Healing Hearts ( a Wolverine X OC Story)

Chapter 6

The following morning Megan struggled to get out of bed. She could feel her head ready to explode but she dragged herself out of it and followed the sweet smell of freshly made coffee coming out of the kitchen. Like every morning, Storm was there preparing breakfast for the younger kids.

"Good morning you. Coffee? You look like you really need one."

Her comment made Megan wonder is she looked as bad as she felt.

"Yes please, I didn't sleep very well," Megan answered and sat on one of the kitchen stools.
"How are you? We didn't see you at all after the incident with Logan." Storm put a cup of coffee in front of Megan.
"Thank you, everything is good, we sorted it out."
"Really? When did that happen?" Storm replied surprised that they actually managed to talk without alarming the whole school.
"Last night." Her answer was short; she wasn't in the mood to tell the whole story this early in the morning.

Before Storm could push for more details, Logan appeared at the door.

"Here you are, I was looking for you. What's wrong with you, you look awful. Hangover eh?"

Megan rolled her eyes wondering why that was his first comment.

"I'm fine, I just didn't sleep very well."
"Well you better recover fast, we have a long day ahead."
"What are you talking about?" Storm intervened.
"Erm, I... I promised Logan something. It's not a big deal." She knew her answer wouldn't satisfy Storm but it was worth a try.
"What are you up to, you two?"

Logan felt that Megan wasn't in the mood to explain herself and honestly neither was he.

"We will tell you after we come back." He said in an attempt to end the conversation.
"Does the professor know about it?" Storm did trust Logan's judgment, but she couldn't help being curious about the sudden alliance between them.
"I said we 'll tell you when we come back," Logan repeated with a much firmer tone.
"Very well. Just try to stay safe and don't do anything stupid."

Seeing that Storm had let go of the matter he looked back at Megan.

"Thank you," she mouthed.
"I'll see you in an hour at the garage ok?" She just nodded her head as an answer and Logan left the room.
"By the way, I meant to ask you, did you by any chance find my keys or wallet that night?"
"Oh, yes we did, they are in my office. Come with me?"

The two women entered Storm's office. Storm opened one of her desks' drawers and pulled out Megan's belongings.

"We found your wallet, keys, and phone. Is that all?"
"Yes, thank you very much." She grabbed everything and immediately checked her phone, but apparently, the battery had run out.
"Can I borrow a charger please?"
"Sure, here, take mine." Storm pulled out a charger and gave it to her.
"Thanks, I've got to run, see you later."
"One last thing, I want you to remember that I am here for you if you need somebody to talk."

Megan looked at her, she knew that she could trust every single person in this house but she felt comfortable only with one of them.

"I know, thank you." She replied and run to her room to get ready.

One hour later Megan arrived at the garage where Logan was already waiting for her.

"Ready?" He asked as soon as he saw her.
"Yep, let's go," she walked towards the car and opened the passenger's door. "Can we stop by my apartment before? I need to take some clothes and other stuff?"
"You don't live at your parents' house?" Logan asked surprised before sitting in the driver's seat.
"No, not since my father died. Plus, I wanted to be near the Uni so I found another place to stay."
"Yeah, ok," Logan said and turned on the engine.
