Once Upon a Dream Part XII
The door bell sounded and Sydney's eyes fluttered open. She moved to get out of bed to answer the door but found she couldn't move due to the arm wrapped around her, holding her to a rock hard chest.
"Don't answer it." Logan mumbled pulling her tighter to him.
"Logan I need to answer my door." She replied attempting to lift his arm off of her.
"No" he grunted back.
Sydney signed and leaned over to whisper in his ears. "Just let me get rid of whoever it is and then you can have me for the rest of the day."
Logan grunted in response but loosened his grip and let her go.
She stumbled out of bed and made her way to the door, pulling on a pair of boxers and Logan's flannel shirt along the way.
She opened the door and in strolled Faye, not paying attention to the state of Sydney, and went to sit on the couch.
"It's about time you got a day off." Faye jabbered absentmindedly at Sydney who had closed the door and stood with her arms crossed glaring at Faye. "I've been waiting to take you to this new shop in town. It has the most fabulous dresses, ones that would make Logan drool over you. Speaking of him, I haven't seen him all morning and that's rather unusual. Normally he's barking orders at a class or telling me I talk too much."
At this point Faye took the time to look up and at seeing Sydney's outfit her mouth dropped open.
"Oh my God!" she exclaimed jumping up and pointing a finger at Sydney, "You slept with Wolverine!"
"Yes now keep it down." Sydney said rushing over, "You'll wake the neighbors."
"Was he good?" Faye asked still loud but a tone quieter from before.
Soft chuckling could be heard from the bedroom where Logan was obviously enjoying the conversation.
"Well?" Faye asked persistent.
"Yes" Sydney whispered reddening.
"Excellent" Faye said grinning her evil grin.
"Okay you've had your fun now go." Sydney replied pushing Faye out the door, "And try and keep your mouth shut!"
The door closed and Sydney locked it and let out a sigh of relief before walking back to the bedroom.
"So how am I in bed again?" Logan asked playfully making Sydney's face light up red yet again.
"Oh bite me." She replied sinking back into bed.
"I think that can easily be arranged." Logan growled grabbing onto her and pulling her to him.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Much much later that day Sydney finally managed to pull herself out of bed.
"Logan stop it" Sydney said to the man nibbling on her neck, "I have to be at work in an hour."
"That means we have plenty of time." He replied drawing her closer to him.
"No Logan" Sydney said sternly, as if she were reprimanding a dog, "I need to get ready, eat, and get to the hospital. You need to get back to the mansion and see how the Professor's meeting went."
Logan let out a growl of annoyance but released Sydney who made a beeline for the shower. She was out quickly and throwing her hair into a bun.
"I love you." She said kissing Logan before heading out the door. "Oh and lock up when you leave."
Sydney made it to the hospital with a few minutes to spare.
"Hey Susan" Sydney said walking over to where her coworker was standing checking charts of patients who had come in.
"Oh my God" Susan said glancing up at Sydney.
"What?" Sydney asked worried, "do I have something on my shirt?"
"Oh honey you got laid didn't you?" Susan asked crossing her arms in front of her and smirking.
"What?" Sydney cried out in surprise.
"Honey you are positively glowing. A for sure sign you got laid." Susan replied.
Sydney didn't answer, instead turned away and blushed red.
"What's going on ever here?" Mindy, another nurse asked coming over to the duo.
"Syd got laid that's what's going one." Susan replied.
"Holy shit!" Mindy exclaimed, "Was he good?"
"Oh I am not having this conversation." Sydney replied walking away.
Before either of the two ladies could grab her and prod for more information, a stream line of patients entered, all needing medical attention, and so Sydney's evening began.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey Logan, have fun last night?" Faye asked Logan who had just stomped into the mansion.
"Shut up Faye." Logan growled walking past her.
"I hope you used a condom!" She yelled at his retreating form, causing Kitty and Rogue to laugh and Ororo to raise her eyebrow.
Logan reared back and producing his claws, put a hole in the wall.
"Fuck you Faye." He snarled clearly angry and annoyed.
"I'll let Syd know you want another go around." Faye called after him.
It was right then and there he decided he would kill Faye or better yet, watch while Sydney did the job. He chuckled at that thought. Making his way to his room he grabbed a shower before heading to the gym and his punching bag.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Courtesy of Faye, the news of Sydney and Logan was all around the mansion, much to the annoyance of Logan. Professor Xavier had returned and had gathered his team to him.
"Eric has agreed that the threat of Apocalypse can not be taken lightly and therefore has agreed to emerge our teams." The wise old man said, looking around at his team.
"Remy still don't like this idea." Gambit said from where he was sitting.
"I agree with the Cajun." Logan said.
"Whether you like it or not," the professor replied, "it is the best possible path to follow. We begin training as a team within a week. You are dismissed."
Logan grimaced but followed the rest of the team out, rubbing his neck. Sydney was still at work and would be for hours. He was exhausted and went straight to bed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Logan was having another one of his dreams about his past. The ones where he woke up, claws stabbing the mattress. Someone was pounding at the door he had locked earlier.
"Logan let meh in." Rogue said, her voice containing not only panic and worry but also fear.
Logan was up in an instant and grumpily opening the door. "What is it Marie?"
"It's the hospital," she said, tears trickling down her face, "they just called. Something happened to Sydney."
