Rebekah
Rebekah sat with Jono basically all night, hoping he'd wake up soon and be ok.
It was her fault he was knocked out, after all.
Jonothon
Jonothon swam upwards through a sea of unconsciousness, head pounding in protest. He groaned.
"Oh, me 'ead..."
Rebekah
"Ah!"
Rebekah winced and shook her head slightly.
Jonothon
"Yer alright, luv?" JOnothon inquired anxiously.
She was back...thank god.
Rebekah
Rebekah grabbed her head and breathed heavily.
Oh God, it hurt...
Jonothon & Hank
"Dr McCoy!"
"What seems to be the problem?" Hank inquired as he entered the room.
Rebekah
Rebekah got up quickly, knocking her chair over in her hurry to get away from Jono.
"Ah!"
Jonothon & Hank
Jonothon froze and stared at her, unwilling to say another word.
Hank frowned.
"The pain is occuring when he speaks?"
Rebekah
"Yes."
Rebekah held her head, shoulders shaking slightly.
Hank
"Oh my stars and garters," Hank murmured.
"I think we should contact the professor now."
He moved away to call Xavier.
Rebekah
Rebekah stepped over to Jono and touched his face lightly.
"I'm sorry, I can't..."
She kissed his cheek.
Jonothon & Hank
Jonothon kissed her gently. Wishing he could tell her what he wanted to. Ask her what had happened. How she was.
Hank looked up.
"The professor will see you now, Rebekah."
Rebekah
Rebekah ran a hand through Jono's hair, then pressed a quick kiss to his forehead.
"I love you," she said softly.
She turned and went upstairs to the professor.
Jonothon & Xavier
Jonothon watched her go, fingers dancing across his palm to tell her the same thing, even if she wasn't watching.
Xavier looked up from his desk.
"Come in, Rebekah."
Rebekah
Rebekah stepped into his office and sat down in the seat, still rubbing her head.
Xavier
"I am assuming this has only started since you returned from...wherever it was exactly you were taken to?" Xavier asked calmly.
Rebekah
"Oui... the King took me... he did something, because it hurt will I was there."
Rebekah looked at her feet.
Xavier
"If you will allow me..." Xavier said slowly, looking at her.
"I would like to see what the extent of the damage is."
Rebekah
Rebekah nodded.
"Please."
Xavier
Xavier slowly and gently slid into her mind. He noticed the shields, even the normal shields people instinctively had, were completely torn down. He started to repair them slowly.
Rebekah
Rebekah winced slightly, breathing deeply through her nose.
Xavier
His work seeming complete, Xavier looked around.
"Is that better?"
Rebekah
Rebekah nodded slowly.
"It still stings a little..."
Xavier
"Here, see what I did? You must finish it. No one knows your mind as well as you do."
Xavier showed her the way to healing her mind.
Rebekah
Rebekah concentrated for a moment, then slid up the res of her shields.
"Merci, Professor."
Xavier
"You're welcome, Rebekah," Xavier said, withdrawing completely from her mind.
"I think a certain countryman of mine in the medlabs wishes to see you."
Rebekah
Rebekah stood up, and headed back down to the medlabs.
"Jono?"
Jonothon
Jonothon got off his bed and walked quickly over to her, putting his arms around her waist and kissing her hard.
Rebekah
Rebekah kissed him back.
"Hello."
Jonothon
Jonothon held her tight for a few more moments.
"'Lo."
Rebekah
Rebekah smiled, and kissed his cheek.
"Sorry about zat scare."
Jonothon
"So, you're alright then?"
Jonothon nuzzled her neck.
Rebekah
Rebekah smiled and nodded.
"Oui, ze professor did help zat."
Jonothon
"My room so we can talk?"
Jonothon smoothed his hands down her back gently.
Rebekah
"Oui."
Rebekah took his hand, and started to lead him upstairs.
Jonothon
Jonothon followed her upstairs and they settled on the bed in each other's arms.
"Wot happened, luv?"
Rebekah
"I am not exactly sure..."
Rebekah rested her head on his chest.
"I know I was with ze King at one stage, but I do not know how I got zere."
Jonothon
"He didn't touch yer?"
Jonothon kissed the top of her head, fingers tightening slightly in anger.
Rebekah
"He did not get ze chance."
Rebekah's fingers touched the bruises on her neck.
"I just remember talking to my father and zen it is all blank."
Jonothon
"Betcher father hired him."
Jonothon felt rage flare.
"He wants wot your nan left yer."
Rebekah
Rebekah touched his arm gently.
"Jono, please don't... it's not worth getting angry over."
Jonothon
"You are worth getting angry over."
Jonothon kissed her.
"Yer worth dying for."
Rebekah
Rebekah kissed him back, trailing her fingers lightly over his arms.
"Jono..."
She blushed and looked away.
Jonothon
"I love yer, Bek."
Jonothon held her gently.
Rebekah
"I love you too, Jono."
Rebekah smiled and sighed in contentment.
Jonothon
Jonothon brushed a kiss over her head and held her as she fell asleep. He had to find some way to make that bastard pay. Both of those bastards.
