A/N:

Scrawler- I felt really bad about him losing his eye but it seemed more dramatic that way. Mystique confrontation is gonna wait a bit cause I think I've got something more dramatic that involves everyone. I couldn't keep Kurt in a coma for long could I? He's one of the greatest character if not the greatest.

DemonRogue13- Thanks, I didn't like beating him up so much but it makes the story more exciting.

SperryDee- I've updated and soon too and yes we can all feel sorry for Kurt.

The Uncanny R-Man-I have an idea for how Mystique gets her ass kicked, but I pity her too she was under Emma Frost's control.

I've checked out both stories and reviewed them keep up the good work with Wandurt's.

Agent-G- I'm thinking he'll get bits and pieces of his memories back and yeah I have thought about bringing Polaris in. I've wrote her into one story which isn't I haven't brought out yet and expected her to be difficult to write, cause I don't know much about her but I'm thinking about it.

Chapter 16

Arise

Rogue was sat one side of Kurt and Wanda the other side. Rogue had drifted off to sleep but Wanda was watching Kurt very carefully.

"Please wake up Kurt." She was stroking his hand and was exhausted from the little sleep she was getting. "You know I don't do all that emotional crap, don't make me beg. I need you, the twins need you I love you too much, you promised you'd never leave me." Tears were streaming down her face.

Kurt moaned slightly bringing Wanda's attention to his face. "Kurt?"

"Mmm." He moaned again and flicked his one eye open. "I…haven't left yet…have I?"

She jumped up hugging him. "Oh my god you're awake." She cried openly kissing where the bandages weren't on his face.

"Why am in the infirmary?" He asked in a whisper.

"You had an accident." She explained then called for Hank and woke up Rogue.

"Bout time you woke up." She said yawning.

"Aren't you meant to be on your honeymoon?" He asked.

"Yeah, but Bayville's far too exciting to leave for too long." She smiled gently.

"Kurt do you remember what happened?" Hank asked.

Kurt sighed. "Mystique attacked me."

"I don't understand." Rogue brushed her hair back.

"Me neither."

"Why do I have bandages all over me?"

"Hank, Rogue why don't you leave me to talk to Kurt a minute." Wanda asked smiling not giving any clues away for her boyfriend.

Rogue stood up and followed Hank out the room.

"Vanda?" Kurt was getting scared now.

Wanda put her bravest face on and refused to cry.

She sat up on the bed and took his hand. "Kurt, you know I'll always love you."

He nodded but was still worried.

"You've been stabbed you in your stomach, chest and face."

"But…" He trailed off. "I can't feel any pain."

"Drugs." She explained biting her lip a few times. "The scars can be healed through surgery if you want it."

Kurt knew her habit of biting her lip whenever thinking or nervous. "That's not the worst is it?"

Wanda shook her head then kissed him gently. "You lost your…. um left eye."

"My eye?" He reached up to touch the bandages then let his arm drop.

"I still love you." Wanda couldn't stop her tears now.

"Can you just leave me alone for a bit?" He asked with no emotion on his face.

She stood up and left the infirmary for the first time in days.

Kurt sighed deeply trying not to get upset, but he couldn't look at the woman he loved when he felt so pathetic.

Wanda tossed and turned in her bed after promising Hank to try and get some sleep.

But couldn't Kurt refused to speak to her or even see her. She thought he needed space to think but she scared he would reject her. She knew Kurt better than anyone else so she knew he would cut himself out emotionally if he thought he was a burden to anyone especially her.

She sighed and got out of bed. She packed the babies up and took them for a walk.

Kurt couldn't sleep, he had too much thinking to do, and Hank had fitted a glass eye where his old one had been, he said it was supposed to make him feel more comfortable but Kurt wasn't bothered anymore he felt like he was inadequate. How could he be a father to his twins, a lover to Wanda or even a team member to his fellow teammates?

He shifted slightly in his bed, Hank said he could leave the infirmary tomorrow and return to his room. But he wasn't sure, he hadn't been able to speak to Wanda since she told him of his injuries and although he was grateful she had told him he couldn't help feeling he wasn't good enough for her anymore.

Wanda pushed the pram into the kitchen and pulled a tub of ice cream from the freezer. She hadn't noticed anyone walk in behind her.

"Babes keep ya awake?" Logan's voice asked sitting down opposite her.

Wanda shrugged.

"You know he's not speaking to anyone, it's not just you."

Wanda let her gaze drift to the ice cream then pushed it aside. "If he keeps this up he's going to deep himself a big ditch a self pity."

"We know." Logan sighed.

"Hank's letting him out tomorrow maybe he'll see me, and I know the twins would cheer him up." She smiled weakly.

"You have to be positive and don't give up on him."

"Okay comfy?" Wanda asked fluffing his pillows.

"Danke." He said quietly.

"Do you wanna watch the twins do their silly exercises?" She asked sitting on the bed next to him.

"Neine I'm kind of tired." He looked away, so he couldn't see the disappointment in her eyes.

"Okay I'll leave you for a few hours then." Wanda stood up and went to collect the twins.

Scott bumped into Wanda as she was struggling with two baby carriers walking towards the garden.

"Need some help?" He asked then took JT off her.

"Thanks." Wanda smiled at him she knew he felt guilty about what happened.

"How's Kurt?"

"Sleeping."

"At least we know he's resting." Scott said sounding optimistic.

"It wasn't your fault Scott so there's no need to be so nice."

"Am I that obvious?" He asked tickling JT's belly watching him gurgle.

"Yeah." She sat down on the fountain wall.

"Sorry." He shrugged and sat down next her.

"Don't be."

"So how's Kurt really?"

"Besides refusing to connect with anyone emotionally, fine." She paused. "Oh and he hasn't even glanced at the twins since he left on the mission."

"Man." Scott ran a hand through his hair nervously.

"At least he's being civil."  Wanda smiled weakly.

Kurt was asleep when Wanda walked in, it was late and she left the twins with Scott and Jean for the night hoping to talk to Kurt.

She slipped into the bed beside him and watched him carefully he still had a bandage around his stomach and chest, and a singular bandage across his left eye where Hank had fitted the glass eye.

He had one long cut down one side of his face, which had been stitched up.

Wanda sighed, she wanted to talk to him but he looked so peaceful so she simply turned on her side and closed her eyes willing away her tears.
