Disclaimer: I don't any of the X-Men only Jasey.
Also I have completely changed the first chapter, so you may want to go back and re-read that.
After nearly an hour in the Danger Room, and almost getting killed a few times, Jasey and her teammates finally emerged, tired and sweaty. Leaning up against the wall, Jasey snuck a peek at Logan. He didn't look to happy. In fact he was glaring and his target was Remy, who didn't seem to notice. She didn't want to stay and see if anything would break out.
"Well that was fun." She said sarcastically, heading upstairs to take a second shower.
"Wait!" Remy called after her. She froze.
"Remy was hopin' to get ta know ya a lil better." He had on that same smirk.
"Oh…well I'm kinda gross right now. Maybe later?" She suggested with a small smile.
"Ok later than. Remy be waitin'."
Once she was finally letting the hot water run over her body, she was struck with an odd question.
"When the hell did he start talkin in 3rd person?" That was completely new to her. "And what's up with Logan?...Hmmm." She let that ponder in her head for a while. After her shower she picked her book back up with no intention of going back down stairs soon.
Although her hopes were soon dashed when she realized how thirsty she was. She took her book with her knowing if she put it down now she'd probably never pick it back up. She thanked God that she was slightly more coordinated than Bella, or else she would have fallen.
Once she was in the kitchen she did close her book. Opening the fridge she grabbed a water bottle and looked for something to eat. She grabbed a yogurt and tried to eat it, read, carry her water, and walk back upstairs. Unfortunately she failed miserably, smacking right into someone.
"Omg! I am so sorry!" She apologized seeing Remy's now strawberry covered shirt.
"Ce n'est pas la mer à boire… (It's not the end of the world)" He shrugged.
"Oh come here…" She said grabbing his hand and dragging him back to her room.
She flipped her bathroom light on and started wetting a washcloth. He hopped on the counter and watched her, studying her features. She started to wipe the goo off him. When there eyes met she realized that it was kinda awkward, at least to her. She let out a nervous laugh.
"It's alright really, Remy'll just go change." He said trying to wipe it off himself. She blushed trying not to look at his muscular arm.
"I'm sorry."
He chuckled, "It's ok, really." He handed the washcloth back to her letting his fingers barely skim hers.
"Remy's gonna go change now." He gave her one last smile before walking out. Once he had shut the door she let out a huge sigh. She looked at herself in the mirror.
"Niceee…" She mumbled, then went back out to pick her stuff up. She threw away her now empty lunch and groaned, having to go back and fix something else.
As she was going back up, with a sandwich, Remy was coming down.
"Be careful wit' that one." He laughed using his hands as a shield. She blushed.
"I'll try…"
After successfully getting it back to her room, she ate and read in silence. Somewhere after Bella and Edward's first kiss she fell asleep.
She woke a few hours later to someone knocking.
"Mmmmhhh." She moaned rubbing her eyes. They knocked again.
"I'm commin!" She yelled.
She slowly shuffled to the door and opened it to reveal Hank.
"Oh hey."
"Hello Jasey, I just thought you might want to borrow this." He smiled holding up an old walkman.
"Oh wow!" She yelled hugging him, "It's perfect, thank you so much."
"Anytime." He chuckled walking back down the hall.
Jasey ran over to her desk where she had laid the small tape the other day. Quickly she popped it in and put the headphones on. She sat back on her bed and pressed play. There were a few seconds of fuzzy silence and then his voice came on.
Alrigh' so 'dis is a mix tape of your fav songs.
She smiled at his slightly higher voice. A song she hadn't heard in awhile came on.
Well I'm just outta school
Like I'm real real cool
Gotta dance like a fool
Get the message that
I wanna be a wild one
Ooh yeah I'm a wild one
Gotta break it loose
Gotta keep it movin' wild
Gotta keep it swingin', baby
I'm a real wild child
After listening for a few seconds she was able to sing along. When each song had finished Remy would come back on and say the title and artist. It made her smile. There were quite a few songs on the tape, but there was only one slow one. Remy never liked it but he knew she loved it. She wondered if he heard it now…would he remember?
Everybody wants to be loved
every once in a while
we all need someone to hold on to
just like a helpless child
yeah
can you whisper in my ear
let me know it's alright
it's been a long time coming
down this road
and now I know
what I've been waiting for
and like a lonely highway
I'm trying to get home
ooo loves been a long time coming
Yea this one was a little short. But i did re-write the 1st Chapter soooo...
I'm hoping to finish this before I have to go back to school in August. Just FYI.
I love feedback!
