Aprilangel413: Hey this is not the last chapter. By the way, five years have passed and everyone now looks like what they did in the professor's vision of the future.
Disclaimer: I don't own X-Men Evolution
Cass stood at the top of the stairs looking down at the entry hall. Alex had stopped by for a week and was now leaving. It was hard to believe that they had been dating for five years, especially with the constant traveling his job required. Alex decided to become a pro surfer, and at a competition about a week agohe got an offer from Nike. He had actually come to Xavier's to try and convince her to come with him, but she said no.
She couldn't leave Xavier's now, not with Genie nine months pregnant and Ororo one month along. Ororo and Logan got married about a year after Genie and Warren did. In fact Warren and her sister's wedding seemed to set off a series of weddings. First it was Logan and Ororo, then Scott and Jean, and then Kurt and Kitty. Remy had asked Rogue to marry him several times, (Nine to be exact.) But she kept saying no. She thought the no touching thing would get in the way. And of course there were the new recruits, Bobby and Jubilee were engaged along with Rahne and Roberto and Tabby and Pietro. She knew Alex wanted to ask her (Genie had told her a while back) but the long distance thing was really putting a strain on the relationship.
That's why he asked her to come with him, Nike was taking him on a world surfing tour where he would compete against the best. But she couldn't go she was in collage now. She was going to be a doctor, and once she graduated she planned one helping Dr. McCoy out with all the other students. Life was perfect. Warren, Genie, and Lizzie had moved in after they found out Genie was pregnant and planned on making their stay permanent. Lizzie still doesn't have any powers but that doesn't stop Logan from teaching her to fight, someday she'll beat him and he'll regret showing her the ways of battle.
Then Genie was taken out of her thoughts when she felt a hand on her shoulder, and a very familiar voice popped into her head.
Go talk to him
"Aren't you on bed rest?" Cass asked as she turned around to face Genie.
At least say good-bye
"I'll go down there if you go back to your room."Cass said crossing her arms over her chest.
Deal
Cass watched as Genie started to leave, then she went down the steps and walked up to Alex.
"Hey." He said as she got closer to him.
"Hi, I just wanted to wish you good luck with the tour." She said trying to look as unemotional as possible.
"Listen Cass, I'm just going into the city and spending the night at a hotel with the rest of the guys on the tour. My plane doesn't leave till 10, if you change your just don't hesitate to come to the hotel or airport." He said handing her the address of the hotel and his fight number.
"I can't go with you, I've got school, and Genie's do any day now, and with Ororo pregnant someone gotta cook who won't kill everybody." Cass said now emotional.
"Ok, well when all that's over give me a call." Alex picked up his bags and walked out to Scott's car.
Cass sighed and turned away from the door and went into the kitchen. There she started cooking up a storm while all Ororo could do was watch as the young women prepared dinner.
A couple weeks passed and Alex was still sending three E-Mails a day to Cass. She would E-mail back and was starting believe Alex when he said that he wasn't choosing his career over her, he was just trying to make a career. She eventually started sending longer and more detailed E-Mails and it was just like old times when he lived in Hawaii with the Masters.
Cass was happy and she showed it, her grades went up, her patience became longer, and was all around a more cheerful person. Hank had even started giving her a bit of responsibility around the med-bay. Even though it was only her second year of collage. She would fix scrapes and cuts and every once and while he would let her help him in his experiments.
But Cass was once again snapped out of her thoughts by someone putting their hand on her shoulder. But this time it was big, blue, and fuzzy.
"Hi, Dr. McCoy. What's up?" She asked.
"I was just wondering if you've ever seen an ultra sound before." He said as he started walking, and Cass followed.
"Just a couple snap shots from Erin and Genie's pregnancies, why?" She said as she caught up to him.
"I thought that you might like to be a consult for Ororo's ultra sound this after noon. You could use the experience." He said making a turn into the elevator.
"Sure, when is it?" Cass asked as she stepped into the elevator.
"Five minutes." Dr. McCoy said as the door closed and the elevator started to move.
"Now?"
"Yes, it slipped my mind at breakfast this morning and then you were at school." He stated as the doors opened to reveal one of the bi-levels that had been officially named the boo boo floor by Lizzie.
They walked down the hall until they reached Dr. McCoy's office. There he slipped on his white coat and picked up a clipboard. Then he handed it to Cass.
"Could you right down our finds of the check up? My writing is chicken scratch on a clipboard, and I'd like to be able to read this tomorrow." Cass nodded and then followed Hank out of the room and down a couple more halls.
They waited outside of an examining room for a couple minutes before Ororo showed up practically dragging Logan behind her.
"Sorry we're late, Logan decided to make the danger session go an extra fifteen minutes." Ororo said as they arrived at the door.
"It's quite fine. I know that you are both busy. This will only take a couple minutes." Dr. McCoy said as he opened the door to the large room. (I know examination rooms are usually small but remember Ororo's claustrophobic)
The four walked in and Ororo hopped on to the padded table. Logan stood in the corner and watched as Hank asked her a couple questions and Cass scribbled things down on to the clipboard. Then Hank listened to her heart and took her blood pressure.
"Ororo you are perfectly healthy women, now let's take a look at that baby of yours." Hank smiled as he walked over to a corner of the room and pulled out a cart with a screen and a keypad on it.
"If you could roll up your shirt a bit." Hank asked Ororo as he pulled out a tube of gel.
He squeezed the tube and the gel fell to Ororo's stomach. He unhooked the hand thing from the cart and Cass turned off the lights. Then he flicked a switch on the cart and put the hand thing to Ororo's stomach. He hit a few buttons on the monitor and soon a mess of static flooded on to the screen.He moved the hand thing around a bit and then stopped.
"Anyone who wants to look at this should come closer." Hank said as he glanced at Logan and Cass.
They both stepped forward. Hank moved the hand thing around a bit more then stopped again.
"Cass, in your best opinion what does that look like." Hank asked as he made a white square appear on the screen to frame what he was pointing at.
"Hmmm…" Cass thought for a moment longer. "I don't know." She admitted
"That's ok. It's better to not know and ask then to not know and pretend you do." Hank smiled and made the square disappear.
Then he turned to Logan and Ororo. "And I'm happy to say that you two are the proud parents of twins."
"What?" Logan asked.
"Twins, two babies." Hank said smiling
"Twins." Said Ororo now in la la land.
"Yes, would you like to tell Charles or should I?" Hank said as he turned the lights back on.
"No, we should tell everyone." Ororo said as Hank handed her a paper towel to wipe off the gel.
Ororo rolled her shirt down and then her and Logan left. Cass and Beast went back to his office to update Ororo's file.
"Wow twins, I can't believe it." Cass said as she looked over Ororo's chart.
"Actually Ororo's age increases the change for a mutable birth, it was something that must not be over looked." He said as he opened his file cabinet.
Cass looked over his shoulder into the drawer.
"By any chance could I take a quick look and Genie's file?" Cass asked putting on her best pouting face.
"No, you're her family. But once you graduate you'll have unlimited access to all my files." He said closing the cabinet and locking it.
"Fine I can wait till she has the kid." Cass said as she got up and left, she had a bit of reading to catch up on anyway.
