Continuance of Elf bound fic thingy...

Logan knelt down over the table and lined up his shot. He gave a hard knock to the cue ball, harder than necassary even for breaking, and watched as the group burst up and thumped around the table. Not one of them sunk. Growling in irritation he chalked up his stick and walked around the table angling for a shot. He'd been at it for awhile now, this and other activities to try and ease his anger ever since he'd found Kitty's note, leaving a wake of destruction behind.

His room where he'd found her paper was a shambles, the garage where he'd gone and found his bike missing one tire in a show she wanted him to stay was a wreck, and the hallway just outside her door was even a bit messed up. It took everything for him too stay outside the door and not go tearing into her or Kurt's room. In fact the Danger room had paid much the price for that's where he'd headed after halting himself at her door. From there it was the kitchen, the patio and now the rec room. She'd gotten back with Kurt somewhere between here and his mad pacing outside but he'd stayed away. For several reasons, for one he wasn't entirely as forgiving of Kurt as Kitty would be, especially after how much danger she'd put herself into tonight to save him.

He warned her, reminded her constantly of how much she needed to be careful. If something had happened tonite to her or the baby...he didn't want to think about it. Instead he tried to calm down and took a shot at the nine ball. And knocked it off the table. Nope, this didn't seem to be working either.

He'd gotten the patio mostly straightened and picked up a good deal in the kitchen before setting about preparing something for Kitty.

He found her in the library, noting that she hadn't taken either of his suggestions but not dwelling on it. Walking up behind her he presented the plate of fruit and a few slices of cheese along with a glass of kool-aid. "Here darlin...thought a snack might help keep you up an figured you were sick of milk..." He smiled at her, the gesture a lot easier and this time true as he'd finally managed to bring himself together.

And she looked up, warmth in her smile as she set teh plate on a space near teh computer and accepte tdh eglass with a cry of joy. Yes, sick of milk. Very sick.

Then she looked almost nervously up at him, fidgeting slightly, not a common thing for Kit. SHe was more the detahly still type...

"Logan...I...want to ask you something..."

[adamantine-past.livejournal.com]

He leaned beside her against her chair, eyes roaming around the computer and desk but not really seeing what was there. Just more a casual thing as he tried to gain time beside her.

His eyes fell on her when he noticed her fidgeting and her hesitant question, "Sure darlin, go ahead." He nodded trying to urge her on to whatever she had on her mind.

She drew a deep breath and took his hand, drawing it over her houlder so she coudl lay a kiss on his knuckles and leaned her head back against him "Logan, will you marry me? I have a ring in my room....if you want me to go get it first..."

And he froze. Went stark still beside her, the shock going so far as to make his breath catch and his hand tighten in hers.

His mind raced trying to catch up and work through the shock. He stared at her and his mouth worked awhile before finally managing, "Why?"

Then he blinked and shook his head, trying to snap out of it, "I mean...yes, I will...I want too but...are you sure? I mean...me...are you sure me?"

He couldn't believe it. One that she had just proposed to him and two how badly he was blowing it.

[twisted-kit.livejournal.com]

She blinked, amazed that he seemed so...blown away. Logan losing coherent speech....unexpected.

"Why? Because I love and I refuse to live without you if you'll let me. Yes, I"m sure, I have been for some time and I know that if I didn't ask you'd talk yourself out of it."

[adamantine-past.livejournal.com]

He finally stopped his babbling and cleared his throat. "Yeah, I...I was and that's pretty much what happened. I just, wasn't sure if you'd..."

He took a breath and shook his head, regaining composure as much as possible and letting what he was trying to say go. Instead taking her hand and giving a firm nod, "Yes darlin, if yer havin me than I sure as hell ain't gonna say no." And to finalize it he bent down and kissed her.

[twisted-kit.livejournal.com]

After the kiss she found herself grinning stupidly. "Well..that's good. It would have been kind of embarassing if I ended up scaring you off..." now she was babbling, but hey, she was happy.

In fact, so much happiness after so much fear earlier probably quaified as being in shock...

Kit...married. To Logan.

And they'd be a family, good parents...

"I love you" she managed through the smiling.

[adamantine-past.livejournal.com]

He tried to compare this to her telling him about the baby to determine which had been more shocking. But to be honest he'd been near dumbfounded then too and couldn't quite remember all of what was said. But he did remember 'I love you,' and as he heard it again he grinned.

"Yeah, I love you too."

[twisted-kit.livejournal.com]

"Good" yep, about covered it. She just happily leaned back against him, glad that now there was going to be a real binding between them. Something to prove that they weren't going to walk out on each other...

[adamantine-past.livejournal.com]

And he stood there, being her support as she leaned back. This was going to be something. But she had asked, and that meant she wanted him right? Accepted him. Of course it did.

Determined not to let doubt ruin the moment he shoved all thoughts aside and focused on just her here with him and the new promise they'd just made.
