My Friend, My Lover
Chapter 15: Sorting Out Issues

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

Logan was fuming. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. Scott Summers and Jean Grey, the first two students he had ever taught, were having sex in the danger room. The two kids he met when they were twelve years old were down there fucking like rabbits, moaning in delight, and having a hell of a time in the process.

But regardless of how shocking it was, it all made sense now. It explained their chipper moods, their eased posture, and the strange scents. They had been having sex with each other for who knows how long and it had been the source of this sudden change.

And it wasn't just sex. It was all out S&M, indicating that this had been going on for some time. The two students he helped raise were indulging and frolicking in all the joys of the sensual, both casual and kinky alike. He just couldn't believe it. He didn't even want to think about what else they may have done, but that didn't matter because it was all going to stop. He would see to that.

"Those two are in SO much trouble right now!" he growled, almost going into an all out berserker rage, "When I get my hands on em, I swear..."

Then suddenly, just as he turned around, he was met with a most unexpected presence...Ororo Munroe.

"Logan..." she said, judging that from the look on his face, he had just learned the truth.

"Ro?!" he exclaimed, stopping in mid stride before he could step out.

Ororo found herself quickly scrambling for words. She had been looking for Logan on the upper levels for a while now, hoping to keep him occupied while Scott and Jean ran their little session. But when she couldn't find him anywhere, she began to grow worried and felt compelled to check on the last place she would have wanted him to be. And apparently, she was too late.

"Out of my way, darlin'! I gotta take care of something!" he growled, preparing to barge past her and head straight for Scott and Jean, who were still going at it down in the danger room.

"Logan wait! What are you..."

"Look and see for yourself, Ro! But don't look too long. Because when I get through with them, I'm gonna..."

"LOGAN STOP!"

Few things on the face of the planet could have stopped the Wolverine when he was in a rage. But the stern voice of Ororo Munroe, a woman he considered to be one of his closest friends, was just one of those things that made him freeze even when he was lost in his animalistic mindset.

"Don't do this, Logan. Just stop for a moment and talk to me," she said in a clam, yet stern tone of voice.

Logan was forced to collect himself, which was a good thing in his mind because he had a tendency to be impulsive. But he was still brimming on the inside, partially from shock and partially from rage. This much Ororo could see, and if she was to have any hope of getting him to think rationally about this, she would have to keep him calm.

"Ro...Just look at the video feed. You'll see what I mean," said Logan as he directed the former weather goddess attention to the screens that offered a closer view of the 'activity' going on below, "It's Scott and Jeannie! They're..."

Logan couldn't even finish. But still, Ororo casually took a look at what she already knew was going on. And when she saw Scott and Jean on the raping table having sex like there was no tomorrow, her actually widened somewhat...For it was quite a sight.

"Oh my..." she said, sounding more intrigued than shocked.

She knew from the details that Jean had given her that she and Scott enjoyed sex, but she had no idea that they enjoyed it THIS much. It was really something. The looks on their faces, the motion of their bodies, and the sounds of passion echoing throughout the room was even more than Ororo had expected. And as much as she hated to admit it, the sight of these two young lovers was very arousing.

"Now ya know why those two have been all sunny and happy lately," grunted Logan, still waiting for his chance to head down there and give them a firm talking to.

"And I can't say I blame them," she said, a smile forming upon her face as she shook her head in amazement at what she was seeing.

This caught Logan off guard. She said it as if it wasn't a big deal. But what was even more disturbing was that she wasn't taking her eyes off of the scene below. She just kept watching it with this weird smile on her face.

"I had no idea Jean was so flexible," said the former weather goddess, admiring how Jean arched her body in order to give Scott the best possible angle to thrust into her, "And Scott certainly has filled out. He's definitely not the same undernourished twelve-year-old boy he was when he first arrived. All those tight, fit muscles...He's really become a wonderfully sensual man."

"Ro, what the hell are you..." began Logan, but he wasn't allowed to finish.

"It's okay, Logan. I know," she told him as she turned to face him.

"You...You knew about this?!" he said, his eyes widening with shock, "How long?!"

"Over a month actually. Almost two."

"Two months?! You mean to tell me that those two have been going at it like this for nearly two freakin' months?!"

"Well in simplest terms...Yes," she answered.

Logan ran his hands through his thick, wild hair. It was enough to learn that Scott and Jean had been having sex on a regular basis behind his back, but to learn that it had been going on for over a month was even more mind blowing. And the fact that Ororo had known all along wasn't lost upon them as well.

"But how could you...And why would they..."

It was humorous to see the ever raging Wolverine scramble for words. Ororo tried hard not to laugh because it really showed just how much this had affected him. After all, this did involve Scott and Jean, two students he was particularly protective of, and to deal with something like this was just not something he was prepared for.

But thankfully, what he couldn't say, Ororo could. She knew the truth and she knew the reasons behind it. And for Logan's sake, she wanted to make sure he understood before he did anything brash.

"They didn't tell you because they knew you would react like this, Logan," she began, moving in closer to him, "Was it really wrong for them not to want to reveal something like this to you, or the others for that matter? And even if they did, would have honestly acted rationally?"

Logan didn't want to admit it, but knew she was right and truth be told it made him curse himself. He had been ready to go right down there and castrate Scott without a second thought. And now that he had a chance to think about it, it did seem irrational on his part.

"This was their decision, Logan. I know because I was the one who helped them make it," said Ororo, showing no regrets, "They chose to do this. They chose to make love to each other. They wanted it. They needed it. And nobody had a right to stop it."

It was definitely a relief of sorts to know that this was consensual and not coerced. But still, it was a lot for Logan to process. And as his gaze drifted back over towards the monitors and he caught the looks of joy and ecstasy on their faces, his mind began to swirl once again. He just couldn't get around it. Scott and Jeannie...Making love.

"But why?" he found himself asking, "Did they just wake up one day and make the decision to have sex? I...I just don't get it."

Ororo laughed, which surprised Logan, but it had a calming effect on him. The more casual she was, the less big a deal it seemed. And as much as the former weather goddess hated to admit it, it was kind of funny seeing Logan so concerned about Scott and Jean. It was further proof to her that he did have a heart beneath that rugged, burly exterior.

"Oh Logan, is it really so hard to imagine?" she said to him, smiling back at him with a warm expression, "They're 18 years old for crying out loud. They're at that age where they're coming into their own. And sexuality is a part of that."

"I know. I know," said Logan, shaking his head in defeat, "But..."

"They're still human," she went on, "You think that they don't have their desires? And just look at all the stress that Scott and Jean have faced here at the institute. They're seniors in high school, they're role models of the team, they deal with powers they struggle to control, and they constantly put up with teasing from the others."

"Yeah, that part I believe," Logan conceded with a slight chuckle.

"Then is it really so hard to believe that they would seek some form or release? And have the results not been worth it? You've seen how much happier they've been. You've seen the positive effects it's had on their performance in the danger room. And besides, just look at them! Don't they seem to be enjoying themselves?"

Logan turned to the video screen. Scott and Jean were still going at it, their orgasmic moans filling the area. Looking closer, he got a full view of just happy they were as they made love. They smiled, kissed, and caressed once another with such great passion that it would have been hard for anybody to see anything wrong with such an act.

It took a moment for this to really sink in for the former living weapon. But the more he watched it, the less shocking it seemed. Neither of them was hurting one another. Hell, they were doing the exact opposite. And as much as he hated to admit it, it was quite a sight.

"I guess I can't get over them not bein' kids anymore," he conceded with a deep sigh, "It's just that...Scott and Jeannie were the first students I taught. Hell, they helped get me into this whole deal. If it wasn't for them, I don't know where I'd have ended up."

"Makes you feel a little old, doesn't it?" she grinned.

"Yeah, I guess it does. Even though I don't age much, I guess it really hits me when I see two kids I helped raise as full adults."

"And they say you don't have a heart."

"Watch it, Ro. Still got a reputation to uphold, ya know?" he said, flashing her a wolfish grin before taking one last look at the monitors.

It was reliving to see him come around, but there was still more to it than Logan was willing to let on. He was still dazed at the sight of his two eldest students having sex, but at the same time his rare show of heart kind of had an effect on Ororo...One that made her entertain a few 'special' thoughts that she had long been dwelling upon.

"I still don't get it though," he said, as he finally managed to tear his gaze away from the scene below, "Of all the ways to deal with stress, why do something like...This?"

Suddenly, a sultry grin spread across the former weather goddess's face. Even though Logan was one of her closest friends, she couldn't deny he was a very attractive man. He had the raging fury of an animal and the heart of a warrior. He was everything she fantasized about growing up...The powerful warrior with the animal-like prowess. And no man embodied both the animal and the warrior than Wolverine.

"You really want to know?" said Ororo in a seductive tone as she moved in closer towards Logan.

Logan's eyes widened at the sound of the graceful weather goddess's tone. If his enhanced senses weren't playing tricks with him he could have swore that there was a hint of sensuality. But that was impossible. She wouldn't go THAT far. She was royalty and he was a monster. Yet his senses kept telling him otherwise.

"Logan, if you really want to understand why two people so consumed by stress would turn to the sensual...Then maybe you should feel it for yourself. After all, you of all people could use a little 'stress relief' yourself."

"Ro...What are you..."

But before Logan could finish, Ororo Munroe crashed her lips upon his, pulling him into a passionate kiss. It had been so long for the former weather goddess...Too long. She and Logan had been friends for years. He trusted her and she trusted him. She had always found him to have this allure to him. But she never made a move.

Well she was through waiting now. Of all the people who needed to get laid, Logan was probably the most desperate whether he admitted it or not. And after having been deprived of sex herself, Ororo wanted to be the one to give it to him. After all, they clearly needed it.

"Mmm..." growled Logan, sinking into the kiss, the pent up emotions that he had long suppressed finally coming to surface.

Ororo felt Logan's wild hands roam all over her body. She could feel the pent up desire within him. It was causing her own needs to surfaces as well. His manly scent was enough to send her body into a fury of sensations. And it wasn't long before the scent of her arousal reached the Wolverine's keen senses.

"Do me, Logan. Do me right here in the observation deck."

"Ro...Are you sure?" said Logan, the animalistic craving welling up inside of him, "What if..."

"It's okay. I trust you," she told him, sensually running her hands down his well sculpted body, "Besides, you need this. I need this. It doesn't have to affect our friendship...No more than we allow it. Now come, Wolverine. Let me relieve you of your stress."

Logan simply flashed the beautiful goddess before him a husky grin...One that seemed to speak volumes as he finally allowed himself to give into his feral lust.

"Mmm...Can't say no to a goddess."

Letting his instincts guide him, Logan captured Ororo's lips in another passionate kiss. She let out a soft moan, feeling the need wash over her as she wildly caressed his hard muscles with her hands. They both kissed and touched in an almost primal manner, allowing their burgeoning needs to take over as clothes began to come off.

Logan's shirt was the first to go as Ororo swiftly pulled it off over his head. Then, it was Logan's turn, swiftly turning her around and undoing the cape to her X-uniform. He then went on to swiftly pull down the zipper along the back, allowing him to peel off the tight fitting body suit that hugged her curves so graciously.

"Ororo," he growled as he kissed along the newly exposed skin of her back.

Ororo's body swayed in a sexual manner as her uniform fell to the floor, leaving her only in a pair of panties. Her breaths were ragged as she felt Logan's lips upon her newly exposed skin. She had long wondered how it would feel and she even had a few stimulating dreams about it. But nothing could compare to the real thing.

"Oh Logan! I want you so much!" she moaned as he turned her around so that he was facing him again, her beautiful mocha orbs now there for him to say.

The sight of a beautiful, topless, white haired woman with the body of a true goddess standing before him was truly one to behold. He had always thought Ororo to be sexy, but seeing her exposed like this was just...Astonishing, for lack of a better word.

"Oh darlin'..." he growled deeply as he began to eagerly trail his lips down her cleavage, teasing and arousing her even more along the way.

Pinned up against console, Ororo's body went limp as she felt the wondrous sensations of Logan's frantic teasing. He was every bit as feral as his codename implied and she was loving every minute of it. She was getting very wet. It had been so long since she had enjoyed the pleasures of sex and the anticipation was driving her crazy.

The scent of her arousal had an affect on Logan as well, her intoxicating aroma sending him into a state of animal-like lust. Her hands roamed over his hairy body, as if his feral appearance was a genuine turn on for her...Something he certainly didn't expect.

"Mmm...Ro," said Logan in a deep, husky tone as he eagerly kneaded her large breasts in his hands.

"That's it, Logan. Let it out! Free your desires!" moaned Ororo, whose hands were already working his pants.

"I'm warnin' ya, Ro...Once I start, I don't know if I'll be able to stop" gasped Logan, not knowing how much longer he could hold back, "I don't wanna hurt ya. I..."

"It's okay, Logan. I know how much you struggle with this...Holding in that part of you that is still part animal. But you don't have to keep it up now. Just let it out. Don't worry, I trust you. Now come on! Let it all out!"

As if to reinforce her point, Ororo hitched a leg up around his side and grinded her body against his. That sealed the deal for Logan. There was no going back now. He was going to fuck this woman. He wanted to feel her skin against his...To make her moan in ecstasy. He wanted it, Ororo wanted it, and that was enough for them.

With her leg still hitched up along his side, Ororo finally undid the tattered jeans he often wore. His erection pressed against her, yearning to be free. And with a little repositioning, she freed his member from its confines.

Once it was out, Logan eagerly stepped out of his pants and renewed his fervent kissing. He let out deep groans that resembled that of an animal in heat. His fervent demeanor served to heighten her arousal, wanting to release all her pent up desires.

"Logan! Oh Logan!" she gasped, warm shots of pleasure coursing through her body.

Her gentle moans were music to his ears and it made him want to hear more from this beautiful woman. And with his animal instincts to guide her, he didn't make her wait a second longer for the pleasure she so sorely craved.

Taking her by the hips, Logan turned her around so that she was leaning over the main console, her sexy ass now pointed right at him. He continued grunting with animalistic lust as he trailed his lips down her back. He could smell her arousal, further fueling his primal need to mate. And in one swift motion, he slid her panties down her sexy legs, revealing the dripping wet folds of her pussy.

"Good God, Ro. Do I really make ya that wet?" he grinned lustfully.

"Oh yes, Logan! Yes! I've always found you attractive! Now please! Make love to me!"

"Anythin' you want, darlin'."

With a deep growl of animal lust, Logan thrust his hard penis up her wet pussy, filling her warm depths with his member. Near as he could tell, it had been quite some time since Ororo had done something like this. Her cunt was so wet and tight. And for him, he had almost forgotten the pleasures of a woman and how wonderful it felt.

"Oh-oh Logan!" moaned Ororo, her inner walls stretching for the first time in what felt like forever.

Logan spoke no more words as he pumped her pussy in a strong rhythm. His animal instincts guided him as he worked his cock at an increasingly fervent pace. He kept making the same growling noises, but that aroused Ororo even more, bucking her hips and fucking back with every ounce of energy she could.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh Goddess yes!" she moaned as Logan fucked her like she had never been fucked before.

It was every bit as primal as it was sensual. Like an alpha male finding his alpha female, Logan vigorously fucked his African Goddess with all his might, sending her into a mantra of moans. Logan had almost forgotten that pleasure like this existed. And for the first time in what felt like forever, his tortured mind was filled with bliss rather than pain.

"Logan! Oh Goddess I'm close! I'm so close!" she moaned, working her body against his with greater fervor as her orgasm built.

"Ugh, rah! Rah! Rah! Me too!" grunted Logan as he slammed his cock into her, savoring the tight feeling of her wet pussy around his hard dick.

Logan then reached around and firmly clenched her breasts, rubbing and teasing them as he kept working his penis inside her vagina. He was close to cumming, but he wanted to hold out. After all, it was only proper that a Goddess be allowed to cum before an animal.

"OH-OH-OH LOGAN I FEEL IT!" she cried out as she arched her back and succumbed to her burning climax.

"ERRR! ORORO!"

With one final thrust, Ororo's pussy clamped down on Logan's hard dick, coating his member in her hot juices as a wave of great pleasure inundated the former Goddess's mind and body. This got Logan to cum as well, his grip on her breasts tightening as he shot his load deep into Ororo's womb.

Once the rush subsided, Logan withdrew his cock from Ororo's dripping vagina. The feeling of such a strong release was nothing short of amazing. It was as if his whole being was eased by this wonderful experience. He could safely say that he hadn't felt this good in years...Decades even. But the former weather goddess wasn't done with him yet.

Once his grip on her loosened, Ororo spun around and captured his lips, drawing them into another messy, passionate kiss. Both their bodies were glistening with sweat as their hands aggressively roamed. Eventually, they found themselves back up against a wall, still hungry for more sex.

"Oh Logan. That was wonderful," gasped Ororo, still very aroused as she fervently ran her hands through the Wolverine's thick body hair.

"Damn Ro. I had no idea ya could be so...Passionate," he grinned as his member started to stiffen again.

"What can I say? Coming from Africa, I kind of developed a taste for strong men with a wild side."

"Oh, so you're sayin' that I'm a Wildman?"

"That...And much more, Logan," purred Ororo sensually.

Soon, their bodies began to grind up against one another as their sexual hunger overtook them. Ororo was surprised that he was ready for more so soon, but she sure as hell wasn't complaining. After all, she had a lot of pent up sexual energy to make up for after a long, torturous period of celibacy.

"You good to go again?" she asked, feeling his erection up against her naked skin.

"Healin' factor darlin'," he replied with a grin, "I'm always ready!"

As if to prove his point, Logan spun around so that now Ororo was the one pressed up against the wall. His hungry lips devoured hers as she snaked his arms around his strong upper body and wrapped her legs around his waist. And once she was pinned up against the wall, Logan reasserted his grip on her hips and guided his cock into her wet entrance.

"Oh Logan! Again! Again!" she begged him as she held on for another ride.

Her body bounced up and down as the strong, feral mutant thrust into her, letting out more of the same animal-like noises as before. His body eagerly pressed up against hers, feeling her sweat mix with his as their skin clashed in an erotic dance.

While Ororo held on for the ride, Logan eagerly traced his lips around her neck and along her cleavage, soaking up her intoxicating aroma. It motivated him to thrust harder, working his dick in and out of her at an ever increasing rate, letting her beautiful moans inundate his mind.

"Oh yes! Oh-ugh-yes! It's so good! Oh Logan! Ohhhhh!"

The feeling of her tight pussy around his hard cock kept driving Logan's raging lust as he fucked this woman thoroughly and passionately. All the vigor of their primal nature pushed the two new lovers to grand heights, putting in as much energy as they could muster.

The animal noises from Logan grew more fervent as they dragged it out, building up yet another powerful orgasm. They pushed themselves beyond their traditional limitations, not holding back as they let their wild nature take them into a world of bliss.

"Mmm...Ro. I'm close! I'm cummin' again!" growled Logan as he stepped up the pace of his rhythmic thrusts.

"Oh me too, Logan! Me too! I'm cuming soon! I'm cumming soon!"

As they moved their bodies together, the rush of their coming peak began to overtake them. They could both feel it as Ororo's cunt clamped down and Logan's dick throbbed in preparation for their release. Then, after one final thrust, it finally hit them.

"OHHHHH LOGAN!"

"RRRAHHHHHHH!"

Waves of intense pleasure inundated their bodies as the rush of another orgasm consumed them. Their fluids mixed together as they were forced to catch their breath. Meeting in another deep kiss, the fervor of their wild passion was still going strong as they savored this intense feeling.

Thanks to Logan's healing factor, it wasn't long before they went at it again. They had quite a bit to make up for in terms of pent up sexual energy and made a lot of progress in catching up. They did it in numerous positions, using the walls and consoles to fuck in wild, impassioned ways the likes of which neither of them had experienced before.

Logan's animal-like grunts and Ororo's sweet cries of bliss filled the observation deck in a symphony of ecstasy. It felt so good to finally let out all her pent up desires. It had been too long for the both of them, but they could safely say that it was worth the wait.

After numerous positions and mind numbing climaxes, the two lovers collapsed in front of the console, still naked as they sat with their backs rested against the powerful machines swimming in afterglow.

"So Jeannie was havin' trouble handlin' her sex drive and she turned to Scottie to help her out," summarized Logan after hearing the whole story from Ororo.

"Yes, she really was tense," said Ororo with a nod, feeling so content now that she felt like singing, "Scott was also deeply troubled as well, what with all the stress he handles on a daily basis."

"Guess it makes sense now," said Logan with a chuckle, "It explains why those two have been so damn chipper lately."

"Well can you blame them?" smiled Ororo, resting her head on Logan's shoulder.

"After what we just did...Hardly. But does this mean that those two are finally...Ya know, involved?"

Ororo let out a deep sigh. As happy as she was for Scott and Jean for finding happiness in the joys of the sensual, they remained oblivious to their feelings. She, along with the rest of the mansion, knew that they were crazy about one another. They just had problems getting it out. And at this rate, it was unclear whether or not they ever would.

"No...They're reluctant in that regard."

"You're kidding!" said Logan, surprised that they would continue with this whole 'just friends' crap.

"I'm afraid not, Logan. To them, it is merely a 'friends with benefits' deal. They're still working things out with their failed relationships. But frankly, I think they're just using that to stall. I still see the signs, but they just don't act on them."

"Teenagers...Go figure," shrugged Logan as he rested his head against the back of the console, "But still, havin' all this sex an' not getting into anything serious? How do they keep with that?"

"I suppose they're just being stubborn. You know Scott and Jean have a knack for suppressing their emotions."

"Sounds crazy if ya ask me. Then again, I ain't one to talk."

Ororo smiled as she turned to her feral friend. In all the years she had known him, she had never seen him like this. Hell, she didn't even know he could look this relaxed given his complicated history. But after what they just did, she could hardly blame him.

"So I guess this means you won't be too hard on Scott and Jean when you confront them about this?" she inquired, still concerned for them.

Logan took a moment to think about that, but he didn't need to think for very long as he turned back to face the beautiful goddess leaning up against him and smiled.

"Well now that I know the full story, there ain't much of a reason for me to be mad. And since they're adults now, I couldn't stop them if I tried. So I ain't gonna. I'm just gonna lay down some concerns, give em a few warning, and we'll leave it at that."

Ororo kept on smiling as she gave Logan a soft peck on his bearded cheek, which made him blush even though he tried poorly to hide it.

"Thank you, Logan. You really do have a heart, whether you believe it or not," she told him.

"Yeah, yeah...Just promise me ya won't spread the word."

"Oh don't worry. You have my word."

Logan responded by giving her a kiss on the cheek, an act that few people could have ever seen him doing. But having sex with a beautiful woman just brought sides in him that he didn't even know he had.

"Mmm...Wow. I must say, Logan, I've never seen you smile this much," commented Ororo as she played with his soft burly facial hair.

"Sex with a Goddess will do that to a guy," he replied with a grin.

Ororo couldn't help but laugh as she drew her fingers around Logan's wild hair in a sultry manner. She had no idea that something as simple as sex could make her feral friend act like this. But it was a nice change to see him so relaxed and at ease. And it was a sight she was eager to see more of.

"Hmm...Logan, could it be that the source to all your grumpiness and moodiness is simply because of a lack of sex?" she asked playfully.

"Can't say it ain't possible," he said, enjoying the warm feeling of her soft touch.

"Then I guess that means I'll just have to have sex with you more often to ensure that you remain balanced."

Logan wasn't one to smile much, but the thought of doing something like this with a woman like Ororo was just too much. He knew she was an amazing woman, but he had no idea she would bring out this kind of side to him. And he had to admit, being seduced by her in the observation deck definitely put her in a new light.

"Yer somethin' else, ya know that, Ro?" he smiled, tracing his fingers down her naked skin.

"And so are you," she said, giving him one last peck on the cheek before she got up and gathered up her clothes, "And if you want to get a taste of just what we can do to relieve that stress of yours, meet me in my room tomorrow night around eight."

Logan kept smiling as he watched the beautiful nude woman standing before him in all her glory as she prepared to make her leave. He knew as well as Ororo that they were turning a corner by doing something like this together, but it was a chance he was more than willing to take if it meant spending more moments like this with a beautiful goddess.

"I'll be there Ro. And don't worry about Scott and Jeannie. I'll take care of it. Ya have my word."

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

After finishing their 'session,' Scott and Jean powered down the program, gathered up their things, and changed back into their regular clothes, taking great care to hide their sexy attire from curious eyes. Once they returned to the upper levels they were relieved to see that everybody had mellowed for the evening. Bobby, Kurt, Ray, and Evan were glued to the TV and Kitty and Rogue were doing homework in the library.

The rest of the New Mutants were outside having an evening swim and it was assumed that the Professor was in his study. Logan and Ororo were nowhere in sight, but that was okay with Scott and Jean. It left the night clear for them to enjoy without having to go through further scrutiny.

"Some session, eh Slim?" grinned Jean as she walked up through the upper levels back towards their rooms.

"Definitely," said Scott, smiling in response, "We got a good workout, learned a few new things, and tested a new program. Not a bad session at all."

"Yeah, it was fun. Even us overachievers can have a kinky side as well."

"Oh yeah! But I doubt the others would ever believe that," said Scott, still feeling the effects of afterglow.

"It's probably better that they don't know anyways," added Jean as they turned the corner that led to Jean's room, "Hell, if they knew that we, Mr. and Mrs. Perfect, enjoy a little S&M ever now and then, they would..."

However, just as they turned the corner, they were met with a most unexpected presence...Logan. And upon seeing the look on his face, a feeling of anxiety fell over them since they probably reeked of sex.

"Heya Cyke...Jeannie," he said, casually leaning up against the wall.

"Uh...Logan," stammered Scott, scrambling for words, "Did you need something?"

"Actually yeah," he said as he approached the two weary teens with an ominous, yet familiar object in his hand, "Ya forgot something down in the Danger Room."

Then, much to their discomfort, he handed them the leather whip that they had used so extensively during their session. Immediately, their faces blush bright red. They didn't know what to say, do, or even think at this point. There was no telling what the volatile Wolverine would do to them now.

"Logan, it...It's not what you think!" exclaimed Jean as she swiped the whip from his hand.

"Yeah, I swear we..." but Logan didn't let Scott finish, for the sooner they got this out of the way, the sooner they could move on.

"Don't bother you two. I already know," he told them, much to their bewilderment.

"You know?" said Jean, her knees becoming weak, "But how?"

"Easy, I saw the whole thing. And I gotta say the dungeon scene was a bit much."

Both Scott and Jean mentally slapped themselves. They thought they had taken all the necessary precautions. Sure, they were suspicious, but they still didn't know. Now the one person they DIDN'T want to find out knew the truth. And worse, he caught them in the act without them knowing it.

"Look, before ya say anything, I promise ya I won't tell the others," said Logan, much to their surprise, "What ya do in yer private time should stay private...Even if I did happen to catch you. And no, I ain't mad. Not to say I wasn't, but now I know the full story."

"Oh. Then I take it you talked to Ororo," said Jean, still feeling very embarrassed that somebody had caught them in the act.

"Yep," he said, unable to keep himself from grinning, "She filled me in. Told me all about this 'friends with benefits' deal ya got goin' on. And while I can't say I understand yer reasons, I understand yer motives. You two probably deal with more stress around here than anybody else, so I can't say I blame ya for wanting a release from it all."

This was definitely a shocker for Scott and Jean, who had come to know Logan so well over the years since he helped raise them and honestly they were a little freaked out. And it wasn't just that Logan knew and wasn't going nuts. It was that he was actually smiling as if he was amused by their reactions.

"So you're not going to disembowel me?" said Scott, still worried that he would punish them for their indiscretions.

"Now why would I do that?" he chuckled, "It's a simple deal, you two. As long as ya don't hurt each other or affect the way ya handle school and sessions, then I ain't got a reason to stop ya. Just promise me you'll be more careful about leavin' yer shit around. And whatever ya do with this crazy deal of yours, just make sure ya keep satisfyin' one another and we'll call it even. We clear?"

It took a moment for Scott and Jean to process. Part of them was still afraid that Logan would go into berserker mode, but he just stood there looking both serious and amused at the position he had them in. Of all the people they wanted to keep their affair from, Logan was tops on their list. Yet here he was, talking to them as if it wasn't a big deal.

His terms were easy, his mood was calm, and it seemed as though they had nothing to fear. Logan knew, and he was okay with it. What choice did they have other than to accept it and leave it at that?

"Yeah, we're clear," said Jean.

"Crystal clear," affirmed Scott.

"Good," he nodded as he turned back down the hall, "Later you two. We're done."

As he left the two bewildered teens to process what had just happened, he couldn't help but laugh. This was definitely one of those priceless moments that he wanted to commit to memory. While under normal circumstances he would have given them intense heat for this shit, his chat with Ororo and the 'stress relief' they shared changed all that.

It was a good feeling. He knew that, Ororo knew that, and Scott and Jean knew that. And if that's what they wanted to do in order to keep themselves balanced in this crazy world, then so be it. In the meantime, he had a certain African Goddess that he was looking forward spend some time with.

"Wow. That was weird," said Scott, still dazed at what had just happened.

"Yeah, I can't believe he just...I mean, I thought he was going to ground us, punish us, or just plain yell at us," said Jean, shaking her head in disbelief.

"And I thought he'd castrate me for sure."

"Well let's be thankful that he didn't," she said with a grin, taking her lover's hand and giving it a reassuring squeeze, "Besides, he made it clear that if we're going to keep doing this, you have to satisfy me and I have to satisfy you."

"I think we can manage that," said Scott with a grin, finally breathing a sigh of relief, "And look on the bright side, now we don't have to keep hiding it from Logan anymore."

"I know. Guess that just leaves the others to worry about."

"Yeah, but we'll manage. I know we will," said Scott confidently, "But I just can't get over it. What do you think got into him? Since when does Logan ever smile like that?"

"Hmm..." said Jean, who definitely had her suspicions, "Can't say. Maybe he finally got a little relief as well. Remember how we were after our first time?"

"Oh yeah, I remember," said Scott with a smile, "But Logan? You really think he got laid?"

"Can't say," shrugged Jean, "But personally, I hope so. Because as long as he's getting some action, that leaves us with plenty of time for ourselves."

"Ourselves...Yeah, I can definitely see some benefits to that," said Scott, snaking his arms around her waist.

"You know it, Slim."

With one final peck on the cheek, the two lovers retreated to their rooms, glad to have overcome this first major challenge. Now that Logan knew and was comfortable with it, they could rest a little easier. And as long as Ororo kept Logan balanced, then they had nothing to fear. It had been a major challenge for the both of them and with the others still suspicious, they still had plenty more ahead of them.
