Scott opened his eyes, he saw the others awake "Hey Scott, did you sleep well?" Kitty asked. "Not really, how long was I asleep?" Scott asked.
"About an hour and a half, its one in the morning right now" Rogue said. After a long period of time a nurse came out "Scott Summers?" She said.
"Right here!" Scott said loudly. He stood up and greeted the nurse "My name is Lauren, I need to speak with you about Jean" Lauren said.
"Is she okay! What's wrong with here?" Scott asked. "Well I'm not going to lie to you, Jean is in the recovery room, she had been stabbed but fortunately the knife missed the major internal organs." Lauren said.
Scott nodded for her to go on, "She has a major concussion on her head and a gash above her left eye no brain damage though, Mr. Summers all this will heal in time but I think you need to speak to Jean about counseling" Lauren said.
"Counseling? For what Jean isn't crazy!" Scott said sternly.
"No, I know she's not, she needs to get through this and that's either by talking to you or another woman about what happened." Lauren said.
"Is she pregnant?" Scott asked. "We wont know until the results come in, and until they do we wont know if she has any diseases either" Lauren said.
"When can we see her?" Scott said. "I guess now but only one of you can see her now" Lauren said.
"Go ahead Scott, we can wait besides she needs you" Rogue said. Scott followed Lauren to the recovery room. Then Lauren left, Scott sat down next to Jean who was sleeping peacefully.
He brushed the hair out of her face "Your so beautiful, how could I let this happen to you?" Scott whispered.
The beep of the machines made his heart ache even more, he took her hand and squeezed it gently. He felt a squeeze back, he heard a slight mummer "Unh…where…" Jean mumbled.
"Jean? Can you hear me?" Scott said. Jean turned her head; her vision became clear
"Scott? Where am I?" Jean said. "Your in the hospital, Jean thank god your okay" Scott said.
She touched his face as a tear fell from his eye he grasped her hand gently and held it tight.
"I can't believe I let him…" Scott cut Jean off "Don't you dare blame yourself for this, it wasn't your fault and you didn't deserve it I love Jean and I will never leave your side again" Scott said sternly.
"Oh, Scott I'm glad you're here" Jean said. He leaned over to hug her, she felt secure in his arms again.
There was a noise from behind them, "Sorry to interrupt" Lauren said. "It's fine" Scott said. Lauren left as the others came in, Kitty hugged Jean tightly followed by Rogue and Kurt, and Logan stood in the room.
"Glad to have ya back kid" Logan said. "Thanks" Jean said.
"How are you feeling?" Rogue asked. "My head hurts a little other than that I'm okay" Jean said.
"So when can you come back with us?" Kitty said.
"Not until Friday" Jean said. "That's three days!" Kurt said. "Jean if you want to talk to me at all just come into the infirmary any time" Xavier said.
"Thanks professor" Jean said. "Okay everybody, visiting hours are over I'm afraid you'll have to leave" Lauren said. Everyone said their goodbyes and left the room eager for the day Jean could return.
