“Jubilee, you ever talk her into going to a bar again, alone, and dressed like that, I’ll rip you to shreds. You got that?”
Jubes regarded Logan with a cool eye. She’d heard all about the scene from last night. Marie had sought her out first thing this morning and cried her eyes out on her friend’s shoulder.
“You might want to reconsider just who it is you want to be ripping to shreds, Logan. Ever look in the mirror? And I won’t be talking her into anything. She left this morning.” With practiced nonchalance, Jubilee began to turn away. She didn’t get very far. An iron hard grip on her upper arm yanked her around to face him.
“Whaddaya mean, she left?”
“What do you think I mean?” She pointedly looked at the too-tight hand on her arm. “You wanna let go? That kinda hurts.” Actually, it hurt like a bitch but she wasn’t about to Log Logan have the satisfaction of knowing that.
Logan at least had the good grace to look guilty. He let her go, even mumbling out an apology of sorts, something that Jubes never thought she’d hear in a million years. Man, he must be pretty out of it. Inwardly, she laughed. God knows, the son of a bitch deserved it. Why Marie thought the sun rose and set on this man, Jubes just didn’t get. He kept people at bay with snarling intimidation and even if the man was drop-dead gorgeous, he scared everyone so badly that Jubilee wondered how Marie could see past that. Well, no accounting for love, she supposed. Too bad the road warrior here didn’t have a freaking clue.
“Where did she go?” What if she never came back? Panic started to set in.
“Jesus, Wolvie, get a clue, would ya? If she wanted you to know that, she would’ve told you where she was going. And she didn’t. Add it up.” With that, she swept out of the room.
Logan stood there for a moment, staring blankly at surroundings he didn’t even see.
He went after Jubilee.
Jubes had just opened her car door when a hand appeared over her shoulder, slamming the door shut. She rolled her eyes. She might’ve known he wouldn’t let this go.
“Logan, let me fill you in on some things.” She turned around and ran her hands up and down his chest. It made him decidedly uncomfortable. The kids at the school were off limits in his book. Not that all of them were ‘kids’ any longer. Not by a fuckin’ long shot.
Jubilee almost laughed at his unease. Scary or not, she had to wonder what he was like in bed. He must be just all kinds of incredible. Any man that looked and carried himself like Logan did turned heads, not all of it voluntary. He was mtic.tic. Until he opened his mouth.
“Marie needs you to back off. She’s got a life, let her live it. She’s not isolated from the world anymore and it’s high time she got to experience some of it.”
“Back off?” He thought for a second. “For how long?”
Jubes sputtered. “How long? Logan, you just don’t get it! God knows why, but she loves you.” He visibly flinched. “And if you’re not willing to see that, or accept it, then you have to let her go.” The situation was so freaking obvious! How could Logan be such an idiot about this?
He took a step back, running a hand thru his hair. “I – can’t. I just can’t.”
Jubilee frowned. Logan seemed – uncertain. She’d never seen him like this. For the first time, it occurred to her that his gruff don’t-fuck-with-me exterior was just that, an exterior. It was all an act. She wondered just what went on behind those dark intense eyes of his. Maybe Logan was a far more complicated man than she’d ever given him credit for.
“Can’t what? Let her go? Or believe that she cares for you?”
He looked away.
Well, well. Look at that. The big bad Wolverine had some buttons to push. Jubes decided to push them all.
“She’s got an apartment in the city.” Bingo. He winced. “She’s had it lined up for quite a while.” Oooh, another bingo. His eyes widened in disbelief. “Think she’s going to wait forever for you to get a clue? Face it, Logan. Marie is moving on without you.” Home run. That one hurt him.
Jubes watched his darting eyes, his mind obviously racing with thoughts he didn’t want to be having. And son of a bitch if he didn’t ‘ask’. Not order, not demand – he asked.
“Take me there? That’s where you’re goin’, ain’t it?”
Jubilee twisted her keys in her hand, suddenly unsure of herself. “Geeze, I dunno, Wolvie….”
“Please?”
Jubes nearly dropped her keys. She looked him over. A vulnerable Logan wasn’t something she’d ever seen before and reluctantly, her heart melted a bit. He’d find out where Marie’s place was one way or another. And maybe it was best they get this straightened out from the get go. Otherwise, Marie would forever be looking over her shoulder wondering when he would unexpectedly show up on her doorstep.
“Ok. Ok, Logan, you got yourself a ride. But you better listen to the things she tells you. This is a two-way deal here. Got it?”
“In one.”
In spite of herself, Jubes smiled at him. She took his arm and turned again to her car.
“Come on, ya big baby. Climb in.”
“Damnit, Jubilee!” Marie glared at her friend. Logan was standing right behind her. “You weren’t to tell anyone, not ANYONE.” Especially Logan. And yet, here he was.
Infuriated, she watched the both of them sidle past her into her apartment. She looked out the open door. She looked at her two visitors. “Well, come right on in.” She slammed the door.
