Chapter five
I wake up again to find my self lying down on a firm chest, I look up to see my Daddy's sleeping face I quietly crawl off and take note that I am now back in my infant body as I attempt to stand up only to fall off the bed, hard, I feel tears well up to my eyes and sniff and wipe them away, I crawl away carefully, only to be faced with the dilemma of opening the door, my face suddenly lights up as I am struck with an idea focusing I use telekinesis to quietly open the door just enough for me to crawl through. I slip out quietly unnoticed by the only other occupant of the room who remained blissfully unaware as he quietly snored. I quiet crawled down the long hall filled with doors deciding to explore I choose random passageway to crawl through and continue my adventure. I was startled by a sound of surprise and turn around to find a brown hairede teen , I look up at him curiously with wide innocent eyes and tilt my head to the side, "Vhat brings you here? who are you chère?" he asks picking me up. "My name is Ava, whats yours?" i ask. "I be Remy", he replies. "Nice to meet you", I return politely. "you too chère. " he answers, now where should I take you?", before I can reply the sound of a door slamming and Daddy shouting was heard in the hall, "Ava! Where are you Pup?!" he shouted frantically the sounds of running getting louder as he panicked. "That is our cue eh chère?" I nod, and he walks with me in his arms out into the hall where a crowd was formed attempting to calm Logan down, "mi ami! I have someone for you!" Remy exclaims catching Logan's attention, Logan perks up makes his way to us and grabs me from Remy checking me over for injuries, "Sowy Daddy I was looking for somewhere to play and then I met Remy he's weally nice, i didn't mean to scawe you", I say tears welling in my eyes, "Aw its ok Pup, don't cry", he says wiping my tears, he turns to Remy, "thanks for bringing her back to me kid". "It is no problem mi ami" Remy replies seemingly subdued, as was everyone in the hall, they seemed to gape more so when Professor walked out of his room and turned to me, "I am so glad you are alright Ava, I want to thank you for what you did for me, i cant thank you enough i am eternally grateful" Chuck says, I turn and smile up at him, "No problem Chuck" I say innocently, everyone cracked up. "She is definitely yours" chuck says between laughs. I look around confused Daddy calls him chuck whats wrong with me calling him chuck too? Daddy introduces me to each and every one of his students, they're are nice although the girls and some of the guys seem to see me as a cute little puppy and kept awing. Logan takes me to the kitchen and pulls out a chair and seats me on his lap he growls at anyone who seems to get to close or ask to many questions, "what would you like to eat pup?" he asks, as a plate is placed in front of us, I take note that i appear to be the only person present under the age of sixteen, huh must be because Mutants are no longer being born, not since 2000. "Im not picky I'll eat whatever you do." I reply. "Any allergies?" he asks concerned, understandable he's new to the whole parent thing, I'm also new to this as well especially all the attention. "Um a few…." I reply, "what kinds" he asks. "Egg, peanuts, and whey." i reply reluctantly. "eggs and whey are intolerances while peanuts is an allergy", i explained. "umm can you eat toast?' he asks, I nod and he passes his to me and I munch on it happily. chatter around the table resumes and we are no longer the centre of attention. "so, Logan, who's the lucky girl?" Storm i think it was asked he glared at her and let out a growl holding me close, "Her mother is dead", he answers seemingly preparing to comfort me. Everyone freezes, "I'm so sorry" she says and i can tell she is. "why are you sorry? you didn't kill her", i ask confused. "she was killed?" she asked slowly. "uh huh' i said nodding, " but don't worry the scary man is gone." i say trying to comfort her. Her eyes shine with sympathy, "don't worry mommy is right here" i say pointing to my heart. everyone remains quiet and I squirm in discomfort at the blatant staring which was starting to creep me out. Logan picking up on my discomfort glared and barked ,"what are you all gapping at!", that snaps them out of it real quick. Everyone finishes breakfast and clean up begins, Logan takes me back to hjis room and sets me on his bed, seemingly contemplating something, 'How do i give my girl a bath?' i hear a voice say, recognizing it as Logan's thoughts, i freeze time and change into a one piece swim suit with my ducky floatys which were stored within my mind and unfreeze time. "swim?", i ask excitedly, i love to swim.
"sure pup, just let me change ands we'll head to the pool out pool." he says smiling down at me. He grabs a swimsuit and heads to the bathroom changing quickly. "Swim, swim swim!", I exclaim giggling excitedly, as he carried me out to the pool. He sets me down next to the pool and he seems to contemplate something catching on I force my self to age to year the swimming suit adjusting to my new size and i toddle to the poolside and jump in my floatys keeping my head above water. Daddy smiles and gets in treading water next to me, I start to play with the water splashing around and giggling like the little kid i am, About two hours later i let out a yawn rubbing my eyes, Logan picking up on the action swims over to me and picks me up pulling me out of the pool, "come on pup, lets get you to bed" he says. Placing me down on his bedroom floor. "Bath time?" i ask innocently inwardly smirking at my successful plan. "of course" he replies, leading me to his bathroom, seemingly at a loss of what to do i point at the tub and he seems to get the message filling it with warm water and bubbles, the water stops and he turns to me and appears lost, i giggle slipping of the swim suit and jumping in making a rubber ducky appear i start to play, after realizing he has no idea what to do , i sigh and make a bottle of baby shampoo and some appear with a wash cloth and brush, setting the brush aside i set to work i am well aware i need a bath they are not exactly abundant on the street. I begin by scrubbing myself, Then start rubbing the shampoo in my hair giggling i return to playing with the bubbles breaking out of his stupor Logan pulls up his sleeves and finishes up rinsing me off, he wraps me in a large warm towel and sets me on the floor, draining the tub he turns to me and blinks owlishly seemingly lost once again. I smile and hand him the brush, he attempted to fix my hair but seemed to lack any luck. i sigh taking the brush from him and making some clothes appear he attempted to dress me but i think he needs some practice, i giggle and smile up at him, knowing that he felt bad i hugged him, "its ok Daddy you just need practithe practiththe practise" i smile at my small accomplishment in linguistics. "But you probably need a teacher" i finish, smiling at him brightly. He smiles at me and says, "i'll be right back." and leaves the room and i seat my self on his bed smiling sweetly and swinging my legs, Daddy returns with one of his students and fellow teachers in tow, Kitty Pryde and Jean Gray nice girls, they both burst into laughter when they spotted me. Daddy growled, "can you two just fix her", he asked gruffly, i frown"im not broken Daddy i remind him like the good girl i am, but the teen and woman bust into laughter, "its not funny" i pout dramatically causing the two of them to laugh harder, Daddy let out a long suffering sigh and the two girls slowly came to their senses and set to work fixing my clothes and hair they pulled my blond hair into two ponytails, the girls begun admiring their work gushing about how cute i look, Daddy begun showing them out, "Mr. Logan you should let us and the girls take her shopping!" exclaimed Kitty, at my look of horror he let to a gruff we'll see and slammed the door in their faces. He ran to me and engulfed me in a hug lift ing me and placing me on his hip, "Daddy?'i ask, he hmms, "I really hate shopping." He chuckles, "Me too" he replies full heartedly. He places me on his bed and tucks me in, kissing me on my forehead, I smile sleepily and drift off.
