Me And The X-Men

Chapter 7

3 months later.

"How are you feeling?" Logan's asked that everyday for the past week.

"Good and I don't thing the babies are coming today." He nodded and put his hand on my belly. "Could you rub my feet?" He groaned.

"You've asked me that five times today." He put his head on my shoulder.

"And?"

"And I've done it six times."

"You did the last one without me asking." I put my hand on his hand that was on my belly. "Sometime this week."

"You said that last week." He lifted his head off my shoulder to look in my eyes.

"No, you said that, not me." I poked him in his ribs.

"Yeah, I gues I did." He kissed me and wrapped his arms around me. "I love you." He wispered in my ear and started to nible on it.

"I love you, too." And I kissed him.

"OK! Break it up." Lerreta came in the living room. We stopped kissing but Logan kept an arm around my shoulders. Lerreta sat my me. "When are the babies come?"

"I think sometime this week." I said.

"Great. Until then, we're going to have fun." She grabbed my hand and pulled me up.

"What are we going to do that won't involve alcohal or me moving a lot?" She started to pull me to the door.

"Hey!" Logan grabbed my other hand. "I had her first." He tried to pull me back to the couch.

"No you didn't. I had her since we where fourteen!" She pulled me to the door.

"So, I'm going to marry her."

"That doesn't count."

"Yes it does."

"Not."

"Does." At this point my shoulders where hurting.

"Stop! Both of you." I pulled my hands free. "I can make my own choices."

"That's what you told your dad before you got pregnet." Lerreta pulled my arm.

"And you think I'm going to do something stupid?"

"What? No, I know you better then that. You'll probably just hurt yourself."

"Then your saying here." Logan grabbed my hand. I snapped at that. I jurked free from them and stomped out.

"Was it something he said?" I heard Lerreta from the hall.

"Me? You where the one who wanted to make her go." Logan said. I grabbed a vace from a table in the hall and through it at the door. It ricishade in and I didn't hear anything else from them. I headed up to my room and laid on the bed. After about an hour there was a knock on the door. "Joey? Can we come in?" I didn't answer and rolled on my side. The door opened and I heard them come in. "Joey?" He wispered. "You asleep." He walked around the bed and I glared at him when our eyes met.

"Out." I said bitterly.

"Honey, I know your still mad but we have something to say."

"Unless it's an appology, out."

"Joey, we're sorry about the way we acted." Lerreta climbed on the bed and sat behind me. She was quiet for a couple moments. "Logan, your turn."

"Honey, we where just doing what we thought would make you happy." He sat in front of my and took my hand.

"Sounds like you two rehersed." I said and they laughed.

"No, Lerreta just bickered." Logan said.

"All you did was get a beer and smoke a cigar." She snapped. "And-"

"OhMyGod! Shut up, both of you!" I rubbed my temples.

"Sorry." They said at the same time. I sat up.

"Help me up so I can get something to eat." Logan pulled me up. As we walked out the door, Lerreta rushing to my side.

"So, girly, who you want to spend time with?" I groaned.

"Do you want me to brake another vace?"

"As long as it hits him." She pointed to Logan. "And not me." I laughed, put my hand in Logan's and wrapped my arm around Lerreta's shoulders.

"I don't know how I can put up with your guys' bitching." I felt them both glare at me. "But I still love you both." We went to the living room and watched tv. After about an hour I Logan and I went to bed. He was breathing on the back of my neck. It was about 11 when I felt a sudden pain that I couldn't ignore. I got up and started to pace. The cramps came and went. And over time they kept getting worse. I crawled back in bed behind Logan and placed my head on his. I felt him squeeze my thigh.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" He mumbled.

"Can't." I said and he nodded. Then suddenly a huge cramp came and I rolled on my back holding my belly. "OhMyGod!" Logan rolled over.

"What? What's wrong?" 

"Cramps, major cramps." I groaned in pain. Logan picked me up and carried me to the bathroom.

"I'm pretty sure that a bath will help." I nodded and he drew the bath. I undressed and got in. The hot water helped a lot and Logan surprised me by get in with me. He wrapped his arms around me and I rested my head on his chest. "Better?"

"Much." I kissed him and it deepened after a few seconds. We where tounge wrestling when another big cramp came. "Shit!" I grabbed my belly. Logan rubbed my back to confort me. After it passed I put my head on his chest. We stayed there till the water got cold. Logan got out first and helped me up. When I was about to step out of the tub, my water broke. I looked down. "Time to panic." Logan pulled me out, grabbed a towel and started to whipe the water off. "I can do it myself." I took the towel and whiped off the rest of the water. Got dressed and we headed out of the room. We got Dad, Henry, Lerreta, and Jean. As they got up Logan and I headed toward the hospital wing. And when we where half way there, another cramp came. I hit my knees cursing very loud. Some of the students opened their doors to see what was going on. Logan told them to go back to bed but Kitty was the only one who didn't.

"Kid , go back to bed." Logan said stirnly. She put her hands on her hips and scrunched up her face.

"No! I'm coming with wether you like it or not." 

"Just let her come. I'm going to need more then just you to help me walk." Kitty stuck her tounge out at him and took my arm. "But your staying in the hall when they come." She nodded.

"Ok. If you want me to." She sounded sad. We kept walking  and as we opened the doors to the hospital wing, a huge cramp came and again I drop and screamed swear words. Henry, Jean, Scott, and Lerreta came rushing in.

"Joey, it isn't lady like to curse." Jean said.

"Easy for you to say your not the one in labor." I snapped. They got into a room, Logan helped me change into a hospital gown and onto the bed. The rest, except Kitty, came in. Henry measured to see if i could push. 8cm. Damn! 

"Give it about an hour or two." Henry said. I turned to Jean.

"Why is Scott here, again?" I asked.

"I woke him up as I got ready." She said as she put a cold washclothe on my forehead.

After an hour Henry measured again. "Yep, 10cm. When you need to, push.'' I nodded. Logan was on the right side of the bed and Dad was on the left, both holding one of my hands. After about ten minutes, I pushed. I screamed until it came out. "It's a boy." Henry said. Within a minute I heard him cry. Henry cleaned him up, wrapped him in a blanket, and gave him to me. He had a little black hair on his head and his hand where waving around as if they where trying to grab something.

"Hey there buddy." Then I felt a sudden urge to push. "Take him." I told Logan. He grabbed him and I grabbed the collar of his shirt and pushed. It came out sooner then my son.

"It's a girl." I heard her cry and then everything went black.
