Disclaimer: I'm not gonna repeat myself. Look at chapter 1 or 2 or wherever I put it.
A/N: I'm glad you all liked the last chapter, sorry it was rather short but you know... I am a busy teenage girl, does that cover it?
Logan and Jean's heads both popped up when the chidren yelled at them. Logan just laid there expressionless and glanced and Jean. She just smiled sheepishly and asked, "Yea?"
"Oh God," was the reply from both Reagan and Conner.
"I thought you were with One-Eye, Mom? Or did he just bore you and you decided to come for a fix?" Conner asked angrily.
"Conner! Do not talk to your mother that way!" Logan shouted at him, now standing with his hands on hips.
"No Dad! I don't care what kind of excuse she has! I'm not gonna let 'er treat you like trash! It's not fair and I can't believe you're letting it happen!" Conner gave back.
"Yea Dad. Con's right. As much as we both want you and Mom to be together, she has her perfect family and I doubt she's gonna give that up. So, why can't the two of you just be friends and let us go on like that. We don't want either of you hurt. And besides, if you hurt, we hurt," Reagan continued in a calmer more rational voice than her brother.
"I uh, I think I'd better go," Jean said starting to turn from her children, tears in her eyes.
"No Jeannie, wait a minute. The kids need to know that they cannot talk to us like that and that we are the bosses, not them," Logan said keeping his intense glare on the teenagers.
"Logan, they're right. I don't want to hurt you or the kids, and I'm going to if we don't stop acting like a couple of teenagers that can't have each other and sneaking a kiss everytime we get the chance. It's not fair to you or the kids or even me," Jean said her emerald eyes boring into his hazel ones.
"Fine Jean. Whatever. You go along. The kids were right, you should go back to Scooter and Alex. Go back to your perfect family. The kids and I will see you later, maybe," Logan said and walked stiffly back to where the duffel bag was and motioned for the kids to bring the things over. Looking over his shoulder he saw Jean walking back towards the mansion, she cast a weary look over her shoulder and he caught a glance of the tears in her eyes. Shaking his regret off, he packed up his and the children's things back in the duffel bag and then motioned for them to follow him. By the time they reached the top of the first hill he could see Jean at the top of the third, and last, one almost to the mansion. He swallowed deeply and continued on, planning what he and the children would do next, as painful as it would be for some.
When the three of them reached the mansion, he told them to pack their things and meet him in the garage. When Reagan asked him where they were going, he simply told her somewhere where things weren't as complicated.
Within about ten minutes the kids were packed and had decided to leave their things infront of the door to the garage and tell their mother goodbye, without actually telling her they were leaving.
Reaching the door they both sensed she was in, they sighed when they also sensed Scott and Alex. Deciding that they should still see their mother before they left, they entered not knocking since it was a public rec. room. Walking slowly towards their mother, they sat one on each side of her and smiled at her sadly.
"We're sorry Mom. We didn't mean what we said outside we just, well we were thinking about Dad," Reagan chose her words carefully because of the other two occupants in the room.
"Yea Mom. I'm sorry especially. I hope you know that," Conner continued.
"Guys, it's okay. I love you, you know that right?" Jean asked a slight smile forming on her lips.
"Yea, 'course," was the twins consentual answer, followed by, "We love you too Mom."
After hugs and kisses, the twins told her they had to go and she figured they simply were feeling uncomfortable around Scott and Alex. Nodding her approval the thought that their goodbye seemed sortof finalized ran through hermind but she dismissed it instantly.
Hope you all liked this chappy. I know it was a little sad and that it probably wasn't what you were expecting but I figured that Logan and the kids would all have a breaking point about the Jean/Scott/Alex family relationship so I figured this would be a good place to put it.
