Chapter 22

The sun shone through the sky in rays of golden color. The clouds were scarce and the snow sparkled like diamonds.

I opened my eyes with a squint, the sun shone through my window landing directly on me. I covered my head with my blanket and snuggled deeper into the warmth.

"Get up!" Logan shouted as my door thrust opened and banged against the wall.

I was so scared that I fell from my bed and got tangled in all of my blankets.

"What the hell!" I yelled. I was still half asleep as I sat on the floor, glaring up at Logan through half shut eyelids.

"Get up." he said.

"And what for may I ask?" I asked annoyed.

"It's time for breakfast and the professor wants to see you." he said with a smug smile.

"Your enjoying this aren't you?" I said.

"Every minute Pixie." he said.

I growled at him as I tried to crawl out of my blankets. It had been three weeks since he admitted to me that he loved me and every moment since then had been perfect. We hardly ever argued and when we did, it was usually over something stupid. We spent our mornings together starting with breakfast and then a quick walk around the school to make sure everything was safe and secure. Then I would go down with Jean or to the professor while he went and taught gym class and danger room simulations. We would then have lunch together, somewhere off away from everyone. After that we would return to our previous jobs and stay there until 6:00. After that we would go and have dinner and then spend the rest of our evenings together, doing who knows what. Things felt so right with him and I wondered how long it would last.

I dragged myself up from the floor and went to my closet to get something to wear.

"Do you know what he wants me for?" I asked Logan.

"Maybe." he smiled.

"You know this cockiness of yours is really starting to annoy me." I growled.

"You need to stop growling sweetheart. It doesn't suit you." he growled back as he stood behind me, lowering his head to my neck.

"Well then maybe I need to stop hanging around you then, huh? You're a bad influence Logan."

He whipped me around and pushed me against a wall.

"You don't seem to think I'm a bad influence." he said getting closer.

"Only when you do certain things." I smiled coyly.

"Like what?" he asked getting closer than he was before.

"I think you know." I whispered.

His lips met mine and all thoughts of conversation went out the window. His kisses were absolute. Never leaving you unsatisfied. Everything he did never left you leaving unsatisfied.

He pulled away when there was a cough at the door.

"Uh, Pixie the professor is asking for you." interrupted Scott.

"Buzz of Scooter." growled Logan.

"Logan I am just the messenger." said Scott.

"Well then you should be shot." said Logan.

"Logan! Knock it off." I said. "I'll be right there Scott."

"Alright." said Scott with a smile.

I smiled back as he turned around and walked down the hallway. Logan looked between me and Scott.

"What's going on between the two of you?" he asked.

I rolled my eyes. "Nothing." I said as I searched through my closet for something to wear.

"Didn't look like nothing. I saw those glances." he said.

"Well then I guess we're discovered! I was trying to keep it a secret but I just can't keep anything from you now can I." I said.

"What are you talking about! Do you have something going on with Scott?" he demanded.

I turned around and could see the anger practically steaming from his ears.

"Oh come on, do you really think I would have anything to do with Scott? He's too strict, I don't know. He's annoying."

"I'll have to agree with you on that one." said Logan.

"Look," I said walking up to him, "You are the only annoying man I can stand to be around, so far."

He grinned. "Well I'm glad. For a minute there you had me fooled. My pride was seriously gonna be hurt if any of that was true."

"Don't worry. You don't have any pride that should get injured." I smiled.

"Shut up." he said. He kissed me long and hard before pulling away. "Go and get into the shower. I'll meet you in the professors office."

"Okay." I smiled. I walked around him and towards the bathroom, not before accepting a slap on my butt from Logan. "Ow!"

"You're just too cute." he said.

"I hate you." I said. I walked into the bathroom and shut the door, not before giving Logan a small smile and a wave.

I got done with my shower pretty quickly. I got dressed and dried my hair. I let my wings out, since they hadn't been free since last night. I slipped on my flip flops and walked towards the professors office.

I knocked on the door and received a warm smile from Storm as she opened the door.

"Hello." I said to her.

"Ah, Pixie, so glad you could join us. Please, have a seat." said the professor.

I walked into his office and sat down on the couch, next to Logan.

"What's up?" I asked.

"Pixie, how would you like to be one of the X-Men?" he asked.

I sat stunned. I had never thought that this would ever be asked towards me.

"Really? Are you serious?" I asked.

"Yes I am. I think, and so has everyone else, that your powers have grown impeccably fast, and that you are able to harbor them without even thinking about it. I believe you are able to do this, but it is up to you." he said.

I took a deep breathe. This was a big step. Was I really ready to become an X-Men? Sure I've been here for at least four months, and my mutation was completely under control and I knew how to handle it, but was I ready to fight? To help protect others?

I felt a gentle squeeze on my hand and noticed everyone looking at me. I looked over towards Logan whose hand was holding mine.

"Are you?" he asked. I looked over to the professor.

"Yes." I said.

"Wonderful! I am so glad that you have accepted. Now, since we have a new member, Jean, Storm, I would like you to take Pixie here with you on your next assignment." he said.

"What?" I said.

"Don't worry. It is only a small mission. Nothing to worry about. How about we all converse down in the meeting room, let us say, in half an hour?"

We all nodded and left the professors office. We all dispersed to do our own thing before we were supposed to meet.

"You alright?" Logan asked me.

I turned to look at him. "Yea, it's just that, wow, I didn't think I would be starting so soon."

"Yea, well, it is only a small mission, nothing dangerous at all. You guys should be in and out as quick as ice. Come on, I have something to show you."

He grabbed my hand and led me down into the basement. He led me to where the suits were hung and stopped me in front of a casement that read 'Pixie' on the bottom.

"This is mine?" I asked pointing my finger towards the suit.

"Yep." he said.

"But I just agreed to,"

"The professor has a way of knowing things before they actually happen. So he decided to have this made for you before hand." said Logan.

"Ah." I said taking my finger down. "So he knew all along I would agree to this?"

"Pretty much." said Logan.

"Gotcha." I said.

"Come on, it's almost time for the meeting."

He grabbed my hand and led me towards the meeting room. I had no idea what I was in store for.

Hello! I hope everyone had a fabulous christmas. This chapter seems a bit iffy, but i need to figure out some things for the next few chapters, so i thought i would add this in there for a spacer or something. Let me know what you think!!
