My Friend, My Lover
Chapter 9: Training Session

*************************************************

The week progressed like any other for the residents of the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters. As usual, there were tests to study for, homework to get done, and relationships to manage. For the most part, it wasn't too bad in regards to how things were last week. That didn't mean there weren't stresses, but it was definitely more manageable this time around. And for some, they managed much better than others.

Throughout the week, both Scott and Jean remained in a fairly good mood, but they managed to tone it down considerably as things returned to a sense of normalcy. Yet despite a few rough patches, mainly those having to do with the lingering after effects of their breakup with Taryn and Duncan, they managed to keep their spirits up. While this did ease somewhat as the week went on, there was still a noticeable difference in them through the eyes of the people who best knew them. But in many ways, they still managed their mood better than most of the others, which was proof enough to them that they had made the right decision in pursuing a friends with benefits relationship together.

Granted, it was still a little awkward being around Duncan and Taryn. Having ended their respective relationships in a not so good manner did leave an impact and they sought to avoid each other for the most part. Yet still...In the minds of Scott and Jean, it was for the best. They knew that their relationships were doomed and they had something new to build upon. But around them it was by no means easy.

Duncan was still clearly bitter and had been spreading rumors about Jean incessantly in order to maintain his rep. At times, they were hard for Jean to ignore and some of them were pretty bad...The worst being that he had gotten her into bed and she had been such a lousy fuck that he was forced to break up with her. But in the back of Jean's mind, she knew that Scott could easily have argued that and in her current mood, even Duncan couldn't damper her spirits at this point.

For Taryn, however, it was a bit more complicated. While she was still not too happy with Scott because of the rumors that Duncan had spread, seeing him more upbeat gave her some different feelings about her decision to break up with Scott. She couldn't get why he looked so happy now. Sure, they were rocky at best from the beginning, but did he have to look so together? He was just so stressed last week. What on Earth could make him change just like that? She wasn't quite sure, but it was definitely something that caught her attention.

Overall, with a slightly easier week upon them and an overall better mood, things were definitely looking up for Scott Summers and Jean Grey. They were genuinely hopeful that it would stay that way for now because being a teenager, a high school student, and an X-man wasn't getting any easier.

"Come on! Come on! Keep moving, team! Stay on target!" ordered Logan from the observation deck as he, Ororo, and the Professor watched the regulars run through their usual advanced level danger room course.

Down in the danger room, it was a chaotic scene complete with a space-like scenario equipped with paintball guns, laser turrets, smoke screens, and mechanical obstacles that stood poised to tear them to pieces. Yet despite all this, the team was actually doing quite good.

"Hmm...Their time and stats definitely seemed to have recovered since that little mishap last week," commented Xavier, impressed by many of these scores he was getting.

"Indeed...And this course is actually on a harder level," added Ororo, who was equally impressed by such improvement.

"Yeah, guess you were right about it just bein' a bad run last week, Ro," said Logan, keeping his gaze on the students below as they continued to run through their objectives, "I don't know what was makin' em so sloppy last time, but whatever it was, I think it's gone now."

"Oh yes...Without a doubt," grinned Ororo.

Back down in the melee that was their usual session as X-men, the loud noises of pandemonium continued to echo all throughout the area. Optic blasts cut through laser turrets, telekinesis bent and warped mechanical arms to the point of uselessness, bony spikes shattered paintball guns before they could even get a shot off, and plenty of sparks flew as the team of young mutants made their way through the tumultuous course.

"Nightcrawler! Rogue! Converge on my mark!" ordered Scott as he leapt through a pair of buzz saw obstacles and fired off a couple of optic blasts that took care of a few laser turrets.

"Already zhere mien friend!" affirmed Kurt as he teleported himself and Rogue to the open area that had just opened up, "Ve're almost at zhe finish line!"

"I know, but don't cross it yet!" said Scott as he met up with them through the smoke screen, "We have to cross together and that means waiting for Jean, Spyke, and Shadowcat."

"Don't worry about us, Cyclops! We're almost there too!" said Evan as he and Jean took care of a few turrets while Kitty phased through the ground based obstacles.

"Yeah, just clear out the final stretch so we can make a clean finish!" said Jean, using a few telekinetic shields to block out the blasts from a few of the surprise guns that popped up out from some of the hidden areas that were probably thrown in at the last second by Logan.

"Already on it!" affirmed Scott as he, Kurt, and Rogue held their ground while they waited for their teammates.

Jean, Kitty, and Evan kept on moving even as a couple more smoke bombs went off that threatened to obstruct their view. Luckily, Jean managed to use her telekinesis to clear it out before it got too thick, so it didn't really slow them down all that much. Once they took care of a few remaining obstacles, they saw their friends up ahead ready and waiting for them with the finish line just in the distance.

"Hurry up, y'all! Just a little bit further!" said Rogue as they all began to make a break for their final objective.

"Like, cool your jets, Rogue. We're making great time!" said Kitty as she phased through a few mini buzz saw armaments, shorting them out in the process.

"Yeah, we may even break a record with this one!" said Evan, taking care of the last remaining paintball guns.

"Don't get cocky guys. It isn't over until the final objective is complete!" said Scott as he led the way towards the finish line.

The team of regulars stayed close as they made a dash towards their final goal. Along the way, they were surprised by a few last minute obstacles meant to slow them down, namely a wall of fire and a trap door. But Jean managed to get them all over the trap door while Scott and Evan took care of the fire, disabling each flame thrower.

"Come on team! We're almost there! Just one more part to go!" yelled Scott over the noise.

"Goody! This is my favorite!" grinned Kitty, knowing full well what they were about to face.

The last thing standing in their way now was only a few robot-like humanoids armed with stun blasters. But thanks to their current momentum, they managed to muscle their way through with Kitty taking care of most of them with her phasing powers while Rogue, Kurt, Scott, Jean, and Evan took care of any that remained.

Once the robots were out of the way, there was nothing left to impede their path. They each crossed the finish line, letting out a final triumphant gasp as they stood victorious in the task that they had been assigned. They took a few moments to catch their breath, waiting to hear the final verdict from Logan. But they were all optimistic, for this had definitely been one of their better runs.

"Not bad team...Not bad at all," said Logan with an uncharacteristically approving tone in his voice, "A new record in fact."

"Yes! I knew it!" said Kitty as she gave Kurt a high five.

"We rule! We rule!" chanted Kurt, doing what could only be described as a sub par victory dance.

"Yes, and exemplary job, X-men," said Professor Xavier over the intercom in an approving tone, trying to hold back his laughter from seeing Kurt's so called victory dance, "I'm glad to see that you all have been making some significant improvements. And for this reason, I can see no need to rerun the scenario, so go ahead and take the rest of the day off. You've most certainly earned it."

Another round of jubilation came over the young team of mutants as they began to make their way out of the danger room with the rest of the day free for them to do what they pleased. It was quite a major shift compared to last week, but they tried not to think about that now as they all looked forward to a relaxing evening.

"This is sweet! Now I can, like, finally catch up on my tivoed collection of Lost!" chirped Kitty.

"Dang it, Kit, Ah don't know what ya see in that show," said Rogue, rolling her eyes somewhat, "It's just some recycled TV drama trash that they threw in to get ratings."

"Hey, that doesn't make it any less fun to watch," shrugged Kitty, "Anybody want to join me?"

"I'll take that offer. And I'll bring zhe popcorn!" said Kurt, who seemed to share Kitty's enthusiasm.

"Yeah, I think I'll join too," said Evan, "Everybody at school has been talking about it so much, so I guess I might as well see what the big fuss is."

"Vell I think you'll like it mien friend," said Kurt in an encouraging tone, "And besides, it's got a lot of good looking girls stranded on a desert island!"

"Okay then, count me in!"

"Ugh, grow up you two," muttered Rogue.

"Vhat? Thinking about good looking vomen isn't grown up?" argued Kurt with an innocent grin.

"Yeah, like, lighten up Rogue," said Kitty, "What about you two? You want to join us?"

Scott and Jean thought about that for a moment. As nice as watching TV like regular teenagers who didn't have to worry about the issues of being a mutant 24/7 sounded, the thought of watching with Kurt, Evan, and a tub of popcorn just sounded like a volatile mixture. Along with Kitty, it just seemed like too much energy for them to have to deal with.

"Thanks Kitty, but I think I'll pass," said Jean, "I'd rather use this time to catch up on my reading."

"Yeah, I'll have to pass too. I'm going to hit the gym for a while instead," said Scott.

"Suit yourself guys," said Kitty as she, Kurt, and Evan made their way to the elevator, "But, like, seriously you two...All work and no play isn't healthy."

"Hey, we know how to have fun!" said Jean in her defense.

"Yeah...Sure ya do," said Rogue sarcastically, choosing to head up as well where a good book was waiting for her.

As they made their way up to the ground floor, Scott and Jean lingered for a bit. Unlike the others, they planned to shower and change before heading up rather than waiting for bathrooms to crowd up later on as they so often did. And in addition, it was nice to just hang around and catch their breath for a moment rather than running off to indulge in the oh so wonderful world of popular television.

It felt good for once to go through a session that wasn't plagued with complications or mishaps as had been the case for the last few weeks. Finally, it seemed as though their luck had finally changed. They were definitely due for a stellar performance and compared to last week, they had been much more efficient and focused. And while this shift was unexpected for the most part, both Scott and Jean had a pretty good idea of where it had come from.

"Man it feels good not to be yelled at for once after a session," said Scott as he and Jean made their way down towards the locker areas, "It felt kind of weird though...Not hearing Logan cast us that cynical tone about us being sluggish."

"Yeah, that's something I don't think any of us are used to," said Jean in agreement, "But hey, I'll take it over his yelling any day of the week."

"Oh definitely!"

As the two youths found themselves just outside the ladies changing room where much of the girls kept their uniforms or danger room apparel, they found themselves lingering for a little while longer. It wasn't often that they got the chance savor a big accomplishment like this, for such times were few and far between. And it was certainly a nice change to come out of the danger room early for once, not having to spend the rest of the night recovering from exhaustion.

"You really took charge back there, Scott," commented Jean as she thought back to certain points during the session, "I could really see a difference compared to last week's session."

"Yeah, I could say the same for you," said Scott, responding with a smile, "You looked a lot more focused this time around. You didn't miss a single cue, you didn't fall behind at any given point, and you stayed focused every step of the way."

"What can I say? My mind was just a lot less cluttered than it was last week."

"Yeah, mine too. I found myself concentrating a lot better during this run and I don't think I was nearly as sluggish as I was last time."

"Yeah, no kidding."

A brief silence then came over the two friends as their thoughts began to drift towards the reasons for such a dramatic shift. It really wasn't that hard to consider the possibility of their new 'activities' were a factor. After all, that had been the only real thing that had changed since last week. And since traditional logic stated that things didn't happen without reason, it didn't take long for them to really give some serious thought to it.

"Hey Jean...You don't think that it's all because we...You know," he said, blushing somewhat at the mention of it, mainly out of habit for the most part.

"What? You mean the fact that since our last training session, we just happened to become sexually active?" she said with a wry grin, "Can't say it's not a possibility. After all, it really did help us both in terms of stress. Maybe that just extended here without us really thinking about it."

"Yeah, I guess it does kind of make sense. I mean, how else could there be such a big difference?"

"None that I can think of at the moment, Slim," she said, playfully snaking her arms around his neck, "And who knows...Maybe if the reason for our more efficient sessions is because of hot sex, maybe we can try to use that. After all, it's not like it would be all that much of a chore."

"Definitely!" said Scott with a husky grin as he found himself placing his hands on her hips.

They stayed in this state for a few moments. It truly was remarkable to think that of all the things that could potentially help them with training session, sex would be one of them. It wasn't too great a shock, after all it had done wonders for their stress as of lately. But still, it was quite incredible to think that this of all things was helping them.

"Well, I had better change," said Jean, finally managing to break the embrace, "We've got a free evening ahead of us and I don't think we should squander it."

Jean then started to make her way into the girls changing room, but for Scott, those words about sex being a means of helping them in their training and about not squandering a free evening held a little more resonance than he let on. And as he watched Jean's sexy ass in that tight fitting uniform sway with her elegant stride, he felt an insatiable desire form within him. Few things could impact Scott's legendary self control, but Jean Grey just had this way of influencing him in a way nobody else could. And after they started this whole 'friends with benefits' deal, she had him thinking on a whole new level. And part of that mindset is what drove him to not merely suppress such feelings, but to embrace and pursue them.

With a grin on his face, Scott boldly entered the girls' changing room which Jean had entered...An act that he would have considered unthinkable a mere week ago. But things were different now...Very different. And there was no going back for either of them at this point.

Jean was already at the locker where she kept her uniform, but she could easily sense Scott following her in. She could also sense his insatiable lust...The yearning sexual need that seemed to pour off him as she felt his eyes run up and down her body. This desire quickly had an effect on her as well, for she knew what he wanted to do to her and she was not going to fight it. After all, part of the arrangement was to be there for one another when they had that need that they just had to fulfill and even if it was in a changing room, that didn't make much of a difference.

"Hmm...I don't know if you're supposed to be in here, Mr. Summers," she said, in a playful tone, "Just imagine what the others would think if they knew if you, Mr. Military, walked into the girls' changing room for a nice fuck after a session?"

"Honestly Jean...Do you think I care?"

His husky tone sent her body into a fit of wanting desire, causing her legs to weaken and her insides to heat up. Suddenly, the tight fitting uniform became incredibly itchy and uncomfortable...Feeling as though being naked would be so much nicer.

She was still facing away from him as Scott snaked his arms around her waist, trailing kisses down her neck. Jean responded by undoing the hood to her uniform, allowing her beautiful, fiery red hair to fall free and allowing Scott's lips to touch her yearning skin. Closing her eyes, Jean let her libido take over, knowing Scott wanted this and as his friend and lover, it was her responsibility to give it to him.

"Mmm...That uniform must be so uncomfortable, Jean. It's practically skin tight," said Scott, running his hands up the curves of her body, evoking a soft purr from the young redhead.

"What can I say? I'm not ashamed of my body," she replied as she continued to moan and savor Scott's touch, "But you're right about one thing...It does get uncomfortable at times. Care to help me with that?"

"Why...It would be my pleasure, Ms. Grey."

Scott's hands soon found their way to the zipper located on her upper back. Jean leaned on the locker and arched her body as she felt him slid it down and loosen the tight uniform that now felt so uncomfortable. He also trailed his lips down her back as well, tracing a path along the newly exposed flesh as he peeled the skin tight garment off, sliding it all the way down her body along with her underwear until she was standing completely naked and exposed to him.

"Ahh...That feels better," said Jean as she turned to give Scott a full frontal view of her sexy, nude body.

"I'll say..." said Scott, his mouth growing dry as his eyes ran from her voluptuous breasts, down to her plush pussy, and along her sexy legs.

"But now..." she said as she snaked his arms around his neck, "I think you're a tad overdressed Mr. Summers."

"I think you're right my dear. Why don't you help me with that as well?"

"I guess it's only fair..." she purred as she felt the large bulge in his pants pressing up against her naked skin.

Jean's frantic hands began to roam over his sexy upper body while he worked on exploring her naked flesh. His uniform was tight like hers, leaving so little to the imagination in terms of his manly form. But nothing beat the full view in Jean's mind and she was quick to express that as she quickly found the tucked hem of his uniform and promptly slid it off up over his head.

Jean flashed him a sexy grin as she took in the sight of his exposed upper body and while he tossed the garment off to the side, she eagerly went for his pants, gently rubbing the bulge that had formed around his crotch.

"Mmm...Did I really make you that horny just by wearing my uniform?" she said in a sensual tone as she felt his hands tease her breasts.

"I'd be lying if I said you didn't. Hell, pretty much anything you wear makes you look sexy in my mind," he said, giving her nipples a little pinch, causing her to let out a light gasp.

"Ooh...You have a way with words, Scott. I like that. It's so...Arousing."

Scott then soon found himself capturing her lips in a deep kiss, his tongue now wrestling with hers as his hands continued to rub and squeeze her sexy breast. This seemed to fuel Jean's growing desire as well, causing a strong wetness to form in her pussy, her body now craving the presence of his hard dick.

Soon, that hunger drove her to new heights as she fell to her knees, trailing her lips down his sexy muscles in the process. Scott felt as though his tight fitting pants were going to burst under the pressure of his throbbing erection and didn't know how much longer he could keep it confined. But Jean quickly freed him of his burden, giving his tight blue pants a firm tug and sending them falling to the ground, leaving him completely naked.

Now that he was standing here before her in all his nude glory, Jean found herself stroking and teasing his rock hard dick with her tongue, knowing how much he deeply wanted it. Scott's breathing was turning ragged as his insatiable desires poured through their link, giving her a good idea of just how horny he was at the moment.

"Oh God Jean! Yeah...That's it...Suck me...Please suck me," he urged her.

Flashing her lover a sultry glance, Jean adhered to his wishes and took the rock hard organ in her hand and devoured it with her mouth. Immediately, Scott's head fell back as he felt her tease his cock with her mouth. Her head bobbed back and forth along the length of his penis as she used her tongue to please her lover all along he way. His placed his hands upon her head, gently grasping the beautiful, fiery red hair in his hands as he guided her along in her oral teasing.

"Mmm...You like that, Slim?" she said as she removed his cock from her mouth briefly, giving it a few strokes with her hand.

"Oh yeah! Oh I love it!" he moaned, his tone practically begging her for more.

Jean took the cock in her mouth again, sucking and licking his hard member in a sexual daze. She could hear his breathing becoming increasingly ragged as the yearning desire within him continued to build. He was loving this so much...Jean sucking his dick. But there was something else he wanted even more than that...Something he was growing all too impatient for as he found himself unable to hold back any longer.

"Jean...Come on...I want you. I want to fuck you," he said, his tone burning with intense desire.

With a few more quick teases of his dick, Jean returned to her feet, feeling the streaks of wetness within her pussy trail down her inner thighs. She wasn't sure just how much of this desire was his or how much was hers, but at this point she didn't give a damn. She wanted his dick right now and he wanted her pussy. And damn it, that's what they were going to get.

Once she was back on her feet again, Scott assailed her lips with his as he pinned her up against the locker, firmly gripping her hips and running his hands along her thighs in preparation for the next step.

"Mmm...Oh yeah," he moaned, loving the warm touch of her naked Scott, "Jean...You really know how to drive a guy crazy."

" Oh stop you're sweet talking and start your fucking, Slim!" she urged him as she firmly grasped his hard muscles in her hands.

"Not to make a bad pun here, but you just read my mind, Jean," said Scott with a husky grin, wanting this woman right here, right now.

With his hands now firmly on her hips, Scott turned Jean around so that she was facing away from him and her sexy ass was right up against his pelvis. He could feel the heat between her legs and the slick area that had formed around her entrance. She was just waiting for him...Ready for his hard dick. And with his raging hard on in need of a nice wet pussy to fuck, he eagerly succumbed to his desires and began working his cock into the tight folds of her vagina.

"Oh yeah!" grunted Scott as he felt her tight pussy around his hard dick, "Oh it's so good, Jean! So tight!"

"Mmm...Glad you like it," she said, absorbing the feeling of his hard penis so deep inside her, "Now come on...Fuck me like I know you want to!"

Letting his throbbing desires take over, Scott began to thrust his dick in and out of her wet pussy. He kept a firm grip on her sexy ass, which helped to guide him as the hot feeling sent him into a world of sexual bliss. Soon, they both managed to establish a steady, vigorous rhythm with Scott fucking her from behind while Jean rocked her body along with his, moaning in delight. Her eyes were closed and sweat was beginning to consume them both as she felt his hard throbbing member thrash about in her hot pussy.

Soon, the sound of his flesh pounding against hers filled the area. Their moans grew increasingly louder as the vigor fueled their sexual energy, sending them both into a world of pleasure. Scott's hands quickly worked their way from her ass around to her breasts, capturing them in his strong hands and rubbing them with great passion as he continued to satisfy his powerful urges with this woman that meant so much to him.

"Ugh-uh-uh-oh Jean! Fuck! Oh-oh God! It's so good!" he grunted as he continued to plow into her, working the rhythm in the way she liked it so she could share in the pleasure.

"Oh-oh-oh Scott! Come on! Ugh-oh yeah! Oh fuck me! Fuck me!"

"Jean-ugh-gonna...Cum...Soon!"

Scott's grip on her breasts grew more firm as they both stepped up the rhythm, feeling his climax coming on strong. He plowed into her with increasingly greater force, thrusting his dick into her wet pussy as deep as he could, penetrating into her womb and hitting all the sensitive areas along the way. Finally, as the pace of his pumping finally slowed, he tightly grasped her breasts and thrust up into her as far as he could and shot his load into her wet domain.

"OH JEAN! OH-OH-OH YEAH!"

The feeling of his hot semen filling her pussy caused Jean to moan as well, feeling the great pleasure that Scott had experienced from his release through their link. However, she didn't cum despite this, her pussy still throbbing for an orgasm.

"Scott...Please...I want more...I need more," she gasped, his cock sliding out of her as she turned around to pull him into a passionate embrace once again.

Although Scott was a little spent from his climax, he knew that Jean deserved the same pleasure he had and had every intention to deliver. Only this time, he would let Jean do the fucking.

"If that's what you want...Then I guess it's my job to make sure you get it," he said, still short of breath.

"Mmm...You're so sweet," she said to him, drawing him into another kiss.

Taking the initiative, Jean pinned Scott onto one of the benches near the lockers so that he was lying flat on his back. His dick was once again growing harder and stiffening with arousal. Jean hovered over him briefly, giving his member a few firm strokes to help prepare it for another round. And once he was hard again, she positioned herself over him and guided his cock to her wet, throbbing entrance.

"Yeah...Oh Scott, it's so hard," she said in a deep, sultry tone as she felt the head of his penis rub against the wet lips of her labia.

"Then go ahead Jean...Enjoy it. I know you want it too," said Scott in response, feeling her wet juices seeping out of her tight folds.

With a sexy grin, Jean readied herself for entry once again. She was now facing away from him, her legs spread so she was straddling his pelvis and supporting herself on her hands. Scott's hands were on her hips, occasionally reaching around to stroke the wet area around her vulva and labia. And with her body so desperately in need of a release, she let out another deep, content moan as she practically impaled herself on his hard cock.

"Oh yeah! Oh fuck it's so good!" moaned Jean, savoring the sweet bliss of having her pussy being filled by a nice, hard dick.

"That's it Jean-ugh-that's it! Ugh-ugh-come on! Ride me! Oh God-ride me till you cum!"

Jean's moans once again filled the room as she began working her pussy up and down his dick. He guided her along the way, keeping a firm grip on her hips and working her wet folds, helping to further stimulate her burgeoning pleasure. She rode him with the same vigor as he had earlier, fucking him with the passion, pleasure, and energy that she was quickly finding herself becoming addicted to. It felt so good...So warm...So mind numbingly wonderful. And now as close friends and lovers, they sought to enjoy such pleasures to their full, unabated extent.

Jean was practically screaming from all the shots of pleasure that coursed up through her body as a layer of sweat formed on their naked bodies. Soon, Jean felt the need to change positions again and turned around so that she was facing him now and he could watch her as she rode his cock into a world of bliss. This also allowed him to touch her breasts again, which helped to further her growing pleasure.

She could feel her orgasm building. It was coming on strong as she kept riding him harder and harder, wanting to experience this peak so badly. Scott may have initiated this, but she sure as hell was going to get as much out of it as he had.

"Scott-Scott-oh Scott!" she gasped, her breathing turning into panting as her body bounced up and down, her hips gyrating in a circular motion as she rode his cock, "Ugh-oh God! I'm so close! Scott I'm going to cum!"

"Mmm...Jean," said Scott in a deep, husky tone as he began thrusting up into her cunt with increasing force, "Come on! Oh fuck-come on! Oh yeah, that's it! Come on! Let me make you feel great!"

With his cock plowing into her wet folds and her body riding him with such vigor, she could feel the overwhelming rush of her climax coming over her. Her pussy was now beginning to throb as all the pent up bliss was about to boil over in a powerful rush of sexual euphoria. Scott could feel it coming to, the sudden tightness around his dick signaling to him that she was about to explode. Through their link, the sensations hit him as well...Sending him to the brink as well for the second time.

Only one final thrust was needed to send them over the edge...One final movement to make this little fuck complete. Scott took charge as he maneuvered his body into an upright position, Jean's legs still straddling his pelvis as he took a firm hold of her sexy ass and delivered the final push...Sending his lover into a world of ecstasy as her head flew back and she let out a final orgasmic moan.

"OHHHH SCOTT!"

"JEAN!"

Thanks to his now upright position, Jean managed to throw her arms around her lover as she held on for the rush of pleasure that quickly inundated her body. Scott returned her embrace as he felt her tight pussy clamp down on his hard member, releasing a wave of her hot juices upon him in an orgasmic mix of euphoria.

This got Scott to cum again as well, causing him to shoot another load of his semen into her vagina, mixing his fluids with hers in a warm pool of sexual contentment. It wasn't as big as his first orgasm, but that didn't make it any less mind numbingly good as he captured her lips in one last passionate kiss, warmly embracing the sweaty, naked body of his lover in an aura of unbridled joy and contentment.

"Mmm...Damn that was good, Jean," said Scott as their lips parted, a wide smile now dominating his face.

"Glad you enjoyed it," said Jean, returning his smile as they stayed in an embrace, simply enjoying the feeling of their naked bodies, "Guess this means you've gotten your workout."

"I'll say," said Scott with a grin, "You really are too good to me, Jean."

"Hey, it's like you said, Slim...We're the best of friends and the best of lovers. You were there for me when I needed it. The least I can do is be there for you."

That got Scott to smile as he ran his hand down the side of her beautiful face, amazed that he had a woman like this to call his lover. Even though there was so much more he wished he could have with her...For now, he was content with this even if there was so much more that they could have together.

"Thanks Jean...That really means a lot to me."

"Anytime Slim," she said, giving him one last kiss on the cheek, "Now if you don't mind, I think we both are in serious need of a shower."

"Yeah...Wouldn't want Logan to get too suspicious," said Scott, thinking that was definitely a good idea given how protective he was.

"Oh definitely," she said as they reluctantly parted.

However, Scott wasn't quite done yet.

"Hey Jean..." he said, drawing her attention once more as she grabbed a towel out from her designated locker.

"Something else on your mind, stud?"

"Well I was wondering...Think there's enough room in the girls' showers for me?" he said, another husky grin forming on his face.

Jean couldn't help but smile at that, for it really showed just how playful Scott could be. Few others got a chance to see this side of him...But she was one of the lucky few. And given that the last shower they had together had been so memorable and fun, why waste yet another opportunity to experience the same joy as before?

"Hmm...I think we can accommodate that," she said as she took his hand and led him over to the shower areas, where they definitely had plenty of washing to do.

*************************************************

Things settled in the Xavier Institute as the evening hours set in. After having finished their session early, everybody seemed to find comfort in being able to relax for once. The New Mutants had even organized a little football game out front that many decided to partake in, but for the most part it was very easy going...A state that proved to be nothing short of therapeutic for the constantly stressed mutant institution.

Later on, Ororo, Hank, and Scott had helped make a nice dinner for everybody and things were fairly casual for the most part. Having been careful to cover their tracks, Scott and Jean made sure they washed themselves well enough so that Logan would smell anything on them. And so far, it didn't look as though he suspected anything too great...And that's exactly how they intended to keep it.

Conversation at the dinner table was fairly lively as everybody seemed to be in good spirits after the session. There was discussion on everything from school, to training, and of course, the usual gossip. If one were to see it for themselves, it almost would have looked like any other family eating dinner together...Only this family just happened to be comprised of a bunch of super powered mutants.

After the meal was finished, both Ororo and Jean handled the dishes while everybody went off to enjoy the rest of the evening. Dishes usually went pretty fast when Jean helped out, thanks largely to her telekinesis. Plus, it also served as good practice for her and helped to keep her control sharp.

Her mood remained good, especially after having had a nice little fuck after their danger room session to help ease their tension so to speak. Both her and Scott's demeanor was certainly not lost upon the others, who were still getting used to them being so chipper. Such a radical change was not lost upon Ororo, who couldn't help but smile in seeing both Scott and Jean so much happier and less stressed than before. She guessed that it was because Jean had really taken her earlier advice to heart, even more so than she ever could have imagined.

"I think that's the last of them, Ro," said Jean as she floated the last batch of dishes into the kitchen and piled them near the sink where Ororo was already washing them.

"Thank you, Jean. Your help is always appreciated," said the wise older woman in a warm tone.

"Hey, it's the least I can do," said Jean, returning her smile as she began to dry off some of the pots and pans.

Seeing her smile like that was a testament to just how different things were with her compared to last week. Hell, last week she could barely keep the dishes steady and ended up doing it all by hand. But neither of them wanted to think about that. It seemed so long ago even though it was just a week. But in that time, so much had changed and it was thanks largely to the advice that Ororo had given her...Which had already exceeded Jean's expectations on so many levels.

"Well I must say it's good to see you in high spirits again, child. One would be hard pressed to think of you as the same person from this time last week," commented the former weather goddess as she saw just how relaxed the young redhead was.

"I guess I have you to thank for that, Ororo," said Jean with a slight chuckle as she put away some of the pots, "Ever since Scott and I have...Well, you know...I feel so much lighter. I have no crappy boyfriend to deal with, no raging sex drive to manage, and even my powers are getting a bit more manageable. It's like all the tension and stress that's been driving me crazy these past few weeks has just melted away."

"Ah yes...So I suppose that you and Scott have come to an 'arrangement?'"

"Yeah, after the first couple of times, I think it was abundantly clear that we both need something like this. After all, there's enough to worry about in this world with school, sports, and mutant powers that it's nice not to have to worry about how to manage my sex drive anymore."

"And given how he's been acting as well, I take it Scott is in agreement," stated Ororo, once again finding herself laughing.

"Yeah, I know, I know...But to be fair, his sex drive is as intense as mine. That much he's shown me since we started doing it," said Jean, smiling as she though back to what she had experienced with Scott thus far.

"I see...Well I'm happy for the both of you. It really seems to have had a positive effect on both your moods and your overall demeanor," said Ororo, always glad to see some of the students so happy.

"Yeah, and I think it even played a part in our danger room performance. I mean, how else could we improve so quickly?"

"I guess it just goes to show you how powerful a force sex can be if you go about it in the right manner."

"Oh definitely!" said Jean with great enthusiasm, "I can safely say that it's really done wonders! Not just for me, but for Scott as well. I honestly can't say I've ever seen him smile so much."

"Yes, well I think everybody has taken note of that. And after seeing the both of you in such a rut, it really is a relief to me and many of the others for that matter to see the two of you in such high spirits."

"Hey, I have every reason to feel good!" said Jean, feeling too upbeat to care about the past at this point, "Times are good, life is manageable, and my sex drive is finally under control thanks to Scott."

"Well I'm glad to hear that, Jean," said Ororo, finding this upbeat version of Jean to be nothing short of remarkable, "And if you don't mind me asking...How is it? You know...The sex?"

Jean couldn't help but blush at that, for this woman was like a mother figure to her and pretty much everybody else at the institute and here she was asking how good Scott was in bed. But in the spirit of optimism, Jean felt as though she owed her as much since it was her that she got the idea to have this friends with benefits deal in the first place.

"Oh, he's quite good...Very good in fact," said Jean, smiling at the memories of what they had done so far, "He's so strong and passionate...So thorough and powerful. He really knows how to go the distance, but he's also so considerate as well...Making sure I'm every bit as pleasured as he is. He knows how to fill me just right and work those hands of his like magic. And of course, there's that wonderful body of his that's just so ripped with manly muscles...God they feel so good to touch it makes me feel wet just thinking about it!"

"Okay Jean...I think you're getting a little overboard now," said Ororo, for that was a bit more than she wanted to know about the young man she had helped raise.

"Sorry, I just can't help it sometimes!" said Jean, finding it funny that she was talking about such things as if she were some sex crazed minx, "But it really is a great feeling. And even though we just started, there's just so much to explore...So much to experience. I honestly don't know how far it will go, but I think I'm really starting to get an idea of who I am sexually."

"And that's a good thing to explore Jean," said Ororo in an encouraging tone, "I know sexuality is a complex part of one's self and the more open and secure you are about it, the more balanced you'll feel about it in the long run."

"Yeah, but I guess it's kind of hard to balance it out from the beginning. I mean, there are still so many things I want to explore with Scott, but I'm not quite sure how."

"Well I think I may be able to help you with that, Jean," said Ororo as she set the dishes aside for a moment to grab a piece of paper.

"Really? How?" asked Jean curiously.

"Well given that I've been in your position before, I think I can offer you plenty of advice so you don't have to go through the trial and error that I did when I was your age. And also...If you really do want to explore, I think you should get out there and learn more about the world of the sensual. And I just happen to know the perfect place to do so."

Ororo then proceeded to hand Jean a slip of paper with an address on it. From the looks of it, it was still in Bayville, but it wasn't a place Jean recognized. Then again, after reading the name of the store, it kind of gave it away.

"The G-spot?" she said, not knowing if this was a real place.

"Trust me Jean...Check it out when you get a chance. You won't regret it."

"Well...I'll think about it. But I guess it couldn't hurt," shrugged Jean as she folded up the paper and slipped it into her pocket, "Thanks Ororo! You're the greatest!"

"Anytime child..." said Ororo, casting her young pupil one more smile before watching her make her leave with a wide smile on her face.

Along the way, Jean passed Logan as he entered the kitchen with what looked like a case of leftovers. And with an optimistic aura still surrounding her, she was quick to give him a warm greeting.

"Hey Logan!" she said, sounding more like Kitty than the Jean most everybody else knew.

"Red..." he said casually as he cast her a curious glance and watched her walk off, looking as though she was walking on air.

As dense as some people made him out to be, Logan was not oblivious. He could sense when something was up. It was a part of his animal instincts to notice inconsistencies. And within the past week, he had definitely been noticing something with Jean and Scott. Having known those two since they were twelve, Logan was particularly protective of them and knew them better than probably any of the students. And it was for that reason he was becoming increasingly suspicious of this strange shift in mood that they were experiencing.

"Hmm...What's with her?" he asked Ororo as he watched her put away the last of the pots and pans.

"Beats me," she said, knowing it was a blatant lie, "She's just in a really good mood I guess."

"On a Wednesday?" said Logan skeptically, not believing it for a second, "That ain't right."

"Oh come now Logan, what makes you say that?" asked Ororo, hoping to do some damage control in order to keep Logan from getting too suspicious.

"Simple logic, Ro. Things don't happen without reason and seein' as how she was so out of it last week, I don't see how it's possible that she just up and turns into this walking beam of sunshine. There's gotta be a reason...I just can't quite put my finger on it."

"Well at least she's happier now than she was last week. I was beginning to worry about her," said Ororo as she washed her hands and put the rags away under the sink.

"Yeah...Me too," said Logan, still not feeling any easier about it, "But if this continues, I'm gonna have to find out for myself."

Ororo cast her feral friend an exasperated gaze, thinking he really was too paranoid at times. Even when things were good, he was so suspicious. She knew it was part of his nature, but it really wouldn't do him, or the others for that matter, any good if he kept acting like this. Not to mention that if he found out about Scott and Jean's new sex life, chances were he'd react somewhat unfavorably to say the least.

But despite this, Ororo humored him.

"You worry too much Logan...You know that?"

"Hey, if I don't, then who will?" he said, putting the leftovers in the fridge and making his leave.

"Well one of these days, I'm going to try and get you to relax," she said to him, a hint of intent in her voice.

"Good luck with that, darlin'," said Logan with a skeptical laugh, "Cause when it comes to the kids, I never relax."

And with those final words, Logan made his leave, still very much suspicious of Scott and Jean. However, for Ororo, it was merely a means of further frustration. If Logan truly was going to pursue answers, then chances were she would have to do a little damage control for both Scott and Jean's sake.

Yet still, there was that lingering bit of uncertainty she felt towards his words. He truly was a man of mystery in every sense of the word and although she had known him longer than almost anybody else at the institute, there was still so much about him to learn. But whatever the mystery may be, he wasn't helping himself by stressing over every little thing. And when he said that he never was one to relax...Well, in Ororo's eyes, that was less a statement and more of a challenge as a curious smile spread across her face after watching him disappear from sight.

"Oh we'll see about that, Wolverine...We'll see."
