Chapter 35: (A new beginning.)
Chapter thirty five:
Jean Grey was sporting a nasty bruise when we got back to New York. Scott Summers eyes popped out of his head once we entered the house. He then ran over and hugged Jean Grey.
"Jean. What happened?" Said Scott Summers.
"Scott, it's nothing." Replied Jean Grey.
"What do you mean nothing? Jean, someone hit you! Why did they hit you?" Said Scott Summers.
"She got punched in the face." I replied and Jean Grey just looked at me whenever I said that.
"Jean and I had to get something for Tony Stark. This guy kept trying to ask me out and wouldn't leave me alone until I said yes. Jean was trying to help out and told the guy to leave, he didn't like it and punched her. It's my fault Jean got hurt." I said.
"Well, aren't you the hero Jean?" Replied Scott Summers.
"Oh, um, it was nothing. The guy wouldn't leave her alone, I had to do something." Said Jean Grey.
"You did the right thing. Ok, go upstairs. I'll bring you a ice pack." Replied Scott Summers.
Jean Grey and I nodded before going to her room.
"Thanks." Said Jean Grey as I shut the door.
"Don't mention it. Steve Rodgers is not here to cover your ass, so it's the least I can do." I replied.
I then looked down at phone. I only had a few hours left before I had to go back to Sokovia.
"I guess, I'll leave you to it." I said before walking towards the door.
"Will I see you again Travis?" Replied Jean Grey.
I knew that I should tell her no. As I was trying to be honest with her. But I should I care anyway?
Because she'll be sad and I don't want that.
"Take care, Jean." I said before opening up the door and left.
(Sometime later.)
Since Steve Rodgers and them escaped the Raft, which might have turned out to be good. I had to leave. I didn't sign the accord's so I was going to go back to Sokovia where I would be safe.
I then heard a knock on the door before I opened it. Jean Grey was standing on the other side of it with her hands behind her back.
"Travis. Mind if I come in?" Said Jean Grey.
I slowly nodded before opening the door. Jean Grey made her way in and spun around to get a good look at the place.
"I guess this is it." I replied.
"I guess so. You should have signed it, you know? Although Steve Rodgers probably would have busted you out of the Raft. But you'll be safe here Travis." Said Jean Grey.
"Pietro and I are already a fugitive on the run Carol. And that's not the life I really want to have. But I knew I had to go back to Sokovia eventually." I replied.
"Do you really want to stay here?" Said Jean Grey.
"No. But I don't really have much of a choice." I replied.
"Or do you?" Said Jean Grey and I just gave her a concerned look.
"What's this?" I replied before opening up the envelope.
"Technically, Travis Maximoff had to return to Sokovia. As far as everyone else knows, he as." Said Jean Grey.
New passports, new social security numbers, basically everything Pietro and I needed to stay in the United States.
"Jean." I replied. I can't believe she did that for me.
Jean Grey just smiled. "Welcome to the United States, Travis Maximoff." Said Jean Grey before she began to kiss me long and passionately on the lips.
I then wrapped my arms around her red ponytail and waist to further deepen the kissing between us.
