Logan leaned over the side of his tub with a sigh. He couldn't be happier it was finally the weekend. A break from the kids was always great and now he could give Victor the attention he apparently wanted.
"Enjoying the warmth?" Victor asked, scrubbing his brother's back.
"I have admittedly missed bubble baths. Gentle baths," he remembered that time in Japan, "What do you want to do today?" they had just come from sparring and play fighting in the gym area. Gave the students, and teachers, quite a show, as well as destroyed some of their clothes.
"Something that doesn't involve being in this place all day," he scoffed, "I can't imagine why anyone would want to be here all day. It's horrible."
"I get it, you want to go out. Fine, want to see a movie or something? I need beer, something I can't get in this place. Not to mention I'm out of wipes and powder."
"Why do you just shop once a month?" Vict poured the water down his back.
"Because I'm normally just shopping for myself," he shook his head and climbed out of the tub, "What movie do you want to see? Or do you just want to get a bite?"
"Whatever is out," he shrugged.

The movie consisted of Victor enjoying nachos, while Logan demolished super buttery popcorn. Best part, they hopped to see almost every movie in the theater that looked decent. Nothing better than movies for free.

"As much as I love stuffing my mouth with popcorn and cherry pepsi, I think real food might be good," the younger of them rolled the soiled diaper up and tied it in a plastic bag before strapping another one on, "Need help or are you actually wearing disposable?"
"I do wear them when I'm going to be out for a while," he tapped, waiting outside the stall, "Where are we getting food?"
Logan pushed the stall open and tossed the bag, washing his hands, "A place I like. You'll probably like it too. They have good seafood."
"Is that a cat joke? Because I've not only heard it all," he flicked Logan's head, "I don't like fish."

Logan watched his brother enjoyed his pork chop and sip his wine, "Aren't you swank?"
"I've learned to have an air about myself," he sipped, "Not like you have us in some black tie place, it's a southern restaurant. That specializes in fish."
Logan shrugged, biting into his chicken, "Want a bite?"
"Ah," he leaned in and opened his mouth.
He rolled his eyes and forked some in his mouth, "You're weird."
"Takes one to know one," he offered him some of his food, which he gladly took.
Between chews Logan glanced back to Victor, "Why do you always call me Jimmy?"
"Why are you just now asking me that after a month and a half?" he sipped, "Most people ask about names after a few minutes."
"I've been a little busy. Y'know, papers to grade, you to babysit."
"Agreed. I call you that because it's your name," he took another bite of his food.
"My name is Logan."
"Your middle name is Logan. Your first name is James. You just never liked anyone calling you that."
He looked intrigued.
"Any other questions?"
"Are you sad?"
"Am I?" Victor turned his grey eyes to his brother, "It's strange explaining to someone you were best friends? That you love each other. I'm not sure I feel sad though."
"I do love you," Logan was taken aback by the suggestion that he didn't.
"How do love someone you don't even remember?"
"I feel a bond between us that I've never felt with anyone else. A fondness that takes years to forge. That's why I even believed you when you said we were brothers. And I'm not a trusting person, bub."
Vic gave a wry smile.
"How is the danger room treating you?"
By this point majority of the school knew he would spend hours on end there when he wasn't with Logan. It was just fine by his brother. That meant when he did rarely come to his class he slept the whole time.
"Better than simply jogging," he smiled.
"And your teeth? Feeling any better?"
He was only able to shrug at that one. That came and went, but for the most part was ok.
"Happy it subsided," the younger looked to the time, "Better hit the store before it closes."

"Got enough snacks?" The cashier chuckled to herself as she scanned the boxes of cookies, cake, cake mix and other assorted treats, "Having a party?"
"Nope, just greedy," Logan looked into his wallet as his brother oogled at the candy bars, "Don't even think about it."
"You're no fun," he tsked.

"Did you have fun?" Jimmy asked as he dressed for bed.
"Nothing like theatre hopping, rough housing and food to make a man smile," he stretched out and pulled his pyjamas on before climbing in bed.
"Good. We'll play more when I get time. It's almost time for the constitution test and I have to hammer this stuff into these kids' heads."
"Uh huh," Victor would just pretend he knew what his brother was talking about.
Within minutes Logan was in bed next to his brother, "Really gotta get a bigger bed. Goodnight," he leaned and kissed Victor's cheek before nestling against him.
An ear to ear smile spread across his face and he hugged Logan tight before kissing his forehead and rubbing his hair back affectionately, "Night Jimmy."
