Thanks for the lovely comments! Hope you enjoy this next chapter :)

As soon as Logan was out the door I felt a rush of tiredness and aches wash over me. My body had taken a beating and I knew it, I had pushed it too far, and this was my punishment. I hated to see him go.

The three girls turned to me in unison. Quite a scary sight for someone like me; the three of them grinning menacingly at me.

"Look, I really don't need watching," I started, suppressing a whimper as I moved and the pain collected at that place above my left hip. Ouch.

"Oh yes you do," Jubilee cut across me, "What if you collapse like you did in class?"

"Well, I'm in bed now," I mumbled.

"The real reason is," Rogue sat down on my bedside, "Logan will actually kill us if we leave you, or if anything remotely negative happens to you." She patted my arm sympathetically.

"But I just need a bit of rest, I'm really fine," I exclaimed.

"No you're not," Kitty voiced kindly.

"Okay listen, I'm really sorry for bugging you in class," Jubilee said suddenly.

"It's okay," I mumbled, still a little put out and more over embarrassed at her non-stop question time in the middle of my class.

"What happened in class?" Rogue looked to the other two.

"Nothing-"

"I kind of wouldn't stop asking him about him and Logan," Jubilee muttered, sending me and apologetic look that meant I couldn't stay mad at her. I gave her a smile. Damn, maybe Logan was right, I was a bit too soft for my own good.

As soon as the bell rang, signalling the end of class, I yelled at Colossus to pack it up and make sure everything's switched off before running up the stairs to get back to Scott. It had been pure torture to be away from Scott, for an hour as well. A whole fucking hour. Away from Scott. Do I need to stress my point anymore?

I didn't bother with the elevator and heroically took the stairs, running all the way. I felt horribly uncomfortable leaving Scott with the three girls. I trusted the girls, yes, but not with Scott. If anything had happened to him, I don't know what I'd do.

Actually, scratch that. I would know exactly what I'd do, I'd kill the little fuck who-

My thoughts were put to an immediate halt when I rounded the still broken door into our room, hit by the welcome wall of glorious scent that was Scott. That was good, I couldn't smell any blood, that was always good. My eyes found him, sleeping softly on his side, shirtless as far as I could tell, and safe.

The girls were sitting at the end of the bed, and had halted their chatting as they saw me, mouths hanging open and smirking somehow at the same time.

I caught my breath as they giggled. "Is everything okay?" I panted.

"Yes, yes, everything's fine," Rogue chuckled, "How was class?"

"Umm, fine," I coughed, standing up straight and getting my breath back, "I was just passing by... I just thought I'd... check in... and..."

"He's fine. Sleeping. But fine," Kitty grinned at me innocently, "He fell asleep after the first ten minutes actually, couldn't keep him up!"

"Yeah, no fun," Jubilee laughed.

I ran a hand through my hair, relieved, but trying not to show it too much. "Alright then," I mumbled, tearing my eyes away from Scott, "You girls probably want to get to your next class. Was nice seeing you, bye."

"Actually," Rogue smirked, "We all have lunch now..."

Urgh! Damn lunch! My eyes drifted back to Scott's sleeping form again. God, he was so beautiful. How did I ever end up so lucky? All I wanted was to get these girls, however helpful they'd been, out. "Oh..."

"So," Kitty looked up at me, "I thought it had always been Jean and Scott?"

Fuck. They wanted to talk.

"Yeah, you little home wrecker," Rogue giggled. I knew they were joking, but now really wasn't the time.

"Well I'm sure you all have plenty of homework, I'll catch you some other time then," I growled.

They all grinned up at me, "It's almost as if you don't want us here, Logan!" They giggled, knowing full well it was taking a huge amount of self restraint not to kick them out the nearest exit right now.

"What ever gave you that idea?" I said bitterly.

"Okay, okay," Rogue laughed, "We're leaving now," She pulled the other two up. Over the years she'd learned to notice the signs that led up to my bad moods, and was able to tell when I was joking.

Finally! I had to restrain myself from punching the air with joy as the girls trailed out the door and left Sleeping Beauty and myself alone.

Scott stirred, moaning tiredly, just as the girls were being pulled out the door. "Logan...?"

I was at his side in an instant, "Yeah, I'm here," I smiled at him.

He returned my smile, I was relieved to see. I sat down on the bed next to him as he pulled himself up on his elbows. "Good class?" He mumbled, sleep still clinging to him.

"Alright," I nodded. "I'm sorry I had to leave," I said slightly quieter.

"Don't worry about it," Scott ran a hand through his chestnut hair, "I'm sure the girls had a lovely time... I was out for most of it... when did they leave?"

"About two minutes ago," I answered. "Listen, I know I've said it, but I'm sorry about last night. And this. All this is my fault," I looked him right in the eyes.

"I don't see it that way," He mumbled, "And if you apologise one more time I'm going back to sleep," He said grumpily.

"Well I can't have that," I grinned, leant forwards and kissed him; something I haven't been able to do for what seemed like forever. There were no kids around, finally.

Oh scratch that. I heard giggling at the door. Scott pulled away sharply and I whirled round, seeing the three girls swooning at the door.

"We really need to get that door fixed," I growled.

So how do you guys feel about me carrying this on? I've got the beginnings of a chapter five written, where it kind of leaves the weirdness that was 'Logan nightmare Scott stabbed' bit and onto another little embarrassing, fluffy niche. It kind of makes a nice ending here as well though – what do you think?

I'm completely and utterly open to suggestions and stuff too, if you guys have an idea you wouldn't mind seeing written down, or want Logan to do something or Scott to do something, then please don't hesitate. What's that called? Like, requests?

Okaay, sorry for my ramblings – really hoped you like the story (Ha! I make myself laugh, I just referred to it as a story! Oh dear...) and would love to hear what you guys think :)

Thanks for reading!

Lots of love and peace
