One morning, as Jean had just sat on the edge of the bed for getting up while he was about to kiss her into the neck, she was taken by a nausea so sudden that she rushed toward the bathroom, her eyes wide opened, her hand on her mouth, muffling a moan. When she could at least looking up without feeling another heave of her stomach, she felt as floppy as the flannel that Scott passed on her face (a method he had learned from the book she had offered to him, which one he had decided to read progressively) He flushed the toilet and, once she had abundantly rinsed out her mouth, took her into his arms and brought her back onto the bed, laying her against him, using his chest as a cushion for her.
- "Are you feeling better?" asked Scott, worried because of Jean's white appearance.
- "For the moment yes, but it's only the beginning…" she answered, her eyes half closed, as he was running his fingers trough her hair.
- "I'll prepare some breakfast and will carry it to you at bed each morning" announced Scott "I've read that if you ate half an hour before getting up, you'll escape to the nauseas"
Jean smiled, fond by his proposition and the fact of seeing at which point he was putting a lot into this pregnancy.
- "I've used this method, it's effective that's true, but I've never had such nauseas…" she breathed as Scott was now slightly stroking her abdomen by letting her eyes become heavy with sleep.
He watched her fall asleep while he kept telling her how beautiful she was, how much he loved her, and how he would never get tired of holding her into his arms.
Jean spent this third month, pale, sometimes feverish, sleeping, vomiting and adopting an irritable temper.
But when she started the fourth month…
The professors were in the kitchen where Scott had brought the breakfast to Jean some twenty minutes earlier before coming back down. This day was a big one. This morning it wasn't a Jean in messy pyjamas, pale and grumpy who arrived, but a radiant one:
- "I feel like I'm on a little cloud" she announced "It's the first morning in weeks that I've been able to keep my breakfast!"
She briefly but lovingly kissed Scott before adding:
- "Goodbye perpetual nauseas, and long life to the second quarter!"
- "I'm glad to know that you're feeling better" announced Charles Xavier.
- "Yes, some people were beginning to do opinion poll for knowing who, you or Logan, had the worst temper" said Ororo.
- "It's not a question of temper, but of sudden changes of mood provoked by hormones" she justified herself before asking "Who was on the top?"
- "Me" grumbled Logan.
- "That's reassuring, I would never want to compete with you"
- "That's kind of ya Red" he answered.
Ororo entered into the conversation:
- "In any case, at least you'll be able to help me cook again"
- "As long as some scents don't bother me, no problems"
Hank arrived in the room in seeing the young woman, he asked:
- "Have you drank your liter of water Jean?"
- "Yeah, and I can say you that I'm not disappointed not having to go to a clinic and wait…"
- "So, let's go?" asked the Beast.
Scott and Jean shared a glance.
- "Let's go!" confirmed Jean by dragging Scott by the hand to the medical bay where she would have her first scan.
She could have done it alone, but she preferred to ask Beast to take care of that so she could focus all her attention on the screen and on Scott. Yes, this one she wasn't about to live it alone, Scott had sat at her side as soon as she had settled unto the examination table. Their hearts were beating wildly and they had sweaty palms as the young man, took Jean's hand into his.
Hank pulled up Jean's pull and applied the gel at which contact she started.
- "What?" asked Scott.
Jean slightly laughed and squeezed his fiancé's hand into hers.
- "Don't worry Scott, it's just cold, that's all"
- "Fearless leader?" teased Hank it wouldn't surprise me if he insisted to do us a couvades our Cyclops / he thought.
He switched on the monitor and placed the probe on Jean's belly. As for the previous scans the young woman had lived, the sounds of two distinct heartbeats were soon heard. The emotion she felt was all the more overwhelming that it had had been before. She had put down all her mental shields, as had Scott, which allowed them to really share this moment through their bond. The X-Men Leader's, the stoic man, seemed as hypnotized and had stopped to run his fingers through Jean's hair.
The more I get reviews, the sooner I update !
