Once More with Feeling
By: Jane McCracken
Part Two
Logan was just about done packing when he sensed somebody standing outside
his door. He sniffed the air and knew immediately that it was Scott
Summers. He sighed disgustedly. He kept going about his
room packing, hoping that Scott would decide not to knock. He really
didn’t have anything to say to him and he didn’t want to hear what he had
to say. But regretfully, he heard the knock at his door.
“Come in,” Logan instructed.
Scott opened the door and stepped in. “Logan, may I speak with you,
please.”
“Yeah, what about?”
“I see your packing, where are you going?”
“Away for a few days,” Logan said, not revealing anything.
“You found somebody else, haven’t you? That’s where you’re going,
to spend time with her or is it him?”
“Well, I can’t see how that any of your business.”
“Please Logan, I’m sorry for everything I did to you. Please, give
me one more chance,” Scott begged.
Logan looked at him as if he had lost his mind, “You’ve gotta be kidding
me! I look at you and all I can see is the ‘Winged Wonder’s’ cum clinging
to your face! I wouldn’t touch you if you were the last tight hole on
the planet, which you’re not! Far from it, I’d say.”
“OK, I deserve that. You’ve got to give me another chance! I
promise I’ll never hurt you again.”
“Get out.”
“But I-”
“Get the fuck out!” Logan said forcefully.
Scott hung his head as he reached for the door knob and opened the door.
He stepped out and turned to watch Logan firmly shut the door in his face.
He slunk down the hall thinking, ‘This isn’t over, Logan. I’m going
to win you back, one way or another!’
Logan shook his head and chuckled at the utter audacity Scott
displayed! Did he really think that Logan would ever take him back,
under any circumstances after what he did? He gave him chance after
chance and he was not about to put his heart on the line again for someone
like Scott Summers! Not when he had his ‘Lil Puddy Tat’! Victor
was much more reliable and trustworthy than Scott could ever be, not to mention
honest. If he was gonna hurt or kill ya, he’d come right out and say so!
He thought of Victor as his other half. He thought Scott was a whore
and he had no stomach for dating a whore! He would just have to get
the fantasy of him getting back together with Logan out of his head and move
on with his life. Because Logan wasn’t going to put up with this anymore.
Professor Xavier was sitting at his desk with his head
bowed and his eyes closed when Logan knocked at the door.
“Come in, Logan.”
“Hey Prof, I need to talk to you a minute,” Logan said as he sat down
across from Xavier.
“Certainly. What can I do for you?” Xavier asked mildly.
“I’m going away for a long weekend,” he informed the Professor.
“Marie will be on that camping field trip while I’m away, so I don’t see any
problems.”
“Niether can I. Do you need a vehicle?”
“I’m not sure. I was thinking maybe takin’ a cab.”
“Well, if you change your mind, help yourself.”
“Thanks. You can reach me on my cell phone.”
“Very good. Have a nice time.”
Logan left the professor to himself. He looked at his
watch, it was getting late so he decided to take a swim to relax himself and
then go to bed. He could hardly wait for tomorrow!
Scott stood outside the door listening to Logan and the
professor. He hoped that Logan wouldn’t scent him, but if he did he
could use ‘ I was just passing by’ as an excuse. He really hoped Logan,
used one of the vehicles, they have a homing monitor on them and would be
able to find Logan easily. But if he decided to take a cab; it may
take longer but he would find him! Find him and make him understand
that no one could love or please him like Scott! Then he was sure to
take him back! Also, he ‘had’ to know who he was seeing! A wave
of jealousy rolled over him and he couldn’t think about anything but hurting
whoever it was!
Logan put his suitcase and suit carrier into the ‘Lexus LS’
that was in the garage, then turned and looked at Marie.
“You have my number, right?”
“Of course.”
“You have a good time camping. If you the need anything, call me. You listen
to Hank and try to stay out of trouble,” he said reaching out to gently stroking
her hair. He pulled her in for a quick kiss on the forehead and comforting
bear-hug.
“I love you, Logan. I want you have good time on your ‘get-away’ weekend.
Watch your back,” she said with a giggle before he could say it to her.
He made her feel wanted, safe and special. She knew she
would be lost if he ever left her and would gladly kill anyone who would dare
threaten his life. He was her sarrogate father and she truly loved him
and wanted to see him happy. Whoever he was seeing now, obviously made
him happy and she wanted to know who it was.
“Logan, may I ask you something?”
“Of course, you know you can ask me anything.”
“Who are you seeing, now? I don’t mean to be nosy, but it’s just that
whoever it is obviously makes you very happy and I would like to know who
it is.”
Logan looked at his watch, then said, “I’ve got enough time, come
sit down,” he said nodding to the front seat of the Lexus.
“I’ve been wanting to talk to you about this for a while now,” he paused,
scratching his temple, not sure exactly what to say next. “I really
don’t want to upset you, but I’ve been seeing Victor Creed. You know
him better as Sabretooth.”
Rogue took a sharp intake of breath, “Oh no Logan! Not him, how could
you!”
“Well, it wasn’t like I planned it,” he tried to explain. “I saw him
at a resturant and one thing led to another. I really didn’t expect it and
to tell you the truth, I don’t think he did either.”
“Do you remember what he did to me? What he and his friends almost
did to the world?” She cried as her voice raised in anger.
“Yes, we talked about that in length. He’s very sorry for what
he did to you, but was only following orders.”
“So you’re making excuses for him?”
“No, not really. Look darlin’, if you can’t accept this, then I’ll
stop seeing him,” he said forlornly. “He’s exspecting me at 3:00, I’ll tell
him tonight and be home in the morning or later tonight however it works out.”
“No, don’t you dare! Look, I don’t know all the details and
to tell you the truth, I really don’t want to know everything.
But it’s obvious that he makes you happy, a lot more than Mr. Summers did,
anyway. Let me speak to him, maybe I can find it in my heart to forgive
him too. What do you say?”
“I think that’s a great idea kid, thanks. I love you,”
he said with a smile, hugging her.
“You’re welcome. Now, you better get going, you don’t want to be late.”
