Disclaimer: Not mine, never will be. My birthday passed on the 22nd and I didn't get them. Poop. Oh well, hope you all enjoy.
A/N: Okay, I noticed that in chapter four in the first chapter I put that the twins already knew who Alex was and in the fifth chapter I had that they didn't. So to let you all know, they really don't know who he is, and you can just disregard that sentence in chapter four. Oh yea, flashbacks in italics.
Logan, Reagan, and Conner sat in Logan's room, the twins frustrated about the whole situation with their mother and her other family. They were pressing Logan to tell them what had happened to make their parents put them up for adoption. He had simply refused unless they wanted to go get their mother to come tell about it with him. They were so upset about the whole thing and so mad at their mother that they didn't even want to see her or talk to her.
Logan had thought about the day he had found out that Jean was pregnant with his children.
They had had a one night stand and Scott had found out. There had been arguments heard throughout the mansion between the married couple for months. Scott wanted Logan's children to be aborted. Jean refused. Logan, for the first time he could remember had sat down and cried the day he was walking by Jean and Scott's room and he had heard a loud slap, presumably Scott's hand across Jean's face. Logan knew by the scream that his first assumption had been correct. He had almost burst through the door and hit Scott with all his force. But, he had heard Jean's voice in his head nudging him away.
The day after he saw her in the kitchen during breakfast, she had one huge bruise on her face, and although there was about a pound of makeup covering it as best it could, it still shone through with sickening green, blue, purple, and black smudges. She was telling everyone that she ran into the door when it was dark because she thought it was open. No one believed her. Especially not Hank aka Beast. He was like Jean's uncle and he was very protective of her. Logan found this out when one day he walked into the kithen to grab a midnight snack and Hank had Scott backed up against a wall.
That was the night before the day Jean had given birth. Conner James Grey 6 lbs 3 oz and Reagan Elizabeth Grey 5 lbs 10 oz were both born and had been cleaned up, placed into their mother's arms, ripped back out minutes after they had been placed there and placed into Logan's grasp. He had stood outside the door of Jean's medical treatment room downstairs at the mansion, his children placed one in each arm and listened. His enhanced hearing let him hear every word Scott was saying to Jean, threatening for divorce, threatening to hit her, threatening to tell Professor X about the affair that had happened on a mission, and although it had been successful it had still been compromised. He of course, had waited until everyone, at least he thought, everyone was out of hearing range. He was wrong.
Jean had finally given in and said that they would tell Logan that either he could take them and leave or they could go up for adoption. Scott wouldn't stand for that. He said if that happened Professor X would figure out what had happened. They were going up for adoption no matter what.
Two days later a black Buick pulled up in front of the mansion and took Logan's two most precious things from his life, even if he couldn't admit they were his.
He looked towards his kids after daydreaming awhile and reached over to them, hugging them. One tear fell from his eye and he vowed to himself to never let them go again. Then he simply said to them to go lay down, set their alarms for 7:00 AM and meet him in the kitchen at 8:00 AM. He was going to show them his secret place.
