*******************************************************************
The dawn was bursting into the room when at last Logan awoke from his troubled sleep. Taking in a deep breath and opening his eyes, he heard the sounds of children talking in the hallways just outside his door. Taking a moment to let his eyes adjust to the blinding sunshine, he then looked at the clock and it read past 9AM.
Oh Great! He growled.
Marie was going to kill him.again. Another breakfast appointment he was going to be late for.
He jumped out of bed and went to take a shower to try and erase all evidence of his troubled night. As the droplets of water fell down upon his body in a rhythmetic pattern, allowing his body to relax under the heat and let his mind float as his thoughts drifted to the mysterious woman in his dreams. The look of her in his mind allowed his body to fuse with heat, even hotter then what the shower provided. He could almost remember the feel of her in his arms, the ferocity of the kiss he had given her. The length of him hardened at the thought of making love to this Roe.
Suddenly a pain shot through his head and an image began to appear.
A room, a bed, two bodies entwined in blankets as the two moaned loud as they began to reach climax. Logan's body surged in sweat at the sight. Their love making was ferocious as it was wild and before the pain in his head became unbearable, Logan looked once more at the couple entwined, he suddenly saw himself and the woman with the chocolate eyes as they stared up at her lover her eyes filled with heat and passion before they closed again as her lover rammed into her one final time exploding within her. At that Logan's head exploded and the images shattered into pieces of crystal.
The last feeling Logan had was the pain, as his body collapsed to the shower floor.
Marie looked at her watch and then looked at the cafeteria door. Sighing she began eating her breakfast.
He is late.again. She thought.
It was the third time this week. As she ate her breakfast in silence, the minutes ticked by and her anger and disappointment grew. Where was he?
Bobby, Jubilee and the others of her class started to get up in order to get to class. She looked at the empty seat across from her and shook her head. Her watch read 9:30 and her first class began at 10. Logan may have been late before but he always showed up. Perhaps he had a meeting with the Professor?
Professor? She called out in her mind.
What is it Rogue? Professor asked.
Is Wolverine with you? Have you seen him? He was supposed to have met with me for breakfast but he hasn't shown up yet. Her mind coming up with images that Xavier managed to pick up from her.
Marie heard him chuckle in her mind. No. He hasn't been in to see me, though I would like him to. I have something to talk to him about.
For a moment nothing else was said in Marie's mind as if Xavier was thinking of something.
Just a moment I will see if he is around.
Marie waited patiently for many moments.
"Where is Mr. Logan?" Jubilee asked as she sat down next to her best friend. Bobby and the others had already gone off to class.
Marie sighed and said, "He never showed up. Which isn't like him. Sure he has been late before but never this."
Rogue! The professor said urgently into his mind. Something is wrong. I have already sent Storm. Meet her outside Logan's quarters.
At that Rogue glanced worriedly to Jubilee who gave her a confused look.
What happened to Logan?
"What is it Rogue?" Jubilee broke through her thoughts.
"I don't know. Look Jube, can I talk to you later? Tell Dr. Grey I will get to class as soon as possible. I have to go now." She muttered nervously as she got up from the table, all thoughts on breakfast this morning forgotten. Looking back at Jubilee for a moment, before she ran out of the cafeteria as the reaper was after her.
When at last Logan regained consciousness, his first feeling was a form of pressure on his body. He took a deep breath, his eyes remaining closed as a familiar odour met his nostrils. Who's was it? Slowly he opened his eyes. The room was bathed in artificial lights like the ones he awoken to on the day he first came to the mansion. He was in the medic lab.
How the hell did he get here? The last thing he remembered was taking a shower and then.
With a start he tried to lift himself up but with the pressure on his body it restrained him. Lifting his head he caught a closer look to what or who was restraining him.
Marie's face was buried in his covered chest as gloved hands held his. From the way she was breathing, Logan could tell she had fallen asleep while waiting for him to regain consciousness.
Logan smiled warmly at the kid as his thoughts ran to the first day he saw her. His instinct had come over him when he had first seen the wayward child without a friend or a home. He had seen that look countless of times before. Sometimes, his heart had reflected the same thing what was on her face that day. However both of them now had each other as well as a home and friends.
Home.
Suddenly the image of the girl in his dreams came to life in front of him and the feeling of coming home entered his heart. Who was she? He knew now. Her name was Roe. His wife. They were indeed memories. He had to believe it now. That dream he had was a memory from a lifetime ago.
Slowly he brought up his free hand and gently shook Marie from her slumber. With a start her eyes opened and immediately pushed herself off of Logan. Her eyes immediately sought his and when she saw his deep blue eyes she smiled and her tense face softened and relaxed.
"Shuga'!" she cried her pet name for him.
Logan smiled at that. He hated that name, and had on more then one occasion told her so. All she had done was smile further and continued calling him that. He was anything else but sugar.
Marie immediately stood up and pressed a button that was located on the side panel.
"What happened kid?" Logan grunted from the pillow, his head still aching a bit.
Marie blushed a deep red and then nervously sputtered, "W-w-w-w when you didn't show I asked the Professor to call to you. He sent Storm and I to investigate. We found you in the shower unconscious. That was about 8 hours ago."
At that Logan sat up. "What!"
Before he could say anything else, Xavier entered along with Jean Grey.
"So.Logan I see you have finally decided to rejoin us."
"Yeah I guess so." He muttered under his breath.
Rogue giggled a little and Xavier turned to her. "Well Rogue, Logan is conscious now, I think its time for you to leave. Storm is setting up some after school class for you to catch up from what you missed today. Report to room 23A."
Rogue lifted her eyes and then turned around to Logan to give him a quick kiss on the cheek, before leaving the medic lab.
"Jean can you check on those tests that you performed on Logan and report those findings to me?" Jean nodded her red head as her eyes locked with those of Logan's
"Of course professor. Logan I'm glad your back with us. You gave us all a scare there." Her eyes revealing concern.
In a moment Xavier and Logan were alone. Xavier observed the Wolverine as if contemplating on how to approach the wild animal.
"Care to tell me about what happened?" he asked simply.
"There is nothing to tell. I must have slipped and fell in the shower." At that Logan flinched knowing that was a downright lie and Wheels knew it.
"What about the dreams you have had these past few weeks?" he tried again.
At that Logan's eyes widened in shock. "How did.? Were you spyin' in my head?" Logan began as he became angry.
At once the Professor shook his head. "You know I keep a light telepathic bond on everyone. Right?" Logan hesitated before he nodded once. Xavier continued. "Whatever happened during those dreams, the intensity of those managed to create a backlash along that bond, giving me one intense headache."
"Now, I know you would like to keep your privacy; I can assure you every confidentiality. I am here to help, if you will let me. Now will you tell me what is happening?" At that Wheels became silent, awaiting an answer.
To trust, or not to trust, that is the question.
To be continued.
