: "Horrible. Everyone knows and that's why I'm going back up to my room..."

Scott groaned. He looked around to see if no one was spying, then he snatched the apple out of her hands and took a quick bite.

"Hey!" Jean protested and reached up for the apple, which was held slightly out of her reach. "I was eating that!"

"Well, I don't want to go down there and get something to eat, so I'll just eat your food!" Scott laughed evilly and waved the apple above her head.

Jean used her telekinetic strength to yank the apple from his hands so it could fall back down to her. She sneered at him and made a mad dash to run away.

"Not so fast!" He boomed, projecting a deep voice. He grabbed her arm and pulled her down to the ground. She growled fearlessly and pulled him down with her, soon they both were rolling on the ground, laughing and growling at each other.

The other students had gathered below the stairs to watch this. It was strange behavior, especially for the two oldest kids. Everyone giggled quietly, enjoying the sight of stupidity before their eyes.

Jean used some telekinetic force to push Scott against the carpet. She held her hands in front of her and panted out: "I win, buster!" Scott grunted and struggled against her mutant ability, showing no signs of success.

Jean's mind cleared and she sensed that they were being watched. Her eyes widened and she released her hold on Scott.

"Damn it," she cried out as she saw most of the mansion watching their little fight. Her face flushed and she took off down the hallway, away from the people.

Scott noticed all the people after Jean stepped out of the way. He paused for a moment, seeing all of there faces in aw. Then he chuckled and said: "What? It's just a friendly fight!" Without waiting for a reply, Scott jumped up after Jean.

Scott sighed and closed the door to Jean's door after him. He turned and smiled apologetically to her. She put her hands on her hips.

"We shouldn't have done that," she said sternly, "it was stupid, childish, and it gathered too much unwanted attention."

"I know," Scott walked up to her and took her hands. "I'm sorry."

"Don't be sorry," she smiled and squeezed his hands, "It was fun anyways!"

"I know..." He grinned back. Okay, this is it, he thought. I'm going to ask her out. He got nervous almost instantly at the word 'ask her out.'

Jean could sense he was getting nervous. He's going to ask me to go on a date, she thought.

"So, Jean," he scratched the back of his neck. "You wanna, um, go out tonight? You know, like on a... date?"

"Yes, that would be great..." she uttered out. She lost her words nervously. Was this right? Should they be going out?

Scott mentally sighed in relief. That was hard enough, okay, set a time for the date! Set a time!

"Does seven sound good?" he spat quickly.

Jean nodded and smiled, trying to break the tension. Why were these things so hard to do? She thought.

"Okay, I'll see you then!" Scott bent forward and kissed her on the forehead and took his leave. He had a lot of preparing to do if he wanted to make this date perfect.

Jean watched him take his leave and sighed. Wow! A date with Scott!
