Warnings: the times they are a changing

'I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Till the landslide brought me down'

Yours and Charles future was so bright, it still is.
It's just at a ..landslide at the moment
Charles had just been shot in Cuba
And it's only been a week or so but he's not really accustomed to his new state yet, which means he's treating you and everyone like crap .

'Oh mirror in the sky, what is love
Can the child within my heart, rise above
Can i sail through the changing, ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life'

You weren't sure if you could put up with this, could you? Charles was the person you loved.
But did he still love you?
All these questioned ran through your head as you stood on your balcony at the Xavier mansion.
You saw Charles and Moira, she was pushing him along.
You knew what he was gonna do, and you honestly couldn't be more glad, truth be told you blamed Moira for Charles' condition.
But Charles doesn't see it like that. You are going start up this mansion as a school for young mutants to learn to control and use their mutations, together.
Hopefully he doesn't push you away.

'Well, I've been afraid of changing
Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you boulder
Even children get older and I'm getting older too.'

It's true you were afraid of change, but you would do anything for Charles, you were even talking about marriage before all... this, mess.
Maybe he still feels the same way?
You built your lives around each other. This can't break the foundation of your relationship, you won't let it

'Well, I've been afraid of changing
Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you boulder'

You walked out of yours and Charles' room and down the stairs
Many
Many stairs and corridors until you reached the main doors and walked outside and over to Charles.
You saw an unconscious moira and a sad Charles looking at her
"Charles!" You called and he looked up and you with something in his eyes, something you haven't seen in a little while.
"Charles I'm not going to let you fade away from me, I'm not taking my love down, i love you Charles, nothing's going to change that." You said with tears in your eyes.
Charles grabbed your hand and pulled you down onto his chair.
"I'm so sorry, I'm sorry that I ever doubted your love for me, and how I've been treating you."
You smiled up at him, he wasn't lying just to get you off his back, he was being truly honest.
"Can you forgive this man and love this man enough to ever become his wife?" Charles looked up at you and you put your hand over your mouth 'is this a proposal' you thought to yourself
"Yes, yes it is Y/N" he caressed your hand.
"How many times to I have to tell you to stop reading my mind Charles." You lean your forehead against his
"Always and forever my love."
"Yes," you whisper as you kiss him
You get up and push him back into the mansion.

'Even children get older and I'm getting older too
Oh I'm getting older too
Take my love, take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around and if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well, the landslide, bring it down'

Charles reached for you hand and held in on the way in then you felt something cold on your left hand, finger to be precise.
A ring
You were gonna cry.
"Mr and mrs Xavier, I like it don't you?" Charles looked up at you
"I love it." You say giving him a quick kiss and further walking into the mansion.

'And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide bring it down
Oh, the landslide bring it down'
