Ready to see who's in the bed?? This will be my last chap. until my next story, The Runaway Returns. So, be ready!

Chapter 9: Don't Die On Me!

Ben and Reed fell silent and looked at her sadly. Jenny slowly got up and walked over to the bed and froze when she realized who it was. His blonde hair was madded up and his eyes were covered with a white piece of cloth.

"Angel? Baby? No." she whispered the last word and slowly walked over to his bed and sobbed. He was asleep and breathing normaly.

Jenny looked at her family and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Ben walked up to her and placed his hand on her shoulder. "Honey, he's...blind." Jenny looked at him, her eyes held all the horror that she possesed, and caused her to sob even more. She put her head on the bed and held Angel's hand.

"Angel...I love you, I love you with all of my heart, please.. please...wake up for me baby...so I can talk to you!"

A groan ecasped from his lips. "...hello.. is this...Jenny?" he asked in a muffled voice, raising his hand to his forehead.

"Yes, this is her...oh Angel, I didn't think-"

"Jenny? You-you're alive? I was so worried!" Angel sat up and held out his hands. Jenny smiled and gave him a hug. Ben smiled and started to walk out of the room, followed by Kit and Reed.

"I'm glad Angel's o.k., besides being blind," said Kit, walking slowly down the hall.

"Yea, but he won't stay here for long," said Reed, while looking forward as Ben and Kit stared at him, shock covered their entire faces.

"What do you mean, 'he won't stay here for long?" asked Ben as a worried look crossed over his face.

"You know what I'm talking about, Ben. It's where he's blind, he'll have to go to a school to learn how to read even though he's blind and all that stuff."

Kit looked at her dad with sorrow. "She's not going to like that... you know."

Reed took a deep breath. "It's either he lives a new life, or he can't do anything when he's older."

---------------------

About three hours later, when everybody knew that the girls were o.k., and when everyone but Jenny and Angel knew that he would have to leave soon, everything was back to normal. Storm was outside, where Professior X's grave was, on her knees. She was talking to him, even though he was dead.

She looked where it said his name and said, "I wish you were here...to comfort Jenny about Angel's journey. (sigh) It would be so much easier..."

"Yes it would."

Storm turned around to see Logan walking towards her. He kneeled down beside her and stared at the stone. "Sometimes at night, before I go to sleep, I ask my self, 'Why did Jean have to be like this?' Then I would say, 'She'll come back; she's the phoenix, she reborns from her ashes, she can never die." Storm looked at him with amazment from his speech. He looked at her and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? Are you amazed (Storm starts to laugh)?"

"Yes, I am! How did you know that?"

"I had a talk with him one time about that...that's where I learned it."

Storm looked down at the grass and sighed again. "I wish Jenny didn't have to go through this."

"I know...You know, I'm going to miss that kid. He was pretty cool."

"Yep."

--------------------

"HE HAS TO WHAT?" Jenny yelled as Logan told her the news. "He can't go...he just can't!"

"I know what you're-"

"NO YOU DON'T! DID ANYONE YOU CARED ABOUT VERY MUCH HAD TO GO AWAY?"

"YES!" Jenny looked at him wide eyed at his yell.

Logan sighed and sat down on the couch beside her. He looked around the living room and said, "When I was little, I was taken away from my mom. I tried to fight them back but couldn't."

"Who's them?" she asked him as sorrow came over her face.

"The army...they wouldn't let even let me say good-bye...I was in the army for a while, but as soon as I was old enough, I ran away. They never came looking for me. Then, a couple years later, I found myself here."

"Wow...that must've been, horrible," Jenny said as Logan nodded.

Jenny thought for a moment then looked into his eyes. "What am I going to do? I can't...I mean...I love him. Did you have someone you loved very much but had to go?"

"Yea, but I'm not going to talk about that," he grinned at her but she didn't smile back.

They sat there for a while, thinking about what they just talked about.

Then Jenny asked, "Did you tell Angel yet?"

"No. Can you do that for me? He has to leave the day after tomorrow."

"Yea, I guess I will." Logan put his hand on her shoulder and patted it. "You'll do fine." As soon as he was out of earshot, she said, "That's where you're wrong."

She got up and walked down the hall. She was getting ready to visit Kit when Kit suddenly came out of a door and looked around.

"Hey Kit. What's up?"

Kit looked at her and grinned, then it faded away. "If Dad asked you where I am. Well, you never saw me..(wink) I'm going to be in Pete's room, o.k.?"

"Yea sure, whatever you say."

"Thanks a bunch! Gotta go!" She ran off down the hall and turned a corner. Jenny grinned and shook her head. Then, remembering what was supposed to be done, her grin turned into a look of sadness. She walked slowly down the hall and stopped at Angel's door. She looked at the door for a second then started to knock. She heard some noises then he said, "Come in."

She slowly opened the door to see Angel sitting on his bed. "Baby, can I talk to you for a minute?"

He turned her way and smiled. "Sure, hon'. Come here so I can know where you're at."

Jenny walked over to his bed and sat down. Angel looked at her and smiled. He still had the cloth his eyes and around his head. She felt sorry that she had to tell him about the horrible news.

"So what's up?"

"I wish I didn't have to tell you this...I really don't."

"What is it? What's wrong...you don't love me anymore?"

"No...not that, I will always love you."
"Then what is it?"

Jenny looked at him with tears in her eyes. "You...you...have to go...the day after tomorrow! But I told him that I don't want you to go! But you have to because you're blind!"

Angel's grin went away as he looked down at the floor. I...I can't go! Crap! I hate this! Just because I'm blind! "Who's 'he'?"

"Logan."

"I...what...what am I going...what are we going to do?"

"I don't know...I just don't know." She sobbed for a while, then Angel grapped her and held her tight. They stayed that way for a long time, then finally, Jenny said, "Well, what are we going to do? I'm not going to break up with you! I won't!"

He thought for a moment then said, "Maybe, I'm not saying I want to, we...have to break up."

She looked up at him and said, "I don't want to break up with you..."

"No matter where we go, no matter if we're married to someone else, I'm still going to love you. Are you going to love me no matter what?"

"Yes I am, I will always love you."
