Jean blinked at the nickname he had bestowed upon her before she smiled and paused at his side gazing down on him. For a moment she didn't say anything, she simply let her gaze drift over him before she seemed to come back to herself and she held up the brown paper bag containing her lunch.
"Was wondering if you would be interested in having lunch with me?"
She didn't want to appear desperate or clingy, she was simply curious about the man who had been so nice to help her with her books and yet beat the crap out of idiots.

For a moment nothing happened and then she asked the question. He looked at her for a moment and then nodded. Not that he himself would eat. But she would be welcome to sit with him if she wanted to. Would be a welcome change from being alone all the time.
With now both of his legs a bit pulled up he leaned so he could moved a bit forwards and have his elbows on his knees. His eyes where ahead of him as he wondered whatever happened with that jock, if he had told Logan had done it, or just told people he had tripped. Logan would want to meet the principal who would put him back in his place.
"How was class?" |

When he gave a nod that she could sit with him she settled down a little to his left folding long legs under her pulling out her lunch a moment later. It consisted of a salad, apple, and a carton of juice, a simple and healthy lunch. She pulled the lid off the container to her salad and her eyes roamed the area watching other students as she started to eat. When he asked how class was she gave a small shrug her hair sliding over her shoulder as she did so.
"Can't overly complain, I'll have a lot of homework tonight but then I always do."

Logan followed her gaze to the other students as he sat there and slowly nodded as he was told basically it wasn't that bad. His eyes trailed to the side as he shifted and for a moment his eyes narrowed. He stared over the park to the open gate of the school and for a moment he didn't move.
Two vans had pulled up to the school on the side SHIELD. something Jean would know. Logan now moved his head down and moved his hand up. Just his luck. As if hiding his face he looked to the side and back at the wall he was sitting at. He trailed his eyes up the wall and back down.
His eyes went back to the field where now two officers walked around and questioned one of the students. The student thought for a moment and then nodded pointing to him and Jean. A low growl could be heard and soon enough he jumped up and turned his jump. Jean wouldn't be able to see his claws sliding out since he already had his knuckles against the wall.
Pushing up he jumped over and pushed off the side of the school. The two SHIELD agents right after him but had more trouble getting over the wall. |

Jean noticed the two vans and the lettering on the side and she tilted her head slightly pausing in her eating as she watched the men questioning a couple of the students. Her eyes narrowed as she saw who was questioned and she glanced to Logan who was up in the blink of an eye.
"Logan....." She dropped her half eaten lunch in her bag and got to her feet as well as the men continued to move towards them.
Something didn't feel right, these men looked like they meant business she had seen the vans before and knew that when they came around things were going to get ugly. She turned to glance to Logan noticing that he had already bolted over the wall and the men rushed passed her to follow him.

Logan made a quick turn to the left and stopped now as he leaned against the wall. He waited for now and soon enough heard the footsteps getting closer, if they caught him here he wouldn't have much place to move or anywhere to go. So he pushed off again and halfway stopped as he noticed they where gaining. Spinning around he aimed a kick at one of the two, for the head. Slamming him into the wall he landed and spun on. Now tackling the other.
He got up and looked down for a moment before he turned around staring right into the barrel of a gun. Logan stopped his tracks while he stood there. There wasn't much he could do, unless he wanted to be shot in the head. Whis he knew from last time hadn't been the most fun thing to do. The two he had managed to get down now stood by his side while Logan kept his gaze on the man in front of him.
"What do you want?"
He asked and for a moment his eyes flickered to the side. Looking at the two men on either side of him who for now didn't do anything. Logan could see however one of them was holding some metal parts he knew.
"You crossed the border without any authorisation or notice Project X."
The agent who held the gun aimed at his face spoke up. He looked at the other two and nodded. Logan in turn watched how they wanted to grab his arms and moved them to the side, aiming to hit one of them just on the tip of his nose and another blow upwards sending the bone of his nose into man's brain. He fell back.
"I have a name."
Logan responded now and looked at the other who he held by the neck now while his knuckles where aimed at the side of his head. |

Jean wasn't willing to simply stand there and let these guys do something to Logan, sure it probably wasn't the smartest thing in the world to do but she stepped around the wall anyway where the men and Logan were at. By the time she got around the wall it seemed Logan had things under control but Jean stepped into full view anyway.
"Logan.....everything alright?"
She could and would have used her power if need be, she was screened from the rest of the school by the wall at the moment and she didn't figure Logan would react too badly to her being a mutant. There were mutants running around the school anyway mixing with the humans. As long as no one saw her there wouldn't be any problems for her or anyone else.

Logan was with his back to Jean while his knuckles where pressed against the side of the male’s head. He for a moment kept his eyes on the male who stood with his gun aimed at him and then moved his eyes quickly a bit to the side and back.
“Jean… get back.”
He stated, he wasn’t kidding, his tone of voice said enough. He wanted her out of the way so he could get rid of these two. For a moment more they stood like that before he moved a bit to the left. The other male kept his gun aimed at his head, making sure not to lower it. Tension was rising and Logan now looked back.
“Jean… ge..”
BAM
The sound echoed down the alley and Logan’s head moved a bit before he fell back. The male he was holding moved to the side and now too pulled his gun and aimed at Logan. His eyes where closed and the way he lay there, you could see the wound in his left eye where the bullet had entered.

Jean shook her head when Logan told her to leave even though he couldn't see it. "I'm not going to let you deal with this alone."
She stated firmly. As the tension mounted she could feel it crawling along her skin, a weight that pressed into her as her mind screamed at her to listen to him. When his head turned and the gun went off Jean couldn't help the scream that tore from her throat, dear god they had shot him! It was more then enough to spur her into action but she didn't run away, instead emerald green eyes narrowed and she shook her head.
"Bad idea."
Her hand came up and she used her power of telekinesis to pull the guns from the men's hands and toss them over her shoulder out of the way where they wouldn't be able to get to them. She wanted so dearly to let her gaze drop to Logan even though she knew he couldn't have survived that but she didn't. Her gaze remained fixed on the men in front of her. She had exposed herself as a mutant but she had little choice if she hadn't wanted to get shot herself.

As the guns where pulled from their hands the agents counted their losses, one man had been killed already and with a telekinetic around… they didn’t want to risk it. Turning around and walking away one of them muttered they would be back for the hairball. Logan lay on back, his upper body half turned to the side. He remained like this. His own mind was a blur. Nothing but blackness.
He embraced it, to Logan this was the only moment he had at peace before his healing would piece him together again. Even if he wasn’t very old, he had some memories he didn’t want to go back to. But then, he was older than he looked which was something which would confuse people who would find out. But his healing stopped his aging or at least slowed it down.
He didn’t get anything of what Jean did or of the agents who now backed off.

Jean let out a shaky sigh of relief and she dropped to her knees next to Logan. She reached out a hand to touch him but lost her nerve halfway through and pulled back shaking her head. She didn't hardly know him but tears sprang to her eyes anyway and she bowed her head her long hair falling over her shoulder to hide her profile.
"Logan....I'm sorry I should have been quicker." She whispered.
She knew that this would have to be reported to the school, they couldn't leave a dead body out here for everyone to see. Jean found however that she couldn't move, she didn't want to leave him lying here. The bell rang to signal that lunch was over but still the redhead didn't move. It was as if the world had fallen away leaving just her and Logan.

For a moment more he lay there, until that tinkling feeling began… that half tingling sensation by his eye. His right hand closed and his legs now moved to his left as well, so he would lay on his side. His right hand moved up to his eye and soon enough it closed into a fist and he moved up to sit. His hand opened to show the bullet. His eye still healing up the damage. He looked to the side to now see Jean sitting there.
He didn’t say a thing just stared at her for now. She had seen he was mutant, for a moment he debated on leaving or running for it. One of the agents still lay half against the wall, he was long gone. Logan moved over and started to search his pockets, perhaps he could find something which he could use.
“Class probably already begun.”
He stated not looking at Jean.

Jean's head jerked up when she heard Logan's voice, green eyes wide as she stared at him. The man had been shot in the head and yet he was sitting there talking to her like nothing had happened! Her mind raced for several seconds before she came to the conclusion that he had to have the ability to heal any wound even a shot to the head. A moment later found her flinging her arms around his neck in a hug.
"Oh thank god your alright! I thought they had killed you!" She ignored his comment about classes.

Logan sat a bit... uncomfortable at the show of love he just got from Jean. His hands remained down for a moment while he looked at her. But then it had been very rare people would be nice to him... or even show affection like this to him. One hand slowly moved up and he lay it on the back of Jean's shoulder blades.
"I am alright... but..."
He wondered... didn't it bother her. The fact he had just been shot down fully and had laid there. But had nothing at all now. He had healed in mere seconds from a wounds which would be impossible for anyone else.
"Doesn't it bother you?" |

Jean settled back on her heels her hand coming up to brush the hair back from her eyes and an eyebrow rose at his question. It was clear since he had been incapacitated that he hadn't seen her use her own power to disarm the men. She bit her lower lip as she glanced behind her to where the gun lay that she had tossed away with her telekinesis. She shook her head as she slowly moved to get to her feet and offered him a hand up.
"Hey us freaks have to stick together." She replied with a smile to show her comment was not meant to offend but to try and lighten the situation and the scare she had just had.
