━─━────༺༻────━─━

- you met charles while he was giving his presentation at oxford
- as soon as his eyes laid sight on you, they lingered for as long as possible (given he was in a room of students and professors and had to be somewhat competent)
- of course, he was even more intrigued upon realisation you too were a mutant
- you just seemed to check all his boxes
- this being said, he approached you afterwards and the rest was history
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- now onto being actually married
- charles had a tendency of waking up early
- not to mention he partially had to anyway with his professor duties
- but he was grateful for his habits as it gave him the chance to admire you in the mornings
- sleepy conversations and forehead kisses are a necessity with this man
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- let me tell you, if you're struggling with something, charles will instantly be next to you for assistance
- " need any help, dear? "
- no matter how stubborn you were at that point in time, you could never resist his nicknames
- speaking of which...
- his petnames variate from time to time; sometimes depending on his or your mood, the time, the situation, eccetera eccetera
- for example: sweetheart, darling, dear, love, beautiful/handsome are his 'main' nicknames
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- you were one of the literature professors at the mansion
- considering being there since opening, all the students (and, of course, teachers) knew you
- and they loved you
- and you loved them
- every single one was at yours and charles' wedding
- you both hadn't any children (yet-if you want any, that is) but you treated all of them as your own
- and they were, in a way
- particularly the ones from broken homes, but you of course loved them all equally
- you just wanted to make sure everyone at the institute felt safe and knew this was their home
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- charles cooks breakfast for you
- you weren't that great at cooking, your mutation and flames didn't go hand in hand
- but what did go hand in hand was you and raven
- she had been your best friend since before you were even dating charles
- fun fact: she was your maid of honour
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- proofreading each other's papers and schoolwork
- or just charles reading you his lectures for the next day or another piece of literature
- mainly the classics
- william shakespeare, jane austen, george orwell, charles dickens, mary shelley...
- you usually fell asleep, his voice and accent was just so comforting
- charles melts everytime, but softly keeps reading a while in case you woke up in the next moments because of the sudden silence
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- before getting lessons ready for the following week, weekends were spent taking early and or afternoon strolls through the mansion gardens
- even with the chaotic, young mutants running around; the scenery was beautifully tranquil
- those were unfortunately but usually disrupted by a query or need from a student
- or another burning tree...
- *cough, cough* scott *cough*
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- he adores washing your hair
- and brushing it
- or simply running his fingers through it
- no matter the length, it's just so consoling to him with the sense of closeness it brings
- most nights you drifted off to him doing this
(sorry if you're bald...)
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- taking care of him once raven and erik (and the other mutants) left
- and when alex and fellow teachers/students were drafted to war
- and the rest were sent home
- and when the brotherhood was brought into the mix
- and when logan showed up
- maybe i should leave the charles sympathy here
- our poor bald telepathy man:(
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- documentaries
- specifically true crime ones
- surprisingly, charles wasn't a fan of national geographic
- it made him feel old
- which he refused to believe he was
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- PARTIES
- mainly at the beginning of both your relationship and marriage
- but you liked to go back to your roots every now and again
- like when alex came back from war, a man as opposed to the teenager you once knew, you all (all of age) went to celebrate and bond at a bar similar to the one in london all those years ago
- needless to say, the older mutants did not expect to see their professors down shots like they were 24 again
━─━────༺༻────━─━
- randomly redecorating the mansion
- it was almost like every week there was a newly painted wall or different patterned sofa
- once half of the x-men that went on a minor mission came back to a whole refurbished school with a completely different color theme than before
- they thought they switched realities
(a/n: which peter should be used to)
- ...
- no shame.
