Ok guys, this may be all for the next week. I'm going to be super busy. Sunday I leave and I'll be at my sister's until wednesday and then when I do get home I have to make sure everything goes right with my sister's baby shower that saturday. I appologize in advance for this!!!!! Super sorry for the wait, but I should have some time while I'm sitting around at my sis's house to at least write so I should have something good when everything dies back down.

Once Upon a Dream Part XIII

Logan wasted no time in running out of the mansion and bringing his bike to life. Traveling at neck breaking speeds, he made it to the hospital and dashed into the emergency room.

Patients, doctors and nurses all turned their heads as he busted in. Susan saw him and quickly headed to him.

"Where is Sydney?" he growled menacingly, making Susan cringe a bit.

"Follow me Logan." She simply said, leading him down a hallway.

"What happened?" he growled clenching and unclenching his fists in rage.

"She was on her way home when she was struck by a trucker that had fallen asleep. Her car caught on fire and she was pulled out, but just barely. There is nothing left of her car." Susan replied wiping away a lone tear. "She has extensive damage. Her right leg and left wrist along with several ribs are all broken. She has numerous cuts, some deeper than others, a concussion, and several severe burns on her left side but she's alive unlike the guy who hit her."

Susan stopped at a door before looking at Logan, "She's probably still asleep and in a lot of pain right now. It's against hospital procedure for me to let you in but no one is going to say anything since it is Sydney. Just know she…well she doesn't look good right now but we're taking good care of her."

Susan opened the door and motioned for Logan to go in.

"I'll leave you two alone." She said before closing the door and going back to her station.

Logan looked around the starch white room, his eyes landing on the figure in the bed. Sydney, his Sydney, was bandaged up and hooked to numerous machines.

He fought down the rage that built inside him, and moved to her side. He gently picked up her right hand, half afraid it would break when he touched it.

"Sydney" he whispered sitting down in the chair beside her bed. "Sydney baby, it's me, Logan. Can you hear me?" he whispered. "I…I love you Sydney. Please Darlin' just open your eyes. Let me know you're alright."

"Logan" a soft, shaky, whisper came from her mouth.

"I'm here baby. I'm here." He whispered back placing a gentle kiss on her knuckles.

"It hurts so much Logan." She whispered, tears beginning to form in her eyes and roll down her cheeks.

"I know baby I know." He replied, pressing the button to call a nurse in.

In no time at all a young nurse, Janey, hurried in, a syringe of morphine in her hand.

"Here ya go Syd." She said giving Sydney the shot.

"Logan" Sydney whispered, her eyes fluttering closed, "I…I love"

"I know Darlin" Logan replied "I love you too Australia and I ain't going anywhere."

Sydney's eyes firmly closed and she drifted off into a painless sleep.

"Here," Janey said handing Logan a blanket, "Susan sent it with me. She told me to tell you that Sydney will be out for the rest of the night and you should try and get some sleep."

"Yeah, thanks." Logan mumbled taking the blanket.

Janey left the room smiling as she turned and glanced at Logan who was gently holding Sydney's hand. She knew right then and there Sydney had found someone special in her life and that was enough to know that no matter what, Sydney would pull through.

"Damn Australia you scared the crap out of me." Logan whispered to her sleeping form. "You're not allowed to ever do that to me again."

With that spoken, Logan, The Wolverine and a member of the X-Men did something he never would have thought of doing, no matter what. Logan cried.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Logan woke up to a hand running through his hair. He opened his eyes to see Sydney slightly smiling down at him.

"How you feeling?" he asked yawning and stretching his achy muscles that came from sleeping in a chair.

"Okay" she replied her voice still shaky but better than the night before, "It hurts but they have me on so many pain meds that I'm beginning to see leprechauns dance."

Before Logan could reply the door sprung open and Faye zoomed in pouncing on Sydney.

"Ohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh" she screamed tears streaming down her face "I was so worried."

"Faye…pain" Sydney grunted.

"Oh shit I'm so sorry." Faye replied backing off. "I swear Syd if you ever and I mean ever do that to me again I will kill you. I was waiting outside for like three hours before they let me in. How come they let in Logan and not me? I am family after all."

"They let Logan in because he would have bashed down the door." Sydney replied, obviously still in pain because her words were strained.

Faye nodded her head before looking at him a moment, deep in thought. She walked over to Logan and smirked before slapping him across his face. "I swear Logan if this is what happens when you sleep with my cousin I swear I will snap off your manhood, healing capabilities or not."

Sydney couldn't help but laugh thus causing her to clutch her ribs in pain.

"Oww Faye don't make me laugh, it hurts too much." She said closing her eyes as the pain receded. "I think I'm going to go to sleep now."

"You do that Darlin'." Logan said gently touching her hand to his lips. "I'll be right here when you wake up."

"I love you Logan." Sydney slurred before her eyes closed completely.

"I love you too." Logan whispered back.
