Scott, I'll love you forever.

Chapter 17

Games in The Toy Shop Part 2

Scott had red eyes from crying but Logan couldn't see them, tears still trickled down his face as Logan sat helplessly next to him on the couch.

Logan opened his mouth to speak but closed it again. He opened his hands then closed them again as well; he hadn't meant to hurt Scott he hadn't meant to alienate him. There was silence in the living room, broken only when Logan stood up, "Scott the truth is, in 20 years you're going to look at your life and say what would have happened if I had done something different… and I want you to be happy with you're choice."

Remy stood up he'd spent the entire night watching Creed now he walked across the club and set a pile of bills on his table, "for you drinks, thanks for showing up tonight."

Sabertooth nodded slowly and nodded his head to the door, "Hope whatever you wanted to do worked."

"I'd be willing to bet it did." Remy said with a vile grin, he turned and walked to the car.

Scott looked at Logan it was hard to make out his face in the dark but he looked like he was in pain, "I just don't understand why you can't let me stay with you."

Logan knelt in front of the young man, "I can't let you stay because if you stay maybe 10 maybe 20 years from now you're going to wake up and role over and look at me and say what would have happened if I had met some one else at college. I love you Scott, I'll love you forever; but I want you to be sure that I'm the man you want to spend the rest of your life with." Logan cupped Scott's cheek, "I love you Scott, I always will, and on year won't kill it, I'll still be waiting for you when you come back… And if you chose somebody else-"

"I won't." Scott said falling upon Logan and kissing him passionately. The garage door swung open and Remy walked in the front hall smoking one of Logan's cigars. Logan helped Scott up and walked to the front hall, "how'd it go?"

"He left, peacefully," Remy walked closer to the living room so that he could get a view of Scott, "What's wrong with Scotty?"

Logan glared at Remy. Scott glanced between the two and wondered vaguely what was passing between them. Remy shrugged, took a long drag on Logan's cigar and allowed the smoke to bellow from his lungs, then walked up the stairs humming an old country song under his breath. Logan turned back to Scott and Scott stood watching Remy disappear up the stairs, "One thing Logan."

"What Slim?"

"You're mine till the day I have to move in."

Logan grinned, "Deal."

Authors note: an awkwardly short chapter sorry I thought it was going to end up longer…. At any rate plz if any one is terribly fond of Remy I apologies. I my self find him a very loveable character but… for the purposes of my story he's an ass-face.
