BEST BUBS! (Deadpool x Wolverine)

Gifted Youngsters

Logan stabs Wade.

"GOOD morning, you!" Wade says, backing out of the blade.

It was an accident, but Logan wasn't going to apologize.

"Was the music too loud? This edit is just so tasty! When it's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone. You did wrong, so—,"

"Shut. The fuck. Up." Logan groans, getting up to shower. 'It's too early for this shit' he thinks.

You girls know what I'm talking about.

  They can't see you wink.

  When Logan comes out of the shower, Wade is still there.

  Logan rolls his eyes and gets ready to point him out of the room.

  "Aren't I just a pain in the ass?" Wade pouts.

  Logan doesn't answer. "I'm going to the school," he says, slipping into his suit.

  "Without m—,"

  "Yes," he sighs, almost relieved.

  Today Logan would start to rebuild the school. Crime has gone down and students and parents have started to ask about the school again.

  "Should I call the team?" Wade was finally getting off the bed, finally.

"Sure. I could use some help." Wolverine nods.

  "But you don't want me there—?"

  "That's right."

  Wade lets out a nervous chuckle, offended.

  "You can leave now," Wolverine says as his mask falls over his nose.

  What in the shit is this? Make him nicer or I'm gonna stop studying my lines you piece of shit.

Wolverine meets the team at the school which needs some cleaning up. There were some students there already who had no place to go so stayed in the abandoned building. Most of the day was charity work.

Beast showed up near the end of the day.

  Wolverine gave him a warm welcome and they spoke about all the similarities of their friendship with the different versions of each other.

  He was an older man now, so he didn't do much physical work, but he was glad to help with the papers.

  There's a lot of work to do, but eventually, people are sent home to rest.

Wolverine gets back late. He walks in on the old lady petting the dog she claims to hate.

"I'm telling you, that new mothafucka needs to leave! He done put the damn TV in his room, it took me all damn day to find it."

"Sorry about that," Wolverine says, walking past her to the room.

"Mhm," Al says, careless that she was talking to the wrong person.

Wolverine takes off his suit and sits on the bed.

"Jesus," he sighs, thinking about the day. But once he's relaxed he watches TV quietly with Al.

Eventually, the hours turn into questions. 'Where's Wade?' 'What time is it?' 'Why can't I control myself?'

Just as Logan threatened to leave the couch, The front lock started to wiggle, being unlocked.

Logan runs his fingers through his hair... nervously.

"Whew. What a day off." Wade says, walking in and locking the door back.

"Yeah?" Logan asks, still watching the screen.

"Wouldn't you like to know, you backstabbing son of a bitch?"

Al laughs.

Logan shakes his head.

"I'll be in my room," Wade says, stealing the dog.

Logan goes to his room too.

  He sits.

  And waits...

  Expecting.

  He groans, realizing he'll have to make the move. He gets up to leave. Wade is on the couch.

  He looks over when Logan's door opens.

  They make eye contact.

  Logan turns back into the room, leaving the door open.

  Wade complies, getting up and entering the room.

  Wade flicks the light on and closes the door. Al was sleeping in the other bedroom, and Dogpool was asleep on the couch.

  They hold eye contact for a second, Logan's eyes calm but hungry. Wade's eyes, were firm.

  "Why couldn't I come to the school?" Wade asks. His tone suggests he won't do anything until he gets an answer.

  "There are children there," Logan says, scanning Wade's body.

  "What does that mean, you freak!?"

  Logan can see that Wade understands what he's saying. "Some of them are telepaths," he explains further.

  "Well now I feel bad for what I did today," Wade says.

  Logan assumes it's something to do with sex.

  "Where did you go?" He asks, trying to mask his concern with a shrug.

  "To the moon and back, I tell ya," Wade laughs.

  Logan stares.

  "I went on a date," he says.

  Logan laughs, more nervous than humored. "Sure you did, bub."

  "I like it when you call me that," Wade walks over to Logan.

  Logan can feel himself getting excited involuntarily. His hand slightly reaches toward Wade.

  "I just needed to talk to her, it's like she hasn't seen any of the progress we made. She sees your face everywhere and thinks I'm not doing any work," Wade begins to rant.

  "Huh," Logan sits there, a bit awkwardly now. It will be noticeable any second now.

  "Do you mind?" Wade was asking to sit next to him.

  Logan hesitates. But Wade is his closest friend. And Logan is a gentleman. And this time, Wade didn't seem to just want to tease and play, but to have a meaningful conversation.

  Logan makes room for him.

  "Yeah, how's she doing?" Logan asks.

  And the night is a talk.

  How disappointing. And where were you all day!? I saw a crazy porno I wanted to talk to you about. The guy had my mask on, and two of those toy Hulk hands, and he was just—

  Alright.
