① BREAKFAST IN BED;
your partner is up and about -- maybe dressed, maybe not -- and in the kitchen. what are they making you? could it be... grilled cheese?

② HIT ME BABY;
they're such a peaceful sleeper. a peaceful, sexy sleeper. actually there's too much of that sleeping happening. why don't you wake the up, world's kindest alarm?

③ ESCAPE FROM AZKABED;
you wake up to find they're rummaging about for their clothes, about to leave. why the rush, can't you convince them to stay?

④ THE AFTERNOON AFTER;
and the evening, maybe even the morning after after... hours have passed but you just can't leave each other! or maybe one of you just won't...

⑤ HANGOVER FROM HELL;
there's a tiger in the closet, a baby in the bathroom, and a total stranger curled up beside you. who is this person beside you, smelling of tequila and regret? do they know any more about what, or who, went down than you do?

⑥ WET AND WILD;
don't feel too lonely waking up by yourself -- the shower's on and the sound of water falling is mighty inviting. why don't you get cleaned up -- or down and dirty all over again?

⑦ I'LL SLEEP WHEN I DIE;
sleep? what is this sleep thing you speak of? dawn's breaking and neither of you have gotten a wink, or want one. who's ready for round xxx?

⑧ A BITTER PILL;
turns out the reason you scored wasn't your sparkling wit and magnetic confidence. your partner had an ulterior motive -- they already knew it and you're about to. recon? revenge? rebound? tag and find out, if you can handle the truth!

⑨ THIS ISN'T MINE;
that sleepy person in your living room had a great night -- with your roommate. well, might as well get to know each other while you're both there, right? ... right?

[ It's funny to think back to those words she had said to him once upon a time. Girls flirt with the dangerous guy, they don't bring him home. If only because Logan has most certainly been "brought home" as it were. Right here into her bed. Because she still adores that bad boy that he is. Craves to be ravaged and taken by the animal within him, just as much as he seems to love the way she gives it right back to him with showing him what she wants and how she wants it. They mesh with one another so well in that way. Where Jean can be as she wants and Logan can drink it all up for himself.

But they're not so black and white in that way. Just look at them now. In bed like this after it all. Slow and lazy, Logan even making attempts to fish around for dating ideas, never mind casting a line to see what she thinks of partners when it comes to so-called labels. She had said to him once girls marry the good guy when it came to the dangerous ones and he had been so quick to give her I could be the good guy. Right here and given the changes that have happened over the years (some she doesn't even know for herself with his time traveling and all), she can see the so-called Good Guy that he can be, especially with his sticking around. Because that had always been a concern of hers. The fact that he was always so quick to take off without a second thought or even looking back. A little difficult for a girl to rely on a guy who has a habit of doing that. Not really possible to make something together when the other half is always disappearing whenever he feels like it.

But he's hung around this time- for a long time now. Staying here at the school, becoming a teacher himself, part of the X-Men. He's shown her that he can and wants to stick around. That he has a purpose here. That he has family and those who care for him and that is the reason why she had invited him into her bed. Among other things, yes. But that was the core reason why. She didn't feel as if she would wake to find him gone.

She stretches an arm out and drapes the sheets over them with the help of her mind, fingers crawling along his chest as her cheek rests there close to his shoulder, letting her thoughts just wander for a little bit over those words. ]

Are you trying to tell me you've never taken a girl out on a date before?

[ She sounds amused as she asks, though doesn't come to look up to him just yet. Rather, she chews on her lower lip to bite back the smile she can feel coming before she finally looks up to him then. ]

Scott's going to have to know. [ She shrugs. ] He will know. Eventually. [ Bringing Scott into bed with them isn't really what she wants but, he's the elephant in the room when it comes to them. ] I think it's probably better if I talk to him about it.

[It took Logan awhile to find the good guy within himself, because he lived too long a different way. Adjusting to the X-Men took time. When she first said that to him, she was right. He might have flirted with the idea of being the guy she deserved, but he couldn't stop the drive in him to keep moving. Once he got some answers about his past he managed to come back, but he still had one foot out the door. Until the end of times. It's too bad it took that for Logan to see what mattered, but he's here now and the journey was necessary. He was just lucky that his changes coincided with her own.

They wouldn't have made it as a couple back then, even if she decided to throw caution to the wind and leave Summers for him. It was selfish of him to try, another reason why he didn't deserve her then. This is better for both of them. Logan can live with all the heartache of his past if it brings him here, with her. He knows that being with Jean Grey comes with all the ties. She has roots in this place. He has to be willing to stay and not just stay but engage. This has to be a home and a purpose he's chosen for himself too. And it is. It's not that he won't run away, it's that he doesn't want to run away either. Finally.

Logan grabs the sheet when she pulls it over them and does a step extra by making certain it's tucked nicely around her. It's the little gestures he isn't conscious of making. He rolls his eyes at her joke.] I haven't taken you out for a date. I gotta do it right. Are you going to make me ask Ororo's opinion? Cause I don't know if she's gonna tell me straight or mess with me too.

[These brilliant women who love to mess with him. Probably because Logan comes off as much too serious, and it's harder to see his soft and playful side when it comes in a scowly package. He's not going to tell Ororo first, obviously, he assumes Jean will and then Ororo'll show up at his door a mixture of threatening and friendly. He tips his head down to look at her when she looks up, but he simply nods without hesitation to what she's saying. He doesn't mind Scott being brought up; it's important considering how on top of everyone people are here. Logan's never going to be the guy who gets jealous and wants to pretend she's never been in love with someone else. He respects her history.]

You're only saying that because if I talk to him, we'll end up breaking a wing of the mansion. [His tone is very dry. Logan is older and wiser, but he and Scott have nearly come to blows over much less. He doesn't want to fight the guy, honestly, but he's smart enough to know a raw and emotional moment between them is a disaster in the making. Better Scott has some time to deal with it before they inevitably clash.]

Like I said, we can handle this however you like. If you want to wait before telling Summers, I'm alright with that. We can sneak around. Sneaking around can be hot. [He smirks at her, brushing her cheek with the back of his fingers.] He hasn't caught on to all the eyefucking we've been doing for weeks. [It's not as if this night came out of no where. They've been building up to it.]

[redheat]

[ That would exactly be why she doesn't want him to talk about this with Scott. She knows him best in ways that no one else really does and it's why she needs to be the one to tell him. How to even go about doing that though... she doesn't know. She likes to think that, in the end at least, he'll just want her happiness above all else. But the fact that it's Logan and, as far as she knows he'll take it, not even that long after separating from each other with the years they've had together... she's not so much worried about him getting angry at her as she is about him getting upset and saying things that she knows will cut. You and I call it quits and you get with Logan? Boy, sure didn't take you long there to get in bed with him, did it? She can already hear it and see the shake of his head with the dry look on his face. It's better she deal with that than Logan, even if it'll hurt. Because she knows Scott is a good person, regardless of how he's liable to take this initially.

She just needs to hold onto the hope that he'll come around to it... eventually.

Lost in her thoughts surrounding that, she only catches what Logan says at the tail end there and glances up to him with a small smile, cheek pressing back down against his chest. ]

I think the only one I'd be worried about would be the other telepath living here picking up on that. Or worse.

[ Not that the Professor has said anything to her about it, but she knows he knows about her... fondness for the gruffy Canadian they have with them.

But with settling herself in closer against Logan, she sighs and lets the tips of her fingers ghost along the warmth of his skin as she lays there with him. Starting the day like this would be... nice. With or without the morning sex. Not that she'd refuse that of course. But just being here with Logan like this is really she's wanted at her core and she's thankful he wants the same without looking to slip out right away.

So with a kiss pressed to his skin, she lets her eyes fall shut and hugs an arm around him then, leg brushing against his beneath the sheets. ]

But that's something to worry about later. When I'm not about ready to go back to sleep. Scott and all of it. It'll work out... somehow.

and wrap on this one!

[thesnikt]

[Logan will give the man some space. He might even intentionally make sure he's out of his eyesight while he handles it, because the last thing they really need is a confrontation in front of the kids. It'll be alright. He doesn't dislike Scott; he grieved for him when he died in the other timeline. He knows he's not a bad guy, they are just oil and fire to each other. Their tempers collide over nothing. He's glad that in the end it didn't really end up being a 'you gotta choose' moment. Logan didn't make a move on her until after they'd been broken up for their own reasons. That makes a difference.]

He's Charles Xavier, of course he knows.

[Logan would be more shocked if he didn't. He knows everything that happens. He isn't saying Chuck knows what they're doing this very minute, but he's going to pick up on a change in them. It's inevitable. Logan puts both of his arms around her snugly, one around her shoulder and the other running up and down her arm around him. He's waited a long time to get this woman in his arms, and he doesn't plan on ever letting her go now.]

We'll worry about that later, Red. Get some sleep. I've been keeping you up. [So very smug about that! Still, sex is incredible and he can't wait for more, but he's happier about this part. Because sleeping with Jean Grey, being chosen by her, means a whole lot more than sex. It means forever. And he's ready to start forever now.]
